Sun Daba was inspired by Tang Xiaomei's crying.
He held Tang Xiaomei's hand and went home.
Sun Laoxi and his wife were really at home. There was a war at the border, and the relief food stopped.
Both Sun Laoxi and Sun Daba were assigned to the patrol team by the village head. She had to go up the mountain to dig vegetables every day, and sometimes she could pick up some mushrooms.
I begged for money from everyone and finally planted the land, but the corn will not be harvested until autumn.
Now I can only eat wild vegetables every day, and my stomach rumbles every day.
Just as I was sitting on the kang and worrying, Sun Daba came in holding Tang Xiaomei's hand.
When Sun Daba saw his mother, he shrank his neck, then straightened it out again:
"Mom, Xiaomei got pregnant with my child and had a miscarriage. She treated me so well, I can't let her down.
I want to get engaged to Xiaomei. In this life, I will not marry anyone but Xiaomei."
Sun Daba’s mother was dumbfounded. Her son had never disobeyed her in the past twenty years. What happened now?
"What did you say? You must marry Tang Xiaomei? Say it again for me to hear."
Daba's mother got down from the ground and bent down to pick up the shoes on the ground. She didn't want to put them on, but wanted to beat Sun Daba with the soles of her shoes.
Sun Daba had seen his mother do this too many times since he was a child. He grabbed Tang Xiaomei and ran away.
Tang Xiaomei fell to the ground with all her strength, she refused to run away.
After she ran away, people in Dawa Village said that she took the initiative to come to the house and was beaten away by Sun Daba's mother.
Everyone had to treat her as a joke.
Seeing Tang Xiaomei like this, Sun Daba stopped running. He straightened his neck and pulled Tang Xiaomei into the house.
To enter the house, one had to pass through the kitchen first. Seeing the kitchen knife on the chopping board, Sun Daba picked it up.
Sun Daba ran away, and Daba's mother, with her years of experience, knew very well that she could not catch up with him.
After throwing away his shoes and sitting down on the kang, Sun Dabala came in again, bringing Tang Xiaomei with him, with a kitchen knife in his hand.
Daba’s mother looked at Sun Daba and said, “Oh, you didn’t run too far this time, you seem to be much braver.
What? You want to chop me with a kitchen knife? Come, chop it for you. If you chop it to death, you won’t have to go up the mountain to dig wild vegetables every day.
However, this knife hasn't been used to cut anything for a while and it's rusted, so you'll have to use some force to cut it.
I'm also living this hopeless life—"
Before he could finish his words, Sun Daba put the kitchen knife in his hand on his own neck.
"Mom, if you don't agree to my marriage with Xiaomei, I will kill myself.
I have done something wrong, and I can't just put on my pants and admit it. Am I still a man?
Our ancestors for eight generations have been scolded once, and then we have to scold them again.”
Sun Laoxi, who was squatting in the corner picking wild vegetables, slowly stood up and the wild vegetables in his hands fell to the ground.
Oh my god! Is this bus going to turn upside down?
Sun Daba glanced at the dazed Sun Laoxi and said, "Dad, you have been bullied by my mom all your life.
Today, my son will set an example for you. We can’t afford to live, but we can at least afford to die, right? "
After she finished speaking, Daban's mother turned her lower lip far out, with a look of contempt on her face.
How could she not know what kind of people they were doing over the years? Who were they trying to scare?
Before she could say anything, her son, Sun Daba, whom she thought she knew well, took action and cut into his neck with the rusty kitchen knife.
The blood flowed down the neck that was as thin as a bamboo tube, so bright red and so eye-catching.
"Bus."
Daba's parents and Tang Xiaomei shouted at the same time.
"Daba, stop it now. I'm leaving. I don't want to be engaged to you anymore. I'd rather live alone for the rest of my life than have you lose your life for me."
After Tang Xiaomei finished speaking, she burst into tears.
"Xiao Mei, don't cry, if this works out, we'll be a living couple, if this doesn't work out, we'll be a dead couple.
Life and death are the end of it."
At this moment, Sun Daba's rebelliousness was aroused by himself. He only felt a comfort he had never felt before, and did not feel any pain at all.
He even used a little more force on the knife in his hand and cut deeper.
"Daba, stop it."
Yizhishan was panicked this time. He hurriedly got down to the ground, and without picking up the shoes or hitting the man, he came over to snatch the knife from Sun Daba's hand.
Sun Daba hid and leaned his back against the west wall: "Mom, come over here, I will cut in first, cut off your neck, and cut off your head for you."
A mountain was so frightened that its nose and tears started to flow down:
"Da Ba, I agree. I will never stop you again. You can get engaged to whoever you want."
"Besides Xiaomei, is there any other girl in the surrounding villages who would like me?"
Sun Daba is quite self-aware: "It's not easy for Xiaomei to like me, but you still try to stop her.
If you dare to stop me again, I will give your life back to you."
Daban's mother cried like a tearful person. The soles of shoes worn by her son for so many years could no longer scare him.
It really fits the old saying that a grown-up son is no longer under the control of his mother. Never mind, I agreed.
A mountain took a long time to wipe the tears off its face:
"I agree, but let me be frank with you. We don't even have a penny right now.
Tang Xiaomei, go back and tell your mother that my family is extremely poor.
It was you who insisted on marrying my daughter. For the sake of my son, I don't object to this marriage, but I won't give any betrothal gifts.
If you want to get married, just come here with your luggage."
After hearing his mother's words, the kitchen knife in Sun Daba's hand fell to the ground with a clang, almost hitting Sun Laoxi's foot.
Sun Laoxi was so scared that he jumped back.
More blood flowed down Sun Daba's neck. Daba's mother got down from the ground, picked up an old piece of clothing on the kang, and wanted to wrap Sun Daba's neck.
It's too high for her to reach.
Daba Niang kicked Sun Daba's leg and said, "Squat down."
Sun Daba hurriedly squatted down, and the wound was bandaged.
His heroic spirit had not yet worn off, and he looked at Tang Xiaomei and said, "Let's go to your house.
Hold the kitchen knife, and if your mother disagrees, you can cut your throat in front of her."
At this critical juncture, Tang Xiaomei did not hesitate. She picked up the kitchen knife, and the two of them went out and headed for Dahe Village.
The two villages were very close, and in just fifteen minutes, the man returned home.
How could Geng Zhenlan not agree? She knew very well that if Sun Daba insisted on not marrying Tang Xiaomei, Tang Xiaomei would never be able to get married.
After all, if you lose your reputation, you will also lose your marketability.
There is no betrothal gift, and she has to go with her luggage. Hearing what Daban Niang said, Geng Zhenlan sighed. This is the price a girl pays for not respecting herself.
In fact, at any time, as long as a girl is not married, she must be pure and innocent and must not sleep with a man.
As long as you sleep with them, if you meet a bad in-law, you will be easily controlled by them, and they will be controlled for your whole life.
But Geng Zhenlan couldn't bear to let Tang Xiaomei carry the bag over by herself.
After thinking about it, she remembered one thing. When the incident between Tang Xiaomei and Geng Feng just happened, Geng Zhenhai once said that he would compensate them with one hundred taels of silver.
Geng Zhenlan went to Geng Zhenhai's house yesterday morning to take one hundred taels of silver.
As a result, before he could even say anything, he was pushed out by Ye Meizi.
Then Geng Zhenlan went to Sun Daba's house and sat on the edge of the kang to negotiate terms with Sun Daba's mother.
In the end, both sides made a concession: there was no betrothal gift, but there had to be an engagement process to let everyone in Dawa Village know that Tang Xiaomei and Sun Daba were married in a formal ceremony.
