Chapter 270: Getting Married in Three Days

"It has indeed sprouted. Can it be planted? Doesn't it require seeds?"

Jiang Shoujia was very surprised.

He took the potato and looked at it left and right.

"No need, Grandpa, these are the seeds." Jiang Fubao answered him in a baby voice.

"Okay, don't sell the potatoes for the next few days. Save them all for sprouting and seed."

Zhang Jinlan didn't think much about it. According to her granddaughter, the immortals had spoken.

So what is she hesitating about?

What the immortals said is absolutely correct.

"Fubao, did the immortal tell us when is the best time to plant potatoes?" Zhang Jinlan suddenly remembered something and asked again.

"Well, I told you, you can plant it after the Chinese New Year, or you can plant it after the autumn harvest. Well, if it's fast, it will be ripe in more than two months."

While Jiang Fubao was talking, her hands and feet were not idle. She hung on her grandmother's legs like a monkey, swaying.

"Oh, that's great. After the brown rice is harvested, we can plant potatoes. It won't delay anything. Previously, after the autumn harvest, we could only plant some cabbages in the fields. Now we can plant potatoes instead."

Zhang Jinlan couldn't help but clapped her hands.

After saying this.

Jiang Fubao ran to find his mother.

Picked up by her mother, she lay on her back in her mother's arms, looking at the starry sky.

In my ears are the sounds of people chatting and fighting at home.

Seeing her daughter's eyelids drooping, Zhang Yanzi gently patted her little butt with her hand.

Again and again.

Jiang Fubao was photographed falling asleep.

Time flies, and it’s two days later.

Widow Liu and her son, who had completed their engagement with Sun's family, returned to Jiangjia Village with joyful faces.

"What? Your Zhuzi is getting married the day after tomorrow? Why are you in such a hurry?" Wang Xiulian said in surprise.

She was making wild guesses in her mind.

Could it be that Widow Liu's daughter-in-law was pregnant? She couldn't keep it a secret anymore?

Saying this is offensive.

Wang Xiulian didn't dare to say anything.

"My daughter-in-law's brother has already found a girl he likes. The girl's family thinks Xiaotao is too late to get married, and they want her to get married within three days. But, I'm also eager for her to get married soon. The autumn harvest is only half a month away, and the family is really short of people to do the work."

There was no trace of unhappiness on Widow Liu's face.

If she wasn't afraid of losing face, she would have wanted to marry Xiaotao today.

After the daughter got married, all the housework fell on her and her son.

While her son worked on the farm, she did the laundry, cooking and cleaning, and she was so tired that her back and waist ached every day.

She can rest once her daughter-in-law comes in.

Jiang Zhuzi was even happier. All the way back from Sunjia Village, he was staggering, his eyes were dull, and no one knew what was going on in his mind.

In the evening, Ma Chunxia and Wang Taohua came to deliver bamboo tubes and bamboo sticks.

Tell this to Zhang Jinlan.

The two of them are now her lackeys and another pair of eyes she has planted in the village.

"What? Five taels of silver as a betrothal gift? Is this widow Liu trying to find a phoenix for her son Zhu?"

Zhang Jinlan took a breath of cool air.

exclaimed.

Five taels of silver is enough to marry the daughter of a small landlord.

In the village, two taels of silver is considered a high bride price.

Five taels!

Oh my god, this is simply unheard of.

The last time I was so shocked was when I heard that Widow Liu married off her daughter Yadan and received a dowry of three taels of silver.

"That's right. Everyone in the village is talking about it today. It's five taels. Due to the drought in recent years, most families can't even save two taels in a year. Five taels would take at least three years for a whole family to save. And they just gave it away like this. I don't know what dowry Zhuzi's wife will bring."

Ma Chunxia grinned and shook her head slightly.

Sighed.

"You'll find out the day after tomorrow when we go to Widow Liu's house for a feast."

As Wang Taohua spoke, she took out the bamboo sticks from the bamboo basket and asked Jiang Dahe to count them.

The villagers held a banquet.

As long as we're not the kind of people who never see each other again.

Basically everyone goes.

Jiang Shoujia became the clan leader and village chief, so he had to give face and attend the wedding of Jiang Zhuzi from widow Liu's family.

Jiang Fubao, who was eavesdropping on the side, really wanted to go.

Unfortunately, the shop can't leave her.

If she doesn't go to the shop.

Who took something out of space?

Jiang Fubao's big eyes rolled around.

She suddenly glanced at her fifth brother who was eating a cucumber next to her.

An idea suddenly came to my mind.

"Fifth brother, come here." Jiang Fubao leaned close to Jiang Tongtu's ear and said.

"What's wrong?" Jiang Tongtu's mouth was full of cucumbers and his speech was a little slurred. He looked at his sister in confusion.

"I have some delicious food here, do you want to try it?" These words attracted Jiang Tongtu over. The two of them went into the house together. Jiang Fubao took out a finger-sized piece of candy from the box on the table and handed it to Jiang Tongtu.

"Fifth brother, this is the maltose that grandma bought for me. I haven't finished it yet. I'll give it to you."

The space was full of delicious food, but the ordinary-tasting maltose cubes did not appeal to Jiang Fubao's stomach at all.

So much so that all the children in the Jiang family finished eating the maltose.

Only hers was still in the box.

The temperature is too high and the surface of the maltose block feels a bit sticky.

Jiang Tongtu, however, didn't mind at all.

His eyes widened and became brighter.

"Sister, you are so kind. If anyone dares to bully you in the future, I will beat him to death."

Jiang Tongtu quickly swallowed the cucumber in his mouth and then licked a piece of maltose.

It was so sweet that he smiled unconsciously.

His eyes narrowed into slits.

"But, Fifth Brother, you have to do me a favor. This is not for free." Jiang Fubao saw that he had put the food in his mouth, then he continued to speak.

"Uh, what help? Just tell me, as long as you don't ask me to eat shit, I'll help you." Jiang Tongtu waved his hand indifferently.

"The day after tomorrow, if Grandpa goes to Widow Liu's house for a feast, you must go with him and tell me everything that happened that day. Tell me in detail."

Listening to Ma Chunxia and Wang Taohua's gossip was not as satisfying as letting my fifth brother recount the scene of that day.

Among the brothers, the fifth brother is the most greedy and the most shameless.

Grandpa is having a banquet the day after tomorrow, and he will definitely go alone.

But if the fifth brother is too shameless, grandpa will probably get annoyed and take him along.

Jiang Fubao knows the personalities of everyone in his family very well.

"Okay, okay. I will complete the task." Jiang Tongtu nodded indifferently. He thought it was no big deal.

It turned out to be a banquet.

Even if his sister didn't tell him, he would go.

One night passed.

The sun quietly climbed to the roof.

Jiang Fubao was already in the backyard of Jiang's snack shop.

Today is my second brother's day off.

His uncle had gone to the school to pick him up. It was hot and he felt exhausted. Jiang Fubao lay in the recliner and squinted his eyes.

She was ready to take a nap.

The door to the backyard of the shop was open.

After a while, three people came in.

There are exactly three of them.

Jiang Yahe had already returned to his seat and went to the front of the shop to pick up a rag to entertain the guests.
