Chapter 71 Marriage 2

On the day my sister-in-law moved in, grandma gave her ten eggs.

At first Ma Chunxia was reluctant to accept him, saying that he was her neighbor and it wouldn't be a big deal if she stayed there for a few days.

Grandma refused to listen, and after several refusals, she reluctantly accepted it.

The door next door was open.

There was no one in the yard.

Jiang Fubao walked straight to the main room.

She saw her future sister-in-law sitting on a chair, and Ma Chunxia was cutting noodles for her with a rope.

In ancient times, weddings were held at night, which can also be understood as weddings, so after worshipping heaven and earth, the family would enter the bridal chamber.

But poor people cannot afford to light oil lamps and candles.

What to do.

They changed the worship service to noon.

After the worship, the man went to the banquet to entertain the guests, while the woman sat alone on the bed in the bridal chamber, waiting patiently.

I couldn't eat or drink until night.

This is the husband's family's disguised way of taming the new daughter-in-law, in order to test whether she has patience.

Jiang Fubao heard these things under the big tree at the entrance of the village.

Not only could the peasants not afford oil lamps, they also had no rouge or powder.

Pre-wedding dressing is nothing more than taking a string, crossing it together, and making a face.

Almost all older women have this skill.

"Fubao is here, come and see how beautiful your sister-in-law is." Ma Chunxia asked immediately when she saw Jiang Fubao coming in.

She looked very proud.

"Beautiful!" Jiang Fubao answered loudly.

Qian Xile's face instantly turned red with shame.

How can I call her sister-in-law if we haven’t even gotten married yet?

Ma Chunxia was just teasing her on purpose.

Jiang Fubao also cooperated.

She was not lying. My future sister-in-law looked really good today. Although she had no makeup on her face, her skin had become much smoother after being tied with thin ropes, and all the hair had been plucked out.

Even my hairline became clearer.

His face became at least one shade paler.

As the saying goes, one white can cover up three ugly things.

My sister-in-law, who originally looked honest and simple, suddenly had a gentler look on her face. She was wearing a new linen dress that was bought by my grandmother from the clothing store in the town.

Qian Xile's long hair was also tied up with a wooden hairpin.

There are also two light pink flowers inserted on it.

I guess it was picked up from the roadside.

It's strange to say.

After opening the face.

She's really beautiful now.

Jiang Fubao suddenly remembered that there was a set of cosmetics in the space.

But she couldn't just take it out.

But my sister-in-law's face in the future is too plain.

On such a happy day, one had to add some red. Jiang Fubao took advantage of the fact that no one was paying attention and secretly hid the lipstick in the space under her sleeve. Then she dipped her index finger in it and put it back under her sleeve.

A red dot suddenly appeared on the finger.

She stretched out her finger and rubbed it on her future sister-in-law's mouth.

"Fubao, what did you apply to me?"

Qian Xile was full of doubts.

"Well, I rubbed it on the red wedding paper. Wow, my sister-in-law's lips are red."

Jiang Fubao pretended to be stupid.

Fortunately, she happened to have a bright red lipstick.

She would never take out anything in bean paste color or Barbie pink.

"This word 'happiness' is dyed quite red. Don't wipe it off. Just put it on your mouth. It will look nice."

There is no bronze mirror at home.

Qian Xile can't see himself.

When she heard Ma Chunxia say it looked good, she put down her hand that was about to wipe her mouth.

The scene changes.

The good time has come.

Qian Xile is already in the Jiang family.

"Bow to Heaven and Earth——"

Accompanied by the high-pitched voice of Matchmaker Qian, Jiang Tongjin and Qian Xile, holding the red cloth, bowed towards the main gate.

"Bow to your parents twice—"

The old couple of the Jiang family and Jiang Dahe and his wife, who were sitting in the main room, were smiling with wrinkles on their faces.

"The couple bows to each other——"

There is no red veil to cover it.

Qian Xile's cheeks turned red with embarrassment.

Jiang Tongjin wasn't much better off; his ears were burning.

Because Zhang Jinlan had informed Matchmaker Qian in advance.

Therefore, the process of sending the bride to the bridal chamber was cancelled.

When the three daughters-in-law of the Jiang family married into the family, it was the same as today.

"Huh? Why don't you send the bride to the bridal chamber? Could it be that the matchmaker forgot to call her?" A younger woman in the yard asked loudly.

She looked no more than seventeen or eighteen years old.

It looks like they have been married only a few years ago.

"We don't have this rule in our family." Zhang Jinlan didn't explain further.

Being special in the village will easily attract hatred.

The fact that the young woman asked this question shows that she was treated like this by her in-laws when she first got married.

Zhang Jinlan despised this very much.

Isn't it pure torture to be hungry from noon till night?

Can you tell whether a new daughter-in-law has patience by being hungry for a day?

It's simply self-deception. If she really wants to pretend, she won't waste time doing so.

soon.

The banquet officially begins.

The Jiang family set up three tables, and the dishes on each table were the same.

There are five dishes in total, plus one staple food.

They are stir-fried sprouts, egg soup, shepherd's purse fried eggs, coarse flour pancakes, sprout soup and bamboo shoots stewed with meat.

This table of food is the most impressive one in Jiangjia Village in the past three years.

Even the richest family in the village only had one meat dish, two vegetables and one staple food for their wedding.

The only food is eggs.

"Mom, why did you prepare so many dishes? How much did it cost? You are spending too much. It's just marrying a grandson's wife. If you don't know, you would think you helped Tong Jin marry the daughter of a landlord."

Jiang Sanhe, who returned to her parents' home for a banquet, pulled her mother aside.

Counting.

The words have a slightly sour taste.

"There are only three tables of food. How much can you eat? I haven't even asked you yet. Why are you the only one back? Where are your grandson and children?"

Zhang Jinlan was a little unhappy.

It would be fine if only one daughter came back.

Still came back empty-handed.

Fortunately, the old lady has a good temper and doesn't like to quibble.

But if you put it in someone else's house.

I'm just afraid that there will be a rift between my daughter and my eldest daughter-in-law.

"Mom, don't mention it. The last time I went back, I found that my period was two days late. My mother-in-law thought I was pregnant. Before I could be happy, my period came that night. My mother-in-law's face darkened. I dared not speak loudly during this period.

Before I came back today, I said I would bring some eggs, but her face fell again, so I didn't dare to take them. As for the children, my grandson didn't come, and I was exhausted taking care of three children by myself, so I just let them stay at home. By the way, mother, why are there so many holes in the house? "

Jiang Sanhe looked at the hole in the backyard and was very confused.

"We need to expand our house, but the children don't have enough space. After marrying Jin, his two younger brothers can only sleep in Fubao's house. It just so happens that the Zhou family lost money before, so I took the money and built a few more rooms. The children will grow up, so we don't have to rush to build more rooms in the future. It's better to do it all at once."

There was laughter in the yard.

Without exception, the villagers praised the Jiang family for their generosity and the excellent banquet.

After saying this, Zhang Jinlan turned around and went to entertain the guests.

The wedding banquet lasted until the beginning of the You hour.

In fact, the food had already been eaten.

Everyone stayed together, chatting and bragging.

Wait until the sun sets.

Talents are leaving one after another.

"Xi Le, come here, your grandma is keeping the betrothal gifts and dowry for you, you should take this money yourself."
