Chapter 51 Emptying the Enemy's House and Marrying the Bully 7
"Why bother picking mushrooms? Let's just go back. Climbing the mountain is too tiring; I feel like my feet are covered in blisters."
She's already done us a favor by coming out, so it's perfect for her to go back now.
"Oh, is it that serious? Well, how about I carry you down the mountain?"
Ning Yan laughed again, "No need, I can walk slowly by myself."
The ground was so wet, she was afraid Fan Dahu would drop her!
Fan Dahu was almost dazzled by Ning Yan's smile; his wife's smile was truly beautiful!
"Everyone in my family except my mother went up the mountain to pick mushrooms today. When they come back, I'll bring you some mushrooms. Eat as many as you like."
Ning Yan: "Okay, I'll wait then."
On the way down the mountain, Fan Dahu's smile never stopped.
After sending Ning Yan home, he happily went home and started shouting as soon as he entered the house, "Mom, Mom, Ning Zhiqing has agreed to marry me! Hurry up and find me a matchmaker."
I need to go to the city to prepare everything for the wedding.
Li Xiuhua, who was sitting on the kang sewing clothes, slapped her thigh: "Really? Ning Zhiqing really agreed? Oh my, that delicate-skinned young girl is really willing to marry you?"
Fan Dahu: "She promised it herself. By the way, we have to choose an auspicious date. It would be best to choose one that is close to home. She works so hard in the fields every day. You didn't see it, but when she finished work yesterday, her hands were red and swollen. I don't want her to suffer anymore."
"Good, good! My son, you've done a great job! I'll go find someone to propose marriage for you right away!"
By the way, what kind of dowry are you planning to give? And what about accommodations?
The Fan family had some wealth in their early years. Each of their four sons had a room, and the elderly couple had another room. Later, when they had more grandchildren, they added three more side rooms, where the little ones lived.
When it came to the bride price, Fan Dahu hesitated for a moment, "Mother, let me discuss this with your daughter-in-law first. We'll give her whatever she asks for."
My wife is a pampered young lady who has been raised in luxury. I absolutely cannot let her suffer any grievances. As for the bride price, I will do whatever she says!
"Okay, then go ask now!"
Fan Dahu didn't rush to leave. After going back to his room, he strode over to the educated youth settlement.
On the way, they ran into Aunt Pang's son and glared at him, scaring him so much that he quickly ran away along the wall.
Damn it, if this guy targets me, I might end up lying in bed in pain for days.
Why is his mother so forgetful? I've told her so many times that she can mess with anyone in the team, but the Fan Dahu family is someone you can't mess with!
She wouldn't listen and became even more determined after being thwarted. What kind of situation is this?
When Fan Dahu arrived at the educated youth settlement, Ning Yan was eating a chicken leg on the bed, swinging her little feet. Hearing footsteps, she quickly put the chicken leg into her spatial storage. She also rinsed her mouth with spiritual spring water and wiped her mouth with a handkerchief. After making sure that she didn't smell bad and that her mouth was clean, she left the room.
Why are you here?
Fan Dahu: "Are you the only one at the educated youth settlement?"
Ning Yan nodded, "They've all gone up the mountain."
"Then I'll get to the point. What are your plans for our marriage?"
He wasn't someone who knew nothing. A man and a woman alone in a room would be bad for the woman's reputation, so he didn't plan to go inside. He simply decided to talk in the courtyard.
Which aspect are you referring to?
"You can tell me your requirements for dowry, wedding house, banquet, etc."
Ning Yan: "Of course I hope everything goes well for the wedding, but it also depends on your family's financial situation."
Marriage is a lifelong commitment. She has never suffered any hardship since birth, so her wedding should not be anything less than a hardship for her!
She could always make it up to the man later; she wasn't short of money anyway.
Fan Dahu immediately burst into laughter, "That's what I thought too. My wife is so beautiful, I must have accumulated eight lifetimes of good karma to marry you. Of course, we should have a grand celebration!"
The bride price will be 1001 yuan, symbolizing being one in a thousand. We'll buy all 32 legs (referring to a pair of watches, a watch, a watch, and a watch), and also provide you with four sets of clothes for each of the four seasons. We'll hold a banquet with fifteen tables.
Besides, since your family doesn't live here, I'll provide your dowry—eight sets of bedding, eight sets of blankets, plus a dowry of 666 yuan. Is that alright with you?"
Ning Yan was genuinely surprised. Was this man's family background a bit too rich?
Just from what he said, not counting the tickets, it's easily more than two thousand yuan. He's quite good at making money!
"No need for a dowry, I will prepare it myself. As for bedding, I will buy the materials, but I will have to trouble your family to find someone to make it for me."
Fan Dahu was somewhat surprised. Didn't his wife say that their house had been ransacked? Judging from her tone, she's quite wealthy!
"Alright, we'll do it your way. My mom has already gone to find a matchmaker. I could have applied for land to rebuild a house, but building a house takes time, and I'm afraid it will delay our wedding. Besides, I often have to go out, and I'm not comfortable letting you live alone."
Also, even if you can't cook, if you live in the old house, someone will prepare three meals a day and put them right in front of you.
Ning Yan was extremely satisfied with his explanation. Many hands make light work, and with the whole family living together, she wouldn't stand out if she didn't do any work.
Who can't have a lazybones in their family?
"Sure, I like lots of people!"
Fan Dahu was even happier. "Well, since you don't have anything to do today, how about I take you into town to buy some things?"
We need to buy all three things (a watch, a sewing machine, a radio, and a watch). The carpenter in the 32-legged team has them ready-made. My wife should also pick out the clothes herself. She also said she wants to buy cotton fabric, which requires going to the city.
"Okay, so how do we get there?"
"Wait here, I'll go borrow a tractor right now!"
Ning Yan: "Can we borrow this from the team?"
Fan Dahu said smugly, "Others definitely can't borrow it, but it's different for me."
Ning Yan thought Fan Dahu still had some influence in the team, but Fan Dahu's next words almost choked her: "If he doesn't lend me his money, do you think he can withstand my big fist?"
Ning Yan: ……
After giving his instructions, Fan Dahu hurriedly left. A little over ten minutes later, the sound of a tractor churning could be heard outside the educated youth settlement. The loud voice of the man outside the door echoed for miles, "Fan Shengli, you better wait here. I'll go call your sister-in-law. Drive slowly, we're not in a hurry. Your sister-in-law is delicate, don't jolt her too much, or I'll teach you a lesson!"
"Cousin, what are you talking about? Do you think I'm that clueless? Don't worry, just watch, I'll definitely drive steadily!"
Oh my god, what sins did he commit in his past life to end up with such a heartless cousin? The rest of the Fan family has been hoping that their cousin would get married soon so that someone could keep him in check. Now that his dream is about to come true, of course he has to cooperate.
Ning Yan: ...He even bullies his own cousin, Fan Dahu is really a ruthless person!
"young married woman……"
"Don't talk nonsense, we're not married yet!"
Fan Dahu quickly said, "Oh, oh, oh, I misspoke. Ning Zhiqing, let's go, the tractor is here."
