Chapter 25 Shulan Gets Married

Gradually, Shuxin has been working at the railway station for two months, and her mood and work have stabilized.

Just after the autumn harvest, the Liu family started to arrange the wedding of their cousin Shulan, and the date was already set.

Getting married is relatively simple nowadays. Those who can afford it can just set up a few tables. If they can't, the daughter can just carry the things and go home with the couple.

The Liu family must have done it. Look, Shuxin came back from get off work, put down her luggage and went to the mountain. Originally, Grandpa Liu asked Liu Jianjun to buy meat from the commune meat processing plant, but Shuxin thought it was a waste of money, so she went to the mountains to catch wild boars.

With Shuxin's ability, getting a wild boar is not a problem. In addition to wild boars, she also hunted a few rabbits and pheasants. Not to mention one for each table, but one for two tables is still possible.

In the countryside, the Liu family's banquet table was considered wealthy, and also because the Liu family had a daughter, Shuxin, who worked as a teacher in the city, so other people didn't think too much about it, seeing that the Liu family had done a good job. If Shuxin hadn't done it, the Liu family wouldn't have done it so well.

After Shuxin carried the wild boar and the prey back home, Grandma Liu and her two daughters-in-law cleaned them up. They would definitely not cook the whole pig, but save some for their own consumption later. It would be too extravagant to use all of it for a banquet.

Shuxin first went to the kitchen to boil water for a bath, then went to Shulan's room to see her cousin and gave her the wedding gift she had given to her cousin.

When I came to Shulan's room, I saw her sitting on the kang with a few good sisters, chatting happily. Oh, her boyfriend was also there, and he got along well with my cousin and other sisters.

As time went by, the Liulin Brigade also accepted Luo Yue's woman-like behavior, so now when the girls in the village chat with Luo Yue, no one will gossip about him.

In fact, it was cousin Shulan who led Luo Yue to join the sister group in the village. He spent a long time eating and drinking at Liu's house, and had more contact with cousin Shulan. The cousin also regarded this weak and delicate brother-in-law as her good sister, and naturally led him to integrate into the group.

When Luo Yue saw Shu Xin coming in, he quickly abandoned his little sisters, ran to her side, put his arm around Shu Xin, and took her to sit on the stool together. The girls who saw this scene rolled their eyes and gave Luo Yue a look.

"Sister, this is the dowry I prepared for you. I asked someone to exchange the tickets and bought a watch. If you wear it, the Li family will also have confidence. In addition, I also picked out a kettle and a blanket for you."

After Shuxin finished speaking, she took out the things. When Shulan and her sisters saw them, their eyes became red with envy. Apart from anything else, the watch alone cost nearly a hundred yuan, and the blanket also looked like a precious item. Shulan is lucky to have a generous sister. The dowry she prepared for her cousin is so expensive. How come Shuxin is not their sister?

Shulan was also shocked when she saw the dowry her sister gave her, but after the shock she felt distressed. How much money did it cost?

"This is too expensive. You don't have to give me these. The dowry my family prepared for me is already decent in the nearby villages. You also bought me a red skirt and small leather shoes before, but that's enough. You're still buying me such expensive things now. Do you think you can live?"

"It's okay, sister. I'm your sister. If I don't treat you well, who else can I treat well? I have a job now. It's okay for me to buy you something nice. Take it, or I'll be angry. You know my temper."

Shulan heard her sister say this and stopped refusing. Her sister knew that when she gave you something, you should just take it, and she wouldn't be impatient to have it pushed back and forth. I think it would be the best way for her to repay her sister if she asked her parents and brother to take care of her brother-in-law more in the future.

Why is she looking after her brother-in-law instead of her younger sister? Her younger sister is so capable, she can't help much with work or chores. Looking at the current situation, her younger sister's brother-in-law Luo Yue will be in charge of the household in the future, while her younger sister will be in charge of the outside affairs, so she should take care of her brother-in-law more.

At dusk, the Li family's gift-giving guests also arrived. The Li family gave twenty-eight yuan as a betrothal gift. Originally, Li's parents felt a little bit painful about giving such a large betrothal gift, but they were very happy after seeing Shulan's dowry.

There are quilts and beds, dressing tables and wardrobes, and all the other odds and ends can fill several cars. I heard from people nearby that my daughter-in-law's sister also gave her a watch and a blanket as a dowry, which shows that she wants to worship her daughter-in-law even more.

When they were dating, she was attracted by Shulan's gentleness and virtue. A few days after the engagement, she received news that their daughter-in-law's cousin had moved to the city to work. At that time, she and the old man were glad that they acted quickly. If they were a few days slower, their family might not be able to afford the eldest sister of the Liu family.

When they were preparing the betrothal gift a few days ago, the couple thought of their daughter-in-law's sister, so they added another RMB 28 to the original RMB 8 and decided to send the gift to the Liu family. The eldest and second daughters-in-law in the family were making trouble with them. They will wait until the youngest daughter-in-law brings the dowry to the Li family tomorrow, then they will see if they still have the nerve to make trouble.

Looking back at tonight's banquet, there are noodles and meat, both of which are top-notch dishes, giving the Li family enough face. I also heard that my daughter-in-law and cousin went back home to the mountain and hunted a wild boar to prepare a banquet for her sister's wedding.

Seeing how good the relationship between the sisters was, she secretly decided that Shulan would be her favorite daughter-in-law in the Li family, no doubt about it.

The next morning, Shu Xin dressed Shu Lan herself. She dressed her in a red dress and black leather shoes that she bought for her. She used a red silk scarf to make a big red flower and inserted it into her hair. Then she used simple tools to put on Shu Lan's bridal makeup.

Shu Xin stepped back and looked up at her work. She was so beautiful that she was more beautiful than a flower, with a graceful figure and a rosy face, which was quite touching.

This beautiful look not only stunned the people around, but also made the groom very happy and bewitched.

When her eldest cousin carried Shulan out of the yard and stood up and walked towards the Li family, Shuxin felt happy and sad at the same time, with mixed feelings.

I'm happy that she has escaped from the hell of the Liu family and is living happily. I'm sad that I won't be able to see her often in the future. Since she came into this world, she grew up with Shulan, who treated her like her own sister and took good care of her. After she turned 18, she slept in the same room with her cousin, and their relationship became deeper and deeper. Later, when Shulan turned 15, they slept separately.

Seeing that the wedding procession was about to leave, Shuxin came to her senses and quickly followed them. She and her two brothers went to see Shulan off.

Shuxin is the most promising person in the Liu family. Going to marry her is also a way to show respect. It's not that the Liu family is without capable people. Think twice before bullying my daughter.

Coming to the Li family, Li's parents naturally could not ignore Shuxin. It was not easy for a woman to gain a foothold in the city. When the people around heard that the bride's sister was from the city, they hurried over to try to please her. Shuxin was not angry and enjoyed the whole meal happily.

But there were also many warnings. Li's relatives and friends also knew how much Shuxin valued this cousin, so they naturally didn't dare to do anything to Shulan. The other two daughters-in-law of the Li family were also terrified.

Previously, the two of them were dissatisfied with the eight-dollar betrothal gift given by their parents-in-law to Erxiao, but today they were speechless when they saw the dowry that Shulan brought. They had only received eight yuan as betrothal gift and no dowry at the beginning, so they naturally had no confidence to marry a sister-in-law like Erxiao who had a lot of assets, not to mention that she had a capable and protective sister.

Seeing that the wedding banquet was over, Shuxin said goodbye to Shulan with her two brothers. She was not worried about Shulan's life after marriage. She would come more often when she had time. The Li family would not dare to neglect her sister.
