Chapter 115 Gao Zhuang's Romantic Luck
While Gao Mingcheng was busy hunting in the mountains, his good brother Gao Zhuang was also busy.
He was busy with blind dates.
The end of the year is a good time for families to visit each other. Not long ago, my tall and strong aunt and uncle brought their children back to the village to give New Year gifts to my grandmother. Then I talked about the situation in my uncle's village and which girls of marriageable age were there.
Gao Zhuang's uncle was also a carpenter. He was originally a friend of Gao Zhuang's father. After he married Gao Zhuang's aunt, the two families became even closer.
Now Gao Zhuang's parents are both gone, but his aunt and uncle love him very much and care a lot about his lifelong affairs.
So today, his tall and strong aunt took him to a girl's home to meet her.
Generally, the boy goes to the girl's home to meet the boy. If the girl is interested, she will go to the boy's home again accompanied by her elders to see the specific situation at the boy's home.
If everyone is satisfied, then we can talk about marriage.
Nowadays, it is not as good as in ancient times. There is no need for matchmaking. You just need to find a suitable match and get married. Negotiate the betrothal gifts and dowry, choose an auspicious day, and hold a wedding banquet!
It was almost dark when Gao Mingcheng finished processing the wild boar. He put the processed pork into a bamboo basket and the offal into a bucket, and then carried them back to his grandmother's house.
Of course you can’t get everything in one trip, you have to come back again for more.
He didn't want to sell the wild boar at the market. Although it was almost New Year and all the wild boars could certainly be sold, his family also needed to eat meat.
He planned to make most of the pork into wind-blown meat and save it for later consumption. He would eat the offal and bones now. With this wild boar, he would not have to spend money on meat during the Chinese New Year.
When he returned to his grandmother's house, Gao Zhuang had already returned and was talking to his grandmother with a rosy face.
My grandmother was also very happy and kept saying, "Take the money tomorrow and go to the county to buy a Changzheng brand bicycle! We are getting married soon and it will be inconvenient without a bicycle."
"Hey!" Gao Zhuang responded cheerfully, his clear eyes full of expectations for the future.
Gao Mingcheng stopped and looked at this tall and strong man.
In his previous life, he took Gao Zhuang to the south to make a living. He was always busy and experienced a lot. He had no time to take care of his own small family, and Gao Zhuang had no time to get married and have children.
And now, he and Xuanyuemei are about to get married, and Gao Zhuang has also found his ideal partner!
The last time he went to Zhangshu to sell medicine, he gave Huang Dazhi 100 yuan and also gave Gao Zhuang 100 yuan, but if Gao Zhuang got married, he would naturally have to give him more.
"Brother Mingcheng, what are you doing...did you kill a wild boar again?" Gao Zhuang's voice was loud at first, then lowered, obviously afraid that people outside would hear it.
"Well. These are good meats. Put them aside first. I'll go get the pig heads, pig feet and other things." Gao Mingcheng said.
Gao Zhuang immediately said, "I'll help you get it."
As they talked, they walked out of the yard and headed towards the new house in Niuweiling.
Along the way, Gao Zhuang shared his blind date experience with Gao Mingcheng, so Gao Mingcheng also knew what kind of person the girl was.
The woman's name is He Xiuman, she is 21 years old this year and is the eldest sister in the family, with two younger sisters and a younger brother.
Gao Zhuang said with a flushed face: "Actually, his family is not very satisfied with me, but... Xiuman said...she likes me."
After saying the last sentence, Gao Zhuang was already extremely shy.
This was the first time in all his life that a girl had said so directly that she liked him!
Originally, he thought that He Xiuman was older than him and was not particularly interested in her. However, ever since He Xiuman publicly said that she liked him, he felt that He Xiuman was good in every way!
It's not easy to meet someone who likes him so much, so of course he should marry her!
Gao Mingcheng listened and felt that this girl was interesting and should be a person with strong opinions.
But a family like this one with three sisters and one brother inevitably reminds people of the rumors about Voldemort.
Of course, Gao Mingcheng would not say it out loud and ruin Gao Zhuang’s good mood.
You will know whether this person has good character or not in the future.
Gao Zhuang was sharing He Xiuman's story with Gao Mingcheng, while He Xiuman was also talking about Gao Zhuang with her good friend.
He Xiuman is of average looks and wears ordinary clothes. Although she is young, her hands are already a little rough due to years of hard work.
Although she was already twenty-one, her family actually wanted her to stay at home and work and did not want her to get married. It was only when she heard Aunt Gao Zhuang talking about her nephew in the village that she spoke up and asked Aunt Gao Zhuang to bring the nephew to her home to meet him.
It can be said that this meeting was He Xiuman’s own idea.
After seeing Gao Zhuang, she found that Gao Zhuang didn't have any particularly obvious strengths, but also didn't have any particularly obvious weaknesses, so He Xiuman expressed her opinion directly!
Her best friend is also from the same village. She is about the same age as her and is the eldest sister in the family. She was left at home by her parents to work, so she has not yet married.
"Xiuman, you've just met one girl and you've made your decision?" the good friend asked with some concern, thinking that He Xiuman was being too radical.
He Xiuman sat on the edge of the bed and said nonchalantly, "Men are all the same. It doesn't matter who you marry. The key is whether the man is good or not!"
The good friend frowned even more, because in her opinion, Gao Zhuang's conditions were not very good.
Gao Zhuang has no parents, only an elderly grandmother. He himself is not particularly outstanding, with average looks and height. I really don't know what He Xiuman sees in Gao Zhuang.
He Xiuman glared at her unhappily, pulled her closer, and whispered in her ear: "Gao Zhuang has no parents, that's a good condition!"
Her best friend's eyes widened with disbelief.
In the eyes of others, this is clearly a poor condition!
He Xiuman continued, "When I get married, I will be the head of the family! I will decide how many children to have in the future, whether it is a boy or a girl! I am fed up with my mom and my grandma! Gao Zhuang's family is so good, there are fewer people, it is quiet, and there is less housework!"
"Lili, you'd better find someone to marry. You can find a good one while you are still young. Otherwise, if your mother keeps you at home doing farm work for a few more years, you won't be able to find a good one." He Xiuman sincerely advised her good friend.
However, her good friend did not have her courage and did not dare to respond.
So He Xiuman stopped persuading him. She felt relaxed and happy from the bottom of her heart when she thought about escaping from her original family and getting rid of the complicated housework and farm work.
Well, Gao Zhuang’s house has another advantage, which is that it is far away!
Since she was young, He Xiuman decided not to marry someone from the same village, because marrying someone from the same village would be no different from not getting married. She would still have to take care of all the mess in her family!
