Ye Xiaoxiao and Ye Changsheng went together to pick up Ye Jianguo and his wife.

Ye Changjun went to pick up the woman and her relatives.

Because they lived close by, Ye Xiaoxiao and his family arrived at the hotel at about the same time as the girl's family.

There were many people on the woman's side, including Zhao Xiaona, her parents, brother and sister-in-law.

But next to Zhao Xiaona's mother stood a tall and strong man with a sluggish look in his eyes and a silly smile on his face.

Li Guilan waited at the hotel entrance for a long time and saw the Zhao family coming directly to greet them.

"Let's go inside and sit down first. Thank you for all the hard work that has come here."

Zhao Xiaona's mother was a typical country woman of that era. Her face and hands bore traces of wind and sun, and she looked older than her age. She habitually smiled when she spoke.

"It's hard work. It's hard work."

Zhao Xiaona's father was relatively silent, but he looked serious and there was no smile on his face.

The two families walked into the hotel, and several elders sat together with Zhao Xiaona and Ye Changjun.

Ye Xiaoxiao and other important children sat at another table.

At the table were the children of Ye Mei's family and several relatives brought by Zhao Xiaona's family.

The silly guy among them sat opposite Ye Xiaoxiao.

Li Guilan was introducing the Ye family's relatives to the Zhao family, and then it was the Zhao family's turn.

Zhao Xiaona's mother walked over to Ye Xiaoxiao's table, hugged the silly child and said, "This is Xiaona's younger brother. He is 22 years old and is old enough to get married. I thought it would be a good idea for him to settle down with Xiaona."

Li Guilan stared at the child for a few seconds, not daring to say what was in her mind, "He's still young, I'm worried."

Zhao Xiaona's mother grabbed Li Guilan and pointed at Ye Xiaoxiao: "I just heard you introduce her as Chang Jun's sister?"

Li Guilan looked at Xiaoxiao and said, "Yes, this is the daughter of Uncle Changjun. She is the youngest child in our family."

Zhao Xiaona's mother, not knowing what she was thinking of, looked at Ye Xiaoxiao and finally nodded.

Ye Xiaoxiao knew what this had to do with her, so she looked at Ye Changsheng.

Ye Changsheng frowned, "Don't worry about her, let's eat."

After the meal was served, the elders at the table continued to talk about the two children.

When it comes to the issue of bride price, Zhao Xiaona's mother put forward her own ideas.

"We are both from rural families, so there is no need for a dowry. As I just said, our son is just the right age, and you have a girl. It would be easier if our two families could exchange marriages."

Zhao Xiaona's mother's words immediately changed the expressions of everyone in the room.

Ye Mei stood up and said, "Exchange marriage? We don't have any daughters for you to exchange, but even if we did, we wouldn't be happy to agree."

Ye Changjun also looked at Zhao Xiaona and asked directly: "Is this your idea or your parents' idea?"

Li Guilan suspected that she had heard it wrongly.

"Sister Zhao...what did you just say?"

Zhao Xiaona's mother put down her chopsticks and said, "Then I'll tell you the truth. Our requirement for marrying off our daughter is to find a wife for Xiaona's younger brother. Whoever can do it will get the marriage."

The Ye family really didn't expect the other party to come up with this idea.

Ye Guilan's face, which had been full of joy all day, turned cold at this moment. "Don't say that Xiaoxiao is Chang Jun's biological sister. Even if she is, we will not marry in exchange."

Zhao Xiaona's parents lost their previous calmness when they heard this.

"In that case, let's not waste time and forget about this matter."

"Let's go...son. Let's go!"

Zhao Xiaona's mother came over to pull her little son.

Zhao Xin smiled foolishly and reached directly into the plate to grab the chicken leg, "Mom, I haven't eaten yet, I want to eat."

Zhao Xiaona's mother: "Be obedient, let's eat, and I'll make you something delicious when I get home."

Zhao Xin: "I want to eat chicken legs."

Zhao Xin is obviously a fool with limited intelligence.

If there was something wrong with his brain, the Zhao family would also propose a marriage exchange.

Zhao Xiaona held her mother and said, "Mom, when you came here, you said that both 늅 and 놊늅 were not interfering with my business."

Zhao Xiaona's mother pushed her away and said, "Don't you see that people are looking up to your brother? Are you thinking about your own marriage and even interfering with your brother? How can you be so selfish?"

Ye Xiaoxiao really didn't expect that this pot would fall from the sky and land on her head.

Zhao Xiaona looked at Ye Changjun with a pitiful expression.

Ye Changsheng stood up and pulled Ye Xiaoxiao up, "Xiaoxiao, let's go."

Ye Changyuan was anxious: "Wait for me."

Ye Jianguo and his wife also looked at each other.

Miao Cuifang stood up and told everyone not to worry, "Sister Zhao, what era are we in now? The Women's Federation advocates women's freedom of marriage, so we can do something like exchanging brides.

Even if your family asks for a higher betrothal gift, we will agree, but Xiaoxiao is our baby, and no one should interfere with her ideas. "

This statement is clear. A normal person should have gone with the flow and sat down to talk things out.

However, Zhao Xiaona's mother was obviously a normal person. When she heard Miao Cuifang say this, she looked disdainful.

"Although my son may look a little confused, he is a good hand at physical work and is usually caring for others. Your daughter missed my son, so she will regret it in the future."

Miao Cuifang: “…”

Ye Jianguo looked at Zhao Xiaona's father and said, "Brother Zhao, you are the head of a family, do you think so too?"

Zhao Xiaona's father looked at his crying daughter and angry daughter-in-law, and also expressed his attitude.

"It's fine if you want to marry in exchange, but you have to give my daughter 200 yuan as a betrothal gift. Let's agree in advance that this money can be taken back later and kept in her family for her younger brother to marry."

The Zhao family thought well, Zhao Xin was the kind of person that no lady would like.

If the Ye family is willing to exchange the bride, then they should give more betrothal gifts, and then they can marry a daughter-in-law from a poorer family in the future.

The only reason this method was not put first was that Zhao Xin had been betrothed to a wife before, but unfortunately the girl ran away.

It is better to exchange the bride. If the monk can run away, the temple can run away.

Ye Jianguo: "Let's stop here for today's meal. We need to discuss it at home.

Chang Jun, help Miss Zhao up."

Ye Changjun had no choice but to listen to his second uncle and help Zhao Xiaona up from the ground.

Zhao Xiaona raised her head and said, "Chang Jun, I'm sorry, I did it on purpose.

I know your sister is in high school and my brother is worthy of her."

Ye Changjun loosened his hand, looking grim, "It's a question of whether we are compatible. Our family advocates free love, so we won't force anyone to get married."

Zhao Xiaona also looked ashamed.

The meal ended happily.

After Ye Xiaoxiao, Ye Changsheng and Ye Changyuan left the hotel, they asked, "How do you exchange brides?"

Ye Changyuan: "Bah, that's all old habits. We're going to exchange you to the Zhao family to be the wife of a fool. Even if we're single for life, we're still going to exchange our sister for a husband."

Ye Xiaoxiao wasn't very angry, because no matter what the other party's idea was, she agreed.

"Has Brother Chang Jun's marriage been decided yet?"
