Saying this is spreading feudal superstition. If they are reported, they will also have to live in the cowshed.
When Xiao Yichen came back that night, he was also discussing this with Xia Yunxuan. Gu Beihuai said, "Why are these people so cunning? When something happens, they always think of selling their daughter."
Xia Yunxuan: "Because it's basically like this in the countryside, the laws are imperfect, and it's not illegal to sell your own daughter at a high price, and it makes money quickly."
"Otherwise, with their work in the store, they only make a few dollars a year. How long will it take them to save up to 300 yuan?"
"Anyway, daughters in the countryside are worth nothing except for the dowry they bring when they get married. Isn't there always someone who's complaining about losing money?"
Xiao Yichen: "Xuanxuan, don't worry, I'm definitely not that kind of person. Whether it's a son or a daughter, they're all treasures."
"I will definitely take good care of them and let them grow up healthy and happy. I think my daughter is so cute and soft. She looks so beautiful in a pretty dress."
"It's just that it's not good to be old. I can't bear to let her get married. I raised her with so much effort, but she was married off all of a sudden."
Xia Yunxuan: "Yichen, aren't you thinking too early? After we get married, you're thinking about having children. Are you pushing for it so hard? What if you don't get pregnant?"
Xiao Yichen: "Xuanxuan, you misunderstood me, I didn't mean that. I just wanted to get to the point. I haven't induced labor yet. We need it if we have it, but there's no rush if we don't. We're still young anyway, and babies will always be there."
"People say there are only two reasons for having a baby: one is to repay a favor, the other is to seek revenge. I hope the baby comes a little later to repay a favor."
"I don't want to work so hard to raise a rebellious person. When the time comes, I will definitely feel itchy and want to fight him."
Xia Yunxuan: "Well, Yichen, it's good that you didn't induce labor. I'm afraid that it would be too stressful to have a baby right after getting married. Also, when the baby grows up, you will be old and weak, and you won't be able to move."
"Our two kids are definitely here to repay you. When the time comes, we will definitely behave ourselves and grow up to be adults."
Girls, I can only say that you think too early. When your child slaps someone's face, you will know what a naughty child is.
Gu Beihuai: "Sister-in-law, Boss, you are talking about having children so early. You are still so young, why don't you spend a few years alone together?"
"Don't you know that the child is very upset? He cries all the time and can't do anything he wants to do."
"Hey, I get goosebumps when I think of these. You'd better not find a partner and live alone when you get old. Hehe, big boss, just let your nephew take care of you when you're old. What do you think?"
Gu Beihuai was picking up some food when Xiao Yichen knocked it down with his chopsticks. "What are you going to eat, second brother? You seem to have been eating too much recently, and your brain is full of shit. You are quite calculating and want to be beautiful, and you don't want anything and let your son support you in your old age. Let me tell you, there is no window, let alone a door."
"Tomorrow, call Grandpa Gu and tell him that someone wants to become a monk and live alone until the end of his life. Let him give you some advice."
Gu Beihuai: "Boss, you are so cruel. If you dare to call Grandpa, call the girls in the compound one by one to tell them that you are here. Come on, let's hurt each other."
Xiao Yichen thought he had miscalculated, the second child had become smarter now and was not as easy to bully as before.
If those stinky flies knew he was here, he dared to say that they would definitely show up here within three days, and he estimated that he would have no peace of mind at that time. The key was that he had not yet married a wife. If something happened, where would he find a wife? He didn't dare to bet.
Xiao Yichen: "Second brother, just pretend that I didn't say that. Don't mention it to either of us. After all, we are still good friends, right?"
After Xiao Yichen finished speaking, he broke the silence and gave Gu Beihuai two pieces of meat.
Gu Beihuai's heart was filled with tears, as if there were little people dancing. Oh yeah, oh yeah, he finally turned the tables.
What a good day! He was usually suppressed by his boss, but now he is singing the song of a liberated peasant.
It seems that sister-in-law is the boss's Achilles' heel. Humph, as long as he can coax sister-in-law, he will no longer be afraid of the boss.
Well, he is really smart. Why didn't he think of this before? How stupid.
After everyone finished eating, Xiao Yichen said, "Xuanxuan, can we move in tomorrow afternoon? We'll go get the marriage certificate this afternoon."
Is this person a little too impatient? However, her eighteenth birthday will be next, which is not impossible in this era. Besides, she is in good health because she drinks spiritual spring water.
After thinking it over, Xia Yunxuan nodded and said, "Okay, tomorrow morning, after we distribute the farm tools, you can ask the team leader for two days off."
"Tomorrow afternoon, we need to get all the dishes here. We will go talk to Aunt Guiqin and ask her to find a few people to help us cook."
"Of course I will prepare some food and won't let them work in vain."
Xiao Yichen: "Okay, Xuanxuan, I'll listen to you. Let's get some things and go to the captain's house now. It's too late and everyone is resting."
Xia Yunxuan took a pound of brown sugar, a bottle of White Rabbit milk candy, a pack of cigarettes, and a bottle of wine, and walked towards the captain's house with Xiao Yichen.
A few minutes later, the two stood outside the captain's house. Xia Yunxuan called out, "Captain Uncle, Aunt Guiqin, are you guys home?"
Hu Guiqin: "It's Miss Yun, come in quickly and sit down. You can just come in. We don't have so many rules in the countryside. You are so polite, little girl."
"You came just as you please, Miss Yun. Why did you bring so many valuable things with you? Do you treat me as an outsider?"
Xia Yunxuan: "Uncle Captain. Aunt Guiqin, you and Yichen are here to trouble you with something. You must not come empty-handed."
"If you come here empty-handed, others might think you don't know manners if they know."
"It's just a small token of my appreciation. Please accept it, Captain Uncle and Aunt Guiqin. You're welcome."
The team leader said, "Xiao Zhiqing, Yun girl, tell me what you need. I will help you if I can. This gift is too expensive. There are people in our village who have come to propose marriage but it is not so grand."
Xia Yunxuan: "Captain, you are exaggerating. It's just a small thing."
Hu Guiqin: "Girl Yun, you're getting married soon, so you can't be so lavish with your money in the future, understand?"
The captain said, "Girl Yun, tell me what you came to see me for. I'm going to get nervous if you don't tell me what you're talking about when I see you carrying such a heavy gift."
Xiao Yichen: "Captain, I will be marrying Xuanxuan in the future, so I will need to take two days off tomorrow."
