Chapter 241 Marriage and Marriage
Old Lady Liu asked Mrs. Wei directly, "Are you free right now? I want to discuss something with you."
Mother Wei was naturally free, so she hurriedly called Old Man Yu over, and the couple quickly took Old Lady Liu and Old Man Mao home.
Bai Xiaofeng had already boiled water at home and found a set of clean tea sets. She took out the fine tea leaves that Yu Sanbao brought back and that the whole family was reluctant to drink, and made a pot of tea.
Mrs. Wei gave Bai Xiaofeng an admiring look.
The old couple felt somewhat awkward, so they asked Old Lady Liu to take the seat: "…Our house is small, please don't begrudge it, Master."
Mrs. Wei poured another cup of brewed tea for Old Lady Liu: "...We farmers don't have much good stuff, and we haven't drunk any good tea. I don't know if you are used to drinking this tea..."
Old Lady Liu waved her hand in a casual manner: "It's nothing."
He smiled, picked up the teacup and took a sip, "I'm a little thirsty."
Mrs. Wei was slightly relieved when she saw that Old Lady Liu did not show any disgust on her face.
Old Lady Liu laughed and said, "You don't have to be too nervous. My Liu family also started out in poverty and had a hard time in the early years."
He then said seriously, "This time I came here to discuss the marriage between my Ah Wu and your Si Yang."
Mrs. Wei and Old Man Yu suddenly became more nervous.
The two looked at each other, countless guesses running through their minds.
Finally, Mrs. Wei spoke with some difficulty: "Grand Master, is there something wrong with this marriage..."
"You misunderstood." Old Lady Liu probably guessed what Grandma Wei was thinking, and laughed, "Awu and Siyang are both very good, and this marriage will be in accordance with what we agreed on before... just one point."
Old Lady Liu smiled and said in a serious tone, "It's just that something happened a few days ago that made me change my mind."
Old Lady Liu coughed and looked at Lao Mao.
"To be honest, this matter is largely thanks to Xingxing." Lao Mao stepped forward and told Mrs. Wei and Old Man Yu about how Aunt Awu wanted to murder Awu a few days ago.
Mrs. Wei and Old Man Yu were both shocked when they heard this.
A few days ago, Xingxing brought back a lot of jewelry and gave it to Mrs. Wei as if it were a treasure, saying that they were for building a house.
When Mrs. Wei saw the jewels, she was shocked and asked where they came from.
Xingxing puffed out her chest and said that some bad guys had set off smoke to knock out Sister Awu, and Xingxing saved her, so the old man gave this to Xingxing to thank her.
Mrs. Wei was shocked and asked about the matter quickly. She was relieved when she learned that Ah Wu was fine.
As for the jewels, Mrs. Wei put them in Xingxing's own small box according to custom.
It was not until now that Mrs. Wei realized that the person who wanted to harm Ah Wu was actually Ah Wu's great aunt!
The kind of kiss!
After Lao Mao finished speaking, he sighed and said, "It's a misfortune for our family. That's all it is."
Mrs. Wei and Old Man Yu looked at each other, both horrified and not knowing what to say.
Finally, seeing that Old Lady Liu looked so heavy-hearted, Mother Wei comforted her, "Don't be too sad. Fortunately, we, Awuji, are blessed by nature. We will naturally turn bad things into good things."
Old Lady Liu agreed, nodded, and said in a deep voice: "That's what happened. I have sent the person back to the capital, and also attached a letter, ordering my good-for-nothing eldest son to divorce his wife. But the couple has regarded Ah Wu as a resource of the Liu family. When I was here, they dared to plot Ah Wu's innocence and tried to force me to agree to Ah Wu's marriage with the Cui family. But if I am gone, Ah Wu will be at home soliciting bribes again. I dare not think whether they will do something crazy..."
When Old Lady Liu thought of her eldest son and his wife, a hint of sadness suddenly appeared on her face.
Mrs. Wei and Old Man Yu were so horrified that they could not utter a word.
There were many dirty things happening in their countryside, but they never expected that there were also many such dirty things among the brocade piles!
"So, after thinking about it, I think I still have to discuss it with you." Old Lady Liu sighed and said, "Can the marriage of Ah Wu and Si Yang be moved up as soon as possible? When the time comes, the wedding will still be held in your house, and no one will mention it as a bribe, just say it's a marriage. The rest will be done as we said before. The young couple will live with me for a while, and then live with you for a while; the first child will have the surname Liu, and if there are other children, they will still have your surname Yu. What do you think?"
For Mrs. Wei and Old Man Yu, they had even agreed to let Yu Siyang marry into the Liu family, so how could they not agree to what Old Lady Liu proposed?
"This is a good thing for our Yu family. How can we not agree?" Mrs. Wei didn't even need to discuss it with Old Man Yu. She said directly, "It's Ah Wu. I'm afraid that Ah Wu will bear the reputation of marrying into our Yu family, which is not good..."
Old Lady Liu didn't care about this. She smiled bitterly and shook her head: "What does it matter if the name sounds good? If the name sounds good, who knows, her vicious uncle and his wife might use her to exchange for some benefits."
That's true.
If Ah Wu was recruiting at home, after Old Lady Liu passed away, Ah Wu would still be a member of the Liu family. At that time, she would naturally be constrained by her uncle.
Ah Wu is so beautiful and kind, and her uncle might think she is a resource to be used and send her away...
But if they get married, Ah Wu will be a member of the Yu family.
If his eldest son reaches out to the Yu family, he will have to consider the law.
In addition, Old Lady Liu did this because she believed that the Yu family would be able to protect Ah Wu.
Mrs. Wei was a little excited: "Don't worry, no matter whether Ah Wu marries into our family or Si Yang marries into the Liu family, Ah Wu is the daughter-in-law of our Yu family. We will definitely protect her well."
Old man Yu nodded quickly, indicating that what his wife said was what he wanted to say.
Old Lady Liu felt somewhat relieved when she saw this.
They discussed the details of the marriage again.
"...Since I'm going to marry Ah Wu, I'll hurry up and clean up Si Yang's house." Mrs. Wei was a man of action. "I'll repaint the house and get some new furniture. After all, we'll need it when we build a big yard."
Seeing how concerned Mrs. Wei was, Old Lady Liu felt even more satisfied.
In a blink of an eye, it was almost noon, and Mrs. Wei warmly invited Old Lady Liu to stay for a meal.
Old Lady Liu thought about it and was really curious about the food level of the Yu family, so she nodded and agreed.
Mrs. Wei was in a very high spirit, so she asked Old Man Yu to call everyone back home.
Yu Daniu and Yu Erhu chatted with Old Lady Liu for a while, while Su Rouer and Shuangyun went out to buy some meat and fish. Mrs. Wei and Li Chunhua, the best cook, went straight into the kitchen and started working.
