Chapter 337 You are too bad (third update)
As soon as she entered the house, An Zhixia saw that the sofa and the table were full of things. She knew that her grandma had taken Aunt Chen home to go shopping again. There were only so many shopping malls in Kyoto, and she didn't know where the old lady found the good stuff.
"My dear, come and have a look," Mrs. Jiang saw her coming back, and quickly called people over. She excitedly flipped through the books for her to see one by one, and finally sighed with regret: "If only the times hadn't changed, and our Jiang family was still a wealthy family, then my dear would be a rich girl, and I could prepare a dowry of 108 pieces for you, and you could really get married in a grand ceremony.
It’s not like now, your grandfather said that you can only buy eight boxes of dowry as a token of appreciation, otherwise if you buy more, people will get jealous and talk about it, and you can’t even show off your dowry.”
At this point, Mrs. Jiang's face was full of memories. She pulled her and smiled and began to talk about what it was like when she got married. "We girls in the boudoir also compete with each other, comparing husbands, the family background of the husband's family and the family of the mother, betrothal gifts, betrothal gifts, dowries, even sons and grandsons, anything that can put the other party underfoot can be used for comparison.
Now thinking back to that time when I was young, I was actually quite happy and carefree.”
An Zhixia could totally imagine it. She smiled and said, "Grandma, I think it's pretty good now. Life is peaceful and happy, there is no need to worry, there is no power, no war. If we want to live a happy life, we just need to work hard. What kind of wealth can't we fight for?"
"Yes, the current era is pretty good. It would be even better if there weren't so many rules and regulations," Old Lady Jiang nodded in agreement. "Alas, people are never satisfied. Our New Xiahua is in the best era in its 5,000-year history, but we still hope that the country will get better and better, and the people will be able to control their own destiny more and more."
Old Lady Jiang specially asked Aunt Chen to prepare dinner. An Zhixia bit her chopsticks and said dissatisfiedly: "Grandma, I'm getting married, why are you still controlling my diet? I want to eat meat..."
"Silly girl," Old Lady Jiang glared at her. "It's ok that you are busy with work, but when you get married, you have to devote some of your energy to running your own family. The Fang family is in a special situation, and there are three children who need your care, and Fang Yuan usually has to follow the car everywhere, so you can't let yourself go.
Women can be successful in their careers, but they should not forget the gentleness, delicacy and caring that women should have. You are getting married tomorrow, but you are still making trouble for me.
Grandma, do you need a few more pieces of meat? Isn't it because I want you to be a beautiful bride tomorrow?"
An Zhixia quickly put her hand to her mouth and made a zippering motion.
Old Mrs. Jiang nodded at her, not knowing whether to laugh or cry, "My dear, marriage is another career in your life, don't take it lightly."
An Zhixia nodded solemnly: "Grandma, I know. I will live a good life with Fang Yuan, and live a prosperous life!"
After dinner, the women in the family began to prepare the final dowry for An Zhixia and told her what it was. Jiang Shiming took advantage of the convenience of the Friendship Store to buy a lot of good things from Shanghai: cakes and candies, fabrics suitable for making bed sheets or clothes, clothes for spring, summer, autumn and winter, shoes and hats, etc. Of course, there were also small and beautiful pomegranates, peanuts, longans, dates, lotus pods, etc.
After trying on the clothes she would wear tomorrow, Old Lady Jiang urged An Zhixia to go to bed.
After washing up, Fang Hongye knocked on her door with a pink face and pulled her to sit on the bed. "Xia Xia, you will get married tomorrow and live your own life in your new home. Although you and Zhiqiu don't have a mother, the Jiang family is your mother's family, and your brother and I are also your mother's family.
If you are angry, please come back and tell us. Husbands and wives need to slowly adjust to each other, so don't keep it in your heart and get hurt.
I have only been married to your brother for half a year, so I don't have much experience. But I think you are so smart, you will definitely have a happy marriage and family.
That," she hesitated a little.
An Zhixia was a little curious and said with a smile: "Sister-in-law, just say whatever you want to say. Is there anything we can't talk about?"
Fang Hongye hardened her heart, pulled her close to her ear, and whispered in a mosquito-like voice: "Well, Xia Xia, tomorrow night if, if Fang Yuan wants to do something to you, you, you just let him do it. This is the intimacy between husband and wife, children, children are also born this way."
An Zhixia almost burst out laughing, but she looked puzzled and asked seriously, "Sister-in-law, what is Brother Yuan going to do to me? How did the child come from? Didn't we both lie in the same bed with the lights on, waiting for the Goddess of Childbirth to secretly pass the child from the soles of my feet into my belly?"
Fang Hongye was stunned for a moment. Suddenly, she couldn't accept the omnipotent sister-in-law's ignorant personality. Her face flushed and she kept talking: "Didn't you learn about human anatomy in high school?"
"I learned it. Didn't the Goddess of Fertility send that thing into my belly, and then combine it into a fertilized egg?" An Zhixia tilted her head and asked curiously, "I also asked Brother Yuan, guess what he said?"
"What did you say?" Fang Hongye asked blankly.
"He heard from his parents that the baby was stuffed in through the armpit..." An Zhixia lowered her eyelids, almost unable to hold back tears of laughter, still holding a script and using the silly and innocent words of the male and female protagonists to tease her sister-in-law.
Fang Hongye was so embarrassed that she wanted to cry, but she thought about it and forced herself to continue humming: "Anyway, it's not what you think. Just be honest with each other tomorrow night. Men, all men should be able to do that."
An Zhixia finally laughed out loud. At this time, Fang Hongye realized that she had been fooled by her sister-in-law and could not help but hit her shoulder twice.
"Little girl, you are so mean. If you have this ability, use it on your man. Why are you teasing me?"
"Hey, sister-in-law," she smiled and rested her head on Fang Hongye's shoulder, her eyes sparkling as if they were filled with a galaxy, "When I get married, I'll leave my brother to you. My brother is my brother, he has taken on responsibilities since I was young, protecting and loving me. He actually longs for and cherishes family warmth more than I do. I'm glad that you and the baby in your belly are with him."
Fang Hongye stroked her bulging belly, her eyes and eyebrows were full of tenderness: "We are all people who have tasted bitterness and loneliness, and we will definitely live better than others."
An Zhixia thought she could have a good sleep today, but she tossed and turned in bed and couldn't fall asleep. She suffered from insomnia, a rare condition.
She gently stroked her pounding heart and realized once again that her feelings for Fang Yuan were actually stronger than she had imagined.
She felt herself being dazed for a moment, and then she heard Old Lady Jiang knocking on the door, and she woke up instantly.
