Zhao Dawen felt even more uncomfortable. Sitting at the same table with his son-in-law already made him feel uneasy, and those people kept talking about Dashu. The fact that he didn't overturn the table and run away showed his good character.
There was really nothing to talk about with a bunch of peasants, and he hardly answered any questions. The food on the table made him feel dizzy, and he barely touched his chopsticks the entire time, his face sullen until the end of the banquet.
This family is so dishonorable, it makes me so angry!
In fact, the man was not deliberately trying to embarrass them. This was already a marriage he had carefully arranged.
There was not a single copper coin left at home, and he had tried to borrow money from outside, but his family was so poor that even if he married the daughter of a scholar, the villagers were very reluctant to lend him money.
But everyone was short of money, and he could understand that, as their village was the poorest among the eight villages.
Although no one lent us money, today's food was brought in by everyone. Many people came to help before daybreak. How could the vegetables in our vegetable garden be enough to serve so many tables?
He could see that the Zhao family was dissatisfied, but he really tried his best.
Fortunately, Mr. Zhao San did not come to the capital city. He did not feel any regret, but instead felt a sense of relief.
It's better not to come. If you come, he won't know how to entertain you. Are there enough vegetables? Not even a drop of wine or water.
It can be seen that the Zhao family members live a very decent life. Compared with them, the clothes they wear today are very different.
This is just what ordinary people wear. No wonder people say that they want to marry someone from the old sow village.
He glanced at his little daughter and decided to discuss with his wife when she grew up whether he could find a husband for her in her parents' home.
I heard that every household in Laomuzhu Village has savings and no one goes hungry. Because of Zhao Laosan's support, they all live a good life.
"Hehehe!" The young official wanted to laugh and couldn't help but giggle a few times.
Zhao Dawen frowned. What an idiot! Why was he grinning foolishly at the table?
How is Wang's mother going to find a husband? Why does she give all the cats and dogs to her daughter? How will Ruxin live in the future?
This family seems to have a really hard time.
It’s not my daughter’s fault that she’s been finding fault every day lately, it’s him who’s going crazy too.
At this moment, Zhao Dawen felt sorry for his daughter and did not blame her at all for her bad temper in the past.
After all, I grew up in a county town and have always had good vision. It is normal that I can't stand such a big gap.
She has been wronged!
After the wedding banquet, Wang came into the room, said a few words to Zhao Ruxin, and then left.
After everyone left, Zhao Ruxin left the house. She felt really bad looking at the dilapidated, low-rise earthen house. She felt even worse seeing the poor appearance of the family of four. She had lost face today.
"We're getting married today, can't you dress nicer?"
The Yan family had an instinctive fear of Zhao Ruxin, mainly because they felt that they could not compare to her, so they were a little timid.
Several people lowered their heads and kept silent. Zhao Ruxin got angry when she saw how cowardly they looked.
The little girl looked up and said, "Don't be angry, mother. We only have the clothes on our backs, nothing else."
Zhao Ru felt dizzy. Only one set of clothes?
"You don't take a shower?"
How could she sleep with him? Wouldn't he stink to death?
"Wash it. Hang the clothes outside after washing. It's hot now and they will dry overnight." Yan Hu explained quickly, fearing that his wife would think he was dirty and would not let him get on the kang.
"We all took a bath yesterday, and we'll take a bath tonight too."
Zhao Ruxin: ...
She was really shocked. What kind of family is this?!
It’s okay, it’s okay, Zhao Ruxin tried hard to comfort herself. Now that she has money, this family will definitely get better, it will definitely get better.
She was strolling in the yard, and Yan Hu took her to talk to her about the situation at home.
"Why don't you raise pigs? There are too few chickens, only two."
This family seems a bit lazy.
Yan Hu scratched his head. "It's not that I don't want to buy them, but piglets are pretty expensive. I can't afford them. The same goes for chickens. At the time, we only had enough money to buy three chicks, and one died."
So now there are only two.
Zhao Ru's jaw dropped in shock. "How much money do you have in your pocket now?"
"I don't have a penny left. I used to have a little, but I spent it all when I married you."
I think, after all this time, she caused their family to go bankrupt. I don’t know what others think of her when they hear about it. The question is, what did she get?
There's nothing to be gained, okay?
"Would you mind letting me think about how to make money?"
"Hey, we listen to whatever you say!"
Everyone in the village said that since he married the daughter of a scholar, he would have a good life in the future. Sure enough, on the first day after he got married, his wife said that she would help them make money.
Yan Hu finally made it!
The other side.
"What did you find for Ruxin? So that she can marry into the family?"
Before he even got home, Zhao Dawen couldn't help but blame Wang.
Wang was also in a bad mood. "Otherwise, how can I find a good wife for her? There are many families who really don't mind her being a concubine, but the problem is that they want to continue the family line. Do you know how many families would reject our Ruxin just for this reason?"
Not only do unmarried bachelors not want to have a family, but even many widowers don't want to have a family. When they remarry, it's to have children.
Some people say something even more offensive, saying, "How can a woman still be a woman if she can't have children? Just tell me how I can find one. Is it easy to find someone who can wait until today?"
You look down on this family, and you think I can look down on them? They just don't care about the children, and they are too poor to care.
His father, I know what you are thinking. The problem is that my daughter is old enough and can't afford to waste time. Besides, she agreed to this marriage on her own. Did I force her?
Don't blame me every night when something goes wrong. What else do you do at home besides a few crappy books? If you think I can't find it well, why don't you go out and look for it yourself? "
Zhao Dawen was speechless. Wang was really angry and he didn't dare to offend her.
"Okay, I was just nagging you, why are you blowing up like a fuss? My daughter's life is going to be tough, so if it's really tough, please help her out."
"I know. I wouldn't want to let my own daughter starve to death. I accept being poor, but I just hope their family treats Ruxin well."
"If they dare not treat her well, I will skin them alive!"
He couldn't control Mr. Qian, so how could he not control this poor guy?
"Dad, my brother-in-law's family is so poor. Everyone in the village is laughing to death today."
"It's okay if you're poor. When you get better, remember to help her."
"Well, as long as he stays put, we won't let her suffer."
Wang was quite comforted, because after all, her son was the most sensible.
………………
After arriving in the city, Zhao Dashu and his family went straight to the front of the house and bought it. The house had been completely renovated, and although it was not particularly big, it was more than enough for them to live in.
Zhao Dashu jumped off the carriage and looked at the painted red wooden door. The melancholy of parting in his heart was immediately replaced by a sense of freshness.
