Chapter 191

He said: "The Zhou family is generous, and we don't make it difficult for them. The bride price will cost three taels of silver. We will keep two taels, and the remaining one or two will be taken with the second girl. We will bring the dowry with her again. "

  There is a saying in the countryside, if you have money but no money, you can marry a daughter-in-law for the New Year.

   People who are more generous will rush to marry a wife before the winter solstice, so that the new daughter-in-law can save two months after entering the house and get busy after the New Year.

But there are also unlucky days. First, they didn’t choose a good day. Second, like the two of them, they said that they were late to get married. The bride price is taken quickly, and it is normal to finish the banquet in three days.

  In that way, there is an extra labor at home in the beginning of spring, which happens to be busy in spring.

  Some people are mean, even if they say that they are early, they will deliberately reduce the time to get married before and after a small child. One is to save the rations in front of them, and they can also get married before the spring is busy.

  More mean people will choose to get married in the first month after the new year, and the new wife will be busy when she enters the door.

  Seriously, they said they kissed late, and on Thursday Lang was not young, the Fang family was really worried that Zhou’s family would choose to marry after the new year, so that the two girls would go down as soon as they entered the house, and they would have to adapt to the new life of the parents-in-law.

  The Zhou family can take the initiative to postpone the day to May, which shows that they are very considerate of them.

  The Zhou family is generous, and the Fang family is not unreasonable. When the two parties go back and forth through the matchmaker, the details of the marriage are finalized.

  At the moment, the bride price of three taels of silver is not small, but it is not too much. Given the family background, only three taels is considered less.

  Qian had calculated that in addition to the bride price, there are also banquets and some gifts needed for marriage. A total of five or two is almost the same.

  Originally, after Thursday Lang gambled, she estimated that the cost of marrying him a good daughter-in-law would be between seven and nine.

  There is no way, the quality of the groom is too low, so it can only be made up with a bride price.

  Fortunately, Chu Lang didn't go to the house at this point. He cheated on his face and mouth. Oh, no, I found Fang Xiaoniang, a high-quality bride.

  Gongzhong doesn’t have the money now, especially after moving into a new house at home.

  Not long after Man Bao recovered from his illness, the carpenter Lao Zhou found finally delivered all the custom-made furniture.

Put a bed in each room. The little Qians also used the fabric they bought to make the quilt, stuffed the cotton, plus some bamboo furniture woven by Tue Lang, put it inside, and they chose it at home. I entered the new house on a good day.

  Of course it was for drinking. Lao Zhoutou received a wave of gift money, but the gift money was basically the same as the money spent on the banquet, so he had neither a loss nor a surplus.

  So the money box, which originally only had more than 200 texts, still only had more than 200 texts.

  Therefore, the three-two beauties given to Fang’s family were borrowed from Zhou Xi, and Qian also borrowed two more to prepare for the banquet in May.

  Because until the autumn harvest, she estimates that there will be no large sums of income at home.

  This debt, although Lao Zhoutou has been clamoring for Chu Lang to pay it by himself, it is actually impossible.

  And on the night before Xiaonian's appointment, Lao Zhoutou also held a family meeting on the matter.

"The fourth child is not a weapon. Last year he lost 15 taels of silver, but he returned this year. The money he owes you is also with us, and all the houses he built before have been taken out." Old Zhoutou said: "This Part of the account is for me and your mother, and I will return it to you when the father-in-law becomes rich."

  No one has an opinion.

Old Zhoutou continued: "Although I said that the fourth child has to pay back the money he paid for his marriage, all you marrying a daughter-in-law are the money paid by the father-in-law. Me and your mother pay it back."

  Zhou Xi opened her mouth, but finally did not speak.

Lao Zhou looked at Chu Lang and said: "If you marry a daughter-in-law, you will be an adult. Maybe you will be a father anytime. If you work hard, you have to have some success in your heart. If you are like this, I will smoke you. "

  Thursday Lang responded lowly.

  Things are so set.

  Because the money box has a small amount of money, the year passed a bit lightly. In order to save money, Qian had eliminated a lot of necessary expenses.

  Like meat.

  In the past New Years, except last year when he lost his family property because of Thursday Lang's gambling, Qian bought a batch of meat to make bacon.

  Not only can it be eaten at home, but it can also be taken away from relatives.

  This year is the same as last year, and there is no meat at home.

  But it’s not the same as last year. Although there are still a lot of delicious food missing this year, everyone is very happy because they moved into a new house.

  Especially Manbao and a group of small ones, every day is as happy as the holidays.

She moved into her new house. Although Lao Zhou took her money and didn’t give her an extra-large bed, she also got a normal-sized bed, which was simpler than the self-built house where I was sleeping. The version cot is much better.

  Man Bao couldn't help but flicked on the bed before going to see the furnishings of the room.

  Tuesday Lang works hard every day to make bamboo weaving. In addition to the bamboo baskets and dustpans that are sold in the market, he can also use them at home.

  For example, a bamboo screen is placed in Manbao’s room to separate the inner room from the study room.

  Because he knows that Man Bao likes all kinds of flowers and plants, Tue Lang also asked her to paint on a bamboo screen and put it in the room after it was dried.

In addition, Lao Zhoutou gave her a dressing table and two chairs, one in front of the dressing table and the other in front of the desk.

  The desk was also paid by Lao Zhou to ask the carpenter to use it. He had a family meeting a long time ago and announced that these things will be full of treasures in the future.

  It can be said that Manbao’s room is the most expensive and the most fully furnished.

  Zhou Dalang and Tue Lang also made a three-lattice bookshelf for her out of bamboo and placed it next to the desk.

   Then she made two cages with bamboo for her to put clothes and various sundries.

  Of course, bamboo woven things are naturally inferior to wood, but for a girl who has not left the pavilion, especially a girl who is six or seven years old, these things are very precious.

  Man Bao was very happy anyway.

  So even if she can only eat a few meals of meat during the New Year, she is happy every day.

  Too happy that she forgot to avoid suspicion, she ran up and down with Bai Shanbao every day, even on the first day of the new year, she gathered around the village to pay New Year's greetings, and then received a lot of red envelopes.

  Of course, most of the red envelopes the villagers put in are only a penny, but Man Bao is also very happy.

   Then when she was happy, she went to Bai's New Year's Eve together with her behind Bai Shanbao's ass.

  Of course, Master Bai would not give them only a penny. What he gave them was an exquisite purse, and what was in the purse was a golden naked child printed with Jinshi and Dai.

  Man Bao didn't pay attention at the time. She felt that the purse was particularly beautiful, and she looked at it carefully.

  Master Bai likes Man Bao very much and thinks she is a very clever child, so he deliberately brought the second son over, and solemnly handed it over to the two clever children and said: "You want to take your brother to play, don't leave him behind."

  Bai Shanbao and Man Baocai received gifts. Although they didn't want to play with this stupid classmate, they still patted their chests and said that they would play with him friendly.
