Returning to Mother’s Home (2)

Luo's mother gave birth to two sons first, and finally gave birth to a little girl. Yuxue was also cute, and she was a flower in the village since she was a child. It would be a lie to say that she didn't like it. Besides, if you raise such a handsome girl, you can exchange for a large amount of money for betrothal gifts.

.

When Guixiang grew older, the marriage seekers crossed the threshold. Guixiang somehow fell in love with Xiao Yueshan and started a free love relationship. He had a face with the Chinese character Yueshan and a tall figure with sword-shaped eyebrows and starry eyes. He was simply outstanding among a group of young men. Even Luo's mother was there.

I think my daughter has good taste. However, Luo's father feels that Yueshan's home is in Nanping, and it takes a whole day to go back and forth by bus, which is a bit far. He is not a clerical cadre, so he is afraid that he will not be able to help his family, so he is not happy. In the end,

Luo's mother hammered home the final word: Such a handsome and upright man is definitely not a man in the pool. As long as he can get the gift money required by his family, his daughter will marry him!

In order to collect the betrothal gift, Yueshan went to Xianyun Mountain to hunt and collect mushrooms. Together with the 300 yuan saved by his parents, he collected 800 yuan to marry Guixiang.

Back then, a bride price of eight hundred yuan was already a sky-high price.

Now that the son-in-law she had chosen has indeed become prosperous, Luo's mother is naturally proud.

She called her eldest daughter-in-law and stuffed her with 50 yuan and meat coupons, and asked her to buy some fish and meat to entertain her daughter.

Lu Ying was stunned and couldn't believe it: "Why are there so many?"

Luo's mother whispered: "The money and tickets were all given by Guixiang."

Lu Ying was stunned for a long time before she smacked her lips and asked, "Is my brother-in-law's family getting rich?"

Luo's mother said happily: "We'll talk about it tonight. You go buy some meat first."

So Lu Ying bought five kilograms of short ribs and six kilograms of pork belly, which cost less than thirty. Before dark, Zhiyuan and his son returned home from fishing and brought back a lot of seafood of various colors. When she heard that her sister was back, she was so happy that she immediately checked

I ordered seafood to entertain the girls.

In the main room, the whole family was divided into two tables, one for the elders and one for the juniors.

Guixiang wanted to show off, so she took the initiative to serve. Lingmei cooked the side dishes, and she cooked the dishes. Boiled squid, tomato seafood soup, steamed scallops with vermicelli. With short ribs in black bean sauce and braised pork, two tables were filled.

The adults were happy, and the children were as excited as if they were celebrating the New Year.

Brothers Zhiqiang and Zhiyuan sipped rice wine and ate seafood. They kept praising their sister's cooking skills, which were getting better and better, and she could keep up with the restaurants in the town. A big pot of tomato seafood soup was snatched away.

Luo's mother looked at her daughter unexpectedly: "You have grown a lot this year. In time for my son's wedding tomorrow, you will be in charge."

Guixiang said happily: "Is Ziqiu engaged?"

Ziqiu blushed.

Lu Ying smiled and said: "It hasn't been decided yet. The bride price will be high."

Guixiang asked: "Which family is the girl from?"

"The girl from a nearby town. Her surname is Ye, and her name is Jingzhen." Lu Ying frowned, "She is a talented person, beautiful and capable. She is also a salesperson in a state-owned department store. So this gift-" She stretched out her palm and turned it over

twice.

Guixiang said: "1,000 yuan? That's not bad."

"It's ten thousand!" Luo's mother sighed, "They also want a TV and a refrigerator."

Guixiang was shocked: Ten thousand? Are you selling your daughter?! You also need a TV and a refrigerator? How much does that cost?

"No. We have already asked someone. A TV costs 500 yuan, and a double-door refrigerator is more expensive, costing 700 yuan. And you can't buy it if you have money, so you have to find someone to help." Lu Ying

Sighing. "Why is it getting harder and harder to get married now?"

Guixiang blurted out: "Money is not a problem."

Everyone in the Luo family fixed their surprised eyes on Guixiang's face. Guixiang puffed up her chest proudly: "Mom, eldest brother and sister-in-law. As long as you can get the money for the TV and refrigerator, I will pay for it."

Lu Ying was overjoyed: My sister-in-law’s family is so prosperous!

Guixiang's ears were instantly filled with laughter and compliments. She turned around proudly and met the indifferent eyes of Ling Mei who was eating at the small table.

Even Ling Hui looked at him displeased.

She suddenly shook her head and came back to her senses.

Have you been overconfident?

Thinking about it again, what is one or two thousand yuan? It was only natural for her to subsidize her natal brother. So she pretended not to see her son's displeasure and continued to drink and eat with her brother.

After dinner, Zhiqiang, who was a little drunk because of his happiness, stood up and said, "Zixuan, clear the table while Zichun and Lingmei wash the dishes and cook the pots."

He has long disliked Lingmei. She used to be quite well-behaved, but this year she has become so shameless. Sitting together with his nephews, they even grabbed the meat and vegetables in the bowl, which was not polite at all. He didn't look at his family's food.

Did Zichun stop moving his chopsticks after eating two bites of meat?

Zichun Zixuan immediately responded. Lingmei looked at her mother without saying a word.

Those who come are guests.

She, a guest, had cooked the food for a long time and still had to wash the dishes and cook the pots. This uncle could really speak his mind.

Seeing that Lingmei was motionless, everyone was a little embarrassed for a moment. Zhiqiang said displeased: "What's going on? My uncle doesn't listen to what he says? Guixiang, how did you teach your daughter?"

Guixiang stood up and winked at her daughter. She didn't want Mei to smile and said to her mother: "You don't have enough food, clothing and money to send your daughter to be a servant?"

These words were too harsh. Except for Brother Linghui, everyone in the room instantly turned pale.

Guixiang was shaken: "You, what are you talking nonsense about?"

Lingmei looked at Luo Mu's frightened and angry face and said calmly: "Grandma, didn't my mother tell you? I bred the rapeseed, I found the restaurant, and I got the clothes at home.

I earned most of the money.”

Before Luo's mother could answer, Zhiqiang slammed the table: "Fart! I want to ask Xiao Yueshan how he raised you, a little girl! If you dare to be disrespectful to your elders, believe it or not, I will beat you to death?!"

Lu Ying also sneered at the side: "Sister, you should be taught a lesson as a girl, you are always talking nonsense."

Zhiyuan and his wife reconciled: "Brother, you, an elder, have the nerve to argue with Lingmei? Besides, I am a guest——"

"Do you know that my uncle is older than God?" Zhiqiang slapped the table, "Xiao Lingmei, if you don't wash the dishes today, believe it or not, I'll beat your parents until they don't recognize you?"

Ling Yun cried loudly: "Uncle bullies others, uncle bullies others——"

Guixiang hugged Ling Yun and coaxed her: "If you don't cry, I won't bully you!"

Although Ling Hui didn't like Ling Mei's pressure on him everywhere, he couldn't stand the arrogant attitude of his uncle's family. He slapped his chopsticks and said coldly: "What my sister said is true. The money at home is indeed

She earned it all in some way. Mom, please explain it clearly to uncle."

Guixiang laughed: "Brother, Lingmei's temper is a bit stubborn. You--ah, mother, what are you doing?"

Mother Luo jumped out with a livid face. She hit Zhiqiang hard with a feather duster: "You bastard, you will go crazy after drinking some wine. Lingmei is a guest, a guest! How can there be any reason to let guests work?"

Zhiqiang was beaten so hard by his mother that he sobered up a little bit from the wine: "Mom, don't hit me, don't hit me. It hurts, hiss--"

Luo's mother continued to slap him: "You have the nerve to tell Yueshan how to teach your children, but you are not afraid of Yueshan asking who taught you how to treat guests! Don't think that you can act recklessly when you are drunk. I won't do this!"

Zhiqiang was beaten by his mother until he screamed wildly.
