MTL - The Great Era of Rebirth: 1993-Chapter 10 , so combative
Chapter 10, so combative
The pig was just killed today, and there were distinguished guests of the Zhang family. The dinner was quite decent, so decent that he could temporarily forget that the Zhang family was still a poor family.
There are boiled fish, three kinds of pigs, and stewed radish with pig bones, all made by the chef of the uncle. Three hard vegetables fill three large pots, which is comparable to the Chinese New Year.
When Zhang Xuan sat down, his eyes glowed green, and he almost cried with joy, what a thousand miles of rivers and mountains, what a beautiful woman who is all over the world, at this moment, I don't like it at all, I like to eat meat!
During dinner, Ruan Xiuqin said to Zhang Ping, "You ask Ouyang Yong's birth time tomorrow, and I'll go to the town and give you a horoscope."
Who knew that Zhang Ping said excitedly: "Don't waste this money, we already fortune-telling in the town yesterday."
Aunt Zhang Ru smiled and said, "I still want the eight characters, otherwise how can I marry you?"
Zhang Ping knew that she was stupid again, so she lowered her head to eat quickly and stopped talking, but her heart was as sweet as honey.
The next morning, the couple Ouyang Zhu and Ouyang Yong came to Zhang's house with a festive look, and a matchmaker came with them.
Although Zhang Xuan is from a village, he went out to study early in his previous life and had no idea about the customs of weddings, funerals, and marriages in the village. At this time, he could only sit in the corner of the main room, nibbling on pumpkin seeds and listening to their conversation.
The Ouyang family was very eager, wishing they could finish the marriage before the new year. It could be seen that their family was quite satisfied with the eldest sister.
But I'm in a hurry. With Aunt Zhang Ru here, the marriage process cannot be missed. For example, the matchmaker proposes marriage, engagement and marriage must all go through the rules.
Her old man's meaning is: Zhang's family is a little down now, but we must not let people look down on it, otherwise people will think that it is selling women.
Ouyang Zhu is the director of the village. He naturally understands the rules when dealing with people, and finally accepts Zhang Ru's proposal. At the end, they made a generous decision to say that their Ouyang family really liked Zhang Ping, and they would not be looked down upon in the dowry.
Speaking of the dowry, Ruan Xiuqin did not dare to open her mouth, but asked that it should not be less than 2,000 yuan, because there is no example of less than 2,000 yuan in the nearby Shili Baxiang. She can't abuse her daughter and open this first for less than 2,000 yuan, or she will be chewed by the tongue.
Ruan Xiuqin’s requirements were extremely low, and in the final analysis, she was still unconvinced.
She has a pole in her heart: the old Zhang family is a well-known hard-working family in the village, and the Ouyang family does not say the top in this ten-mile-eight township, but it is also considered to be among the upper-middle-class families. There is also only one serving of Scorpion Baba, if you say buy it, buy it.
Ruan Xiuqin thinks in a low-key manner that the eldest daughter has shortcomings in other aspects except for her beautiful skin and diligent hands and feet, especially compared to her younger siblings, she is not ordinary.
After discussing the marriage process, the two of them got together and talked about the details of the banquet.
Holding a banquet in rural areas is simple and simple, and it is not simple, because it has many rules, many taboos, many long-tongued women, and many careful eyes.
For example, if you accidentally arrange a certain elder’s seat unsatisfactory, you will offend a vote of people properly. But the honorable position is limited, there are only a few, but there are so many elders, which is quite a test of the main family's ability to bear.
In these days, the countryside is holding a banquet, unlike later generations of village chefs who bring their own pots, pans, pans, tables, chairs, and benches. They have to borrow everything and ask people to help.
Fortunately, Shangcun has a good tradition. Each production team has its own system. Whether it is a white matter or a red matter, as long as the owner opens his mouth, the neighbors will spontaneously come to help.
For example, borrowing tables, chairs and benches, helping the cook, preparing dishes, welcoming and seeing off guests, washing dishes and cooking tea, and even burning firewood and setting off firecrackers have special personnel to do things.
The people in the village are used to helping me today, and I will help you tomorrow. Every family is willing to pay, and they only eat a few meals from the main family, and don’t need wages.
At eleven o'clock in the morning, Yang Ende's mother came to Zhang's house in a hurry after hearing some news.
This old witch has a stern face, her legs are splayed, her hands are folded, her eyes are wide open, her chin is lifted, her mouth is open as if she were running a train, and the barabara is endless. Jin is mean, swearing, and swearing. He deliberately picks up nasty swearing, especially when he scolded widow Ruan Xiuqin by name and surname, with a coquettish face. .
Grandma has a leg! Tolerable or unbearable!
Being bullied at home, Zhang Xuan, who is usually a good-natured person, hates it so much now that he really thinks there is no man at home, right? Without further ado, as soon as his brain was congested, he raised his high whip leg and kicked it fiercely...
Suddenly seeing Zhang Xuan rushing over like he was going crazy, the old witch was so frightened that she stopped screaming and was scared! He staggered back and stepped back, and later even hid behind the villagers watching the fun, daring not to show his face.
When Zhang Xuan rushed to the gate, he was hugged by the canteen owner by the waist, and then pulled into the main room by Ouyang Zhu and his son who were chasing after him.
Zhang Ru patted Zhang Xuan on the shoulder, said to her, and then went straight to the old witch, and started her magical operation, which made everyone in the village dumbfounded.
I saw Zhang Ru ask before he started talking: "Have you had a heart attack? Is your blood pressure high? Have you ever had an operation on your body? Have you ever been nailed? Have you ever had a stillbirth?"
What question is this asking? The two sides are not on the same channel at all. Yang Ende's mother, the old witch, was stunned on the spot. Seeing Zhang Ru for a while, she didn't know how to make a sound, and she subconsciously shook her head when she was frightened by Zhang Xuan.
Snapped! A slap in the front.
Snapped! The backhand is another slap.
Zhang Ru raised her hand with two slaps, and said gloomily: "If you don't have these amulets, you dare to come out and be a demon. It's a New Year's Eve, you're courting death!"
Two sudden slaps, the old witch was beaten and her ears were buzzing.
Zhang Ru is a veteran of the Vietnam War. Although she only works in the logistics department, she has really seen blood. She has a very bad temper. It is not easy to deal with a village shrew. Forehead, he said sharply:
"Today is a great day for my old Zhang's family, you are ignorant! If you dare to say one more unlucky thing, I will call the ten-car eight-car man tonight to smash your three tile-roofed houses and smash you. The legs are discounted, and your mouth is sewed up with needles, if you don’t believe it, you’re going to give it a try now!”
Yang Ende's mother had heard about Zhang Ru's sternness from others, and she was disdainful at that time. The feeling of being on the scene now makes her liver tremble. Like Zhang Xuan, who has not even grown his hair, he doesn't say hello before he starts, but he says he hits! So brutal! So combative! This aggressive man wants to eat people!
