At lunch, there was a table for men and a table for women. At the men’s table, Liao Guanglai toasted vigorously to the Liang brothers. Even Liang Yougen was toasted and drank several glasses.

He used this method to vent his dissatisfaction with Awen.

Because Liao Guanglai is the magistrate of Qinghe County and is about to become an in-law, the brothers are not good drinkers, and their combined drinking capacity is not enough for Liao Guanglai to go back and forth several times.

Even Liang Jiahua was forced to drink a drink, and now his eyes were hazy and his face was drunk.

Seeing the county magistrate avenging his personal revenge in such a public way, Awen gritted her teeth and stared at him like knives.

His father is still sick, and his brother is still a child. For a county magistrate who is very preoccupied, I really don’t know how he can secure this position.

Liao Guanglai looked at the knife Awen threw at him, calmed down a little, calmed down, and slowly started eating.

Well, the food cooked by the Liang family’s daughter-in-law tastes pretty good.

After finishing her work in the kitchen, Mrs. Zhu came over and looked at Awen's stinky face. She reached out and slapped her. It didn't hurt but she was very embarrassed.

"Mom, why did you hit me?"

Zhu's face was a bit ugly and he glared at her: "Your eldest brother-in-law is here to hire someone today. Who are you showing your shameful face to? Do you think you should be beaten?"

Awen felt aggrieved. She looked in the direction of Liao Guanglai from the corner of her eye and saw that he was laughing so wildly that his teeth grinded loudly.

She gritted her eight teeth and looked at Mr. Zhu with a smile: "Is this okay?"

Mrs. Liao at the table burst into laughter and almost burst into tears.

Liang Jiafen hurriedly came over to plead for mercy: "Third aunt, Awen is still young, she's fine."

"Yes, yes, Awen is still young, it's a child's nature." Mrs. Liao, who had smiled, also begged even more. It was really the girl's smile just now that made her happy.

Mrs. Wang was busy pushing Mrs. Zhu to sit down to eat, and Xu Chunhua also scolded her in a low voice: "On the big day, teach the children when the guests have left."

Zhu quickly responded.

After seeing off the Liao family in the afternoon, A-wen was speechless looking at the drunken Liang family men.

This county magistrate is too vindictive and not a gentleman at all.

The men have all gone back to their houses to sleep, and the women are cleaning up the kitchen. No, it should be said that only the Wang family and Zhu family are cleaning up. Grandma Xu Chunhua has gone back to her house long ago.

Awen took Liang Jiali directly to Liang Jiafen's room. The aunt didn't ask her to work today, saying that she was the protagonist today.

The betrothal gifts given by the Liao family were not very expensive, probably because considering their status as farmers, they could not afford too much dowry for their daughter.

A box of cotton cloth with very beautiful colors and novel designs, a box containing jade articles such as jewelry and house decorations, a box containing five thousand taels of cash, and a small box.

When it was delivered before, I opened two boxes, but no one paid much attention to it. After all, it was already considered expensive, and with the county magistrate here, many of the Liang family were a little cautious.

Liang Jiafen didn't want the promised marriage to cause great harm to her parents, so she didn't need to open it, as she would have to return it later.

The first two boxes are already considered valuable to a farmer, and a box of jewelry ornaments is even more valuable.

This may not be a big deal to the Liao family, but for the Liang family, it is a big deal in their hearts.

The man's family would pay such a heavy betrothal gift only if they like the girl's family. The most important thing is that they can't give their daughter more in dowry.

Awen looked at Yinzi with envy in her eyes, but she was more curious about the contents of the box.
