He had just killed a pig today, and there were distinguished guests from the Zhang family. The dinner was quite decent, so nice that he could temporarily forget that the Zhang family was still a poor family.

There are boiled fish, three kinds of pig, and stewed radish with large pork bones. They are all made by my uncle’s chef. Three hard vegetables fill three big pots, which is comparable to the Chinese New Year.

When Zhang Xuan sat down, his eyes were green and shining, and he almost cried with joy. What a land of thousands of miles, what a beautiful woman. I don't like them all at the moment, but I just love eating meat!

During the meal, Ruan Xiuqin said to Zhang Ping: "You ask Ouyang Yong's birth time tomorrow, and I will go to the town to make a horoscope for you."

Unexpectedly, Zhang Ping said excitedly: "Don't waste this money, we already had our fortunes told in town yesterday."

Aunt Zhang Ru smiled and said, "Bazi is still necessary, otherwise how could I marry you?"

Zhang Ping knew that she had been stupid again. She lowered her head and ate quickly without saying anything, but her heart felt as densely sweet as if she had drunk honey.

The next morning, Ouyang Zhu, his wife and Ouyang Yong came to the Zhang family with happy faces, and a matchmaker came with them.

Although Zhang Xuan was from the countryside, he had gone to school early in his previous life and had no idea about the customs of weddings and funerals in the countryside. At this time, he could only sit in the corner of the main room, eating pumpkin seeds and listening to their conversation.

The Ouyang family acted very anxiously, as if they wished they could get the wedding done before the Chinese New Year. It was obvious that the family was quite satisfied with their eldest sister.

But the situation is urgent, and with aunt Zhang Ru here, all the wedding procedures are indispensable, such as the matchmaker's proposal, engagement, and marriage, all of which must be carried out according to the rules.

What she meant was: The Zhang family is in a bit of a state of poverty now, but they must not be looked down upon, otherwise others will think it is selling their daughter.

Ouyang Zhu is the director of the village, and he naturally knows the rules when it comes to dealing with people. Finally, he accepted Zhang Ru's proposal. In the end, he generously expressed that the Ouyang family really liked the girl Zhang Ping and would not give any gifts to her.

It makes people look down upon.

When it came to the bride price, Ruan Xiuqin did not dare to open her mouth. She just asked that it should not be less than 2,000 yuan, because there was no example of it being less than 2,000 yuan in the surrounding areas. She could not disobey her daughter and set a precedent of less than 2,000 yuan, otherwise it would

The base of the tongue was chewed to bits.

Ruan Xiuqin's requirements were extremely low, and in the end she still had no confidence.

She had a feeling in her mind: Lao Zhang's family was well-known as a hard-working family in the village, while Ouyang's family was not to mention top-notch in these ten miles and eight villages, but it was still considered to be an upper-middle-class family. Motorcycles costing several thousand dollars were racing across the hills.

There is also only one portion of Scorpion Baba here, so I just buy it if I want it.

Ruan Xiuqin thinks in a low-key manner that apart from her good-looking skin and diligent hands and feet, her eldest daughter has shortcomings in other aspects, especially compared to her younger siblings, she is not ordinary dull.

After discussing the wedding procedures, the two families came together to talk about the details of the banquet.

Holding a banquet in rural areas is easy to say, but it is neither easy nor simple, because it has many rules, taboos, gossips and petty people.

For example, if you accidentally arrange an elder's seat in a position you are not satisfied with, you will definitely offend a group of people. However, the number of distinguished positions is limited, and there are only a few, but there are so many elders. This is quite a challenge for the host family.

capacity to cope.

When hosting banquets in rural areas these days, unlike later generations of rural chefs who brought their own pots, pans, tables, chairs and benches, they had to borrow everything and ask for help.

Fortunately, there is a good tradition in Shangcun. Each production team has its own system. Whether it is a white matter or a red matter, as long as the owner opens the door, the neighbors will spontaneously come to help.

For example, there are dedicated people who lend tables, chairs and benches, help in the kitchen, load dishes, greet guests and see off guests, wash dishes and make tea, and even burn firewood and set off firecrackers.

People in the village are used to you helping me today and I helping you tomorrow. Every family is willing to pay. They only eat a few meals from the main family without any wages.

At around 11 o'clock in the morning, Yang Ende's mother came to Zhang's house angrily after hearing some news.

The old witch had a straight face, her legs were crossed, her hands were swiveling around her waist, her eyes were wide open, her chin was raised, and she opened her mouth as if she were running on a train, babbling endlessly. She only picked up some mean words, swear words, and dirty words.

The ugly scoldings, especially the name-calling of the widow Ruan Xiuqin, who had a foxy face, were scolded with great vigor, and she danced with joy, hoping to mess up the marriage.

Grandma’s legs! It’s unbearable!

Being bullied so much, Zhang Xuan, who usually had a good temper, was so angry that he really thought there was no man in the house, right? Without saying anything, as soon as his brain was filled with blood, he raised his high-whip leg and kicked him fiercely...

Suddenly she saw Zhang Xuan rushing over like a madman. The old witch was so frightened that she stopped shouting and cursing. She was so scared! She staggered back and even hid behind the watching villagers, not daring to show her head.

Zhang Xuan rushed to the gate and was stopped by the canteen owner and hugged him tightly. Then he was pulled into the main room by Ouyang Zhu and his son who were chasing him.

Zhang Ru patted Zhang Xuan on the shoulder and told her to leave it to her. Then she walked straight to the old witch and started her magical operation, which made everyone in the village dumbfounded.

I saw Zhang Ru asking before arguing: "Do you have a heart disease? Is your blood pressure high? Have you had any surgery on your body? Have you had steel nails? Have you ever had a stillbirth?"

What kind of question is this? The two parties are not on the same channel at all. Yang Ende’s mother, the old witch, was stunned on the spot. She looked at Zhang Ru for a while and didn’t know how to make a sound. She was frightened by Zhang Xuan and shook her subconsciously.

He shook his head.

Bang! A slap in the face.

Bang! Another backhand slap.

Zhang Ru raised his hand and slapped her twice, and said grimly: "You don't even have these amulets, but you dare to come out and act like a monster. You are just asking for death!"

The old witch was stunned by two sudden slaps, 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 violent temper. She is not able to deal with a rural shrew easily, but she immediately takes advantage of her and nails the old witch with her fingers.

forehead, said sharply:

"Today is a great day for my old Zhang family. You are ignorant! If you dare to say one more unlucky word, I will call ten or eight cars of people to smash your three tile-roofed houses tonight and kill you."

The legs are broken and your mouth is sewn shut with needles. If you don’t believe it, try farting now if you dare!”

Yang Ende's mother had heard about Zhang Ru's fierceness from others, and she was disdainful at that time. Now the immersive experience made her liver tremble. Like Zhang Xuan, who didn't even have a full head of hair, he didn't even say hello before taking action.

, I’ll fight if I say so! Too cruel! Too aggressive! This aggressive one wants to eat people!
