A Guang was speechless for a moment.
This is indeed a problem...
"Do you have to be laughed at?"
"If it were you, when you were five, six, seven or eight years old, and the children in the village came up to you and laughed at you, saying that your brother and sister got married, what would you do? Children also have shame."
Aguang was silent for a moment.
"Your family is also a big family in the village now, and is well-known in the whole village. It is considered prestigious, right? I think you have to ask your father whether this was his idea or Aunt Ma's. It's really true!
Is he so happy that he has another son?"
These past few months have been full of trouble.
He didn't want to talk much at first. It was not his turn to speak about his own family affairs and who his sister was going to marry.
However, he saw that Aguang seemed a little unresponsive. He didn't know if he didn't think too much about it, or he was too busy with the recent loan to pay attention.
I originally thought that A Guang was opposed to it, so he just took it as a joke and even said a few funny words to laugh at him.
"Let me ask you again, can't Dongqing get married? Do you think it's a good idea to build a family?"
"No, what young man from all over the country doesn't dream of marrying my sister home?"
"Then why mention Lin Jianshe? What's good about him? Tell me what's good about him? At best, he knows the basics. To put it bluntly, his family is in ruins. It doesn't matter what he wants, and your family doesn't need to marry in, right?"
There was something even more unpleasant, which he was embarrassed to say. After all, Aguang and Lin Jianshe were family members.
"I didn't think about it. I listened to it the night before yesterday. I was shocked and hadn't digested it yet. I went out the next day and only came back last night."
"What did Holly say?"
"She is probably still confused. The little girl is thin-skinned and doesn't have big ideas. My father asked her to think about it for a few days. Anyway, there is no rush. We will wait until after the new year. But I heard that Aunt Ma has already gone to see the date this morning."
"Damn it! That's awesome! You are also confused. I'll call my mother over and talk to you."
Are you going to see the date?
Then doesn’t this immediately make it solid? Damn it, this is stupid.
"say what……"
"You have no female elders in your family since you were a child. The three brothers and sisters grew up freely. You don't hear much about the shortcomings of the east-west family. I'll call my mother over to talk about it and analyze it for you?"
Ye Yaodong thought that maybe Aguang didn't have a wife since he was a child, so he didn't know how powerful it was, and this would lead to a house fight.
When I heard this idea, I guess it was probably the stepmother who came up with it.
A widow with a bunch of children married a wealthy old man. Now she has a worry-free life, more hope for her life, her children have jobs, and they have a secure pension.
He even gave birth to a son, and his future inheritance will be settled. He can get half of the family property, which is really bad luck.
And now when my son gets married, he can get a very good daughter-in-law for free, and he can also increase his family fortune. It’s really unbelievable.
"Ah Jiang!"
Ye Yaodong shouted loudly to Ye Chengjiang, who was fighting for a motorcycle with Ye's father.
As soon as Ye Chengjiang heard Ye Yaodong calling him, he immediately ran over without saying a word, "What's the matter with Third Uncle? Just say you'll die through fire and water, and I won't hesitate."
"You're stupid. Go to the village committee and call your grandma back. Run faster."
"Okay, right now, I'll go on my motorcycle."
"Don't show off, hurry up and run. In the village, there are all gravel roads. Your feet are not faster than riding a motorcycle?"
"Oh okay."
"You call your mother over and let her know. Doesn't the whole village know?"
"Are you afraid that the whole village will know about it? Do you know that it won't sound good if you tell this?"
"Well, I just didn't think about it too much. I knew psychologically that it was really not good. I just thought that the builders were okay and they were not outsiders..."
"Tell me, if his mother didn't marry your father, that would be fine. Being poor is no problem, and being three years older would be no problem. The key is, his mother is your stepmother and gave birth to your father's youngest son. What if?
If you marry your sister again, your family might as well change their surname to Lin."
Originally, his parents were interested in his family because they thought that since the population was simple and there was no mistress, Huimei could be the master of the house and there would be no worries.
Cheng Yaojin suddenly appeared on the way and gave birth to a son, and he was still planning on getting his own way?
Then let Lao Pei get married.
If Huimei hadn't married him, he would have only regarded it as a joke. This was simply the biggest drama of the year, second only to the double fly in the Mouse family.
Aguang was silent and thinking.
Ye Yaodong didn't say anything, letting him figure it out for himself.
He waited for his mother to run over in a hurry before he stood up and pulled her into the house. His mother's voice was a bit loud.
"What are you doing? You called me back in a hurry. I thought there was something urgent. A Jiang kept urging me to run faster. This bastard took your words as an edict?"
"Mom, Lao Pei wants to marry Dongqing to Jianshe!"
"Ah, it's none of my business. Her daughter will marry whoever she marries, and she's not my daughter." Mother Ye glared at him inexplicably, shook him off, and wanted to walk out. "I thought there was something big going on.
…”
Ye Yaodong grabbed his mother again, "That Jianshe is Aunt Ma's son."
Mother Ye's eyes widened, "Who? Whose son? Which construction?"
"Lao Pei wants to marry his daughter to his stepson."
Ye Mu was shocked and turned to look at A Guang.
A Guangsan explained with a smile, "I haven't decided yet, so I just mentioned that I would ask for their opinions first..."
"My dear? Isn't this a mess? Is it a mess?" Mother Ye didn't dare to say those two words. After all, she was still a yellow-flowered girl, so it was a bit ugly to say it.
She slapped her thigh fiercely and said, "Confused, is this in-laws old and confused? Are you ashamed? Are you confused by that old woman? Can you come up with such a bad idea?"
"It's not like I can't get married, so why should I marry my stepson? This has to be done for a lifetime. How will Dongqing be able to hold her head up when meeting people? Everyone will have to talk about her behind her back."
"Your family is also one of the most respectable people in the village. You have to laugh at people during the Chinese New Year. Do you think there are not enough jokes in the village?"
"When I married a wife at an early age and gave birth to a son who was the same age as my grandson, people could praise him for being old and strong. But now for his stepson to marry his daughter, his spine will be broken."
A Guang was also awakened, "I was thinking about other things at the time, so I didn't think much about it..."
"If you have a stepmother, you have a stepfather. The old saying is absolutely true. You'd better separate the family as soon as possible. Lao Pei has a younger son, and the older ones like you are not important anymore."
"It's not like you can't get married. Dongqing's conditions are so good. She can be a cadre. Why do you want to marry someone with a poor household registration?"
"Without your father marrying my wife, their whole family would have been miserable. Now that you are the master, you dare to worry about the eldest lady and give her face? Whose idea is it? It must be the stepmother's idea.
, all the abacus beads fell off my face."
"From stepmother to mother-in-law, I can immediately take control of your whole family. Damn, that old woman is so damn smart."
"I guess hooking up with your father was premeditated! Even if I'm looking for a long-term job, now I can swallow up your family."
"Bah, once I marry your sister, she will have the final say in the family. She becomes a stepmother and becomes a mother-in-law, so she doesn't have to be careful anymore.
Ye Mu pulled A Guang, "You have to be smarter and don't let me fool you. If you marry your sister to a poor family, you will have no room to regret it."
"It's definitely not your father who came up with this idea. Your father is so confused by the wind blowing from his pillow. After giving birth to a son, he will become the hero of your family. You have to listen to her plans in everything? From now on, you will still be there.
Position? The youngest son must be the most favored, and his own mother is still blowing the pillow."
Ye Yaodong interrupted and reminded: "Mom, it may be too late. His stepmother ran to see the date this morning."
"What? You've already gone to see the date, this old goblin..." Mother Ye said several swear words in a hurry.
She pushed A Guang, "Why are you still standing there like this? Hurry up and go home to stop me. When I come back after watching the day, I will spread the word to my neighbors and the matter will be settled. From now on, you will still be in this family.
What's up?"
A Guang hurriedly ran home. He just ran out of the courtyard and turned back. "Put the child here. You can take a look."
"Go quickly, the child can't be lost."
Ye's mother cursed, "You're an old guy who can't stop being old. He can still pop up when he's old, and he's plotting against his family..."
"If this happens, won't Lao Pei's whole family have to work for her to earn money? Shameless old woman..."
"You have both people and money. If there is a problem in the future, can your mother's family come to support you? You have to swallow all the hardships. The old woman has the final say in that family."
"Lao Pei used to look shrewd, but now he's partial to his armpits. The small ones are treasures, and the big ones are trash. He's even more partial than the elders in the family, and his beams are almost crooked..."
Ye Yaodong saw that his mother was scolding louder and louder, so he pulled her and said, "Why don't you come and have a look? Huimei is inexperienced. She didn't even go home to say anything when she knew about this. The couple probably didn't think too much about it."
"Yes, I have to go take a look and listen. I can't let the two of them suffer. It would be too bad to tell them..."
"Mom, please call some women from the Women's Federation."
Mother Ye glanced at him appreciatively, "Yes, this matter must be taken care of. How can a daughter marry a son? If you say it, don't cause chaos..."
She walked out quickly, first went to the village committee to call two or three women, and then they went to Aguang's house together.
Ye Yaodong was too embarrassed to go along to watch the fun. They were really not suitable to get involved in this matter. They could only wake up a few words.
Lin Xiuqing came back from her work in the workshop and saw him sitting at the door looking into the distance as if something was wrong. He didn't have the leisurely attitude before, so she felt a little curious.
"What are you looking at? Who are you waiting for?"
"No, I'm telling you..."
Ye Yaodong pulled her to sit on the stool next to her, and then told Ah Qing what happened just now.
Lin Xiuqing was extremely shocked, "Ah? This is all possible, can you imagine this? Dongqing can marry someone better..."
"It's better to marry someone who is worse than a stepbrother."
"Mom has passed? I'll go take a look too."
"Ah, would you like to go over and have a look? Then I'll go too."
Got company!
He is not alone in this.
"Absolutely. Mom has asked people to come over, so why not make a big fuss? The neighbors must have come to watch the fun, so what's the secret?"
"Then take the twins and Pei Yu and send them back just in time. There is a reason."
The couple hurried to take care of their children. Father Ye looked at their actions and asked curious questions before following them.
When they entered the village, they saw the aunties sitting on the roadside eating melon seeds. They were very leisurely and did not talk about the matter of Lao Pei's family. They thought it was settled peacefully.
Unexpectedly, when we walked to the road at the entrance of the village, we saw that the door of Aguang's house on the road ahead was already crowded with people.
After they looked at each other, some held their children and some pushed the stroller, and they all started running.
As soon as I got closer, I heard his mother's loud voice.
"How did I get involved in your family's family affairs? I am a member of the village Women's Federation. What you did is not honest, why don't you let others talk about it?"
"Whose daughter married the son? The stepson is also a son. If he talks about it, he will be stabbed in the spine. How can such a thing happen in our civilized village?"
They quickly stood in the crowd and listened.
"It's your turn to speak about my own affairs..."
"If you don't do things that poke people in the spine, we won't talk to you."
"Do you want to cause trouble? We are marrying in our own family, and it won't hinder anything in the village?"
"There are still slogans painted on the walls outside. We should promote the Five Stresses and Four Beauties, strengthen the construction of citizen morals and social customs, and improve the spiritual civilization level of the whole society. They are all still printed on the walls of your home."
"What a mess..."
"If you have nothing to do, just read more and read more newspapers. What kind of society is it now? Not only does your daughter marry a son, but it is an arranged marriage. It affects the atmosphere of our whole village. No one does this in feudal society. We are now a modern society.
socialist society.”
Ye Yaodong looked at his father in surprise, "Is my mother so powerful? She is so enlightened and doesn't read the newspaper less?"
Everyone knows that the job is online.
"So it's helpful to read more newspapers and stop swearing."
"Go, go, as long as our family is happy, we don't need you as an outsider to interfere..."
Aguang pulled Dongqing out and said: "We are not happy. We only mentioned it as a joke. I didn't expect everyone to see the joke. Don't worry about this. Dongqing already has a partner.
, not construction.”
As he spoke, he smiled and spread his hands, inviting the neighbors out, "If there is a wedding reception at home, I will treat the neighbors to wedding candies and melon seeds."
Aunt Ma quit and dragged him, "Where did Dongqing find her partner? Don't talk nonsense, she and Jianshe are both compatible. She is a prosperous family, a prosperous husband and a prosperous son. I have watched everything this morning.
, just wait until after the new year to have a wedding reception."
A Guang's face turned dark immediately, "When did the horoscopes merge? Why didn't I know? The horoscopes need to be aligned for three days to be safe and sound. You did it three days ago? You only told us the night before when you finished the horoscope?"
"
Aunt Ma was a little unreasonable, her arrogance became smaller, and she spoke in a low voice, "I'm not thinking about getting married in advance. If there's nothing else to do, I won't mention it. If something happens, don't mention it if it's inappropriate, so as not to let the two children know what's going on.
awkward."
Aguang looked at his father, "Did you know this a long time ago? Did you know that she had already combined her horoscopes?"
"What your aunt said makes sense. It's okay if the horoscopes are combined. It's no problem. Only then can we tell them and let them know. Otherwise, if it's not appropriate, it will only be awkward after saying it."
Ye's mother said loudly: "Look, the two children don't even know that they want to marry each other, and their horoscopes are already matched. How can such a thing happen to this family? You really plan to arrange an arranged marriage, and you are not in the old society."
Father Pei had a straight face and said seriously: "My mother-in-law, please don't interfere. You can go back. We can communicate on our own family matters."
"I also want you to do human affairs. To put it bluntly, you are a mess. How could this happen in the village? My dear, you are confused."
"You are a well-known person in our village now. It doesn't sound good to say that your stepson will marry your daughter. It's not like you can't get married, and your family has to deal with it?"
"What a good girl Dongqing is. She can marry a cadre. Just like Yingqiu, you can have a bright face if you marry a navy soldier."
Aunt Ma glared at Ye's mother, "Who doesn't do human affairs? I'm talking to my mother-in-law, this is our family's family affairs. Don't interfere in other people's family affairs. If you don't like this, you should take care of your own sons and daughters first.
"
"What's wrong with my son and daughter? My son and daughter are very good. They only want to earn face for me and grow my face."
A Guang looked at Father Pei with a disappointed look on his face, "Dad, what you did is not honest. Don't you need to let me know about such a big thing? My own sister's marriage..."
Aunt Ma stood next to Father Pei, "Didn't I say that the day before yesterday?"
"I told Dongqing to think about it the day before yesterday, and we'll talk about it later in the year. What are you doing today to check the date immediately? Behead first and tell later. You have to marry even if you don't want to marry? Why, it's not you who has the final say in this family."
"Of course it's not me who has the final say. Your father has the final say in this family. Your father agreed, and the matter is settled."
"Having given birth to a son, my back has become stiffer? My voice has become louder. I used to be cautious and flattering. Is this awesome now?"
"Okay!" Father Pei raised his voice, "Don't let outsiders see the joke. If anything happens, let's close the door and talk about it ourselves."
"You also know that this matter will be laughed at? The villagers have heard it and all know it. We have to explain this matter clearly in front of everyone, otherwise we won't know what the news will be like when we look back. Do you think Holly is really
What does it have to do with construction, so why do you want your daughter to marry your stepson? How will she behave when she goes out, and how will she find her husband's family?"
"She is willing to do so. She is getting married, not you. What are you objecting to here?"
A Guang looked at Dongqing standing in the corner, "Are you willing?"
Holly shook her head and whispered, "I don't want to."
"Hey? Why are you like this? When I told you the day before yesterday, you didn't say anything. Is it her?" Aunt Ma pointed at Ye Mu.
"It's a troublemaker in the family, and you get involved in other people's affairs. What does it have to do with you? Our family is already fine..."
Ye Huimei stood in front of her mother, "You are..."
Mother Ye pulled her back, protected her behind her, pointed at Aunt Ma and scolded her.
"You are the one who disturbed the family. You made good calculations. You took care of the old one and gave birth to a younger one. Now your back is straight and you want to eat swan meat like a toad."
"You want to change from a stepmother to a mother-in-law, and control the whole family to death, but think that no one knows your wishful thinking? Who do you think is a fool?"
"They are all young and have no mother-in-law to teach them. They don't know many things and have grown up in a daze. You can fool the old ones and the young ones. How can you fool us?"
"Let me tell you folks, who is the troublemaker and is trying to get his own way?"
"Let your son marry Dongqing. This whole family has to be decided by you. It all depends on your face. You might as well let them all have the surname Lin."
"This abacus is so rubbish on my face, why not just kick Aguang's family out while the folks are here? This family will be yours, and all the property belongs to your eldest son and younger son.
."
Mother Ye pointed at her sharply and scolded her, without giving anyone a chance to interrupt, and she didn't even breathe.
She has never lost to scolding, it just depends on whether she wants to scold or not.
Father Pei's face turned dark when he heard this, and he glanced at Ma Lifang several times.
"You slanderer, who thinks this? I'm doing it for her own good. Marrying a man from outside can't be good at building a good relationship. You know the basics and we grew up together, so building a good relationship..."
"Fuck your mother, marry your son, and on Qingming Festival next year, you will have to lead your whole family to visit the grave of the man in front of you and kowtow."
Ye Yaodong secretly gave his mother a thumbs up. These words were extremely scolding and a critical blow!
Lao Pei's face was ashen and he glared at Ma Lifang fiercely!
Ye Mu's words were like piercing his lung tube, straight into his heart.
Asking his youngest daughter and son to visit Ma Lifang's ex-husband's grave and kowtow is a slap in his face.
Ma Lifang looked ugly, "You're talking nonsense, you bitch, what's wrong with you? You speak so unpleasantly..."
Mother Ye snapped again, "Don't let anyone tell you the truth anymore? If you let your son marry Dongqing, doesn't it mean that the eldest son and the younger son are both settled?"
"Use Lao Pei's property to subsidize Lao Lin's family. In the future, he will be registered as a registered permanent resident of Lao Lin's family. He will sweep Lao Lin's grave and be buried in his family's ancestral grave."
"The food you eat is too ugly. It's no different from eating it to death. If you eat it to death, you have to share it with several relatives. It's better for you. You can eat it all by yourself and you won't be afraid of choking to death."
Aunt Ma rushed forward to hit Ye Mu, but Aguang and Huimei quickly stopped her.
Ye Yaodong also showed the child to Lin Xiuqing, and he and Ye's father also stepped forward to stop him.
A group of people began to fight, and two women greeted each other across a group of people.
"Who are you cursing? You old witch. You have disturbed a happy event. Why don't you just die? You cursed our family..."
"Why should I die? I don't deserve to die, I haven't done anything wrong, and I don't care about other people's property. If I want to die, I deserve to die..."
"You are the one who deserves to die..."
"I don't deserve to die, I am so blessed now..."
"You old bitch who spits shit...you're eating shit..."
"You're just eating shit. You can't finish it yourself but feed it to others. It's disgusting. Dongqing is so good-looking and has a generous dowry. Anyone who wants to marry her can queue from the village entrance to the city."
"Bah, she spends all day doing things with a bunch of men, hanging out together..."
Father Pei slapped him with a big ear and said, "Shut your mouth."
"You hit me? I just gave you a son, and you turn your back on me? I'll fight you..."
The target of the battle has changed. Ye Mu immediately pulled her family back. It was time for her to retreat after her success was achieved.
Just now she was watching the show for others, now it's her turn to watch the show.
Father Pei pushed him away and rushed towards Ma Lifang, "Have you had enough trouble?"
Ma Lifang's son and daughter also quickly pulled her and protected her.
"Uncle Pei, if you have something to say, please tell me..."
Father Pei didn't say a word. He turned to the villagers who were watching the excitement and said, "Today's incident is a joke for everyone. It's just a misunderstanding. The women in the family killed it first and then reported it, so we didn't know about it."
"Holly is indeed not young, but her marriage must be based on her own wishes. We parents must not force her. In this new society, we must not arrange marriages."
"If you have a suitable candidate, please help introduce him. If he is successful, I will give you a big matchmaker red envelope and I will be happy."
"The same goes for Construction. He is old and has to get a wife. This child is also good, hardworking and sensible. If you have a suitable girl, please help introduce him. I have watched him grow up.
, now he is considered my son, and I have to take good care of him."
A neighbor said, "That's right, Lao Pei, we can't let the women in the house mess around."
"Yes, it's not okay for this sister and brother to get married. Although they are not related by blood, it won't sound good if we tell them."
"Yes, Dongqing and Jianshe are both good kids, but we can't mess with each other..."
Father Pei smiled and said, "No, no, she doesn't know the importance. How can I not know the importance? She was just fooled by her at the beginning."
"If you tell me well, you can't hit anyone anymore."
"If a woman doesn't behave well, she has to be disciplined, beaten, and messed up..."
Father Pei listened to everyone's discussion, looked at Ye Mu, and skipped it.
He looked at Father Ye again and said in a low voice: "In-laws, this is a joke for you. You are right to remind me. This will be the case today. You can go back first."
Father Ye said: "You need more snacks, but you can't be confused and let the children feel cold. The palms of your hands are meat, and the back of your hands is also meat. What's more, the first three children have suffered the hardship of not having their own mother, so there will be more."
How much does it hurt?"
"I know, I was confused for a while, but I won't do it again."
"Then let's go first, and you can sort out your family affairs first."
"Um."
Ye's father took the lead and led his family out first. Although the neighbors were also curious about what would happen next, they all drove them away, so they had no choice but to follow Ye's father and others out, only turning back three times every step.
Lin Xiuqing also handed the three children to Ye Huimei and whispered, "Bring them into the house first. Don't scare the children. If you have anything to do in the future, remember to go home and tell them. Don't hide it, otherwise you will suffer the consequences."
Know."
"I know."
"I think you don't have to eat lunch either. You'll bring your children and A Guang over to eat at home later. I'll go back and cook more."
"good."
After Lin Xiuqing finished speaking, she was the last one to go out.
Father Ye and mother Ye Yaodong were waiting for her at the door.
She said: "I told Huimei to bring Aguang and the children to our house for dinner later."
Ye's mother agreed, "Yes, cook more. This family will definitely have no food to eat at noon because of this commotion. It's okay for the adults to be hungry, but don't starve the children."
Did you enjoy reading this chapter? I’ll comment on it next time after reading it. It’s not something that’s happened yet, it’s just a hint, and everyone is excited.
In fact, reality is more magical than fiction. There are many such things, let alone the backward 1980s and 1990s.
Chapter completed!
