Rebirth in 1980: I pretend to be a pig, eat the tiger and marry the chief
Chapter 36 The price of bride price increases
Wang Cuilan's words caused trouble for Tang's mother again. But the second child was so old and he still didn't have a daughter-in-law. The eldest brother was getting divorced again. When would this end?
Seeing that Tang's mother looked unhappy, Tang Zheng came over and quickly handed Tang's mother a piece of candy.
Tang's mother wanted to refuse: "Mom won't eat, you eat..."
But Tang Zheng directly peeled off the candy wrapper and put it in Mother Tang's mouth.
White Rabbit milk candy, the milk tastes mellow and sweet, and her depressed mood immediately improved a lot.
Tang's mother said to Tang Wenli: "Second brother, please be angry and try to make money and marry a wife."
Tang Wenli's work continued: "Mom, you should worry about my elder brother first."
Tang Wenyi: "..."
Who did he provoke?
The next day, when the family had dinner, Mother Tang went to the old house to help out early, bringing dishes and chopsticks. She deliberately asked her two sons to take Tang Zheng there later. If she went too early, she would worry about the people at the old house. People can't get along with Tang Zheng.
Wait a little later, there will be more people, and the people over at the old house also want to show some respect, so that everyone can calm down for a while.
There were many people coming to help in the morning. As soon as we entered the yard, there was a sour smell.
The sour thing is vinegar, the smelly thing is feces.
Originally, the yard only smelled bad. Wang Cuilan felt that it was easy for others to laugh at her and it was too embarrassing. Someone suggested that she sprinkle some vinegar. Maybe acetic acid could cover up the smell of shit.
So, she bought ten more bags of vinegar at one go and spent several dollars. After she spread the vinegar in the yard, the smell became even more sour and refreshing. When people first entered the yard, they couldn't stand it and almost vomited. .
As soon as Tang's mother arrived, Wang Cuilan became angry: "Sister-in-law, look at the good things you Tang Zheng has done. The smell is so suffocating that you won't be able to eat when guests are here!"
Mother Tang lowered her head and said nothing. At this moment, someone said: "It's better not to eat. You can save money if you don't eat."
When Wang Cuilan heard this, she felt that it made sense.
Here, Tang Dalei was fully dressed and energetic, ready to pick up his new wife.
The car that picked up the new wife was a donkey cart with a big red flower tied on the donkey's head. The donkey cart was covered with a brand new red mattress, which looked a bit funny.
At this moment, someone walked into the yard with a cold face.
Wang Cuilan looked at the person coming and asked in confusion: "His brother-in-law, why are you here?"
The person who came was none other than the bride's eldest brother. Everyone was a little curious when he came here at this time.
Guo Gang had a dark face the whole time: "My mother asked me to pass on a message to you. If you want to marry my sister, please add 500 yuan to the bride price. If that doesn't work, my sister won't marry!"
When Wang Cuilan heard this, her face suddenly turned pale, and she looked in disbelief: "What are you talking about? Didn't we agree before that the gift of one thousand yuan was paid exactly!"
Guo Gang snorted coldly: "My mother heard that you fools from the Tang family still need two thousand as a gift when they get married. My sister is beautiful and smart, but she is no better than a fool. She didn't ask you for two thousand, just one thousand and five thousand." , If it works, let the groom bring the money to pick up the bride, if not, I will pull him down!"
After Guo Gang finished speaking, he turned around and left.
Wang Cuilan suddenly lost her mind. She married Tang Dalei, but she lost everything. Yesterday, she was cheated by the Tang family for one hundred and twenty dollars. Now she doesn't have a spare dollar in her hand. Where can she get five hundred?
Tang Dalei was also panicked. He asked Wang Cuilan with red eyes: "Mom, it's this time, what should we do?"
Wang Cuilan looked at Mrs. Tang who was sitting beside her.
Mrs. Tang said with a straight face: "Don't look at me. I don't have any money."
Yesterday she and Wang Cuilan went to her elder brother's house to make trouble. There was everything in the village. She also thought about it carefully and found that she had indeed helped her second son's family a lot in these years.
The second son's family came to her to ask for money whenever something happened. Most of her coffin had already been taken away by the second son's family. If the second son's family wanted to get money from her in the future, she would not be able to take it out easily.
Seeing Mrs. Tang's attitude, Wang Cuilan turned her attention to Mrs. Tang: "Sister-in-law, the Gu family gave you five thousand before. You must be rich. Can you lend me five hundred to help with the emergency? I will share the money with you when the time comes." Can I return the profit to you?"
Tang's mother did not expect that at this time, the Guo family would even increase the betrothal gift. At this time, Wang Cuilan asked her to borrow money again, and she was a little at a loss.
If she borrowed it, given Wang Cuilan's personality, she might not be able to pay it back.
If she hadn't borrowed it, everyone would have known that she had money. Wouldn't this make her look cold and heartless?
"Sister-in-law, I beg you, sister-in-law, please help me. Don't look at others, just look at Da Lei. She is your nephew. Do you have the heart to let him be a bachelor for the rest of his life?"
"This..." Tang's mother looked embarrassed, then Wang Cuilan continued: "Besides, why did your Tang Zheng need so many colorful gifts when he got married? Otherwise, the Guo family wouldn't have suddenly increased the wedding gift!"
Tang's mother originally planned to lend the money to Wang Cuilan, but she didn't expect Wang Cuilan to say such a thing.
"You are so stupid!"
After hearing this, Mrs. Tang couldn't help scolding Wang Cuilan, but Wang Cuilan actually said confidently: "Mom, it's true, am I wrong? Just like Tang Zheng, if someone can marry her, it would be good to give her a bite to eat, sister-in-law. He even asked for a bride price of two thousand yuan, but ended up breaking off the engagement, what a joke!"
"Second Aunt, we don't know whether we are being laughed at or not. You are about to be laughed at."
Tang Wenli appeared at some point, dragging Tang Zheng with him, and everyone's eyes fell on Tang Zheng.
They had heard that the Gu family and the Tang family had broken off their engagement before, and they thought it was because the Gu family didn't like Tang Zheng, a fool. Even if Geng Guifen and Gu Lin had a big fight at the gate of the Tang family a few days ago, they just thought that the Gu family came to ask for a betrothal gift. .
They never expected that it would be the Tang family who took the initiative to break off the engagement.
The Gu family is a famous ten-thousand-yuan household in eight villages within ten miles. Gu Lin also looks like a human being. The fact that he can look up to Tang Zheng is all due to the good deeds of Tang Zheng's ancestors. I didn't expect it. I didn't expect it. Is this Tang family stupid?
Tang's mother lowered her head when she felt everyone's sad gazes. Her tone was a bit colder: "My family has no money. Second brother and sister, you should find someone else."
After saying that, she pulled Tang Zheng to leave.
Wang Cuilan was so angry that she gave Tang Dalei a slap: "What are you doing so stupidly? Why don't you ask your aunt for help!"
Tang Dalei came back to his senses and quickly blocked Mother Tang's way: "Auntie, my mother is talking nonsense. Don't be angry with her, just lend me the money..."
