The black-bellied peasant girl is reborn, and her weird relatives are mad

At the beginning of the morning, when the sky was gray, Zhang Caiyun knocked on the door.

She shouted outside the door, "Zaohua, get up quickly, eat something and put on makeup early."

The three of them opened their eyes drowsily and began to get dressed under the light from outside.

After breakfast, Jiang Zaohua sat in front of the window, and Jiang He's new daughter-in-law Jiang Ning began to put makeup on her.

When Jiang Ning got married, she stunned everyone present as soon as she got out of the bridal sedan. Firstly, she was beautiful, and secondly, her makeup was definitely the best in Donggang Village.

"Thank you for your help, sister-in-law." Jiang Zaohua sat down in front of the window with a bronze mirror in front of her. Jiang Ning took out the tools and powder she brought with her and began to put on makeup.

"Our Zaohua has fair, rosy skin, is clean, and is easy to put on makeup."

She used a powder puff to apply a base first, then took out two red strings, wrapped them around her hands, and pulled the strings with both hands, turning them into three ends. She held the two ends of the string in her hands, bit the other end with her mouth, and pulled the string apart to form a "cross" shape.

She pulled up and down with both hands, and the red line separated and combined, rotating freely.

Jiang Muxia and Yin Haitang stood by, watching curiously, and couldn't help asking, "Sister-in-law, is this the legendary face-squeezing?"

Jiang Ning smiled and nodded.

The two shuddered and whispered, "I heard someone say that pinching your face hurts a bit, you have to bear with it."

Jiang Zaohua was originally looking forward to it, but after hearing what the two of them said, she suddenly became nervous.

Her hands and feet were uneasy and her body was tense. At this time, Jiang Ning put the red thread close to her face, smiled and nodded at her, signaling her to relax.

The red thread was torn apart and closed in Jiang Ning's hands, forming three lines on her face. With the movement of her hands, the thread was torn apart again.

Jiang Zaohua widened her eyes in surprise and said, "Oh, it doesn't hurt, it's numb and itchy and very comfortable."

After saying that, he gave Jiang Ning a thumbs up. Jiang Ning smiled but did not stop twisting his body.

She started to put on makeup after squeezing her face. Jiang Muxia and the other person stood by her side, watching her transform from a plain-faced girl into a young wife with exquisite makeup.

They all praised Jiang Ning's craftsmanship.

Jiang Ning packed up his tools and said with a smile, "Mu Xia, your military aunt keeps telling me every day that when you get married, she wants me to give you the most beautiful makeup in Suanzao County. I've been waiting for this day..."

Jiang Muxia pursed her lips and smiled, "Thank you very much, sister-in-law."

After Jiang Ning packed up and left, the two men began to help her put on her bright red wedding dress.

At the beginning of the Chen hour, Zhang Caiyun led waves of women to come and add makeup to Jiang Zaohua.

Jiang Muxia and the other person stayed here, busy helping her receive and pack the gifts, and they were having a lot of fun.

The two were happy for her. Her relatives were more kind than those in their own family and bought her a lot of clothes and accessories.

It was getting more and more lively outside the courtyard. At three quarters past noon, the sound of gongs and drums could suddenly be heard in the distance.

Zhang Caiyun hurried into the house and called them, "You three, get ready. The bride's escort will be here soon."

Aunt Chun followed in and looked at the three people who looked a little nervous. She chuckled and said, "Look how nervous you are. Today I will be your matchmaker. Your sister-in-law and I will be by your side. Don't be nervous."

"Auntie, why are you here so early?" Yin Haitang asked in confusion.

Aunt Chun smiled broadly, "You kids don't understand. The earlier the bride is welcomed, the more the man's family values ​​the woman."

The sounds of gongs and drums were getting closer and closer, and finally, the deafening sound of firecrackers was heard at the gate.

"Oh, here they come, here they come." Aunt Chun helped Jiang Zaohua up and said with a smile, "Let's get ready. Mu Xia, you two, bolt the door. This is called knocking on the door. Let the groom suffer a little so that he can cherish the bride. And Mu Xia, although he is your cousin, you can't be selfish and take her away from him easily."

"Okay, leave it to me." Yin Haitang volunteered to take the brunt of the task, bolted the door, and stood guard at the door.

After a while, there was a noise outside the yard and many chaotic footsteps coming towards the door.

When they reached the door, the footsteps paused, someone said "hush", and then everyone became quiet.

Then there was a gentle knock on the door, and it was Li Jiru's clear voice, "Madam, open the door, I'm here to take you home." As his voice came, four or five red envelopes were stuffed through the crack in the door.

Yin Haitang picked them up, opened one and took a look. There was a copper coin inside. She curled her lips and said dissatisfiedly, "How stingy, only one penny." Then she distributed the red envelopes to everyone in the room without any intention of opening the door.

Someone outside the door urged Li Jiru to continue stuffing red envelopes. Suddenly, more than a dozen red envelopes were stuffed into the crack of the door. Yin Haitang was speechless at this time. He looked at the people in the room and asked in a low voice, "Do you want to open it?"

Jiang Muxia walked to the door with a smile and motioned her not to open it. She cleared her throat and asked the person outside loudly.

"Everyone outside, please listen carefully. You can only see the bride if you answer my three questions."

Li Jiru recognized her voice and replied helplessly: "Sister, you are my biological sister, you can't embarrass your brother like this, right?"

Jiang Muxia ignored him and started asking questions, "First question, when and where did you become attracted to my Zaohua?"

There was silence outside the door. Jiang Zaohua's face turned red with shame and she covered her face with a fan.

Jiang Muxia gave her a knowing smile and listened carefully to the answer outside the door with bated breath.

Li Ji was thinking carefully. After a while, he gave an answer hesitantly, "In the autumn when I was eight and she was five, I saw her for the first time while picking sour jujubes at Beiyangang. I… I felt… that this little girl was particularly lovely, so I… fell in love with her."

There was a burst of laughter outside the door, and someone teased him, "You are really good, you have set your sights on someone at such a young age, and now you finally get what you wanted."

Jiang Zaohua felt sweet in her heart. This answer was beyond her expectations. She didn't expect that he had fallen in love with her so early.

"Very good, second question. Guess a riddle, meat wrapped in bones, a word or a fruit."

This riddle is not easy to guess. It depends on whether Li Jiru can associate it with the person he loves most.

As soon as she finished speaking, Li Jiru answered firmly: "It is the word jujube."

There was silence outside, waiting for Jiang Muxia to give a response.

Jiang Muxia was stunned, the corners of her lips curled up, and she glanced at Jiang Zaohua. She raised an eyebrow at her who nervously put down the fan, smiled and responded loudly: "Yes, the answer is correct."

There was another round of laughter outside, and someone joked, "Did you discuss this with your sister, and she told you the answer long ago?"

As soon as these words were spoken, there was a burst of laughter outside.

Even Yin Haitang looked at her with suspicion. Jiang Muxia cried out that she was wronged and gave up her seat to let her ask the third question.

Yin Haitang waved his hands repeatedly and refused to ask any questions. Jiang Muxia pondered for a long time before slowly speaking about the third question.

"The third question is, no matter how rich the Li family becomes in the future, can you promise to stay with Jiang Zaohua forever and stay with her forever?"
