Siheyuan: Black and steady Gou Laoliu

The wedding procession.

Yi Zhonghai's legs were a little sore from walking, so he wanted to stop and rest, so he gave cigarettes to Sha Zhu and his apprentice, and then started smoking.

Yi Wanhua was also extremely depressed. He spent all his money and effort to arrange a wedding for his apprentice, but he didn't even get to smoke a cigarette from his apprentice along the way.

What made Yi Yinbi most angry was that his apprentice always had a sullen face and ignored him when he spoke to him, as if someone owed him money.

This directly resulted in the entire wedding procession not having the slightest bit of joy except for the red flower on Jia Dongxu's chest.

In addition, the failure of his previous attempt to sow discord made Yi Zhonghai feel even more upset.

Just now when he heard the word "doctor", he caught a glimpse of key information. Later he figured out that he could use Han Li's identity as a doctor to do something, but he was still confused about how to do it.

I can only wait until I have free time to think about it carefully.

Taking a deep puff of smoke and then slowly exhaling the smoke, Yi Zhonghai casually asked, "Dongxu, we should be here soon, right?"

Jia Dongxu has become taciturn since he came back from getting the marriage certificate yesterday. The master and the apprentice haven't said a few words to each other. Naturally, Yi Zhonghai doesn't know the address of the bride's home.

Jia Dongxu did not hide it anymore and told the address of the Niu family.

By now, Jia Dongxu has already accepted his fate. Although his wife is a little ugly, it would be nice to live a good life without worries about food and clothing after marriage.

He has already made up his mind that after getting married, he will eat meat on the Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays, drink alcohol on the Tuesdays, Thursdays and Saturdays, and go out to restaurants on Sundays to make those people in the hospital envious to death!

What's wrong with being a gigolo? Not everyone can be a gigolo! I, Jia Dongxu, have the fate of being a gigolo. Do you have the fate? It's my ability to be a gigolo! Only capable men can be a gigolo!

Well, after a period of psychological preparation, Jia Dongxu, who has not yet had a gigolo, has already developed a sense of superiority.

However, Yi Zhonghai frowned after hearing the address of the bride's home, because he suddenly remembered an interesting story about this alley that he had heard people talk about when he went to the pub to drink before.

It is said that the woman is already 26 or 27 years old and has not yet married. She looks like Zhu Bajie's second aunt. She is lazy, greedy and a big eater. She eats as much as three or five adult men.

Yi Zhonghai was quite amused at the time and joined in the discussion: "Whoever marries a woman like this will be unlucky for the rest of his life!"

After trying hard to recall, it seems that the family’s surname was Niu!

No wonder Niu Erzhuang's family couldn't even wait until the weekend and were in a hurry to marry their daughter off. They must have been bankrupt and scared of being eaten!

After thinking about this, Yi Zhonghai felt extremely cold in his heart, as if the sky was falling: his retirement plan was going to be ruined!

His apprentice married a wife who is lazy, greedy and a big eater. In the future, forget about counting on him to support you. It would be a great blessing for the Yi family if they are not dragged down by his apprentice's family!

You know, with Jia Dongxu's salary alone, it is barely enough to support them and their son, and they still need help from their master Yi Zhonghai every month.

How will I live my life after marrying a daughter-in-law who is the reincarnation of a starving ghost?!

The more Yi Zhonghai thought about it, the more upset he became, and the more headache he got. He felt his eyes go dark and his body swayed from side to side, like a candle in the wind, about to fall.

The sharp-eyed Sha Zhu noticed something was wrong, so he supported him and asked with concern, "Uncle, are you okay?"

Yi Zhonghai took a few deep breaths, shook his head woodenly, and explained casually: "Maybe I didn't sleep well last night."

After recovering from the shock, Yi Wanhua thought that maybe he had misjudged his thoughts. With a glimmer of hope, he looked at his apprentice and said, "Dongxu, does the Niu family have three brothers and one sister, with only one mother?"

"Yes." Jia Dongxu nodded, and suddenly asked in confusion: "Master, how do you know? Do you know him?"

After getting a positive answer, Yi Zhonghai's heart finally died, and there was only one thought left in his mind: Jia Dongxu, the old man, is useless!!!

All the hard work of many years was destroyed in an instant, and there was a high possibility that he would be completely dragged down by his apprentice's family in the future...

Thinking of this, Yi Zhonghai was filled with grief: Who could be as miserable as me! ?

He lit up another cigarette, took a few deep puffs to calm his chaotic mood, then waved his hand to signal for departure.

Finally, we arrived at the Niu family.

I have to say, the Niu family decorated the house with lights and colors to create a joyous scene in order to marry off their daughter.

Seeing that many onlookers were looking at the groom with pity, Yi Zhonghai knew that his previous guesses were all correct.

Only an ugly girl who can't get married would have such a shameless family setting up such a trap.

Yi Zhonghai sighed in his heart, but he could do nothing but bite the bullet and get down to business.

After distributing wedding candies and cigarettes, the wedding party entered the Niu family smoothly.

As the only elder in the wedding party, Yi Zhonghai is responsible for a series of marriage procedures.

After all, no matter what, the wedding etiquette cannot be omitted.

However, what confused Yi Zhonghai was that Niu Erzhuang's mother always stared at him intentionally or unintentionally.

This made Yi Wanhua feel very disgusted, and he felt more and more that this family were not good people. He just wanted to complete the process quickly and let his apprentice take the bride away.

Just as Jia Dongxu was about to go into the inner room to pick up the bride, the three daughters-in-law of the Niu family stopped him and said, "Groom, the new bride is about to be married, but you haven't paid the bride price yet. Isn't this against the rules?"

Jia Dongxu looked bewildered: "None yesterday..."

Seeing that his disciple was about to say something wrong, Yi Zhonghai hurriedly said with a smile: "This wedding was hastily concluded, so the etiquette is inevitably not thorough. You should come up with a set of rules first, and we will try to find a way to handle it. But we can't delay the good time for the wedding."

He was trying to point out to the Niu family: You know why the marriage is so hasty!

It is your family that is anxious to marry off their daughter, not my apprentice. If the wedding is delayed, who will suffer? Think carefully!

At the same time, Yi Yinbi cursed in his heart: "You set up a trap to plot against my apprentice and still have the nerve to ask for a dowry? It turns out that if you are not from the same family, you will not enter the same door! You didn't mention the dowry last night, so you asked for a lot of money when you came to pick up the bride, right? You wishful thinking!"

"We don't ask for much in terms of betrothal gifts, just 5 yuan ( yuan) is enough."

The Niu family agreed that Niu's mother would get 2 yuan (1 yuan), and the other three families would each get yuan ( yuan).

It’s not that they don’t want more, but they are worried that Jia Dongxu can’t take it out.

Besides, if the Jia family is really emptied out, my sister-in-law won't even have enough food to eat after she marries into the Jia family, and she will definitely come back to her parents' home to make trouble in the future.

Under normal circumstances, the dowry asked for by the Niu family was not much, but Yi Zhonghai was short of money now and did not want to help his apprentice pay the dowry at all.

In order not to be completely dragged down by his apprentice's family, Yi Yinbi has already made up his mind to break with the Jia family, and naturally does not want to be the scapegoat anymore.

Since the issue of bride price had not been mentioned before, Jia Dongxu had not prepared anything and had no money at all.

The Niu family wanted a dowry, but the wedding process couldn't provide it, so the wedding process was stuck here.

In the end, it was Niu Erzhuang who came up with a compromise and asked Jia Dongxu to come back and pay the betrothal gift, and the matter was resolved perfectly.

At this moment, Niu Erzhuang's mother called out tentatively: "Xiao Hai?"

Yi Zhonghai looked in the direction of the voice, and became more and more annoyed: Hooking up with a man in front of your daughter-in-law and daughter-in-law, do you still have any shame? ?

"Xiao Hai, I am your sister Yanrong. Ma Yanrong!" Mother Niu became more and more excited as she spoke, her face full of joy of meeting an old friend after a long separation.

Yi Zhonghai recalled it instantly, with a look of surprise on his face: "Sister Yanrong, it's really you!"

Ma Yanrong was a former neighbor of Yi Zhonghai's hometown. She was a few years older than him. At that time, he liked this neighbor sister the most and dreamed of marrying her.

Unfortunately, we went our separate ways due to the war, but I didn't expect to meet again today.

When the fellow sees the fellow, tears well up.

After a round of warm greetings, Yi Zhonghai caught a glimpse of the red flower pinned on his disciple's chest. His heart suddenly skipped a beat and he thought to himself, "Oh no! This time, there's no way I can wash myself clean even if I jump into the Yellow River!"
