What a cheating husband

Chen Bi is good at embroidery, and the surrounding villages know a lot. Although Chen Bi is still young, there are a few matchmakers, but they are all stopped by Chen Qing. Help at home for two more years.

Miao Rencui also didn't want to marry her off hastily because Chen Bi could earn money. Besides, she still wanted to marry Chen Bi to a rich man. How much dowry money can the surrounding villages give?

Recently, the debt collectors came twice, and Miao Rencui quarreled more than once over this matter. Looking at the increasingly impatient uncle, Chen Qing was really afraid that she would not be able to cope with the huge debts, so she would marry her to someone willing to do more. The family who gave the dowry.

Before the matchmaker invited by Wan Zhuoping's family came to the door, Miao Rencui had just sent away a woman from the same village. She had just recruited a disaster last year. If it wasn't for friendship, who would lend money to Boss Chen when life was hard?I had no harvest last year and survived the spring and summer. Even if the family conditions are good, I want to get the money back to pay the rent as soon as possible.

Most of the money Chen Ping borrowed was from other villages, so it was inconvenient to come and go to ask for it every other month or so. The people from the same village couldn't see each other even if they wanted to hide.

Miao Rencui had just been run on, and she was very angry, and the matchmaker didn't show a good face when he came to the door.The matchmaker hired by Wan's family was also very eloquent, he convinced Miao Rencui with a few words, and then brought out cakes and tea leaves, the auntie's face looked even better.

After the matchmaker told about the situation of the Wan family, and was willing to wait a year and a half before letting Chen Bi pass through, Miao Rencui felt a little nervous in his heart.

Chen Qing had known for a long time that the Wan family would send someone to matchmaker today, so she just happened to enter the door at the right time, and asked coldly, "What are you doing here?"

The matchmaker just laughed and didn't speak, and when Miao Rencui saw Chen Qing's stubborn appearance, he became angry, "What can you do here, let me be a matchmaker for Chen Bi, you don't care about being a brother, and my aunt can't let me control you." control?"

"Abi is only 13 years old, next year it's time to say goodbye," Chen Qing said intentionally.

"This is Brother Chen, what you're talking about, don't you have to get married sooner or later? The Wan family is a good family, and if you settle down early, you won't miss out on a good marriage." Talk fast.

"You junior, it's not your turn to make decisions, so hurry up and go to work in the field, what should you eat and drink at home if you miss the harvest?" Miao Rencui ordered with her hands on her hips.

Chen Qing looked at the matchmaker with a dark face, "Even if you want to talk about marriage, you have to give the dowry first! Let the girl marry in the next year, if you don't agree, leave quickly."

Miao Rencuiquan pretended to be Chen Qing, this was to make things difficult on purpose, and wanted to throw the matchmaker out, so she cursed a few times and comforted the matchmaker not to be angry like a child.

"Hey~ You are a young man, do you know the rules? The betrothal gifts are all sent three months in advance. How can you ask for a betrothal gift before you are engaged? You have never seen the world." The matchmaker immediately stood up and pointed at Chen Qing. Preach.

Miao Rencui's thoughts changed quickly, if he could get the dowry in advance, he could also pay part of the debt first.He didn't know anything, and let Chen Qing quarrel with the matchmaker. If the matchmaker got angry and wanted to leave with a wave of her sleeves, she would give some words of comfort, and then yell at Chen Qing.

"We country folks don't pay much attention to these three media and six hires, but we have to follow the rules, right? How valuable are you to treat your sister? With your family's conditions, you still want to marry your daughter to the old man outside the family? The Wan family It’s good not to think that the shabby natal family will drag down the in-law’s family, but if you change someone else’s family, you have to consider whether to marry your sister.” The matchmaker is also a black mouth, and the Chen family is worthless.

Chen Qing's face turned dark on the spot, and even Miao Rencui's complexion began to look bad.

"It's all about talking about marriage first, and then giving four betrothal gifts to make an appointment. After signing the paperwork, the marriage is considered to be settled. The dowry is given three months before the wedding, and then the wedding can be done. Do you understand~" The matchmaker looked at Chen Qing with contempt.

"I don't understand, and I don't care about the many rules. If the Wan family is sincere, it doesn't matter if the dowry is given early or late. If my sister grows up, the Wan family will ruin the relationship, and my sister's marriage will not be delayed." Chen Qing stood stubbornly. Opposite the matchmaker.

"Cut~ It's okay, who would ruin the marriage! Not only can the betrothal gift not be returned, but the woman has to be compensated, isn't that just tossing around~" the matchmaker retorted.

"Hmph~ What if the Wan family thinks my family is poor, and they don't want to marry my sister even if they pay two dollars? It's hard to call my sister-in-law's family when she's old." Chen Qing gritted her teeth and continued to argue.

"Well... Anyway, if you don't agree, and miss your sister's great marriage, don't rely on my mother-in-law not reminding you. There are many good families like the Wan family. Girls want to marry him, and your sister can see people with one hand. Thinking about picking and choosing but not enough" the matchmaker put her hips on her hips like a teapot, snorted at Miao Rencui, picked up the cakes and tea, and planned to go back.

"Hey~ Why are you still carrying this thing back?" Miao Rencui quit immediately, and came to the door to say that all the gifts brought by her would be kept, it doesn't matter whether you say it or not, this is the rule.

"Your son doesn't speak well, so just treat me as a waste of time. People like you think it's a waste of things. Let me tell you, there are no marriages that my mother-in-law Liu can't talk about in the surrounding villages. Anyone who sees me will not be polite. What? If you think the child is valuable, you can just wait for the old man to marry you. I will lose your family, and I will go to whomever you like!" The matchmaker waved Miao Rencui's hand and was about to go out of the house.

"If you're really capable, why don't you ask the Wan family to send the dowry? You don't have the ability to say that you can't secure a matchmaker?" Chen Qing sat on the stool, watching the aunt and the matchmaker with cold eyes. .

"Chen Qing, you god damn it, don't say a few words, his aunt, don't be angry..." Miao Rencui yelled and hurried to appease the matchmaker.The ten thousand family's conditions are good, and they will definitely be able to give a few taels more money than the previous family who came to talk about marriage. Miao Rencui doesn't want to let this good marriage go.

"Hey~ You crazy young man, the recruiting is bright. I'm going to put the words here today. I have to guarantee this marriage. Why don't I give the dowry in advance? When the time comes, I sign the paperwork, and I'm not afraid of it when the time comes." Do you dare to send the girl there?" The matchmaker stuffed the pastry into Miao Rencui's hand, twisted her big buttocks and went out.

"Hey~ Auntie, why don't you leave without a sip of tea?" Miao Rencui called after collecting her things.

The matchmaker left, Miao Rencui scolded Chen Qing from head to toe, and almost slapped Chen Qing to relieve his anger.This marriage is going to be let go, where can I get money to pay off the debt?

Chen Qing didn't say a word, and let his aunt yell and scold. Chen Bi hid behind the door and listened for a long time, but was discovered by the aunt who scolded him in succession. You know how to help the family pay off the debt, but you still want to stay at my house for the rest of your life?"

"Stop arguing, my ears are hurting from your noise, didn't the matchmaker say she wants to protect the matchmaker? Everything is put down, what are you worried about?" Boss Chen said with his ears out.

That matchmaker Liu is also capable, and the matchmaker she protects is really not impossible, so Boss Chen is not afraid to let go of the marriage, and the family is still waiting for the money. It is a good thing to get the dowry early.

"How do you know that Liu matchmaker is not talking big, which family will not wait until the girl is old before giving the bride price?" Miao Rencui turned around and opened fire on his own men.

"I think big brother's method is very good. Even if the marriage fails, all those who come to ask for marriage will be asked to give the dowry first. At that time, Aniang will not be afraid that there will be no money to send those debt collectors." Chen Ping said rolling his eyes.

"Isn't it all because of you! I owe so much money, how can I pay it back~...will you let me live..." Miao Rencui felt annoyed when he mentioned the money, and immediately spread it on the ground, slapping his legs and crying.

"Okay, mother, when I am admitted to the scholar, I am afraid that I will not have the money to pay back the debt? At most, it is the point of grievance in the past three years, and it is not certain who will beg in the future." Chen Ping began to draw big cakes for his mother again.

"It's true, son, go and study hard, after three years, you will definitely be selected as a scholar to make your mother look good." Miao Rencui wiped away her tears, and hurried her son to study again.

"All right, all right, I'll go right away." Chen Ping hid in the house, out of sight and out of mind, he was also afraid of A Niang's crying and scolding.

The grandpa and grandma who came back from the village to enjoy the cool, learned that Chen Qing scolded him and ran away, and the matchmaker scolded him a few words. Because Chen Bi was still young, he didn't say much, fearing that the matchmaker would know about his family when he publicized it in the future. It's not easy to get along with each other, and no one dares to come to the door to say kiss.

But guarding the eldest daughter-in-law, the second elder dare not tell the truth, lest the family will have no peace.

Originally thought that the marriage would fail after Chen Qing's disturbance, but in the morning of the second day, Matchmaker Liu led the elders of Wan's family and brought four betrothal gifts to Chen's family to be a matchmaker.

Miao Rencui beamed happily, and hurriedly asked someone to go to the field to call Boss Chen back, and then ordered someone to stop Chen Qing.

When Boss Chen entered the house, grandpa and grandma Chen sat at the head, Boss Chen's family and his in-laws sat opposite each other, and Chen Bi was ordered to go back to the house to hide, and the marriage was finally settled.

Negotiating the betrothal gift took a lot of talking, Miao Rencui lion opened his mouth, and the silver alone would cost 50 taels, not counting the other items and food.

The elders of the Wan family stopped doing it as soon as they heard it. For such a poor natal family, let alone helping the in-law's family, it would be fine if they didn't drag them down.The Wan family kept a dark face and said nothing, Liu Matchmaker knew how to save the situation, she spoke positively and secretly, and then brought up the feat of the little brother of the Chen family yesterday, bragging that if she hadn't boasted about Haikou, she would have If you keep this relative, you won't invite the elders of Wan's family if you say nothing.

Miao Rencui was busy thanking and worshiping, and said that Chen Qing was an outlier in the family, his brother left early, and the child was too old to be disciplined, and he brought out his son to talk about things, which made Wan's elders look good a little.

But what kind of virtues the Chen family has, the elders of the Wan family have a lot of them, and they didn't want to be associated with such relatives, but Zhuo Ping insisted on marrying his daughter, Zhuo Ping's parents also said that the child was very good, just to make the in-laws trouble up.

In the end, the dowry was finalized at 31 taels of silver, two loads of grain each, three rolls of cloth, four catties of pastries, five boards of tea, six catties of fine wine,... 10 catties of official salt.

In short, the dowry means perfection, and the peasant family is more pragmatic, and what they want is the livelihood of the people.If people in the city want elegant objects such as gold, silver, jewelry, pens, inks, papers and inkstones.

After finalizing the amount of the betrothal gift, the Wan family went back, and after the betrothal gift was raised, they signed the document and the marriage was decided.
