Travel through different worlds and experience different lives

When parents get old, aren’t they the daughters-in-law and daughters who take care of their clothing, cooking and cleaning?

If there are no daughters, aren't they all taken care of by the daughters-in-law? We don't ask them to take care of us like our own parents, as long as they can give us food to eat.

What's more, I will raise Xiaoxue as my own daughter. I will not be like other families who say that their daughter-in-law is an outsider. We will not do that.

A few people chatted in the room for a while, and then the bride came in. After everyone went out to take a look, they found that the dress Xia Xue was wearing was so beautiful.

She was wearing all red, and even in Beijing, there was no such beautiful clothes.

When Lin Qing saw this, her eyes lit up and she said: Is this what that girl Zi Ling did?

This is great craftsmanship and the style is nice too.

When will I ask Zi Ling to make two sets of clothes for me?

Liu Zhilan nodded and said: I'll let the girl measure your size later, and then let her design the style for you. The girl can do it very quickly.

You can do it before you go back.

The place at home was not big, and it certainly could not accommodate everyone in the village, so tables were set up inside and outside the yard.

And when the house was built, the road was also built. There were almost no people near their house, so Zi Ling made the road very wide, smooth, and even paved it.

Of course, it’s only fifty meters.

After the wedding, everyone started to eat. Today's meal contained more meat, which was wild boar, wild deer, rabbit and chicken that Zi Ling hunted in the mountains.

Anyway, everyone can just eat as much as they want, it’s enough.

The whole family was busy all day and was exhausted, but it only happens once in a lifetime, so no matter how tired they were, Han Wei and his wife were happy.

They had never imagined that their son would get married so soon.

After everything was packed, Zi Ling measured Lin Qing and Xia Shuang's sizes, and then made two sets of clothes for each of them according to their temperament.

Of course, I also made two sets for Xia Xue's elder brother and younger brother. No one would say anything, after all, the elders were there, and they were in-laws after all.

They could only stay here for three days, so after Zi Ling took the measurements, she started working quickly to make it for them.

For summer and refreshing days, a Zhongshan suit and a set of casual clothes are suitable.

Lin Qing and Xia Shuang's were the bat-wing type, and after it was made for them, when they were about to set off, Lin Qing and Xia Shuang put them on directly.

In the summer, the two brothers also changed into Zhongshan suits, which made them look particularly energetic. Even Xia Xue thought her younger brother was so handsome.

The family sent Lin Qing and others to the car before returning.

Time flies, and the Chinese New Year is almost here. Today is the 20th day of the twelfth lunar month, and after the Chinese New Year, Zi Ling will be eighteen years old.

In the past few months, Zi Ling has lost weight and now looks cute and chubby.

Xia Xue sometimes said that Zi Ling was able to lose weight successfully. Could it be that she was really fed medicine before?

Han Hui thought for a while and said: That should be the case. I saw my aunt giving my sister something to eat before.

My sister didn't want to eat, but I forced her to eat it. Later, my sister had no choice but to eat it. After eating, she didn't gain weight all of a sudden, but gained weight slowly.

I just don't know what they gave my sister to eat.

Zi Ling smiled and said: It's okay, they gave us some hormones, which are actually not harmful to the body, but they cannot be taken for a long time.

And I haven't eaten for a long time, so I gradually lost weight.

Of course after I knew about it, I gave it to Han Ziyan some time ago, and I increased the dosage.

Han Ziyan should have become as chubby as I am now. Hehe, after the Chinese New Year, she will be even fatter than I was before, and she won't be able to lose weight.

After hearing this, no one said anything else and no longer cared about Zi Ling's revenge. Instead, they started preparing meals for the New Year.

Zi Ling said: Sister-in-law, come to the room later and take back the clothes and shoes that you and your brother wore during the New Year.

Hearing this, Xia Xue said: "Little sister, why are you still making clothes for us? Your sister-in-law has never made clothes for you."

Zi Ling smiled and said: Sister-in-law, I have clothes. Besides, I am trying to lose weight now. It would be a waste to have too many clothes. I should make clothes after I lose weight.

Han Wei said: Xiaohui, go and mail the things for your in-laws later. They should be able to receive them before the New Year.

Han Hui smiled and said: Okay, Dad, I'll go now.

Liu Zhilan smiled and said: You and Xiaoxue should go together. It’s a good opportunity to take Xiaoxue for a stroll around the county. You don’t have to come back at noon. You can go to the state-owned restaurant for a meal.

As he said that, he put a wallet in Han Hui's pocket and said with a smile: This is a wallet made by your sister, Xiaoxue, buy whatever you like.

Xia Xue smiled and said: Mom, look at what you said, there are so many things at home, why do we need to buy anything else?

Han Wei smiled and said: You guys go and have fun, see if there are any movies or something, let’s go watch it together.

By the way, buy some more good wine and bring it with you when you go back to your parents' home on the second day of the Chinese New Year. It's Xiaohui's first time to meet his father-in-law and mother-in-law, so don't be rude.

Han Hui smiled and nodded when he heard this and said: I understand, Dad, let's go.

My family has already started preparing New Year’s goods. Of course, it’s still quite cold here in winter, so many things have to be prepared in advance.

For example, for meat and other things, Zi Ling went to the mountains to hunt three wild boars, processed them at home, and her brother would take them to his father-in-law's house during the New Year.

Everything in life here is simple and warm. When Lin Qing returned home, she really praised Han Wei's entire family. Even Xia Tian, ​​Xia Shuang, and Xia Shuang, she couldn't find any fault with them.

The main reason is that such family members are really rare.

After arriving home, Xia Shuang asked curiously: By the way, Mom.

How much dowry did Aunt Liu give to Xiaoxue?

Even Xia Tian and Xia Shuang were curious. They didn’t care about how much was given, but they also wanted to know.

Lin Qing was speechless when she heard this and said: Let’s talk about it when your dad comes back.

During dinner in the evening, Xia Xue's uncle Xia Zhen asked: How much do the in-laws give as a betrothal gift, and what are all these things you brought back?

Upon hearing this, Lin Qing stopped eating and directly took out a box and said: This is the betrothal gift that Sister Liu gave me. Those things are written here. You can see for yourself.

Upon hearing this, Xia Zhen opened the box and took a look. It was full of money. Damn, how much money was this?

Xia Tian and a few others looked over here together and wanted to say “Fuck” as well.

Xia Zhen was a little shocked and asked: How much is this? As he spoke, he picked up the note. After reading it, he didn't know what to say. This relative is too honest.

After watching this, several younger generations in the summer were all shocked and said: We will never dare to get married in the future after this.

This is too much. It feels like selling my daughter.

Lin Qing laughed and said: Sister Liu said that daughters are also the apple of their parents' eyes. As long as the family is not patriarchal, everyone will love their own children.

The bride price is just a formality. If you can afford it, give more; if you can't, give less. In fact, as long as the couple is happy, nothing else matters.

They didn't know what to prepare, so they prepared everything they could and came up with a lucky number. After all, it's a matter of a lifetime, right? Everyone just wanted to have fun.

He also said that marriage was a way of bringing two families together, not creating enmity. He also knew that Xia Xue had an older brother and a younger brother, neither of whom were married.

He said that no matter how good the in-laws' jobs are, they still have pressure, and giving more would be considered helping out. He also said that it would be a blessing for their family to marry their daughter into their family, so naturally they should give more.

There is only one boy in their family, and the girl will get married in the future, so there is not that much pressure. If there were more boys, they would not dare to give so much if they were under a lot of pressure.

Xia Zhen sighed and said: This relative is really good at talking. Nowadays, no one would give so much betrothal gifts, not to mention that the betrothal gifts are usually given to the girl to take back home.

This relative-in-law was actually brought back by you, which shows that he really likes Xiaoxue.

Lin Qing said helplessly: I want to give it to Xiaoxue too. Xiaoxue said she didn't want anything and said her mother-in-law said that the betrothal gift is for your parents, not you, and you can't take it.

Once you marry into our family, you are part of our family, and everything in the house will be yours. When Zi Ling gets married, it is impossible for her to take all the house and money with her.

It was not easy for your parents to raise you. Those are just the hard-earned money for them. When Zi Ling gets married, I will not return the betrothal money, so you shouldn't take it back.

As he said that, he gave Xiaoxue a box. Xiaoxue didn't know about it at the time. She told me later that the box was full of money and that Xiaoxue would be in charge of their family's finances from now on.

She also said that this was all the money Zi Ling earned from selling ginseng, and she gave half to her family, saying it was for her brother.

Zi Ling uses the money she has to buy all the food and daily necessities. You keep these and buy a house in the city when you return to it in the future.

If it’s not enough, your younger sister said, she will sell the other ginseng as well.

Anyway, I won’t let you live in your mother’s house, and we must buy a house.

Lin Qing said with some emotion: Their family, that girl's life was not easy either. I saw such a good girl, but she was said like that. Xiaoxue told me that the girl almost committed suicide at that time.

It was only when Ye Fan came out and said he wanted to marry that the villagers shut up.

Hey, Xiaoxue said, the girl actually didn’t want to come to Ye Fan, but Ye Fan left after he finished speaking, and she didn’t have the chance to say that it wasn’t necessary. She didn’t care what others said.

What Xiaoxue told me were all said by Han Hui and Xiaoxue. Han Hui also said that her younger sister didn't actually want to get married, but she just went to the river to relax that day and didn't know how she fell into the river. You know how heavy she is.

If you fall in, you can only flutter.

I burst out laughing when she finished saying that. That girl weighed almost 200 pounds before. From what Xiaoxue said, it seemed like she was fed medicine. In fact, that girl ate less than Xiaoxue.

It must be because he was fed hormones that caused the child to gain weight even when drinking water.
