The pretty educated youth became the favorite of the soldier king

Chapter 85: You don’t know how expensive firewood, rice, oil and salt are!

Gu Xiaoqi and Feng Jiajia walked towards Malanhua's house. There were already quite a few people in the small yard.

Early that morning, Lai Ergou wore a cotton coat and trousers made of better material than usual. Just looking at their thickness, you could tell that the cotton material inside was sufficient.

But it makes it look bloated and a little wimpy.

Although Malanhua's family is poor, they give everything they have to their son Lai Ergou.

In his hand, he was holding a big red flower borrowed from the village, and with a rosy face, he went to the educated youth point to pick up people!

Lai Ergou is getting married today, he is so happy!

From now on, he is also a married man!

He must work hard and let Gao Limei give birth to a big fat boy for him!

He can also experience the feeling of having a wife, children and a warm bed!

People always say that men should get married first and then start a career!

He believed that as long as he got married, his good fortune would come naturally!

Although everyone at the educated youth site had a lot of complaints about Gao Limei, no one would cause trouble on someone's wedding day.

They also cooperated with Gao Limei to send her away.

Gao Limei's face was covered in bruises and her expressionless face looked particularly creepy, with no trace of joy in getting married at all.

He was wearing a cotton coat and trousers that looked almost starched and had been patched countless times. His shoes also seemed to not fit him well and there was a faint odor coming from them.

In comparison, Lai Ergou is much more respectable than her. From this perspective, Gao Limei is no different from the other village girls. In fact, she doesn't look as good as them in terms of appearance.

This was something that Malanhua got back from somewhere. Gao Limei refused to wear it at first, but she couldn't even leave the house without it.

She really couldn't wear that outfit anymore, otherwise she might freeze to death.

It’s so cold today, and I can’t wash my clothes and shoes. I can only wear them and endure the unpleasant smell.

Anyway, now she is sleeping alone on a big kang in the educated youth center, and they are all isolating her!

Feng Jiajia and Liu Ying didn't move away to isolate her. They moved away because they couldn't stand the smell.

Thinking about seeing Gao Limei off, they will clean and tidy up the room. Then it will be just the two of them living in this room. How comfortable that will be!

Gao Limei was completely unkempt, the only thing that was noticeable was her hair, which was washed. She followed Lai Ergou like a zombie.

When Gu Xiaoqi and the other person arrived, Malanhua was standing at the door, her face wrinkled with smile.

Although she is very dissatisfied with Gao Limei now, it is her son's wedding day after all!

It can be said that I have found a wife for free, which has fulfilled my expectations for many years.

Moreover, you can receive a lot of gifts and gifts!

With this money, I can have a good winter this year!

Seeing Gu Xiaoqi and Feng Jiajia coming over here, Malanhua smiled and waited to receive the gift money.

But when the two of them passed by Malanhua, Feng Jiajia said, "Aunt Ma, we will give the gift money to Gao Limei. Let's go in first!"

Then the two of them met up with a group of people at the educated youth point, and everyone agreed that those who wanted to give money could give 5 cents, or they could give some towels, soap, etc.

Soon everyone in the village came to join in the fun; as the autumn harvest was over and there was nothing to do, everyone wanted to share in the good cheer.

Lai Ergou and Gao Limei's wedding was simple.

Apart from two people holding a red flower in each of their hands, the room was not decorated much.

Lai Ergou's family was not well off, and since food was precious in that era and their home was small, they just kept things simple.

There were many stools placed in the yard, and some people brought their own stools. On a large table next to it, there was a bowl full of wild vegetable cakes made of cornmeal.

After giving their gifts or betrothal gifts, the villagers would find a place to sit, pick up a wild vegetable cake to eat, and wait for the wedding ceremony to begin.

A group of educated youth walked towards Gao Limei who was standing stupidly in the center of the crowd, gave her their gift money or gifts, and said a few words of blessing.

Gao Limei had a gloomy face, holding one end of the red flower in her hand. She was a little nervous and pouting as if someone owed her money.

But when she saw everyone handing her the gift money and gifts, her expression eased a little. She reached out to take them and thanked them awkwardly.

When Gao Shanfeng handed Gao Limei a 5-cent bill, Gao Limei's eyes turned red and she stared at Gao Shanfeng with grievance and resentment.

Gao Shanfeng looked coldly and impatiently at Gao Limei who refused to take the money.

Zhou Xiu, who had sneaked into the educated youth point, saw that Gao Limei was reluctant to take it and became unhappy.

"Gao Zhiqing, congratulations! I wish you and Lai Ergou a long life together and may you have a baby soon! When Shanfeng and I get married, you two can come along~"

As he said this, he took 5 cents from Gao Shanfeng's hand, stuffed it into Gao Limei's hand, and then hugged Gao Shanfeng's arm.

Gao Limei looked at the two people's arms entangled together and clenched her hand holding the money.

"Limei! Mom will hold it for you. You and Ergou will have to serve tea to me later. It's not convenient to hold it!"

Malanhua had already seen the people from the educated youth site surrounding Gao Limei, so she hurried over. When she saw Gao Limei accepting the gift money, Malanhua snatched it away.

When Gao Limei saw the money she had just received was snatched away by Malanhua, she immediately exclaimed, "That's my money!"

"What do you mean by your money and my money? You are already the daughter-in-law of our Lai family! I am your mother-in-law! Your money is my money! Once you enter my house, you have to listen to me!" Malanhua said as a matter of course.

Malanhua acted like a mother-in-law and wanted to give Gao Limei a warning!

You little slut, you've never been content to be content. You've got money in your hand and you're taking advantage of other men!

Look at the way Gao Limei looks at Gao Shanfeng, so romantic.

It is better to put it in her hands to ensure that the money is spent on herself and her son.

Gao Limei knew that now that she had entered this family, she would have to be humble and submissive. She had no choice but to try again.

She calmed herself down and said calmly, "Mother-in-law! This is the gift money the educated youth gave me. I'd better keep it myself!"

Malanhua rarely smiled at Gao Limei.

"No need for you! There's no use for you to take the money. I also spent a lot of money to prepare for your wedding! You don't know how expensive rice, oil and salt are until you run the household. I have a use for this money! Although you and Ergou are married, I'm still the head of our family. You just have to listen to me from now on. Of course, the money is with me!"

Gao Limei's face darkened instantly. She stared fiercely at the money in Malanhua's hand, suppressing her anger in her heart.

People are under the eaves and have to bow their heads!

But this expression made Malanhua angry. It was rare that Malanhua did not lose her temper on the spot because someone else came in from outside!

She quickly greeted him with a smile, that was all money!
