The bad man who is a womanizer, go on a blind date in a hurry
Chapter 12: Village Flower Zhao's Brother
Uncle Lu placed a beautiful carved wooden box in Lu Yao's hands.
Lu Yao took a look and saw a large silver ingot inside, which was the ten taels of silver as a betrothal gift to the Zhao family.
The eldest sister Lu Shan and the eldest daughter Lu Hua carried another load of betrothal gifts.
The betrothal gifts were placed in a clean and beautiful large bamboo basket, covered with a bright red cloth. No one knew what was inside.
Only then did Lu Yao understand that the betrothal gift here not only included silver, but also things.
What the Zhao family required before was that the silver alone had to be ten taels.
Ten taels of silver, plus things to buy new furniture and hold a wedding banquet, all of which require a lot of money.
No wonder the Lu family was scared away in the first place.
The group took their things and went out, heading straight to the village chief's house.
The Zhao family lived in the center of the village, and Lu Yao saw that it also had a very large courtyard.
However, the Zhao family seemed to be wealthier. Their house had mud walls and two more tiled rooms than the Lu family.
"Village Chief, happy events have arrived!"
The eldest brother-in-law walked in front. Before he entered the yard, he raised his emerald green handkerchief and his joyous voice reached the Zhao family before him.
The villagers did not close their doors during the day, so Lu Yao and his group went straight into the Zhao family's house.
As soon as they entered the yard, Lu Yao felt a large group of people surrounding them and welcoming them into the Zhao family's main hall.
Like the main hall of the Lu family, there were portraits of gods hanging on the north wall of the room, and below it was a wooden table with an incense burner on top.
There is a large square table in front of the counter, with wooden chairs on both sides of the table.
This is the main seat in the main hall, where sit Zhao Cuizhi's mother and father, the village chief and her principal husband.
There are two rows of mismatched chairs or stools below, placed in two rows on the left and right.
Uncle Lu and Sister Lu were sitting, and Lu Yao and Lu Hua were standing behind them.
Opposite was a large group of Zhao family members, some sitting and some standing.
Zhao Cuizhi was the son of the village chief, Langsheng, and the legitimate daughter. Those sitting there were all Zhao Cuizhi's legitimate sisters.
He has three older sisters and a younger sister who is two years younger than him.
Lu Yao knew that such a configuration was not easy to deal with. Having too many sisters-in-law was not a good thing.
Just like in her original world, a girl would feel more confident if she had more brothers and sisters on her side of the family. If her husband dared to treat her badly, her elder and younger brothers-in-law would come to beat her up in minutes. It's the same principle.
These are just the people sitting in the front row. There are quite a few people standing in the back, all of them are Zhao Cuizhi's sisters.
There were five people on Lu Yao's side, but there were a total of twenty people crowded on the opposite side.
It can be said that the lineup is strong.
Lu Yao muttered to herself: Aren't legitimate relatives the only ones present at such events? Why did the Zhao family invite their illegitimate daughters as well?
With so many people, Lu Yao estimated that the village chief must have married at least three husbands.
Suddenly, Lu Yao saw a familiar face among the crowd, Zhao Cuihua!
It’s the little girl Zhao Cuihua who is under her command!
Lu Yao suddenly remembered that Zhao Cuihua was not only from the same village as her, but was also Zhao Cuizhi's half-sister.
We met briefly during the tiger-beating parade that day and didn't have time to talk in detail. I didn't expect to meet you again here.
However, Lu Yao looked at Zhao Cuihua, who was sandwiched between the crowd and kept winking at her, but she had no idea what she meant.
Lu Yao pretended nothing happened. After looking away, her eyes unexpectedly met Zhao Cuizhi's.
He was also standing in the back row, looking at Lu Yao lovingly.
Lu Yao saw that he was still dressed neatly, with a slim figure and fair skin.
Half of her jet-black hair was left loose, and the other half was tied into a half-high ponytail with a red hairband tied on it.
Because she is young, she still has thick bangs in front of her hair, vaguely revealing two delicate eyebrows and a pair of big watery eyes. She is indeed better looking than other boys.
She is worthy of being the flower of Shanyang!
This Zhao Cuizhi is like a small daisy in the fields, with white flowers blooming, delicate and full of vitality.
It would be nice if I could marry a little chrysanthemum brother like this.
Lu Yao couldn't help but smile.
With this smile, Zhao Cuizhi on the opposite side almost fainted!
Sister Ergou is so charming!
And it looks even better today, and it’s even more rare!
One look, one smile, was enough to make him intoxicated.
Thinking that Ergouzi's sister came to propose marriage today with a betrothal gift, Zhao Cuizhi's heart began beating wildly, and she felt that she was about to get married to her!
Of course, this was just Zhao Cuizhi's reaction. The other girls on the opposite side had a different reaction.
When they saw Lu Yao smiling at Cuizhi, they thought she was seducing her younger brother.
Frivolous, shameless, bah!
Everyone was so angry that they stared at each other, wishing they could poke the bastard to death with their eyes!
Feeling the pressure from the opposite side, as if thousands of arrows were whizzing towards her, Lu Yao moved her toes awkwardly, wanting to order a three-bedroom, one-living-room apartment.
Zhao Cuizhi's mother and father were not in a good mood with the attitude of relatives and friends.
Only my eldest brother-in-law adhered to his professional ethics, always speaking in the most festive tone and saying the most auspicious words, livening up the atmosphere in the whole room.
"Village chief, brother-in-law, great news!" The eldest brother-in-law did not sit down, but waved his handkerchief and walked directly to Zhao Cuizhi's parents, smiling and full of emotion and said to them:
"Er Gou's love for Cui Zhi's brother, I've been matchmaking for so many years, but I've never seen anyone so sincere!
After the last meeting, Ergouzi became interested in her and went to the city to work so that he would not treat Cuizhi's brother badly when she married him.
It is said that when a person’s destiny comes, God will help him!
On the way back, we happened to see a tiger injuring people. We, Er Gouzi, stepped in to help the people and got rid of the harm, becoming a tiger-killing hero!
The county magistrate gave me twenty taels of silver as a reward!
Not only does it bring honor to the family, but now everything is ready for Brother Cuizhi to marry into the family!
Today, Er Gouzi has specially prepared ten taels of silver as a betrothal gift and has come to propose marriage to Cui Zhi's younger brother!"
The eldest brother-in-law waved his handkerchief at Lu Yao and said, "Er Gouzi, why don't you pay the betrothal gift now!"
Lu Yao said "oh" and walked up to the village chief and her doctor, respectfully presenting the box to them.
"This is ten taels of silver as a betrothal gift. I've been a matchmaker for so many years, but this is the first time someone has offered such a large sum of money so sincerely to marry you!" said the eldest brother-in-law happily, opening the box.
A large silver ingot in the shape of a gold ingot was revealed, glowing faintly in the room.
The eldest brother-in-law smiled and placed the box containing the silver ingots on the large table between the two elders.
The room was quiet.
Lu Yao looked up at the faces of the village elders and their heart skipped a beat.
In her previous life, she worked in sales and was very good at observing people’s expressions. She could basically predict what other people were thinking from their faces and reactions.
The village elders and their spouses looked livid and had long scowls.
Based on her years of experience, if the other party reacts like this, it will most likely be a failure.
Sure enough, the next second, the village chief said firmly:
"We won't accept this betrothal gift. Cuizhi can't marry!"
