Chapter 19 The heavy gift scares everyone in the Qin family
Fang Chang looked at little Qin Jingru and smiled and said to Qin Huairu:
"It's okay, let her eat! She can eat a lot."
Qin Huairu curled her lips:
"You spoil her as soon as you get here. What will you do if she becomes dependent on you in the future?"
Fang Chang smiled and said:
"That's not a difficult matter. Why don't we just let her go with us to the city? We don't need another mouth to feed."
Qin Huairu rolled her eyes at Fang Chang:
"What? You still want a maid as a dowry?"
"A maidservant for the dowry? Hmm! Not bad, that's a good idea."
Fang Chang was stunned for a moment and then nodded in agreement.
Qin Huairu was also stunned after saying this. If she let Qin Jingru go to the city with her, she wondered how happy her third uncle and aunt would be when they knew it!
After all, no parent would stop their children from having the opportunity to change their fate if they could move to the city and get away from the hard-working days.
I will tell my uncle and his friends about this when they come back, so that when Jingru grows up, she can help me out and do some errands. ("Instigation" is a dialect in my hometown, which means running errands, such as helping to buy soy sauce and matches.)
Qin Huairu thought about this, rolled her eyes, and walked to the Eight Immortals Table to take out the things Fang Chang bought from the bag.
First, Qin Huairu took out two bottles of Huatian brand malted milk, which were covered with ghostly characters.
I heard that this is a foreign product. Qin Huairu's eyes widened when she heard the price. Just two cans cost ten yuan.
Qin Huairu placed the two cans of malted milk in the most conspicuous place like treasures, so that her parents and her second and third uncles would be able to see them as soon as they entered the house.
Then came the floral cloth, blue cloth, white cotton cloth, and then Qin Huairu took out a small box with beautiful packaging. Qin Huairu imitated Fang Chang opening the watch box while sitting in the hotel, and opened it and placed it on the center of the eight-immortal table.
Finally, Qin Huairu took a look at the things at the bottom of the bag, and then Qin Huairu was also stunned.
When Qin Huairu helped Fang Chang lift the bag down when getting off the car, she found that the bag was very heavy. Qin Huairu was curious at the time! How could the cloth be so heavy?
Now seeing what was under the bag, Qin Huairu understood that it was pork.
Qin Huairu picked up the bag with only pork left in it and weighed it. It felt like it weighed about ten kilograms.
Nowadays, when a family slaughters a pig for the New Year, they only keep about 10 to 20 pounds of fat meat, and sell the rest in the town to earn money to supplement the family income.
"Fang, Brother Fang, when did you buy so much pork?"
Qin Huairu pointed at the pork in the bag and looked at Fang Chang and asked:
"Ah! You mean pork? I asked the owner of the breakfast shop next to the hotel to bring it last night."
"Brother Fang, your betrothal gift is a bit too much. My parents and I have never had such a high betrothal gift. Even the village chief's family didn't have such a high betrothal gift when marrying their daughter-in-law!"
Qin Huairu was so moved that she couldn't help it. Not only did the man she found take the top spot in the area, but he also took the top spot in terms of betrothal gifts.
When I return to my village or my parents' home in the future, I wonder how many young girls and wives will be envious of me.
However, when she thought of that scene, Qin Huairu suddenly felt happy.
"Mom and Dad, hurry up, my sister brought back a very handsome man. Dad, the man my sister brought back is half a head taller than you!"
"Okay, you've said it all."
"Kid, you're already home, stop talking now, it would be embarrassing if others heard it."
Father Qin was very nervous along the way, fearing that his daughter's blind date would look down on his daughter after seeing his family's situation, and that she would suffer a loss when she married him.
When her daughter was young, she looked forward to her growing up. Now that she has grown up and is about to get married, Qin's mother is both happy and reluctant. When she thinks that her daughter is about to get married, she feels empty in her heart.
I'm afraid it won't be long before my family no longer has that person who helps me run errands all day long.
"Brother Fang, my parents are back."
Qin Huairu said as she ran to open the door.
Fang Chang also carried Qin Jingru to the door to greet Qin's father and mother.
"Mom, Dad, Second Uncle, Second Aunt, Third Uncle, Third Aunt, you are back!"
"Let me introduce you. This is my blind date, Fang Chang."
"Brother Fang, this is my dad, and this is my mom."
Qin Huairu pointed at Fang Chang who was holding Qin Jingru and introduced him to Qin's father and mother.
Fang Chang held little Qin Jingru in his arms and nodded to Qin's father and mother with a simple smile:
"Hello, Uncle Qin! Hello, Aunt Qin!"
"Brother Fang! This is my second uncle and second aunt!"
Qin Jingru introduced her second uncle and second aunt to Fang Chang. Fang Chang greeted Uncle Qin and Aunt Qin with a smile and a nod:
"Hello, Second Uncle! Hello, Second Aunt!"
"This is my third uncle and aunt!"
Uncle Qin saw Fang Chang holding Qin Jingru and said to Aunt Qin:
"Go and pick up Jingru quickly. How can you let your future son-in-law help hold a child when he first comes to your house?"
"Jingru, come down to your mother."
Aunt Qin San stretched out her hand to hug Qin Jingru, but Qin Jingru's mind was now full of the delicious food given by her big brother, so she had no time to care about her mother. Qin Jingru was in Fang Chang's arms, with one hand around Fang Chang's neck and the other holding jerky. When she heard her mother calling her, she hugged Fang Chang's neck tightly and buried her face in it.
Fang Chang said to Aunt Qin San with a simple smile on his face:
"It's okay, Third Aunt. I like this little girl Jingru very much."
"Well, that doesn't make sense for you to hold the child in your arms on your first visit!"
Aunt Qin was not a good talker. While she was talking, she looked at Uncle Qin to ask what he thought.
"Uncle, I'll be fine if I hold her. This Jingru girl isn't heavy. Let's go into the house!"
At this time, villagers who heard the news were gathering outside the Qin family wall.
In just over half an hour, the few naughty kids who had been playing at Qin Huairu's house had spread the news that Qin Huairu had brought her boyfriend back to the whole village.
These naughty kids first ran to the threshing ground of Qinjia Village and started yelling, then ran around the village, saying to everyone they met:
"Qin Hu's sister brought her blind date back from the city!"
In this way, when the idle old men and women and half-grown children heard that Qin Huairu had brought back a blind date from the city, they were curious and wanted to take a look at what the blind date was like.
Qin family.
When Qin Huairu's parents, second uncle and second aunt, third uncle and third aunt entered the room, they saw the eight-immortal table filled with things, three pieces of cloth, and a sparkling watch in a delicate little box. Especially when they saw the twenty or thirty kilograms of white fat on the table, the visual impact was too great.
Qin Huairu was very satisfied with the expressions on the faces of her parents, second uncle, second aunt, third uncle, and third aunt. She said happily to Qin's father and mother:
"Mom and Dad, these things were brought here by Fang Chang. They are, yes, betrothal gifts!"
As Qin Huairu spoke, her face turned red and her voice became lower and lower.
Father Qin looked at the things on the Eight Immortals Table for a long time without saying a word. They were too valuable. His daughter was just a country girl. How could she be worth such a heavy gift?
"Hey, Mr. Fang, that uncle will call you Xiao Fang!"
Fang Chang held Qin Jingru in his arms and said to Qin's father with a simple and honest face:
"Uncle! Just ask me if you have anything to say."
Father Qin pointed at the things on the table:
"Xiao Fang! This is too expensive. If others don't know, they would think that I am selling my daughter!"
"Uncle! How can you call this selling your daughter? This is my gift to you and aunt. You two have worked hard to raise Huairu and brought her up so well and so outstanding over the years. This, this is not enough. If Huairu hadn't stopped me, I would have wanted to buy a bicycle."
"What? You want to buy a bicycle?"
"You kid, it's a good thing you didn't buy it. If you had bought it, we would have let you take it back."
"Yes! Xiao Fang! You live in the city, you don't know that people should not show off their wealth, otherwise they will easily be hated!"
Uncle Qin spoke the most honest words from his heart.
Father Qin nodded in agreement and said:
"Yes! Xiao Fang! Don't waste that money. Save it for you and Huairu to live with in the future. As long as you two live well, it's better than anything else."
"Mother, go kill a rooster, Qin Hu, go to the river and catch some fish."
After Qin's father told Qin's mother to kill the chicken, he asked Qin Hu, the naughty boy, to go catch fish in the river.
"Catching fish? Uncle, are there a lot of fish in the river?"
When Fang Chang heard about going to the river to catch fish, he asked curiously.
Father Qin nodded:
"Yes, there are quite a lot of them. Those naughty boys like Qin Hu in the village spend all day fishing by the river, and it's a good opportunity to improve the food at home."
Fang Chang nodded upon hearing this.
