The groom was kidnapped on the wedding day? Fine! I'll marry someone else.

If Zhao Yunxiang had only asked the first question, no one would have thought too much about it. But when she asked Zhang Hongmei this question, anyone could understand what she meant.

The smiles on the two mothers' faces turned awkward, and they obviously didn't expect her to ask so directly.

Xu Yu snorted inwardly, then said with a smile, "Sister Xiangyun, are you asking this to find out if you can ask Uncle Zhao and the others for pork after you get married? Isn't this based on whether parents love their children?"

After Xu Yu finished speaking, he walked over to Zhang Hongmei, put his arm around her, and said coquettishly, "Mom, I won't ask you for pork, but you have to let Brother Yi and I come back for more meals."

Zhang Hongmei smiled and tapped her forehead, saying, "You are my daughter, and Xiao Jiang is my son-in-law. We often eat the game that Xiao Jiang hunts. This is your home, so come back and eat whenever you want."

Xu Yu glanced at the Zhao family and rubbed his face against Zhang Hongmei's shoulder: "Mom is so good. I am so happy to have a mother like you in my life."

These words gave Zhao's mother and daughter goosebumps.

How can Xu Yu, a grown-up, still act like a spoiled brat?!

Zhao Yunxiang couldn't help but said, "Sister Xiaoyu, you're married and you still come back so often. Aren't you afraid of what people will say?"

"Who said that? You?"

"I...I definitely won't tell you." How could Zhao Yunxiang dare to admit it? She hurriedly explained, "I...I mean, what if Second Brother Xu gets married and your second sister-in-law is unhappy about you coming back? Of course, my second sister is definitely not that kind of person."

"We still don't know where my second brother's wife is. Why should we think so much about it now? As long as my eldest sister-in-law doesn't dislike me, that's all that matters."

Xu Yu smiled and said, "I think my eldest sister-in-law likes me so much, she will definitely not dislike me. As long as she doesn't dislike me, then when we treat our second sister-in-law well, she will definitely not dislike me either. Maybe when I live with my parents, they will be reluctant to let me go."

"..."

The Zhao family's mother and daughter felt that Xu Yu's shamelessness had reached a new level.

Zhao Yunxiang wanted to confront Xu Yu directly, but her mother, observing Zhang Hongmei and Yang Wenhui's expressions, was sure she couldn't continue and immediately scolded her: "Xiangyun, you're the one who talks the most. If you don't know how to speak, just shut up."

Then she smiled and said to Zhang Hongmei and Yang Wenhui, "Don't listen to Xiangyun's nonsense. She's young and naive, and her words are without restraint. I'll go back and teach her a lesson."

Zhang Hongmei and Yang Wenhui definitely said that there is no need for education.

Then a few mothers changed the topic to other things.

Xu Yu didn't go out either. Jiang Yi and Brother Xu came in to help after finishing their work outside. With them around, Zhao Yunxiang didn't dare to talk about sensitive topics anymore.

After the meal was ready, the three families sat down at two tables.

In such occasions, men must drink.

They drank and talked about this year's harvest.

After a few drinks, Zhao's father, who was originally afraid of Jiang Yi, said to him in an elder's tone, "You are the most promising. You have built five brick houses and ordered a TV... But I don't know when we will have electricity here. If you order it too early, will the TV break down?"

Mother Zhao immediately added sourly, "She's rich, she doesn't care about that."

After saying that, he sighed and said, "We can't compare with your family. We are still worried about the betrothal gifts for our children."

Xu Yu immediately continued, "Aunt, don't worry. After my brother and sister-in-law get married, won't we take back the 200 yuan betrothal gift we gave your family? Most families in the village only want 100 yuan as a betrothal gift. When the time comes, we can use this 200 yuan as the betrothal gift for my two brothers."

"Doesn't that mean we still have to take three turns?"

Mother Zhao subconsciously added this sentence, which made grandparents unhappy.

What does this person mean by this? Is he trying to get more betrothal gifts from our grandson to help your two sons get married?!

Grandma raised her voice unhappily and asked, "You have so many strong laborers in your family, haven't you earned enough for the third round yet and you want to ask my third son for it?"

The atmosphere was inexplicably awkward.

Father Zhao scolded Mother Zhao: "Our in-laws invited us to dinner, what nonsense are you talking about!"

Mother Zhao slapped her mouth a few times and said, "Look at me, I'm so chatty. I won't say any more."

After saying that, he picked up the meat and started eating.

Xu Yu looked at his parents and eldest brother calmly, then winked at his second brother.

Xu Kui and Zhang Hongmei came out to smooth things over.

"Drink, drink."

"Eat vegetables, eat vegetables."

The men continued to drink, and later, the three fathers and the men from the Zhao family were all a little drunk.

Everyone helped them to bed to rest for a while.

After settling them down, Xu Yu went out to look for Jiang Yi and Yang Wenhui, and saw Mother Zhao calling her own mother and eldest brother: "Hongmei, Jianjun, come out for a moment, I have something to discuss with you."

The three of them went out.

At this time, Xu Jianping and Jiang Yi walked in from outside.

Xu Jianping whispered to Xu Yu, "Look."

At this time, Grandpa and Grandma, Yang Wenhui, Dr. Hu and Zhao Yunxiang were sitting in the main room warming themselves by the fire.

Doctor Hu said to Xu Yu, "Xiao Xu, how about we go visit your master?"

Xu Yu thought of the things that Brother Yi and the others brought back and left them in town, so he looked at Jiang Yi and said to him, "How about Brother Yi, you take a few cousins ​​with you to carry our things back, and I'll go back with my parents and Doctor Hu later."

Jiang Yi nodded.

Xu Yu went to call his cousins ​​from other families.

The pork was distributed until late last night, so everyone had a day off today. As soon as Xu Yu called them, they all came over.

Jiang Yi told them how much stuff there was, and everyone was very eager to go along.

As soon as they left, Xu Yu said to Yang Wenhui, "Mom, if you're tired, go to your room and rest for a while. Doctor Huang and I will be back soon."

Yang Wenhui nodded at her and said, "Go ahead. Your grandparents and I will warm ourselves by the fire here."

Xu Yu took Dr. Hu out.

When the two of them arrived at Dr. Huang's, Dr. Huang still had a bad face towards Dr. Hu. Finally, Dr. Hu was thick-skinned and took the lead in talking about medical topics. Dr. Huang listened reluctantly, but he didn't say a word.

The two stayed here for two hours before returning to Xu's house.

On the way, Xu Yu happened to meet Xu Jianjun who was seeing off the Zhao family. After observing his expression, he asked, "Brother, what did Auntie say to you and Mom alone?"

Xu Jianjun obviously had no intention of telling her, so he said, "Nothing."

Xu Yu didn't believe it. "I didn't say anything, why are you frowning? Are my aunt and the others asking for more betrothal gifts?"

Xu Jianjun didn't expect his sister to guess it, but he didn't want her to worry about it, so he said, "We just talked about Cui'e and I having a wedding. When the time comes, you and your brother-in-law should remember to come and help in advance."

Xu Yu knew that he couldn't get any information from his eldest brother, so he prepared to go back and ask his second brother.

The three of them returned to Xu's house, and Jiang Qingyun and Xu Kui also got up and sat by the fire in the main room while talking.

When they saw Xu Yu and Dr. Hu coming back, they said they wanted to go back.

Zhang Hongmei took out the pork that she had specially reserved for them and put it in the backpack, and also put several sausages in it for them to take back.

Jiang Qingyun and Yang Wenhui definitely didn't want it, saying that Shangping Village would also be slaughtering pigs in the next two days, and they would buy some then.

Watching the elders pushing and shoving each other, Xu Yu pulled Xu Jianping outside and asked in a low voice, "What did Auntie say to Mom and the others alone?"

Just as Xu Jianping was about to speak, Xu Jianjun's voice interrupted him, "Jianping."

Xu Yu looked at his eldest brother standing behind them and said to him dissatisfiedly: "Brother, your business is our business. Why can't I know if my second brother knows it? Can you still hide this from us?"

Second Brother Xu also said to the eldest brother: "Xiaoyu will know about this sooner or later. So what if she knows? Are you still worried that Xiaoyu will go to the Zhao family and scold them?"

Second Brother Xu's words were unpleasant, and even First Brother Xu's expression became serious.

Second Brother Xu, however, didn't care at all and said directly to Xu Yu, "The Zhao family wants to increase the betrothal gift to 400 yuan and not give a single cent as a dowry. What they mean is that my sister-in-law will have a good job next year, so it's impossible for her to ask for only 200 yuan as other people would. Furthermore, all the money my sister-in-law earns in the future will be given to our Xu family. The Zhao family will suffer a huge loss."
