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

Chapter 325 Brotherly Harmony

After sending Xiao Tang away, Xu Yu and the others packed up their things, went to the bus station, and asked the driver who was familiar with Xu Jianjun to take a message, and then went back.

After returning to the town, Xu Yu and the others followed Xu Jianping to the Xu family.

Everyone is still waiting for the results.

It was lunchtime, and several families gathered around.

Xu Jianping smiled and said to everyone, "Xiao Tang's parents have agreed to our relationship. They said we can date for a few months and then discuss engagement and marriage."

Hearing this, everyone was happy for him.

All of them said nice words of congratulations.

Xu Jianping responded with a laugh.

After several families left and they finished their meal, Xu Jianping told his parents about the Tang family's request.

After hearing this, the two of them were obviously silent for a while.

After a while, Zhang Hongmei spoke first: "Xiao Tang is already very outstanding, and it is only natural for his family to ask for this amount of betrothal gifts."

Xu Kui asked how much money he had on him.

After Xu Jianping finished speaking, Xu Kui said, "Then let's build the house first."

Xu Jianping told them about his plans again.

Xu Kui and Zhang Hongmei thought that the old family was indeed planning to renovate the house, and thought it would be okay for the two brothers to do it together.

After the three of them finished speaking, Xu Yu and Jiang Yi spoke.

Xu Yu said, "Brother Yi and I have money on us. If Second Brother needs anything, we can lend it to you."

Xu Jianping wants to speak.

Xu Yu deliberately smiled and said, "Of course, even siblings have to settle accounts clearly. If you really want to borrow money, you can use the pigs you raise as collateral."

Hearing this, Xu Jianping put away his refusal and a bright smile appeared on his face. He looked at Xu Yu and Jiang Yi with gratitude and said to them, "Thank you."

Xu Yu said to him: "Do you still regard me as your sister? If I encounter any problems, I don't believe that you won't lend me money."

"Of course I'll borrow it! I'll borrow as much as I can!"

"That's it."

Xu Kui and Zhang Hongmei were worried when they heard their second son talk about the dowry the Tang family wanted, but now they couldn't help laughing when they heard their daughter say that.

After they talked for a while, Xu Jianping changed into his usual work clothes and said, "I'm going to work. Regardless of whether I can borrow money from my sister's family or not, I'm going to raise my pigs well."

He is now full of energy.

In his heart, he still wanted to raise pigs himself and earn money to marry Xiao Tang, so that he would have more confidence.

In particular, he didn't tell everyone that he was actually holding a grudge in his heart, and wanted to rely on his own ability to come up with the betrothal gift requested by Xiao Tang's mother.

Watching her second son leave with a hoe on his shoulder, Zhang Hongmei felt both happy and distressed. In the past two years, they had married off their daughter and their son's wife, so they didn't have much left.

As a mother, I definitely hope to help my children relieve stress.

Although Xu Kui didn't show it, he was ready to go out to work.

But before he left, he couldn't help but hug his grandson and granddaughter. Looking at the two cute babies, his heart melted. He said to Yang Wenhui and the others, "Mother-in-law, Xiao Jiang, let's have dinner here today before going back."

Yang Wenhui quickly refused: "We have something to do at home, we will leave soon."

Xu Kui nodded, knowing that everyone was busy at this time, so he didn't force him to stay and said, "Then I'll go out to work first."

After saying that, he walked outside.

Xu Yu looked at his back, thought for a moment and followed him out.

Jiang Yi also followed him out.

The three of them walked towards the field together.

Xu Yu said, "Dad, don't worry about my second brother and Xiao Tang. They are both capable, so this little bit of betrothal gift is really nothing."

Xu Kui was silent for a while before he said, "Little Tang is so outstanding. The Tang family deserves whatever amount of betrothal gifts they ask for. It's just... alas, we don't have the ability."

"Dad, why do you say that?"

Xu Yu simply hugged his arm and boasted without blushing or beating his heart: "If you were incompetent, how could you and mom give birth to such capable children like us."

These words immediately brought a smile to Xu Kui's face.

Especially Jiang Yi said at this time: "You know Xiaoyu is making medicine here. After we go out on May Day, I will bring some people back. Even if Jianping's pork can't be sold by then, I still need pork here. You and mom just need to support him in raising pigs."

Xu Kui was a little surprised: "Does Xiaoyu need so many people to make medicine now?"

"I need people to collect herbs." Xu Yu said, "These people will often go to the mountains to collect herbs. However, collecting herbs is dangerous, otherwise I would have gone directly to my family... So I have been asking you to plant more herbs. When they are ready, Brother Yi and I will buy them at a high price."

Xu Kui was silent for a moment when he heard this, but he already had a plan in mind.

He said: "I will ask everyone to open up more land and plant more herbs."

Xu Yu said the same thing: "Dad, you and Mom don't have to worry about the betrothal gift for Second Brother. Now you just need to support Second Brother in raising the pigs well."

Xu Kui nodded, already having an idea in his mind.

Two days later, Xu Jianping and Zhao Cui'e returned.

As soon as they came back, they came to pick up Xu Yu and the two babies, and also called Jiang Yi, who was busy, to come over early for dinner.

When they both knew that Xu Jianping and Xiao Tang were dating, they were very happy for him.

On the way to Xu's house, Xu Yu told the two about the Tang family's requirements, and the three of them had a good chat about how to help Xu Jianping.

After dinner in the evening, the family sat together to discuss building a house.

Xu Jianjun and Zhao Cui'e had originally planned to build a house, and they both had the money to build it, so they definitely agreed to build it together.

Xu Jianjun said: "The money my second brother has is used to pay for the betrothal gift, and we will pay for the house construction."

Xu Jianping didn't expect his elder brother to say that, and subconsciously objected: "How can this be possible? Building a house is not something that can be done with just a few dozen dollars. It costs hundreds of dollars. How can I ask you to pay for my new house?"

Zhao Cui'e said to him, "When we built the house, it was you and your parents who took care of it at home. We didn't contribute anything. Now you need money, how can we, as your elder brother and sister-in-law, not help you out? If you really think we're at a disadvantage, then consider it a favor from us. Once you get married, your elder brother and I won't give you any more."

Xu Jianjun: “Yes.”

Xu Jianping was anxious and moved, and said that he could not defeat his elder brother and sister-in-law. For a moment, he wiped his face in a bit of a loss, and then looked at Xu Yu, wanting her to help him speak.

Xu Yu pretended not to understand his expression and said with a smile, "Second brother, my eldest brother and his wife have already given us the money in advance. You must marry Xiao Tang back home as soon as possible."

Zhao Cui'e: "Yes, we are still waiting to drink in your wedding wine. We all like Xiao Tang and can't wait for you to marry her back."

Xu Yu: "That's right."

Xu Jianping listened to the two people talking back and forth, and suddenly couldn't help laughing.

He knew that his elder brother and sister-in-law and Jiang Yi's sister were all trying their best to help him. He was so touched that he said to them seriously, "Consider this money as a loan. When I have money, I will definitely pay you back. Also, I will take care of all the meat for Kang Kang, Tang Tang, and Guo Guo from now on."

Xu Yu hurriedly raised Guoguo's little hand in his arms and waved it, saying to her, "Guoguo, let's thank our second uncle quickly."

Xiao Guoguo's hand was raised and shaken, which obviously made her very happy. She immediately grinned and showed a toothless smile.

Xu Yu raised Tangtang's hand, which Zhang Hongmei was holding, and shook it: "Our Tangtang also wants to thank Second Uncle."

Tangtang actually smiled at Xu Jianping.

Xu Jianping's heart melted when he saw it.

Zhao Cui'e also hurriedly asked Kang Kang to thank his second uncle.

Kang Kang, who was about eight months old, smiled at Xu Jianping with a few teeth showing and drooling, and jumped on Xu Jianjun's thighs while shaking the rattle in his hand.

Everyone couldn't help laughing when they saw it.

Then everyone discussed where the two brothers should build their house.

Xu Jianjun and his team must have demolished their house and rebuilt it, and Xu Jianping built his house not far from them.

Then we discussed a lot of things.

Finally, let’s talk about Xu Jianping’s pig farming.

Xu Jianping said: "I plan to study how to raise and fatten the pigs faster. If I can shorten the time, I can make more money this year."

Then he said to Xu Yu and Jiang Yi, "When you go to the provincial capital, please help me find some books on pig farming and bring them back. I want to learn."

Xu Yu and Jiang Yi would definitely agree.

In the blink of an eye, it was April 20th.

Jiang Yi has received more calls in the past few days, and it is obvious that they are urging him to do something.

Xu Yu also received many calls.

Zhu Juncheng and Ren Liping are getting married on May 5th, and they are also urging them to go.

Doctor Hu even called her and asked, "Xiao Yu'er, how much medicine can you bring? We're really short of those drugs here."

Xu Yu gave him a number and said, "The military is also asking for it. What we are short of now is medicinal herbs. We have to wait until we have enough people to plant and collect herbs in the mountains before we can increase the quantity."

That's right, they not only want to go deep into the mountains to collect herbs, but also plan to secretly plant more herbs in places suitable for herb growth.

Doctor Hu said helplessly: "That's fine, but give as much as you can."

Then he smiled and said, "When the doctors who went to your place come back, they will use the method you taught them to make medicine here, and everyone will be much more relaxed."

In addition to Dr. Hu calling Xu Yu, Dr. Chang also called.

Doctor Chang wanted them to bring Huanhuan over to play for a while, but she also knew that it would not work if Huanhuan came alone, so she said, "When the time comes, ask Brother Xu and Sister Zhang if you can bring Jianhua along. If Jianhua comes, Huanhuan will definitely follow."

Xu Yu smiled and replied, "Okay, I'll ask when the time comes."
