The next morning, the Xiaoqiu sisters had just woken up, and before they had finished washing up, Yuan Zhenxing came over happily.

"Qiu, I have good news for you, my parents have agreed with us!" As soon as Yuan Zhenxing entered the dormitory, he couldn't hold back and said excitedly.

Xiao Qiu was stunned.

Yesterday, Zhenxing's parents still looked like they were incompatible with her. Why did their attitude take a 180-degree turn overnight?

"Zhenxing, is this... is it true? Your parents agreed? You didn't lie to me?" Xiaoqiu looked at Yuan Zhenxing dubiously and said hesitantly.

Yuan Zhenxing couldn't care less about avoiding Xiao Si and Xiao Wu next to Dian Dian. He put his hands on Xiao Qiu's shoulders and said solemnly: "This is true! My parents also said that they asked me to take you tonight. Go back and discuss our marriage!"

"Ah, in such a hurry?" Xiao Si exclaimed from the side.

Yuan Zhenxing said with a smile, "It's not a rush, it's efficiency! My parents thought that your third sister has no place to live now, and you have to live in a dormitory during the holidays, and there is no place to go on Sundays on weekdays, so they thought about letting us both hurry up. Getting married will help your third sister settle down, and besides, we are old enough to get married."

He didn't dare to say the lie he told his parents last night, "Xiaoqiu is pregnant". If Xiaoqiu knew that he was panicking like that, he would definitely be unhappy.

After listening to Yuan Zhenxing's explanation, Xiaoqiu felt relieved.

At this moment, Xiao Wu suddenly said in shock, "Eh? Brother Yuan, what's wrong with your face? Why are your cheeks still blue?"

When Yuan Zhenxing heard this, he hurriedly covered his cheeks, and said in a hesitant manner, "No...it's okay, when I went back last night, I accidentally fell and fell blue..."

"Really? Let me see?" Xiao Qiu heard that Yuan Zhenxing's face turned blue, and hurriedly stepped forward to take his hand away, and after a closer look, the cheek on the left was indeed green.

However, at first glance, this cheek was not smashed, but was beaten, and there were still lines on it, as if it had been slapped by something.

"Zhenxing, what's the matter with you? Have you been beaten? Is it because of me that your parents beat you?" Xiaoqiu cried out in distress.

Seeing that the handsome face of her beloved was injured, Xiaoqiu was very distressed, and felt as if her heart was being pulled up.

Yuan Zhenxing smiled embarrassedly, and said in a low voice, "I beat him twice, but it's okay, I'm a man, and I'm rough. I'm resistant to beatings. This injury is nothing, as long as my parents agree to our business. , I'd be happy to beat him harder..."

These words moved Xiao Qiu in a mess again. She guessed that Zhenxing must have received the approval of her parents by enduring the beating last night.

So, under the impression that she couldn't even care about the restraint that a girl should have, Yuan Zhenxing said that she would come to pick her up tonight to discuss marriage, and she agreed without hesitation.

The opportunity that the man she loves has exchanged for such a big price, if she hesitates, it will be disrespect and blasphemy to this relationship...

On the other hand, Xiao Si and Xiao Wu were more sober. Xiao Si said, "Third sister, it's not enough for you to discuss such a big matter of marriage alone! It's better to let the second aunt and sister-in-law also go with you, or you will go alone. , why don't you wait and suffer a loss?"

When Xiao Qiu heard it, she felt that what Xiao Si said was also reasonable. Marriage is such a big thing, it's really not good to be the master of it alone, it's better to let the second aunt and sister-in-law support the scene for him, and it also saves his parents from making any other moths.

"Zhenxing, let my second aunt and my sister-in-law also go in the evening, let's discuss together, okay?" Xiaoqiu asked Yuan Zhenxing gently for advice.

Yuan Zhenxing hesitated for a moment and said, "Okay, I'll go back and tell my parents later."

If Xiaoqiu went alone, there must be something to eat at home. But if her aunt and sister-in-law both go, the family will have to prepare to order food, and I don't know if my parents can afford to buy two decent dishes to pretend to be a face...

The matter was settled like this, and then the Xiaoqiu sisters finished their grooming and left the school with Yuan Zhenxing. At the snack bar at the entrance of the school, they had breakfast, and then Yuan Zhenxing walked home. Xiaoqiu and the others took the bus to work in the garment factory.

During the winter and summer vacations, they all go to work in garment factories. Although they are temporary workers, their sister-in-law, Han Mingxiu, treats them well, and they each earn forty or fifty yuan each holiday.

In this era, a regular worker can earn around 30 yuan, which is quite a lot. These young girls with no qualifications can earn 40 or 50 yuan, which is considered a high salary in this era. .

They are also very grateful to Han Mingxiu for the treatment, so they are very attentive in their work, lest they do poorly and let down their sister-in-law's love for them.

After getting off the bus, it took another five minutes to walk to the garment factory. After arriving at the factory, Xiao Si and Xiao Wu went to the workshop and the canteen respectively. Xiao Qiu went to the manager's office first, found Han Mingxiu, and told him what he wanted to come here. said.

When Han Mingxiu heard that Xiaoqiu had started discussing marriage so soon, he was very surprised and said in surprise, "Xiaoqiu, you have only been with him for a few days, why are you getting married so soon?"

Xiaoqiu said embarrassedly: "Sister-in-law, in fact, I don't want to get married so soon, but Zhenxing he managed to persuade his parents to accept me. If I raise doubts again, I'm afraid that Zhenxing's parents will talk about me. Too much, making it difficult for revitalization..."

Han Mingxiu frowned, she heard the mystery in Xiaoqiu's words.

"You mean, Yuan Zhenxing's parents didn't accept you at first, and he made his parents accept you after he finished his work?"

Xiaoqiu sighed and said helplessly: "Yes, sister-in-law, you know, I am from the countryside, I eat white books, and I will not have a formal job in the future. My father is gone, and my mother is still serving time in prison. My brother has lost all of his family, and with my conditions, it is normal to be rejected by others..."

Han Mingxiu made up his mind, and suddenly felt that what Xiaoqiu said was quite reasonable.

If it was her, she would definitely not be willing to find a girl with such a family background as her daughter-in-law. It is reasonable for Yuan Zhenxing's family to object.

Han Mingxiu pondered for a while, and said, "Xiaoqiu, you are not too young, and you should have the ability to distinguish right from wrong. Since you are already optimistic about him, the sister-in-law will not say much. The sister-in-law blesses you, I hope you can follow up with him. Comrade Xiao Yuan can be a loving husband and wife and grow old together, tonight, my sister-in-law will go with you..."

"That's great, thank you sister-in-law!" Xiaoqiu smiled happily when she saw Han Mingxiu agree so readily, and she knew that her sister-in-law would definitely go with her...

At noon, taking advantage of the lunch break of the garment factory, Xiaoqiu got on the bus again, made a special trip to the courtyard, and told her aunt about going to Lao Yuan's house to discuss marriage.

Zhang Shuzhen heard that Xiaoqiu had a partner, and invited her to help discuss marriage at night, and she couldn't help but feel a little lost.

For a long time, she always hoped that Xiaoqiu could be her daughter-in-law. However, considering that Wang Shufen will definitely come out of prison to find trouble in the future, she had to reluctantly part with her.

Now, she heard that Xiaoqiu had a partner, which made him have a feeling of worrying about gains and losses.

"Second Aunt, you must go! Otherwise, I don't have any elders here. Although my sister-in-law can be in charge, she is too young to be able to hold the scene..." Xiaoqiu pleaded.

Zhang Shuzhen twitched the corners of her mouth and said, "Go, Second Aunt must go! Don't worry, Second Aunt promises to help you order more gifts!"

When Xiaoqiu heard this, she quickly said: "Second aunt, you misunderstood, I won't ask you to help me ask for a dowry! His father works alone in the Zhenxing family, and several of their family are supported by his father's salary. Well, his mother is a temporary worker, and he doesn't make a lot of money, and their family doesn't have any money, so don't mention the dowry."

"Ah? What do you mean, if you don't want a penny as a betrothal gift, you'll marry for nothing?" Zhang Shuzhen stared at Xiao Qiu with an expression of disbelief.

Xiaoqiu said, "It doesn't matter whether the betrothal or dowry is given. What I value is his person. As long as the person is good, I'm happy to eat with him. willing."

When Zhang Shuzhen heard it, she immediately said bitterly, "Xiaoqiu, you can't think so! Although our family doesn't expect their family to live with a little dowry, this wedding gift is a custom left by our ancestors for generations.

It is also an attitude that the man respects the woman's approval, but it is a process. When you get married in the future, no matter how much dowry they give you, you will eventually bring it back to your in-law's house. "

"But you brought it back with you. When you get married, you must have this dowry! If you don't even want the dowry, they will not be grateful to you. Daughter-in-law, there are even those who get cheap and sell well, and they will say that you are worthless, so you should pay for it, so, you should have to pay for this dowry, but you can’t make them look down, don’t let them think that we are rushing. Post them upside down!"

What the aunt said was to educate Xiaoqiu based on the experience of people who came here, but unfortunately Xiaoqiu, who was deeply in love, did not agree with the views of the aunt.

She felt that it was a new society now, and customs such as dowry gifts belonged to the dross of the old society. They were bad habits and were not worthy of respect. Anyway, she wouldn't ask Zhenxing for a dowry, and she couldn't bear to ask him for a dowry.

Regarding the issue of the bride price, you can do whatever you want. If they have more, they will give more, and if they have less, they will give less. If they don't give her, they don't force anything.

Zhang Shuzhen told her a lot with bitterness, but Xiaoqiu was like a king who had eaten a weight, and she was determined not to give a dowry. Although Zhang Shuzhen did not agree with her idea, she insisted not to do so, even her former second aunt. I can't do it on my behalf, I have to do it according to other people's ideas...
