Chapter 316 This is good
Actually, Liu Mingyue is a really pitiful person. When she was at her mother's house, her parents didn't like her very much because she was a girl. In order to arrange her brother's marriage, they arranged a marriage for her.
Maybe many people don't know what swapping brides is, but Xie Jiaojiao knows, because even if she didn't travel through time, swapping brides was very common in the countryside of her time. Two families, both with sons and daughters, but without money to marry their sons, would swap brides, that is, the daughter of this family would marry to the other family, and the daughter of the other family would marry to this family, so that both sons would get married...
After all, it's all for the purpose of continuing the family line.
Liu Mingyue's family exchanged her for a bride, but even after she got married, her in-laws didn't like her, especially her husband, who just treated her as a tool to continue the family line. Even if her mother-in-law beat and scolded her, her husband remained unmoved...
The person who inquired came back and said, "Liu Mingyue was always hurt when she was in her husband's family. The only one who protected her was her child who was only a few years old."
Thinking about that scene, Xie Jiaojiao couldn't help but sigh in her heart. Most women in this era are just accessories of men.
Therefore, no one knows whether this flood is a blessing or a curse for Liu Mingyue!
You say it is a blessing, as several members of her husband's family are dead, including her son. But you say it is a disaster, as if there had not been this flood, she would not have been able to escape from that house, let alone meet Xie Zhili...
Xie Jiaojiao shook her head and said, forget it, I don’t want to think about it anymore.
"What's wrong?" Jiang Weinan asked softly beside her.
Xie Jiaojiao shook her head: "Nothing, let's go."
The two arrived at Xie Zhili's house, and Jiang Weinan was amazed at the newly built house.
"Is this a brick? How can there be bricks of this color?" As he said this, he touched it with his hand.
Cuizhu said beside him: "Master, this is adobe!"
"earth?"
Xie Jiaojiao came up and said, "It's just clay, but it hasn't been fired."
Jiang Weinan nodded repeatedly: "Except for the color, it is no different from bricks."
Sun Ruhua came out with some dishes at this time: "Come over and gather around."
Xie Jiaojiao then pulled Jiang Weinan into the main house.
The tables and chairs in this room all look new, and I guess Xie Zhili must have spent a lot of time on them.
Sun Ruhua smiled and said, "There are two more dishes. Please take a seat first, they will be served soon."
As she spoke, Sun Ruhua pushed Liu Mingyue towards another room.
Liu Mingyue blushed with embarrassment, and could not help but make a look at Xie Zhili who was coming back from fetching water from the yard. Her face turned even redder, and she lowered her head and closed the door with a red face.
As soon as she closed the door, Sun Ruhua turned around and looked at Xie Zhili: "Go change your clothes."
Xie Zhili nodded quickly.
When the food was served, Wang Xiuer helped Liu Mingyue over and she smiled and shouted, "The bride is here."
Liu Mingyue was wearing a red dress and a red veil on her head.
As soon as she came out, Xie Zhili came out from another room. He had also changed into clean clothes, with a red flower tied on his chest, and looked a little embarrassed. It must be because he had dressed up well, because he actually looked a little heroic.
Actually, he is only in his twenties. If he were in Xie Jiaojiao's era, he would be just a young man who has just entered the society. But in this era, because of the long-term work, he is already considered a middle-aged man.
Xie Zhili scratched his head a little embarrassedly, and there was a rare smile on his honest face.
Walking up quickly, Wang Xiuer also supported Liu Mingyue and walked towards the main room.
Sun Ruhua sat in the main seat.
Wang Xiuer supported Liu Mingyue and came to Xie Zhili.
Xie Zhili quickly took off the red flower on his body, handed it to Liu Mingyue, and held it himself.
Because it was a second marriage, the two men kowtowed three times to Sun Ruhua, and that was considered the completion of the ceremony.
Niu Er quickly set off firecrackers in the yard.
The villagers heard the sound of firecrackers and wondered who was doing the wrong thing. They looked up and saw white smoke rising from Xie Zhili's house...
Sun Ruhua helped the two of them up. Although her eyes were a little moist, she was happy in her heart and had a smile on her face.
"Okay, okay, from now on you two must love each other and support this family."
"My son/daughter-in-law knows."
Sun Ruhua gave two red envelopes to both of them.
Xie Zhili didn't even look at it and just stuffed it all to Liu Mingyue.
Liu Mingyue felt relieved under the red veil. After all, this had never happened before in her ex-husband's family.
At this time, Xie Jiaojiao also handed over the gift she had prepared to Xie Zhili: "Live a good life from now on."
Xie Zhili was embarrassed to accept it, so Sun Ruhua said, "Jiaojiao is giving it to you, so just accept it."
"Thank you Jiaojiao." Xie Zhili then accepted it.
He accepted it and immediately gave it to Liu Mingyue.
Everyone was laughing, and Liu Mingyue, who was under the veil, felt very embarrassed.
Mrs. Wang also took out a red envelope and said, "Zhili, consider this as Aunt Wang's gift to you for congratulations."
"Aunt Wang, please don't. You built a house and bought so many poultry. You don't have much money. I just want to have a simple meal with you."
Mrs. Wang pretended to be angry: "This is a big wedding day, how can you not accept it? Hurry up and accept it, otherwise the food will get cold."
Xie Zhili then accepted it and gave it to Liu Mingyue.
Liu Mingyue felt that these things were very hot, but her heart was warm.
"Okay, quickly send Mingyue back to the house, and then come out to eat."
Xie Zhili took Liu Mingyue to the main house and helped her sit on the edge of the bed.
As soon as Liu Mingyue sat down, he took out a steamed bun from his arms and said, "Eat it first, and I'll bring you some hot food later."
Liu Mingyue nodded gently and said in a gentle voice: "Go and get busy. Don't keep them waiting."
Although this meal was not a feast, everyone enjoyed it very much. Even Sun Ruhua, who rarely drank, couldn't help but pull Wang Pozi to have two drinks.
Jiang Weinan and Xie Zhili drank even more happily.
"Second brother, I have wanted to toast you with this glass of wine for a long time. Last time you testified for me in the county government, I never had the chance to thank you."
When Xie Zhili heard Jiang Weinan calling him "second brother", he hurried to see Xie Jiaojiao, fearing that she would be unhappy. However, Xie Jiaojiao ignored him and was listening to Sun Ruhua and Wang Po talking about gossip in the village.
But Xie Zhili knew that she had heard it, and he was happy. He raised his glass and drank with Jiang Weinan in a toast.
After drinking for a while, Jiang Weinan held Xie Zhili's shoulders and said incoherently: "Second brother, at the beginning, you were really a piece of shit. Many times, I wanted to beat you up for Jiaojiao."
Xie Zhili was a little embarrassed, but Jiang Weinan changed the subject: "However, it was only once or twice. I know what happened afterwards. You are very good. You must live a good life. Mom has been worried about you. If you are sick, we will treat it so that Mom can rest assured."
Xie Zhili nodded with red eyes, feeling a sense of being recognized.
Niu Er and Wang Xiuer were sitting by the door. Niu Er drank a little bit of wine and his face was a little red.
Wang Xiuer smiled and said, "This kind of day is really good."
Niu Er listened to her words and turned to look at her: "I will let you live a better life in the future."
Wang Xiuer took his arm, looked at him, and said with a smile: "That's good."
Niu Er didn't say anything, he just looked at her lovingly and smiled, then looked up at the clear sky and said to himself: He must make a lot of money, and when he and Xiu'er get married, he wants to give her a good wedding and doesn't want to let her down.
