He didn't know that the Wei family came to kiss, and came out of the house to see what happened.

When Zhang matchmaker saw Zhou Yuan, she went up to greet him warmly and boasted: "This is Brother Zhou. He looks so good and his eyes are bright. No wonder he fell in love with the second son of the Wei family.

" I haven't seen him before, Zhou Ge'er's appearance is still average in her eyes, she opens her mouth and praises Zhou Ge'er for being good-looking, a matchmaker's mouth, a deceiving mouth.

Zhou Yuan didn't know what was going on until the matchmaker Zhang put the pastry gift box in his hand.

"This is what Wei Cheng asked me to bring to Zhou's house, and he specially ordered that it must be handed over to you, saying that it was a snack bought for you." Zhang matchmaker joked, "I have said so many kisses, this is the first time I see a man like this. Be considerate, and specially buy snacks for the relative!"

Zhang matchmaker was invited by the Wei family committee to go to Qinghe Village to speak, saying that the relative is still a brother.

It's rare for people in the county to marry a countryman, and it's not that they haven't seen them before, so she was a little surprised. When she went to Wei Cheng, Wei Cheng asked her to bring a few boxes of cakes and hand them over to Zhou Ge'er. She was really surprised. Those are Baixiangzhai pastries, and they are not cheap. Wei Cheng even bought them for his brother, which shows that he really cares about the Wei family brother.

In addition to being surprised, the matchmaker Zhang also opened her eyes.

Of course, this is also because Wei Cheng gave half a tael of silver as a thank you, so she did it properly, and was even more warm and polite to the Zhou family.

Zhou Yuanming's eyes were wide open, and he couldn't believe what he heard.

Wei Cheng really came to propose marriage? ! !

He even bought snacks for him!

Is he dreaming?

Zhou's mother recovered, Wei Cheng asked a matchmaker to come to propose marriage, she was happy from the bottom of her heart, and her previous anger was swept away. No one in the village dares to talk nonsense anymore. If anyone speaks ill of her brother behind her back in the future, that person's mouth will definitely be torn apart.

Zhou's mother is usually a good-natured person, so she is so sturdy, she is really angry!

Mother Zhou warmly welcomed matchmaker Zhang into the house. She even listened to every word of matchmaker Zhang's words to her brother. Wei Cheng's act of caring for her brother made her very gratified. People bring cakes, usually only when they are hired, but this is not the case with her brother.

Zhou's mother became more satisfied with Wei Cheng's brother-in-law.

Mother Zhou arranged for the matchmaker Zhang to sit down, turned around and went to the kitchen to pour a bowl of sugar water to entertain the matchmaker Zhang, and did not forget to greet Aunt Chun who led the way to the matchmaker, "Aunt Chun, drink a bowl of sugar water, the hospitality is not good, thank you for leading the way!"

Aunt Chun drank the sugar water and said congratulations, and asked Mother Zhou to do her work. Don't worry about her, they are all neighbors in the village, so you don't need to say hello.

Mother Zhou thanked him again before entering the room, and did not forget to let the eldest grandson who had just returned home inform his grandfather and them.

Mother Zhou returned to the house and saw her brother standing at a loss. It was very funny. Her sharp eyes could clearly see this pastry gift box, which she had never seen before, and the packaging was much higher grade than last time.

This time, Mother Zhou was in the mood to tease her brother, "Yuanyuan, matchmaker Zhang came to kiss you, whether you want to go back to the room or stay!"

Zhou Yuan blushed and was very nervous, "Mother, I, I'll go back. room."

Zhou Yuan was nervous, he carried the cake gift box back to the bedroom, and forgot to put it down. Mother Zhou did not remind him when she saw it, and let him take it back to the room.

It was a gift that Wei Cheng specially bought for her brother, and she wouldn't let the white-eyed wolf eat a little bit.

Today is her brother's happy event. She doesn't care about it for now. Mother Zhou thought with a calm face and turned around with a smile on her face.

Father Zhou and the others hadn't come back, and the two elders of the Zhou family came over first, shaking their old bones.

"Third siblings, parents are here, come out to meet them!"

The aunt of the Zhou family brought the two elders to the door. Before entering the door, she shouted loudly. Before entering the door, she saw many people watching from the outside, bowing their heads and whispering. discussing. She didn't hear what was being discussed, so she thought it was talking about Zhou Yuan's rumors, and winked directly, "Father, mother, I'm right, everyone in the village came to see our Zhou family jokes." The

two elders were already angry. , After listening to this, her anger soared, and Mrs. Zhou was furious, "It's a shameful thing, this time I must discipline Brother Zhou well!" With that expression, if she didn't punish Brother Zhou severely, she wouldn't be able to let go of the suffocating anger. .

Mrs. Zhou doesn't like seeing her brother, she has been protecting Zhou Yuan from the third family for a long time, and she has always had opinions in her heart. One brother still treats him as a treasure.

The third child is doting on her brother, she can at most say a few words in front of her son, even if Zhou Yuan's marriage has never been completed, she is not happy, so she called someone to reprimand it, but she was not upset.

But this time, Zhou Yuan did something that ruined the reputation of the Zhou family. She would not tolerate it. The Zhou family was also a respectable portal in Qinghe Village.

Mrs. Zhou is the best face!

There is another reason why she doesn't like Zhou Yuan. Originally, the eldest family lived a prosperous life. Since Zhou Yuan was born, the third eldest family has suffered three accidents one after another. For this reason, he sold a few acres of prime land.

She just complained about these things in her heart. After all, everyone was fine later on, and after the separation, she seldom pointed fingers at the separated son.

Mrs. Zhou, she also remembered that a few days ago, when her eldest family was out doing a small business, there was an accident and she even lost.

She thinks about it now, maybe Zhou Yuan was born to be a human being.

no!

If the third child doesn't marry him off immediately, she will definitely drive him out!

Mother Zhou heard her elder sister-in-law say that the two elders were coming, and hurried out of the house, thinking in her heart that the two elders seldom step into her house, and this time she came here because she heard gossip in the village.

That can't let the two old people misunderstand, her mother-in-law has always disliked her brother.

But she can't let her brother be reprimanded and wronged.

Mother Zhou rushed out of the room to greet her, "Father, mother, how come you two are free? Hurry in and sit down, the child

's father should be home soon." Make..."

"Father, mother, you came just in time, the Wei family invited a matchmaker to propose marriage, this time matchmaker Zhang is still in the house, and he has to wait for Yuan Yuan's father to return to the main business, you are old It's just right, so happy."

Before Mrs. Zhou could finish her words, Mother Zhou interrupted her with a smile.

Zhou's mother's words confused the two elders. Wei Jiazhen came to propose marriage, didn't he lie to them?

The aunt of the Zhou family was also stunned by the words of Zhou's mother.

"No, thank you sister-in-law for introducing, my family Yuanyuan can find a good marriage, thanks to sister-in-law, sister-in-law of this wedding candy should eat a few more!

" Knowing what expression to return, he didn't smile, "Brother and sister, you

're joking!" The two old men had doubts about whether Zhou's mother was telling lies to protect Zhou's brother, and went into the room and saw matchmaker Zhang, All doubts were dispelled now.

The matchmaker Zhang saw the two elders congratulating each other again, with good words, and praised the Wei family and the Zhou family again.

Zhou Wu's being on the side is even more unpleasant.

The two elders directly greeted them.

Zhou's father and Zhou Yuan's three elder brothers heard that the matchmaker came to propose marriage, and the field was only half-cultivated. They didn't care about the reclamation. They immediately put on their hoes and hurried to the house.

When Zhou's mother Dingqing saw it, she laughed angrily and wanted to be trained, but there were guests and the two elders were there, so they definitely couldn't be trained. Mrs. Zhou, who can teach people, immediately reprimanded

: "What's this like, don't go back to the house to change and come back!

"

Put on the latest clothes, then pack up and come out of the room.

Everyone is complete.

The matchmaker Zhang told the Wei family's willingness to marry the Zhou family and hired three taels of silver.

Generally, it is only two taels to marry a country brother, and the extra one or two is only due to the fact that the two elders of the Wei family think they are from the county town.

The Zhou family didn't care how much money they hired, and they were satisfied with three or two.

With the consent of Zhou's mother and Zhou's mother, Wei Cheng and Zhou Yuan's marriage was settled like this.

The two seniors in the seat were dissatisfied with the dowry offered by the Wei family, but the son's family agreed, and they could not intervene.

The eldest aunt of the Zhou family contemptuously pouted her lips, and hired silver in three or two, which was very shabby.

Looking at the second brother's family, I really don't know each other. Three or two hired silvers can smile happily without seeing their teeth. What about the people from the county seat? Weicheng was divided out by the Wei family, and he didn't get much at all. Even the house he lived in was very dilapidated. At that time, the second brother's family would regret it.

The aunt of the Zhou family has finally felt at ease since entering the door to the present!

The day of the appointment is three days later.

Sending off the matchmaker Zhang, the Zhou family was full of joy, showing their previous frown.

The family was beaming with joy, and the three who dared not go home were always on their guard.

Zhou Yuan's three sisters-in-law also each complained that the other party didn't keep the door open, and pushed the fault to the other party.

Fortunately, an aunt saw them congratulate them, and the three knew that the Wei family had come to propose marriage.

This time there was no more noise, they each snorted, turned their heads, turned around and hurried home with a smile.

After this time, the three were even more at odds with each other.

When the Wei family came to propose marriage, Zhou Yuan's three sisters-in-law all thought to themselves that the mother-in-law must be happy and should not trouble them.

When they went back to Mother Zhou, they didn't say anything, and they still smiled as before, but they didn't know that Mother Zhou had their own plans, so they all reserved it for the next time.

She really thinks she's a good-natured mother-in-law, works hard, doesn't teach them a lesson, and doesn't know what troubles will happen in the future.

"Auntie, is Yuan Yuan here?"

Zhou Qiu went to Zhou Muzi to come with him. Originally, he planned to comfort Zhou Yuan. Knowing that the Wei family came to propose marriage, they replaced the comfort with congratulations, and they were all happy for their friends.

"Xiaoqiu and Muzi, you come to see Zhou Yuan, he is in the room, you go in by yourself, and my aunt will bring you a bowl of sugar water later, stay tonight for a light meal and then go back."

Mother Zhou would be really happy. Wandering around here, wandering there, when acquaintances came to say congratulations, they warmly let people come in and drink a bowl of sugar water. Both sons and daughters-in-law were instructed to go to the kitchen to boil water and make sugar water, and Zhou father was instructed to go back to the room and take it. The rest of the candy bought in the city of Weiwei is distributed to grandchildren, grandchildren, grandchildren.

Zhou Yuan was slightly absent-minded towards the pastry box in the room, the joy in his eyes could not be hidden.

Friends Zhou Qiu and Zhou Muzi didn't notice when they came behind, but Zhou Qiu couldn't help laughing before Zhou Yuan turned around.

"Why are you here!" Zhou Yuan looked surprised.

"Yuanyuan, Muzi and I both congratulate you." Zhou Qiu said happily.

"Yuanyuan, we were worried before we came. Fortunately, when we heard at the door that the Wei family came to propose marriage, Qiuqiu and I were heartbroken. Now we are both happy for you." Zhou Qiu looked bad when he came to him He was startled, and after listening to Zhou Qiu's words, he was even more worried. Fortunately, the Wei family came to propose a marriage, and no rumors became cliché.

"What are you talking about?" Zhou Yuan laughed out loud.

Zhou Yuan still doesn't know the gossip outside.

"We're congratulating you!" the two of them shouted at the same time.

"..." The

three of them looked at each other and laughed at the same time.

Enough of laughing, holding each other together and saying the sweet words of my daughter and brother's family.

On the way, nephew Shi Shi also went in with four bowls of sugar water, and Zhou Yuan remembered the three boxes of cakes that Wei Cheng had given. She took out a box of white sugar cakes and a box of red bean crisps and let Shi Shi give it to Zhou's mother to share with her family, and another box of sweet-scented osmanthus. He shared the cake with his friends.

Zhou Qiu recognized the signboard of Baixiangzhai in the county seat. Her eldest brother also bought her a cake. It was the first time she had eaten such a delicious cake when she grew up.

"Yuanyuan, this is the most famous pastry shop in the county. The pastries from Baixiangzhai's family are not only delicious, but also not cheap. A small piece costs more than ten cents." Wei Cheng is really willing!

"It's so expensive!" Zhou Yuan exclaimed.

Zhou Muzi held a piece of cake in his hand, and when he heard Zhou Qiu's words, his mouth was still open, he, he didn't dare to eat it.

This, this is made of silver! ! !

"Well, my eldest brother bought it once before I knew

the price." Zhou Qiu was envious, "Yuan Yuan, Wei Cheng really cares about you, I bought such expensive cakes for you, I want to find one that is right for me. Such a good object."

Zhou Yuan lost his mind, he was surprised that the price of the cakes Wei Cheng bought was too expensive, but he couldn't help worrying that Wei Cheng would spend a lot of money to buy such expensive cakes, but it was more sweet in his heart. Zizi, sweeter than eating honey.

Zhou Yuan returned to his senses and showed a sweet smile, "Qiuqiu will definitely find someone who is caring for you." Zhou Qiu

widened his eyes and rushed in front of Zhou Yuan in surprise, "Yuan Yuan, your face is so rosy, when you smile, You are so beautiful! You are all glowing now, I am stunned, no wonder Wei Cheng likes you."

"Mmm, Yuan Yuan, you look good when you smile." Zhou Muzi didn't know how to describe it, he also I often see Yuan Yuan laughing, but this time, I feel different, what is the difference, he can't tell, just take a good look!

Zhou Yuan's sweet smile made the face that was originally blushing because of Wei Cheng's thoughtfulness even more pink and moving, and the expression on his face was soft and beautiful, like a breeze. , in good spirits.

If Wei Cheng was here, he would definitely stick to him physically and mentally. He was originally attracted by Zhou Yuan's bright eyes and soft temperament.

Zhou Yuan will be ignored, it is said that he is an ugly brother, one is related to his height, he is indeed much taller than the petite brother. Second, he doesn't pay attention to dressing up. Most of his walking in the village is related to work, and his work condition is basically old clothes and messy hair.

In addition, he walks under the sun every day, and his originally fair skin will also be slightly yellowish.

Recently, because he was in a bad mood at home, he was asked to stay at home more, and he seldom went out in the sun, and his yellowish skin returned to fairness.

Zhou Yuan's beauty is like a piece of rough jade, which can only be revealed in detail when one digs into it.

As for the cakes Zhou Yuan asked his nephew Shito to take out, Zhou's mother was stunned that her three daughters-in-law didn't get any crumbs on it. Zhou's mother gave them a look. The aroma, they can only be greedy in their hearts.

Father Zhou held the red bean cake, his tired and wrinkled face smiled even wider. He was full of energy and looked a few years younger.

It was the first time for Zhou Yuan's three brothers to eat such delicate cakes.

The juniors of the Zhou family are happy when they eat, and they want to show them off to their friends, but Mother Zhou ordered them not to go out. This cake is too eye-catching.

After the pastries were distributed, there were still a few pieces of red bean cakes left, which Zhou's mother planned to keep, and used it to entertain her in-laws when the Wei family came and hired them.

The Zhou family didn't have anything they could take out. Although the red bean cake was bought by Wei Cheng, she wouldn't think it was inappropriate to entertain the Wei family, at least there was something she could take out.

Three days later, the dowry was given, and Zhou's mother was busy notifying relatives to come.

Thinking of her mother's family, Zhou's mother frowned, but she still had someone come to inform her that her mother's house was far away. In the next town, she was notified that her mother's family would not come, and she was unsure.

The relatives of the Zhou family, the two elders knew that the second uncle of Zhou Yuan also lived in the next town, and they were too far away to inform them together. My uncle's house is in the same village, so just say it when you come to the door.

As for the uncles, uncles, and clan elders in the Zhou family, she couldn't afford it.

Furthermore, there are two elders of the Zhou family, the two elders, who have invited too much, they seem to be too public, and it is not good for her brother!

The relationship between people is twists and turns, Zhou mother knows how to measure!
