At the entrance of the Shigejie Post Office, Sun Shao 'an, who had just received the money, had mixed feelings. As the elder brother, he now wanted his younger brother to support the family. He was proud of his younger brother, but also disappointed in himself. Now, he had sent so much money for his marriage. He didn't know how much he had to borrow from the outside.
In the letter, Sun Shaoping told Sun Shao 'an that his position was not lower than the director of the county revolutionary committee, and his salary was also very high. He told him not to worry about money in the future. However, Sun Shao 'an, who had some social experience, did not believe it at all. He felt that this was just comforting himself. How could there be a seventeen or eighteen-year-old director of the county revolutionary committee? Sun Shao' an had never seen or heard of him.
He Xiulian and her father, He Yaozong, had already arrived at the Sun family. Sun Yuhou took out the betrothal gift money that he had prepared, but He Yaozong did not take a single cent. Although the Sun family was very poor, they were a kind family. He liked Sun Shao 'an as his son-in-law, and the key was that his daughter liked him too. This family was not a big deal. Moreover, he heard from his daughter that his son-in-law's younger brother was working in the police station. It was indeed a little surprising. It was not a loss for his daughter to marry into such a family.
At this time, He Xiulian, who was sitting on the edge of the Kang, was a little anxious. She had not seen Sun Shao 'an for two months. She did not know if Sun Shao' an missed her. Anyway, she missed this sweetheart every day. She missed him during the day and at night. Sometimes, she could not sleep.
Lan Xiang had not been in a good mood recently. Her eldest brother was getting married, but her second brother could not come back. This made her feel that this family was a little incomplete. When her second brother left, he promised to come back for the new year, but he did not keep his promise. However, the sensible Lan Xiang knew that she could not blame him for this. Who asked him to be busy with work? She just did not know if her second brother would have time to come home in the future. She was very worried, but Lan Xiang did not dare to show anything on her face. It would be bad if her new sister-in-law thought too much.
Sun Yuhou and his wife were in a particularly good mood these two days. Their eldest son was about to get married. This was a joyous occasion. Yesterday, they received a letter from their youngest son, saying that everything was fine in Beijing. He even sent more than 300 yuan home. Now that they had returned Jin Junhai's money, they could even hold a proper wedding for their eldest son. It had been many years since they had been so relaxed. Back then, in order to help Yuting get married, they had borrowed a river bank's worth of money. They had forgotten how many years it had taken to pay it back. How could they not be happy that their eldest son did not have to owe money after his marriage?
But now, He Yaozong insisted on not taking the betrothal gift money, which made Sun Yuhou a little embarrassed. He said,"In-law, why don't we wait for Shao 'an to come back and make a decision? We can't let Xiulian suffer, lest people talk about her when we go back…"
He Yaozong smiled and waved his hand." Since we're relatives, don't say such things. I said I didn't want it in the past. How can I still want it now?" I like this child, Shao 'an. I, He Yaozong, am willing to pay money to marry my daughter off. What else can others say? This matter is settled.”
Sun Shao 'an strolled back alone. He was going to get married in a few days, but he felt like he was going to attend his own funeral. He clearly knew that there would be no possibility between him and Runye, so there was nothing to regret. Fate was so unfair. Who asked him to be a farmer? However, the grievance and guilt in his heart could tear his chest apart.
Sun Shao 'an once again cast his gaze in the direction of the county town." Dear Runye, I'm getting married. Are you okay?"
…He couldn't think about it anymore. If he did, he would cry.
Tian Futang had been lying at home for the past two days, not wanting to move. His daughter had run away to the second son, Sun Yuhou, in the capital. He wanted to hang himself on Sun Yuhou's door. How could he bully someone like this? His eldest son did not seduce his daughter, but sent his second son here. He was not only peeing in his ancestor's grave, but he was also defecating. He wanted to anger him to death, but he could not go, nor could he let anyone know. Otherwise, his daughter's reputation would be ruined, and he, Tian Futang, would become the biggest joke of the entire Shige Festival. This damned woman, how could she not let him worry?
"Are you going to the Young Master's house tonight? Just now, Lan Xiang came to call her. Runye's mother looked at Tian Futang who had been lying in bed for two days and wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes. Her daughter had run so far away and there was no news. How could she be at ease? She didn't care about anything else as long as her daughter was safe. She wanted to go to Sun Yuhou's house to ask about it, but her husband said that if she dared to go, he would hang herself at home.
According to the local custom, before the wedding, they had to invite the villagers to help out for a meal. They also arranged the work allocation on the wedding day in advance.
" I'm not going. Just say that I'm sick," Tian Futang said weakly.
I can't go to Tian Fu Tang. I'm afraid I'll be angered to death if I go. Your son is having a big wedding, and my daughter was kidnapped by your second son. Are you going to see me make a fool of myself and show off your two sons?
Tian Futang recalled the political changes in Shuangshui Village in the past few months, which made him even angrier. Jin Junwu and Young Master Sun were in the same boat. He heard that Sun Yuting was so poor that he even reported to his brother when something happened. He had forgotten who the secretary of Shuangshui Village was. Sun Yuhou was nothing. He was not even a party member. Jin Junshan was also nothing. He might not show up at all, but he would definitely hide behind Tian Futang and watch him make a fool of himself. They were all waiting. As long as Tian Futang did not die, they would all wait. The world of Shuangshui Village could not change.
Sun Shao 'an was very surprised when he entered the door. Xiulian and He Yaozong had already arrived. Looking at this big-eyed girl, Sun Shao' an felt warm in his heart." You just arrived? Did the journey go smoothly?"
He Yaozong said,"It went smoothly. I took a ride from Willow Forest and drove all the way to the road below your house."”
Xiulian slipped down from the edge of the Kang and walked in front of Sun Shao 'an. She generously helped Sun Shao' an take off the bag on his shoulder. Her big eyes kept looking at Sun Shao 'an's face, making Sun Shao' an a little embarrassed.
Sun Yuhou knocked on the cigarette pot and said,"I asked you to buy something. Why did you return empty-handed?”
Sun Shaoping slapped his forehead." Ah, look at my memory. I'll go again!"”
"I'll go with you," Xiulian said quietly.”
Sun Shao 'an looked at the other people in the room and secretly nodded.
As soon as the two of them left the village, Xiulian pulled Sun Shao 'an and asked,""Did you miss me?"
Sun Shao 'an looked around and nodded.
"Don't nod. I want you to say it." The simple and honest Xiulian also knew how to act coquettishly.
Sun Shao 'an scratched his head and said," Yeah, I did."
Xiulian quickly kissed Sun Shao 'an on the cheek and said with a red face,""I missed you too!"
Sun Shao 'an was instantly overwhelmed by the girl's enthusiasm. Yes, this voluptuous girl was the one that suited him. The grass would always grow on the other side of the mountain. As a farmer, he should be content to have a wife who doted on him so much. He shouldn't have thought about it before. It was Sun Shao' an's blessing that she could become his wife. Goodbye, Runye. I hope you can find someone who loves you too.
Sun Shao 'an didn't go to Shigejie. He brought Xiulian to Mi Town. The things here were more complete than Shigejie. The last time they came here to pull out clothes, because of Xiulian's insistence, he pulled out a short sleeve shirt for her. But today, he wanted to pull out more clothes for Xiulian. He heard from Shaoping that foreign women all wore wedding dresses, and the brides of the Chinese Dynasty all wore red wedding dresses.
"This scarf is bright in color. Why don't you try it on?”Sun Shao 'an pointed at a red scarf.
"I don't want to!" Xiulian turned her head.
Sun Shao 'an smiled and said," I want to give you a red dress today. This scarf is the same color."”
Xiulian said," I've prepared all the red clothes. I'll give you some. You don't even have a piece of clothes without patches.”
Since he already had red clothes, Sun Shao 'an felt that there was no need to buy more. He was only getting married once in his life, so he couldn't be too shabby."I bought this scarf. It matches your clothes perfectly. I'll put it on. After all, we have to wear new clothes for our wedding.”
Xiulian nodded happily. Only when the person she loved wore the same new clothes as her could she feel that the wedding was perfect.
The money that Sun Shaoping sent back was indeed enough for Sun Shao 'an to be " extravagant." He had pulled out a whole set of high-quality cotton cloth, which was also the best clothes that Sun Shao' an had ever worn since he was born.
After buying these, Sun Shao 'an went to buy a few cigarettes, a dozen bottles of wine, and some meat cooking ingredients. After thinking about it, he went to buy a few pounds of tea leaves, fruit candy, and some melon seeds and peanuts.
Facing the glass of the supply and marketing cooperative, Sun Shao 'an wondered if he wanted to get a haircut. Forget about Haimin's craftsmanship. Wearing a new set of clothes with a head that looked like it had been chewed by a dog really didn't look good. He had to go to Hu Delu's Barbershop and get a haircut like Liu Genmin's. It would make him look more energetic.
