Era: Start as a buyer

"What's going on? You can't tell my wife yet."

"Didn't you promise to help me find a wife last time? I found one, but something went wrong. The bride price was too much."

"How much do you want as a bride price? How much is it? Don't worry, I will help you pay it."

"Eighteen yuan~!"

"What, are you kidding? How can anyone ask for such a high gift? Whose daughter is made of gold?"

"Nariko, during the rice harvest this time, my family's rice was sold to purchase grain. I have some money. You can give me ten yuan~~ and you can lend me ten yuan. Can you~"

"Er Gouzi, this is not a matter of money. I said last time that I would help you find a wife. The main reason is that the bride price is too high. No one in the city dares to be so cruel. This is completely Selling my daughter."

"Actually, the main reason is that my cousin didn't agree with the marriage, so she deliberately made things difficult for me."

"No, what does your marriage relationship have to do with your cousin's aunt? Are you still marrying your cousin's aunt's daughter? Ergouzi, you are marrying your cousin?"

"She's not a cousin, she's my cousin's daughter. My cousin agreed, but my cousin has an objection."

"Then your cousin agreed, no~~, according to what you are saying now, you must have agreed. The eighteen-dollar gift. You are not a bad girl. Many women in Eight-dollar Town will let you choose. Bar."

"I like her to call me cousin, and I feel like I'm not very good at talking when I'm with women. If I get to know my cousin better, I can talk more freely. My cousin also agreed, and she said she didn't dare to talk to her either. Talking to a man you know. Isn’t this just right for us?”

This seems to make sense. People these days are shy. Unmarried men and women are somewhat shy when interacting with people of the same age. If you understand this, it seems that you can really relax a lot.

As far as Luo Cheng and Zhao Qian came into contact, even though they fell in love on the first day, there were prerequisites. The matchmakers came to the door and the marriage was settled. And even then, Luo Cheng's heartbeat was actually very fast that day. For another person, if the marriage had not been agreed and they were just in contact and chatting, Luo Cheng would not dare to mess around.

After chatting with Ergouzi for a while, I found out how the eighteen yuan gift money came from. There are still many marriages between cousins ​​in rural areas these days, but this is not encouraged, especially between cousins.

Cousins, that is, the daughters of Er Gouzi’s biological brother and younger brother whose mother died giving birth to him. But the cousin, that is Ergouziniang's cousin, heard that there are some things where cousins ​​get married.

Speaking of cousins, Luo Cheng also thought about his cousins, none of them were beautiful. But this matter, sleeping on the same bed with my cousin is a bit exciting, but my cousin is not beautiful, so I don’t have that idea.

"I paid eighteen yuan for you. Now I'll give you the money, but you have to tell me how you feel after you get married and go to bed with your cousin."

"Then why didn't you tell me how it felt to have sex with your sister-in-law?"

Forget it, let’s not share this experience with each other. But even though he is a good brother, if he needs money to save his life, he will give it if he gives it. When it comes to his wife, let alone the brother who plays well, there are only a few brothers in the countryside these days who are willing to pay so much money.

So Luo Cheng was not polite and asked Ergouzi to help him. He is now working as a buyer in the urban area. He said that people in the urban area like to eat eels, loaches and turtles. The fields will be plowed soon, and he has to Help catch this.

Now they earn work points, which means they will allocate some money to buy daily necessities after the grain is harvested. At most, I didn’t earn any work points, and Luo Cheng gave me the money to buy daily necessities.

Catching eels, loaches, turtles, such a trivial matter, he would rather catch it for fun than work. He used to hate farming when he had land at home, but now he has to follow the team leader in the village to open up wasteland. He really doesn't want to do it, but his land is gone, and if he doesn't do it, he will have no livelihood.

Luo Cheng had money in his pocket. After giving the money, he asked if there was any gift money and when Ergouzi would marry his cousin. Er Gouzi chuckled. Now that the family is out of trouble, he doesn't plan to hold a banquet or engage in any drama about getting married. As long as his cousin's aunt accepted the gift money, Er Gouzi planned to pick up his cousin the next day.

If, after receiving the money, his cousin continued to complain, he would use a sack to trap his cousin back. After all the bride price was collected, the cousin became his. He forced her to sleep with her, and she was on his side. He was not afraid of the police when they came.

After hearing what Er Gouzi said, Luo Cheng had to admire him. From this point of view, maybe the gift money will be sent over tomorrow. As long as his cousin and aunt receive the money, this guy will definitely go there to collect it the next day. Based on this calculation, Ergouzi will definitely sleep with his cousin in the next two or three days.

He can no longer talk nonsense with Ergouzi. If it is after noon and everyone goes to work in the fields in the afternoon, it will be troublesome for him to find someone. If you want to chat, you can continue talking about his cousin when you come to his house for dinner in the evening.

Luo Cheng told Er Gouzi directly that he was leaving, and then left with his wife.

On the way to her sister's house, Zhao Qian pulled Luo Cheng and asked what she had just said to Er Gouzi and why she wanted to avoid her.

Luo Cheng didn't hide anything, saying that Er Gouzi wanted to get married and asked him for some money. With Zhao Qian around, it was difficult for him to speak. But Luo Cheng didn't tell Zhao Qian that he gave Ergouzi eighteen yuan. Women don't need to know so much about men's affairs.

It didn't take long for the eldest sister's house to arrive. Luo Lan was happy to see her younger brother attending work, wearing work clothes and bringing his sister-in-law to see her. But there was nothing to entertain people at home, so they all ate in the canteen, and in these hot days, rural people also drank raw water. Apart from cold water, I really can’t get anything out of it.

The bag was carried by Zhao Qian, who was very careful to avoid breaking the eggs along the way. Luo Cheng asked Zhao Qian to take out a bag of peanuts and four eggs and give them to the eldest sister. After asking about her brother-in-law, it seems that her brother-in-law is always a topic of conversation here.

Now everyone earns work points and eats in the canteen, but the brother-in-law can't walk. I'm afraid life is not as convenient as before, at least when it comes to eating.

Speaking of this brother-in-law, Luo Lan also looked helpless. It used to be my family's land, and I usually left one person at home to take care of the housework, take care of the children, and take care of my brother-in-law. Others who work in the fields should at most work more.

But now work points are recorded. If you work alone for a day, you will only be credited with so many points. Everyone who can work is gone. Even Luo Lan took her two children to work in the fields. There were many women taking their children to the fields.

When it comes to eating, the cafeteria also knows about her family's situation and allows her family to bring back a bowl of rice. But just like that, her brother-in-law started making trouble again recently, saying that he was left alone in the house every day, with no one to call out for anything. The weather was so hot that it was difficult to turn over.

Recently, the family is discussing whether to let her mother-in-law go to the team to earn work points and just take care of her at home.

Hey, my sister's in-laws are still here, and they can still take care of her brother-in-law. If her in-laws pass away in the future, my sister and brother-in-law can't continue to support her brother-in-law for the rest of their lives.

It's not that Luo Cheng is evil, but he really hopes that something will happen to my sister's brother-in-law and nothing will happen. Even though he is paralyzed, he still has a bad temper, and he often gets angry easily when serving that guy.

Unfortunately, the drought that is coming in more than half a year will not have much impact on Jiang Province in the first year. If he had to escape from the famine in the northern region, this brother-in-law would most likely not survive more than a year.
