Chapter 49
Good job.
Jiang Sui never thought that she and Song Sichen were on the same wavelength.
“You think so too?”
Jiang Sui gave Song Sichen a look and he understood what she meant.
He nodded: “What do you think?”
Jiang Sui finally agreed: “Let’s do it!”
Jiang Anping and Wang Chunhua usually set their sights on them.
It costs a lot of money to hold a wedding banquet nowadays, so of course the two of them have to think of a way to extort some more money from them to make them heartbroken and never dare to provoke them again.
–
The news that Song Sichen and Jiang Sui were going to have a wedding quickly spread throughout the village.
Village chief Yu even specially called several village cadres to discuss the matter seriously.
“It’s been a long time since our village has been so lively. Jiang Sui is the first female health worker in the village, which is a cause for celebration. Both she and Song Sichen have complicated backgrounds, so we need everyone’s help and effort for the wedding.”
The village director fully agreed with this matter.
“We heard about it yesterday, and everyone has been waiting for it. Every household has put in their best efforts. Although everyone is not well-off, they all contribute money and labor. Don’t worry, village chief. Since it is a happy event, we will definitely make it a success for them.”
After a brief discussion, everyone waited for Song Sichen and Jiang Sui to give a specific date.
Village Chief Yu and Director Wang had even discussed how many dishes would be on the banquet.
Aunt Wang and Old Lady Yuan were at the entrance of the village, having a lively discussion.
“For a wedding, new furniture is a must. They are both young people, and it is not easy to find a good carpenter. It just so happens that the dowry table I have here has not been used yet, so they can make do with it.”
Old Mrs. Yuan even took out her own dowry, so of course Aunt Wang was not stingy either.
“Now that you mention it, I remember that we just bought a set of chairs last month. Maybe they can even pair well with your table. Now that we have something to eat with, we won’t have to worry about anything else.”
When a couple gets married, even if the wedding is of the most ordinary specifications, it must have at least sixteen legs.
A bed takes up four legs, a large wardrobe takes up four legs, a table takes up four legs, and the rest are chairs.
However, chairs are usually made with four seats, and there are still no sofas.
“Lao Lu, it just so happens that you have time these two days to help me make a decent bed, using the best wood.”
Aunt Lu had already selected the wood.
Some of the money was not used up when Dani got married, and now it comes in handy.
No one felt bad about giving these things to Jiang Sui.
This family contributes a little, and that family joins in.
Beds, wardrobes, tables, chairs, benches, etc., everything is available.
Jiang Anping and Wang Chunhong hid in the yard, pretending not to hear anything, for fear that they would come looking for them!
But unfortunately, things don’t always go as planned.
Zhou Taohong came in from outside and opened the door.
A group of people outside looked in.
“Hey, Chunhong, are you two at home? We haven’t seen you these days, and we thought you two had gone far away. Your daughter is going to have a wedding soon. Although we have separated the family, we are still a family after all. What have you prepared?”
Aunt Wang had long disliked Jiang Anping and his wife.
It would be fine if they didn’t express their opinions under normal circumstances, but their own daughter is having a wedding and they two want to stay out of it. How could such a thing happen in this world?
Even if you don’t prepare a dowry, you should at least give something as a token of your appreciation.
Old Mrs. Yuan and Aunt Wang cooperated with each other tacitly.
“Well, if everyone just gets together, the furniture will be complete. You two, as parents, wouldn’t be unprepared, right?”
“That’s definitely impossible. They are probably secretly planning to do something big so that no one can expect it!”
Wang Chunhong’s expression was somewhat embarrassed.
Since she heard about this incident the day before yesterday, she has been staying at home, fearing that she would go out and run into someone asking her questions.
I had been holding it in for a few days, but I didn’t expect these people would be so bored that they would come to my doorstep to add fuel to the fire.
Li Xiuhua came out of the house to join in the fun.
“Sister-in-law, although you have separated the family, Xiaosui is now earning two salaries. If you treat your daughter better, she will treat you better in the future. Sooner or later, you and my brother will be unable to work. Why do you have to make things so awkward with the child?”
She moved the bench with a smile on her face.
People outside were waiting to watch the fun, and she just poured fuel on the fire.
Wang Chunhong hesitated for a long time and couldn’t say anything, and Jiang Anping was even more stingy.
He was about to curse when he heard Zhou Taohong talking again.
“What are you talking about? There are educated youth from the city in our village. They are all real city people. Big brother, you can’t let them laugh at you. Although we are poor, we have not missed any courtesy. Big brother, don’t you agree?”
Jiang Anping’s eyes rolled around, and Zhou Taohong reminded him.
Now that their biological daughter has returned, at least in name they have not yet recognized each other.
Everyone in the village thinks Jiang Sui is their biological daughter.
If Lin Wanyu knew that her daughter didn’t prepare a dowry for her marriage –
I’m afraid people will think that their family favors boys over girls!
Now the whole family’s hopes are on Lin Wanyu.
If you want to build a good relationship, the first step must be to play the emotional card!
In order to make Lin Wanyu look at him with a higher regard, Jiang Anping patted his chest with one hand, full of energy.
“Of course. No matter how much the child makes a fuss, it is the child’s business. If I, as a father, really get angry with the child, it will be a joke! When my daughter gets married, I will not only buy her a dowry, but also help her hold a grand wedding. I will never let anyone look down on her!”
Wang Chunhong looked at him with doubt.
In front of so many people, is he crazy?
Half of the family’s money had already been divided up by Jiang Sui.
She is not their biological daughter, so why should they bleed so much money?
What’s more, when Lin Wanyu gets married in the future, they will also have to prepare the same dowry.
He could have just ignored the matter, but now he has to pretend to be rich?
Wang Chunhong lowered her voice and tugged at Jiang Anping’s sleeve with one hand.
“His father, these people won’t care whether you are just being vain or not. If you are tough now, I don’t know how many people will point fingers at you and scold you if you can’t do it later.”
This village is only about this big.
Doesn’t he know how rude these people are?
Just a drop of spit from each of them could drown them.
Will they still live in this village at that time?
Wang Chunhong’s voice was not loud, but some people could hear it.
Li Xiuhua gloated over other people’s misfortune.
“Sister-in-law, you wouldn’t be reluctant to give up even this little bit, right? Although she took half of it when you split up the family property a few days ago, you can’t be so unwilling to give up even this little bit.”
Li Xiuhua’s words undoubtedly put her on the fire.
“Xiuhua, you can’t say that. Sheng’er will go to school and the family will need money everywhere…”
Jiang Anping couldn’t stand listening any longer. After all, it was just a woman’s view and short-sighted.
“Just do as I say. Why are there so many reasons?”
Wang Chunhong moved her lips and wanted to say something, but was stopped by Jiang Anping’s eyes.
“So, what are we going to prepare?”
Jiang Anping turned around and saw the bicycle that Jiang Sheng had bought less than two days ago.
