The real daughter is really not a human being

Chapter 135 Unmoved

"Come and take a look, it's great to have a look! Aunt, you've come back at the right time. My daughter Laiyin is getting married. Let's go to my house for a wedding drink." Zhang Cuilan took the opportunity to invite.

"Laiyin, your little girl?"

"That's right!"

"You've grown up so fast, and you're getting married. Which family are you going to marry?"

Sun started talking to Zhang Cuilan directly and asked about Qiao Laiyin's marriage.

Qiao Laiyin was sixteen years old this year, and was engaged to the Zhao family in the east of the next village. The Zhao family was in business, and it was said that they made a lot of money. They wanted to marry a literate daughter-in-law for their son, and thus they fell in love with the children of the Qiao family.

When it comes to recognizing words, all the children in the Qiao family, both boys and girls, can recognize words. Although they have not read much and have never studied in a formal school, they all learned some when Qiao Xun was in school.

Even though Qiao Laiyin only knew a hundred words, she was already much better than other girls in the village who could not read a single word.

This good marriage was also thanks to Sun, so Zhang Cuilan invited her to the wedding for a drink.

When a girl in the village got married, those who were familiar with the bride would go to see her, let alone a girl from the same clan. Naturally, Sun agreed.

After seeing Zhang Cuilan off, Sun prepared to find some gifts to send over.

But then I thought, isn't she dead? Why is she getting married in the underworld? I always feel like something is wrong.

Never mind, just pretend she's alive.

Sun searched the house but couldn't find any suitable gift.

There are not so many rules for gift giving when country people get married. They can give daily necessities, snacks, and even a piece of meat. There is no particular requirement for the gift money.

But I came back in a hurry and there is nothing in the house, not even food for myself. How can I give food to others?

There were other slightly more valuable things, but in Sun's opinion, they were all old things and it was not appropriate to give them away.

Sun rubbed her head in annoyance, and took out her purse from her bag, ready to take out some silver as a gift.

In addition, everything you need to live here for the next few days must be prepared.

Don't rush to buy food and other things. Ask your neighbors next door to borrow some. You can get through today and go into the city tomorrow.

There are also elders in my hometown. I haven't seen them for a long time, and I haven't seen them during the Chinese New Year. Now that I'm back, I have to bring some things to visit them.

Once she got busy, Sun forgot all the sad things and just treated it as if she had really returned, and she was happily busy.

Yaoguang stayed by her side and occasionally lent a hand to Sun.

It was not until the evening that Zhang Cuilan sent someone to call her again. Only then did Sun take the change in her purse and go out with Yaoguang.

Zhang Cuilan's home is just down the hill from Qiao's home, just two turns away.

At the moment, the family is having a wedding banquet, and all the guests are the bride's family relatives, as well as some neighbors.

As soon as Sun appeared, she immediately became the center of attention, and all the acquaintances around her surrounded her and asked her all kinds of questions.

After all, the Sun family was the only one in their village who had ever passed the imperial examination. Not to mention that the Sun family had even been to the capital...

So everyone asked Sun about what they had seen and heard in the capital.

Sun picked out some of the things she knew and said, "The gate of the capital city is very high, and bigger than the houses in the county. Walking inside, there is a row of houses neatly arranged..."

Everyone listened with their ears pricked up, as if they were there too.

"Aunt Sun, have you ever seen the emperor?" someone asked curiously.

"How can we meet the emperor whenever we want? I heard that the emperor lives in the palace!" Someone responded immediately.

Sun naturally told the truth that she had not seen the emperor. Then she mentioned the expenses in the capital, how much it cost to rent a yard, how much it cost to buy rice and oil, and everyone sighed. Only a wealthy family could go to the capital.

"Mom, whose is this? It looks so majestic?" A young man asked the woman next to him at the next table.

They are from the groom's side. They brought some things here today and are accompanying the bride according to the rules of the groom's side.

"I'll go ask Aunt Zhang."

After a while of asking, the two learned about Sun's identity. She was a remarkable old lady, with a grandson who was a juren and had been to the capital. More importantly, her family was rich!

The young man's eyes lit up immediately after hearing this!

"I was wondering why my cousin arranged a marriage for my second brother with a village girl. It turns out he has a very important relative!" The young man looked at Sun's back with increasing passion, and then he turned his gaze to Yaoguang.

Judging from the way they were dressed, they definitely had a lot of spare money at home.

So during the meal, the young man had been secretly observing Sun, hoping to take the opportunity to approach her and strike up a conversation with her.

Just like that, I saw Sun handing a gift money to Zhang Cuilan. Seeing Zhang Cuilan's happy face, it seemed like it was a lot of money!

The Qiao family is really a fat sheep!

Because she had been in the capital for a long time, Sun had more money to spend and was more generous. With the money Yaoguang gave her and the money Sun earned from selling vegetables, it was not an exaggeration to say that she was the richest person in the whole village.

Of course, the more direct reason was that when Sun packed his luggage, he only took banknotes and silver, not any copper coins, and he didn't have anything useful on hand.

She had no choice but to pick out a piece of silver and give it as a gift. Besides being a gift, it could also be considered as a dowry for a girl from the same clan, a little token of her appreciation.

After the wedding banquet, Sun brought Yaoguang back. Zhang Cuilan warmly sent her to the door of her house and even invited Sun to come over for another meal the next day.

But Sun had something to do the next day, so she refused.

Zhang Cuilan felt regretful but unwilling to give up. "Aunt, come and take a look when you are free. If you are not free, you can ask Yaoguang to come and take a look! Children just love to join in the fun."

Yaoguang, who had been silent for a long time, glanced at Zhang Cuilan without saying anything.

Seeing Yaoguang unmoved, Zhang Cuilan could only give up.

What Sun was talking about was taking Yaoguang into the town to buy things.

Since I'm going to stay at home for some time, I have to buy some things, including the New Year gifts.

Sun woke up Yaoguang early in the morning and drove the ox cart with her to the town to buy things.

Sun bought a lot of cloth, salt, and freshly cut meat because he had enough money in his pocket.

It took the whole morning to buy so much that the ox cart was filled up and then we pulled it back.

As luck would have it, we ran into a wedding procession.

The bride also rode in a bullock cart.

There is no such thing as wearing a red veil at weddings in the village. Many people cannot afford a wedding dress with their entire fortune, so most people just wear new clothes and go home with the groom.

There are only a few people like Qiao Laiyin who can ride in a ox cart.

Many of the people who were sending off the bride were from the village, and when Sun saw them, she greeted her.
