The next day, Luo Fei woke up and didn't see Roger, thinking that Roger got up early in the morning and went to open the field. After asking, I found out that Luo Ji went to town with Xi Yanqing.
Luo Fei was so anxious that he almost spilled the porridge bowl: "Why didn't you call me?! I want to go too."
He has been here for so many days and has not been to the town. His impressions of the town are all from old memories. He also wanted to go and see, especially the cloth villages and embroidery workshops, to see what level they had developed.
"Who knew you were going? Besides, they went out when they were ugly, so can you get up so early?" Li Yuehua tapped Luo Fei's head with chopsticks, "Let's drink your porridge quickly! Get up early!"
"What are they doing, mother? Are they shopping?"
"Well, Mr. Xi said he was buying things, but I didn't ask. I guessed that he was going to buy some things to be dowry."
"Isn't the dowry already given?"
"No. You stupid boy, what you gave earlier was a dowry, not a dowry. It's a different matter. After the dowry is over, even if the matter between you and him is completely settled, then the whole village will know about it. "Li Yuehua said, "Although my family doesn't talk so much, my mother can't wrong you, she has to have what she should have."
"Does he know what to buy?" Dowry, love can't just be money!
"Well, I should know. Xiaozi Xi is a careful person and can't do anything wrong. Besides, I don't know if there is still your big brother." Li Yuehua said while looking at Luo Tian, "The other mother can tell you something It's the second treasure. It's the day you get married. After discussing it with your father, it was decided that it will be the sixth day of next month."
"The sixth day of next month?!" Luo Fei was stunned for a while, "Isn't this too urgent?! It's still a month away. I haven't been at home enough yet." It should be twenty-five today. In other words, there are only eleven days left for him and Xi Yanqing to get married? !
Anyway, let him see that all the vegetables in Xiyan Qing's seeds have grown, so he won't let him go when he is hungry!
Li Yuehua immediately retracted her smile: "You child, where did you get so many troubles? When did your mother and father hurt you? The day you choose will definitely be the best day. Other days are either to beat you or to beat Xiaoxi, you Say which one do you ask your mother to choose?!"
Rofe was still a little unhappy. Originally yesterday, he believed that Xi Yanqing could get it done with a few words, but he didn't get it!
Depend on! It's so unreliable!
Luo Fei wanted to fight for a few more days, but when he turned around and saw Luo Tian glaring at him, he immediately persuaded.
A good man does not suffer from immediate losses! Get married, get married!
"Er Bao, don't worry, Xi Xiaozi is a good guy. Before he went to town today, he said that he wanted to see more about the furniture sold in the town. If he wanted to make it more beautiful for you, that's not what he wanted. Are you interested in you? Besides, you are eighteen years old, and you are not too young. Can you still stay with your parents? Listen to your mother, get married sooner, and spread branches and leaves for the Xi family sooner. Family, it's not easy to be alone, I definitely hope the family can be more lively."
"Haha." It's still spreading its branches and leaves, and it's almost the same as drawing a Chu, Han, and Han world.
Luo Fei drank the porridge, and asked again after a while, "Mother, what are you going to give as a betrothal gift?"
Li Yuehua said: "It also depends on the conditions. At least you have to carry a fish, buy two chickens, buy two catties of pork and then make two pots of bars? This is the most basic. If it is better, add some tea and wedding cakes. , and jujubes, peanuts, longan, melon seeds, sugar, etc., a lot, you forgot those things that your mother prepared at your sister-in-law's house when your eldest brother got married?"
Luo Fei really forgot. But listening to what Li Yuehua said, his saliva was about to drop. Before he came here, he had to eat at least two kinds of fruit every day, and he had never seen any fruit since he came here.
At this time, I hope that Xi Yanqing can buy more food and come back.
Xi Yanqing arrived in town a while ago. He had already told Roger on the way that he wanted to buy a cow as a dowry, lest Luo Fei always be envious of others having cows at home. But at this moment, this cow really doesn't mean that you can buy it.
First of all, buying a cow is a big deal. A cow bought to work at home must be docile. Some cows are very temperamental, and even the owner will support them, and they will not be raised at all. Some cows may be ill, and they cannot be seen for a while and must be observed.
When Xi Yanqing went out, he took all the money with him, but he didn't expect to go to the bull market, and there was no suitable one. There is a bull that looks pretty good. It is one and a half years old. It is fat and strong and looks very healthy. However, it is a flower, and the price is a bit high.
He is eager to buy cattle, but he can't be taken advantage of!
Luo Ji also felt that it was expensive, so he took Xi Yanqing and did not let him buy it.
Xi Yanqing also wanted to look at other things, but this town is not big, there is only one bull market, and there is no other place to buy it.
"If you really want to buy it to make Erbao happy, I'll take you to Han Yang later." Seeing that Xi Yanqing was still not giving up, Luo Ji said, "Han Yang, do you remember? His second uncle has sold cattle for a few years, and he can understand this. When the time comes, let him help us to find out if there is anyone who sells cattle in the nearby villages. Let’s find some acquaintances, and we won’t be fooled by cheap ones. The cattle dealers in the bull market are not sure what they say. I heard the second uncle of the Han family say before that some black-hearted dealers gave medicine to sick cows. It's over."
"That's very bad. Well, let's not buy cattle today. But you must help me ask Ji Ge." Xi Yanqing said, "I haven't been at home for these years, so I let Erbao I have suffered a lot of grievances, and I don't want to make him unhappy by being such a kiss in my life."
"Understood, you stupid boy, you are more infatuated than me! Erbao has accumulated eight lifetimes of blessings when he met you." Luo Ji patted Xi Yanqing on the shoulder, "Let's go, look at what else there is. Need to buy it."
"I want to buy more, I'm afraid we can't move."
"Don't worry, what about the two of us, we can't take back what we bought?" Roger felt that it would be fine even if he bought those dowry gifts.
Xi Yanqing smiled and said nothing. Originally, according to his idea, he would go out early in the morning before dawn, and the sooner he got to town, the better. After that, look at the cows first. It is best to buy the cows at noon. In this case, if you buy other things, you can also let the cows go back when you go home. But now the cattle are not bought.
It seems that you can only buy things that are light and easy to carry.
Xi Yanqing bought tea, wedding cakes, dates, peanuts, longan, melon seeds and so on. Then the two brothers found a place to eat some dry food, and then went to the tea house owner to buy two bowls of hot tea. After taking a bite, Xi Yanqing went to buy fish, meat, and a pair of chickens - according to Luo Ji, buy this thing How much depends on the number of living parents of both parties. If both parents have both parents, they should buy two pairs, and if they don't have one, they should buy one less.
In the end, Xi Yanqing bought two chickens, two fish, six jars of wine, and six catties of pork. Plus those bits and pieces of nuts, candy, etc., it filled four baskets! Rao is that Luo Ji has strength, and now he can't help but feel a little worried about how to bring these back.
What Xi Yanqing said to Luo Fei at the time was to find people who have a common topic to live with, but when he did things, he did it according to the standard of being married. As for the reason, perhaps only he himself knew it.
"It should be almost right now?" Roger is now slung over his shoulders, hung around his neck, carried in his hands, and tied around his waist. Now he doesn't look like a person at all, but rather like a shelf.
"I should buy some more fabrics and cotton. I don't have any new quilts." Xi Yanqing said. Although he has never been married in two lifetimes, he still knows that he wants to make a new quilt when he gets married.
"Let's talk about the quilt tomorrow. We can't hold it anymore." It takes one person for the wine and meat alone. "Besides the cotton and fabric, we don't know how much to buy. And it's a fish and a fish. For meat, it's not good if a handful of ingredients are smoked with a fishy smell."
"That's right, then I'll let Erbao measure the size when I go back, and I'll bring him along and let him choose the style he likes. But there's something I still want to buy. Ji Ge, wait for me here, come back soon. !" Xi Yanqing said that the person had already run away, and when he came back after a while, there was a small cloth bag in his arms.
"What did you buy again?" Roger asked curiously.
"It's for Erbao, but I can't tell you this." Xi Yanqing put the things away carefully, and put the wine jar tied with hemp rope on his shoulders again.
The two brothers rushed back with their things, and it was almost dark when they got home.
Since the dowry was to be sent from the Xi family to the Luo family, and it was at dawn, all the things Luo Ji helped Xiyan clear to the Xi family. There is only one thing, Xi Yanqing gave it to Luo Ji and asked him to take it back, which was the cloth bag he bought last. I don't know what was in the cloth bag, but Roger only found that it was not heavy at all when he took it.
"Is it enough to give Erbao directly?" Luo Ji asked before leaving.
"Well, just give it to him." Xi Yanqing said, "You have worked hard for you today, brother."
"You called me 'big brother', what is this? Go to rest early."
"Come, don't forget about the cow."
"Don't worry." Roji waved his hand, seeing that it was not too late, he went home after going to Han's house.
"Father! Mother! I'm back!" Roger shouted from outside the door.
"Yo, are you back?" Li Yuehua hurriedly walked out, "Are you exhausted? Have you eaten yet?"
"Eat some, where's my dad?"
"Don't mention it, your father is comforting the Four Treasures."
"What's wrong with the Four Treasures?" Luo Ji just finished asking when he heard his sister's unrestrained laughter, "Hahahahahahahaha!
"Ouch!" There was a swill bucket next to Luo Yi. He vomited for a long time and looked at Luo Ru with tears in his eyes, "Sister, do you have any sympathy!"
"What's the matter?" Roger asked.
"Cough, it's nothing." Luo Fei struggled to hold back a smile, "It's... It was the Four Treasures who secretly ate the soy sauce dipping cake on a porcelain plate that Xi Yanqing gave me."
"The funniest thing is that the second brother said that the porcelain plate was his special toilet chip, hahahahahahaha! Four Treasures actually used the second brother's scraped shit as a plate, and poured soy sauce into it. Oh my Mom, my stomach hurts from laughing, hahahahahahahahaha!"
"Sister! Believe it or not, I'm really angry!" Luo Yi was almost out of anger, she was already depressed, and she kept laughing at him!
"Well, this really can only be blamed on you Four Treasures, who told you not to ask your second brother well in advance." Luo Ji said and wrapped the cloth to Luo Fei, "Second Treasure, this is Xi Di asked to bring to you. Yes. I bought it for you on purpose, I don't want to see him let it go, take a look at what it is."
"What?" Luo Fei was a little curious. Before opening it, he thought it was food, but unexpectedly, he saw rows of needles and threads neatly placed inside. The thread is colorful, not only the amount is large, but also the touch is very good.
He has received a lot of gifts since he was a child, but Luo Fei vaguely felt that he had never liked it so much before!
