Chapter 137: Eight Trigrams
"Ouch, these pumpkin seeds are so full!"
In the living room, grandma and the others held these bought pumpkin seeds with a hint of surprise on their faces.
Sister-in-law asked, "Milk, are these pumpkin seeds used for frying and eating, or are they used for planting? However, with so many pumpkin seeds, you can't grow so many?"
The aunt said, "How about we grow and sell pumpkin seedlings?"
Pumpkin seeds cost one dollar a piece, but you have to buy more than five or six seeds. Pumpkin seedlings cost two yuan per plant.
Most farmers choose seedlings instead of planting them by themselves.
Sister-in-law's eyes lit up, and she said with a smile, "That's ok! This pound of seeds is as fast as two pounds, not to mention that thousands of seedlings can be raised. If they are all sold, they will earn at least a thousand dollars. ."
Grandma said, "Nennan bought this kind of seed, let's see how she wants to arrange it."
"Okay, come down after a while and ask her opinion!" Auntie said with a smile.
It's just a small thing.
After talking for a while, everyone changed the subject.
The Shi family doesn't like to talk about other people behind their backs, but it is inevitable to gossip.
When Gu Qingming came downstairs, he listened to some gossip in the village.
"Shi Bangliang has sold watermelons at a good price this year. In addition to the savings he has saved before, he has a wealth of money to marry a daughter-in-law, and is now seeing a girl."
"Shi Bangliang's son is also sincere. But, didn't his son go to work in another place? How do you see each other?"
"What's so difficult about this. Communication is convenient now. Leave a phone call, or make a call, or send a message, or add a micro-number to see if you can chat, then continue chatting, if not, continue chatting Let's see."
"Hey, now there are more men than women, it's really hard to marry a wife. Look, it seems that in every village, there are many men who are too old to marry a wife."
Hesitant times and the influence of policies have led to the phenomenon that China now has more men than women.
There's more of a weirdness.
rural,
More men than women! In big cities, there are many women left.
In the countryside, there are no girls who want to marry a wife. In big cities, those women are unwilling to marry.
"However, I heard that Bangliang's son didn't talk about an object? Why did Shi Bangliang show his son to look at him?"
"Listening to Shi Bangliang, the person his son talked to doesn't seem to be living with his son sincerely at all.
His son's salary is basically spent on that woman every month. Every month buys new clothes, jewelry, bags, and both of them use his son for their lives.
Therefore, Shi Bangliang didn't look down on that girl at all. That girl, looking for a boyfriend is to find someone to pay for her bills. Xiaohua can't save any money after a year. All that money was spent on that girl. "
The aunt said, "The most important thing is, that girl is not from our local area at all. If she runs away someday, where can I go to find her. Therefore, Shi Bangliang believes that Xiaohua's object is not reliable at all. "
"Xiaohua spends all the money on that girl, doesn't it feel inappropriate or wrong?" The second aunt asked suspiciously, "If the girl really wants to live with him, then the money she spends is her future. Don't you feel bad for the money? Later, when they get married, there will be more places to spend money."
"So, Shi Bangliang said that the girl was unreliable. But his son is a stubborn one, thinking that as a boyfriend, spending money for his girlfriend is just right.
His girlfriend loves beauty and beauty, and spending a little money is no big deal. Later, after they get married, she will definitely change.
No matter how Shi Bangliang did not agree to the persuasion, Xiaohua, the child, was unwilling to break up with the girl. Shi Bangliang didn't know what to do, so he figured out if he could make his son fall in love, so he kept looking for girls and blind dates with his son. "
"But...but this is not the way to go." Grandma frowned and said, "This will make the relationship between their father and son very rigid."
"Indeed. Xiaohua was very angry when he knew his father's plan. Then, leaving the girls' phone numbers, he called them one by one and directly told them that he already had a girlfriend. Shi Bangliang was so angry that he wanted to fly over and beat him!"
"It's easy to handle. Just let Xiaohua tell his girlfriend that they can get married." Gu Qingming said, "The girl doesn't look down on Xiaohua and will definitely not agree to get married."
Gu Qingming interrupted, and the third aunt asked curiously, "Mingming, how do you know that girl doesn't like Xiaohua?"
"..." Gu Qingming said, "It's very simple. People who love you will plan carefully for you. If you don't love you, even if Jinshan is held in front of her, she thinks it's too little. Xiaohua gives all the money. That girl has bought this and that, and she can't save money all year round, so she's not in a hurry. She's obviously not planning to marry."
Marrying in a rural area requires a dowry and three gold coins. These are all money.
Rural people, perhaps with a lifetime of savings, are worthy of marrying a daughter-in-law.
There are even families where the whole family borrows money to marry a daughter-in-law.
"If that girl really wants to marry Xiaohua, she will definitely persuade Xiaohua to prepare a dowry instead of spending his money indiscriminately."
"That's true. Shi Bangliang also persuaded his son, but Xiaohua just couldn't listen."
"Xiaohua, a child who has been obedient and sensible since he was a child, how could he be confused when it comes to marrying a daughter-in-law?"
"He's also dead-hearted. If he likes that girl, he recognizes that girl, and he is willing to spend all his money on that girl."
"Grandma, tell Uncle Shi Bangliang not to force his son." Gu Qingming said.
Grandma thought for a while and asked, "Nah, do you have any ideas?"
In fact, they don't want to worry about other people's affairs.
Manage it well, then manage it. If you don't manage it well, then you are really nosy, and you will be despised and blamed by others.
It's just the matter of Shi Xiaohua's girlfriend that really makes people anxious.
If someone else is in a relationship, even if they spend money, they won't spend so much.
When he fell in love, he spent all his wages working in the factory for a year, and he only took other people's hands.
We have been talking for two years, but we have never mentioned about marriage.
This is obviously a problem.
Gu Qingming smiled and said, "Didn't I say it? Just let Xiaohua directly mention the marriage to the girl. For the time being, let Uncle Bang Liang not be so tough. He only said that he agreed with their marriage, and he also talked about the bride price and so on. All marriage matters are according to the custom of the girl.
As long as Uncle Bang Liang did a good job, Shi Xiaohua naturally wouldn't be tough with his father. If the girl agreed, she would marry her, and she would not be wronged. If she did not agree, then Shi Xiaohua would be able to see clearly the character of the other party, so Shi Xiaohua naturally agreed to look at other girls. "
Grandma frowned, "But, this... is this useful?"
Grandpa thought for a while and said, "I think it's okay. If the girl agrees, Bang Liang can be considered to have married a daughter-in-law. If she doesn't agree, then the money that Shi Xiaohua has spent over the past two years will be wasted. "
"No, Grandpa, you can still get the money back." Gu Qingming said with a smile, "It depends on whether Shi Xiaohua wants to save face."
"His salary for two years is at least 30,000 to 40,000 yuan. With so much money, the girl doesn't want to marry her. Of course, she has to ask her to come back." The second aunt said, "How can there be such a cheap price in this world? I have spent money, but I don't want to marry, Shi Xiaohua is not raising a second child, a baby girl!"
"Then let me mention this to Shi Bangliang. As for whether he listens or not, then let them." Uncle also mixed in.
"Shi Bangqing seems to be back this morning. I heard that he brought a woman back with him."
"What? Who is that woman? Could it be that he was in a relationship outside?" The second aunt asked suspiciously.
"I heard that he was in a relationship. Not long ago, after her husband died, she hooked up with Shi Bangqing."
"Ha, what about his wife Chunjiao? He works outside, but Chunjiao takes care of everyone at home."
"Shi Bangqing came back this time to divorce Chunjiao. Giving Chunjiao 5,000 yuan is compensation."
Another scumbag!
After listening to Gu Qingming, he complained in his heart.
"Five thousand yuan? Does Shi Bangqing have a conscience? Give him children and take care of the family for so many years. He hasn't come back for many years, and as soon as he comes back, he will divorce! Now it's too much to want five thousand yuan to send people to Chunjiao. Right. What did Chunjiao say?"
"Chunjiao said that it's okay to get a divorce. She must be compensated with 50,000 yuan. 5,000 yuan will not work."
"50,000 yuan is still less. It should be at least 100,000 yuan!"
Gu Qingming, "..."
