Chapter 18: Getting married

Xie Jiu glanced at Wei Chi, pursed his lips and smiled, and no longer continued to get involved in this topic. Wei Chi secretly wiped his cold sweat, changed the topic, and said, "It turns out that they have been under the war of resistance for more than a year. Erhu's silly boy hid so hard. I didn't even notice it when I went to Yongzhou with me. I was ashamed."

Xie Jiu said: "If Qiu Lie hadn't happened to find out, I'm afraid neither of us would have noticed it. It seems that there are still loopholes in the management system at home."

Seeing Xie Jiu's thoughtful look, Wei Chi smiled and said, "Just take these things slowly. This is a home, not a company, or something. It's not a good idea to make everyone feel at stake. It always takes some time to run a harmonious and united home that trusts and trusts each other."

Xie Jiu smiled, feeling relieved, and turned to the topic: "How to solve this problem? Do we need to come forward to help him propose marriage?"

Wei Chi said, "Don't be busy for now. Erhu must only know how to help others work. I guess he will blush and feel embarrassed after saying a few more words. I don't know what the other woman means. In order to avoid being overwhelmed by others, I'd better ask clearly. We may scare others when we come forward at the beginning, so it's better to ask someone else to come forward. After we know what the woman meant and are willing, our family will do it more. Erhu's stupid boy has saved our lives."

Xie Jiu nodded with a smile: "Okay. Uncle Cheng is calm and experienced. Let's talk about it after asking him for his opinion."

The couple agreed to ask Zhao to call Uncle Cheng. Xie Jiu said the meaning to Uncle Cheng. Uncle Cheng said, "Madam, it is difficult for men to come forward in this kind of thing. It is more convenient for women to talk to women's houses. I still have my mother on the little widow's head. It's better to find a woman to ask about her intentions. If it's interesting, our family will just come forward again."

Mrs. Liu next to her said, "Madam, why not ask me about this? I often walk around the village, and I know Yun Niang too."

Xie Jiu said: "Okay, let Mrs. Liu ask, don't use power to suppress others, they have to voluntarily."

"Don't worry, ma'am, I can save it."

The woman was Liu's wife, and Wei Chi asked the man Erhu. Before Erhu came back, Wei Chi asked Xia Sheng to pass a message to him. After he came back, he came to see him, and then took Dahu and a small tricycle to Zhou's house with him.

As early as when he made the first tricycle, Wei Chi expected that it might be warmly welcomed by the children, so he asked Carpenter Zhou to drive out one first, so he asked Carpenter Zhou to continue to do it. Now, Carpenter Zhou has also upgraded and no longer made it alone. He has recruited two apprentices, both of whom are young boys of thirteen or fourteen years old. Following him, he started from the basics and asked Carpenter Zhou to learn real skills and make the learning first.

"Master, you are here. Four cars have been made, all of them are made according to your requirements. Look."

As soon as Wei Chi entered, Carpenter Zhou greeted him enthusiastically. After a long time of contact, Carpenter Zhou understood that Wei Chi was just an easy-going person. He didn't like to be arrogant and was really a good person. He gradually became restrained. However, respect and politeness were still the same as before. From the perspective of Carpenter Zhou's simple attitude, the problem of attitude also represents his respect and gratitude to Wei Chi. Wei Chi was too deliberate and seemed hypocritical. It would be better to let it go.

"You're welcome, come and see if this car can be repaired? As soon as I took it that day, I was broken by a group of young boys."

Carpenter Zhou laughed and said, "All boys are like this. If you take things in your hands, few of them will last for a long time."

Carpenter Zhou looked carefully and found that fortunately, it was not a big problem. He changed the right pedal and retouched it, and it was the same as the new one. When Xiao Yizi saw it, he should be happy.

When Carpenter Zhou was repairing, Wei Chi sat under the jujube tree outside waiting. Dahu accompanied him and sat aside. Wei Chi smiled and said, "Dahu, you have to work hard. Two tigers have a crush on them. Where are you? You are the eldest brother, and you can't lose to Erhu in this regard."

Dahu smiled honestly and said, "Master, Erhu and I have been in the mountains since we were young, and we don't know much about etiquette. If Erhu finds his wife first, it doesn't matter if he gets married first. I'm not in a hurry."

Wei Chi smiled and said, "Don't worry, you won't be left behind. I asked the matchmaker to help you pay attention to where there is a daughter to marry nearby. You should also pay attention. Just say that if you see someone who is in harmony, I will help you talk about the matchmaking."

Dahu smiled foolishly, scratched his head, and nodded quickly. Not to mention that Wei Chi was working with Carpenter Zhou here, Liu Sao was also impatient on Yun Niang's side, so she agreed to Xie Jiu. She ran to Yun Niang's house that day and asked Yun Niang what her mother meant.

When Mrs. Liu went there, Erhu had just returned. Only Yun Niang and her mother were at home. Mrs. Liu knocked on the door and sat down. She looked at Yun Niang with a smile. She looked at her with a pretty face. She looked very painful, with clear eyes and bright hands and feet. She also raised pigs and chickens at home, all of which were fed from the Wei Mansion. Although the mother and son lived a poor life, they were happy and would not be hungry. There were only two women in the family, and one of them was an old woman who could only help feed the pigs and chickens. For Yun Niang, she could only describe it as the word "capable". Erhu fell in love with a good girl.

Yun Niang’s family’s surname is Guan.

Mrs. Liu smiled and said, "Sister-in-law Guan, I am a straightforward person. Let me just say it. Erhu from our Wei Mansion is the silly boy who often comes to help Yun Niang work. I don't know if Yun Niang looks down on him, nor do I know what sister-in-law's requirements for choosing a son-in-law. Our wife said that if your family is interested, she will come forward to talk to Erhu in person. The wife said that Erhu is a capable person in our Wei Mansion. The woman he likes, and he wants to get married, and our Wei Mansion will not neglect. Today I asked me to come here just to ask what your family means. Yun Niang... shouldn't be betrothed by someone else's family?"

Yun Niang's mother was blind, about 40 years old, and was not a few years older than Mrs. Liu, but her appearance was too old, with a head full of white hair, a little hunched back, and she was dry and thin. It was obviously a hard life. When Mrs. Liu spoke, she listened carefully.

After Liu's wife finished speaking, before Yun Niang could speak, Yun Niang had already spoken: "Aunt Liu, Yun Niang has married once. Erhu doesn't dislike me. If you can look down on me, it is my height and my blessing. You often walk around the village. You know that Yun Niang's previous marriage did not bring happiness, but instead suffered a lot, which made her own and her mother. Erhu's mind is not a fool, and he can understand a little.

However, this is the case in our family. There are old mothers in our family. Our Guan family has no children. As a child, Yun Niang should be supported. To be honest, the last marriage was because of the issue of supporting the family mother. My mother-in-law disagreed, and Yun Niang separated from her ex-husband. This time, Yun Niang would never agree easily. Our Guan family only recruits son-in-laws. The son-in-law you find must be able to serve your mother as your mother. Otherwise, Yun Niang would rather be a widow for life than marry again."

"Yun'er, you stupid child, it's my mother who dragged you down!" The old mother of the Guan family burst into tears, pounding her heart and sobbing. Yun's mother hurried over and said softly while comforting her mother, "Mom, I am your daughter. Where did you say that the child should do it."

"Yun'er, my mother is old and I can't live for a few years. You are still young. I'm listening to my mother. Erhu is a kind and honest child. If he follows him, he will never treat you badly. In the future, it will be difficult to meet such a good family again. Although my mother is blind, she can still feed pigs and raise chickens at home. It's always possible to change some food for her mother..."

"Mom, you need to say nothing about your child's character. You have known that you have been calling me a stubborn girl since you were a child. You can't even pull the nine cows back. Just let the child stubborn again."

Yun Niang interrupted her mother and said firmly. After saying that, she turned to Sister Liu and said sincerely: "Aunt Liu, my father left early. It's not easy for my mother to pull me up alone. As a person, you have to be a little conscience. Yun Niang is illiterate, but I always know the word filial piety. If I only care about myself and my mother, I really can't do it. I know Erhu is a good person and a capable person. If I follow him, I will never lose my fault. My ex-husband agreed to support my mother before getting married. After getting married, he regretted it on the pretext that my son-in-law has no obligation to support my mother-in-law. I asked Aunt Liu to tell Erhu that our Guan family only accepts son-in-law. If... if he can't do it, then Yun Niang... Yun Niang treats him as a brother and will never forget his kindness."

Seeing Yun Niang's firm expression, Mrs. Liu nodded and said, "I will tell you what Yun Niang means, then I will go back first, and the lady is still waiting for me to reply."

After saying that, Mrs. Liu said goodbye and went out, she could still hear the complaints and self-blame of the Guan family's mother. Yun Niang just said firmly: "Mom, needless to say, my daughter has made up her mind and will never change."

The old mother of the Guan family obviously understood Yun Niang's temperament, sighed and said nothing.

When Mrs. Liu went back, she reported the situation in detail to Xie Jiu. Xie Jiu exclaimed: "I didn't expect that she was still a filial woman, so I'll talk about it after asking Erhu's meaning."

When Wei Chi repaired the car and came back, Xie Jiu told him to ask Erhu. Wei Chi agreed and specially asked someone to call Erhu, and Dahu together, called both of them, asked the kitchen to make a table of wine and food, drove all the people in the dining room away, and the three of them gathered together.

"Come on, sit down."

He asked Dahu and Erhu to sit down, Wei Chi poured wine for the two brothers, and then served a cup of tea and said, "Dahu, Erhu, you have been following me for more than three years?"

Dahu said: "Yes, we followed the master and his wife in April of the ninth year of Zhenguan. The master and wife saved Erhu's life. The life we ​​brothers will remember for the rest of our lives."

Wei Chi smiled and shook his head, saying, "If you really want to say help, you brothers have saved us couples many times. Speaking of which, you have saved us more times."

Erhu said: "That's different. What a good person is the master and his wife. Not only did he save my life, but he also gave us brothers a place to settle down. If we hadn't followed the master's wife, we would have died a long time ago."

Wei Chi said: "Then let's stop talking. I have heard a saying before that reunion means fate. In this Tang Dynasty, I can get together and become a family. To be honest, I am very grateful to you, thank you for everything you have done for our Wei Mansion, just like you are grateful to us husband and wife."

"master……"

The two brothers were a little moved, and giggled and scratched their heads. Wei Chi smiled and said, "It's been more than three years in a blink of an eye. We have gained a lot and experienced a lot. You two brothers are really honest and honest. The two tigers are fine, and they can finally be thick and thin, with more heart than the big tiger."

Dahu smiled and said, "Isn't there any master's wife who helps us decide? We won't worry about that anymore."

Wei Chi smiled and shook his head, saying, "I was both happy and relieved when I learned that Erhu had fallen in love with Yun Niang a few days ago. To be honest, the family members in the house, you two brothers followed me in and out all day long, and were closest to me. In my heart, I treat you as brothers, just like family members. Brothers, and my family wants to get married, I am happy."

Erhu smiled and Dahu said, "Master, I'm happy too. When his parents died, Erhu was still young and didn't remember anything. When his mother died, he told me, Dahu, you must raise your brother and not let him starve to death. I remember it in my heart."

Dahu, a big man, had red eyes on the spot, and Erhu also looked sad. Wei Chi smiled and patted Dahu's shoulder and said, "You have not disappointed your mother's expectations. Now, you both live well, aren't you?"

"Um!"

The two brothers nodded together and wiped their tears. Wei Chi said, "Erhu fell in love with the girl. His wife asked someone to ask Mrs. Liu to ask her what she meant. The Guan family only recruited a son-in-law."

At this moment, Wei Chi said to Yun Niang's request and said, "You are the only two of you left in your family. If you are a son-in-law, it is equivalent to someone else's family. Today, you are called to your brothers to ask you what you mean. If you are willing, your family will definitely handle it for Erhu. If you are unwilling, then give up Yun Niang. After that, we will find someone who is in tune with you. Erhu, what do you mean?"

Erhu thought for a while with his head shut, looked up at Dahu and said, "Brother, what do you mean?"

Dahu reached out and slapped Erhu in the head, and said sternly: "You want to get married, but not me, you are the eldest brother. What objections have you ever objected when you say you want to?"
