Chapter 38 Wedding troublemakers
"Cuiya Dad...Cuiya Niang... Come out quickly, come out quickly... Look, what has your new son-in-law sent you?"
Cui Ya is the one who went on a blind date with Zhou Xiang. Matchmaker Wu shouted loudly before she even arrived at Cui Ya's house, as if she wanted to shout out all the villagers in Cui Ya Village to see how high the bride price she matched by Matchmaker Wu gave.
Of course... the reason why Matchmaker Wu is so high-profile is that Zhangjia Village really gives a lot of brides.
At first, I gave the dowry ten guan and then added fifteen guan. Now, I not only gave the 15 guan, but also bought clothes, quilts for Cui Ya's family, rice, noodles, and meat... To be honest, Cui Ya's father and Cui Ya Niang were happy to Zhou Xiang, a slightly older son-in-law.
"Hey...come...come...come...!"
Cui Ya's father and Cui Ya Niang heard the greeting of matchmaker Wu and immediately went out. Seeing the long bride price team outside, they were so happy that they couldn't even close their mouths. At this moment, the villagers in Cui Ya Village also came to watch the fun.
As soon as he saw the visitor, Zhou Xiang immediately took out a cloth bag from his arms. What was in the cloth bag... Hehe, that's a good thing, malt sugar... The so-called malt sugar is actually malt sugar.
In ancient times, sweet taste was very luxurious.
Candy... was once a top luxury... Even though the wise ancient Chinese later created its substitute... Yan. Historical books say that malt candy has entered thousands of households and has become a delicacy for the people. Therefore, the term "playing with grandchildren" has been created.
However, the Tang Dynasty did not introduce it as in history books. Malt sugar entered thousands of households and became a delicacy in the mouths of the people. By the Song Dynasty, it was possible that malt sugar entered thousands of households and became a delicacy in the mouths of the people... However, in the Tang Dynasty, although malt sugar technology was already available, the unstable and unadvanced technology still made malt sugar a luxury item.
It is probably the size of a fingernail, at least ten cents. If a farmer doesn’t go to work, he will earn up to twenty cents or thirty cents a day. If you say that you can buy a small piece of malt sugar after a day, of course it is impossible.
So when Zhou Xiang showed up in his cloth bag about a few hundred malt sugars about the size of a fingernail, all the villagers present had their eyes wide open.
"Sugar..." a young man shouted excitedly.
At this time, Zhou Xiang smiled and said, "I am Zhou Xiang from Zhangjia Village. Thank you all for your blessings to Cuiya and me. Zhou Xiang has nothing to say thanks to you. A small piece of wedding candy. I hope everyone can taste the sweetness with me together, and life will get better and better..."
"Okay...the people in Zhangjia Village pay attention to it...!"
"Not bad... Cuiya is just enjoying the happiness of you Zhangjia Village people."
"Thank you...!"
"Thanks...!"
After Zhou Xiang finished speaking, he kept calling out, but Zhou Xiang did not break his promise and immediately began to distribute wedding candies, one piece for each person, the elderly, children, women, men... No matter who you are, as long as you say a word of congratulations, Zhou Xiang will give one piece.
In an instant, the atmosphere reached its peak.
Those who got the candy immediately went to compliment Cuiya's father and mother. Cuiya's parents were also very happy to listen to the kind words of the people in the village.
After saying that, Goudan rushed into his own kitchen, took a pig-killing knife and rushed out, shouting, "Zhou Crooked, labor and capital have killed you bastard."
However, just after rushing outside, Goudan was stopped by Zhou Xiang with a smile. Then Zhou Xiang took down the pig-killing knife in Goudan's hand and said with a smile: "Goudan is not panicked... I will solve the problem today for your brother-in-law. A little scoundrel is sweating, and he dares to disturb a certain wedding."
"Brother-in-law..." Goudan looked at Zhou Xiang with a calm and gentle look on his face.
