Chapter 199 The awakening summer

Things went very smoothly. Zheng Tongsheng asked someone to look for her, and the Sun family agreed immediately.

Su said with a smile on her face: "Boss, the Zheng family is good, better than the Xia family. If our Lixia marries there, she will definitely be envied by others."

Sun Boming also thought so. He didn't even dare to think about marrying into Zheng Tongsheng's family.

Now that they were going to get married, she was flattered and said happily, "Zheng Tongsheng is a well-known scholar in the surrounding area. He lives in a big blue brick house and has dozens of acres of land."

I thought that Lixia was marrying the eldest son, and thus the eldest daughter-in-law, so even if the family was divided, she would still get the lion's share.

Su said proudly, "Not only that, there is a house in the county. Besides, the Xia family father and son are still working in the county, unlike us who farm the land. Lixia won't have to farm the land when she marries there, what a good life she has."

I thought it would be better for Lixia to marry into the Zheng family than for Guyu to marry into the Xia family.

Although the Xia family lives in the county, they are still farmers. The Xia family members have to work in the fields, and Guyu will naturally go there.

The Zheng family was different. They were educated and hired people to do the work. There was no need for the women in the Zheng family to farm the fields.

Su wished she could skip the dating and get married directly.

Huang was also very satisfied with the Zheng family. She didn't know the eldest grandson of the Zheng family, but she knew Zheng Tongsheng and Song very well.

Any scandal would spread immediately in the surrounding area. Over the years, the Zheng family has had a very good reputation, not to mention that the family's grandson studied in the Zheng family school and knew the Zheng family better.

He smiled and said, "Since we are meeting, get ready and get Lixia some nice clothes so she can dress up nicely."

I breathed a sigh of relief.

The marriage proposal proposed by Zheng Tongsheng was not the same as the one that Guyu had held when he went to the provincial capital last time.

This time, the two parties were meeting each other as acquaintances, and in fact, the marriage was almost certain.

The reason for the meeting is to let the two children take a look at each other and get a general idea of ​​what the other looks like.

In the village, there really is no blind marriage. The two children have to look at each other before getting married.

So the Zheng family had already told their eldest grandson Zheng Hongyuan what the beginning of summer would be like.

As for what Zheng Hongyuan looked like, Sun Boming and Sun Shan had seen him before, so they told Lixia about the situation.

They met by chance at the agreed time, and after seeing each other in person, the Zheng and Sun families decided to get together the next day.

Zheng Hongyuan was 20 years old and Lixia was 17 years old, so the Zheng family naturally wanted them to get married immediately.

Sun Boming, Su and Huang had no objections.

But Lixia said it would take another year.

Firstly, the potted plants in the house were planted by her, and she couldn’t leave them for the time being. Secondly, her elder sister Guyu also got married at the age of 18, so if she followed Guyu, it wouldn’t be too late to get married at the age of 18.

Zheng Tongsheng was generous enough. No matter how urgent it was, he would not wait for a year or two, so he agreed.

Since the head of the family agreed, the other members of the Zheng family had no objection.

Sun Boming and Su thought about it and realized that the potted plants at home really couldn't do without Lixia, so they didn't blame Lixia for acting on her own and postponed the wedding.

Lixia is now 18 years old and can be considered an old maid.

The Zheng family was also anxious, so after the two families discussed it, they decided not to wait until after the autumn harvest, which was the most suitable time for marriage, to get married. Instead, they chose a good day to get married early and have grandchildren early.

Before getting engaged, Sun Shan also asked his second sister Guyu for her opinion. Lixia was bolder than Guyu.

To put it bluntly: "The Zheng family is pretty good, with fields and houses, and even a house in the county. Master Zheng is a master and is respected. Uncle Zheng and Zheng Hongyuan work in the county and have a living.

I don’t have to do farm work after I get married, which is much better than other girls in the village, even better than my eldest sister. I am already very satisfied.”

Then he said to Sun Shan, "Shanzi, I know my roots, so marrying into the Zheng family is a blessing. At home, I have to work in the fields, but in the Zheng family, I only need to do housework. I think this is great."

Sun Shan said appreciatively, "Second sister, as long as you like it, I will support you."

The beginning of summer really makes people sober. Don’t marry too high, and don’t marry too low. Just be just right.

As for my liking for Zheng Hongyuan, it doesn’t matter at all, as long as I can accept him and find him acceptable.

Here, people marry more for the family. If the family is good, the wife will not be bad.

Sun Bomin and Guyu talked about Lixia's wedding date: "When the time comes, you should come back a day in advance to help. You should tell Lixia about what to do after getting married. You are sisters, so your words are effective. Lixia has a lively personality, so you should teach her how to get along with her parents-in-law."

Sun Bomin did not count on Su's teachings.

Over the years, the daughter has become more and more opinionated and often disobeys Su.

Su was quite dissatisfied, but she could do nothing about it. Her daughter had Shanzi's support, so Su couldn't even say harsh words.

Sun Boming also felt a sense of powerlessness. The Sun family now looked after Shanzi, and as long as he liked, they would generally obey him.

If anyone wanted to object, Shanzi would throw a tantrum, making Sun Boming and Su very helpless and afraid to disobey.

Sun Bomin looked at Sun Shan deeply and sighed in his heart. Forget it. There is only one son in the family. If he doesn't listen to him, who else can he listen to?

I need to rely on my son to continue the family line and burn incense at his grave.

Sun Shan had no idea what Sun Boming was thinking. He held Xiao Guangzai in his arms and laughed happily.

After Sun Bomin had finished saying everything he wanted to say, Sun Shan said goodbye to Guyu and the little guy.

Little Guangzai cried bitterly, shouting, "Grandpa, uncle, candy, I want more candy next time."

Sun Shan was speechless and left the Xia family yard without looking back.

Plastic uncle-nephew relationship, Guangzai's reluctance is all for the sake of candy. If I don't bring him candy, I'm afraid he won't be able to enter the Xia family.

Sun Boming and Sun Shan went to the commercial district to buy some things, then pulled the ox cart out of the city gate and headed towards Sunjia Village.

Sun Bomin walked in front and Sun Shan sat on the ox cart.

Sun Bomin asked with concern: "Shanzi, how are your studies going recently? Is everything going well?"

Sun Shan only reported good news, not bad news. However, he had not encountered any bad news yet. He responded seriously, "Father, everything is going well. The teacher took good care of me and said that my studies are doing well."

Sun Bomin believed this, and Hong Xiucai also talked with Sun Bomin several times, and both times he expressed his liking for Sun Shan.

Sun Bomin said cheerfully, "Study hard. You have your father and mother at home, so don't worry about money. Your father and mother have saved enough money for you to study. As long as you like, you can keep studying. There is no shortage of money at home."

Sun Shan hummed, his eyes red.

In the past two years, Sun Boming and Su saved all the income from the fields, the income from citrus fruits, and the income from growing potted plants. They didn't dare spend it and kept it all for Sun Shan to study.

Even Huang secretly told him that she would save her own money for Sun Shan's studies, and told him not to worry about money and just study hard.

Apart from the addition of a few acres of wasteland, nothing has changed at home.

When Sun Bomin, Su and Huang heard that studying cost money, they dared not spend any money, even on clothes.

Sun Shan was deeply moved and felt deeply guilty. This silent love made him study harder.

If not for yourself, you should also create a world for your family through reading.
