Ruan Qingshuang said to Xiao Zhang, "Your Brother Xu Yun asked you to take it, so you should take it. Why are you talking so much nonsense?"
The relationship between the Ruan Family and the Zhang Family had always been good. Both families were in a difficult situation. Although the Zhang Family seemed to have two strong laborers, there were only the two of them in the family. There wasn't even a woman to clean up the house. Xiao Zhang's mother died early. It wasn't easy for the Zhang Family to raise him.
Now, Xiao Zhang was a man in his twenties. However, because his family was so poor, he couldn't even find a wife.
Don't say that the girls in the village were very realistic. This wasn't a realistic thing at all. No family would marry their daughter to a place where they didn't even know where they would get their next meal, right?
Xiao Zhang's family was famous for being poor. Who in the surrounding villages didn't know that?
Therefore, if Xiao Zhang wanted to get a wife, he had to take out some of his family's wealth. At least, he had to renovate their old house first. He had to spend 60,000 to 10,000 yuan to build a big house. Then, he had to spend another 10,000 yuan to buy some decent furniture, such as a new sofa and a new bed.
In addition, he would need at least 6,600 yuan or 8,800 yuan as a betrothal gift to get a wife. In addition, he had to hold a banquet and invite his friends and relatives to eat. He also needed to spend money on cigarettes and wedding wine … In this way, 100,000 yuan was at most enough for Xiao Zhang to get a wife.
Therefore, Xu Yun decided to give Xiao Zhang an extra 100,000 yuan. He would treat everything else as his financial support.
"Sister Qingshuang, it's not that I don't want to take it … Who would complain about having too much money?" Xiao Zhang said, "But, but … I really feel embarrassed to take this money. I always feel like I'm taking the collective property of the village. "
Ruan Qingshuang had always treated Xiao Zhang as a younger brother. This kid had helped her family a lot when he was young. He had also fought with her brother many times. "Your Brother Xu Yun is doing this for your own good. If you want to save face, then wait until you are successful and earn money in the future. Then, you can spend the money on the village's construction."
"Look at what your Sister Qingshuang said. It's so reasonable and profound! You tell me, is there something wrong with your brain? How could he not understand such a simple thing? You can't even figure it out? "Xu Yun said," First, start a family. Do you know what that means? "
At this time, Nanny Ruan had already started to bring out the first dish. When she heard them talking about this, she agreed. "This is really the case. Xiao Zhang, I'll help you look around these few days. If there's anything good, we'll meet. Hurry up and find a housewife for your family. "
With so many people saying so, Little Zhang didn't know how to argue. He could only nod.
"His aunt, it would be great if you could introduce her to him!" When Old Zhang heard that Mother Ruan was going to take care of Little Zhang, he was overjoyed. With Old Ruan's current prestige in the village, they could definitely get whatever they wanted!
Who didn't know that the Ruan family was powerful? If the Ruan family was the matchmaker, how could it be wrong? It couldn't be wrong.
"Don't worry, Old Zhang." Old Ruan said, "Find a daughter-in-law and become a grandfather soon. Hahaha, while my wife's body is still strong, she can help your family take care of the post-natal confinement. "
Everything was decided happily. Nanny Ruan prepared a table full of good dishes for Old Zhang and Little Zhang to eat at home.
Everyone asked Little Zhang what kind of woman he wanted to find and if he had any special requirements. Little Zhang just smiled shyly and said that as long as she didn't despise his family, it was fine as long as she could live well.
As a farmer through and through, his thinking was very simple. As long as she could manage the family well, she would be the best woman.
For some reason, everyone suddenly talked about Xu Yun and Ruan Qingshuang when they were talking about Little Zhang.
"Brother Xu Yun, when are you and Sister Qingshuang getting married?" Little Zhang smiled and scratched his head. "When you get married, the whole village will be full of joy. Everyone will come to congratulate you."
Speaking of this matter, Old Ruan and Old Man Ruan were thinking about it. Yes, when would the wedding be held?
Xu Yun was now in an awkward position. What should he say?
"I've been too busy recently. Previously, I was flying all over the country. When necessary, I even went abroad." Ruan Qingshuang said, "I don't have that time."
She didn't hesitate to put everything on herself. She didn't want Xu Yun to feel embarrassed. She didn't want her parents to think that Xu Yun didn't care about her. Only by doing this could her parents be at ease and not make things difficult for Xu Yun.
Nanny Ruan got angry when she heard this. "You child … What's important and what's not, don't you know?"
"Everything is important." Ruan Qingshuang said, "Xu Yun can't run away. He's right here. And those cooperation contracts will really run away. If we don't deal with them, they'll be gone. Mom, you don't understand. "
Nanny Ruan could understand her daughter. She had been like this since she was a child. She had her own ideas and opinions. "Qingshuang, you know what you're doing. Your mom and I are relieved. But you should also think about everyone. "
After that, Nanny Ruan felt sorry for Xu Yun. "Qingshuang's character is like this. Xiao Xu, you must understand her."
Xu Yun nodded and drank a glass of wine to hide his bitterness. Ruan Qingshuang had always been considerate of him. Now she had to stand up and bear this responsibility.
"Why are you drinking so much wine? I don't care if you drink, but don't talk nonsense after drinking. "Ruan Qingshuang reminded Xu Yun." Otherwise, you'll have to sleep in the yard tonight. "
"You wretched girl, your words are really …" Nanny Ruan was so angry that she wanted to hit her.
Xu Yun smiled. Only Xu Yun could understand this. He nodded. "I promise I won't talk nonsense. I'll listen to you."
"Come, come, come. Let's drink." Nanny Zhang said. "Thank you, Xiao Xu, for today's matter. I must toast you a few more times!"
"Grandpa Zhang, I'm not worried about our wine. You'd better drink less. Your problem with shaking hands is a disease called Parkinson's. It's caused by drinking. If it gets worse, you won't be able to hold things in the future." Ruan Qingshuang said, "Drinking less is for your health. And you, Dad, don't drink so much. In the future, you and Grandpa Zhang will each drink two ounces of wine a day."
Nanny Ruan and Nanny Zhang looked at each other. Two ounces a day? Two ounces of wine was almost enough for them. They had three meals a day. If they didn't have wine for one meal, they wouldn't be able to eat.
"Drinking is for blood circulation and health. But don't drink for the sake of drinking. Your body will collapse sooner or later. " Ruan Qingshuang tried to change the topic. "Do you know the dangers of drinking every day?"
Nanny Ruan and Nanny Zhang widened their eyes. Drinking was good for the body. "Drinking every day promotes blood circulation and relieves tiredness!"
"Alcohol can't relieve tiredness. People who feel tired if they don't drink but feel relaxed after drinking are symptoms of mental dependence addiction. It's the same as drug addicts. People who are addicted to alcohol will feel uncomfortable if they don't drink. There will always be a hundred reasons for drinking. This situation is actually a sign of illness."
Ruan Qingshuang explained, "Drinking every day will affect the nervous system. After middle age, the muscles will rapidly degenerate and the intelligence will decrease. The probability of getting Alzheimer's disease is more than 80% higher than ordinary people. The great poet Li Bai wrote so many poems that were passed down through the ages because he liked to drink. But because of drinking, the son he gave birth to turned out to be a fool. "
When Nanny Ruan and Nanny Zhang heard this, they quickly looked at Xu Yun and Xiao Zhang. It seemed that they didn't want the two of them to drink now.
"Drinking every day will also kill the liver cells. In the end, you will suffer from alcoholic liver disease. If you don't pay attention, you will have cirrhosis of the liver. This is not much lighter than liver cancer." Ruan Qingshuang said, "Long-term drinking will also cause great damage to the gastrointestinal mucosa. This is why people who are addicted to alcohol will have diarrhea if they eat something wrong. There's another point. It's the same for both of you. Dad, Uncle Zhang, both of you have bad tempers. Because of long-term drinking, it will damage your mental and emotional state. It will affect your judgment and make you lose your temper easily. "
"Qing Shuang, can we still be saved?" Nanny Zhang asked nervously. He was about to find a wife for Xiao Zhang. His temper was really annoying. What should he do?
"Quit drinking." Ruan Qingshuang shrugged.
"Are you not going to let us drink today?" Xu Yun didn't know whether to laugh or cry. "Uncle Zhang, you will only have the strength to quit tomorrow after drinking today. Come, come, come."
Nanny Ruan also said, "That's right. We don't drink much every day."
Ruan Qingshuang shook her head helplessly. These were alcoholics. They would always find excuses for themselves. If they drank more than five times a week, more than one or two liters each time, they would be considered long-term drinkers. For people like them who drank two or three liters every meal, they would be considered very serious alcoholics.
But today's atmosphere was really not suitable to interrupt them from drinking. Ruan Qingshuang had no choice but to accept it.
Unless they could understand the impact drinking would have on their family and the trouble it would bring to their children when they got older, they would be able to quit drinking. If it was just that it would hurt their bodies, they would definitely not quit drinking.
