Zhang Fugui and Li Huiru looked at Auntie Wang. Auntie Wang was also confused. Obviously, she did not know why Jiujiu was here.
Zhang Fugui and Li Huiru could not find an answer from Auntie Wang. They could only frown and wait.
The village chief quickly came over. When he saw Jiujiu and Zhang Laosan's overlapping hands, he was stunned for a moment. Then, he took out the written agreement that Jiujiu had instructed someone to write and handed it to Zhang Fugui and Li Huiru.
The Village Chief looked at Zhang Fugui and Li Huiru. He opened his mouth but did not know what to say.
Zhang Fugui and Li Huiru had been asking Auntie Wang about Widow Mu. Although not many people knew about it, there were still quite a few.
How many poor families didn't want their sons to be a live-in son-in-law? But Zhang Fugui and Li Huiru wanted to send their sons to be a live-in son-in-law to a widow. Although Zhang Laosan was their son and they could do whatever they wanted, to be fair, Zhang Fugui and Li Huiru weren't playthings.
Because he looked down on Zhang Fugui and Li Huiru, the Village Chief did not want to say more to them. He only handed the agreement to them and lowered his head to urge them to quickly sign it.
Zhang Fugui and Li Huiru had never studied before. They did not even know how to write their own names. When Jiujiu saw this, she directly asked them to put their thumbprints on it.
There were two copies. Jiujiu, Zhang Fugui, and Li Huiru each had one copy. Jiujiu then gave the money to the Village Chief. Then, she looked at Zhang Fugui and Li Huiru and said, "I want to bring Big Brother Zhang to my house. Is that okay?"
Although becoming a live-in son-in-law was the same as marrying a wife, and there was a ceremony to be held, it would definitely be a waste of time to hold this ceremony. Whether it was Jiujiu or Zhang Fugui and his wife, they didn't want Zhang Laosan to continue to stay in the Zhang family. Therefore, bringing Zhang Laosan directly to their home was the best choice.
Hearing Jiujiu's question, Zhang Fugui and Li Huiru paused for a moment before nodding.
Now that Zhang Laosan was no longer obviously estranged from them, it was better to let him go to Jiujiu's house instead of letting this estranged son continue to stay at their house and eat their own food.
The village head saw that Zhang Fugui and Li Huiru didn't recognize him after taking the money. He sighed heavily in his heart and left with Zhang Laosan and Jiujiu.
Jiujiu followed Zhang Laosan to the Old Family Zhang. She asked Zhang Laosan to pack up his things and bring them to her home.
Although he said that he was going to pack his things, Zhang Laosan really didn't have many things worth packing.
There were only two or three pudding clothes and two pairs of shoes that exposed toes. Even the new clothes were made for Zhang Laosan in order to sell him at a good price.
Zhang Laosan changed his new clothes and wore his old clothes. He carried a small package and went to Jiujiu's house with Jiujiu.
The next day, Jiujiu and Zhang Laosan went to the Public Security Bureau to transfer Zhang Laosan's household registration. Then, the two of them got a marriage certificate.
After getting a marriage certificate, they naturally had to hold a wedding.
The news that Jiujiu was going to marry Zhang Laosan instantly spread throughout the village as if it had wings. It was a big matter that no one didn't know about.
As for the matter of Zhang Laosan marrying into Jiujiu's family, the villagers also launched a heated discussion. There were all kinds of versions, but the most reliable one was that Jiujiu and Zhang Laosan were originally in a relationship, but Zhang Fugui and Li Huiru were black-hearted. They deliberately sent Zhang Laosan to the widow to be her son-in-law for their eldest son. As a result, Jiujiu happened to know about it.
Originally, the marriage between Jiujiu and Zhang Laosan became Zhang Laosan marrying into the family.
Although they were all married, marriage and marrying into the family were completely different. If Jiujiu married into the Old Family Zhang, her things would belong to the Old Family Zhang. Thinking of Jiujiu's money that was like flowing water, if he could marry Jiujiu, the Old Family Zhang would simply welcome back a God of Wealth.
It was a pity that the Old Family Zhang didn't have the fate of welcoming the God of Wealth. The God of Wealth was driven away by their anger. Now, his son was married into the family, and the Old Family Zhang's wealth couldn't be touched at all. It was really picking up sesame seeds and throwing away a watermelon.
However, for the Old Family Zhang's matter, there was little sympathy from everyone. Who asked Zhang Fugui and Li Huiru's matter to be so bad?
He forced his son to marry into the family of a widow. He could even do something like being criticized behind his back. He was really lacking in virtue.
The discussion of the villagers didn't affect the wedding of Jiujiu and Zhang Laosan.
There was nothing to discuss about the wedding in the countryside. It was just a banquet.
However, although it was a banquet, it couldn't stand up to Jiujiu's feast. Not to mention the flowing meat, even the vegetarian dishes were something they hadn't eaten before. The people who finished the feast said that although Zhang Laosan had married into the family, he was living a happy life.
The feast didn't even accept gifts. It could be seen that the girl was rich. Wasn't Zhang Laosan living a happy life after marrying into the family?
However, after saying that Zhang Laosan was living a happy life, everyone inevitably talked about Zhang Fugui and Li Huiru again. However, Zhang Fugui and Li Huiru weren't speaking well of them.
They said that the two of them were black-hearted. They said that the two of them were blind. They said that the two of them were unlucky. There were all kinds of words.
Of course, the most laughable thing was that Jiujiu and Zhang Laosan held a banquet for their wedding, but they didn't invite the Family Zhang. Wasn't it obvious that they didn't want to have anything to do with them?
However, this was other people's business after all. After everyone discussed it, they didn't take it to heart.
After Zhang Laosan and Jiujiu got married, he no longer went to the field. Instead, he read in the study.
Every morning, Zhang Laosan would follow Jiujiu to the study. Jiujiu taught him how to read, English, and other subjects.
Although Zhang Laosan wasn't particularly smart, he was particularly persevering and persistent. He studied the things that Jiujiu taught him a few times. Every day, he would study under Jiujiu's request in the morning and study under Jiujiu's guidance in the evening. After a month, Zhang Laosan's learning progress was much faster than many people. Jiujiu estimated that in less than three years, Zhang Laosan could be arranged to take the college entrance examination.
Unlike Zhang Laosan's happy and even comfortable life, Zhang Laosan's family was in a complete mess.
With one thousand yuan from Jiujiu, Zhang Fugui and Li Huiru finally had enough money to build a brick house and began to build the house.
Because the building of the house was done by Zhang Fugui and Li Huiru, and Zhang Laosan had already moved to Jiujiu's house. It had nothing to do with them. All the work in the field fell to Boss Zhang.
