70: Raising a wife, the whole village is inhaling the aroma of stewed meat.

Just like last time, when a tiger and a wild boar were fighting and two packs of wolves were sharing the meat, wasn't that extremely dangerous?

If an ordinary person encountered something like this, they would probably be so scared that they would fall out of the tree!

He must be gutted by the tiger!

It was eaten by wolves!

Last time, Zhou Qingwen watched the beasts eat with great interest.

What courage!

When Zhou Qingwen heard Zhou Wangcai's marriage proposal, Yu Xiongwei and his wife agreed, and most importantly, Yu Yahui also personally agreed.

This means that Yu Yalan's most difficult thing was that her second sister's marriage was finally settled.

Zhou Qingwen took Yu Yalan to the town's cooperative to prepare some things for Zhou Wangcai, since the wedding date was set for ten days later.

Well, some good things are bought in advance.

Zhou Qingwen saw Yu Yalan picking out fabrics, having several feet of floral fabric cut, and also preparing some curtain fabric, as well as some raw peanuts, walnuts, longans, etc.

Together we bought gifts worth about eight yuan and fabric worth six yuan.

Such a gift would certainly make you look quite impressive.

And that doesn't even include the gift money!

The usual amount of money given as a gift is one mao, two mao, or three mao.

Zhou Qingwen asked Liu Yue'e to prepare three mao's worth of money as a gift, but he also gave Zhou Wangcai a large red envelope containing ten yuan!

Zhou Qingwen had done his utmost to be kind and considerate to his relatives.

Liu Yue'e had everything prepared.

There's a custom called "sharing happiness" in preparing these things in advance.

Wedding gifts can be prepared in advance and placed at home to bring in the festive atmosphere.

Soon after, it will be the tenth day.

When the bride came out of the cowshed, Zhou Qingwen pushed her bicycle and took her to the door of Zhou Wangcai's house.

Zhou Wangcai helped Yu Yahui step over the fire basin, and together they bowed to heaven and earth.

Finally, they were taken to the bridal chamber.

There were only two tables of relatives present; no other guests were invited.

Therefore, they all held their weddings in a low-key manner.

Compared to the grand scale of Zhou Qingwen's wedding to Yu Yalan, it paled in comparison.

However, Yu Ya Hui was overjoyed.

Once she gets married, her older brother and parents living in the cowshed will have an easier time.

She hopes that she can go back to visit often, just like her third sister, Yalan.

Yu Ya Hui thought for a moment, her eyes filled with tears.

If it were her in the past, she wouldn't have looked at a man from a family with such a background.

But now, she cherishes it all the more because she no longer has to sleep in the cowshed.

A cowshed is a shed where cows sleep together, and since cows relieve themselves there, it naturally smells bad.

Every breath is torture!

Yu Ya Hui secretly breathed a sigh of relief; it was good that she could get married.

Zhou Qingwen, carrying gifts and holding Yu Yalan's little hand, naturally entered Zhou Wangcai's house.

The situation here isn't very optimistic either; the houses are rather dilapidated.

But it's still habitable; compared to the cowshed, this is at least a place for people to live.

You don't have to live with the cows every day; the cows also have large black lice on their bodies.

Because Yu Ya Hui spent more time in the cowshed during the summer than Yu Ya Lan, she would scream when she woke up in the morning on several occasions!

That's because there was a cow louse on her leg!

That kind of fear!

That fear!

I was so scared that my scalp tingled!

Each time she discovered it, Yu Ya Hui would cry, eventually calming down with helpless comfort.

Actually, I wasn't calm at all, so I just wrapped myself up tightly before going to sleep.

However, I was still terrified when I went for the checkup the next day...

Yu Yalan naturally understood her second sister's hardship and helplessness. As long as she could leave the cowshed, Yu Yahui would marry even if she didn't receive a single penny of a dowry, let alone 6.6 yuan!

The fear of those cow lice was terrifying beyond measure!

Any girl who has been through it understands that feeling of fear that comes from the very core of her being!

It's no different from the fear a woman feels when she's about to lose her virginity!

Zhou Qingwen had heard about this from Yu Yalan, but cow lice are something that will be present wherever there are cows, and there's no way to change it.

The only thing to do is to quickly find a suitable marriage partner for Yu Ya Hui.

After the meal, Zhou Wangcai and Yu Yahui were considered officially married and prepared for their wedding night.

night...

Yu Ya Hui let out a soft, muffled gasp, and then it went smoothly...

Early the next morning

Zhou Qingwen had a lot of battles last night, which completely bewildered Yu Yalan, making it impossible for her to get up this morning.

Zhou Qingwen didn't tell her to get up.

Zhou Qingwen went to the kitchen early in the morning to prepare a large pot of wolf bone soup and filtered out the bone fragments with a bamboo mesh spoon.

I cooked a pot of rice porridge with wolf bone broth.

I must say, with just a touch of salt and a dash of chopped green onions, it's incredibly fragrant! So fragrant!

Each person gets a big bowl.

He was so hungry he wanted to lick the bowl, but he was too embarrassed to do so, so he just swallowed his saliva, put down the bowl, and went to work to earn points.

The eldest brother and sister-in-law, the second brother, and parents all went to earn work points. The second sister-in-law stayed home to wash dishes, and Yu Yalan went to the river to wash clothes.

Zhou Qingwen then realized that he had said he wanted to buy chicks, and that he had taken the money and gone to the black market today.

After walking for quite a while, they arrived at the black market. Zhou Qingwen had brought a bamboo basket with him, which he used specifically to catch chicks.

Upon arriving at the black market, Zhou Qingwen saw some small, yellow, fluffy chicks, as well as two chicks the size of fists, and inquired about their prices.

Neither of them are expensive, just a little more expensive than eggs.

Zhou Qingwen simply bought ten of each type of chick. After carrying the chicks back home, he thought about it and decided to give them to Yu Yalan to feed. That would be cute and make her feel good.

Although Yu Yalan never complained about being tired, as a capitalist who had been sent down to the countryside, she had rarely done heavy or strenuous work before.

Now she washes all the family's coats and trousers, cooks, and waters the vegetable garden. It's safe to say she's much more tired than before.

However, it is more than a hundred times better than a cowshed.

Here she has a comfortable, soft bed to sleep in, meat to eat, a warm home, and a caring man and family.

Yu Yalan was washing clothes by the river at that moment, her wet little hands gently brushing her hair back against her snow-white forehead.

At the prime of her beautiful age.

"Honey, I've caught some chicks and come back."

Zhou Qingwen called out from afar.

Yu Yalan carefully climbed up from the riverbank: "You're taking this home? Why did you bring it here?"

"Let me help you carry your clothes back."

"I haven't finished washing yet; there are still two pairs of pants I haven't washed."

"Let me wash it, I'll get it done in no time."

"No, no, it's not worth getting my hands wet."

"What are you afraid of? Doesn't your man find it troublesome!"

Zhou Qingwen indeed went down into the river and stood beside it. Several women laughed and said, "Qingwen, can you wash some clothes for us too?"

"Okay, okay, throw it over here, I'll wash it and take it back to wear myself!"

"Oh dear! That's terrible!"

"Haha! Yeah!"

"Hehehe! You can't fit into the clothes of my Zhuang Maoshan family."

Zhuang Maoshan's wife said with a wicked look on her face.

"Can you recognize who's who when they wear these?"

Another woman immediately changed the subject, making him blush slightly as he said, "Stop messing around!"

"Hey, hey, look at my mouth, I'm just talking nonsense, don't be like that!"
