In the yard,

The guests sat around each other, did not speak much, and each was silent.

Under the incandescent light, the shadows of the guests next to the banquet were reflected, which seemed a little quiet.

Only some of the cooks and some helpers walked between the tables, serving the dishes, but they were silent.

“...... Move a little further over there, and hang there......"

The man who came to get the pile of things before was standing by the wall, whispering to a man standing on a ladder, arranging something on the wires,

“...... Hang it up and it's done. ”

"Uncle Xu......"

Noticing the old man and Lian Ge, the man said something to the people on the ladder, and hurriedly walked over,

“...... Uncle Xu, the things I took from you, the things that should be pasted and hung have all been pasted and hung up, Uncle Xu, how about you take a look?"

“...... It's good, it's festive. ”

The old man moved his feet, turned around, looked inside and outside the courtyard, and said with a smile,

"Little brother, you're here too. ”

The man also laughed, then turned his head again and beckoned to Lian Ge,

"Come and ask for a glass of wine to drink, I am so happy, I don't know if I bother. ”

Smiling slightly, Lian Ge said out loud,

"Don't bother, don't bother. Welcome, welcome ......"

The man hurriedly responded, beckoning,

“...... Little brother, come, sit here first, sit here first......"

Greeting and leading the way, the man was going to lead Lian Ge to the dining table next to him,

“...... Let this distinguished guest sit at a table with me. It's also easy to talk. ”

The old man stopped the man with a loud voice,

“...... Eh...... Then this distinguished guest, please sit here, sit here. ”

The man answered, paused, turned around, and walked toward the edge of the courtyard, near the table in the hall,

"Young man, go and sit down first, and I'll come at once." ”

The old man laughed again and said out loud,

Lian Ge nodded, didn't say anything, and walked towards the dining table near the edge of the hall with the man leading the way.

“...... You are seated. ”

The man became more polite, led the way, walked to the table, and got out of the way,

“...... You sit down for a while, I'm really embarrassed to miss me for a while. ”

With apologies, the man spoke.

"My brother is fine. ”

Lian Ge said politely and said with a smile.

“...... Then you can do it yourself. ”

The man politely said another word, and then walked away quickly, and walked towards the old man who was still in the courtyard.

......

Watching the man walk away, Lian Ge turned his gaze,

At the table in front of him, no one else was seated, and the seats were still empty, only Lian Ge was alone.

Pulling out a chair, he didn't care about the surrounding tables, and the eyes of the guests were sideways, Lian Ge sat down at this table,

Glancing at the dishes on the dining table, like ordinary banquets, Lian Ge turned his gaze and looked at the door of the hall next to him.

This dining table is next to the edge of the yard, and the edge of the courtyard is the steps under the eaves.

The aisle in front of the dining table, along the past, is the door of the hall,

The door of the hall is now open to both sides, and through the door of the hall to the inside,

In the hall, it was a little dark, only a few candles placed in the hall, converging the light that barely penetrated into the courtyard, barely illuminating the hall.

It's just that in the corner, under the lights, there are still some dark places where the light can't be seen, which seems to be accumulating, and the night is filled with indissolvable night.

The hall is in the middle, the door of the hall is facing the past, the innermost wall, there are two Taishi chairs on the wall, and on the Taishi chair, there are no people sitting, but two spiritual seats,

Between the two Taishi chairs, on the small table, there are plates of fruit, behind them, there are several pillars of burning incense, and two waxes, the candle flame on the candle jumps slightly, barely illuminating the handwriting on the spiritual seat on the two Taishi chairs, and behind, hanging on the wall, a yellowed landscape painting.

On both sides of the Taishi chair, along the wall and on both sides, it seemed to be a passage to the back of the house, but there was no light, it had been drowned out by darkness, and only some wind remained, blowing from there from time to time, gently shaking the candles in the hall.

“...... Cluck...... Giggle......"

At this moment, the sound of roosters sounded in the courtyard, and the courtyard, which was already quiet and few people spoke, became more and more quiet, and the guests turned their heads one after another to look at the source of the sound.

Looking at the house again, Lian Ge turned his gaze back and looked into the courtyard,

On the side of the courtyard, against the side of the courtyard gate,

The old man was changing into the clothes handed over by the man before, it was a robe,

While draping and tying it on, the old man talked to the man.

With the breeze through the courtyard gate, the voice of words sounded in Lian Ge's ears,

“...... Those two chickens are ready, and that's ...... Uncle Xu, let's see if there are any problems. ”

“...... No problem, I didn't feed this chicken today. ”

Tie the belt, buckle the button, the old man from time to time,

The two chickens that made their crows, right next to the old man, were watched over by individuals,

“...... No, I was afraid that I wouldn't feed the chicken, I was afraid that it would be ruined, but it turned out to be nothing. ”

“...... I've been hungry for a long time, and I can't get to that point. ”

The old man buttoned up, lowered his head, looked at the two chickens again, and said in a loud voice,

“...... Speaking of which, Uncle Xu, is there anything special about not letting chickens eat?"

"Exquisite, where is it so exquisite. This is always a happy event, although the respect is to respect, the etiquette is to have, but it is not so taboo, this happy day, you are what offended, apologize, can the two old people still blame you, besides, you do this, it is also a piece of filial piety, and the two old people must also know...... Don't be too taboo, just do it according to the happy event. ”

“...... Cheng, Uncle Xu......"

“...... Then Uncle Xu, what is the saying of not giving food to chickens?"

The two people who were looking after the chickens next to them listened and couldn't help but say out loud,

“...... What do you say, I'm afraid that the two chickens will poop when they are happy for a while. Isn't this a big day?"

When the old man heard this, he turned his head and said quietly.

Hearing the old man's words, the man who took care of the chickens, as well as the man, couldn't help but lower their heads again and looked at the two chickens.

“...... How are the people holding the chickens preparing?"

The old man withdrew his hand and asked again.

"It's been arranged, and an old lady in the village has been invited to help. ”

“...... Then let everyone prepare, send this chicken over, and after a while, when it is auspicious, the sedan chair outside will start from here, go out and go around and come back...... As for you, you are also a mother's family, and this etiquette still has to be ......."

The old man said to the man, beckoning,

“...... In the end, I still went back here and got married...... After a while, I'll follow, and I'll do what I tell you to do, and you can do it......"

“...... How's the wedding hall decorating?"

“...... It's all arranged according to what you said, Uncle Xu, and the spiritual seats of the parents over there have been invited, and the things have also been arranged. ”

“...... Let me see...... Cheng, let's hug the chicken first, and wait until the guests are almost here, and the auspicious time will come...... By the way, I asked you to leave a few tables empty, did you stay?"

“...... Stayed, stayed......"

“...... That's it, let's go over it......"

The old man nodded, said another word, looked in the courtyard, removed his feet, and walked briskly towards Lian Ge's side.

“...... Boy, it's been a long wait......"
