Chapter 373: Wedding
When the summer came back with two hares, Yao Xi had already left, and only Wang Xiaogang's brother and sister were gone.
"Huh, why are you here? ”
Summer was a little surprised, and then raised the hare in his hand and said with a smile, "It's just right, the three of us have a barbecue at noon......
As he spoke, he stopped, "Xiaogang, Xiaoying, what's wrong with you?"
The faces of both brothers and sisters are not very good-looking.
Especially Wang Xiaoying, tears are still flashing in her eyes, obviously she has just cried.
"Brother Tian, I'm sorry ......"
Wang Xiaoying pursed her mouth and wiped her eyes, but she couldn't stop crying, "I, I don't know Grandpa Xia, he has ...... Woowoo woo ......"
Wang Xiaogang's eyes were also red, and his face was full of self-blame.
When they were children, they often went up to the mountains to play, so naturally they were also familiar with the old man.
However, in front of outsiders, the old man has always regarded himself as the grandfather of Xia and Xia Xue, and the Wang Xiaogang brothers and sisters are naturally called Grandpa Xia.
Later, in the summer, they went to high school in other places, and at first, the siblings would occasionally go up to the mountains to visit the old man a few times, but as time went by, the number of times became less and less.
It wasn't until today, after chatting with Yao Xi and seeing the cemetery and tombstone, that they knew that the old man had passed away.
Summer did not blame them, and even comforted them with kind words.
In fact, there are no bones of the old man in this tomb...... Cremated according to his last wishes.
And the ashes were also sprinkled on this low mountain, which had long since disappeared with the wind.
But in the summer, he still erected a mound of clothes, and he would come back every year to pay respects, but he never met the brother and sister.
After a long time, the brother and sister stopped their grief and respectfully kowtowed three times in front of the grave.
"Okay, we're ready to eat, just like when we were kids. ”
Summer pointed to the two hares on the ground and began to issue orders, "Xiaogang prepares the bracket and spices, Xiaoying goes to prepare firewood, and I am responsible for cleaning up the two rabbits." ”
"Okay. ”
The two of them responded in unison, and they were both eager to try.
Next, the three of them had a clear division of labor, and soon set up a fire rack, lit a bonfire, and the two rabbits had been cleaned up and started to barbecue.
During this period, the three of them talked and laughed, and the atmosphere was harmonious, and they seemed to go back to their childhood.
"Brother Tian, is that beautiful sister your girlfriend just now?"
Wang Xiaoying seemed to ask casually, but her dodgy eyes betrayed her inner emotions.
"I don't know her. ”
Xia smiled, looked at the two of them with stunned faces, and didn't want to continue the topic, "By the way, Wu Jie brought people up before, and I taught him a lesson, I have already warned him, I guess I won't dare to trouble you again in the future." ”
The brother and sister were immediately distracted, and at the same time, a complicated color emerged.
"No wonder. Wang Xiaogang quickly restrained his strange appearance and scratched his scalp, "Actually, when we went up the mountain, we met them coming down the mountain, and they were bleeding one by one." ”
After a pause, he said, "That black fourth even begged me in person to let me say a few more good words in front of you, and he promised to persuade Wu Jie that he would not trouble me in the future." ”
"That's the best. ”
Xia smiled and reminded, "By the way, since Liang Aihua's family no longer asks you for a bride price, and Wu Jie's matter has been resolved, hurry up and pick a date to tie the knot first, and you must tell me when the time comes." ”
As soon as he said this, Wang Xiaogang suddenly smirked.
And Wang Xiaoying next to him grabbed the words, "Brother Tian, in fact, my brother's wedding date has already been set, just three days later, I forgot to tell you when I left yesterday." ”
"Three days later?" Xia was stunned, and his face was immediately filled with joy from the heart, "Xiao Gang, then I'll congratulate you." ”
"Hey......
Wang Xiaogang let out a stupid laugh again, and looked at him expectantly, "Xiaotian, you must come when the time comes, we grew up together from open crotch pants." ”
"Don't worry, I'll be here for a week, and I'll go if you don't say I'll go. Summer flipped through the rabbit meat, "Have the other relatives and friends notified?"
"I've been notified a long time ago. ”
Untying the knot, Wang Xiaogang seemed very happy, "In addition to my colleagues at work, some middle school classmates who have a good relationship with me have also been invited, but I don't know if they will come or not." ”
After a pause, he seemed to remember something, and a strange expression appeared on his face, "Xiaotian, do you remember Su Mengmeng?" After graduating from middle school, we have been in contact all the time, and she often asks you on the phone. ”
As he spoke, he secretly glanced at his sister and hurriedly said, "This time I want to get married, and she will definitely come to the wedding." ”
"Su Mengmeng?"
Summer was stunned for a moment, and then suddenly said, "That township chief's daughter?"
"That's her. Wang Xiaogang nodded heavily, "She's amazing now, she's the president of a bank branch in the city." ”
"Branch president?" "Summer was a little surprised, "You're not wrong?"
The two are very different, and their respective functions are even more different.
"Uh......"
Wang Xiaogang was asked, a little Hao Ran, "I don't know the specifics, everyone says she is very powerful." ”
......
Talking and laughing, the rabbit meat was quickly roasted, and there was a burst of refreshing aroma.
After sprinkling the seasoning evenly, the three of them began to eat with great pleasure.
After eating, Xia followed the brothers and sisters down the mountain, bought some gifts at the village commissary, and went to visit Wang Xiaogang's parents.
chatted with the second elder for a long time, and naturally ate at their house in the evening.
However, after eating, Summer refused to stay and returned to the mountains again.
The next two days were dull and calm.
But the next afternoon, Summer went down the mountain and rushed to the village.
Marriage here has its own customs, and relatives and friends on the groom's side will arrive at the party one day in advance and pick up the bride the next day.
At about half past three, the summer came to the Sanjiang Hotel booked by Wang Xiaogang as scheduled.
Sanjiang Hotel is one of the high-end hotels in the township, and it is definitely more than enough for wedding banquets.
As soon as I entered, I was greeted by a festive atmosphere, and I saw a few strange and familiar faces in the summer.
"Brother Tian, you're here. ”
Wang Xiaoying, who was originally greeting guests, saw Xia at a glance, and immediately greeted him, full of joy, and very enthusiastically pulled him to sit down at a table.
"Where's your brother?"
"I'm busy inside. Wang Xiaoying pointed to a box on the right, "I'm going to call him now?"
"No, I don't. ”
Summer immediately waved her hand and said, "By the way, if there is anything I need help with, don't be polite." ”
"It's all ready. ”
Wang Xiaoying laughed, her eyes were a little fluttering, but she still asked, "Brother Tian, isn't the beautiful sister who was on the mountain that day really your girlfriend?"
"It's not. Summer looked at her with a smile, "What's wrong?"
"No, nothing?" Wang Xiaoying squirmed a little, "My brother and I thought she was, and she learned that my brother was going to get married, and she said that she would come." ”
"Huh?"
Stay in the summer.
He was about to continue asking, but at that moment, a slightly harsh voice came from behind him. "What a rarity, isn't that anyone...... Oh, what's summer about...... Yes, yes, summer!"
