At this time, Qi Lei had been lying on the bed in the township health center for a day and a night, and he had just woken up at the moment, with a splitting headache and a soft body.

What left him lying in the hospital was a bottle of liquor.

What made him drink a bottle of liquor was the news of Annette Lu's marriage.

Qi Lei got the news last night, one night earlier than Zhao Zhenhua. At that time, Qi Lei was at home, drinking with his brother-in-law Zhou Dayong.

Qi Lei's father died early, and there are two younger brothers and a younger sister at home, and the fields are divided more, and the mouth for food is more, but the labor force is seriously insufficient. Sister Qi Hongyun and brother-in-law Dayong came to help Qi Lei break corn. Qi Lei also followed the day's work, tired and had a sore back, sat down at the table at night, picked up the wine glass and drank with his brother-in-law, three times five divided by two, and each of them three or four taels of white wine went down to their stomachs.

At this time, there was a stammering sound of firecrackers in front of the village.

Qi Lei stretched his neck, glanced out of the window, and said casually: "It's not a year, who is setting off artillery at this time?"

"Don't you know? Xiulian of the Qiangwen family in front of her is married, tomorrow is the right day, and now the cannon is fired, it should be the man who comes to send the 'big post in the door'. Mother Lan Yuzhi said.

The custom in this area is that the man has to hand a prayer note to the woman's parents the night before marriage. This prayer post is generally stuffed in through the crack in the door, so it is called the big post in the door crack. The big post has the birthdays of both men and women written in it, and there is cash in it, and if the woman is satisfied with the amount in the big post, she will open the door. If you are not satisfied, you will not open the door for a long time.

"Xiulian is married?" Qi Lei jumped up suddenly, glared and asked, "Impossible, why don't I know at all?!"

Sister Hongyun smiled: "Who are you, why do you want to let you know when you get married? Is it possible that Lu Xiulian is married, and I want to ask you, and I will invite you to drink in the next post?"

"Yes, Xiulian got married very quickly, and I haven't heard of it two days ago...... I just heard about it this morning, I married in the county seat, and I heard that the man's family is very rich. Mother Yuzhi also said.

Qi Lei took a sip of the wine, thought about it, suddenly got up and walked out, and said, "You eat, I'll go to the shop to buy a pack of cigarettes." ”

"Qi Lei, I have cigarettes here!" brother-in-law Zhou Dayong hurriedly shouted.

But Qi Lei had already gone out of the gate and strode away.

Qi Lei's family lives in the back row of the east group of Beizhuang, and the third house in the west. Annette Lu lives in the front row of the east group, the first in the east. The two families belong to the same group of East Bay, about 150 meters apart.

Out of the house, Qi Lei strode in the direction of Annette Lu's house.

Passing by the door of Qi Liangzhu, a cousin who opened a consignment store, Qi Lei suddenly turned around, got into Qi Liangzhu's house, and shouted: "Third uncle, third aunt, give me a bottle of first-class white!"

The so-called first-class white is 'first-class liquor', a piece of five-day bottle. In the countryside where bulk wine dominates the world, bottled wine like first-class white is a luxury for local tyrants.

"Hey, it's coming!" Qi Liangzhu's wife was lighting the fire under the stove, hurriedly wiped her hands and ran over, took wine from the shelf, and said with a smile: "Qi Lei, why did you come to buy wine at this big night?

"My brother-in-law came to help me break the six grains, and the family ran out of wine. Qi Lei said.

"Okay, take it. The third aunt handed over the liquor.

"Keep an account, Aunt San, I didn't bring any money. Qi Lei took the bottle and turned to leave.

"Oh...... Got it. It took the third aunt a long time to come back to her senses and answer.

Qi Lei carried the wine bottle, came to the dark place, bit the iron lid with his teeth, and poured a few large mouthfuls.

Then, Qi Lei poured the liquor in his palm again, wiped it all over his face, and made himself drunk.

He was going to Annette Lu's house to make trouble.

Three knots under the gardenia tree, it's only been a few days in the past? She's actually going to get married, it's okay!?

Is it tolerable, or is it intolerable?

According to Qi Lei's experience of studying in the county for several years, anyone who makes trouble must first have momentum, and the other party will be afraid of you.

The momentum is pressed against the other party, and the rest of the matter will be easy to do.

Qi Lei is only one meter tall in his early sixties, and he weighs only 100 catties on the scale. He knew he was lacking in momentum, so he made up for it with the smell of alcohol.

Qi Lei also thought about pulling Zhao Zhenhua and killing Lu Xiulian's house together, and Xingshi asked for the guilt. But Qi Lei felt that Zhenhua, a little white face, must not have the guts, and looking for him was in vain, which would only delay his time.

Or go to the meeting alone, it looks more imposing.

So, Qi Lei, who was full of alcohol, carried a wine bottle, drank while walking, and staggered to the door of Annette Lu's house.

The door of Xiulian's house was closed, and the lights were on in the house.

There was a van parked on the field in front of the door, two men and two women, carrying bamboo baskets and rice baskets, standing on both sides of the gate of the Lu family like a door god.

Qi Lei only knew one of the women, Hao Guolan, a professional matchmaker in Qiancun.

"Who is here, what are they doing?" asked Qi Lei, who came on a rampage and asked in a thick voice.

"Hey, who is this, you drank so much wine?" Hao Guolan leaned over, stared at Qi Lei's face, and then grinned: "Oh, Qi Lei!"

Qi Lei glared, pretended not to know, and asked, "What are you doing? Where, where did you come from? We, we...... What are you doing in the village!?"

Hao Guolan grinned and said: "Qi Lei, don't you know me? I am Hao Guolan of Xiaogezhuang, and your mother is a cousin, you have to call me a cousin." ”

"Table, table...... Table, the ...... What are you doing here?" Qi Lei staggered, put up the bottle again, and took a long sip of liquor.

"Your baby drank too much, don't drink it. Hao Guolan pulled Qi Lei and said, "Xiulian will get married tomorrow, and we are here to sew a big post at the door." The door is tucked in, waiting for the door to open. ”

"Wait for the door to open, okay, I'll help you!"

Qi Lei poured another sip of wine, suddenly raised his foot, slammed and kicked on the door of the Lu family, exerted his strength to eat, and shouted in his throat: "Annette Lu——! you are happy, people have come to pick you up as a bride! Open the door early, be a bride early, marry to the county seat, eat fragrant and spicy food, eat gold and silver, step on small leather shoes every day, and the soles of your feet are not stained with a drop of soil in Dongwan Village, you are happy, why don't you open the door quickly?!"

Hao Guolan was startled, hurriedly hugged Qi Lei from behind, pulled back desperately, and shouted: "Qi Lei, you drank too much, don't make trouble, go back to sleep!"

"What are you pulling me for? let go of me, I'll help you call the door, and let Annette Lu go to get married with you early!" Qi Lei yelled and struggled.

But Qi Lei, a hundred-pound man, fell into Hao Guolan's warm embrace, and he couldn't struggle!

The three people who were traveling with Hao Guolan also hurriedly came up to pull.

"Let go of me!" Qi Lei's alcohol surged, and his head slammed back, and with a bang, it hit Hao Guolan's nose.

"Oops——!" Hao Guolan screamed, covered her nose and squatted down, her hands immediately stained red with nosebleeds.

Qi Lei finally broke free, rushed to the door of the Lu family again, banged on the door and shouted: "Lu Xiulian, you come out, get on the sedan chair, and be a bride! People are coming from afar, and you shut them out, like words!? We people from Dongwan Village, are there people like you!?"
