Chapter 889: Horseback riding
The sedan chair departed from Gui Ping's own villa, and the groom Wang Qiang is a native of the Northeast, although he is an orphan, he has the bold character of the Northeasterners, and he is a particularly sunny boy.
Several comrades-in-arms with him did not return home during the Chinese New Year, and proclaimed themselves Wang Qiang's family members and stayed to help him marry. The funny thing is that these people were all arrested by Wang Qiang and used as temporary sedan chairmen.
The horse for the marriage was sent early in the morning, and the owner of the horse also came with him, and he had to trouble leading the horse with him.
Although it is not a big deal to ride a horse personally, Wang Qiang has been riding horses since he was a child in the Northeast. But the horses here are rarely ridden, and there are more people who are married and invited to two classes, and they are afraid that the horses will be frightened. Fortunately, the horse that Guixiang found was relatively docile.
Yoyo also prepared a set of coats for the owner of the horse, which was similar to the clothes of the sedan chair, fat and big, and could be put directly on the outside of the cotton coat.
The horse's head is covered with a large red flower made of red silk, and the saddle is also wrapped in red gold velvet, which looks particularly powerful. Wang Qiang tried to slip around, but the children in the village were hungry.
After Wang Qiang dismounted, these boys wrapped themselves around the owner of the horse and wanted to sit in a circle. Precious directly put his two sons on horseback and beckoned Didi to take pictures.
At the beginning of the "high school junior", the boys in the village rushed to climb on horseback, Didi stuffed the camera in his hand to Hao Hao, and joined the horseback riding team himself.
The marriage was scheduled to leave at nine o'clock, and it was only seven o'clock after breakfast, and these children could toss and turn vigorously, and they came down and down in place just to take pictures.
Since the arrival of David blowing suona in the morning, he has been holding a video recorder and running around to capture pictures. Youyou saw that he was unreliable, so he had to take out his own video recorder and give it to Zhigao, so that he was responsible for recording the entire process of the wedding.
Didi just sat on the horse and took a photo, but he couldn't ride around, feeling very regretful, and the two of them muttered against the leftovers: "Let's exchange money to buy a horse and let your grandfather feed it, okay?"
The dog said with a big bag: "I don't need to feed my grandfather, I can just feed it after school." Didi, you go to the chief's grandfather and ask him to leave the saddle. ”
Wu Xin'er heard it next to her and tempted Didi: "Didi, go to the UK with your aunt and grandmother, I'll take you to ride a horse, and you can choose a precious horse." ”
David then promised: "Didi, I'll give you a ranch and you can raise as many horses as you want." ”
Didi listened to their words, his eyes lit up, and he asked childishly: "British ranches can be bought by individuals?"
"Yes, as long as you can afford it. ”
Wu Xin'er continued to set Didi: "Didi, go to the UK to see my medical center." Your mom is there, too, and will go with me to England in the next year, and then come back with your mom. ”
Didi was really moved, and Wu Xin'er was happy like stealing a fishy cat.
As a result, Didi followed her to the UK, and did not come back with her mother, but stayed in the UK, but followed her and David back every year for the New Year, and later took over Wu Xin'er's hospital.
After breakfast, people from nearby villages came over to see the excitement, and the streets of Hantun Village were so wide that they were surrounded by people, which was really lively. For decades, people have really never seen a sedan chair to marry.
However, storytelling and singing are often heard. In the movies and TV of the past two years, you can also see people carrying sedan chairs to get married. People want to see with their own eyes what the sedan chair is like.
Besides, today is Chinese New Year's Eve, and the preparations for the New Year are almost complete, and it is the time to be free. There are more than 2,000 people in Shimiao Village, and half of them came.
At nine o'clock in the morning, the sedan chair officially set off, Wang Qiang put on a red champion suit, put on a champion black gauze hat, rode a tall horse wearing red and flowers, and opened the way for the first two classes to blow suona.
Wang Qiang is a native of Northeast China, he is already tall, and he has been a soldier for several years, and his image is very good.
The two classes of suona, although they did not change into uniform clothes, but everyone's waist was tied with red silk, and even the musical instruments were tied with red flowers made of silk, which looked particularly neat and festive.
Gui Ping's villa, and the second master's house are in the front and back rows, out of the east and into the west, blowing and blowing around the village, more than half an hour has passed.
Aunt Hongying is married to a daughter-in-law, wearing a red Tang suit, but it is awkward to death, the key is that the hem of the skirt is small, she is used to striding meteors, and she is so fierce that she can't open her legs.
When she arrived at the second master's house, she picked up the teacup and drank it, and only after drinking it did she say: "This skirt is really a good thing, warm in winter and cool in summer." ”
Everyone looked at her sweaty head and couldn't laugh. Han Zhijie smiled and said to her: "Auntie, you really look like a matchmaker." ”
Laneige is a woman-in-law, and she wears the same. Both of them have short hair that is ear-length, and it didn't take much effort to make a bun-shaped hair cover for the two of them, and put a set on their heads, which is a special match for this Tang costume.
Zhenyu Company has a hair products factory in Hongcheng, and the hair sets made are all for export.
Aunt Hongying was quite happy with the hair cover, she said to Youyou: "This hair cover belongs to me, wear a Tang costume for the New Year, and it looks better than short hair." Besides, this hair cover is good to wear in winter, and it is warmer than a hat. ”
It's really distressing to listen to you, this tens of thousands of yuan of hair cover can be warmer than a mink hat when you use it as a hat belt. However, the eldest aunt is right about one thing, wearing a Tang costume and a hair cover does look better than short hair.
At ten o'clock, the firecrackers rang out, the suona blew up, Gui Ping was carried on the sedan chair by her brother, and the red hood on her head was shining under the sun, which was particularly dazzling. Especially the phoenix crown and xia veil she was wearing, the crowd of onlookers was shocked when she appeared.
The groom was dressed in a red champion suit, riding a horse in front to lead the way, eight sedan chairs followed behind, and the suona played all the way, still going out of the east and into the west, and circled around the village.
In Gui Ping's villa, at the request of the second master, Uncle Youyou's family is here to help. The second master and they sent Gui Ping out of the door, and came through the back door through the street.
The marriage between Gui Ping and Wang Qiang, although it is done in the form of marrying a bride, is actually a woman marrying a man, which is what is said in the countryside.
Now the girls in Hantun Village are married to women and men, and none of the men have opinions, and it is a good thing for many young men to marry into Hantun as a son-in-law.
The people of Hantun Village have a strong sense of secrecy, and until now, people outside do not know how much Hantun Village is now distributed at the end of the year, but people estimate that the per capita is at least more than 1,000 yuan.
The key is that if you marry into Hantun Village, you can go to work in the factory, that is, you will be assigned to the agricultural group, which is also different from other villages, and the labor intensity is much smaller. All high-intensity farm work is done by machines in Hantun Village.
