In the afternoon, Gui Ping came to shout Youyou and went to see the Jiege family to give a gift to the object. When the two of them arrived, there were already many people at the door of Jiege's house.

After you came through, you found this characteristic of the village, who has a special thing, the whole village goes to watch, and the seven-tongued etiquette is discussed.

It turned out that the girls who were engaged in the village and their in-laws came to give gifts, but Jiege's family did not come. Today is the last day, and she is the first person in the village to slam the door, no wonder everyone is around to see it.

The gifts are all in the afternoon, so that there is less need to manage the meal at noon, and the picture is convenient and trouble-free.

Jiege's four brothers were all squatting in the courtyard, their faces were very ugly, and none of them said anything. Jiege wept silently at the kitchen door, and her father and mother sat in the hall and did not speak, and the atmosphere was particularly heavy and depressing.

The people in the village were talking in a whisper at the door of Jiege's house. "Our village has never recruited a son-in-law who has fallen into the door, do you have to give a gift to the man's family?"

"Probably, why don't you come today. ”

"Don't guess, her mother-in-law's house is far away, so she can't come so quickly. ”

People were talking, and some of the sharp-eyed whispers shouted, "Here, don't talk about it." "No, two people from other villages are pushing bicycles and walking here, and on the back rack of the cart are two baskets made of peeled dustpans and willows.

Immediately, a fast-talking woman shouted, "Jeege, your son-in-law is here." Ashamed, Jege hurried into the kitchen.

Jiege's father and brother came to the spirit, patted their clothes and tidied them up, and they all went out to greet them. However, her father and mother stopped at the gate of the hospital.

The person who came to give the gift was a middle-aged man, and when he saw the person who came, he said loudly: "In-laws, I am late with my nephew, you can take care of it." In a word, I made my identity and apologies clear.

Jiege's brothers took the car, and his eldest brother spoke first: "Uncle, you have a long way to go, are you tired? ”

Jiege's object lived in her house for three months, and she was familiar with everyone, and when she saw Jiege's father, she said embarrassedly: "Uncle, aunt, my father and mother said that they will use energy in the evening, so let me come to the tenth day of the year, don't be angry." ”

This is a real person, and he confessed his father and mother in one sentence. But isn't it, now that the weather is cold, the roast chicken and meat can be put for two or three days, and those who stay and those who are pressed back can go to relatives, and the two families can save money to buy gifts.

Jiege's mother made three bowls of poached eggs in the kitchen, a bowl of six, put white sugar in them, and called Jiege's brother to serve the bowl. This poached egg in sugar water is also called egg tea, which is a special hospitality tea for the new son-in-law.

Drinking egg tea is also particular, only four can be drunk, and there must be two left in the bowl. When the guests left, the younger children drank it and it was good for their health. In fact, it is the era of poor materials, and every effort is made to leave delicious food for the children.

The egg tea was served, and Jiege's father was left in the house to accompany him. Her brothers took down the gifts in the courtyard and unwrapped the bags on them so that everyone could see the contents of the house.

Everyone went into the courtyard and stood in a circle looking at the gifts. There are four kinds of gifts in the two yuanzi, one is six catties of pork, six roast chickens are wrapped in lotus leaves, and the bottom is six catties of moon cakes.

Inside the other is apples, full of them, all big and red. Everyone said that this family was real, and Kwa Jiege found a good person, and they seemed to have forgotten what they had just said.

Jiege Niang left six catties of pork, two roast chickens, two catties of moon cakes and ten apples according to the rules.

Everyone thought she had left little, and someone deliberately persuaded her loudly: "Auntie, they all say that the mother-in-law loves her son-in-law, and you will hurt now." Just leave him with such a little thing, and let him take it just for him to see. ”

Jiege's second sister-in-law is a powerful one, and scolded loudly: "Who invited you to come and see, go out." "No mercy at all.

After leaving the gifts, Jeger's brother put the things on the back rack of the bicycle and tied them again.

After listening to everyone's discussions, I realized that there are rules for giving gifts during the Mid-Autumn Festival.

Generally, an unmarried man gives a gift to his woman, and he has to get four gifts: six catties of pork, six catties of moon cakes, six roast chickens and apples.

The woman usually leaves the pork as a gift, and pulls the girl to eat a piece of meat, which is always exquisite. In addition, leave two roast chickens, two catties of moon cakes, and more than a dozen apples.

The roast chicken left behind was for the elderly grandparents, one for the grandmother and the grandparents. In addition to being able to eat roast chicken, people generally do not sell roast chicken to eat.

The man who pressed back the gift had to hurry up and leave his relatives, although the roast chicken was so salty, it couldn't be kept for a few days. If you give a gift on the sixth day of the new year, it will be too early to leave ordinary relatives. That's why the subject of Jiege said that something could be used later.

In the hall, the guests put down the bowls, and Jiege's father shouted to Jiege to collect the dishes and chopsticks. Jiege entered the house with a red face, shouted "uncle", and took out the bowl and handed it to the sisters-in-law waiting at the door.

Then, when he went into the back room, her father said to his subject, "Jege has made you a pair of shoes, go in and try them." ”

The words fell, and the young man went into the back room with a red face. Outside the small window of the inner room, there were many women watching the excitement, and some of them were still crowded at the door of the hall, hooking their heads to look in, and no one cared.

Everyone laughed, and there was no embarrassment of peeping at all, it seems that this is the custom here. It's a few degrees of light bulbs, and it adds up to several kilowatts.

Rinya handed her a new pair of shoes, "You can try it." ”

The young man quickly put it on and stomped it twice, "It fits perfectly." The voice was very satisfied.

After trying it out, he took it off and handed it to Jege. Jiege wrapped it in a bag, and the sharp-eyed woman saw the fame and shouted outside the window: "Jiege, you have two pairs of shoes." ”

Jiege wrapped it and handed it over, and when she took the burden, she handed Jiege something easily: "I asked someone to buy it for you." ”

As soon as the words fell, he shouted outside the window again: "Jiege, what a good thing, let us see." There was a burst of laughter.

Listen to the forehead, is this person still a little conscious, I don't know if he has violated others. Also, people have no rights in this era.

Jeger came out of the back room with a red face, and was snatched from her hand by her best friend. Yoyo was speechless, it turned out to be two plexiglass hairpins sold by himself, and the little girl in the village was sent by Yoyo, but the older girl didn't send it.

"It's so beautiful, I just don't know where to buy it. ”

Gui Ping shook her head prominently, and she also wore two on her head. "Ask Yoyo, she gave it to us. "Not only did she wear it, but several little girls wore it.

The young women didn't care about joking with Jie Ge, so they all gathered around Yoyo and asked, "Yoyo, where did you buy it?"
