Chapter 86: Rural Weddings

The next morning, Zhao Qiufeng cooked breakfast, and after everyone washed their faces, everyone got up to eat a good meal.

At this time, Liu Wenbo, a neighbor from the other side, came over, he took out two cigarettes, told them to come over early for dinner at noon, and told their grandfather not to forget them, and asked Sister Yuan and them to help.

When holding banquets in the countryside, they all ask neighbors to help with chores, and go to the town restaurant to invite a few stir-fry masters.

There are dozens of families in this village, with a population of about 200 people, some of whom have gone out to work, and now there are more than 100 people in the village, most of whom are elderly people and children.

After breakfast, everyone went to Liu Wenbo's house to help wash the dishes, wipe the table, choose vegetables, set the table, and set up the tent, and everyone was very busy

A few chefs were invited to chop and stir-fry vegetables, and for a while, there was the sound of children playing everywhere, and the smell of oil and vegetables was fragrant.

The adults gave the gift money to Uncle Liu, and after the uncle collected it, he wrote the names of the neighbors who came, and also wrote the gift money given, so that he could return the gift in the future.

For a while, it was very lively, everyone gathered around the door, waiting for the bride to arrive, and some beautifully packaged red candy was placed on each table.

After putting beer and liquor, Uncle Liu asked everyone to find a place to sit down first. There is candy on the table for everyone to eat.

At this time, Uncle Liu asked people to prepare firecrackers and put them when the bride came, so as to be festive and lively, and the neighbors sat at the table and ate the candy on the table.

It was almost ten o'clock, and a team came in the distance, with Aunt Zhang, the matchmaker, walking in front, and Liu Shengkun, the groom, behind.

I saw him wearing a new set of light blue clothes, black and shiny leather shoes, and his hair was combed with hairspray with a handsome left-seven hairstyle, and he walked in front with a smile on his face.

He was followed by the bride, who was dressed in a new red dress and red flat shoes.

Her hair was combed beautifully, she wore a crystal hairpin, her face was painted in a light dress, and she didn't smile much.

Behind are two uncles and aunts, who should be the bride's parents, dressed in clean clothes and without any smiles on their faces.

At this time, the bride's parents saw several red brick houses in front of them, as well as neighbors, and told their daughter to stop, and the groom Liu Shengkun hurriedly shouted: "Mom and Dad, it's almost there, let's go quickly." ”

The daughter had to stop, and Aunt Zhang saw it and quickly said, "Mother-in-law, let's go, it's almost there." ”

At this time, the bride's father said: "Xiao Fang, we said that the bride price is 50,000 yuan, and you have given 30,000 yuan now, and there are 20,000 yuan, and now you will give Qi immediately, and I will let my daughter go in with you." ”

Liu Shengkun hurriedly said: "Mom and Dad, can you go in first? I'll give it right away when you get in, okay?"

At this time, the bride's mother said, "Xiaoyanagi, give it first, you go in and get it now, and we will wait." ”

Liu Shengkun had no choice but to smile and say, "Okay, you guys are waiting here." ”

After saying that, he hurriedly went back and told his father about it, Uncle Liu hurriedly counted the bride price money he received, and the bride price money was 14,000 yuan, and most people gave 200 yuan, Uncle Liu said that it was not enough 20,000 yuan, what should I do?

Liu Shengkun took the money, so he had to say that he would go out first, to see what they said, and when he said that he went out with the money, the neighbors felt very strange, why did they not come in when they arrived at the door?

The Liu father and son both came out, they walked up to the bride's parents, and Liu Shengkun gave the money to his father-in-law.

The father-in-law took it and counted it, and the mother-in-law counted it again, and after the two of them finished counting, the father-in-law asked with a stiff face, "What about six thousand?"

At this time, Uncle Liu took out a cigarette and gave it to him, and said apologetically: "In-laws, I'm really sorry, this difference of 6,000 yuan, can I make up for it later?" Let the children in first, okay?"

This Zhao Qiufeng walked out with his two cousins and neighbors and looked around them.

At this time, the mother-in-law was also unhappy and asked: "Daughter, consider it yourself, we don't agree to this marriage, they can't get the bride price, you go back with us." ”

At this time, the bride was very embarrassed and stood there without speaking, then Liu Shengkun suddenly knelt down, took the bride's hand and said, "Wife, don't go, I will be good to you." ”

At this time, the mother-in-law took the bride's hand and said, "Daughter, go back with your parents, their family conditions are not good, let's return the gift money to them, let's go." ”

At this time, Uncle Liu immediately pulled his father-in-law and said anxiously: "In-laws, I will sell the fat pig in the family tomorrow and give you the money, okay? My son is thirty years old, and the two children like each other, can you fulfill them?"

At this time, the mother-in-law returned the money to Uncle Liu, and said angrily: "How good the matchmaker said about your family, now that the bride price money can't be paid, what is it? I don't want my daughter to suffer at your house." ”

At this time, the groom's face was pale with fright, and it was not easy to find a favorite one, but her parents were so snobbish that the bride price had to be given.

He immediately began to cry, took the bride's hand and said, "Wife, you like me, otherwise you wouldn't come with me, don't you go, okay?"

Uncle Liu gave the money to his father-in-law again, and said apologetically: "In-laws, please make the children better." ”

The father-in-law and mother-in-law were unhappy, and under their persuasion, they agreed to let their daughter go in first, and the father-in-law and mother-in-law turned around and left with the money, and Aunt Zhang shook her head angrily, but fortunately, the bride did not leave.

At this time, the neighbors returned to the table and sat down, and Uncle Liu ordered someone to set off the firecrackers, and for a while the crackling sound shook the sky, and the bride and groom walked in.

Uncle Liu sat in the center of the hall, the bride stepped over the brazier, and the groom led her to Uncle Liu.

At this time, Uncle Bao, the elder next to him, shouted loudly to worship heaven and earth, and the two newcomers bowed respectfully to the sky.

At this time, Uncle Bao was calling for the second worship of the high hall, and the two of them bowed respectfully to Uncle Liu, who was sitting, and Uncle Fang looked at them with a smile on his face, and kept saying yes.

At this time, Uncle Bao next to him called for a husband and wife to bow again, and the two newlyweds bowed respectfully to each other.

After the worship, Uncle Bao called Licheng, at this time Uncle Liu asked everyone to start eating, and the neighbors who helped brought the dishes to the table, and everyone picked up the chopsticks and ate them.

Everyone held bones in their hands, their mouths were full of oil, and the adults who drank persuaded each other to drink, Zhao Qiufeng took her two cousins to eat, and she washed the dishes with boiling water for her little cousin to eat, afraid that she would be spicy.

At this time, the bride and groom are carrying wine glasses and bottles, and each table has to go to toast, saying kind words for everyone to eat.

The two newcomers came to Zhao Qiufeng's table, everyone stood up and toasted each other, Zhao Qiufeng also took a sip of beer, feeling a spicy taste, she almost vomited, and finally swallowed it uncomfortably and ate several mouthfuls of food.

She looked at the two young newcomers and sincerely wished that they could hold hands until they grew old and would not regret their choice today.

Especially the bride, who did not get the blessing and consent of her parents, her heart was not good.

I hope she can get the love of the groom for the rest of his life.
