Chapter 53: What is Happiness?
It was nearly twelve o'clock, and the wedding feast should indeed begin.
After being coaxed out of the room, Hong Yanwu immediately greeted the waiter, and then ran to the back kitchen in person, stuffed two boxes of "peonies" into each pocket of the master chef, and put down several packs of candy according to the head. So after a short time, all kinds of cold dishes were served.
Opened in 1892, "Qunying Building" was originally called "Wang Chun Kee Hotel", which is the oldest time-honored brand in Ben City. Whether before or after liberation, there are famous chefs in charge, and the dishes are naturally cooked.
Famous dishes include "Sixi Meatballs", "Nine Turns of Large Intestine", "Sweet and Sour Fish", "Cherry Meat", etc., and the seafood dishes are especially famous for "Two Eating Sea Cucumbers" and "Shrimp Dumplings".
Therefore, no one is polite anymore at this time, and it can even be said that some people are really moving, and their true form is revealed.
Like "Flying Crab" and "Dead Corpse", I don't know if I am used to eating running water at weddings, or if I am really hungry. The two of them have no scruples about eating and drinking in private than their brothers, and getting off chopsticks is almost like "grabbing". It completely reflects what it means to be "thunderous and unblind", and what it means to be "thunderous and immaculate".
If you want to say it, the amount of food is also smaller. There were fifteen people in total, and only eight cold dishes were served, so as soon as they were put on the table, most of them didn't have time to take a turn, and they were swept away by the two boys.
The striking effect of this is that the plates are removed before they are properly arranged, and the plates are empty. This not only made Xiang Hong and Fan Gang stare at each other with chopsticks, but also made a couple of newcomers feel embarrassed.
However, the "general" is the groom today, although he is also worried about the two brothers, in order not to spoil the atmosphere, it is not really good to say anything. He could only raise his glass and toast everyone in turn.
Han Ying cooperated with the "general" to pour wine for everyone, she just smiled, her face was deeply swirled, and she was very docile and cute. This immediately showed a natural match and tacit understanding with the "general", and everyone said something for a long time.
In addition, fortunately, because Hong Yanwu took care of it in advance. Within two minutes, the hot dish followed. This quickly ended the cold field of waiting for hot dishes, which made the "general" feel relieved, and even said "everyone let go of their belly and eat".
But it's a pity that the "flying crab" and the "dead corpse" sitting at the door still don't change their lives, and when they come up with a dish, they copy it together with two pairs of chopsticks. The chopsticks are absolutely stable, accurate, and ruthless, and most of the basic plates have not been put on the table before they are taken away by these two boys.
This has aroused public outrage. The rest of the "sea bumpers" used chopsticks to beat a drum on the table, and wanted to hold a "criticism meeting" for the two boys.
This one said, "What do you eat with your stomach open?" What about the slices ......of pork? What about the pig's head? I didn't even look at it and then it was gone."
The one said, "You two haven't seen oil and water like a wolf, be careful of indigestion......"
Someone else said, "Usually you are buddies and brothers, but at this point, why don't any of you know anyone anymore?"
Even the "old saury" counted them.
"Today is not only our "sea bumper", but also the guests of Xiao Han, you also think about your 'big brother', take care of others?"
Unexpectedly, "Flying Crab" and "Dead Corpse" are a bit skinless and faceless, so they will eat it correctly.
"Flying Crab" is still full of nonchalant strong words.
"The great leader said that revolution is not a dinner party, not a fuss, not a painting and embroidery, not so elegant, so calm, so polite, so gentle and frugal. A revolution is an insurrection, a violent act by which a class overthrows a class......"
"Old saury" was so angry that he put his chopsticks down.
"It's a wedding, not a revolution. ”
But the "dead corpse" also came to help when he heard it, which is a bit big and small.
"You are reactionary! Down with the 'old saury'!"
This made the "old knife fish" even more angry and scolded, "You two are really useless, you are dizzy before you drink! That dark side is all exposed!"
The "general" also felt a bit too much at this time, and he had to say "flying crab" to them.
And Hong Yanwu was very considerate of the difficulties of the "general", and hurriedly came forward to help him round the field. When he stood up, he said to the rest of the people.
"Forget it, everyone, don't worry about the two boys. I can guarantee that the dishes in the back are still there, and they are all good. Let's let the two boys eat as they please, and whoever regrets it when they see it will suffer a loss!"
Sure enough, with the wonderful hot dishes flowing on the table, prawns, crabs, sea cucumbers, elbows, hoof tendons, meatballs, all kinds of delicacies are placed on the table. At this time, the stamina of "flying crabs" and "dead corpses" is obviously insufficient, and gradually they can only look at their greed.
The "dead corpse" couldn't help but ask in surprise, "How many dishes have you ordered today?" ”
Hong Yanwu smiled.
"I don't know the specifics, anyway, the 'general' said that except for the cold dishes, none of the hot dishes on the menu were pulled, so we wanted them all. If you want to know, count it yourself. ”
Seeing that the "flying crab" and the "dead corpse" looked at each other with some chagrin, the "three warriors" also began to make fun of each other.
"Why did you persuade you to come just now, stupid, right? It's like you've never eaten a feast. ”
"Flying Crab" immediately became unhappy and began to complain.
"Who told you to snatch my cake just now, you bastards, do you want to leave me a bite?......"
"Shrimp crawlers" are especially capable of squeezing people.
"That's to show your savings. ”
These words simply made "Flying Crab" want to scold his mother.
"That's someone else's money, why should I save it?"
But the voice fell, and "Ba Yu" was connected again.
"It's even more stingy about you. ”
"Hahaha!"
The dialogue like a group comedy made everyone laugh.
Soon all the dishes were served, and at this time, except for the bride and groom who were persuading the "flying crabs" and "dead corpses" to "rest for a while and eat something", no one cared about them anymore. Everyone put their energy into stretching out their chopsticks to deal with the dishes on the table, and they were very engaged in eating.
That was the standard way of eating in the 70s, eating more meat, sandwiching fat, and seafood was also the main target, but no one touched the vegetables.
It wasn't until half an hour later, when half of the banquet was wiped out, and everyone's stomachs were seventy percent full, that they began to continue drinking and boxing.
Don't talk, don't laugh, don't be lively, as everyone gets drunk, the atmosphere of chatting becomes more and more enthusiastic.
Unlike the men who were talking and laughing with cigarettes in their mouths and changing glasses, Xiang Hong pulled Han Ying and said something considerate. She repeatedly said hello to Han Ying with extreme envy. It has not been easy to say that she has been doing all these years, but now she has come out of the bitterness and sweetness.
These words are definitely inspired by feelings. Because Xiang Hong and Han Ying were originally educated youths, Han Ying has also been living in her home for the past few days. What happened to Han Ying over the years, the process of her reunion with the "general", and how they came together, she knows most of the situations.
Moreover, years of life in the queue have long turned Xiang Hong into a practical person. She believes that more important to women in life than feelings is the guarantee of a comfortable life.
Therefore, at the beginning, if she was just because the "general" didn't care about Han Ying's past, she was moved by the fact that Han Ying could take the risk of going to the sea to catch crabs for the recruitment of workers.
So after knowing that the "general" had arranged sick leave for Han Ying, lived in the room of the guest house for a long time, and witnessed the pomp and circumstance of today's wedding banquet, she was even more ecstatic for Han Ying because of the "general's" generosity and strong family background.
Don't look at this wedding held in secret, there is no one of the relatives of the husband and wife at the scene. But at this banquet, the wine drunk is Kweichow Moutai, and the dishes served are all delicacies from the mountains and seas that can be placed on the state banquet table. There are also two cameras to take pictures and there are double cakes...... Let's just say that, Xiang Hong can imagine and unimaginable luxury scenes, and he has witnessed them all today.
When she thought of the "model workers" who usually didn't look at her and Han Ying at all, if they saw this scene, they would probably lose their eyes! She was even more excited, and felt that it was too dignified.
Anyway, according to her, it is not easy for a woman to find someone who truly loves her, let alone that this person still has the ability to make a lot of money. Therefore, Han Ying is undoubtedly the happiest person in the world, everything she has lost and not gained will come back and fly towards her!
But having said that, there are some things that Xiang Hong sees as happiness, but the most real taste is only known to the people who are in it.
Xiang Hong didn't expect Han Ying to tell her that once this person was too idle, boredom would become a pain. Han Ying is worried about one thing now, she won't go to work after she gets married, and she has nothing to do for a long time.
Because there is no kitchen in the guest house, you don't even have to cook, so you can follow the waiter to eat in the cafeteria. The "general" also has to take people to the sea, and she can't always go with her, which is too inconvenient for everyone.
But when it comes to this, Xiang Hong's worries are different from Han Ying's. She couldn't help but whisper to remind Han Ying, saying, "Boredom is not boring, let's not talk about it first, there is one more important thing." Although you live in a guest house now, you can't buy furniture. But you still have to think about getting the 'three turns and one ring' as soon as possible. ”
The meaning of the words is nothing more than worrying about long nights and dreams, and afraid that Han Ying will return to the Jiang family in the future, and if she wants to do it, someone may interfere and hinder it.
Unexpectedly, Han Ying smiled very easily, and actually said that the "general" had already given her the money, and as long as she got the ticket, she could go to the store to buy it at any time. also told Xiang Hong that for this marriage, the "sea bumpers" also gave her a "permanent brand" Kun car as a wedding gift. Red, light and beautiful.
This news definitely surprised Xiang Hong. Especially the last thing, these years, no matter how close the relatives and friends are, with the part, one or two dollars is already full. Usually buy some ordinary daily necessities such as washbasins, kettles, and teacups. I really haven't heard of anyone who can give a bicycle as a gift! Even if you pay for it collectively, that's enough to be considered a shocking spend.
So she couldn't help but exclaim on the spot, "You will still pick and choose a good husband." Oh my God, these 'sea bumpers' are too rich......"
What I didn't expect was that someone next to me answered. "That is, the emaciated camel is bigger than the horse, who is looking for us 'sea bumper'......"
Han Ying and Xiang Hong turned their heads together, only to find that it was the "shrimp crawler" sitting next to Fan Gang who spoke. He was raising his glass to them with a smile on his face, but his eyes were fixed on red, obviously a little deliberately accosting.
In this regard, Han Ying smiled and did not speak, and Xiang Hong understood in her heart. And she seemed to be a little interesting, and immediately replied with a "flying eye". Then he asked "shrimp crawler", what did he mean by what he just said, and asked who was a camel and who was a horse.
"Shrimp crawler" says he's a camel and he's also a horse. Xiang Hong asked him what kind of horse he was. "Shrimp crawler" said that he was not human anyway. In a word, Xiang Hong was amused.
As a result, the two chatted closer and closer, and gradually Xiang Hong changed seats with his younger brother, and sat down together and chatted completely......
This day was drunk until more than two o'clock in the afternoon, and the guests and hosts enjoyed themselves. What people didn't expect was that there were quite a few strange things that day.
Except for the "shrimp crawler" and Xiang Hong hooked up, that is, the groom was not drunk, and no one deliberately poured alcohol, but Hong Yanwu drank too much and vomited once after returning to his residence.
The most inexplicable thing is that Hong Yanwu was lying on the bed, and he kept saying the same sentence to Chen Liquan repeatedly in his mouth.
"Everyone deserves a chance to do it all over again, and everyone deserves to ...... Quanzi, are you right?"
Chen Liquan, who was guarding him, replied tirelessly, "Yes......!"
This night, in the end, belongs to a couple.
Approaching midnight, Han Ying consciously began to make the bed. This move "general" immediately realized that now was the most "important" time.
His body burned hot and slammed towards Han Ying, wanting to walk slower or calmer, but in fact he almost rushed over. Even he himself found it a little scary, a little shameless, like a villain who wants to do bad things.
Unexpectedly, Han Ying stroked the pillow and bed sheets, still very calm, and smiled when she saw him approaching.
The "General" immediately doubled his courage and walked up to her, saying, "It's too late." We ......"
As soon as he finished speaking, he regretted it even more, and he wanted to slap himself in the mouth, he felt that this faint sentence was not necessary at all, and it would definitely make Han Ying embarrassed.
Who knew that although Han Ying's cheeks were flushed, she took the initiative to raise a hand and put it on his feverish head, and said affectionately, "Are you tired?"
And this action made her breasts clinging to his body at once, and what was even more fatal was that she was wearing the red shirt, which made people feel that women were so beautiful.
Like an electric shock, the "general" couldn't help hugging Han Ying all at once. Maybe a little carried away, Han Ying couldn't help but snort.
But he couldn't care much more, he completely entered the state of a beast, knocked over the chair, and threw Han Ying on the bed with a "poof".
He's clumsy and rambling. When he gasped and couldn't find a way to vent, he saw Han Ying's surprised eyes again, and he was immediately ashamed.
So in the end, although he was guided by Han Ying to complete everything, the process before and after was less than five minutes, and with a burst of panicked excitement, he immediately collapsed.
When he fell on the bed like a beast shot in the head, he had only one thought in his mind.
How so? Shame on you!
But Han Ying's arm was wrapped around his neck, and he asked quite gently, "You...... Is it the first time?"
He blushed and nodded like a fool.
Unexpectedly, Han Ying's arms were wrapped tighter, and she put her face against his chest and muttered, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry for you......"
He was puzzled at first, but then he reacted. hugged Han Ying and said, "You fool, don't test me again and again by saying such things." I know you want me to love you as a perfect woman! I will definitely love you as a hundred beautiful women if I have your ambition. ”
It was this sentence that, from the inside out, completely ignited Han Ying's enthusiasm.
She very patiently began to kiss him, rubbing him, and a few tears even flowed on the body of the "general". This little lamb-like appearance, the feeling of the wind and drizzle, soon made him feel regained his strength, and he became a tiger again.
And after Han Ying tried his best to persuade "Don't worry, don't worry...... don't worry", he finally couldn't help but hug Han Ying again.
This time, he completely restored the prestige of a man. I asked Han Ying firmly.
He was out of control, and during the whole process, he couldn't stop calling Han Ying's name, and the emotions that had been suppressed for more than ten years were like an atomic bomb explosion, all of which burst out at once.
What made him even more excited was that on Han Ying's mature face, the old pure, shy and slightly panicked look reappeared.
It's something that definitely moves him.
It reminds him of the beauty of the times at the same table, of the red scarf, of the leaves in the sun, of the clear blue sky, and of the vast sea......
He hugged her tightly, struggling to find her. The last gaze was completely fixed on her eyes.
I can't see the world in my eyes, I can't see fat powder, and I can't see the charm!
On the contrary, he saw Han Ying who was unforgiving to him when he was a health commissioner, Han Ying who came out of the sea wet and hugged him tightly, Han Ying who stood up and applauded and cheered for him on the sports field, and Han Ying who was wearing a heroic military uniform on the train and handed him a little red book with both hands......
All that good things came back! This made his enthusiasm last for a long time, and it rose like a stormy wave!
He feels that he has finally obtained everything he wants! Announcement: This site recommends a free APP, say goodbye to all ads. Please pay attention to the WeChat public account to enter the download and installation: appxsyd
