Chapter 484: Rural Wedding Banquet
The two of them walked hand in hand to the bridge, and when they saw strangers, the children seemed very curious, and then you pushed me and you chattered over, and several women who were washing clothes also looked at them, wondering how they could appear here.
Looking at the dress and temperament of the two people, they also knew that they were from the city, and they didn't hear that anyone had relatives in the city, Jian Xiyan greeted them with a smile, and said that she was just here for a vacation.
The simple villagers, hearing them say that they came here for vacation, expressed great puzzlement, but still gave the greatest enthusiasm, led by a young daughter-in-law, Murong Wenyu and Jian Xiyan walked into this small village shaded by trees.
After getting closer, Jian Xiyan found that this village is different from ordinary villages, the village is not big, but every household is red bricks and red tiles, red doors, and then green bricks pave the road, and every family lives around the water, not Jiangnan is better than Jiangnan.
This season is the season when the apricots are ripe, the yellow apricots are adorned with branches, and it is coveted to look at, in addition, there is a small piece of self-reserved land in front of each house, where all kinds of vegetables are grown, and one family also planted a drop of round watermelon, which is very gratifying.
All of them are natural and pollution-free, and the moon flowers can be seen everywhere, the red is dazzling, the pink is delicate, the yellow is charming, and the orange is intoxicating.
Seeing the red moon season, Jian Xiyan squeezed her eyes at Murong Wenyu, of course Murong Wenyu knew what she wanted to express, but could she blame him, if you want to say that he is good at swords, guns, swords, halberds or something, these flowers and plants, except for cloves, he is not familiar with any flowers.
Because he is not familiar with flowers, he always can't tell the difference between the moon season and roses, in his opinion, it is clear that it looks the same, how can it be said that roses represent love.
For Jian Xiyan's eyes, Murong Wenyu had to shrug his shoulders, he didn't think it was a shame to not be able to distinguish between Yueji and roses.
"Yu, I love it here. Jian Xiyan pulled Murong Wenyu's arm and said, this is completely a state of self-sufficiency, if there are not too many things that cannot be left behind, she really wants to live in seclusion here with Yu.
"When Miss Jane first came, everything felt fresh, and if she really wanted to stay, I was afraid that she would never like it again, after all, there were too many inconveniences compared to the city. The young daughter-in-law who accompanied them said with a smile.
Her name is Zhou Yixiu, she was married in the next village, she has been working in the provincial capital with her husband before, and now she has a child, in order to take care of the child, she returned to her hometown, and several women with her, only she has been to the provincial capital, compared to them, she has to be more knowledgeable.
"Maybe. Jian Xiyan stuck out her tongue embarrassedly, if she was allowed to live here all the time, she wouldn't feel beautiful, because she would feel beautiful because of strangeness, and when everything became a habit, it would only be boring.
The people in the village were very enthusiastic, and when they heard that Jian Xiyan was from the city, everyone beckoned Jian Xiyan to sit at home, and when a few families came down, Jian Xiyan had already received a bag full of crops.
The people in the village who are too enthusiastic can't accept it, although they understand their enthusiasm very well, but Jian Xiyan always can't bear it, after all, it is all their hard work, so she asked Murong Wenyu to wrap a red envelope for each family, there is no special meaning, just to express a kind of love for herself.
Jian Xiyan said this, and the villagers also accepted Murong Wenyu's red envelope, and the villagers said that she was not only beautiful and lovely, but also so gentle and kind, her wife was praised, and Murong Wenyu was called a beauty.
Lunch was eaten at Zhou Xiu's house, his own chickens, eggs, and fish were also just caught from the river.
Zhou Yixiu's son is more than a year old, and he has a tiger head, and when he saw Jian Xiyan, he leaned on her arms and didn't come out, Zhou Yixiu said with a smile: "This kid likes beautiful women, and when he sees it, he will rely on it." ”
Hearing Zhou Yixiu say this, Jian Xiyan squeezed his eyes at Murong Wenyu, which means, how about it, there is pressure, beauties are popular everywhere.
Murong Wenyu nodded vigorously, then gave Jian Xiyan a thumbs up, and said with his lips: I love you.
Of course he has pressure, whether it is in the southern Xinjiang country or here, there are always men around her, there is no way, his wife is beautiful, and she is so likable, how can she not attract the attention of men, Murong Wenyu feels that she is a foil.
After eating, the two of them wandered around the village for a while, and then they were ready to leave, they had to rush to the nearest town before dark, find a place to stay, and they would not be able to catch the car if it was too late.
"It's nearly two hours away from the nearest county seat, if you don't dislike it, live here tonight, just tomorrow someone in the village will marry a daughter-in-law, and you will sing on stage at night, you can feel the wedding customs in the village." Monday Xiu said.
Although it is only the first acquaintance, Jian Xiyan and Zhou Yixiu already have a deep sisterhood.
"Okay, okay, Xiu, thank you, Yu, we'll stay here tonight, watch the play at night, and see the bride tomorrow. Jian Xiyan was full of promises, she really didn't know how the people in the village were happy.
Murong Wenyu naturally obeyed Jian Xiyan's arrangement, she could do whatever she wanted, as for singing or the bride, he didn't have the slightest interest, he only cared about her feelings.
"Tonight, we will go to Xi's house for dinner, and take you to taste the farmer's big pot rice, which is definitely a different feeling. Zhou Yixiu said with a smile
"Going to Xi's house for dinner? Jian Xiyan looked at Zhou Yixiu and blinked, they just came here on a whim, Zhou Yixiu's enthusiasm had already made them hesitate, how could they bother the Xi family again.
"It's okay, there are not so many rules in the village in the city, but whoever does a happy event, the whole village will go to join in the fun, this happy event will start tonight, and it will be done until tomorrow's dinner, and the people in the village will go to Xi's house to eat in these two days, and they will not open fire. Zhou Zhou Xiu explained.
"Well, this is the first time I've heard of it. Jian Xiyan said, there was only one wedding banquet in the city, and they left after eating.
"Eating is not the main thing, in order to be happy and lively, the people in this village are more or less related to the family, and the family will be happier to have the blessing of guests from afar, so rest assured to go with me, while eating and watching the play, although it is not more entertainment than the city, but it is also a kind of enjoyment. Zhou Yixiu said with a smile.
There is nothing more entertainment available in the countryside, so whenever anyone has a happy event, singing and listening to operas has become a major event on the head.
"Can I really go?" Jian Xiyan looked at Zhou Yixiu, and then looked at Murong Wenyu, the meal was small, she mainly wanted to see it, but she was afraid that it would not comply with the rules, after all, people were doing happy events.
"Don't worry, since I said it, it's really okay, the people in the village are very hospitable, but whenever any family does a happy event, someone from the neighboring village will come to ask for a cup of wine to drink, you must be very happy when you go to Xijia." Zhou Xiu gave an encouraging look.
"Then I'd be rude. Seeing that Murong Wenyu also nodded, Jian Xiyan smiled and said, it felt as beautiful as wearing a new dress when I was a child.
When the first star with the moon appeared, indicating the coming of night, Jian Xiyan was already ready to move, and she had been looking forward to the dark sky for a long time, and at this time, there were already gongs and drums, and Jian Xiyan couldn't hold back the excitement in her heart more and more.
"Let's go, we can get over. Xu saw Jian Xiyan's impatience, and Zhou Zhou Xiu finally spoke.
After receiving the order, Jian Xiyan was suddenly in good spirits, the wedding banquet was held in the open space at the head of the village, with tables, chairs and benches on one side, and a stage that had been built on the other side, where someone was already beating gongs and drums, and the actors in costumes were stretching out their arms and kicking their legs under the stage, sitting and preparing for activities.
Out of politeness, Jian Xiyan followed the blind date ceremony like Zhou Yixiu.
As the dishes were brought to the table one by one, the drama on the stage over there was also the beginning, Jian Xiyan couldn't understand the play, but Murong Wenyu listened to it with all his might, and the hand holding her hand even buckled the beat.
Well, at first glance, you can tell that it is the child of a large family in the past.
Although Jian Xiyan couldn't understand the drama, from the expressions and performances of the actors, she knew that this was a love drama, yes, love is an eternal theme, and it is also something that people are willing to talk about.
Seeing the scene of separation in the play, Jian Xiyan held Murong Wenyu's hand hard, and Murong Wenyu also held her back tightly, as a proof that he was there.
Yes, he is here, because of him, he will look forward to the coming of every day, if he leaves one day, will the morning sun still be gorgeous? Jian Xiyan didn't dare to think about it.
Fortunately, the ending is good, and the people who love each other end up staying together.
No matter how hard the process of falling in love is, you are not afraid, as long as you can accompany each other to the end of the day, it is a good ending.
In Jian Xiyan's cranky thoughts, the opera ended, and the audience applauded vigorously.
"Thank you for your warm applause, today, I found two very special audiences, who do not belong to us, thank them for coming, let us have a different night, for which we have also prepared a special program for them, and we will invite two of them to play. The host on the stage shouted loudly, and stretched out his hand in the direction of Jian Xiyan and Murong Wenyu, and made a gesture of please.
Jian Xiyan looked at the direction of the stage in a daze, and didn't come back to her senses for a while.
"Sister Yan, don't sit still, you and your brother-in-law are going to the stage, I'm inviting you. Seeing that Jian Xiyan didn't react, Zhou Yixiu on the side hurriedly pulled Jian Xiyan and reminded.
"Is it really us?" Jian Xiyan asked uncertainly, she was just here to see the excitement, why did she suddenly become the protagonist, and she was really not prepared at all.
"That's right, it's you, go up, they're all watching you and your brother-in-law. On Monday, Xiu said that the show was temporarily added at her request.
In the chat with Jian Xiyan, I learned about their love story and was moved by their story, so I thought about doing something for her, this is just an opportunity, I hope they will like it, and I hope I can leave them with good memories.
Indeed, as the host's words fell, the eyes of everyone on and off the stage focused on Murong Wenyu and Jian Xiyan.
