Chapter 22: Marriage (2)
The news that Wang Yongliang was going to get married naturally alarmed many people, not to mention anything else, Wang Xiangsui, Yang Ying, and Zhang Weihong immediately organized a group to go to Gaoping.
After the three of them came back, they purchased a villa of more than 400 square meters at the foot of Wanfo Mountain, and then arranged for people to decorate it.
Li Linlei told Wang Xiangsui that the house in Xinglin Community is very good, and there is no need to ask for a house anymore.
Wang Xiangsui and Li Linlei said that this was a wedding gift jointly given to them by the three aunts, and they were not allowed to refuse.
Wang Yongliang has nothing to do with this, anyway, the three aunts have made a lot of money over the years, and this villa is only three million in the sky, one million per person, and they can't hold down their hands and necks.
Besides, my aunt treats her as if she were her own child, and she doesn't let her express it, can she stand it well?
Then within a few days, Wang Xiangke and Qi Guangrong came to Shuibei and called Yongliang and Li Linlei to go to the third grandfather Wang Ji'an's house.
When Yongliang and Li Linlei arrived at their grandfather's house, they were already discussing going to the capital.
Wang Ji'an said: "If you want to talk about the old ceremony, we have to be hired, now in the new society, we don't want to do that, but the two parents' families must always meet, right? At least there must be a ceremony, otherwise, it will be too disrespectful to the in-laws." ”
Wang Yongliang and Li Linlei had no right to speak, so they could only follow the arrangement.
In the end, it was decided that Wang Ji'an, Yu Fangyao, Wang Chuandao, Yang Jian, Wang Xiangsui, Wang Xiangke, Qi Guangrong, plus Yongliang and others, a total of nine people, would go to the capital to meet the Li family together.
Li Linlei called the Wang family to tell her family's decision, and the family was very happy to hear it and expressed a warm welcome.
To make a long story short, when the Wang family and his entourage arrived at the Beijing Airport by plane, the Li family who came to pick them up had been waiting for a long time.
Li Linlei saw her parents and younger brother from afar, trotted over to meet her parents and younger brother, and then introduced the royal family elders who came over one by one.
Li Linlei's father is called Li Guanghui, her mother is Wang Chunyu, and her younger brother is Li Cheng.
When the Wang family saw that Li Guanghui and his wife came to pick him up in person, they naturally felt very embarrassed, and Li Guanghui kept apologizing: "If it weren't for the old man's travel being too troublesome, his old man would come to pick up the plane in person, and I hope that my uncle, aunt, in-laws, and senior brother will not blame." ”
Yes, Wang Ji'an and Yu Fangyao came in person, it is indeed a great face for the Li family, it is said that Li Fengru should come to pick him up in person, but he must report to the relevant departments for the record when he travels, and arrange guards, which is really too troublesome
Li Guanghui has repeatedly explained, and it can be regarded as a sufficient gesture. Wang Ji'an naturally won't mind, although he doesn't know him, but Li Fengru joined the army earlier than himself, his military age is longer than himself, and his position is higher than himself, so if he doesn't come to meet normal, if he really comes, he Wang Ji'an really can't afford it.
Li Cheng and Yongliang were already very familiar, he hugged Yongliang and said, "Brother-in-law, congratulations, you finally succeeded in marrying this hot yam." ”
"Classmate Li Cheng, do you want to find a smoke?" Li Linlei said as soon as she heard this, grabbed Li Cheng's ear.
"I'm about to get married, and I'm so hands-on! Am I your own brother?! Let go, let go!" Li Cheng was very stunned for his sister, and it seemed that he had been bullied a lot.
"Hahaha....... Everyone was amused by the siblings.
It was difficult to talk at the airport, so the group took five cars and went to Li's family.
When he arrived at the gate of the Li family's courtyard, Li Fengru was greeting him at the door.
Wang Ji'an got out of the car, dressed neatly, stepped forward to give Li Fengru a military salute, and greeted loudly: "Hello chief!"
Li Fengru returned a military salute: "Deputy Commander Wang, hello." ”
In the army, according to this rule, the deputy commander is the deputy commander, and he will never politely call you the commander.
When Yongliang saw this scene, he said in his heart, what are you two doing? This is a family meeting, how can it be like an inspection by the chief?
Spit and complain, but the words are not spoken.
Although Pastor Wang had already come to the capital to visit the master, when he saw the master at this time, he still wanted to kneel down and kowtow with the old courtesy, but was stopped by Li Guanghui: "Senior brother, let's let the in-laws enter the house first." ”
Then the king preached.
When they all entered the house, Yongliang and Li Linlei introduced them, and everyone finished the ceremony, and then they were divided into two tables for men and women.
Yongliang saw that Wang Xiangsui and Li Linlei kept looking for topics at his mother's table, and Wang Chunyu was very good at dealing with people, so he quickly became acquainted, and he talked and laughed with Qi Guangrong, so he slowly relaxed.
He feared most about his mother's neglect.
Although she has earned some money over the years, her mother has moved from Wangzhuang Village to live in the county seat, and the people she usually contacts have also reached a higher level, but after all, she is still a rural woman, and her words and deeds are always indistinguishable from the local taste. Wang Jiayu is a military doctor and a big family, and she usually has eyes above the top, I am afraid that she will not look down on her mother, if there is contempt in her expression, she will definitely not be able to stand it as a son. If something really unpleasant happens, it will be difficult for herself and Lin Lei to do it.
He is not worried about the man's table, after all, his father is a cadre, and he is usually very calm, although Li Fengru is a high-ranking cadre, but his father is neither humble nor arrogant, and he is not stage frightened at all.
Li Fengru was very satisfied with the Wang family, and Wang Ji'an, as the deputy commander of the military division, personally came to the door, which can be regarded as giving the Li family a lot of face. Look at Wang Xiangke again, although he is silent, he acts squarely and moderately, which is also very much to his taste.
Although the Wang family is lower than himself, he doesn't attach much importance to this in his mind, he is also a farmer, and before he became a member of the People's Liberation Army, he was still a Taoist priest.
Besides, this Yongliang that his granddaughter has taken a fancy to is indeed not good, not to mention that he has a lot of net worth at a young age, the key is that this child is not arrogant or impatient, he is young and old, and now he has entered the officialdom, pursuing the welfare of the people, not like some rich people's children, they will eat, drink and have fun. Just by virtue of this, I don't know how much stronger than those high-ranking disciples in the capital. In time, the future of this child is limitless.
Before the banquet, everyone discussed the marriage of Yongliang and Linlei in advance. The main thing is that the Wang family asks for the opinion of the Li family to see if there are any other requirements.
Li Fengru said: "The marriage is simple, they finish the wedding in their hometown, and then come to the capital to call their relatives and friends to set up two tables, and don't want any other red tape." ”
There is no opinion on both sides of this arrangement, and Yongliang is even more reluctant to trouble, and welcomes this article with both hands.
Seeing that the matter had been negotiated, Qi Guangrong took out a red envelope from his body, handed it to Wang Chunyu's hand, and said, "In-laws, according to the customs of our hometown, we have to give a bride price." Now these are saved, but this red envelope can't be saved, and the money is not much, so I want a good mouthpiece. ”
Wang Jiayu didn't know that there was such a custom, and he didn't know what to do for a while.
Wang Xiangsui said with a smile: "In-laws, there are 10,000 and 7 yuan here, which means that you can pick a wife for thousands of miles!"
"Oh, it turns out that there is still this talk, then I'll take it!" Wang Jiayu accepted it briskly.
Neither of them is short of money, this money is nothing, the key is to have a good mouthpiece.
The marriage of the two children was almost discussed, and Li Fengru ordered the banquet to be held.
The atmosphere during the banquet was very good, originally the Wang family came to meet politely, and besides, a new family like this is the time when they don't have to do anything, so they all say auspicious words, say nice words, and the natural atmosphere is good.
In fact, this kind of false politeness also makes people feel very tired.
