Yi Huifen sat still, waiting for Yang Qitai to hold her "princess", very domineering. The bride shy wrapped her arms around the groom's neck, walked through the smoke-filled rice field in the midst of the commotion, and was carried to the new house in one breath.

Now I still can't hit the ground. The bridesmaid who wants to accompany the wedding brings a brand-new washbasin, and the two boys and girls of the man's family carry a basin of rice in front of the bride, which is called "washing the face", and it is also an important process of the wedding, meaning that the bride washes away the dust and bad luck on the road. The bride took the symbolic washing, and gave each of the children who served the water a red envelope.

Then you can get out of bed and go to see your parents. Before that, of course, there was also the box that came with the bridal, which was opened and put in the new house to dry, so that the relatives could all look at the dowry. As the saying goes, the money that "presses the bottom of the box" actually refers to the money pressed in the box that the bride carries with her when she gets married, which is the face of the woman's family.

The bride's box is not so easy to open, and the parents have to give a red envelope, commonly known as "unpacking money", to open the box and see the woman's dowry. Of course, the dowry belongs to the bride, but it is similar to the "dowry list" in ancient times, and the man's family must check and compare it after the marriage, otherwise it will not be clear at that time.

After unpacking, the bride will take out the shoes and socks she made for her in-laws and honor her parents. This is to show that the bride is capable and filial. …… It's still a red envelope here. Commonly known as "shoe money", then the husband and wife visit their parents together. Yang Laohan was alone, and he was impatient with these details, and when Yi Huifen took out his shoes, he took them and clamped them under his armpit, took out a big red envelope and stuffed it, and it was over. Yi Huifen paused for a moment, and hurriedly said, "Thank you, Dad!" ”

This can be regarded as a change of words, the usual parents should admonish, "live a good life" and the like, Yang Laohan agreed, saying, "It's all good!" "Take out another red envelope, this is a change of mouth fee. Although his face was as expressionless as ever, those who knew him well knew that he was in a good mood now, and his eyes were shining!

Can you not be happy? is different from the sadness of the Yi family's marriage, this is a major event imported by Tianding! It's a happy event for your children to become adults! In the future, he will be a man who stands up to the sky and the earth, and he is the pillar of the family. Yang Laohan also seemed to have unloaded a big stone in his heart, and the whole person was no longer gloomy before.

People are in good spirits on happy occasions, and during this time they are busy, everyone is worried that his newly recovered body will not be able to bear it. As a result, I don't know if I was so busy that I forgot the pain, or if I was in a good mood to change my condition, I only came back for half a month, and I went from being able to sit in a wheelchair to walking with crutches, and from crutches to limping walking. The relatives who came today saw Yang Laohan, except for walking slowly and one leg a little stiff, he was no different from a good person.

Thinking of the false alarm a year ago, everyone sighed. While lamenting the impermanence of life, he also congratulated him in unison on finally completing his task and raising so many filial and capable children. But no, if he hadn't had a daughter who was a doctor and was treated in time, and a capable son-in-law sent to a big city for surgery, how could he have recovered from a stroke in just over a month?

The countrymen are not particular, and there were not such good conditions in the past, if you have a stroke and lie in bed, it is the rhythm of waiting for death. If the children are filial, they can walk decently, but if they meet those white-eyed wolves, they will be so miserable that they can't see it, and they will starve to death in bed. So when Yang Laohan knew that he had a stroke, he was so desperate that he cried. Of course, now he won't admit it......

"Old Yang! You'll be blessed in the future! If you want me to say that you have to go all the way to see the legs, what are you doing? Isn't it nice to eat and drink in bed? Several old buddies chatted with Yang Laohan and teased him. You said that this old man has suffered all his life, and when he is old and sick, he can still take the train back and go to Dapuhai, which will attract more jealousy! You have to know how many of the old buddies in the countryside have walked out of the county?

"Come on! Don't stand and talk without backache, I'd rather go to the field to carry a burden than suffer that kind of sin! Yang Laohan scoffed, he had worked hard all his life, and he already knew that he was a hard worker. If he is allowed to eat at home and wait for death, it will be worse than death!

Today is the son of Daxi, and he is usually the busiest one. Now it's a good thing, they all say that they are not in good health, and the children have robbed them all. was supposed to entertain guests, but he was busy sitting here leisurely chatting with the old brothers. He was frustrated, then let go. The kids are older, it's time to let go!

After the bride enters the door, after the relatives and friends make a fuss about the new house for a while, the formal banquet begins. Relatives and elders sit down first, serve red eggs, refreshments, etc., which is called "eating egg tea", which is the custom of northern Hubei here. At this time, the newlyweds came over and were taken by the elders to let the bride recognize their relatives, and then the elders also had red envelopes. In the south, it is called "Ying Qian", and in some places it is called "Recognition of Relatives Money". In short, there is such a process.

The red envelope is received and can finally be served. The newcomers sit in the chair - but it doesn't work, they hardly have time to eat. Those who are wandering should toast and toast tea. I can only sneak something into my busy stomach to fill my stomach. Getting married is a physical job, and it's definitely no joke.

Wearing new leather shoes and a red cotton jacket, turning around in circles, Yi Huifen felt that her legs and stomach were cramping. Fortunately, Xiaobei knew that she didn't have time to eat just now, so she quietly brought a bowl of eggs before the banquet to let her and Qitai cushion their stomachs first, otherwise they would be tired and hungry now, and the whole bride would have been gone.

Fortunately, she didn't drink alcohol, but only made up the numbers with a glass of boiled water. In this way, she was drunk and swaying, not to mention Yang Qitai, who attracted all the attention?

However, at this time, the dead friends are not dead and poor, and Yi Huifen can't care so much. Except for the best man helping to stall a little wine, she can't help the others. Secretly returned to the new house under the cover of Xiaobei under the cover of urine, Yi Huifen took off her shoes with bared teeth and said while rubbing her feet, "I know how you don't wear good leather shoes, you wear the old cotton shoes I made all day long, they are not warm at all, and you are still awkward!" ”

Also cowhide shoes! I gritted my teeth because I got married, and it cost more than 20 yuan! She was so distressed that she didn't wear it, and she just put on her feet for the first time today, and her feet hurt for a while. Yi Huifen said hatefully, "Could it be that I bought fake shoes?" ”

Yang Xiaobei couldn't laugh. My poor old mother, don't you know that leather shoes have to be worn for a while before they fit? Besides, she usually doesn't have the habit of wearing leather shoes, so it's no wonder that her feet don't hurt when she changes from soft and comfortable cloth shoes to hard leather shoes!

Smile and laugh, the dignity of the bride still has to be maintained! Yang Xiaobei brought a basin of hot water, asked her mother to scald her feet first, and then took the leather shoes to the stove to roast - she is not like her mother who feels sorry for her shoes, anyway, the cowhide will be softer when it is hot, as for whether it will affect the life of the shoes? Whatever? Let's take a look at the present!
