Chapter 126: Friend's Wedding

In the evening, Yang Qianxun and Xiaofan sat in the living room chatting, watching TV and eating snacks, and Yan Hong and Chen Mingxuan didn't know what to do in the room. Xiao Fan asked Yang Qianxun: "How do I feel that you don't seem to be as cheerful as before when you meet this time?" ”

"Really? I'm afraid that you don't know strangers, and here, I don't know anyone else except you, so I won't talk much. ”

"How's your business doing in Qinghai?"

"You'll get married the day after tomorrow, can we not talk about me first, there will be time in the future. In short, everything is fine with me, as for Qinghai, I am not going to go back, after attending your wedding, I will go back to Shenzhen. ”

At this time, Chen Mingxuan opened the door and asked, "Qianxun, have you booked a ticket back to Shenzhen?" I've just seen it, and the discount for booking tickets in advance is very low. ”

"Really? How much off? ”

"Three folds, a few hundred yuan, and the price of a train soft sleeper ticket, I'll book the ticket now, can I book it for you?"

"Okay, I'll give you my ID card, how much money, I'll give it to you together." As he spoke, Yang Qianxun stood up, walked into the room where he lived, took his wallet and walked out again.

Chen Mingxuan said with a smile: "Give me the ID card first, and the money will be talked about later." After saying that, he took his ID card and shrank back into his room.

Xiaofan called Yang Qianxun at this time: "I almost forgot to tell you, Yan Hong's parents and my parents both want us to hold a grand old-style wedding, that is, we used to take a big red sedan chair, but now we have changed to take a car to pick up relatives, and the others are the same as Chinese old-fashioned weddings, Yan Hong went to my house to pick up relatives, went to his house to worship the church, and then held a big feast, of course, the banquet was in the hotel." So I'm going back to my house tomorrow night, waiting for Yan Hong to pick me up before I can come back here, will you go with me? ”

"Of course, I'm going to get involved in your local wedding, and I'll be able to sell it for some money when I go back." Yang Qianxun smiled and said, "So, from tomorrow onwards, I will stay with you and follow you." ”

At this time, Chen Mingxuan poked his head out of the room and said, "I booked a ticket for January 3rd, can I?" ”

"Yes, of course. Give you the money now, right? "Yang Qianxun doesn't want to owe people a debt.

"I'll talk about it later, I just did a little favor, and I'll ask you for money right away, how embarrassed!"

Yang Qianxun looked at Chen Mingxuan, who was still at the door, and then nodded: "Okay, I'll give it later." ”

He turned his head again and said to Xiao Fan, who was sitting next to him: "I came to you from a friend in Shanghai, and I don't know what to give as a wedding gift, so I just give you some cash, and buy whatever you need" Saying that, he stood up again, walked back to the room, took out a red envelope that had been prepared a long time ago from his bag, took it and sat on the sofa, and handed it to Xiao Fan, "I won't wait for your wedding day, send it in advance." ”

Xiao Fan excused himself and said: "I said it, as long as you come, it will be the biggest gift for us, and you don't need to send any more money." ”

"Good friends get married, why should I be funny?"

"There's a lot of money!" Xiaofan still took the red envelope and jokingly said to Yang Qianxun.

"You feel very thick, but it's actually all pieces of money." Yang Qianxun said deliberately seriously.

"Anyway, thank you Chihiro!" Xiaofan sincerely thanked her.

Putting down the red envelope, Xiao Fan asked her in a low voice, "How are you and Li Hao?" When to get married? We'll go too. ”

Yang Qianxun sighed in his heart, and his face was also clouded, "We, maybe we are going to break, right?" It should be said that it has been divided. ”

Xiao Fan said in surprise: "Why? Haven't you guys been good? Chihiro, don't think I'm talkative, I shouldn't say that now that you're separated, but, I've always thought that you are the most suitable pair, how good Li Hao is to you! ”

"Am I treating him badly? But if you are good to each other, you will definitely be able to come together? The world is unpredictable, if we have been in Shenzhen, maybe we will be married. Yang Qianxun leaned back on the sofa sadly and said, "Let's not talk about this, let's talk about it later, okay?" ”

Xiao Fan looked at his good friend, "I can see that you are sad, but Chihiro, since you are divided, take good care of yourself, don't keep thinking about the past." ”

"I'm not sad, it's your wedding day in two days, don't you think I'm happy?" Saying this, a big smile bloomed on Yang Qianxun's face, but in Xiao Fan's eyes, there was always a little reluctance.

In the afternoon of the next day, Xiao Fan packed his things, Yang Qianxun also took his luggage, got into the red Citroen they had newly bought, and Yan Hong sent them to Xiao Fan's house. After more than ten minutes of twisting and turning, he stopped the car in front of a small courtyard in a small village, and before he got out of the car, Xiaofan said: "My house is very small and broken, don't dislike it." ”

Yang Qianxun smiled and said, "Yan Hong doesn't dislike it, what do I have to dislike?" As he spoke, he got out of the car and went to the trunk and waited for Yan Hong to open the lid and take the luggage.

Yan Hong also got out of the car, and said while lifting the lid of the back box and holding the luggage outside: "How can I be so superficial? ”

The three of them entered the courtyard of Xiao Fan's house with their luggage, and a middle-aged woman with kind eyebrows and simple clothes greeted them out of the door, Yang Qianxun thought that this should be Xiao Fan's mother. "Mom, I'm back. This is a good friend of mine from when I was in Guangdong, and I came to attend our wedding. ”

He said to Yang Qianxun again: "This is my mother." ”

Yang Qianxun hurriedly greeted politely: "Hello Auntie!" ”

"Okay, okay, friends from Guangdong, I've come all the way here, I've worked hard for you." Xiaofan's mother said with a smile. Then he said to Yan Hong, who was walking last: "Xiao Yan sent you over, let's go into the house together." ”

Although Xiaofan's home is an ordinary house, except for a TV, there is no modern furniture in the room, but it is spotless, clean and tidy, Yang Qianxun sat on a wooden chair, looked at this cottage, and remembered his home, but also under the mother's diligent tidying, the home is well organized, clean and bright, and every time I go home, I have a warm feeling. So he smiled and said, "Uncle and aunt, your home is really clean, and there is a sense of warmth in living in such a house!" ”

Xiaofan's father said: "The girl laughed, our family is not rich, and I have wronged you by living here." ”

"Where? Xiaofan and I are like sisters, we can't talk about grievances, and I like your family very much, I think of my family in your home, and I feel very kind! ”

At noon on the first day of the first month, the procession arrives quickly, and according to local custom, the parting bride must give tea to her parents before leaving the house. Xiao Fan was wearing a red wedding dress, picked up a cup of tea from the plate held by Yang Qianxun, and handed it to his father first: "Dad, please drink tea." ”

The old father took the tea with a trembling hand and glanced at Xiao Fan, which was meaningful, but he didn't say a word, and drank the tea in the cup in one gulp. Xiaofan took the empty cup, picked up another cup of tea and handed it to his mother: "Mom, please drink tea." ”

Tears welled up in the old mother's kind eyes, she raised her hand to wipe it first, and then choked up and said, "Your sister has been away from home for four or five years, and now you are leaving again, my mother is reluctant!" Xiaofan, when you arrive at your in-laws' house, you must honor your in-laws, live a good life with Xiao Yan, don't let us worry, remember? ”

Xiao Fan also cried and said, "Mom, I remember, you drink tea." ”

At this time, Xiaofan's mother picked up the cup and took a small sip symbolically. Yang Qianxun on the side couldn't see others crying, and when she saw the emotional scene of the mother and daughter, the tears in her eyes were like beads with broken threads, falling constantly. Hold the plate with one hand, wipe your tears with the other, and secretly scold yourself for being too unproductive, seeing that the mother and daughter are not as ugly as crying! As soon as Xiao Fan put the water cup on the plate, she immediately left this touching scene with the plate and hid aside to calm her mood.

At this time, there was already a knock on the door outside, Xiaofan's sister, and other sisters in the same village were guarding the door, ready to extort more red envelopes from the groom. Xiaofan's mother stood up and wiped the tears from Xiaofan's face, "Good boy, I'm about to get in the car, don't put on makeup and cry, it's not beautiful." ”

Yang Qianxun also went over, holding Xiaofan's arm, and tried to smile at her. At this time, the gate was still noisy, and the door was not opened, Yang Qianxun looked outside, a little curious, and then Xiaofan's little nephew happily held two red envelopes and ran into the door: "Grandpa, you see, the people outside are stuffed in through the crack in the door, red envelopes!" ”

Xiaofan's father smiled lovingly and said, "Okay, go tell your mother, it's time to open the door, don't make trouble." ”

"Yes!" The little one said yes and ran out again.

After another four or five minutes, I heard the sound of gongs, drums and firecrackers outside, and the people at the gate also poured back into the room. At this time, a woman screamed, "Where is the bridegroom?" Where is the bridegroom? ”

Yang Qianxun and Xiaofan were also squeezed to stand against the wall, constantly searching for Yan Hong's figure in the crowd. A voice sounded outside the door: "I'm here, I can't get in, please make way for me, right?" ”

There was a burst of laughter from the crowd, and the sharp female voice shouted again: "Everyone, let's let go, it's not you who marry a daughter-in-law, why are you running so fast?" and the bridegroom and the officials were kept out of them. ”

In the process of pushing and pushing, the crowd automatically made way of a path for only one person to walk, Yan Hong walked into the door in the laughter and attention of everyone, and walked in front of Xiao Fan, looking at Xiao Fan, Yan Hong could not hide the happiness in his eyes, and said gently: "Xiao Fan, I'm here to pick you up." ”

He said to Xiao Fan's parents, who were standing on the edge of the wall, "Dad, Mom, I will take Xiao Fan away, you two don't worry, I will treat her well." ”

Xiaofan's father nodded, "You have to promise to treat us Xiaofan well and not bully her!" ”

Xiao Fan's mother said: "Xiao Fan, don't forget what I just said, live a good life." Looking at the expressions of the two old men and listening to their advice to their daughter, Yang Qianxun felt that his tears were about to flow out excitedly.

Xiao Fan and Yan Hong both kept nodding, Yan Hong dragged Xiao Fan's hand and walked out of the door, slowly walking out of the newlywed road that could be passed by one person, spontaneously formed by the crowd, and the crowd behind also followed out. Yang Qianxun asked Xiaofan's parents: "Uncle and aunt, don't you go to Yan Hong's house?" ”

"We went straight to the hotel and didn't go to their house. You go with Xiaofan, come with her to the hotel, and help me take care of her. Xiaofan's mother said.

Yang Qianxun nodded and chased out, and saw Xiao Fan waving to her on the float in front, Yang Qianxun walked over, Xiao Fan said, "Qianxun, you and we take a car, you sit in front." ”

Yang Qianxun was a little embarrassed and said, "Isn't this okay?" I'll sit in the back car. ”

Yan Hong said: "It's okay, you just sit in the front." ”

Yang Qianxun looked at the convoy behind him, he didn't know which car to go to, and he was quite hesitant, so he was no longer polite and sat in the co-pilot seat in front of them.

The car set off and slowly traveled on the country road, obviously ten minutes away, and walked for more than half an hour before arriving at the county seat, not going to the small villa of the two, but going to Yan Hong's parents' house.

After getting out of the car, Yang Qianxun walked to Xiao Fan's side, wrapped her arm, looked at her with a smile, Xiao Fan said: "Qianxun, I'm very nervous, my heart is beating faster!" ”

"Nervous about what? All the etiquette is arranged, you just have to do it, as long as you don't make mistakes, it's fine. Yang Qianxun comforted her.

"I'm just afraid of making mistakes! It's a shame to make mistakes. Xiao Fan was even more nervous.

Yan Hong turned around from the other side of the car, wrapped his other arm around Xiao Fan, and said with a smile: "What are you afraid of, anyway, when you enter the door, you are my daughter-in-law, with me, don't be afraid." ”

Surrounded by a lively crowd, the three of them walked into the gate of Yan's house, and in the main hall, Yan Hong's grandparents and parents should be sitting. Yang Qianxun saw that there were two worship mats wrapped in big red cloth on the ground, so he pestered Xiao Fan to a worship mat, let go of his hand, stood aside, and looked at the rather ancient worship ceremony held in this new century with a curious mentality.

A tall, middle-aged man dressed in oily hair and pink face stood up straight and shouted, "The bride and groom are ready to worship, kneel!" ”

Yan Hong and Xiao Fan obediently knelt on the worship mat.

"Worship heaven and earth." Under the command of one person next to them, the two of them turned around three hundred and sixty degrees and bowed to the door.

"Second worship high hall!"

Under the command of the man next to them, the two turned around and bowed down to the two old men sitting in the main hall.

"Husband and wife worship each other!"

The two turned to face each other again and bowed to each other.

"Licheng!"

When Yang Qianxun heard this, he immediately stepped forward to pull Xiaofan and entered a room with Yan Hong. After sitting down, Yang Qianxun asked Yan Hong: "Is this okay?" ”

"It's okay, dinner has been booked in the hotel, just go out to eat."

Yang Qianxun said a little disappointed: "I'm still waiting for what else to see next!" It's just gone? ”

Xiao Fan instead let out a breath and said, "I'm nervous to death, but fortunately it's gone." ”

"It's not the same as the ancient marriage ceremony you see on TV, it's much simpler!" Yang Qianxun said, pointing at Xiao Fan: "Look, you don't have to wear a red hijab." In ancient times, the wedding bride couldn't eat for a day, so you should be able to eat, maybe you have to toast at night? Also, isn't it played by Zhu Gege, do you still have to hold an apple in your hand when you get on the sedan chair? Of course, you're in a car, so you don't have an apple. ”

Yang Qianxun talked about the past and the present, and after making jokes, Xiaofan finally calmed down. Yan Hong said: "There is a TV in the room, you watch TV, you don't have to go out, I'll go out to see." After saying that, he walked out of the room and went to deal with the people and things outside.
