Chapter 666: One child and two are just right
Chen Guan is so old, it is the first time to participate in the greeting, let alone be the head of the greeting?
Chen Guan's grandfather and brothers are only Chen Deda left, Chen Xuezhi and Chen Guan are both in the same lineage, Chen Guan doesn't even have a cousin, and Chen Guan naturally has no chance to practice this kind of work, which is mainly done by close relatives of his own family.
Not to mention welcoming relatives, even the matter of sending relatives, Chen Guan has never had his turn. The old Chen family has no daughters for several generations, and there are few relatives themselves, Zheng Yulian is an only daughter, there are no brothers and sisters, and the people who send relatives are also close relatives to go, Chen Guan didn't even have the opportunity to send relatives to earn a happy money when he was a child.
Li Fulai can let Chen Guan be the head of the greeting family, to be honest, it really gave Chen Guan a chance.
Li Fulai is really playing big.
Since the liberation, customs have changed, and the Wulongshan District has been married to a daughter-in-law and a daughter-in-law, all on foot. In the past, the things of carrying sedan chairs, riding horses, and riding mules to marry daughters-in-law have all been submerged in the memories of the elderly.
This time, Li Fulai used a car to welcome his relatives, three Santana 2000s, six vans, and a tool truck for firing guns and moving dowries, a total of 10 cars, which means perfect. It can be regarded as the first one in Wulongshan District! It was the old branch secretary Xu Zhonghou who married his daughter a few years ago, and the welcoming team from Longwan Town only drove two Nanjing Gasi trucks, which was not as good as Li Fulai's pomp today!
The people who greet the relatives are determined according to the rules of Wulongshan District, one matchmaker with his back, two cannons, four young men who carry dowries, two young aunts with both children and daughters, and the rest are Li Fulai's uncle and mother-in-law.
According to the rules of Wulong Mountain, the groom will not go when greeting the bride, and the groom's parents cannot go, so they will wait at home to greet them.
The pomp is so big, no wonder Li Fulai has no money!
It's all the fault of the TV, Li Fulai saw the wedding situation of the city people from the TV, and he was envious, and he also wanted to learn from the city people, and used the car to pick up his daughter-in-law instead!
Xiuqin's house is not far from Wulongyu in a straight line, only ten miles, but this is a mountainous area, and the actual distance is almost 30 miles.
There is no road to Xiuqin's house, it is a country road, and the car has run for less than 20 miles, so it has to stop, leaving the driver to wait in the car, Chen Guan followed Li Fulai's uncle, and led the greeting team towards Xiuqin's house.
Chen Xuezhi was also sent by Li Fulai to greet his relatives, and his position was that of a driver. He was afraid that his son had not participated in this kind of activity, so he was not at ease, so after parking the car, he followed the welcoming team.
It is not worth walking in the mountains, 10 miles of travel, more than an hour to arrive.
The two young men who fired the cannon fired the cannon in the village along the way, which means to tell the villagers that there is a happy event!
Walking and walking, Chen Xuezhi and his son came together, and said sullenly: "Guanzi, Fulaizi is married, and he will be a father next year!" ”
Chen Guan said "um" and didn't say anything.
Chen Xuezhi then came with another sentence: "Dad is old!" ”
Chen Xuezhi's meaning couldn't be clearer, it was touching the scene and urging his son to get married early!
Chen Guan did not answer.
Chen Xuezhi sighed, stopped talking, and walked silently behind his son.
The village where Xiuqin's family is located is not big, and there are probably only about 20 households.
Compared with marrying a daughter-in-law, marrying a girl is a little simpler. However, now that Wulongyu Village is famous, Li Fulai's fame is also great, and the relatives of Xiuqin's family feel that their daughter has married into a good family and has fallen into the nest of blessings, so they all rushed to congratulate and help.
In fact, Xiuqin's mother is not a fool as Li Fu said, but a rural woman who looks very simple and capable. The reason why Li Fulai asked for a bride price of 10,000 yuan is not that Bai Aiyue said that he sold his daughter, nor did Li Fulai say that he would give her son a daughter-in-law in the future, but that the customs in the countryside are like this now, it is becoming more and more difficult to marry a daughter-in-law, and the bride price is getting higher and higher. In addition, this year's Wulongyu is famous, Li Fulai is the leader of the Wulongyu group, the director of Wulongyu Tourism Development Co., Ltd., and the secretary of the board of directors, and he is already a figure in Wulongshan District, Xiuqin's family does not know how much Li Fulai spent on building, decorating, and purchasing furniture, and only thought that Li Fulai's family was working in the scenic spot to earn wages, as well as dividends, and was very rich, so they asked for a bride price of 10,000 yuan.
This 10,000 yuan bride price is not the highest in Wulong Mountain District.
The strange circle is like this, the poorer the place, the more difficult it is to marry a daughter-in-law, and the higher the bride price!
Originally, Chen Guan thought that the Xiuqin family would embarrass them, but in fact, he didn't embarrass them at all, and it was also in accordance with the customs of Wulong Mountain, with four cold, four hot, eight dishes, and wine, to entertain the welcoming team.
Think about it, Chen Guan, the most famous, prestigious, and outstanding person in Wulong Mountain, personally led a team to greet the bride, how much face does the bride's family have? If the Xiuqin family wants to be embarrassed again, it will be unreasonable!
After the matchmaker handed over the four-color gift and bride price money to the woman's manager, the woman began to assemble the family delivery procession.
When Chen Guan finished eating, the guns began to be fired. Then, with the help of the woman's relatives, the four young men who carried the dowry began to move the dowry. That is, a large cabinet, a writing desk, a dresser, and eight quilts.
This dowry, in Wulong Mountain, is not the best, but it is definitely not bad.
Chen Guan thought, find a chance to teach Li Fulai a good lesson, don't open your mouth and shut up and say that Xiuqin is her stepmother, others have done a good enough!
With the sound of three sedan cannons, Xiuqin came out with the support of her aunt, walked to the door and stood still, and the two Yinggu hurriedly took out the sedan chair seal, that is, the red envelope of the sedan chair, and stuffed it into Xiuqin's pocket, Xiuqin followed with a twist.
For a while, the sound of firecrackers was loud.
Chen Xuezhi was afraid that his son would not know, so he nagged beside Chen Guan, on the day of the wedding, the bride combed her hair with a comb seal, washed her face with a face seal, went out with a door seal, got a sedan chair seal, and crossed the bridge and crossed the river. When I arrived at my mother-in-law's house, my mother-in-law had to wait at the door of the sedan chair and give the bride a sedan envelope. After entering the new house, the rules changed, and the groom's sister was generally the groom's sister who served dumplings and water to the bride, and the bride had to give the sister-in-law a seal.
In the end, Chen Xuezhi said: "Your mother has already prepared all kinds of seals, just waiting for you to use them when you and Mingyue get married!" ”
Chen Guan had a smile on his face, but he didn't answer his father's words!
It's not that Chen Xuezhi is verbose, but Chen Xuezhi saw that Bai Aiyue dared to stay in the county seat in front of him yesterday, and he was a little scared, afraid that the Bai family sisters would mess up their son's love. The bright moon is so beautiful, and she is the host of the provincial station, and she can rub sand in her eyes? If she knew that her son and the Bai family sisters were secretly getting along, wouldn't she kick her son?
Chen Xuezhi can't wait to let his son marry Tantai Mingyue when he goes back tomorrow, and he will be relieved as soon as he gets married, just wait to hold his grandson. It's a pity that he can't be his son's home, he can't be his son's master, his son doesn't answer, Chen Xuezhi has no temper at all!
Chen Guan can be regarded as an eye-opener along the way, the team to send relatives will automatically stop when they meet the river and bridge, and wait for the girls to take out the seal for the bride before leaving.
The funniest thing is that when I passed through a village, the villagers tied a rope to two trees on both sides of the road, which was kind of a stop.
Li Fulai's uncle had no choice but to take out cigarettes and red envelopes, and then let the cigarettes and red envelopes, and then the villagers untied the rope and let them go.
Chen Xuezhi told Chen Guan that this is all a custom, the picture is festive, in fact, the red envelope is only five cents, which is not worth anything, that is, let the villagers of ten miles and eight towns be happy and say a few words of blessing to each other!
There is also a village that is also very typical, that is, a bench was put in the middle of the road, not even a figure was seen, and as soon as the cannon was fired, the people ran out of the village, saying congratulations and congratulations, taking the cigarettes and red envelopes handed by Uncle Li Fulai, and moving the stool to the side, saying that the bride was married to Wulongyu, which can be regarded as a good place to marry. I heard that the daughter-in-law of the old Chen family in Wulongyu is the most beautiful Lantai Mingyue on the provincial TV station, and I don't know when I will get married. If Guanzi also holds a wedding in Wulongyu, he will invite a few chefs, and the villagers will want to see what the real person looks like in Mingyue.
A villager said on the side that the feng shui of Wulongyu has improved over the years, and the characters have been cleared. Chen Guan of the old Chen family can solve big cases at a young age, when he is the secretary of the township party committee and the director of the public security bureau, the daughters of the old Bai family also eat public meals, and the groom official Li Fulai is also very powerful, and he will become the director of Wulongyu Tourism Development Co., Ltd. at a young age, maybe he will follow Guanzi to make a big deal in the future!
These people don't know Chen Guan, Chen Guan is standing in the crowd!
Anyway, the words of the villagers made the people who sent their relatives feel very comfortable when they heard it, and they knew that their daughter was really married to the right person!
The road is too far, although there are cars waiting halfway, when I return to Wulongyu, it is almost 12 o'clock.
Wulongshan custom, the bride must be taken home before 12 o'clock, otherwise, it will be unlucky.
Maybe this is also the fundamental reason why Li Fulai is so expensive and has to use a car to pick up the bride, and it is not exactly a burning bag!
After the new daughter-in-law came back, Li Fulai's parents stood in front of the car to greet her, Chen watched clearly, Li Fulai's mother stuffed Xiuqin with a big red envelope, and Xiuqin got out of the car.
After returning to the courtyard of Li Fulai's house, he hung a red cloth on the wall in the middle of the courtyard, with the word "happiness" pasted on it, which was regarded as a place for holding a wedding.
The master of ceremonies is Lin Fan, general manager of Wulongyu Tourism Development Co., Ltd., and the officiant is Hou Huaxin, the current village party secretary of Wulong Village and deputy director of the Party and Government Office of Longwan Town, and the witness is Chen Xuezhi.
Chen Guan thought that there was nothing wrong with him, but he didn't expect that after the officiant and the witnesses finished speaking, the emcee Lin Fan said loudly: "Next, Comrade Chen Guan, the groom's official, the first-class heroic model of the Ministry of Public Security, the secretary of the Zhouli Township Party Committee and the deputy director of the County Public Security Bureau, will speak!" ”
Fainted, this is Li Fulai's marriage, and it's not a meeting, let Chen Guan say something!
The applause of the villagers was so warm, Chen Guan had to stand in front and speak, the central meaning was to congratulate Li Fulai on his newlywed happiness and bless the operation of Wulongyu Tourist Attraction better and better. However, at the end of the talk, Chen Guan said a sentence that made the people of Wulongyu remember: "Give the bride and groom a glorious task, that is, not to give birth to more or less, one child and two are just right!" ”
