There was a bookkeeper sitting at the door of Tian Chunsheng's yard, it was his second brother Tian Qiusheng, who was holding a brush to keep accounts at the door, Mrs. Zhao and Li Yuedi hurriedly took out the red envelope and handed it to Tian Qiusheng, and kept saying: "Congratulations!" ”

Tian Qiusheng took the red envelope with a smile on his face, and wrote down the names and number of favors of each person, which is very important, these favors will be returned in the future, so the amount of favors of each person must be noted clearly.

The hour is still early, the bride has not yet been brought in, there are many children in the village are waiting at the entrance of the village, waiting for the bride to beg for candy when she enters the village, Tian Sisi did not follow, she is watching those small workers in the courtyard of Tian Chunsheng's house with great interest, she likes to see people at work, and feels that life is so fulfilling.

Small workers are generally done by the same people who have not been out of three generations, men are responsible for holding vegetables, killing chickens and ducks, etc., women are washing dishes, washing vegetables, cutting vegetables, etc., Tian Chunsheng's daughter-in-law wine this time is very lively, deliberately killed a pig, and the chickens and ducks at home are also used, so the small workers are busy.

Tian Manmu and Jin Wanming are also doing small jobs, although he and Tian Qiusheng are not of the same clan for three generations, but because of the friendship of senior brothers, Tian Manmu and his wife are automatically doing small jobs, and their behavior also makes the villagers praise.

Mrs. Zhao brought a bowl of rice balls for Tian Sisi to eat, and the people of the city held a wedding banquet wine, and prepared a small snack rice balls before the dinner, so that the guests who came to celebrate could eat a bowl, Mrs. Zhao was worried that her granddaughter was hungry, so she brought a bowl to let her eat.

"Mother, I'm full." Tian Sisi lost his appetite when he saw that it was a sweet rice ball. It's just a piece of the old man's heart, and she still ate two of them.

Mrs. Zhao didn't force her, Tian Xinhua ate the remaining glutinous rice balls, Tian Xinhua nodded at Tian Sisi, he has become a recycling station, every time Ah Nan can't finish eating, he solves it, although he is disgusted, Tian Xinhua still eats very happily.

"The bride is coming, the bride is coming!"

The children at the entrance of the village rushed back, shouting happily as they ran. The innocent smiles of the children also added a strong festive color to the wedding banquet.

Tian Sisi pulled Tian Xinhua and squeezed to the front to see the bride. Hearing Mrs. Zhao say that the bride is very beautiful, she has long wanted to see it, and by the way, she also wants to see what the bride in the seventies looks like.

A Jiefang truck drove in slowly, and it was Tian Mantong who was driving. Tian Sisi happily beckoned to Tian Mantong. I didn't expect the uncle to pick up the bride too. Tian Mantong saw that it was his precious niece, and he also smiled and waved in response.

The truck was carrying the bride's dowry, and it seemed that the conditions of the bride's family were indeed good. As can be seen from the dowry, there are sewing machines, bicycles, chests of drawers, beds, and so on for the large items alone.

And the nine quilts are all new, and the people of the city must prepare nine quilts to marry their daughters, which means that the world is eternal, and some of the conditions are not good, at most one or two new quilts are purchased, and the remaining beds are old, everyone does this, and no one dislikes anyone.

The bride's nine new quilts are a big deal, the onlookers are all praised, the workers put the nine quilts in, and another quilt prepared by the man put together, the quilt prepared by the man is called the descendant quilt, together it is perfect.

Tian Sisi was dazzled and watched as the little worker carried down the dowry on the truck the same way, the toilet, kettle, pots and buckets were all very well prepared, and it was completely the furniture of a family.

This is also the custom of Suicheng, the dowry belongs to the woman's private property, so generally qualified people will do a grand dowry for their daughters, that is, they are worried that their daughters will be bullied by their in-laws and husbands when they arrive at their husband's house, so at least there is a dowry of their own to prepare for the future.

Of course, now because the family is poor, Yuequan Village has not seen such a complete dowry for many years, and the onlookers all let out exclamations, envious of the good fortune of Tian Chunsheng's family, but they didn't expect Tian Chunsheng's wooden lump to give birth to such a talented son, where did this come from!

There is also Zhong Fugao's tractor behind, and there are guests on the woman's side, which is the family sending team, because the bride's parents can't come, so they can send some relatives to send their relatives, and it is also the meaning of whether the groom's banquet is doing well in the examination school.

Tian Chunsheng's son Tian Pinggui was wearing a brand-new Zhongshan suit, wearing a big red flower on his chest, and with a happy face, he happily hugged the bride from the cab and carried it into the house.

The bride wears a red thin cotton jacket, which is also the custom of Suicheng, the bride is to wear a red cotton jacket when she gets married, and it is also a wedding banquet held by people in the city is generally held in a cool time, otherwise who can afford to wear a cotton jacket on a hot day!

However, later this custom was also canceled and replaced by white wedding dresses in the West, and not only red cotton jackets, but also many ancient customs slowly disappeared, which is a big pity.

After the bride came down, six beautiful concubines and six handsome groomsmen came down from the back of the truck, Tian Shouhua was also among them, he was also wearing a Mao suit, he was very handsome, and he was very eye-catching among the best men.

As soon as the six concubines got out of the car, some of the young men who had been waiting for a long time surrounded them like wolves, picked up the beautiful girls one by one, and took off the shoes of the concubines, which were going to come in handy, and the guests could take them to the bridegroom to knock on the bamboo poles, and the more shoes there were, the more things they would knock.

These young men who came forward were all relatively lively people in Yuequan Village, and whenever the village held a wedding wine, these people would go to make a fuss, bringing a festive and lively atmosphere to the wedding banquet, which was also what the main family was happy to see.

A few well-trained men quickly took off the girls' shoes, and laughed at the concubines rogues, and the people around them also joined in the fun, and the barefoot girls had to shyly let the men into the house with each other.

Whether it was the bride's relatives or the guests who were eating and drinking, they all smiled and watched the young men arguing with their concubines, as if they were happy to see this, and they didn't think that it was immoral for the eldest girl to be held by a man.

This is also the local wedding custom, on the day of the wedding banquet, the young men who come to eat the wedding wine can be unscrupulous to accompany the concubines, such as hugging, touching hands, kissing and even going too far.

Of course, there is a limit, and it will not really hurt the girl's innocence, but the scale is too large, and some thin-skinned girls must be unbearable, and there have been many young girls who have come to be concubines to cry before.

However, later this marriage custom was also canceled, and everyone was much more civilized with concubines, and they would not force the girl to do something, but the atmosphere of the wedding banquet was relatively light, which can be regarded as having advantages and disadvantages.
