Chapter 45: The Banquet Begins
"Daddy" Li Yun couldn't help but throw himself into Li Yang's arms.
"Good, my son," the two of them cried.
"Good, Yu'er, come here" Li Yang wiped his tears, walked to the cabinet, and beckoned to Li Yuan.
"Dad, what's wrong?" Li Qing wiped his tears and walked over.
Li Yang took out a small cloth bag from the cabinet and handed it to Li Yuan.
Li Yun took the cloth bag, a little puzzled.
Looking at Li Yuan's puzzled eyes, Li Yang smiled slightly, "You can open it and take a look."
"Hmm"
Li Yuan gently opened the cloth bag, and there were a few pieces of broken silver inside.
"Daddy, this?" Li Yun was a little frightened.
He had never seen so much silver in all these years.
"Yu'er, you take it, you brother, after getting married, you always have to have some private money, this is what I have saved with your father for so many years, your eldest brother is also going to prepare for marriage, don't be too little" Big Daddy's eyes couldn't help but turn red again.
"Dad, I don't need it, I don't need it" Li Yun shook his head and put the cloth bag into Li Yang's hand.
"Silly boy, you're so stupid, take it, take it, I can only do this for you, and you have to walk the rest of the way......"
Everyone in Li Yuanshan's family had no sleep all night.
And Li Qing had a good night's dream.
In the early morning, the roosters have just crowed.
Li Yuanshan's courtyard was already full of people.
"Lizheng, congratulations"
"Lizheng, congratulations, little courtesy, don't be too little"
"Lizheng ......"
Li Yuanshan stood outside the house and brought the people from the village who came to eat and drink into the courtyard one by one and sat down.
"Daddy, how's it going, are you done?" At this time, Li Qing was outside Li Yuan's room.
And inside the house are big daddy, Li Guoxiu and the matchmaker.
"It's almost okay, it's almost okay, don't worry" Li Yang was very happy, and the corners of his mouth kept smiling.
"Can I come in?" Li Qing waited impatiently outside the house.
Li Qing, who has never seen the ancient "groom", is actually a little excited in his heart.
"Okay, okay, come in," Li Yang looked at his son.
I saw that he was already fully dressed.
opened the door and let Li Qing in.
As soon as Li Qing entered the room, he saw red eyes.
And who is sitting in front of the dressing table, who is it not Li Yuan?
"Xiaoyuan, you are so beautiful today" Li Qing praised from the heart.
It is said that "the day my brother got married was the most beautiful"
"Thank you, cousin," Li Yun smiled shyly.
"Okay, okay, you two don't talk, matchmaker, I'm sorry for you" Li Yang interrupted the two of them and pulled Li Qing out.
"Daddy, what are you pulling me for?" Li Qing was still very reluctant when he was dragged out of the house.
"You, Li Gu, they're coming over soon, why are you still staying in the house!" Big Daddy looked at Li Qing with some discouragement.
This kid, I told him yesterday that he didn't listen to it.
"Oh~ I know" Li Qing nodded, and walked out of the house with Big Daddy.
As soon as Li Qing arrived in the courtyard, he saw groups of people gathering together to talk.
There are also quite a few familiar faces among them.
And the chef invited by the uncle has also been busy from the morning to the present.
The food in the pot has already wafted out bursts of aroma.
As soon as Li Qing and Big Daddy walked to the gate of the courtyard, the sound of firecrackers crackled.
Li Qing and Li Yang glanced at each other and "came"
On the road outside the courtyard, a bunch of people came over.
It's all red.
Walking in the first place is the protagonist of today's family affairs - Li Gu
Li Qing looked Li Gu up and down
looks OK, a typical peasant man's image, his face is very hard, his eyes are bright, his height is about one meter eight, and his figure is also very sturdy, not bad!
Li Qing rated this cousin-in-law in his heart.
As for the character, Li Qing said that he had to take a look at it.
"Daddy, daddy, I'm here" Li Gu walked in front of Li Yuanshan and made a big gift.
"Okay, okay, come in" Li Yuanshan stretched out his hand to help Li Gu up.
"Eh," Li Gu responded.
nodded at Li Qing who was standing next to him, and said hello.
Li Qing also nodded in return.
"The groom has arrived, please come out~" The matchmaker shouted, and everyone in the village looked over here.
"Yo, this Li Erniu doesn't usually look very good, but today he looks quite energetic," said a brother in the village.
"That's it. People are in good spirits when they are happy," the man sitting next to him responded.
Li Yuan was helped out by Li Guoxiu.
Dressed in a red silk wedding dress, with a hollow phoenix bird pattern on his head, two silver hairpins on the left and right sides, and a pair of silk embroidered shoes of the same color at his feet.
With a little powder on the face and blush, it looks very energetic.
Li Guoxiu took Li Yun and Li Gu to the main house.
After meeting the elders one by one.
It's time to invite the people of the village to dinner.
With the shouting of "walking vegetables".
Plates of dishes were served on the table, and the atmosphere in the courtyard reached its peak.
The banquet of the farmer is generally three major dishes: three meat, three cold dishes.
And what the uncle's family prepared is also the best in the village.
The three cold dishes are: cold pork ears, cold beef, and cold meat
The three hot dishes are: stir-fried shiitake mushrooms with lean meat, stir-fried lettuce with lean meat, and sweet roasted white.
The three main dishes are: braised pork, stewed rabbit meat, and roasted duck.
Each dish is served on large plates, and the portions are full.
One by one, the people in the village ate with their mouths full of oil.
Praise Li Yuanshan is righteous, generous, and bold!
Li Yuan and Li Gu toasted at the same table.
After a circle, the faces of both of them were dyed red.
And this is the result of the release of water by everyone.
Otherwise, these two would have to lie on their stomachs.
At this time, Li Qing pulled Daddy and whispered on the side, "Daddy, don't you add makeup before eating?" You've already finished eating, huh? ”
"You stupid boy, it's not that we add makeup before eating here, but before eating at Li Gu's house, Li Yuan adds makeup before going out." Li Yang poked Li Qing's head with his hand.
"Oh" Li Qing rubbed his head and nodded aggrievedly.
He doesn't know any of this, so how can he blame him?
"Okay, okay, go out, don't nest here, otherwise your uncle won't find us, and we should be in a hurry." Li Yang finished speaking.
Before Li Qing could reply, he went out with his clothes intended.
Li Qing: "......"
touched his nose and followed Li Yang's footsteps.
The feast in the courtyard had come to an end.
And it was almost nine o'clock in the morning.
And they were all fed and drunk, and they all gathered outside the door of the house.
After Li Yun and Li Gu finished toasting, they also walked into the house.
Uncle Li Yuanshan and Li Guoxiu sat in the first place, Daddy Li Yang sat on the left side, and Li Qing sat on the right.
Originally, Li Qing was not qualified to sit in this elder position, but there was no way, who called Li Qing to represent his dead father Li Yuanshui?
