As he spoke, the sixteenth day of the lunar month arrived.

Like most families, Tian Damu used a bicycle to carry his bride, Li Huandi. Because the alley is narrow, and there are onlookers, they get off the bicycle at the mouth of the alley. What new daughter-in-law does not step on the ground when she enters the door, it has become a luxury in this period.

Li Huandi was wearing a new red dress and red pants, combing a red hair rope. There is no red hijab, and the big oily braids sparkle in the sun's rays.

The ritual of entering the door is also very simple, just a small whip is placed at the door. What kind of brazier, stepping on rice cakes, scattering flowers or something, at that time had been cut down as the four olds, and the wealthy families were still secretly doing it.

The worship is also the four olds, but this person is full of dissatisfaction, and they are all blatantly carrying it out.

Poor people who worship little money. Hao Lanxin is a sister-in-law, and each of them took a piece; Tian Dongmei is the elder sister, and she is a big person who worships money, and she took two yuan; Tian Damu's grandmother's family also has an uncle and a second concubine, who also came, the eldest uncle took two pieces, and the second concubine took a piece of six; Tian Yin's family, Tian Li's family, and Tian Wei's concubines are uncles, aunts, and aunts, and each took a piece. Uncles and sisters-in-law, such as Zhu Xiulan and Li Jinping, each took six cents.

The people of the farther branch did not come to eat, so each family paid two cents, bought a piece of cloth, and then wrote the name of each family, but also received a few pieces. It seems that although Tian Lu's is anti-accountable and soft and hard to bulli, Tian Jinhe is an outsider, and his popularity outside is okay.

Lunch was made at Tian Dalin's house. One pot stove was not enough, and a big pot was built in Dongxiazi to make big pot dishes and hot steamed buns.

In order to facilitate entry and exit, the back door on the back wall of the west wing of the old courtyard was also opened. In this way, the two courtyards become a separate courtyard, and it is very convenient to come and go.

Tian Lu's family came a lot, and there were more than 20 children and children.

It turned out that Tian Lu had two older brothers and a younger brother, although now there is an elder brother and a widowed sister-in-law. There are more than ten nieces and nephews, all of whom are over 30 years old.

When the old daughter's daughter gets married, she has to take money and gift money. The gift money is very small, and the family is a dime. The money is only taken by the old people and cousins and sisters-in-law. So, the children of every family came. Life is difficult, and being able to rub one more person's food is counted as a person, and if you don't eat for nothing, you won't eat for nothing, and you won't save yourself if you eat.

Tian Dongyun didn't come, so he asked Xue Yunlai to bring Xue Ailing and Xue Aimei here. The two people's worship money was paid by Tian Lu's family.

The people in this courtyard are all on Tian Dalin's side. Six tables were set. The mother's family of the new relatives and Tian Lu were all in the old courtyard and set up three tables.

There are ten dishes on each table, most of which are vegetarian, and the salad alone accounts for half of them. Originally, life in the countryside was hard, although this banquet was barely a table, but most of them were like this, so it didn't look shabby.

In the wine and food, Ueda Qingqing didn't care: the past is a thing. As the saying goes, eating, dressing, and taking care of the belongings, the foundation is already thin, and if it is out of line, it makes people suspect that it is not.

Since Tian Dalin warmed the pot, the customs in Tianjiazhuang have changed: women also serve the table, although they do not drink alcohol, the dishes must be prepared. Otherwise, the men drank and ate, and the women would have to walk the walls and bask in the sun, waiting for the men to finish drinking and then eat together.

Last year, the warm pot was also in winter, and it was also in this courtyard that these tables were also these people, almost all of them, but the grade was not half a star. This has also become a topic of conversation at the wine table.

However, despite the lack of oil and water, people still eat with relish.

Because of the large number of people, none of Tian Qingqing and their brothers and sisters were on the table. The little sisters of the Xue family and the people who came over Shun and Guo Xinsui also left after a few bites. Come over and say: "The dishes at the banquet are not as delicious as the dishes stir-fried in Qingqing." ”

A group of children went to the new house to see the new daughter-in-law.

Tian Qingqing was surprised by the Tian Lu family's maiden family who suddenly appeared. I don't usually see me moving, and my father Tian Dalin hasn't said anything about it once, why did such a big car come out all of a sudden. And they are all the closest people to Grandma Tian Lu's family. I took a few more looks.

The people of the Lu family sat at two tables. A table for men and a table for women. The male Arita Kanegawa and Tatsuki Tian were accompanied. Because the woman doesn't drink, no one comes. Occasionally, Tian Lu's came over to be polite and let them eat and drink well.

Tian Qingqing, the eating minister of the Lu family, really didn't dare to compliment. The men's table is more gentle because he is accompanied by people from his own family; The women's table is simply swept away by the wind. Originally, there was a large plate of candy, peanuts and melon seeds on a table for people to grab and eat. It's all in your pockets.

After finishing the loading on his table, he asked the man to come over, and after a while, he saw the bottom of the plate again. A middle-aged woman said to the servant, "Bring me another plate of candy and peanuts, and I'm done eating." "After the servant brought it, it was another rush.

The same goes for dishes, the last one coaxes the other. There weren't many oily vegetables, but in their mouths, they were like delicacies from the mountains and seas, and they ate so fragrantly.

Especially the second uncle and grandmother, who are in their sixties, still staring at the dishes on the table like children. Because of his bad teeth, when he saw which dish was suitable for him, he brought it to himself and ate it without lifting a chopstick.

When it was time to eat, the young women suddenly took out lunch boxes, small pots, and the like from their pockets, and began to distribute the leftovers that everyone was going to bring home.

The good ones are all rushed to eat, and the rest is a cold salad with little oil and water. They all rushed to put it in their homes.

Tian Qingqing was embarrassed. I thought to myself: there are no plastic bags at this time, and if they do, they will have to bring back even the soup.

There is such a habit in the countryside, as long as it is time to eat the noodles, every family will pack the leftovers back, because they can't eat all the leftovers for their own family. In this way, people who didn't come to the house can still eat two more meals, which is not in vain.

But these are the people who are close to the village. Lujiazhuang is eight or nine miles away from here, and Tian Qingqing has never heard of bringing things back like this.

It seems that the Su zhì of Tian Lu's mother's family is really not much!

When the people in the west courtyard were almost gone, Tian Qingqing called Tian Youqiu and Tian Youchun, led Tian Miaomiao, and each person in the kitchen served a bowl of vegetables, took a steamed bun, and went to the hall to eat.

"Yo, Qingqing, you haven't eaten yet, have you?" Tian Yin, who was pouring the bottom of the plate, saw it and asked embarrassedly.

"It's okay, grandma, you can pour it, let's just eat the dishes in the bowl." Tian Qingqing said, putting the bowl on the table that Tian Yin had cleaned up.

"Then I'm welcome, you won't eat other people's leftovers anyway." Tian Yin said, continuing to pour up.

Tian Yin didn't catch anything good this time, so he folded the bottom of the plate and left it upside down. Before going out, I went to the room and picked up a few steamed buns, which provoked Tian Dongmei to pout.

The work was not big, Tian Dalin's uncle came over with a red face, called Tian Dalin outside the gate, and said: "Third nephew, I heard about it at the end of this year, and you brothers are doing well." This time I came to take a look, and sure enough, it was so. You can't build this big house without four or five thousand, right? This is really rare in our rural areas! ”

Tian Dalin said with a smile: "Uncle, I won't tell you, I'm still pulling a famine." ”

"I don't know if you pull the famine or not." The old uncle glanced at Tian Dalin: "I heard that your family eats wheat flour steamed buns at a perennial price, and it is the best one in this bend." You also save your uncle. I've been sick for the past few years, and I haven't earned much work, so I've become an 'overspending' in the team. Will you lend me some wheat? Let me have a dumpling for the New Year. ”

Tian Dalin saw that he was pitiful, and he didn't think about it, and said, "Okay, I'll send you half a pocket in two days." The old man glared and said, "Farewell, it's winter, what are you running back and forth?" Today I borrowed the cattle cart from the team, so let's bring it back. The New Year is less than half a month away, and I have time to change noodles. ”

Tian Dalin nodded: "I'll tell my family and let her prepare it for you." ”

Tian Dalin came over and said to Hao Lanxin, Hao Lanxin said: "He and the second concubine came in a car. You gave it to your uncle, what should you do with the second concubine? Just two old men, it seems that we are far away, one is close, and the other is close. Why don't you send it to him tomorrow? ”

Tian Dalin pinched his teeth and said, "I have promised to let him take it back." ”

Tian Qingqing, who was eating on the side, heard this, remembered the gobbling of this second uncle and grandmother on the wine table, and knew that her life must be very poor, so she said: "Then give her half a pocket too." Dad's concubine is not an outsider. ”

Hao Lanxin smiled at Tian Qingqing and said, "I know that you are a little bodhisattva, and you can't be embarrassed to see it." Then he went out and got ready.

After the people from Lujiazhuang left, Tian Jinhe came over and said to Tian Dalin: "San'er, if you give him wheat, you are afraid that burning incense will attract little ghosts, and you can't get rid of it." Your uncle is a person who can't be provoked. ”

Tian Dalin rubbed his scalp and said, "I saw that he was pitiful, and I couldn't bear to refute him." ”

Tian Jinhe: "It's so close, why is there only a New Year's Festival?" It's because I want something. After more than six years of difficult life, when I saw that I had married a daughter-in-law, I thought how rich the family was, so I took my pocket and asked for food.

"The family has just finished working, where is the wealth? It is calculated that only by mixing half of the wild vegetables can you eat the returned grain. Despite this, your mother gave him a few liters of red sorghum in the brother-sister relationship.

A few days later, he came again with his pocket, saying that the house was broken. Your mother couldn't help it, so she gave him half a pocket of dried sweet potatoes.

He didn't even enter the house with dried sweet potatoes on his back, so he went to the city and exchanged it for corn, and three catties of dried sweet potatoes for one catty.

"I just happened to see this, and I came back and told it to your mother. Your mom is so angry. Later, I asked for it again, but I didn't give him ......" (to be continued) R1152
