Chapter Twenty-Four: The Night of Candles in the Cave Room

When Zhang Zhenyi woke up, it was already night, opened his eyes and looked slightly, only to find that he was already lying in his room, the familiar ceiling, the familiar curtains and tables, and even the smell of the quilt was extremely warm, it seemed that he had been sent home.

Pulling his body, he couldn't help but gasp, only to feel a heart-rending pain in his arm, and then he felt like his whole body was falling apart, the muscles on his face were still a little trembling, and his head was splitting, and then he understood that he was afraid that he was suffering from the cold and blood loss, and his spirit was highly nervous, and the muscle soreness in his body was obviously overtired.

The sky seems to be dark, looking at the hazy window with bright lights, it seems that you can still faintly see a few stars, and the noisy laughter can be heard clearly.

After a little relief, Zhang Zhenyi struggled to get up from the bed, and brightened up the room, then looked at the figure in the mirror, only to see that the color of his face was slightly pale, his eye sockets were sunken a lot, a white gauze was wrapped around his left arm, and he didn't know who changed the close-fitting shirt and trousers, anyway, he was gone.

Then he turned his head and took out a glass on the coffee table in the corner and poured a glass of water to moisten his throat, then he became a little sober, looking at the courtyard outside the window, and then he thought of what his home is today.

"Knock knock!"

His thoughts were interrupted by a knock on the door, and the young man had to turn around, and when he opened the door, he found his uncle Runping standing outside the door with a red egg in his hand, looking at him with a smile.

"Shinichi, awake? Your grandmother saw the lights upstairs and guessed that you woke up, and your body was still in pain, but a large family was worried to death, how could it be that you were in trouble every time, if it wasn't for the second child of the Mao family to run fast, you would have been bitten to death by a wolf. ”

Mao was beaten every day.

Zhang Zhenyi immediately understood what the reason was, that kid was really not beaten in vain, but then again, if he hadn't run home to call someone, maybe he would have been bitten to death by a wolf, and this account is really difficult to calculate.

"Little uncle, why didn't you go to accompany the wine, what did you come up for?"

Whether the peasant family marries a daughter-in-law, whether they live in the city or in the countryside, a banquet is indispensable, this is not like a city person to have a wedding, and it will be solved with a meal, but toast from the beginning, a table to come, it is generally impossible not to drink and lie down, but the three uncles and brothers, plus an old aunt who can drink, maybe they can really carry it this time, unless the Mao family pulls the team this time.

"Your second uncle can drink, I can't, one cup will be drunk, besides, you don't know what amount of alcohol your uncle drinks, a thousand cups is not normal, tonight he gets married, I won't give him a drink, in the future when I get married, you kid will drink for me."

Uncle Runping is still so realistic, the young man smiled slightly when he heard this, the little uncle in his previous life was not good at drinking, every time he did something during the holidays, the little uncle always drank drinks alone, watching the eldest uncle and second uncle finish bottle after bottle, he was a typical scholar, no drinking, no smoking, no gambling, but unfortunately he didn't read the book, he entered the wrong line, the old grandmother often talked about the scholar born to her son at that time, but he was born in the wrong child, and he had no money to be a gentleman when he entered the Liu family.

"Would you like to go down and get something to eat? Or will I give you the endpoint up? ”

Zhang Zhenyi shook his head, he knew that this season was lively, how could he miss it when it was so grand, he brought a camera when he came back, although it was still tape, but it was better than not coming, and the scene of the uncle's haunting cave room was filmed and given to the future little cousin who didn't know if there was a gift, but it was the best thing.

After getting dressed, after such a while, Zhang Zhenyi felt that he was much more sober than Fang Cai, and the soreness on his body gradually decreased, but there was still some numbness in his arms, it may be a bacterial infection on the wolf's claws, he didn't know that the doctor was really worried about the infection before, but fortunately in winter, otherwise it would be troublesome, so he still spent a lot of money on epidemic prevention injections and hung several bottles of anti-inflammatory water.

"Yo, can you go?"

"Shinichi, does it still hurt?"

"You baby, sooner or later you will suffer, and you won't stop all day long. If it weren't for the fact that there were many people today, Lao Tzu would have beaten you up, you can, right, and go to the mountains to catch wolves, you can. ”

As soon as Zhang Zhen got downstairs, he was surrounded by all kinds of voices, and he suddenly had to laugh a little embarrassedly, and before he finished speaking, he suddenly heard the voice of the old man Liu Minghua falling, and his face suddenly changed a little, whether it was in his previous life or now Zhang Zhenyi was most afraid of this old man, and he was overwhelmed by a word.

"What is today, Minghua, you can't say a few words!"

An elder of the Liu family watched Zhang Zhenyi grow up, and immediately spoke out to persuade him, the old man had to glare fiercely when he heard the words, Zhang Zhenyi laughed a couple of words and drilled to the side, the room was full of people, and it was only six o'clock now, and it was dark early in winter.

The house in the county seat is almost all blind dates in Taoyuan Village, as well as some relatives in the family, friends in the county, and guests of the Mao family, almost all of them are hundreds of people, fortunately, the small building of the second aunt's house can also do a lot of people, there are more than 20 tables piled up in the yard, and there are almost more than 200 people sitting in the house.

"Shinichi, why did you come down, is it still in pain?"

Aunt Liu Xiaoping's eyes are very sharp, at a glance I saw the little nephew from the pile of people into the kitchen, this kitchen is still Zhang Zhenyi specially let the masons rebuild and decorate, almost more than 20 square meters, it seems very spacious, the original idea is to prevent the family from doing big things, after all, to build a new house to live in is estimated to have to wait until ten years later, today just came in handy.

I saw a big basin full of kitchen, a large pot of raw chickens piled up inside, and a large crucian carp unique to the nineties, and later with the deterioration of water quality and overfishing, this kind of lake wild crucian carp with more than two catties is rare, raw turtles, yellow eels, are the villagers of Taoyuan Village of Lao Liu Tuo from the lake fished up, this season is not very tight, some of the food in this year is good, there are no good things, these farmers can catch things by themselves, Liu Minghua has made enough, There are also many seasonal vegetables and fruits consigned from the southern province by her daughter-in-law Zhang Wenming, square meat unique to the peasant family, and radish balls are packed in several buckets.

As soon as Zhang Zhen smelled the thick aroma of meat, the gluttonous worms in his stomach suddenly couldn't help it, and his rumbling stomach was really a little uncompromising, looking at the fried lean meat with oily dried chili peppers that had been fried in the bucket, he couldn't help but reach out and twist a piece and stuff it into his mouth, and before he reached his mouth, he was knocked away by a hand that was slanted over him.

"Auntie, what are you doing?"

Zhang Zhenyi didn't need to look at it to know who it was, and as soon as he looked up, he saw Liu Xiaoping staring at him, and he had to show a wry smile on his face, this woman didn't know how she got married in the future, it was really bitter that the little brother-in-law who hadn't met yet but was already familiar with it.

"If you don't wash your hands, you will grab meat and eat it, and you will starve to death."

The knife mouth tofu heart, Liu Xiaoping scolded in his mouth and took out a sea bowl, and after purifying the water, he piled a bowl of fried meat and roast chicken into the bowl, as well as a large pile of Huangshan meat, all of which were the middle of the abdomen.

The night of winter came unusually early, and it passed faster and faster, pinching the fingers to calculate the hour has been in the noisy noise of a large family, and more than two hours have passed, and then Cairo is served, the snacks and fruits on the first course make a group of guests who have been hungry all night eat a plate to the sky, and then the big dishes that come up are making everyone shout and be happy.

The villagers praised the kindness of the old Liu family, the son got married, although the old villagers did not take the initiative to give gifts, but the old Liu family still chartered more than a dozen cars to bring the old and young in the village to dinner, and sent them back at night, the gift money was confiscated, the village people are simple, eat you once, read you for a lifetime, Zhang Zhen has been taught early in the morning.

Lao Liu, who has always valued his reputation, is happy this time, and he praises his grandson for being sensible, and the grandson of Lao Liu's family has opened a supermarket, written a book, and is on TV.

Zhang Zhenyi ate a big bowl of hodgepodge after he already had a full seven, eighty percent full, the whole banquet was tossed in the old uncle's new house, the camera came to a close-up of the family, the old bride was accompanied by her mother and sister three in the house to eat, the most lively time in the village is the haunted cave room after dinner, the young man does not want to miss the hottest scene in this season, in the later time, this pure custom is more and more rare.

The banquet is in full swing, the night is thick, and the noisy Liu family compound is full of unique country jokes in the nineties, without too much etiquette and sycophancy, some are just simple men wandering wantonly in the joy of life, singing the blessings of life, laughing at the ups and downs of life, and tasting the sweetest mellow liquor in this sad and sad time.

The time of youth gradually receded in a red scene, never young again, no longer debauched young and frivolous, Zhang Zhenyi looked at the young men, raised his glass and fell in the old man's scolding, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but smile a touch of arc.
