216 "Friends" are not easy to be
(Cat flutter Chinese) The reason why it is said that Da Niu's marriage is the most lively marriage in Ningcheng is because of the large number of people participating in this marriage, and He Xiaojun, the host, also made the form of this wedding too novel and lively, so that the people who witnessed this marriage were full of praise and refreshing.
In order to prepare for this marriage, He Xiaojun not only sacrificed the sleepless nights of the two, but also requisitioned Mayor Xie's special jeep, personally served as an errand runner, and ran around.
On the first two nights of the wedding, He Xiaojun had stayed up all night preparing for the wedding banquet, and for this banquet, He Xiaojun also specially invited more than a dozen women who knew how to cook from Chen Village to help in the restaurant to assist Ah Mei and them in preparing for the banquet.
Before midnight the night before the wedding, He Xiaojun sent Da Niu and the old man Chen Chi back to the ancestral home of Da Niu in Chen Village in a car, and wanted to hold an important pre-wedding ceremony for Da Niu before twelve o'clock that night.
In Haishan, the night before the wedding, men and women who are going to be brides and grooms have to hold a ceremony, which is called "Shangtou" in the local area.
The ritual of "going up" is performed by the elders of both men and women, who comb their hair in front of the ancestral tablet for men and women who are about to get married, symbolizing that the person has become an adult.
This comb is exquisite, only combed three times, and, every time you comb it, you have to say an auspicious saying, like "one comb of white hair and eyebrows", "two combs of money all over the ground", "three combs of children and grandchildren" and so on.
Since Da Niu has no elders, the old man Chen Chi, who is the closest person to him in the clan, became the elder of this "top". And the situation on Aunt Hong's side is also the same as that of the big cow, and Aunt Mei, the sister-in-law of the old man Chen Chi, will be the elder of this "top".
After the end of the "top" form of the big cow, He Xiaojun did not rest, and then he was busy organizing the backbone of Chen Village such as Brother Han and Langzhong Apu, and took a group of women to start the preparation of the banquet here overnight.
According to Da Niu's marriage, there was no need to hold a banquet in Chen Village, but only after returning to worship the ancestors, he would set up a banquet to entertain relatives and friends when he returned to the city. But He Xiaojun wanted to make this marriage lively for Da Niu and Aunt Hong, and secondly, he was grateful to Chen Cun for taking him in that day, so he paid for Chen Cun to set up a banquet, so that the whole village of Chen Village would also be lively.
Since the banquet in the village was set to be eaten in the morning, He Xiaojun organized people to start preparing in the middle of the night.
After dawn, He Xiaojun began to rush again, he first sent the old man Chen Chi and Da Niu back to the city, and then led Da Niu to pick up the bride.
In Haishan's marriage customs, the link of "haunting the hole room" is not popular, but it is popular in the two links before the groom picks up the bride and the bride enters the groom's house.
As for why the marriage customs of Haishan are not like many places in the country, "haunted houses" are popular? He Xiaojun also does not know.
Perhaps, this can be regarded as a manifestation of humanistic care in Haishan's unique marriage culture. The newlyweds are exhausted in various wedding ceremonies and receptions, and if the role of "best man" is commonly known as "friend" in Haishan, it means unmarried friends. And the "bridesmaids" are called "bridesmaids" in Haishan.
In Haishan's marriage, there is no limit to the number of "friends" and "companions", anyway, they are good friends of the newlyweds, and they are suitable for such roles.
In Haishan's entire marriage, the most ferocious part of the trouble between the "friend" and the "companion" is in the groom to pick up the bride.
When picking up the bride, the "bride" will close the door and prevent the bride from entering to pick up the bride, and then negotiate the terms with the groom until the conditions are negotiated, and then let the person in.
Talking about conditions with the "companion girl", of course, the "friend" will come out.
encountered some tricky and eccentric "companion girls", "friends" have to fight wits and strength to complete this "open" pass, so "friends" are not easy to be, and the leader of "friends" is even more difficult.
Aunt Hong's side, there must be her "daughter" and the "Twelve Golden Hairpins" as the companions, considering that the other party's companion group is overwhelming, and people with professional backgrounds like the "Twelve Golden Hairpins" are definitely not so easy to deal with, He Xiaojun also wants to strengthen the "Friends" lineup on his side.
It's a pity that after He Xiaojun came to this life, the number of unmarried men he knew was indeed limited, and in the end, he only recruited Hu Feng and squad leader Liu, who asked Yang Platoon Commander to be on special leave, as helpers, and also brought a "deed" tiger who was indiscriminately filled, so that he could barely make up enough of this "friend group"
Looking back at his "Friends Group", He Xiaojun already knew that today's "opening the door" was not easy.
Needless to say, a child, how can he help? As for squad leader Liu, because he is not a local, he is not familiar with this custom, and besides, others are also silent, how can he be worthy of such a big task today? Originally, He Xiaojun also pinned a trace of hope on Hu Feng, hoping that he, a trendy young man, could help him, but when he asked, he knew that he was actually a junior brother, He Xiaojun could only prepare to fight alone.
He Xiaojun in his previous life, because of his good popularity, he also looked good, so many friends and workers liked to ask him to be a "friend" when they got married.
Since he has had many experiences, today's role is also familiar to He Xiaojun.
It is because he is clear about the "long way to go" of this role, and he is more aware of the difficulties of the other party, but it is difficult to find talents on his side, He Xiaojun is ready to fight a tough battle, not only prepared a rich opening "Li Shi", but also filtered in his mind the contingency tricks that he had seen and heard in his previous life and personally experienced, and prepared to fight the "Twelve Golden Hairpins".
As expected by He Xiaojun, when they came to the "Drunken Fragrance Building" where Aunt Hong came out of the pavilion, Aunt Hong lived, "The groom has come to pick up the bride, and I also ask the sisters to raise their noble hands, don't miss the good day." He Xiaojun, the head of the "friend", spoke out first.
"Hey, opening the door so easily, isn't our bride too cheap?" The person who spoke inside listened to the voice of the top brand Chunmei of "Drunken Fragrance Building".
"And what do you want?"
"At least show some sincerity."
Hey, here's the offer.
He Xiaojun said stupidly: "Didn't our groom come with full sincerity?" ”
"That's not enough, we need something practical."
"What is practical?" He Xiaojun continued to play stupid.
Seeing He Xiaojun pretending to be stupid, the other party was not polite, and directly offered the price: "Aunt Hong has worked hard for so many years, if you want to marry her, at least give her a stable life in the future, it's better to do this, you pay the auspicious amount of nine hundred and ninety-nine oceans, let us hand it over to Aunt Hong, and we will open the door." ”
Hehe, you just want to open the door "Laishi", and you don't need to open your mouth like this, right? He Xiaojun was not fooled, he replied: "Aunt Hong's future life will be arranged by her husband, so you girls don't need to care." Hey, if you continue to grind like this, you will miss the good day. If we don't open the door again, we will bang on the door and go in. ”
"Huh, you dare? Today, our bride is the biggest, and the companion daughter is second, what you boss He said doesn't count. ”
"I know you're amazing, Miss Chunmei, so how do you open the door?"
"Hmm...... In this way, Aunt Hong is our good mother, she is married today, we have nothing to be filial to her, you just give a lottery, come to a long ninety-nine oceans, let us buy things and give gifts, honor Aunt Hong, and we will open the door for you to come in. ”
The custom of Haishan is that gifts must be given in front of the happy event, and then the gift is called inauspicious, so the person who gives the gift has already given the gift before the newcomer "goes up", and now what kind of gift is there to say? This girl is purely swindling money.
"Sister Chunmei, you should be filial to Aunt Hong, but now it's past the time to give gifts, so let's do it, if you fancy any gift you want to give to Aunt Hong one day in the future, just tell me, let me pay for it for you to give her."
Seeing that the old He Xiaojun was not fooled, the golden hairpins inside were helpless, and after discussing with each other for a while, they had to lower the price again and ask for nineteen oceans to open the door "Li Shi". Cat flutter Chinese
