Zhang Jishou and Zhang Jifu stood at the gate, and saw Liu Renzhang and Liu Zhongzhang coming from the back street with a welcoming team beating gongs and drums, Zhang Jishou hurriedly shouted loudly towards the courtyard, "Shibao, Shiyu, come out to pick up guests, the new aunt will be here soon!" Shiyu covered his face and ran over from the backyard in a panic, Zhang Jishou scolded, "Bastard, you don't stare at the gate, what are you running around?" Don't rush to set off firecrackers yet! Then instructed the brothers Zhang Jifu and Zhang Yanniang to enter the hall and sit down, Shiyu did not dare to slack off, quickly lit a firecracker, Zhang's door was crowded with villagers watching the excitement, Shibao and the villagers warmly shook hands and greeted, Liu Renzhang and Liu Zhongzhang jumped off the horse, respectfully greeted Zhang Jishou and Zhang Shibao, the gongs and drums to welcome the relatives stopped, Renzhang came to the hall of the Zhang family surrounded by everyone, Zhang Jifu and Zhang Yanniang were sitting on both sides of the table, Renzhang and Zhang Yan kowtowed to Zhang Yan's parents three times, Zhang Jifu and Zhang Yanniang kept wiping their tears, and Zhang Yan was also teary-eyed.

Huilan reminded Renzhang to thank the second elder quickly, and Renzhang said excitedly to Zhang Yan's parents, "Dad, mother, thank you for marrying Zhang Yan to me, please rest assured, I will treat Zhang Yan well in the future." Shibao coaxed and said, "Renzhang, you have to promise the second elder that if you listen to your wife in the future, I will listen to your aunt for everything." The honest Renzhang really had to say to Zhang Yan's parents, "Father and mother, I also learn from my sister-in-law, and promise to listen to Zhang Yan in the future." Renzhang's words made everyone laugh, Zhang Yan's parents also burst into tears, and Zhang Yan glanced at Renzhang coquettishly.

Zhang Yanniang stood up and beckoned Renzhang and Zhang Yan to eat dumplings, each bowl contained six, Renzhang and Zhang Yan each ate four, Shibao instructed Shiyu, "Carry your sister on the sedan chair." Shiyu walked up to Zhang Yan and squatted down and shouted, "Good sister, get married!" Zhang Yan lay on Shiyu's back, Huilan took the new shoes in Wei Ji's hand and put them on for Zhang Yan, Wang Hui took out the red hijab and covered Zhang Yan's head, everything was cleaned up, Shiyu came to the gate with Zhang on his back, the sedan chair man hurriedly lowered the sedan chair, Shiyu steadily carried Zhang Yan into the sedan chair, Liu Zhongzhang sang loudly, "The girl Zhang Yan sat on the eight-lift sedan chair, and was the bride of the Liu family's compound, and was a good son and grandson from generation to generation!" Everyone shouted in unison, Renzhang rode on a high-headed horse, and saluted everyone with a fist, Zhongzhang saw this and shouted, "The sedan chair starts, and it is rich and rich!" Everyone applauded again, Zhang Jifu at this time with a bowl of water from under the sedan chair poured out, Wei Ji and Wang Hui followed on both sides of the sedan chair, Shibao and Hui Lan walked in front of the team to welcome the family, Hui Lan carried a red envelope, which was filled with chestnuts, dates, peanuts, longan, lotus seeds and other mascots, Zhang Jifu thanked Liu Zhongzhang, the sedan chair drivers carried the sedan chair along the back street to the east, the sedan chair out of the village to the east of the village, through the archway and then into the willow street, just past the archway, the greeting team stopped, the band began to beat gongs and drums again, Playing and singing, the children began to make a fuss, shouting around the sedan chair, "Look at the bride!" Eat the candy! Zhang Yan sprinkled a lot of sugar cubes in the sedan chair, the children snatched the sugar cubes, and ran to the Liujia compound to report the news contentedly, the door of the Liujia compound was crowded with guests, Zhizhang lit a firecracker, the atmosphere of welcoming relatives reached **, watching the lively crowd crowd crowded the entire willow street, the sky above Shuangliu Village was filled with gongs and drums, firecrackers, cheers, Renzhang and Zhongzhang took the lead to the door, Shibao and Huilan followed, Simai Niang Li took over the burden in Huilan's hands, Renzhang gave a fist salute to the relatives and friends who greeted him, and then jumped off the horse, Zhongzhang waved his hands in the air, and the sound of various musical instruments stopped abruptly, and he sang loudly, "The sedan chair landed, good luck!" The sedan chair landed steadily.

At this time, Liu Chengzu then sang loudly, "Welcome the newcomer into the willow gate!" From the gate of the Liu family compound to the family temple of the Sanjin courtyard, a long red carpet was paved, Wei Ji and Wang Hui carried Zhang Yan out of the sedan chair, Aidao handed Renzhang a red scarf, Renzhang and Zhang Yan led the red scarf across the brazier at the entrance of the compound, and slowly walked to the door of the family temple, Liu Chengzu sang loudly, "The time has come, the groom unveils the bride's hijab and bows down to the ancestors!" Renzhang used a scale pole to pick off the hijab on Zhang Yan's head, and stepped into the family temple with a scarf, and firecrackers began to be set off at the gate of the family temple, and in the sound of firecrackers, Daddy Liu began to light candles, burn incense paper, and then knelt in front of the tablet and said solemnly, "Wende told the ancestors and the ancestors, Liu Renzhang and Liu Zhangyan held a wedding ceremony today, and hoped that the ancestors and the ancestors would bless the two newlyweds to be married forever and grow old together!" Liu Chengzu sang loudly, "The two newcomers bowed to their ancestors and ancestors!" Renzhang and Zhang Yan knelt three times and bowed nine times to the tablets of the ancestors and ancestors.

A sense of solemnity and a sense of mission arises spontaneously in Zhang Yan's heart, this kind of only on the stage will see the kneeling bow, even his own experience, and it is in the mysterious and solemn Liu family temple, the altar of the family temple is neatly arranged with the tablets of the ancestors of the Liu family, since then he is a member of the Liu family, a few years later, he and Renzhang and their children and grandchildren will also be ranked in this three-foot hall, especially when I heard that Liu Daddy called himself ' Liu Zhangyan's time, Zhang Yan involuntarily trembled, as the patriarch of Daddy Liu has regarded himself as a member of the blood relatives of the Liu family, Liu Zhangyan instead of Zhang Yan, the difference between the words, but the identity is very different, which is enough to show that Daddy Liu has infinite trust and love for herself, she is determined to take on the heavy responsibility of the Liu family compound like Daddy Liu, from this moment on Daddy Liu completely replaced the position of grandfather Zhang Lu in her heart, and her heart unconsciously put on the majestic Daddy Liu.

Wei Ji saw Zhang Yan receiving such a grand courtesy in the Liu family compound, and immediately became jealous, thinking that if the third brother Liu Yizhang did not join the army, his status in the Liu family compound was far above Liu Renzhang, and he was the successor of the Liu family compound and the successor of the patriarch of the Liu clan in Shuangliu Village. Since Yizhang left, Wei Ji is like losing his soul, everything has become boring, and her thoughts about Yizhang are getting worse day by day, she obviously knows that Yizhang and Wang Hui are getting along, but she always stubbornly thinks that it is because Yizhang regards himself as the child of the Liu family, as Liu Weiji, in fact, he is obviously called Wang Pu, and after he was passed on to Liu Wenzheng as a daughter, he was changed to his current name by his eldest uncle Liu Daddy, and he is Yizhang's cousin like Wang Hui, Wei Ji knows that among all the women in the Liu family compound, he has the closest relationship with Yizhang, She is nominally Liu Wenzheng's adopted daughter, in fact, except for sleeping at night, the rest of the time is with Yizhang, the two are almost inseparable, go to school together, play together, follow Yizhang to the town to learn martial arts, and when she is tired of playing, she sleeps with Yizhang lying on the kang together, and she has seen every birthmark on Yizhang's body. Since Yizhang got along with Wang Hui, although he still stays with Wei Ji every day, he is no longer as close as before, and he doesn't even touch Wei Ji's hand, and every time Wang Hui describes the details of her secret date with Yizhang to Wei Ji, Wei Ji feels unspeakably uncomfortable, she looks no worse than Wang Hui at all, she blames herself for being unkempt, speaking loudly, not as gentle as Wang Hui, walking like Yizhang walking, making herself like a tomboy all day long, so that Yizhang has always regarded herself as a brother, In vain, he missed the opportunity to get the moon first, but Wei Ji always believed that Yizhang would return to his side one day. Zhang Yan in Shuangliu Village is regarded as the first beauty by the villagers, that is because I Liu Weiji has not dressed up well, today I have a little makeup, and many people on the way to welcome relatives are amazed at themselves, and even many people talk to each other, "Weiji is so beautiful!" "Wei Ji is the number one beauty in Shuangliu Village!" , and the obscene Zhang Shiyu stared straight at his chest, with a snarle in his mouth, if the third brother Yizhang saw a little daughter like me now, would he also be amazed? No, I have to leave Shuangliu Village as soon as possible, and I have to go to the Korean battlefield to find the third brother Yoshizhang no matter what!

"Wei Ji, what's the problem? The bride and groom have gone away, and they are about to visit the church! Zhongzhang saw his sister standing alone outside the window of the family temple in a daze, he didn't know what happened to his sister Wei Ji recently, and he didn't say anything when he asked her, and he was often stunned by himself like this.

"Big brother, you go first, I want to stay alone in the family temple for a while."

"Nonsense, you and Wang Hui are bridesmaids, and there is an important ceremony ahead, brother knows that you don't like Zhang Yan, but you still have to get by on the face, don't look at the monk's face and look at the Buddha's face, Renzhang is still very good, if it is Yizhang who marries, I won't be so positive!"

"Big brother, you are good everywhere, but you are too prejudiced against the third brother, and he didn't provoke you, why do you always have trouble with him secretly?"

"Sister, where am I secretly unable to get along with him, isn't it in front of you? I know that in addition to me, Yizhang feels the most sorry for you in the Liu family compound, and I am grateful to him for this, but he doesn't pay attention to me, the eldest brother, at all! Wei Ji, when did you hear him call me big brother once? Either ignore me, and if something happens, feed me and call me, as if I am his house slave, he disrespects me like this, and even treats me with you and Houzhang, you are a female doll, I don't have the same knowledge as you, what about Houzhang? He is the younger brother of my compatriot, he followed Yizhang all day long before joining the army, our father brought back delicious food from the city, you and he are not eating at home, you have to run out to eat, you think I don't know, you both ran out and gave Yizhang, Houzhang is good to Yizhang, more than how many times higher than to me, this is not all Yizhang's picking! ”

"Big brother, your heart is really small enough, I don't think it's much bigger than the eye of a needle, the third brother is not what you imagined, we are called blessed and enjoy hardships together!" Wei Ji took Zhongzhang's arm and said while walking towards Daddy Liu's house, the huge courtyard of the Liu family was full of dozens of tables of wedding banquets, on which wine, cigarettes, melon seeds, candy, etc. were sporadically placed, and the dishes were not yet served, and the guests followed the bride and groom to the church.

"Sister, don't blame my brother for being careful, you look at the pomp and circumstance of Renzhang's marriage, if you want more scenery, you can find more scenery, I dare to say that you can't find a second home in Huangxian County, you think about the scene of my marriage a few years ago, how shabby it is, how shabby it is, the same is the child of the Liu family's compound, why favor one over the other? It's not because Daddy Liu is partial, they are all inferior in seniority, Renzhang can marry Zhang Yan, I can't marry Huilan, where can I be reasonable? Wei Ji hurriedly covered Zhongzhang's mouth.

"Big brother, it's nothing bad for you to say bad things about the third brother, you can't say too much, you're the eldest brother! But you can't talk nonsense about Daddy Liu, especially on this occasion, once it reaches Daddy Liu's ears, you can't eat and walk around, besides, Zhang Yan and Huilan have an essential difference, Huilan is your aunt after all, and Zhang Yan has nothing to do with Brother Renzhang, where did the poor come from? Why can't you turn a corner! You and your sister-in-law have been married for several years, and my Aunt Huilan has already married Zhang Shibao, so let go of this heart disease! ”

At this time, Zhizhang ran over from the front yard and shouted to Zhongzhang, "Big brother, Sister Wei Ji, you two go quickly, Brother Renzhang and Sister Zhang Yan are going to visit the church!" Zhongzhang and Wei Ji hurriedly trotted all the way to Daddy Liu's house.

Zhongzhang and Wei Ji squeezed through the crowd, Wang Hui beckoned to Wei Ji, Wei Ji hurriedly stood on Renzhang's side, Renzhang and Zhang Yan stood on the red carpet outside the hall with scarves, Father Liu and Liu Lao Niang sat on both sides of the incense case, and the incense case was lit with red candles and three high incense.

Liu Chengzu sang loudly, "The auspicious time has come, the cigarettes are ethereal, the lights and candles are brilliant, and the bride and groom are on the flower hall!" Renzhang and Zhang Yan stepped into the hall with scarves and slowly walked to the incense case, and Liu Chengzu sang loudly, "The bride and groom worship heaven and earth!" Renzhang and Zhang Yan knelt down on the incense case, and Liu Chengzu sang loudly, "Second worship the high hall, the bride offers tea!" Renzhang and Zhang Yan respectfully bowed to Father Liu and Mrs. Liu, Zhang Yan took the teacup from Wei Ji and Wang Hui, and knelt down to offer it to the second elder, and then Liu Chengzu sang loudly, "Husband and wife worship each other and send them to the cave room!" Renzhang and Zhang Yan knelt and kowtowed to each other, because they were too close, the heads of the two accidentally touched together, causing everyone to laugh, Wei Ji and Wang Hui carried Zhang Yan into the inner room, the kang was sprinkled with chestnuts, peanuts, longan and other auspicious nuts, everyone surrounded Renzhang and Zhang Yan to sit on the edge of the kang, Huilan, Simai Niang and other elders all exited the cave room to the kitchen to work, only Simai, Aidao, Wei Ji and a group of descendants of Renzhang's peers were left in the house, Aidao gave Renzhang and Zhang Yan a relief, Zhizhang and Xigu began to coax, Zhizhang hugged Renzhang's neck, Xigu hugged Zhang Yan's neck, and shouted, "The eldest brother and sister-in-law have to feed each other!" Nian Shu, poems, letters, books, etc. also followed the noise, Renzhang picked a noodle and sent it to Zhang Yan's mouth, Zhang Yan smiled and waited with her mouth open, seeing that the noodles were about to be sent to Zhang Yan's mouth, Zhizhang gently touched Renzhang's arm with his hand, and the noodles were thrown on Zhang Yan's face, Zhang Yan didn't find that Zhizhang was making trouble, so he glared at Renzhang coquettishly, and took the noodles off his face and stuffed them directly into Renzhang's mouth....
