The master then asked: "Chengxiong, there is no one else here anyway, you just talk to me, how much did Yan Qing spend when he took it?" ”

At that time, Cheng Xiong laughed when he heard this, and said: "Not much, not much, not much money." ”

"You have to tell me if you don't have a lot of money, even if it's not a lot of money, you have to tell me the number! How much is it? The master asked.

Cheng Xiong saw that the master Fu Ruci was honest, so he simply told the master, "Actually, I didn't spend too much money on my lover, and the total bride price was more than 2,000 yuan." ”

"It's only more than two thousand, and it's still back and forth, my good girl! Look at how much money you save, it only costs more than 2,000 yuan to marry a daughter-in-law, how much heart and sweat this saves your parents! Our kid can't do it, it's really elbowing out. There's no way, that's it, our children are born to care about you! You can't control him, and you can't cure him. The master said helplessly but humorously.

Cheng Xiong took the master's words and said with a smile: "Don't be like this, master!" A place like ours is definitely not as well developed as those cities in the south. Your children have married and given birth to children in the south, so there must be many more opportunities to develop and earn money in the future than those of us who have returned to our hometowns, right?"

"If that's the case, it's also reasonable, really, our family is less educated, if my son is as educated as you, then the other party's bride price will definitely not be too much, who doesn't want to live with highly educated, iron rice bowl people, which parents don't have to think about the future of their children? How good it is for you to get a salary every month, unlike now, just for a little pension money, running east and west, but tossing my old body and bones."

At this time, the guests of Duanmu's family who came to eat the full moon wine came in one after another, and Cheng Xiong saw that there were guests visiting, so he turned around and hurriedly said to the master: "Master!" I'm going to welcome guests here, so I'm not going to talk to you yet, you're busy first. ”

"Okay, boss, you go, you can leave the big things in the back kitchen to me!" Master Fu Dao.

Cheng Xiong greeted the people in front of his house and greeted the people who Wu Lie would call the seven aunts and eight aunts in the future.

"The third child, I'm happy to be a noble son!"

"Rejoice, rejoice!"

"Third brother, congratulations!"

"Oops, rejoice, rejoice!"

"Chengxiong, now that you're a father, are you happy?"

"That's, can you be unhappy, come and sit in the house."

……

In this way, there was a real stream of guests who came to congratulate them. This is the child's second uncle, and that is the child's third uncle. In a few moments, the room was filled.

The time soon came to half past ten in the morning, and it was about to start the banquet, only to hear the shouts of the guests: "Come ~ come ~ come!" Old and young masters, girls and daughters-in-law, today is a good day for the Duanmu family to have a noble son! Welcome to everyone, thank you for coming to participate in the full moon banquet of 'Duanmu Wulie' from your busy schedule, please take your seats as soon as possible, we are all hungry, and when this table is full, we will start the banquet immediately."

In a few moments, the seats were filled. The banquet was also quickly served on the table, still cold first and then hot, with eight large bowls of vegetables and full of red bean rice. People are talking and eating. In the hundreds of generations of life, in the end, it is all a passing thing, and people continue to grow old and talk. talks about neighbors, life, and national events;

Another person walked into the full moon banquet, he was Wang Dazhuang. The wind and frost of life seem to have carved his face even older. Cheng Xiong glanced at Wang Dazhuang, since he didn't see that it was him.

"Cheng Xiong!" Wang Dazhuang shouted.

Cheng Xiong turned his head and looked at it, stunned, thinking that another one had come to ask for money. It wasn't until Wang Dazhuang shouted Cheng Xiong that Cheng Xiong reacted.

"Yo! This is Big Strong, I don't know if you didn't call my name, why didn't you come now? As soon as Cheng Xiong wanted to get closer, a strong fishy smell wafted over Wang Dazhuang's body. Someone whispered next to him, "Huh? Why is the fish seller here, don't let me and me at the same table with him, the fishy smell of disgusting him is too great. ”

Brother Da Zhuang showed some apologies on his face, and said to Cheng Xiong: "I'm sorry, Cheng Xiong!" I'm so busy today that I don't even know that you're going to make a full moon wine for your children today. I'm sorry, I just got the news, I haven't even changed my clothes, I'm so embarrassed. ”

Cheng Xiong said: "It's okay, it's okay, just let the people come!" When people come, friendship will come, and you can have your heart. ”

After hearing Cheng Xiong's words, Wang Dazhuang opened the knot in his heart, and said to Cheng Xiong: "That, Brother Cheng Xiong, where is the account office?" I just came here and want to take some money. ”

Cheng Xiong pointed to his house and said to Wang Dazhuang: "Oh, brother over there, the first room in it is!" ”

Wang Dazhuang also replied: "Well, okay, brother! I'm going to make up the bill, and we'll wait for the next table, and then we'll continue to drink two cups. "Da Zhuang said.

After a while, the first seat was taken down. When people leave, they don't forget to find a clinker bag and take some vegetables back, and the countrymen take care of this paddle folding dish." The second banquet was about to begin, and the help of Lao Busy (meaning "help" in the Northeast rural language) simply cleaned up the table. He served another bowl of buds, and put red bean rice in the bowl of Rao, who did not drink alcohol. According to the agreement just now, Cheng Xiong sat with Wang Dazhuang and did his best.

Wang Dazhuang has seen it for so many years, and Cheng Xiong still looks up to him like this. So he brewed it in his head, then stood up, lifted a glass of wine, and said to Chengxiong: "Come!" Brother Chengxiong, I'll give you a glass first! Today is a good day for our child to be full moon, and I wish him a talent in the future, and a prosperous future! "Well, that full glass of wine is down, happy! Joy!

"Good! Good! Cheng Xiong said, then stood up as well, continued Wang Dazhuang's momentum, and drank another glass of wine.

Wang Dazhuang saw that Cheng Xiong's wine glass was also drunk, so he picked up the beer bottle, first poured Cheng Xiong and then filled himself with a glass of wine. Said happily: "You, this time is really fast now, the last time I drank with you was when you got married, I really didn't expect it!" I'll be able to have a drink with you again so soon, hahaha~"

Cheng Xiong also picked up his wine glass, stood up, and said to Da Zhuang euphemistically: "Brother Da Zhuang, in fact, the last time the two of us drank, it was not when I got married, but when I moved to a new house, the two of us drank. ”

Brother Da Zhuang patted his head and said with emotion: "Oh, you see my memory, it's really getting worse and worse!" By the way, wasn't the last time I drank with you when you moved to a new house? This memory is getting worse and worse! Then he laughed at himself: "Look at it, I'm selling fish now, and my head is about to be sold as fish heads, it's useless, it's useless......"

Cheng Xiong comforted: "It's okay big brother, what's useless." If you can come to see me, I'm already very satisfied, let's not have so many vain things, as long as you come, you can drink with me today, I'm already very content, thank you, my big brother! Thank you for coming! Thank you to the boy and his uncle! ”

"This third child, what you say is still so appealing~ This eloquence is really the same as before." Wang Dazhuang turned his head and looked at the guests around him, who were not interested in this fishy person. Wang Dazhuang glanced at the people on the table, and the people around him were all disgusted. Of course, Wang Dazhuang is also interested, and when he saw that the people around him were not waiting to see him, he turned his gaze to Cheng Xiong's body again, only to see Cheng Xiong's eyes also looking at Wang Dazhuang, the two looked at each other, Wang Dazhuang's heart was of course very clear, only Cheng Xiong could look at him. So Wang Dazhuang said to Cheng Xiong with the strength of wine: "Brother Cheng Xiong, you are really amazing!" How old are you, you have everything, or do you have the ability, I really can't compare. Your vast life, huh? I'm still older than you, it's over, I don't have a house or a daughter-in-law! You are still better than me, how can you have them all at such an age? After that, I was busy all the time, and finally I was called the 'fish seller', which was emotional. ”

Cheng Xiong immediately replied to Dao Wang Da Zhuang, and said, "Brother Da Zhuang, you, don't be discouraged first!" This person relies on perseverance and ideas. After listening to this, Wang Dazhuang nodded and continued to listen to Chengxiong: "This person, you must be open-minded, and you must not let yourself go into a dead end." First of all, Rao's thinking must be changed. This person must not wander around in the old circle, usually read more books, learn more knowledge and culture that is useful to himself, you must know that knowledge is the first productive force now! So, be sure to arm your mind with knowledge. ”

"Okay! Chengxiong is good. ”

"That's right! Chengxiong's needle is really right. ”

"That's right, I've really heard the world today, Chengxiong, these words of yours are really too literary."

……

Then there was a bunch of flattering words that floated out of the rao mouth on the table. Baiwei's life, ups and downs, in the adult world, there has never been fairness. In this way, two old classmates and two old friends reminisced about the past, talked about ideals, and talked happily.

There is a life. It takes a lot of learning and persistence to make you stand out in the end. Cheng Xiong and Wang Dazhuang talked and laughed, and they couldn't help but move: life is vast, vast as the sea, but only good conduct and outstanding talent can make the boat of life sail smoothly through the rapids and reefs, and sail to a broader land, so that it will not be subverted and swallowed up by the wind and waves. 166 Reading Network
