Chapter 4: The old fat uncle gets married
Uncle Lao Fat is the youngest son of the grandfather, he went to the army as a soldier a few years ago, and he just came back from the army, talked about a partner in the city, and is ready to get married in the next few days.
In rural areas, getting married is very simple, both men and women go to the Civil Affairs Bureau to register, get a certificate, and then hold a wedding celebration and invite the villagers to have a meal.
Uncle Fat's wedding celebration was held at home, and the grandfather asked the villagers who cooked delicious food to help, and planned to prepare more than a dozen tables of wedding banquets, and invited relatives and friends to have a meal, and it was done.
Lin Yue grew up so big, it was the first time to participate in this kind of wedding banquet, her eyes were full of curiosity, and she happily followed a few older children, running around in the middle of the wedding table, giggling while running, so unhappy. She watched the adults bring out a lot of delicious dishes from the house, and saliva flowed down the corners of her mouth.
"Here comes the bride." I don't know who shouted. Everyone looked towards the courtyard gate, and some ran straight over. I saw a black Santana slowly driving towards me, with a "囍" character on the front cover. The bride and groom sat in the back seat of the car, smiling and greeting everyone.
"The bride is out of the sedan chair." After someone next to her shouted, the bride was picked up by the groom from the car and slowly walked towards the courtyard. Lin Yue was too young, standing behind the adults watching the excitement in a hurry.
Lin Chengzhi looked at his daughter who was stomping her feet in a hurry, and hurriedly walked over, lifted her high, and let her sit on his shoulder. At this time, Lin Yue saw the groom and the bride clearly.
The old fat uncle was wearing a black suit, a tie, and a red flower with the word "groom" written on his chest; The bride wore a white wedding dress, with a red flower pinned to her chest with the word "bride" written on it, white gloves on her hands, and a bouquet of plastic flowers in her hands. The two of them stand together and are a special match. This costume is very rare in the countryside, and everyone who sees it will praise: it is really foreign! Very envious.
Lin Yue lost interest after watching it for a while, and clamored to come down. Lin Chengzhi gently put her down, instructed her daughter to pay attention to safety, and then turned around and went into the house to help. And Lin Yue also went to play with his friends.
"You look at you, sweating profusely, what are you running around? Don't move, don't move, I'll wipe it for you, otherwise when the wind blows later, you will wait to get sick" Liu Li grabbed Lin Yue, who was running wildly, walked to the happy table, found a vacant seat to sit down, and then pressed Lin Yue's small body to move, held a handkerchief in his hand, carefully wiped the sweat beads on his head, and whispered in his mouth.
"Mom, let me tell you a secret, I just went to my aunt's kang and grabbed a big handful of candy." Lin Yue quietly lay next to Liu Li's ear, whispered, and took out the candy in his pocket as if he was invited, opened his palm carefully, and showed Liu Li the four pieces of candy in his palm, and showed a tsundere expression of "you praise me" on her little face.
"Well, my old girl is the best, hurry up and put it away, don't let An Ning see it, otherwise you won't have to eat" Liu Li held Lin Yue's hand and lifted it up, for fear that the old girl would fall, and then put the slightly damp handkerchief into her trouser pocket.
Lin Yue knew that An Ning liked to eat sugar the most, because of eating sugar, he was only three years old, and his two front teeth turned black. Mom said that it was because An Ning ate too much candy and didn't like to brush his teeth, and the bugs settled on his teeth. Although Kobayashi Yue also likes to eat sugar, she loves beauty more, if these two black front teeth grow in her mouth, she must be crazy. Lin Yue put the sugar in his pocket, and then patted his little hand twice on the outside of the pocket, as if only in this way would the sugar stay in the pocket obediently and could not be lost.
"Everyone, be quiet, stop talking. If you don't have a seat, quickly find a seat and sit down, and the wedding feast will start immediately. The master stood in the middle of the courtyard and said to the people who were chattering.
After a while, everyone found a place to sit down, and then quietly looked at the grandfather, waiting for his next speech.
The grandfather cleared his throat, and then continued: "Thank you for taking the time to attend my old son's wedding celebration, it's noon, everyone is hungry, and I won't nag for the extra snort, let's eat" As soon as the grandfather's words fell, he heard the sound of chopsticks hitting dishes in the courtyard.
"Brother, your wine is good, it's really exciting to drink!
"Mom, I want to eat pot-wrapped meat, I can't reach it, you give me more"
"Milk, give me water, I'm choking, quick"
"These meatballs are a little salty, but they taste okay."
"Did you just see the new daughter-in-law? She's still wearing a wedding dress, it's exactly like what she looks on TV, it's so beautiful, and when my son talks about it, I'll have to ask him to find a city girl."
Lin Yue listened to the chatting of everyone at the dinner table, and her eyelids began to fight. Liu Li saw that her daughter was sleepy, so she hugged Lin Yue, who was already confused, stood up carefully, and said to Lin Chengzhi "She will take the child home first" before turning around and leaving.
Lin Yue has been running crazy all morning, and he is tired enough at this time, so he fell asleep just after eating, children are good, carefree, just be happy.
The wedding banquet of the grandfather's family lasted until half past one in the afternoon, and the villagers left one after another. Lin Chengzhi and his family cleaned up the dishes and chopsticks with several other helpers. Lin Yongtian and Lin Yongfeng had dinner and went to school. It took about an hour for everyone to put everything in order.
A wedding celebration ended like this.
