Although they clamored to see each other and beat them once, after beating Dai Yue once in anger, Liu Dequan and Liu Decheng did not continue to come to make trouble.

According to the consistent local customs, when the banquet is held, the same clan and the same clan do not need to come to the door, and they all come to the door automatically after a salute. Since Liu Dequan's banquet was not eaten, whoever held the banquet had to weigh it, and the money spent on the banquet was one thing, mainly because he couldn't afford to lose that person. Although it is related to the initiative, the people who talk about it will not understand it that way, and will only think that the host of the banquet has a bad relationship and no one wants to eat.

At the time of the Laba Festival, Yan Youcheng's nephew's wedding banquet was all in accordance with the initiative, with cigarettes not exceeding 10 yuan and wine not exceeding 15 yuan, and the red tape that should be exempted was exempted. Not only did it save a lot of money for a couple, but it also saved a lot of tossing. When the wedding was going on, the newlyweds specially invited Dai Yue to be their witness to express their gratitude.

And the guests who attended the wedding banquet, who has not smoked a good cigarette or drunk a good wine in this era? As for the dishes at the banquet, although they are not often eaten, it is not so much that they have never served meat. For them, there is nothing more affordable than giving less money. And this couple's ingenuity only charges 100 yuan, and the return gift is 1 yuan, which is equivalent to receiving 99 yuan, which means that it will last for a long time.

In this way, the guests have less pressure on the gift money, the owner also saves expenses, and both parties can easily and happily send blessings to the couple. Although the whole wedding process was simple, it was more lively than all the previous weddings in the village. This can be regarded as a model for future weddings in the village.

At the end of the wedding, when Yan Youcheng pulled Dai Yue to express his gratitude, he saw a group leader Liu Derong coming in a panic: "Director Dai, go and take a look, someone is about to die." ”

"What's so flustered?" Dai Yue frowned slightly.

Liu Derong said: "Uncle Tongxin was discharged from the hospital, and he said that Dequan and Decheng had insulted the lintel of the Liu family and wanted to kill them. ”

Yan Youcheng interjected: "Liu Laogou doesn't know whether he is alive or dead, how can he kill two young people with his old guy." ”

Liu Derong was so anxious that his eyes narrowed into a line: "Uncle Tongxin has a gun in his hand." ”

"Yes," Yan Youcheng said, "Liu Laogou is a combat hero, and he did get a gun for him as a souvenir at that time." ”

Dai Yue instantly became nervous: "Let's go and have a look." ”

There was still a long way to go from the five groups to the group, and Yan Youcheng arranged for two descendants of the Yan family to ride motorcycles to carry them straight to the group.

When I entered a group, I saw from a distance that there were many people surrounded by the three floors inside and outside the door of Liu Dequan's house.

After approaching, Dai Yue jumped off the motorcycle and rushed in to break through the crowd, only to see Liu Dequan and Liu Decheng kneeling on the ground, Liu Tongxin holding a very old gun and shouting at them: "What did the last sentence of Liu's ancestral training say, recite it to me." ”

The two of them lowered their heads and kept silent, and Dai Yue stepped forward: "Uncle Liu, what are you doing here, quickly put away the gun." ”

Liu Tongxin glared at Dai Yue: "It has nothing to do with you, you only care about national law, but this is a Liu family matter." You just stand aside, if you talk too much, I'll shoot, kill them first, and then kill myself." ”

Dai Yue hurriedly raised his hands to show no malice: "Uncle Liu, you calm down." ”

Liu Tongxin ignored him and pressed the barrel of the gun against Liu Decheng's head: "What is the last sentence of Zu Xun, say it quickly." ”

Liu Decheng was so frightened that he trembled, and his mouth opened and closed but he couldn't speak. Liu Tongluo, the most prominent and faceful of the Liu family on the side, reminded: "Respect the law and abide by discipline, love the country and family, and do not harm the country and the people." ”

Liu Decheng hurriedly read it in a trembling voice, and Liu Tongxin was cold: "Since you know that you must respect the law and abide by discipline, why do you still hold a banquet?" ”

Dai Yue hurriedly interjected: "Uncle Liu, it's not illegal to set up a banquet." ”

Liu Tongxin turned his head and drank: "I don't violate your law, but I have violated my family law, and I sent the proposal, which is the Liu family's family law." ”

Liu Tongluo interjected: "Tongxin, although you don't take the patriarch seriously, I am the patriarch, and the family rules and family laws are all determined by me." ”

Liu Tongxin asked: "Then have you eaten Liu Dequan's banquet?" ”

Liu Tongluo hurriedly waved his hand: "No, no." ”

Liu Tongxin said coldly: "Doesn't that mean that you agree with this new family law?" ”

"This..."Liu Tongluo is not good at how to justify, for fear that one will accidentally provoke Liu Tongxin.

Liu Tongxin once again smacked Liu Decheng's head with the barrel of a gun: "Two unscrupulous things, taking advantage of my illness to violate family law to set up a banquet, and also violating national law to beat state cadres, even if you die 10,000 times, it will be difficult to eliminate the hatred in my heart." ”

Liu Decheng didn't dare to move, Liu Dequan kowtowed like garlic: "Uncle, we know it's wrong, you can spare us." The Liu clan relatives next to him hurriedly followed suit.

Yan Youcheng squeezed in and interjected: "Aren't you two quite good that day, and you have to see Director Dai once and beat him once, he's standing here, you guys are beating." ”

Liu Dequan hurriedly kowtowed to Dai Yue: "Director Dai, we were wrong, we don't dare anymore." ”

"Uncle Yan," Dai Yue said, "don't make a mess with it." ”

Liu Tongxin glanced at him: "Yan Laogou, I lost this time, your descendants will be angry, and my descendants will not be angry." But I only lost to future generations, and I didn't lose myself. "It seems that these two people have made a bet privately because of the initiative.

There are also pitiful places for hateful people, Dai Yue saw Liu Dequan's kowtow and his head was bleeding, and he was moved by compassion: "Uncle Liu, they know that they are wrong, so you can spare them." ”

Yan Youcheng also said: "Forget it, in the future, there will definitely be times when you are ignorant, and besides, you didn't really lose this time, no one came to Liu Dequan's banquet to eat, he just put it for himself, and it was demolished before the official wedding shed." ”

"Really?" Liu Tongxin turned his gun to Liu Dequan.

Liu Dequan hurriedly explained: "Really, no one had a salute the day before the main holiday, and no one had a banquet, so I withdrew from the wedding shed that night and returned everything that should have been returned." ”

Liu Tongxin turned his head and looked at Yan Youcheng proudly: "Haha, if you don't reach the regular date, you won't be able to set up a banquet, I didn't lose." ”

"Yes, yes, you didn't lose." Yan Youcheng agreed, reaching out and taking something out of his pocket.

Liu Tongxin pointed his gun at Liu Decheng again: "Dequan has apologized to Director Dai, and you have to apologize too." ”

Liu Decheng glanced at the muzzle of the black hole, swallowed his saliva, and kowtowed: "Director Dai, I was wrong..."

At this moment, Yan Youcheng secretly threw the things in his hand to Liu Decheng's side, making a loud 'bang', which turned out to be a firecracker. Liu Decheng fell to the ground in response, and the crowd on the side thought that the gun had gone off and fled in fright.

Liu Tongxin was also frightened and took a step back, and pointed a gun at Yan Youcheng: "Old dog, you are playing a prank again." ”

Yan Youcheng laughed: "Liu Decheng kicked me that day, I have to take revenge." ”

The crowd reacted and hurriedly checked on Liu Decheng who fell to the ground, at this time he was already frightened and his pants were all soaked.

"Hey, pee your pants." Liu Dequan, who was still trembling beside him, stepped aside in disgust.

Liu Tongxin put away the gun: "You two, for Director Dai's sake, spare it for the time being, and if you dare to do it again next time, you will never be spared." "Grab your gun and get ready to go home.

Dai Yue followed: "Uncle Liu, your gun is too dangerous, don't take it out again in the future." ”

Yan Youcheng laughed quietly: "The state gave him a memorial, there are no bullets at all, and he can only bluff people." After that, he went up and helped Liu Tongxin's shoulder: "Old dog, in order not to lose to me, you even used a gun, last time Liu Decai stiffened up and couldn't share the compensation, why didn't you come out and say something?" ”

Liu Tongxin said lightly: "Do you think I didn't say it, it's just that he came out of Wufu early, he has his own uncle, and my words don't count." ”

Things have come to this point, it's basically pretty much the same, Dai Yue thought to himself.

When I returned to the brigade headquarters, there was a three-wheeled motorcycle parked at the door, which was equipped with tables, chairs, benches, rainbow doors and other utensils for setting up banquets.

Dai Yue stepped forward, but saw Luo Zhifei, the chef of the village banquet, sitting in the cab, while his wife and children and parents gathered around the front of the tricycle.

"Is there something going on?" Dai Yue stepped forward and asked.

Luo Zhifei came down from the cab: "Director Dai, I'm here to ask you for a living." ”

Dai Yue was a little inexplicable: "Didn't you make a banquet at Yan's house today, and they didn't settle the bill for you?" ”

"It's over," Luo Zhifei said, "But what about the Yan family's banquet after it's done?" I don't have any work left, and my family has to feed me, so I ask Director Dai to give me a way to live. ”

Dai Yue said: "You have craftsmanship, and the guy is also a complete set, are you afraid that you won't have anything to eat?" ”

Luo Zhifei said lightly: "In previous years, I was really not afraid of not having food, and I was too busy to do it, but this year, didn't Director Dai let me set up a banquet?" If no one sets up a banquet, how can I have anything to do? The whole family must not watch starve to death? ”

This is something Dai Yue didn't expect, and he can't smash other people's legitimate jobs. He thought for a moment and asked, "I remember that there were no wedding feasts in the village in the first half of the year, how did you survive at that time?" ”

Luo Zhifei said: "According to the situation in previous years, I slept at home every day in the first half of the year, and I could earn a lot of money in the second half of the year. And my whole family is doing this, my chef, my dad side dishes, my mom and my wife do chores, and now I don't do the banquet, which means that my whole family is unemployed. ”

Dai Yue asked, "Haven't you tried to develop in other villages?" ”

Luo Zhifei shook his head: "There are people in every village who do this, let's go and grab other people's jobs, if we can't grab it, we will be beaten." ”

What he said also made some sense, but Dai Yue didn't know how to reply for a while, he thought for a while: "You wait first, I'll find a way for you." ”

In the next few days, Dai Yue mobilized all his interpersonal relationships to find a means for Luo Zhifei to make a living, and finally found a place in a large residential area in the city.

It turns out that many residents living in the community now feel that the hotel is not enough to do the wedding when they do red and white ceremonies, and they are more disturbing in the community, so they have bred an industry: someone has made a small piece of land near the community and built a large wedding shed, which is specially used for the residents to do happy events. It just so happened that there was a residential area recruiting supporting banquets for one-stop cooperation, and after Luo Zhifei went, it could be seamlessly connected.

The wage of a banquet in the city is much higher than that in the countryside, and Luo Zhifei took his family into the city with great gratitude. For the entire initiative to refrain from indiscriminate banquets, it can be regarded as a complete end.
