Chapter 1004: Before Returning
Zhang Ziwen and Mao Minghui's wedding is indeed as he said in advance, but it is also full of joy and joy of the newlyweds.
In the staff canteen where the county post office and the supply and marketing cooperatives are mixed together, a simple wedding banquet is set up in the hall. And the dishes are even more common than this year's old Zhang family's Chinese New Year's Eve and aunt's third day of the first lunar month.
- In the words of Zhang Ziwen, his aunt who pouted from time to time, it was really cold.
Is it really cold?
Not really.
You must know that now you can let a family of more than a dozen people, with a so-called gift of three yuan, but let you not only taste the taste of meat, but also eat white flour steamed buns, by the way, you still want to eat and go around, it is still impossible.
It's not that Zhang Meili didn't arrange it in advance, but she really didn't dare to mess around. It's a glorious time to be poor, but the rich are locked up in the cowshed.
Especially Zhang Chunming and Zhang Meili are really not people who instigate outsiders. Even if they save more, they will not lose the guests who come to congratulate them.
Therefore, for the wedding of their eldest son, the husband and wife spent a lot of effort and energy a few years ago, and specially went back to the village to prepare half a fan of pork and a lot of frozen fish.
Throw away the meat from the bride when she picked up the bride this morning, and the four knives of meat for her father and mother and her three brothers when she returned to her mother's house to pay New Year's greetings in the first month, even in the Chinese New Year's Eve, their family would rather make a meal of dumplings with more cabbage and less meat, and they are worried about wronging guests.
But no amount of meat left can withstand the consumption of more than 20 tables of banquets. The old colleagues who didn't plan to be invited, they came, and even the neighbors came, can they still drive people away?
No, in the end, it was the kitchen master of the unit who understood Zhang Meimei's embarrassment, and used his good knife to cut pork as thin as A4 paper to make button meat.
If you want to say this, you really can't help but admire the good knife skills of other masters. Hey...... Whoever eats one more slice won't be able to eat meat for the others?
The wedding banquet that has been remembered by a few concubines for a long, long time, there are no eight plates, and they say that they are from the city, but it has become shabby?
But since it's a banquet, of course, there must also be wine. What about wine, do you want to go to Moutai and burn sorghum in the Northeast? That's impossible. Even Zhang Ziwen's family can afford it, and they don't dare to attract too much attention.
A table and a jar of farmhouse-brewed rotten red dry wine, as well as orange-flavored soda. To be honest, Zhang Meili and her family are really well-intentioned this time.
Fortunately, the result was gratifying, and the thought was not in vain, and the atmosphere at the eldest son's wedding was quite lively.
Especially when Zhang Ziwen and Mao Minghui, the newlyweds' colleagues, presented their congratulatory gifts, it was the warm applause and congratulations of the guests under the leadership of the newlyweds' leading bosses.
Usually, most colleagues, friends, neighbors, and neighbors are with small groups, some have three cents, some have five cents, and then according to how much money they have made, they will buy daily necessities for the newcomers: such as aluminum pots, pots, washbasins, mirrors, a pair of pillowcases, etc.
But this group of energetic young people dared to break the stereotypes and adopted a trick, which is wonderful!
In addition to presenting the plaster statue of the chairman, they also gave a lot of New Year's pictures of the chairman's portrait for one or two cents. There are beckoning, sitting, full-body, half-body, anyway, there are a lot of feelings.
And these gifts are just right, in this red and shining era, adding a solemnity to the couple's characteristic vows.
After eating a wedding banquet, it is usually time to "make a hole in the room" at night.
At this time, the haunted cave house is very simple and simple, especially in the county seat, it will not be full of tricks, and even maliciously play something out and cause death.
In those days, it was the singles villages like Xialin Village, which had just been liberated earlier, or those small villages that were closed to marry common wives, and as long as there were patriarchs and clan elders, they would not allow these immoral things to affect their reputations.
As for what kind of pick-up and hook-up in private...... That is also in private. Not to mention that it used to sink into the pond, but now it will be broken as soon as there is a sign of it.
The feast was dispersed, the winter days were short, and early in the morning, the earth was plunged into darkness.
The festive moment of a new house under the lights is coming.
The brand-new bride and groom successively distributed candy to the guests who came to congratulate them, and then asked the bride and groom to sing a red song, and then teased Zhang Ziwen and Mao Minghui to talk about the process of falling in love.
When it comes to happiness, it causes laughter. In the end, someone will come up with some small problems, and everyone will do some small games together. Everyone dispersed in turn with unfulfilled and reluctant feelings.
You have to spend the night with the bride and groom, right?
It's a pity that tonight is how Zhang Ziwen waits to see Mei Jiaoniang, and he has to restrain his lust. Because tomorrow is early, Brother Ping'an will return to Beijing.
In the new house, Mao Minghui first took out the gift to be given for tea tomorrow morning from the wooden box of the wedding, and glanced at Zhang Ziwen, who had really become her lover, with a shy answer, blushing, and asked softly, "It's really okay?" I heard that Xiaoya's cousin gave her younger siblings one dollar each. ”
Zhang Ziwenle looked at her and said with a smile: "The ten yuan you give to the three brothers of Ping An is not as good as the insoles you made yourself." They are more attentive, and this is up to my uncle and my aunt. ”
Mao Minghui looked at him hesitantly, and hesitated: "Then I really sent a pair of cloth shoes to my uncle and them?" ”
Zhang Ziwen looked at her funny, "Are you planning to talk to me like this for the rest of your life?" I remember not long ago, someone shouted at me that women are half the sky, and husbands and wives should be equal. ”
Mao Minghui smiled and said: "In other words, such a sentence makes you never forget." If I don't consult with you in any of my own ideas, believe it or not, my mother will cut me? I can see that you are her own son, and I picked it up from outside. ”
"It's okay, doesn't my mother like to come upside down like my mother, she doesn't like you too. Okay now, you have a topic again, you can stick together all day long, no longer have to talk about me, what hasn't been said yet, this is going to start urging again. ”
Mao Minghui smiled when she heard this. Her mother-in-law has a cheerful personality, is open-minded, and has one thing to say, she won't do one thing in front of her and one thing behind her back, how can she not like it?
Especially the eldest aunt, the second aunt or a lot of things, either a few words of sour self with insinuations, or when relying on the "guidance" of the old and selling the old, he was scolded by his mother-in-law again and again.
Hey...... She likes such a mother-in-law, not like her mother, who lives under the siege of concubines all her life and sulks afterwards.
As the only daughter in the family, she is still the eldest, although she was also spoiled by her parents like her sister-in-law, but the most powerless thing about her is that no matter whether the elders in the next room act right or wrong, she has to be pressured by her parents to apologize on the grounds of tutoring.
If you want her to say, some people, some people you put up with them, they will get more inches, it is better to tear their faces and never interact again.
"What do you think? Let's go and come back quickly, it's too late, uh......" Zhang Ziwen was halfway through his words, the cucumber egg subconsciously blushed, and his eyes dodged and ordered, "More sets of padded jackets, it's cold outside." ”
A couple put on their coats and went out of the new house in the east wing, only to find that the family was gone, and there was really room for them and the couple.
Seeing this, Mao Minghui blushed even more, lowered his head and took the lead in walking to the door to wait for him to come out.
