CHAPTER XXVI

The preparations for the marriage are in full swing, and the old people in the village have watched Wang Zhili grow up, so he is going to get married, and he is happy and many people come to help. There is no old man in Cheng Qing's family, except for Niansi's father, all the aunts came to teach Qing to serve her husband's words, and Cheng Qing was very grateful.

On the third day of the ninth lunar month, many aunts stayed in the courtyard of Cheng Qing's house to chat and talk, Cheng Qing liked this atmosphere very much, let Xiaoyun and Niansi prepare to eat, and let the aunts eat while working.

Uncle Liu thought about Cheng Qing as if he was marrying his own son: "Are you ready to be happy?" There are all kinds of bowls and basins that can't be dropped, are you happy to put them away? If there is anything you haven't done, don't forget, it's not good to be happy when the time comes. ”

"Dad, don't worry, Xiaoyun and I are ready for these things, and we won't miss Brother Cheng's happy event."

"You're still young, and you're always lost." Uncle Liu still didn't feel at ease, so he asked Niansi to take him to see it again.

Cheng Qing looked at it and felt very ironed in his heart, and the rest of the aunts laughed: "Now you are in such a hurry, you will marry your son in the future, I think you are going to move the whole family to him!" ”

Uncle Liu left in a hurry, and he didn't hear the laughter of the aunts.

"Cheng Qing, who will marry you when the time comes?"

Cheng Qing doesn't seem to have any brothers and sisters, so the people in the village are also worried about who will carry him out, after all, it is a custom, and no matter how you can't break this custom.

This Cheng Qing really didn't think about it, he didn't have a brother, so no one could carry him out, and now, Cheng Qing was really worried.

No, Cheng Qing didn't worry too much, and the person who wanted to marry him appeared.

"Congratulations!" A loud voice sounded in the courtyard, and Cheng Qing and Nian Si Xiaoyun were eating in the lobby and were deeply startled.

Cheng Qing listened to the familiar voice, and hurriedly got up and went out to see, it turned out to be Nian Minghe and Mei Yu.

"Brother Mei, why are you here?" Cheng Qing was overjoyed.

Nian Minghe raised the invitation in his hand: "You are going to get married, Mei Yu and I are here to ask for a cup of wine to drink." Not welcome? ”

"How is that possible? Come in and have dinner? ”

"Come again after eating, Lifeng and Hu Min originally came together today, but the little guy fell asleep before leaving, and I decided to come back tomorrow for fear that he would not sleep well, so I came over with Mei Yu first."

Liu Niansi and Xiaoyun hurriedly came out to greet the guests, fortunately, they had a happy event at home recently, so there were a lot of candy and small things at home, and they were not bad.

Mei Yu saw Liu Niansi and hurriedly took his hand, Liu Niansi looked confused, Nian Minghe instantly understood what he meant, and hurriedly said, "Isn't there still half a bag?" The doctor said that you are not allowed to eat more. ”

Liu Niansi remembered that that day, Young Master Mei pulled him to ask for candied fruit, and said with a smile: "Young Master Mei wants it, I will ask my father to send it tomorrow." ”

"No, it's too many!"

Mei Yu shook her head, pointed at herself and shook her head, and then pointed out the door, flashing a pair of big eyes, so that Nian Minghe had no choice.

"An An is still young, so she can't eat these things."

Mei Yu turned his head and ignored Nian Minghe, Nian Minghe could only helplessly take out a small piece of gold from his purse, and said to Niansi: "I'll ask your father to buy some candied fruit again, and you can accept this money." ”

How dare Liu Niansi accept this little gold, and hurriedly hid behind Cheng Qing.

"Isn't it to scare people with money?" Cheng Qinghu said shortly: "Forget about the silver, and take the gold, are you looking down on us?" ”

Nian Minghe smiled and said: "You misunderstood, I want to take more, we are going to the southwest in a few days, he is greedy, plus he likes to give away when he meets a child on the road, and when the time comes, his mouth will be raised, and there is no food on the road and I have to trouble me, so I want to give as much as I want." ”

Cheng Qing understood, took the gold and put it in Niansi's hand: "Go, let your father bring all the candied fruit at home, and we have to prepare the goods for a big price." ”

"It's too much..."Liu Niansi never dared to accept it.

"No more, no less, go ahead."

Liu Niansi knew that it was useless to talk to Cheng Qing like this, so he accepted it and hurried home to let his father prepare more.

Nian Minghe watched the whole house turn red and said with a smile: "I came to you two days ago and thought you would be lonely for a lifetime, but I didn't expect you to get married in a blink of an eye. ”

"I didn't expect that either." Cheng Qing said seriously: "I thought you weren't here. ”

"Originally, I wasn't there, but we temporarily went back to the capital, brought the holy metaphor to Lifeng, and just planned to go to the southwest, I heard that you were going to get married, and I thought about it, so I stayed and drank a glass of wine before leaving."

"I see, let's stay a few more days, anyway, there is still some time before getting married. Xiaoyun, go and prepare the house in the backyard. ”

"We are both men, you are a married twin, isn't it okay to live in your house?" Nian Minghe said worriedly.

Xiaoyun also objected: "Childe, it's really inappropriate. ”

"What then? I can't let you live outside, can you? Tomorrow Lifeng will come back, if he doesn't prepare a house for him, won't he blame me for being ignorant? Cheng Qing frowned.

"Childe, why don't Xiaoyun go and find his future uncle and let the two young masters live in the Wang family first?"

"Your name is Wang Zhili?" Nian Minghe vaguely remembered the name written on the invitation.

"Hmm." Cheng Qing nodded, turned to Xiaoyun and said, "Is this appropriate?" ”

"That's better than living here."

"Okay, you go and ask him."

Xiaoyun promised to go out to Wang's house to find Wang Zhili.

"Then I wronged you, there must be more chaos over there than I here, so you should bear with it." Cheng Qing said apologetically: "I really didn't think about it, I knew it should have been arranged." ”

Nian Minghe waved his hand: "It's good to have some to live in, it's not like you don't know that when we were fighting, it was good to have a bed." ”

Mei Yu also nodded, indicating that he had nothing to do with it.

Cheng Qing suddenly remembered the worries of the aunts during the day today, looking at Nian Minghe in front of him, Cheng Qing said with some distress: "Brother Nian, there is something I want to ask you for help, I don't know if it's inconvenient." ”

"Please?" Nian Minghe was puzzled: "You say, the main thing is what I can do, I can do it." ”

"You also know that when a woman gets married, her brother has to carry her out on her back, and I am alone and worried about this matter, so I want to ask you if you can carry me out on my wedding day?" Cheng Qing was extremely worried, the two of them were lucky to be able to come to his wedding, and it was really too much to have such an rude request.

Nian Minghe still thought about something: "Of course you can." You can think that it is also my great luck to let me carry you out, how can I say that I help? Don't worry, I'll leave this matter to me. ”

"Thank you." Cheng Qing said sincerely.

Mei Yu felt that she was being ignored, pulled Cheng Qing's hand, and pointed at herself, Cheng Qing, who didn't know exactly what Mei Yu was talking about, unexpectedly understood this time.

Cheng Qing said with a smile: "I remember that Young Master Mei married into the Nian family, and logically speaking, he is the same as me." ”

Mei Yu stood up angrily and glared at Cheng Qing, Cheng Qing looked back at the past without fear at all, provoking Nian Minghe to stand up and comfort Mei Yu.

Just as he was joking, Xiaoyun came with Wang Xiaoshan, Wang Xiaoshan was stunned when he saw Nian Minghe, and wanted to go to the humiliation of the day, Xiaoshan was very embarrassed to bow his head. Nian Minghe also saw Xiaoshan, and looked at Cheng Qing in confusion, Cheng Qing smiled: "I want to be Xiaoshan's father." ”

I really didn't expect it to be such a relationship, Nian Minghe likes Wang Xiaoshan very much, smart and sensible and has a spirit of not admitting defeat, he is indeed a good boy.

"What are you doing here?" Nian Minghe asked.

Wang Xiaoshan ignored Nian Minghe and ran to Cheng Qing's side: "Aunt Shuang, my father is waiting outside, saying that you have two good friends who want to live in our house, so I came to pick them up." ”

"Why didn't he come in?"

"It's not in line."

"What's the rule?" Cheng Qing smiled: "Go, your father called in, I have to tell him a few words." ”

Wang Xiaoshan went out with a smile and called his father, Wang Zhili never disobeyed what Cheng Qing said, and the matter was really special, so he entered the door.

This is the first time Cheng Qing and Wang Zhili have met after making a marriage contract, and the two of them are still a little embarrassed, but when they think of important things, they put aside this embarrassment, and said to Wang Zhili: "This is Nian Minghe, next to Mei Yu, they are all my brothers in Beijing, this time they are also for my relatives, it is inconvenient for my family to live, so I called your house." ”

"Hello two, I'm Wang Zhili." Wang Zhili's attitude of not being humble or arrogant made Nian Minghe and Mei Yu's eyes light up, no matter what, he could not panic at all in front of the word Zaijing and his brother, not that he did not love Cheng Qing but treated him like a treasure, and expressed that he would be good to Cheng Qing with his own attitude.

Nian Minghe smiled: "You and I are the same age, but I am Cheng Qing's brother, so I hope to be considerate of some rude words." ”

"It should."

Mei Yuye nodded at Wang Zhili, Wang Zhili was puzzled, but did not show too much concern.

"When the time comes, one room will be enough, and the two of them are in a special situation." Cheng Qing confessed to Wang Zhili and said: "If you have the futon, take it from me later." ”

"Okay." Wang Zhili nodded: "What about the luggage?" I'll get it for you. ”

"The luggage is still on the way, and I'll deliver it tomorrow."

"And the guests? Do you need me to prepare another house? ”

Cheng Qing shook his head: "Lifeng and Hu Min shouldn't live with me." ”

Nian Minghe pulled Wang Xiaoshan very sensibly and said with a smile: "Come, take us to your house." ”

"No, I still have to talk to Aunt Shuang..."

"What are you talking about, let's go..."Nian Minghe pulled the reluctant Wang Xiaoshan out, Xiaoyun also went to the backyard to get the futon with understanding, and Cheng Qing and Wang Zhili were left in the courtyard.

"Excuse me, you can take a trip..."The two of them got along alone, and Cheng Qing was still a little embarrassed.

Wang Zhili shook his head and said, "Your guests are here, and I should take care of them." ”

"Hmm..."
