Chapter 117: Marriage of Flowers and Branches

August 22, the day when the flowers and branches go out.

Cui'er got up early in the morning, made breakfast, and put on beautiful clothes for the big girl and Xiaohu, and then hurriedly went to Aunt Lu's house, and asked Lian Qingshan to take the child to eat the noodles later.

When Cui'er arrived at the door of Aunt Lu's house, she saw that Aunt Lu had already gotten up and was sitting outside by the stove that had been erected to open the table.

"Auntie is busy so early?" Cui'er looked at Aunt Lu's clothes that were still usual, except that her hair was combed more neatly than usual, there seemed to be no change, if you didn't look at her eyes that were already slightly red.

"Cui'er is here, you come over and help me look at the fire, and when the pot is boiled later, I will steam the button meat." Aunt Lu snorted, stood up, and said to Cui'er.

"Okay, Auntie, leave it to me, I will definitely help you make the banquet a complete one." Cui'er smiled comfortingly at Aunt Lu, and said, "Auntie, go wash your face, eat something more, and go out later, you still have to be busy." ”

"Hey!" Aunt Lu walked into the house with red circles under her eyes, and as she walked, she couldn't stop wiping her eyes in her hands, the daughter she had raised for so many years was about to get married, and her heart was like eating a basket of green plums, which was sour.

Cui'er looked at Aunt Lu's back, and her heart was slightly sour, thinking that her eldest girl was already eight years old, and she wanted to follow the rules of marriage this year, and in another seven or eight years, the eldest girl would get married. Thinking of the lively little girl, who would marry someone else's family as a daughter-in-law in a few years, Cui'er's heart also pinched, and she could really feel the mood of Aunt Lu's daughter to marry out.

At this time, Aunt Chunzhu, who was helping, also came with their daughter-in-law Zhang, and when she saw Cui'er sitting in the yard, she walked over happily, "Cui'er came so early." ”

"Yes. Aunt Chunzhu is here! Cui'er stood up and said hello, then took Zhang's hand and asked her to work together.

When the Zhang family was busy going to light the fire, Cui'er pulled Aunt Chunzhu. whispered next to her, "Aunt Lu may be reluctant to flower branches, I saw that she was red-eyed when I came just now, my aunt went over to persuade her." ”

"Okay, I'll take care of that." Aunt Chunzhu saw that Cui'er was cautious, so she also became serious, nodded and explained to her daughter-in-law, and went to the back room.

Cui'er had Zhang's help to light the fire, so she went to Aunt Lu's warehouse and took out the flower rolls she had prepared yesterday. Put it on another cage drawer and steam it, boiled it with thin bud rice stubble, cut a plate of shredded pickles, poured some sesame oil on it, and then turned around and went to gather all the meat and vegetables for the banquet.

Which dishes are to be washed. Which dishes are to be oiled, what dishes do you need to make, Cui'er sorted them out one by one, and chatted with Zhang's again, saving herself in case she was too busy, and there was no one in this cooking place. Seeing that the water that Aunt Lu wanted was boiling, she cut the meat she had done before. Put it on the cage drawer and steam it.

When the meat, vegetables and vegetables were almost tidied up, the daughter-in-law who helped in front came a few more, and Cui'er asked them to start washing and chopping vegetables, and began to prepare the banquet later.

After working for a while to prepare for the banquet, it was already dawn, and Cui'er thought that Huazhi must not have eaten early in the morning. And after arriving at Zheng's house, I don't know when she will be able to eat, so after thinking about it, she scrambled an egg, looked at the fried meat segments, and slipped a meat segment into the plate with a pot.

At this time. Cui'er thought that the flower branch should have been almost cleaned up, so she put out the hot flower rolls just now, the bud batter and meat segments, eggs, and pickles, put them in the tray, and took the time to go into the boudoir of the flower branches.

Thinking that Huazhi was about to get married, Cui'er's heart was still a little sour, and when she walked to the door, she looked at Huazhi sitting on a chair wearing a red wedding dress, the crimson face against the red background, and the undisguised joy on her face, which made Cui'er's heart slowly settle down.

Marrying, for a woman, is another new life, then the three sons of the Du family in Litou Village are a good one, Huazhi will definitely be happy when he marries, in this case, why be sad and sad? It's just that it's far away and there are fewer meetings, as long as you know that she is good there, it's better than anything else.

Thinking like this, the smile on Cui'er's face widened, and she no longer hesitated, and entered the house with a tray.

"Sister Cui'er......" Huazhi saw Cui'er standing at the door, and hurriedly called, Quanfu woman was helping her comb her hair, which made her scalp hurt, and when she called Cui'er, her voice was a little out of tune.

"I'm just going to come in and have a look." Cui'er looked at Huazhi while holding up the pain in her scalp while looking at herself persistently, shyly and pitiful, she couldn't help but burst out laughing, and put the tray on the table next to her, "Looking at you like this, I always feel like you haven't grown up, but I didn't expect that you would get married in a blink of an eye." ”

Cui'er's voice was a little stunned, but more relieved, as if her sister was going to get married when she grew up, and she was relieved and reluctant.

"Sister......" Huazhi took Cui'er's hand and shook it, her black eyes blinked, and her usually black and pretty face was coated with thick powder because she was going to get married, plus her little lips were painted red, but she didn't have the playful appearance of a country girl, and she was a little more Sven.

"If you paint your face white, it doesn't look like it's black and pretty, our flower branches have become white beauties!" Cui'er looked at Huazhi's appearance and couldn't help but quip.

"Sister...... Why does my sister keep teasing me! Hua Zhi shook Cui'er's hand unrelentingly, but because she was still combing her hair at the back, she suddenly pulled her hair, and she frowned in pain.

"Don't move, I'm just coming in to see you, and if you're not honest, I'll go out." Cui'er looked at Huazhi a little carried away, and couldn't help but say with a tiger face.

"Sister......" Hua Zhi called Cui'er with a bitter face, looking at the tray that Cui'er had just put on the table, she couldn't help but swallow her saliva, "Sister, are your flower rolls hot for me to eat?" There are meat segments and scrambled eggs, so fragrant......"

"You comb your hair first, and then take a few bites." Cui'er said to Huazhi, then turned her head to greet the Quanfu woman, "Fifth aunt." This flower roll and vegetables are enough, you can rest for a while after combing your hair, eat something and cushion the mat, and wait for the feast to begin. Please take a seat again! ”

"Good, good!" The Quanfu woman, who was called the fifth aunt, nodded with a smile, but her subordinates continued to comb Huazhi's hair without any ambiguity, and she grinned at Huazhi.

Cui'er delivered the meal, looking at Huazhi's ageless appearance, she couldn't help but instruct her carefully, "Huazhi, after you arrive at your mother-in-law's house, you must be steady, then the three elders of the Zheng family are good." You treat him well, the husband and wife have a good discussion, and live a harmonious life. As she spoke, Cui'er felt that her heart was sour again, and she looked at Huazhi and nodded solemnly. He didn't say anything more, looked at it for a while, and then turned his head and went out.

When she got outside, Cui'er was too busy to remember and felt sad.

The guests outside have arrived one after another, adults and children, standing in the courtyard, sitting on the edge of the table, and there is a lot of noise. Cui'er beckoned the ladies and daughters-in-law who were cooking, cut the cold dishes and mix them up. After the flavor is adjusted, put them on a plate one by one.

After the cold dishes are ready, it is time to prepare the hot dishes, and at this time, the steamed button meat is also ready, so I put the half-cooked chicken stewed yesterday in the pot, add potatoes and mushrooms and the like to continue the stew.

There are also fried Sixi meatballs. It was also steamed in the cage drawer, and there were too many things to do to stir-fry the vegetables and soups that should be made, and Cui'er commanded four or five women to start work at the same time, although not to the point of being very busy. But he didn't have the heart to think about anything else.

Just when Cui'er was busy working, the guests had already arrived one after another, and even Qingshan was holding Xiaohu and leading the big girl over, Cui'er just said a few words to them, and then was called away to work again.

When Cui'er heard the crackling sound of firecrackers in the midst of her busyness, she realized that the groom had arrived.

Red firecracker confetti fell all over the ground, children happily ran around at the door, a young student in a big red dress, sitting on a small donkey, kicked and trampled to the gate of the Lu family, and then jumped off the donkey, and came to the gate of the Lu family in full clothes.

"The groom is here, the groom is here!" The children shouted and laughed and watched the excitement in front of and behind the crowd, while the adults crowded to the door to see how to block the door and intercept the groom. It's just that the children blocking the door haven't come out yet, and the defense at the gate is very empty.

The three boys of the Zheng family, the groom's official, looked black and strong, and seemed to be a capable worker, wearing a bright red dress with a black face, and he couldn't see what he looked like, but he felt that it was a black face with a mouthful of white teeth.

He stood at the gate and looked left and right, but he didn't mean to rush inside, it seems that the third boy of the Zheng family is kind, but he doesn't know if he will be good to Huazhi in the future. Cui'er thought secretly in her heart, and turned her head to look at the boys who had arranged to block the door.

At this time, a group of teenage boys rushed to the gate and stood in a row to stop there, one of them was Aunt Lu's youngest son, Huazhi's younger brother, and the other was a small yam, and the other children didn't know each other.

"The groom waits first, and after passing our pass, he can go in to pick up the bride!" Huazhi's younger brother, Huaizhi, stood there with his waist crossed and shouted.

"Oh, this kid, don't call your brother-in-law the groom's official ......," the adult next to him said coaxingly.

"When you enter the house, you will be called brother-in-law only when you marry my sister!" Huai Zhi raised his neck and said arrogantly.

"Good, good...... How do you say this level will pass? The three boys of the Du family knew that this was their brother-in-law, and asked with a very good temper, Cui'er was far away, and he didn't know what Huaizhi asked, which made everyone laugh, and the three boys of the Du family successfully passed the gate and entered the yard.

The rest of the things, Cui'er didn't have time to see the excitement, because after the bride got married, the courtyard was about to open, and the most noisy time in the boudoir was also the busiest time for the women who bought the food.

After a while, I saw Aunt Lu's eldest son Songzhi coming out with a flower branch on his back, and the bride sang auspicious words while leading the bride and groom out of the gate, and sent the flower branch to the back of the donkey, and left the Lu family with a blow.

The door of the Lu family was closed after the flower branch left, and before closing the door, Aunt Lu also poured half a basin of water at the door, which means that the water splashed by the married daughter will be someone else's person in the future.

Aunt Lu had red eyes, and led everyone to a banquet with Uncle Lu, because of Cui'er's care, this banquet was decent and thoughtful, and the people who came to the banquet were full of praise.

When it was time for the next day, the people who ate the noodles dispersed, Cui'er finished cleaning up the remaining meat and vegetables, and after explaining to Aunt Lu, she felt tired and sore, and said a word to Aunt Lu, and then rubbed her waist and went home, without even eating a bite of rice.
