Chapter Ninety-Nine: Gifts

After playing mahjong for a long time, I had lunch at Uncle Li's house, and when I saw that the time was half past two, Wang Dao went to the construction site. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

Uncle Tan is also going to give a gift, and one of his cousins will have his fiftieth birthday tomorrow, so he will go early tonight.

This piece of wedding, birthday such a thing, collectively referred to as "service", invited to participate in the person called "gift", after the banquet, there are special people to register the guest gift, the gift of the person called "writing the account", "on the account".

The word "account" is used well, and the exchange of favors is also an account, and the money used is the money, which must be calculated well, and cannot be messed up, and it is not good to continue to communicate after the chaos.

There are a lot of things to do, the child does the full moon, the child has to "give birth" when he is one year old, and then he has to do it on his tenth birthday before the age of 60, and he takes nine after the age of 60, and of course the funeral after the death of the child.

Let's not talk about getting married, it's a big event, and it must be done big, some of which are admitted to college, and some of which are not.

Newly built houses, when the main beam is erected, it is called "upper beam", to do things, the joy of housewarming also to do things again, of course, now there are also two into one.

The upper beam is more interesting, to throw steamed buns down the roof, sprinkle sugar, everyone grabs below, now there are fewer such things, mainly because everyone's living conditions are good, and there is no desire to grab food.

If it is a male baby, it will be "shaved red" at the age of six.

After the boy is born, the piece of hair on the back of his head has been retained, and as the hair grows, there will be a braid.

When it is the sixth birthday, you can shave the braids, indicating that the child is safe and will not die young, which is called "shaving the red head".

Overall, a bit too much, but not too much.

Unlike some places, sows have to give birth to cubs and buy cars, which can no longer be simply said to be too much, it is already sick.

What's better is that the amount of gifts from Wang Daojia is not large, one or two hundred neighbors, three or five hundred relatives, of course, there are more, but relatively few.

Although it was not explicitly stated, everyone tacitly controlled the amount of gifts, and did not compare with each other, and the gift money was more reasonable.

Of course, there are exceptions, such as when the prince dies, the amount of gifts is twice the usual, and there are also more than three or five times ten times. In fact, this is what everyone uses to help the village kings live.

Because everyone is usually very busy now, basically everything is done during the Chinese New Year, so the gifts will be very concentrated.

is like Grandpa Tan's family, because Uncle Tan's cousin celebrated his fiftieth birthday on the second day of junior high school, so the family had to go on the night of the first day of the new year.

The day of the errand here is called "Shori", but the night before is to go, it is called "warm wine".

Warm, warm up, everyone goes over to be lively first, usually relatives and close friends go, and the next day is all the people who are invited.

Generally, the drinking of warm wine is held at home, and if you run errands in the hotel, then the drinking of warm wine will be canceled.

When you go to drink warm wine, depending on the specific relationship, see if you want to buy a gift firecracker.

For example, for birthdays, it is generally relatives who are siblings who buy a full set of shoes and clothes, birthday cakes, and firecrackers.

When I arrived at the host's house, the guest put a whip and informed the host that I had arrived and hurried to greet him.

The main family followed behind and put a whip, which means that I know, everyone is welcome, please hurry to the door.

It's not just a lively and auspicious picture, but also these implications.

After eating the feast and writing the account, the lord's family should prepare a gift in return.

Get married back to two bags of sugar, or a box of double sugar. A full moon is four or six red eggs, which are hard-boiled egg shells painted with red pigment.

Therefore, when you get married, you also say that you invite people to eat candy, and inviting people to full moon wine is also called eating red eggs.

The old man makes longevity, generally two bowls and four or six longevity peaches.

Now with the change of the times, the return gift is also changing, and there are also daily necessities, such as laundry detergent, soap, etc.

Although the financial and time constraints are very high due to the centralized ceremony, it is also a good opportunity for relatives and friends to get together.

Now busy with work and fast pace of life, even if relatives live far away, they can't see each other a few times a year, let alone friends.

Generally, the circle of friends is basically fixed, so if a friend has something to do, there will be many friends present, and everyone can get together without making an appointment.

If it weren't for arranging for someone from the company to help give gifts, Wang Dao should also go to give gifts, because there are four or five companies doing things every day from the second to the sixth day of junior high school.

For Wang Dao, it is not appropriate to go to any house or not.

So he simply arranged for the company's people to help give gifts, and if no one arrived, the face must be there, and no one could gossip.

All those who help with the gift are voluntary.

Wang Dao did not treat everyone at a bad price, and the flying car was used as a car to provide the whole family with the funds to play in Jinling.

It is still cost-effective to use an hour or two instead of royal gifts, and then play with the whole family at public expense.

On the second day of junior high school, at eight o'clock in the morning, an ordinary family in a neighboring town got married.

The man's family is a powerful official in Heyin County, and the parents look down on the woman's family situation, and the groom's attitude is very good, after all, it is true love.

The chief manager who accompanied the bridegroom was a bureau chief under the groom's father, and standing near him were all the directors and section chiefs of the bureau, all of whom were nostrils facing the sky and were very proud.

"Gee, what's so good about these? Everyone is ready to prepare, ready to take the bride back to the new house! The steward looked at the sky and raised his head to the bride's father.

When the bride's father heard this, he was very unhappy, but for the sake of his daughter's future life, he still held back.

Zou frowned, and the bride's father said: "This has just arrived, you haven't eaten yet, and the two children haven't toasted with relatives and friends, so it's not appropriate to leave like this, right?" ”

"What's out of place, huh? Do you know that the wedding banquet at noon was attended by the secretary and county magistrate! Are you going to let the secretary and county magistrate because of these people, etc.? The director said contemptuously.

The bride's father's face immediately turned red, looking angry and helpless, if it weren't for the fact that his daughter and the groom were really in love, he wouldn't have been angry.

"Dawangzhuang in Qingsang Town, the prince's family sent a congratulatory gift to a pair of beautiful people! Happy New Year! ”

A loud voice came from the air, causing everyone to stop their movements and look up.

A flying car landed at the gate of the courtyard, the door opened, and Li Jia walked in with two people holding congratulatory gifts.

Seeing the bride's father, Li Jia asked with a smile, "You are the bride's father, right?" ”

Although he was confused, the bride's father nodded yes, he didn't react at all, what the hell was going on.

Li Jia smiled a little brighter and said: "We are here to congratulate you on behalf of the royal road of Dawangzhuang, congratulations!" Don't mind if we ask for a drink? ”

The bride's father finally reacted and said excitedly: "Of course I don't mind, welcome, hurry up and take a seat, this is just the beginning of the table." ”

Li Jiaqiao said with a smile: "Don't worry, can you take us to meet today's bride?" Mr. Wang prepared some gifts for them, but I was afraid that I would send them after the banquet, which would delay some people's time! ”

After speaking, he glanced meaningfully at the supervisor next to him who was trembling and looking incredulous.

The bride's father nodded happily: "Okay, come with me, she is still in the boudoir, ready to come out to toast." But there's no rush to toast, come with me. ”

As he spoke, he led the three of them to the bride's boudoir, completely ignoring the pale-faced wedding supervisor and the group of wedding greeters.

The boudoir was full of festive joy, and the groom and the bride's good friends were all inside, and everyone looked very happy to see the groom giving the bride a thrush.

"Little Bear, Xiaoyu, this is the king of Dawangzhuang who asked people to send you a congratulatory gift, you come to meet!" As soon as he entered the door, the bride's father shouted at the bride and groom.

Everyone didn't react, they were just joking about the groom's thrush technique, and they didn't notice the movement outside.

Someone asked directly: "Who is the royal road of Dawangzhuang?" ”
