On the day of the Chinese New Year's Eve, Han Mingxiu got up early in the morning, took Xiaosuo and Xiaoying with them, pasted couplets and money at home.

Their fathers and mothers in this life have been dead for three years, the filial piety period has passed, and the family can paste couplets and hang money.

Han Mingcui also got up early in the morning and wrapped her sister with her favorite sauerkraut and pork stuffed dumplings. This is the last year my sister has spent at home, and she has to make a good show and tell her sister to have a good year.

In addition to her sister's favorite sauerkraut oil dumplings, she also made four dishes, a smoked rabbit meat, (this smoked rabbit meat is still the rabbit that Gao Guangbin got into the mountain two days ago, and sent them two), cut a plate of crystal skin jelly, steamed a chicken cake, and fried a plate of braised pork belly.

During the meal, Han Mingcui said to her sister step by step: "Xiu'er, you are going to get married tomorrow, and when you get married, you have to get along with Jianfeng and his uncle and aunt, people are elders, if there is anything deep and shallow, don't be more serious with others......"

When Han Mingxiu heard the eldest sister's remarks, the corners of her mouth twitched, and she thought in her heart: You are filial to your elders and respect your in-laws, but what happened in the end? It's not that there is no place for others to be bullied.

It's enough to teach her this theory!

Regarding the issue of filial piety to her in-laws or filial piety to her elders, Han Mingxiu's attitude has always been very clear, that is, who treats her.

If it is the kind of old man with noble character, kindness and generosity, she will definitely abide by the identity of the younger generation and respect it well. But if it's the kind of old man who is more and more crooked, she won't respect it!

The eldest sister saw that she lowered her head and didn't speak, and thought that she had listened to her words, so she continued: "When a girl gets married, her mother's family usually prepares a few boxes as a dowry, but our father and mother are gone, and I have no place to go to the box, so you can take the fifty yuan, as the dowry given to you by the sister." ”

Han Mingcui took out fifty yuan from his pocket and put it on the kang quilt beside Han Mingxiu.

It took her months to save up enough money. Don't look at her usual careful, she is reluctant to spend a penny, but for her sister, she is willing to do everything she can.

Because her sister is not only her relative, but also her benefactor, if she didn't have her sister, she wouldn't have the job she has now, maybe she would still be begging for a living in Lao Wang's house, in that case, she might not be able to live a miserable life, and even Xiaomeizi is not in the world now!

Han Mingxiu saw that the eldest sister actually gave her a dowry of fifty yuan, and knew that the eldest sister had given her everything, and hurriedly said: "Eldest sister, I am not short of money, the old Huo family gave me a hundred a few days ago, and my aunt also gave me sixty-six, and Huo Jianfeng usually mailed me, I now have more than 200 yuan, you can keep this money for yourself, the child grows up day by day, and there will be more places to use the money in the future, you can keep it yourself." ”

"It's okay, anyway, I have a job, and I can save again when the money is gone, you will get married this time in your life, let my sister do something to you." Han Mingcui saw that she didn't accept it, so she insisted on persuading her to accept it.

Han Mingxiu really doesn't want it, she's about to leave here, the eldest sister is a woman pulling a few children, if she doesn't have some money around her, what if something happens? There is no one who can help with the previous one, and it can be better if you have a little money. If you don't have any money, something will happen, and you won't be waiting for long eyes.

Therefore, she resolutely cannot accept this money.

She thought for a while and said, "Otherwise, you can leave ten catties and eight catties of meat left over from the house, and give me the rest as a dowry, if you still feel that it is less, you can keep the eggs at home for you to eat, and give me the rest, and the meat and eggs will be enough for fifty yuan combined." ”

She left 30 catties of pork for her uncle yesterday, and the rest was pulled back, totaling more than 120 catties. Now pork has risen to four cents a catty, and this meat is worth almost fifty yuan. Add in those eggs, duck eggs and goose eggs at home, fifty yuan is more than enough.

Han Mingcui thought it was strange when she heard that she was going to use this meat as a dowry, but considering that the value of these meat and eggs was about the same as fifty yuan, she didn't take it seriously.

Since my sister wants meat and eggs as a dowry, then let her go, my sister is delicious, in case the old Huo family's food is not good, take more meat over, you can also make her hungry, right?

In fact, the reason why Han Myung-so wants these meat and eggs is just in case. She was afraid that Huo Jianfeng's aunt would have some kind of moth temporary, and the banquet would be shabby, so Jianfeng would be so faceless in front of the villagers, and their wedding would not be good.

So, bring some meat and eggs, just in case.

After breakfast, she asked Xiaoying to help her light the fire and start cooking the meat, pot after pot. I also relied on a lot of oil shuttles, and boiled two large pots of frozen rice with the remaining pork skin, and boiled those eggs......

This is a big project, a hundred catties of meat, she boiled two-thirds, and it took several pots to finish. The third relied on oil shuttles, plus boiled eggs, duck eggs, and goose eggs, and worked from morning to evening......

**

The next day is the first day of the Lunar New Year, and it is also the day Han Mingxiu officially got married.

At more than four o'clock in the morning, Han Mingcui woke Han Mingxiu up from the bed, and after helping her dress up neatly, she cooked a pot of dumplings for her, told her to eat to her heart's content, and waited for Huo Jianfeng to pick her up.

The people who came to see off their relatives also arrived one after another, including the two captains, the two women's directors, the accountants of the production team, and several respected old people in the village, as well as Han Mingxiu's uncle's family and second aunt's family......

Although she usually doesn't walk around with her uncle and second aunt at all, she doesn't get along as stinky as she gets along with her second uncle and aunt, so it makes sense for her to let her uncle and second aunt participate in her good day of marriage.

After all, it's relatives, and it's not good to be too stiff and good-looking, so it's good to keep a big face and not let others see jokes.

In addition, Zhang Lao Batun'er's Gao Guangbin's father and daughter also came, and they were invited by Han Mingxiu.

Han Mingxiu has always hoped that the eldest sister can take another step forward with Gao Guangbin, so that she doesn't have to worry about the eldest sister even if she gets married. Otherwise, the eldest sister's temperament is so soft, she is really afraid that when she is not at home, the eldest sister will be bullied, if the eldest sister can form a family with Gao Guangbin, Gao Guangbin can protect her and several children and not let her be bullied......

At half past seven, Huo Jianfeng came to Sun Aotun in a carriage. The carriage belonged to their Xiaodongshan production team, and the captain of the production team specially approved him to come and pick up the bride.

In addition, Wang Wenyuan also borrowed the carriage of the Sijiawazi production team to follow. These two carriages, one is for the bride and groom, and the other is for the mother's family and (guest), the two big carriages entered Sun Aotun majestically, and immediately attracted the attention of the children who were running wildly outside.

When Sun Aotun's children saw the strange carriage entering the village, with a big red flower hanging around the horse's neck, they knew that they were here to pick up the bride. Then he scrambled in front of the carriage and went to Han Mingxiu's house to report the news.

As soon as Han Mingcui'er heard that Huo Jianfeng had arrived, she hurriedly took out a red scarf prepared in advance and put it on Han Mingxiu's head, treating it as a hijab.

After Huo Jianfeng entered the house, he saw the delicate bride under the red scarf.

Today, Han Mingxiu is wearing the burgundy cotton jacket and light green cotton pants that Sister He Li bought for her, which looks better and smarter than on the twenty-ninth day.

Huo Jianfeng walked up to her, lowered his head and said with a light smile: "Xiu'er, I'm here to pick you up." ”

Han Mingxiu also laughed when she heard this, and before she could answer, the villagers of Sun Aotun all shouted jokingly: "Xiu'er, you can't just nod your head like this, our Sun Aotun girl is not so easy to marry." ”

"Xiu'er is the best girl in our tunzi, if you want to marry back easily, it's not that easy!"

Huo Jianfeng knew what they were messing with, so he waved at Dachao, and Dachao served a small basket covered with a towel.

Huo Jianfeng ripped off the towel on the small basket, which was full of candy, peanuts and melon seeds. He scattered the basket of things on the kang and said loudly: "I invite everyone to eat candy!" ”

At this time, the villagers in the house all rushed up to grab candy, peanuts and melon seeds.

Wang Wenyuan also stepped forward and handed a small box to Huo Jianfeng. Huo Jianfeng opened the box, and inside was a box full of filter cigarettes. Huo Jianfeng also scattered these cigarettes on the kang, attracting the men to rush up to grab the cigarettes, which was very lively.

After agreeing to these villagers, Dahuo finally agreed to let Han Mingxiu and Huo Jianfeng go.

Han Mingcui spread the new quilt made by the two sisters on the carriage, and Wang Wenyuan had already laid an old quilt on the carriage in advance, so that their new quilt would not stick to the carriage.
