Chapter 362: Han Mingcui is married
Huo Jianfeng only took five days off, and after the old lady's funeral, he had to go back to the army immediately.
Han Mingxiu didn't want to go back with him, the eldest sister would get married in eight days, and she wanted to attend the eldest sister's wedding before leaving.
Huo Jianfeng didn't worry about her staying, if she wasn't pregnant, just let her stay. But now that she is still pregnant, let her go back to Hei Province so far away, get in and out of the car, and squeeze and insert, he is not at ease.
Han Mingxiu told him: "I don't take the train to leave, and when I leave, I will ask my second brother-in-law to drive me." ”
As soon as Huo Jianfeng heard that he was asking Lin Hongwei to send her, he was relieved and reluctantly agreed to her staying.
The day after the old lady was buried, Huo Jianfeng went back to Hei Province alone, and Han Mingxiu stayed behind and talked about the eldest sister's marriage with the eldest sister.
In fact, according to the meaning of the eldest sister and eldest brother-in-law, it is simply to set up one table or two tables, please invite the immediate family members and village cadres to have a meal, but Yu Guizhen disagrees and has to do a big job.
If you do a lot of work, then this wedding will be troublesome.
The wedding feast had to prepare a lot of chewing wraps, and you had to hire cooks, invite busy people, go from house to house to borrow tables, chairs, benches, dishes, chopsticks and pans, and find some women to help with the chores......
Yu Guizhen's popularity in Tunli is not good, Han Mingcui doesn't interact with people much on weekdays, although Gao Guangbin is honest, but after all, he is a newcomer and is not familiar with the people in Tunli.
In this way, this wedding can only be arranged by Han Mingxiu.
Han Mingxiu taught everyone how to breed earthworms and led the villagers on the road to prosperity. Everyone is very grateful to her, so she has a certain prestige and status in the tunzi, and as long as she opens her mouth, the villagers can basically respond.
So, Han Mingxiu got up and booked the chef, the busy ones, and the women who helped with the chores also had to be booked.
As for chewing and wrapping, it's June, and the greens in the field have grown. However, it is limited to green leafy vegetables such as bok choy and radishes, and fruity vegetables such as persimmons and peppers have not yet grown.
She prepared a dipping pickle, a quail stewed potato, a spiced quail egg, a bacon fried bean sprouts, a mapo tofu, and a salted pork fried shredded potatoes.
Among them, the quail and quail eggs were bought when she came back last time, and she kept them for her eldest sister when she got married.
Because she bought enough, on the day of her wedding, these two dishes were the main dishes.
The other dishes, although not hard, are reasonable. Such a table, although it can't be compared with the one when she got married, but compared with other people's banquets, it can be regarded as passable.
In fact, she has meat in her space, but she wants to take out some to give her eldest sister face, but she doesn't have the opportunity or excuse to take it.
She is now pregnant, and it is inconvenient for her to go out. If you don't get pregnant, you can pretend to go to the city and come back with a basket of meat.
But now, she is less than three months pregnant, she doesn't dare to walk so far from Sun Aotun to the town, let alone squeeze the bus, she can't take her baby for a banquet to take risks, right?
So, that's all the way it can be!
The eldest sister and eldest brother-in-law wore a lichen on the wedding day, all of which were made of fabric sent by Han Mingxiu, the eldest sister made a water-pink lapel cover, a pair of beige pants, and the eldest brother-in-law made a set of iron-gray tunics, and the two of them wore this new dress, and it is estimated that they can be four or five years younger.
A few little girls also made a new skirt for each of them, and also made a dress for Xiao Suo and the old lady, and the whole family was wearing a new one, which looked festive.
Soon, the wedding day arrived.
On the day of the wedding, early in the morning, the people who came to congratulate him were almost blocked at the door, half of which were Sun Aotun's and the other half were Zhang Laobatun's.
Gao Guangbin has lived in Zhang Lao Batun for twenty or thirty years, and there are many old relatives and friends.
The wedding started lively, setting off firecrackers and wearing saffron, the grandeur was no worse than that of the newly married, and no matter what aspect it compared, it could crush the wedding of Wang Manchu's second marriage.
Han Mingcui and Gao Guangbin walked side by side to the chairman's statue, solemnly swore an oath in front of the chairman and his old man, and gave Yu Guizhen tea according to the old rules, and since then, the two have officially become husband and wife!
Han Mingxiu saw that the eldest sister had finally found her happiness, and she was happy and excited, from now on, she no longer had to be afraid that the eldest sister would be bullied, and she no longer had to worry about their mother being wronged, because the eldest brother-in-law would be like a big tree, sheltering them from the wind and rain, and holding up a piece of heaven for them, and from then on, the eldest sister's life will be happy......
They are happy, but Huo Changsheng and Xifeng are not very happy at the moment.
Today is a good day, Huo Changsheng and Xifeng's wedding is also scheduled for today, early in the morning, when Huo Changsheng rushed to his father-in-law's house to pick up his daughter-in-law, Xifeng was making trouble with her father.
It turned out that the 550 yuan bride price given by the Huo family was withheld by Xifeng's father.
Xifeng's father and mother Zhen Zhen said: "We raised you so big, and found you a mother-in-law, why did your mother-in-law give us a little dowry?" It's not as it should be! Otherwise, we will feed you in vain? ”
This is another typical family that treats the girl as an outsider, the father and mother don't take the girl seriously, and they don't care what kind of treatment the girl will receive if she brings back the bride price to her in-law's house, just card the girl's bride price, as long as they get the money, they don't care about the rest.
Xifeng is also counting on using the money to buy a house in the city and become a city person. If the money was secretly kept secret by his father, wouldn't her dream be shattered?
She didn't say anything, and got into trouble with her parents.
When Huo Changsheng heard that his father-in-law and mother-in-law wanted to keep so much money secret, he didn't agree. urinated with his daughter-in-law and asked his father-in-law and mother-in-law for money.
His father-in-law and mother-in-law are all Pixiu, and they only have hands that can't get in but can't go, so how can the money come out when it reaches their hands?
There was no way, so the little couple had to go to the captain of the production team.
Later, under the coordination of the captain, and under the coercion that they were going to the commune to complain, his father-in-law and mother-in-law finally relented, gave them 250 yuan, and scolded them, telling them that they would not be happy to return to this house in the future.
This side of Xiaodongshan
Aunt Huo saw that the time had come, but her son and daughter-in-law waited left and right and didn't come back, and she was in a hurry, when someone suddenly came to tell her that Changsheng had taken her daughter-in-law and came back.
When Aunt Huo heard that her son had brought her daughter-in-law back, she was overjoyed and hurriedly greeted her.
When I arrived outside, I saw my daughter-in-law's eyes red and swollen and she walked down from the carriage, and there was not a single cabinet on the carriage, only a small baggage.
It can be seen that that little burden is the daughter-in-law's dowry.
Aunt Huo looked at her son's daughter-in-law's dowry, and her face suddenly turned bad, but for the sake of her son, she didn't show it too obviously, so she suppressed the unhappiness in her heart, let her daughter-in-law into the house, and opened a banquet.
This banquet is very decent, chicken, duck and fish are available, and there is enough rice.
When I gave Xifeng a dowry before, I had already hollowed her out, and the money for this banquet was still the gift money that the old lady received when she passed away a few days ago.
Aunt Huo didn't keep any money for her son, but with the money for the banquet, she also slaughtered all the chickens, ducks and geese at home and added vegetables. She did this for nothing else, first, she really felt sorry for her son and wanted to give him a beautiful wedding; The second is that she doesn't want her son's wedding to be compared to the wedding of that white-eyed wolf.
The white-eyed wolf's wedding has wine and meat, and her son's wedding must also have wine and meat, and it must have more wine and meat than the white-eyed wolf, and it must not be compared to him.
Such a sumptuous banquet did not allow her to recover much of the gift money. After all, when the old lady passed away a few days ago, the villagers had just been at her house, and the rites were one after another, who could stand it?
So when I came to the banquet this time, we rarely had money, and most of them took two catties of noodles, two catties of rice or some eggs and grains, which was regarded as a gift.
Aunt Huo looked at the piles of noodles, white noodles, eggs and rice, and then looked at the villagers who dragged their families to eat her, and her heart was almost vomited blood, and she gritted her teeth and finished the happy event.
After the happy event, the villagers left, and Aunt Huo had time to ask her daughter-in-law why she was unhappy when she came, why her eyes were red and swollen, as if she was crying.
Huo Changsheng told her about his father-in-law's secret 300 yuan bride price, and when Aunt Huo heard that the 550 yuan was deducted from 300 yuan, her distressed eyes turned black and she almost fainted!
Three hundred dollars, how young does she have to be to save it!
