Chapter 62: Joy Quilt
Since you have decided to hold a wedding banquet, you have to go through the old traditional rules.
In the afternoon, Li Weidong took Yu Li to the supply and marketing cooperative, and bought an enamel basin, a spittoon, and a thermos.
It's all bright red, with the word "hi" on it.
I pulled two more quilt noodles, a bright red satin surface, with a pattern of mandarin ducks playing in the water.
Red with green, it looks old-fashioned, but it is the fifteen-colored brocade quilt from Suzhou and Hangzhou, and only the landlord's old wealth can be used before liberation.
We, the working people, have also turned over and become the masters of our own homes!
These objects, together with the double bed in the house, constitute all the elements of the "Four Ones Project".
It is enough for ordinary people to marry a daughter-in-law.
However, considering that the Yu family is a 'rich' persona, Li Weidong bought two catties of Cuban sugar.
returned to the courtyard and took Yu Li's family to send candy to every house.
"Brother Wang, this is my daughter-in-law Yu Li, come and have some candy."
"An uncle, an aunt, eat candy, I wish you an early birth to a precious son."
...
Even the Yan family didn't go over.
If you want to hold a wedding banquet, you should bring gifts to your door, and you can't let people pick and choose.
"Three masters, three mothers, Xie Cheng, do you know? My daughter-in-law Yu Li. ”
“...”
“...”
“....”
The three of them were silent at the same time, and their faces were as ugly as they were.
In the end, Yan Jiedi ran forward, broke the deadlock, and said, "Brother Weidong, Sister Yu Li, I wish you a hundred years of good luck and an early birth to a noble son." ”
"Hey, it's still Sister Xie Di who is sensible." Li Weidong rubbed Yan Jiedi's hair.
took out a large handful of sugar from his pocket and stuffed it into Yan Jiedi's hand.
Yan Jiedi's eyes were bent into a crescent moon.
After the two left, Yan Bugui got angry, glared at Yan Jiedi and said, "Don't call Sister Yu Li in the future, our family has nothing to do with them from now on!" ”
Yan Jiecheng also said that Yan Jiedi was not right, Yan Jiedi was not so enthusiastic when Cuihua came to the house yesterday.
Only the three mothers did not blame Yan Jiedi: "Yu Li's matter, I can't complain about Weidong if I think about it, I don't need to be an enemy if I look up and look down in the future." ”
"Mom, you're so right, what a good person Sister Yu Li is!"
Yan Jiedi grimaced at Yan Bugui and Yan Jiecheng, carefully peeled off a grain of Cuban sugar, and filled it into the mouths of the three mothers.
"It's still a girl and a mother."
...
The other side.
Li Weidong took Yu Li to the last house-the second uncle's house in Liu Haizhong.
Bangs are sitting at the table writing and drawing.
The little fat hand clutched the pen tightly, and every time he wrote a word, his face was full of pride.
Seeing the two of them coming in, he hurriedly got up and greeted: "Weidong, Yu Li, you came just in time, I am planning this wedding banquet, I want to hear your opinions." ”
"What's the hurry, I didn't see that the children are here to deliver candy." The second aunt glared at him and served two cups of hot tea.
"Weidong, you grew up with an aunt, your grandparents originally had five brothers, and four of them were arrested before liberation, but there was no news later. In your generation, you are the only seedling. When you get married, you should hurry up and have a few more children, so that you can spread the branches and leaves for the old Li family. The three mothers took the candy and said with a smile.
"Don't worry, I discussed with Yu Li, I won't give birth to ten or eight after getting married, and I will never call it a day." Li Weidong has a hippie smile.
"Who consulted with you, give birth to seven or eight, isn't that a sow?" Yu Li blushed with shame, and her little hand gently twisted around Li Weidong's waist.
"Hehe, isn't this responding to the call of the country!" Li Weidong smirked.
Looking at the affectionate appearance of the little couple, the second aunt sighed in her heart, the old Yan family was really evil.
"By the way, did you buy the quilt?"
"Bought it, two!" Yu Li said.
"Wait until my aunt sews the quilt for you."
"I'm sorry for you."
......
"Old woman, you will talk about it later, I am waiting to discuss the big matter with Wei Dong!"
The second uncle next to him was in a hurry and began to pick up the second aunt.
The second aunt knew his thoughts, and said a few words of advice, and turned around and went into the back room.
"You see, that's what I think, we don't have a rule here to take gifts first. If your family is poor, I will put it on first, and when the time comes, I will receive the gift money and draw it back for me. "The second uncle brought a manuscript over.
Li Weidong took the list and looked at it carefully.
Good guys, one-two-three-four-five... Seventy, eight, ninety, a total of ten rules for wedding banquets.
From receiving gift money to seating arrangements, it is very detailed.
The second uncle did his best to be in the limelight.
It's just that this word is really not good, it's almost like an earthworm crawling.
was taken by Jia Zhang's hand, and it can be used as a charm to summon Lao Jia.
"It's good, these are all good, but I think He Yushui should do the work of receiving gift money, and if you buy it, you should bring a stupid pillar." Li Weidong had a thick smile on his face, but his tone was very resolute,
"Of course, that's not to say you can't be trusted.
For you, I am a hundred reassured.
The point is that our compound is full of people, and you have done a great deed.
And because of the things on the accounts, it is discussed by others, how inappropriate it is. ”
“... Yes, in the end, it is a person who can be a driver, that is, he is thoughtful, and the stupid pillar follows to buy groceries, and it can be cheaper. ”
The second uncle didn't have the idea of taking money from it, and when he heard this, he immediately said gratefully.
After chatting a few more words, Li Weidong took Yu Li and prepared to go back to the house.
Walking to the door, he turned around and asked, "What about Guangtian and Guangfu?" ”
The second uncle was stunned for a moment, and said, "He, they don't know where to go." ”
Li Weidong obviously heard Liu Guangtian's moaning in the house, but he didn't expose it.
Lao Tzu beats his son, and his son does not support the elderly, which is just right.
Back to the house.
As soon as the quilt was spread, the second aunt came with a group of aunts and daughters-in-law.
Yu Li is a careful person, pay attention, these people are both children, so she let them into the house and pour tea.
Everyone was smiling while taking the covers, and the room was filled with a joyful atmosphere.
The adults sat on the bed and were busy, and the children were playing on the ground, and for a while there was not even a place to plug in the house.
Yu Li sat on the edge of the bed like a qualified hostess and chatted with her aunts and daughters-in-law.
Li Weidong, a big man, was a little embarrassed when he stood next to him, greeted him, and walked towards the stupid pillar house.
Zhang Dongfang wants to be a guest in the evening, and he needs Silly Zhu to help accompany him with wine and cook.
Zhang Dongfang is a famous wine putty.
In the memory of the original owner, Zhang Dongfang could drink a pound of liquor every time, and it was still the kind of high number.
It's not that Li Weidong can't drink it, but he mainly thinks that he drinks too much and hurts his body.
As soon as I walked to the middle courtyard, I saw Jia Zhang's walking quickly with a needle and thread.
The chubby little face was filled with the joy unique to 'taking advantage'.
"Aunt Jia, what are you doing here?" Li Weidong stopped.
"Help your family sew a quilt, didn't the second aunt call a lot of people to go?" Jia Zhang said confidently.
She heard that Li Weidong's family bought a lot of Cuban candy, so she put it outside, and the quilt sewing people ate it casually.
She was also greedy.
Li Weidong laughed angrily at her righteousness, and said, "No, no, you are also an old man in our compound, what are the rules for sewing Xi, you should know, right?" ”
"You know, sew straight ahead, the thread is not knotted, you can't reverse the needle, a quilt has to be sewn eight times, and a thread can't be changed in the end. I used to sew quilts for other people's families, and I sewed the quilt when Lao Liu's son got married. The corners of Jia Zhang's mouth curled up, and he said proudly.
Li Weidong frowned, it seems that this Jia Zhang is really pretending to be confused.
"That was before, you used to be able to sew quilts, but now you can't!"
"You... It's really a dog biting Lu Dongbin who doesn't know the hearts of good people! Jia Zhang was recognized, stomped his feet hatefully, turned his head and ran.
Ma Dan, not even a living person, dares to sew a quilt!
It's really going to be a big block.
Look at other people's aunts, how conscious.
...
