Chapter 147: Ah Zheng gets married
On the 28th day of the lunar calendar, Ah Zheng got married, and Ye Yaodong got up early in the morning and went to his house.
His mother wore a red flower on her head, where she happily mixed candy, melon seeds, and peanuts into a big bag.
After looking around to find Ah Zheng, he was unpacking cigarettes, and as soon as he saw him coming, he immediately handed over a pack of cigarettes.
Ye Yaodong took it happily, "How do you feel about being the groom?"
"I don't know what else I feel, anyway, the red envelopes are quite enjoyable, and it's good to have more sisters, hahaha~" He smiled and patted the pockets of the two tunics on his chest, which were stuffed with red envelopes and bulging.
"Indeed, why don't I have a sister? The two younger sisters are not married yet, but it's a pity." Ah Guang was also a little greedy when he watched from the sidelines.
The red envelope on Ah Zheng's chest is called a pressure pocket red envelope, if there are sisters in the family and are married, in addition to the normal wedding wine red envelope, it is also necessary to wrap this red envelope with a pressed pocket, and the amount of this red envelope will not be small.
"When will the sedan chair and the horses be delivered?"
Their marriage customs here, walk nearby, ride a sedan chair farther away, and many young people have chosen to use a tractor to welcome their relatives in recent years, but the woman's family still chooses to sit in a sedan chair.
"Soon, huh? It's okay, it's still early, you go in and eat two poached eggs."
"Okay, okay~ Let's go eat poached eggs first."
Their relatives and friends who came to help, the main family would cook a pair of poached eggs in sugar water, which were filled with dried longan, sweet and silky.
The table in the room was full of people, and they each stood outside with a bowl and ate, chatting by the way.
It was almost seven o'clock that the sedan chair and the horses were delivered.
Ah Zheng's mother came up happily and gave the master who led the horse, as well as four sedan chair drivers, one of them sent a red envelope, and then gave a red envelope to several of them, which was a red envelope to help greet relatives.
On the day of the wedding, a large number of red envelopes should be given, even the chef, kitchen helper, and bride, as long as they are helping, they have to give red envelopes.
Ah Zheng's house had already arranged everything yesterday, and now he just needs to wait for the time to pick up his relatives.
Ye Yaodong and a few of them carried firecrackers with red cloth bags, and waited for the time to start as soon as the time came, and then the team to greet the relatives set off.
The bride's family lives in the nearby village of Ganxi, which is a little past Dongqiao Village, not far away.
The bride walked next to the sedan chair, the gongs and drums of the kiss were knocked while walking, they set off firecrackers along the way, and when they met the relatives on the road, they grabbed a handful of melon seeds and candy, and everyone let it go.
But sometimes you come across something that doesn't clear your mind.
At this time, as soon as the team reached the entrance of the village, they encountered two unscrupulous blocks, and they did not leave, they had to smoke, and they did not leave if they did not give them cigarettes.
Ye Yaodong is the leader who took the lead in opening the way to set off firecrackers today, and when he saw that it was Xu Laifu again, he was already scolding his mother in his heart, but he still had to smile on his face.
"Brother, eat a handful of candy and sweet mouth, the joy of the villagers is almost over, we still have to hurry up to pick up the relatives, give face, let go?"
"I give you face, who will give me face? If you are in a hurry and give us cigarettes, and if you take them, we will get out of the way."
"That's it, one person gives a pack of cigarettes, and we'll get out of the way."
What's more face-saving than a thing? Ye Yaodong slashed him a few times with a knife.
The little one on the side said softly, "Give it, if you get a pack of friendship cigarettes, you should send it to Hanako, don't delay the hour."
"The cigarettes are all in the fat man's place."
The fat man also glared at the two guys, and because they had a lot to do, he took out two packs of friendship cigarettes and threw one over, "Okay, get out of the way!"
Xu Laifu weighed the cigarette in his hand, and wanted to leave happily, but was stopped by his friend next to him, "Wait, a pack of friendship cigarettes worth four or five cents wants to send us away?" No way, take a pack of Chengfeng, give Chengfeng and we'll go."
allow
Laifu's eyes lit up suddenly, "Yes, you're right, you want to ride the wind, give the wind... I... I... We're leaving..."
Looking at the eyes of them who were about to eat people on the other side, the more he spoke, the softer he spoke, and the more he spoke, the more cowardly he became......
"That's pretty much it, don't get in the way here, or ......."
"Otherwise, don't go over, don't get married if you can't afford it."
Before Ye Yaodong finished speaking, the fox friend next to Xu Laifu shook his feet and took over the conversation nonchalantly.
He who steps on a horse cannot curse on a happy day.
Ah Zheng sat on the horse and climbed down depressed, and stepped forward directly and said, "It's almost enough, Lao Tzu dares to come to me to block me when he gets married today, and when Lao Tzu gets married, I want you to look good!"
"We don't want to block you either, so we gave us the cigarette and left."
"Haven't you already given it?"
"The grade of friendship cigarettes is so low, only four or five cents a pack, how can you be embarrassed to get it?"
The ...... of the grass mud horse Looking at the underwhelming appearance, the brothers had a little itchy hands.
Xu Laifu looked at their unkind gazes, and pulled his friend's sleeve a little cowardly, "Ah Qiang, or forget it?"
"Afraid of what? On this day of great joy, can they still beat us? Settle accounts after the fall? It's just a pack of cigarettes, right?"
"Talk about it, one person will give one pack to ride the wind, and you will get out of the way."
"Of course, of course."
Ah Zheng impatiently looked for two packs of Chengfeng and threw them over, and after the two of them took the cigarettes, they ran to the side happily.
Xiao Xiao stared at their backs, "My hands are so itchy, I want to grab them and beat them!"
Ah Guang also responded, "Me too, I was beaten lightly last time."
Ye Yaodong was also depressed, "I'll take you to hunt ghosts at night!"
"What the hell?" Everyone looked at him for some reason.
"We'll talk about it later, let's go first, don't lose time."
Ah Zheng climbed on the horse again, Ah Guang went to the middle of the team to set off firecrackers, Xiao Xiao went to the back of the team to set off firecrackers, the team moved forward as usual, the fat man came over curiously and asked, "What did you just say to catch ghosts?"
"During this time, I was stolen several times, and others were also stolen, so I kind of guessed who was stealing it? I'm going to catch it at night, do you want to come along?"
"Who? Going after a drink? Are you going to blow the cold wind outside the dock?"
"It must be after eating and going out for a long table of wine to see if you can meet it, and I am not absolutely sure about this."
"Okay, just go out and have a look."
Next, the way to welcome the relatives was very smooth, only when the bride was blocked by the bridesmaids, a little difficult, everyone did a few push-ups, gave a red envelope to open the door and went in, and then it took half a day to find embroidered shoes.
The whole process is very familiar to everyone, and those who have never been married have seen it many times.
It was not easy to pick up the bride in the sedan chair, and everyone hurried back.
On the way, I also met a few second-rate people blocking the team, but compared with Xu Laifu and the two, they were also easy to deal with, one of them gave a handful of candy and a pack of friendship cigarettes, and they left very interestingly.
The local wedding wine is eaten at noon, and as soon as the bride takes it, she must visit the church first, and the banquet will be held directly after the worship.
At noon, it is the main meal, and after the main meal is eaten and all the guests have left, the long table of wine will be served in the evening, and the long table wine is drunk by the friends of the bride and groom.
During this period, the bride has to light cigarettes for the groom's friends, and as for how to make trouble, it depends on whether these groomsmen have a conscience......
Ye Yaodong was not interested in this, so he sat back directly, watching them shake their cigarettes one by one and let the bride light it, but they didn't let the bride light it, and they were happy to watch......
But when it was his turn, he cooperated very well with the bride to light a cigarette, without making any difficulty, and directly let her pass.
The other friends all shouted when they saw it, "Dongzi, why are you like this? If we let it go so easily, it seems that we are particularly bad, and even if the bride scolds us, the bridesmaids must also scold us in their hearts."
"That's how I can remember you and be impressed! Aren't you still single?"
"Seems to make sense."
"Grass ...... Dongzi is obviously pitying the fragrance and cherishing the jade!"
Ye Yaodong rolled his eyes, "If you haven't studied for two days, you have to learn the idioms of people, don't talk nonsense, this is Ah Zheng's bride, and Lao Tzu is also a family person."
"No wonder you're so fast, the iron pestle has been sharpened into a needle."
"Hahahaha~"
Everyone burst into laughter, and Ye Yaodong kicked his friend who spoke angrily, "Get out of the way."
"Oh~ so strong!"
"Talking nonsense to you."
"Oh, don't talk about this, it's almost over, and the rest of the people should speed up a little, and there will be a hole in the back room."
"Then learn from Dongzi, hurry up when it's time to hurry!"
They are talking about the groom and bride in the local cave room, not the bridesmaids, and everyone is very conservative at this time, and they are not too much in the cave room.
In the first round, they went straight to a glass of wine.
"Come on, come on, hand over a glass of wine first."
"The color of this glass of wine is red, the taste is sweet, and the heart is beautiful when you drink it!"
Everyone was laughing there.
The bride held the wine glass, a little shy, at a loss, but Ah Zheng was a thick-skinned person, and directly took her hand and drank it dryly, which made her friends unhappy.
"Ahh You have to drink a glass of wine at the same time, how can you drink it first? Come again, come again, come again! We have to drink it together!"
"Yes, we have to drink together."
At this time, the bride had to bite the bullet and drink the glass of wine with a flushed face.
"Okay~" The people in the room coaxed again.
"It's the second round."
Ah Guang took a needle and thread and threaded it through a little bit of meat on the top of the red date, and then hung it in the air with the thread.
"Haha, I've eaten red dates, I wish you an early birth to a precious son!"
Now the bride was even more embarrassed, looking at the red dates between the two, she didn't dare to move.
Friends are there to heckle them to hurry up......
Ah Zheng opened his mouth directly to bite with thick skin, but Ah Guang was very damaged, and when he was about to touch the red dates, he lifted the line up again, which provoked him to laugh and scold, "You wait for me, wait for you to get married, see if I don't kill you."
"Hehe~ Born early, you gnaw this red date first."
"yes, yes, who's not here that way? Ah Zheng, can you do it? I can't eat for half a day."
"Of course."
Ah Zheng was tossed repeatedly and vomited blood, and finally relatives and friends saw the opportunity to stab Ah Guang, he didn't know why he turned around, and then Ah Zheng was quick to bite, biting the red date, and sending it to the bride, the bride blushed and took a bite.
"Ah, who stabbed me?"
As soon as Ah Zheng bit down the red date, he immediately sat up, wanting to blast everyone out, "Okay, okay, it's over, it's over......
"Wait...... It's only been two rounds, and there's a third round......
Relatives and friends watching the excitement next to him also helped him drive people away, "Almost, almost, the bride is shy......
"Everybody's a three-wheeler... Ah Zheng, you can't be special......
Everyone was pushed out as they spoke, and Ah Zheng hurriedly closed the door behind him, and then tied it up, which was relieved.
A bunch of people at the door were still talking, lingering back and refusing to leave.
Ye Yaodong saw that it was almost over, so he patted Xiaoxiao and Ah Guang on the shoulder of the fat man, and motioned for them to go out and talk.
Except for the fat man, the two of them don't know yet.
As soon as he went out, he mentioned to them about the discovery of Ah Wei's brother-in-law last night, and Ah Guang immediately reacted quickly and said, "It must have been him who stole the net!"
Xiaoxiao also agreed, "Yes, in the middle of the night, sneaky, if you go to the beach to catch the sea, where will you return halfway?"
Ah Guang was puzzled again
asked, "What are the gang of people on Lin Ji going to do in the middle of the night?"
"I don't know, leave him alone. It's only less than 8 o'clock at this time, let's go to Xu Laifu's house to have a look? Let the fat man call the door and see if he's at home? We'll forget it at home, but if we're not at home, we'll definitely go again. I didn't make it yesterday, so I think he should go again in the evening."
What are they doing in Guan Linji, there is no rumor in the village, he doesn't know anything, anyway, he was hearsay in his previous life.
The little hand itched and said, "Go, when I saw that guy in the morning, I wanted to beat him very much, and I was worried that I wouldn't be able to catch the opportunity." It's better not to be at home, so we'll go to the dock and wait, or we can sail to the sea and get the stolen goods, and if we catch them, we'll beat them up."
Ah Guang shrugged his shoulders, "Okay, I'm okay, it's okay anyway."
Although it's none of his business, his friend's business is naturally his business.
"Then let's go check it out."
After the four of them said yes, they went out directly, regardless of the people at the door of the new house who were still coaxing, they were all kicked out, and there was definitely no chance to enter the house again.
