Chapter 47: Preparing for the Wedding
Li Chunlan saw that the momentum was a little bad, and said that there was still something at home, so she hurriedly got up and left.
Tian Lanfang and Tang Yue took out two festive new sheets from the bag, one with the word double happiness in red, and the other with a peony in full bloom.
In the previous life, these sheets, known as national sheets, were made of pure cotton fabric, strong and durable, and the color patterns were very festive.
The other bulging bag contained new cotton for quilting.
Tang Yue's heart was a little astringent, grandma was almost sixty years old, and she really didn't know how grandma came to be on the mountain road for more than thirty miles.
When the outline asked, I saw my grandmother frowning and unhappy.
She immediately felt like a mirror, grandma was disgusted that there were too many stews at home, and it was too wasteful.
"Grandma, these meats are all brought over by Jianning......"
"Jianning is your man, you have to be more controlled, you have to live a long life, you can't be extravagant and wasteful......"
Grandma stretched out her hand and groped around her waist, and took out a folded boxy handkerchief, which, when opened, contained two wads of money tied with red wool.
"Yueyue gets married, the eight lambs don't care, your mother is not a person who understands, your uncle and your aunt have to help you buy a dowry in advance; But this matter is too urgent, and it is too late; These fifty yuan are the hearts of your uncle and your aunt, and you will buy some furniture later......"
"You take these thirty pieces. Lan Fang, divorce is a good thing for you! has a daughter, a son-in-law, and an old lady like me, life will definitely go on! ”
After that, stuff the money into the hands of Tang Yue and her mother respectively, and you can't refuse; Grandma picked up the chopsticks and quickly put the meat in the bowl back into the pot.
In her bowl, only a piece of meat remained.
"You can't eat too much fish and meat, you will eat bad stomach!"
Grandma picked up the bowl, took a sip of soup, and muttered a sentence in her mouth.
Tang Yue saw her mother turn around, raised her hand and wiped the corners of her eyes.
In the last life, because of Zhang Taohua's incident, after her mother hanged herself, her grandmother came to Tang Youde with a kitchen knife; Although grandma is strong and capable, she is old after all, and with Tang Laosan's protection, not only did she hurt Tang Youde, but she was not light.
After dealing with her mother's funeral, her grandmother fell ill after returning to Tianjiazhuang, and lay on the kang for two months and never got up again.
Thinking of this, she stretched out her hand and held her grandmother's hand tightly.
Fortunately, my grandmother's current health is very good, and she doesn't look sick at all; Thinking that Lingquan had the effect of strengthening the body, she hurriedly got up and poured a teapot of boiled water.
"You Nizi, are you trying to make grandma's soup full? I just drank a large bowl of broth. ”
As she spoke, Grandma still picked up the teapot and drank half a cup with her neck up.
"Yueyue, have you put sugar in this water? It tastes sweet......"
Grandma was full of praise.
"Grandma, my sister also bought me two head flowers, they look good when they wear them! I've been looking for a long time in the house this time, and I'm thinking about wearing it to show my grandmother, but I can't find it......"
Tang Xing pouted and ran out, shaking Tang Yue's arm to "head flower".
The panicked Tang Yue almost covered her mouth, Tian Lanfang laughed and almost turned her back on her anger, Li Jianning simply turned her face and pretended not to hear.
"Didn't you wear it on your head when you bought a flower, Yueyue, you're making a petty mistake again, aren't you? Taught by the family of Wang Ba Lamb, there is no human appearance, when will you wear it if you don't wear it during the New Year......"
Tang Yue was bitter in her heart, and she couldn't say anything in her mouth......
Grandma, that "head flower" is not worn on the head......
……
These two days have gone by so fast.
Tian Lanfang asked the stammering mother-in-law and the mother-in-law next door to help make a new quilt, Li Jianning rushed to the market to buy some vegetables, and the Tang Yue sisters cleaned the house up and down.
I found some newspapers, pasted the house again, and specially asked Tang Dashan to write a couplet.
The wind is warm, and the spring is strong.
Horizontal batches of happiness and happiness.
In addition, more than a dozen big red letters of happiness were written and posted on trees and furniture on both sides of the road.
In the past two days, Tang Yue has endured very hard.
Preparing for a marriage is cumbersome, and grandma lives at home, so she naturally spends less time alone with Li Jianning - if grandma sees her pecking Li Jianning's face at every turn, a look can scare her to death.
Fortunately, it went smoothly, and it was a busy job, and it arrived on the fifth day of the first month.
Just thinking about it makes me feel very excited.
From now on, she can stay with Li Jianning for a long time.
On the fifth day of the Lunar New Year, the courtyard of Tian Lanfang's house was crowded with people.
The house was cleaned clean, the red newlywed couplet was posted on the door, Tang Xing jumped with joy and posted happy words everywhere, and even the rhubarb's kennel did not fall.
In the past few days, Rhubarb, who has gnawed on a number of pig bones, seems to understand some things; Seeing the people coming and going in the family, he jumped back and forth behind Tang Xing excitedly, and from time to time people stood up, grinning stupidly, eager to run to the gate to welcome and pick up guests.
After all, after so many years, this family has never been so lively and festive.
The eldest uncle and aunt also rushed over at nine o'clock in the morning, and when they saw Jianning, they naturally praised it again.
Li Kangning also came over with Lai Lihua, who was not paying attention, and secretly gave Jianning twenty yuan.
Lai Lihua seemed to have completely forgotten the fight with Tian Lifang that day, with a hypocritical smile on her face, she ran to the stammering place of the bookkeeper, gave a five-yuan gift, grabbed the melon seeds and candy to eat with peace of mind, and jerked it in her pocket from time to time.
Tang Youde, Wang Dahua and others, as if they had disappeared, had not seen a single figure until now, and the angry grandmother was going back and forth in the yard with her hands behind her back.
If it weren't for the scruples of the happy day, Mrs. Yao would have scolded Wang Dahua and her mother for a bloody head.
A few little sisters from the village came over to help Tang Yue get dressed.
Looking at the little sisters who were busy in the house, the dusty memories slowly became clear.
Tao Jinye, the daughter of the only person surnamed Tao in the village, was full of smiles, saying that this was heartwarming, and after being busy, he volunteered to help Tang Yue put on makeup.
Looks like a warm-hearted person.
Qiu Hongmei, who speaks with a loud voice, can eat and sleep with big hands and feet, has a tomboy hair, never speaks with a brain, a typical rectum.
The saying that people should not be good-looking, it is really appropriate to use it on these two people.
If there is no memory of a past life, it is naturally easy to be confused by performance; Under normal circumstances, everyone would like Tao Jinye, who spoke softly and softly, and had no good impression of Qiu Hongmei, who was grinning and glaring at every turn.
And the fact is the opposite, people like Tao Jinye, who do things smoothly and speak without leakage, are the most scheming, typical of the ones who were sold by her and helped her count the money.
Tang Yue in the previous life was severely cheated by her.
Now that she has appeared in this life, let's play slowly with her.
"Yueyue, on the day of the big day, you have to dress up for the festive point, and the bridal flowers on your head, wear them all, right?"
Tao Jinye held two red plastic flowers and gestured on her head.
Tang Yue was wearing a bright red bread suit, a pair of red pants, a pair of red leather shoes, a light powder on her face, and a shoulder-length hair in a bun.
Tang Yue really didn't like the bridal clothes of this era, not only did she have to wear bright red from head to toe, but her face also had to be painted with an exaggerated blush, which looked like a clown.
Tao Jinye took the head flower and asked, grabbed the puff and was about to wipe it on her face.
"Tang Yue's face is ruddy, what do you need these red powders for? It's like a monkey's belly, it's ugly! ”
Qiu Hongmei is an idle person, she can't help with other work, she feeds pigs and chickens, and when she is done, she runs to the well with a hook and a bucket to fetch water, and does not stop until the water tank at home is full.
Qiu Hongmei, who had just sat down and panted loudly with her mouth open, said this with an urn sound.
