Chapter XXXVIII
At this time, a large group of people had gathered in the courtyard.
Seeing the bride coming, the people standing on the roof sprinkled peanuts and candy with red cloth pockets, and the children below jumped up and scrambled.
A long firecracker hangs on a tall bamboo pole.
The lively sound of firecrackers is superimposed on the sound of gongs and drums.
There was no romantic wedding march, no pink hand-held flowers, only a couple with simple smiles and walked in from outside the courtyard.
The officiant is Qin Daping.
The witness is the captain of the village, a simple peasant man, also surnamed Qin, and is Qin Jianjun's uncle in terms of generation.
Although the conditions are simple, there are many rituals.
This is also a romance that belongs to the peasant family.
In addition to the traditional worship of heaven and earth, worship of the high hall, and worship of husband and wife, there are also special rituals that belong to this era.
Li Fang swallowed melon seeds while watching the captain solemnly hand over the two small books with red stars on the cover to the young couple.
"Jianjun, Jianjun's daughter-in-law, from now on, you must support each other, do not forget to study, love labor, and be filial to your parents."
Captain Yin Yin admonished.
Qin Jianjun and Liu Meihua both nodded vigorously.
Seeing this, Qin Daping, the officiant, shouted: "Licheng ......"
Before he could finish speaking, the man who sprinkled the sugar on the roof began to wave again.
As soon as Li Fang looked up, he was hit by a big white rabbit, he smiled, and was about to put it in his pocket.
saw Qin Xiaohe grabbing his trouser pocket and staring at him.
He was too young to snatch other older children, so he could only rely on his brother's "prayer" to feast on his food.
Li Fang broke half of it for him, and put the remaining half in his mouth.
This kid has been eating too much sugar lately, and he's going to have worm teeth.
He picked up Qin Xiaohe.
Zhang Yurong had to help serve the food for a while.
At this time, there were no waiters, they were all the aunts and aunts in the neighborhood who helped serve the food, Qin Xiaohe followed him, and he could still stutter.
As for the two younger sisters, Qin Xiaomei and Qin Hongxing, they are at the same table with Qin Jingru, and they are much more sensible when they are older.
The large banquet dishes are naturally not as exquisite as the dishes in the restaurant, but fortunately, they are large and delicious.
In addition, in these years, people are short of oil and water, and there is no big fat slices in the stir-fry, there is no one left, they are all iron chopsticks, and if the hand speed is a little slower, they can only eat steamed bread and dipping vegetable soup.
Li Fang wiped the sweat from his forehead and put the piece of lean meat on the chopsticks into Qin Xiaohe's mouth.
"Brother, I want to eat fatty meat, this is fragrant." Qin Xiaohe chewed the meat and muttered.
Li Fang looked at his increasingly ruddy little face.
"Have you gained weight lately?" It used to be easy to hold him, but now I feel panicked.
Qin Xiaohe sighed and pulled his face.
"But my mother said that I can eat and be blessed." Qin Xiaohe retorted loudly.
Li Fang smiled and quipped: "Then you have eaten up all your brother's salary, see what you will eat in the future." ”
Qin Xiaohe was startled, and he said in a panic: "Then I'll eat less, my brother still has to marry a daughter-in-law." ”
Li Fang laughed.
At this time, Qin Jianjun and Liu Meihua came to the table with wine glasses to toast, toasted, and arrived at Li Fang.
"Come on, come on, put it, don't use this, we have to use this to drink this relationship." Qin Jianjun put Li Fang's small wine glass aside, and didn't know where to take out a big bowl and put it in Li Fang's hand.
Li Fang was stunned for a moment.
Although he drank a good amount of wine, it is estimated that his stomach is swollen after this bowl.
Li Fang kindly reminded: "Jianjun, can you still enter the cave room after you drink this wine?" ”
With that, everyone on the side burst out laughing.
"Yes, Brother Jun, don't be reckless." It was a cousin of Qin Jianjun who spoke.
When Qin Jianjun heard Li Fang's words, his face turned red.
"Drink, must drink." He himself was smothered for most of the bowl in one go.
Seeing this, Li Fang was not ambiguous, and poured the wine into his mouth.
"Okay, I'll drink this wine, I wish you a hundred years of good harmony and a good life."
The degree of this wine is not low, half a bowl down, spicy he hurriedly took a large chopsticks of cabbage, and swallowed half a steamed bun.
"Okay, Jianjun, I have to respect others for a while...... Another day, I'll make some food another day, and you and Fangzi will drink again. Liu Meihua on the side looked at Qin Jianjun distressedly.
Qin Jianjun also listened to his daughter-in-law's words, and he put down the wine in his hand with a smile.
Li Fang patted him on the shoulder and smiled meaningfully at him.
......
The wedding feast was over, and it was busy in the evening.
The hole room is an indispensable part of marriage.
Li Fang beckoned the young people to walk towards the wedding room, and everyone carried a small bench with melon seeds, peanuts and candy.
"Come on, Jianjun, tell me about your love affair with my brother and sister." It was Qin Jianjun's cousin Liu Kang who spoke, and he didn't think it was a big deal to watch the excitement.
Qin Jianjun held the teacup and sat on the kang with his legs crossed.
"Meihua and I are baby kisses, and we can be regarded as arranged marriages...... How can there be any love experience. Qin Jianjun smiled, scratched his head and said.
Liu Kang on the side hurriedly said: "Don't, Junzi, you two are not an arranged marriage, our new society does not want this, besides, I think you are very happy, how is it like an arranged marriage." ”
Li Fang echoed: "Yes, when Jianjun saw his daughter-in-law, his snot was so beautiful that he was bubbling. ”
Liu Meihua smiled at Li Fang and said, "Fangzi, every time the military sees me, you follow me, and you can be regarded as a witness to our marriage." ”
Li Fang chewed melon seeds and quipped: "Then I didn't see it when you two kissed each other." ”
After all, the young people on the side were all bright-eyed, and they came to the cave room just to listen to these gossip anecdotes.
Li Fang mentioned this, and the atmosphere became lively.
"Ah, my younger brother Jianjun is amazing, he kissed his mouth." The topic of the countryman is open, especially on the night of this big day, and there is nothing taboo or taboo.
After all, they are all young people, and they are all relatives and friends at home, and they are very familiar.
Liu Meihua's face suddenly turned red, and she made an excuse to sneak out of the house.
Qin Jianjun grabbed her and pulled her into his arms.
"What are you afraid of, they are bachelors in this room, they are jealous of us." Qin Jianjun smiled and comforted Liu Meihua.
Qin Jianjun said to Li Fang: "Fangzi, don't talk nonsense, Meihua and I are pure love......
Li let out a sigh and said, "That's the case, I don't believe it." ”
Qin Jianjun was speechless for a while.
Liu Kang, who was on the side, looked at his cousin's deflated appearance and laughed.
"Oops, I remember once going to the river and seeing Jianjun with his arm around him...... That scene, tsk tsk. Liu Kang pretended to be a hypocrisy.
Before he finished speaking, Qin Jianjun hurriedly covered his mouth.
"Junzi, you, you're wrong, let Brother Kang say, we'll all wait to hear it."
Li Fang said with a smile.
Qin Jianjun turned his head to look at him: "What's so good to hear, if you want to hear about falling in love, you have to find your daughter-in-law and let your daughter-in-law tell you." ”
Everyone on the side laughed, and then, Liu Kang and Li Fang joined forces to shake off Qin Jianjun's affairs.
provoked the bride Liu Meihua to be full of smiles.
The group was noisy until late at night, and only then did they leave.
left the marriage room to the young couple.
This night is a happy time for them.
