Chapter 142, borrowing a car and picking up relatives (asking for a monthly pass)
As soon as he got home, Nan Yi had already taken the two cooks he had hired to work in the kitchen.
The wedding feast was held at noon, not at night.
If it was night, it would be very difficult for Qin Huairu's mother's family to rush back to Qinjiagou after dinner.
Walking at night, although there are many people, it is not so safe to investigate.
And for many years, I was most afraid of this, so I directly decided to set the wedding banquet time for lunch.
"Master Nan, I've worked hard for you today......
Many years smiled and took out a pack of big front doors, took three cigarettes and handed them over.
"Yo, big front door, good smoke, congratulations, newlywed, early birth of a noble son......"
Nan Yi did not refuse the cigarette, but took it in surprise, and sent a basket of good words in his mouth.
His two cooks took the cigarettes even more excitedly and respectfully, and inhaled intoxicatedly.
"Thank you, thank you!"
After chatting with the three of them for a while, many years later, I got up and went back to the house to take a shower.
Today is a big day, and they also get up early and get dressed up.
Except for Zhou Hongmei, Hu Meifeng and Fan Zhaodi, they wore good clothes at the bottom of the box, and Lao Xu and they were all wearing clothes that were washed a few days ago.
Because the clothes at the bottom of the box are already worn in tatters.
Sanxiao and Xu Wumei also wore new clothes, and it was they who used their pocket money to buy cloth tickets from their third uncle, and then went to buy cloth and came back, and asked their mother to help sew the clothes.
When it comes to this, you have to complain about the sewing machine.
There is no sewing machine in the courtyard so far, and if you want to use it, you have to go to the neighbor in the next yard to borrow it.
Every time you borrow, give one or two eggs is fine, it's almost an unwritten rule.
However, in fact, eggs are not cheap, and they cost about five cents each.
That can't be helped, because everyone is not stupid.
Every time I borrow a sewing machine, the big guy comes with a lot of clothes and quilts, not to mention that it takes half a day, and some families have more clothes and more clothes, and they directly occupy the time of the day.
It makes the neighbors want to make some extra money, but they can't do it.
In these days, most people buy cloth directly to make their own clothes, and when they have money, they go to department stores and ready-to-wear stores to buy ready-to-wear clothes.
However, the price of ready-to-wear garments is relatively expensive, and women who can cut their own clothes are reluctant to buy ready-to-wear garments.
However, the sewing machine is the same as the bicycle, not only for the ticket, but also for 150 yuan, which is not something that ordinary families can afford.
The Jia family in the middle courtyard was quiet, and people didn't know where they went.
He didn't pay attention to these for many years, and when he got married today, he didn't want any accidents, the Jia family was not there, so it was better.
After seven o'clock, the workers in the courtyard went to work, but the liveliness of the courtyard did not decrease.
Many neighbors in the neighborhood came to join in the fun.
In recent years, there are really a lot of housewives, and the little daughters-in-law and aunts gather in the laundry trough, washing clothes, while watching the three of Nanyi make food, while watching the family busy for many years, while talking about it.
Just after half past seven, many years ago he took his eldest brother and second brother to Ji Chungeng's house to borrow a bicycle.
The latter has two bicycles at home, and the old man has already said that he will lend him the bicycles.
Pick up relatives, there must be a convoy.
Three bikes, can also be a team?
Not to mention, in this era, it is already quite pompous to be able to have three bicycles as a wedding car team.
What's more, in a place like Qinjiagou, three bicycles are placed at the entrance of the village, which can definitely attract the attention of the whole village.
Moreover, this kind of face-to-face thing can make the aunts and aunts in the village talk about it for several years.
When I arrived at Ji Chungeng's house, I still saw Kang Daotong for many years, his face remained unchanged, but he muttered in his heart.
This master is really persistent.
"Xiao Xu, happy newlywed!" Kang Dao congratulated happily, and then said with a pretended unhappiness on his expression:
"But I said that you kid is really excessive, and you won't notify me of your marriage, but I know about the wedding card, remember to make up for me"
Xu Danian and Xu Shishi behind him looked at each other.
They didn't know who Kang Daotong was in front of them, but he was wearing a decent military uniform and epaulettes, and he was definitely an officer.
An officer chatted with his third brother, judging from the title, the other party should be the leader, and judging from the tone of the chat, it seems that the leader is complimenting his third brother.
Therefore, the two brothers Xu Danian were confused.
For many years, I was not confused, and I responded with a smile, saying that I could make up a wedding card for you later, and please don't mind.
Everyone is waiting for him here, sending him wedding blessings, of course he can't turn him away.
"Haha, okay, it's not in vain that I've been waiting for you here for a long time."
Kang Daotong was very happy and pointed to the bicycle behind him: "How is it?" I've got my bike ready today, so I'll be your wedding car driver for a day, how about it? ”
If it weren't for the fear of driving too publicly, I didn't like it for many years, and it wasn't suitable, Kang Daotong would have driven over in a car.
"Leader, this is not going to work!" For many years, he directly shook his head and refused, and Kang Daotong did not insist.
He said that he would lend him a bicycle and wait for noon, and then go to his house to ask for a glass of wine.
After saying that, I didn't wait for many years to refuse, turned around and left.
This operation has been speechless for many years.
Ji Chungeng watched amusefully from the side, and did not say a word.
Anyway, he can't take care of this matter anymore, let the young man handle it himself.
"Director, you won't tell him I'm getting married today, will you?" For many years, he gave Ji Chungeng a resentful expression, and his tone was slightly helpless.
The latter rolled his eyes back, and said angrily, "I'm not so idle, it was he who came to me today to kindly lend you a car for use, and you buried him, who should I talk to?" ”
I was sure that it wasn't Ji Chungeng who blocked himself, and he hurriedly apologized to the other party for many years, licking his face and saying a lot of good things.
The two brothers Xu Danian behind him have already seen numbness, and they haven't seen their third brother for five years, didn't they expect to be so sleek and sophisticated?
It's no wonder that the third child is so prosperous, it's really not without reason.
I successfully borrowed a bicycle, but I also had an extra 28 bar, what should I do?
I didn't refuse for many years, and I went back with one hand.
When they arrived at the courtyard, the neighbors all gathered in the front yard to chat.
Aunt Yan took a few children and chatted with other neighbors, and saw that the three brothers had pushed three bicycles in for many years, and their eyes were round.
Didn't you say to borrow two bicycles for a wedding car?
Why do you have an extra car?
The three little ones and Xu Wumei were already screaming happily and pounced, "Third uncle, third uncle, why are there three cars?" It's so beautiful! ”
"Isn't it good to have an extra bike?"
Many years smiled and explained, it was lent to him by a leader.
The three little ones were only oh for a moment, Xu Wumei said curiously, "Third brother, if the four cars are there, who will ride the fourth car?" ”
It's a real problem, I looked at her for many years and knew that she really wanted to ride, but she was too young to learn it.
At this time, Jiang Dongyang and Xu Simei and their family came over.
When Jiang Dongyang saw it for many years, his face turned obviously pale, and the shadow area in his heart was still very large.
"Third brother!"
He learned to be obedient, and took the initiative to greet him very enthusiastically, and there was no way to be afraid in his heart.
And many years just smiled and nodded, and then asked his fourth sister, knowing that she could ride, so he asked her to help as a wedding car driver.
Among the three borrowed cars, one of them is Director Wang's women's bicycle, which is just right for Xu Simei to be the driver.
The matter of the wedding car team was decided.
The neighbors watched with amazement, in fact, they also wanted to be drivers, but they didn't give them a chance for many years.
If you are a driver, you can not only ride a bicycle, but also receive red envelopes, and you can also sit and eat a big meal.
It's a pity!
Fan Zhaodi also wanted to speak just now, but Xu Simei's family came by too much coincidence, and she didn't have time to say it, and the driver candidate was decided.
Lao Xu saw that the time was almost eight o'clock, so he urged many years to quickly change his clothes and bring gifts to pick up the bride.
From Nanluoguxiang to Qinjiagou, a round trip, to say the least, it takes two and a half hours.
After all, this is a wedding car team, and it is impossible for him to go to work as fast as stepping on Hot Wheels.
The four siblings rode four bicycles and disappeared at the intersection under the eyes of the three little ones and Xu Wumei.
The three little ones really wanted to follow, but this was to pick up relatives, not to play.
There was still plenty of time, the four brothers and sisters rode out of the city, and rode a few kilometers more, just after nine o'clock, they came to the vicinity of Qinjiagou.
At this time, Qin Jiagou and Qin Jianguo's house were also jubilant, and many neighbors came.
Qin Huairu's brother and sister-in-law also came over, although there were contradictions, but after all, it was blood and family, but they couldn't say anything about coming to help.
The mute sister-in-law is really difficult to do, obviously her big belly has been seven months, but she is still very quick to work.
There are a lot of festive red papers pasted at home, all of which are red papers cut out with the help of Qin Huairu's mute sister-in-law.
Paper-cutting is a craft, but it is not as good as it was in the past, so it cannot be used as a means of making a living.
In addition, the mute sister-in-law can't speak, and communication is also a big problem.
"The bridegroom is here to pick up the kiss!"
At the entrance of the village, a group of little children saw the four brothers and sisters for many years, and immediately cheered.
His sister Xu Simei sprinkled a handful of melon seeds with a smile and gave each child a piece of candy.
It can't be more, if there is more, her crossbody bag, wait for it to bottom.
Of course, she is more picky, and the task is to send the melon seeds, candy and dates in the crossbody bag to Qin Huairu's family, not these little children at the entrance of the village.
The liveliness at the entrance of the village has attracted everyone's attention.
Soon, for many years, they pushed their bicycles to Qin Jianguo's house, and Qin Huairu and her sister-in-law had already hid in the house.
Qin Jingru and other children are not there, so they are probably hiding in Qin Huairu's boudoir.
After meeting, it is indispensable to say some festive words, and many years of smiling are on their faces, which is a sincere smile.
I handed out cigarettes when I met people, and I carried several packs of big front doors in my pocket, opened them and sent them out.
His sister sent melon seeds and candy, and his two older brothers helped to chatter.
Qin Jianguo, Yang Qiuhong, Qin Mingguang, and Qin Minghui's family, whether they are happy or not, all showed a smile today.
Especially Qin Minghui, his sister is finally going to marry his brother-in-law, and he has asked his friends in the city to inquire clearly.
My brother-in-law has been working in a design institute for many years, and I heard that he is a small leader, and his salary is quite high.
His friend didn't inquire about the specific salary, anyway, a lot of money.
For this reason, Qin Minghui also owed his friend a meal.
Only Qin Mingguang felt a little uncomfortable in his heart.
Compared with the mute daughter-in-law with a big belly now, Qin Mingguang still misses the girl before.
Well, what you can't get is the best.
After a lively circle, he took the gift to Qin Jianguo for many years, and took a red envelope to the other party.
The bride price has already been given, and today's red envelope is just a festive red envelope, and there are only eight cents in it.
It's not much, but it represents the heart.
Yang Qiuhong also has it, which is also eight cents.
The two brothers Qin Mingguang also have a red envelope, but the red envelope of the two brothers is only three cents.
Although there was a lot less, Qin Minghui was still very happy.
Three cents, that's a lot!
The next process is to break into the boudoir and take the bride back.
The door of the room was locked, and after knocking on the door, the voices of Qin Jingru and their little children came from inside.
The children are lively, through the crack in the door, give a red envelope and candy or something, and say a few good words, it's almost enough.
If they blush too much, Qin Jingru and their children can't think of it.
So, many years of easy customs clearance, walked in.
Today's Qin Huairu is exceptionally beautiful.
"Brother-in-law, you earned it, look at my sister's beauty, right?" Qin Jingru said coaxing beside him.
Unlike the shy little girl before, today's Qin Jingru is particularly bold.
"Well, it's beautiful!"
For many years, the eyes were gentle and smiling.
There aren't too many wedding customs, nothing like looking for shoes.
Now it is no more than before, and all feudal bad habits must be abandoned, so the matter of marriage can be saved.
Qin Huairu put on her shoes and was hugged out for many years in the midst of everyone's lively uproar.
At the door, Qin Jianguo's house was already full of people, and even the nearby villagers came to join in the fun.
There are only four bicycles in the wedding car team, so in addition to Qin Huairu, there can only be three more bicycles.
The sharp-eyed Qin Jingru followed Xu Simei directly, planning to take the latter's car to the banquet.
There are still two brothers Qin Minghui, as well as the mute sister-in-law and her children, Qin Huairu's uncle and cousin.
The number of people is not large, three plus one piece, it is enough for a table.
Qin Jianguo and Yang Qiuhong didn't go, so a total of ten people went to Qin Huairu's mother's house.
Except for Qin Jingru, the three of them rode bicycles, and the others walked.
Seeing this, he took out a piece of five cents from his pocket for many years and asked Cousin Qin Huairu to help arrange for a bus to go over.
When the onlookers saw this scene, their eyes widened, is the son-in-law of Jianguo so rich?
Qin Minghui was also surprised to see his brother-in-law so arrogant, this is a piece of five cents!
Thank you for a monthly pass! Capable bigwigs, I hope you can order them all, thank you very much!
Thanks to the 100 coin reward from the owner of the house
