Chapter 169: Buying a Wedding Dress
Dinner was eaten in the courtyard as usual.
The staple food is freshly picked corn from the field, and the side dishes are air-dried mutton brought by Lu Zheng, Li Chun and Lu Zheng, and the Chen family's pickled radish strips, and a bowl of wheat rice porridge per person.
Eight people gathered around the square table, eating and chatting very lively. It's just that the atmosphere on the table is divided into two, and it is distinct.
Jiang Shiyue, Li Chun, and Lu Zheng were on vacation and enjoyed it very much.
The Chen family has some worries, especially Chen Shanlin, who has been drinking with his head down and almost not speaking.
Even Chen Jiadong didn't seem to be in a very good mood.
Wu Xiu'e's smile was somewhat reluctant, and even Chen Dingguo's smile was a lot.
Suddenly, Chen Shanlin slammed the wine glass on the table and looked up at Chen Dingguo, "Dad, I want to divorce Zhao Caifeng." ”
His eyes were not very clear because of the wine, but they were unusually determined.
Chen Dingguo paused, put down his chopsticks, and asked him, "Have you thought about it?" ”
Chen Shanlin nodded emphatically.
Chen Dingguo was silent for a while, "You are almost fifty years old, just think about it yourself." ”
Wu Xiu'e was a little anxious, "No! What if you divorce now, what should you do if Shanhe gets married? ”
"What does it matter to Zhao Caifeng about our wedding?" Jiang Shiyue is unknown.
Chen Shanhe explained in a low voice: "My brother and sister-in-law are very important people at the wedding. ”
In their commune, when they got married, they asked eight relatives and friends to welcome relatives, and eight relatives and friends to send relatives.
Respectively, there are four pairs of uncles and aunts or uncles and aunts, and then there are also four pairs of brothers and sisters-in-law.
Sending and receiving relatives is the most important guest in the wedding.
Chen Shanlin and Zhao Caifeng are Chen Shanhe's brother and sister-in-law, and they are indispensable guests at the wedding, and it is really embarrassing to be absent at this time.
That's why Wu Xiu'e was anxious.
Jiang Shiyue rolled her eyes when she heard this, "First, I think the most important thing in the wedding is the bride and groom. It's enough that you don't miss me. Second, even if you can send out eight greetings, then I have to have a send-off, right? Can you bring my uncle, aunt, brother, and sister-in-law over to the wedding? ”
Chen Shanhe: "......"
He couldn't.
Li Chun smiled: "That's it!" The woman's brother and sister-in-law didn't come, and the same goes for the man. However, you are so miserable. In this way, I will follow the road to count your relatives and friends. Send you to marry"
Lu Zheng: "......"
Although he has no opinion, shouldn't he also ask him if he wants to?
What's more, he seems to be the best man.
Chen Dingguo comforted Wu Xiu'e, "The situation of mountains and rivers and picking up the moon is different from other young people, special affairs, don't think so much." ”
Wu Xiu'e frowned or worried: "That's what I said." When the younger brother gets married, when the elder brother divorces, what's going on? ”
Chen Jiadong burped, "Grandma, don't worry, my mother won't get divorced." I've been making trouble so many times since I was a child, when did she really get divorced? Aren't you just waiting for my dad to pick her up at my grandma's house? Dad, if you wake up tomorrow and go to my grandmother's house to make a compensation, you just have to take my mother back. ”
Jiang Shiyue still wondered why Zhao Caifeng wanted to divorce, and why Chen Jiadong, the "mother treasure", was so calm, it turned out that he was used to it.
Chen Shanlin snorted heavily, "This time, I won't pick her up if I die." If she has the ability, don't come back! ”
Everyone thought that Chen Shanlin was drunk and angry.
Unexpectedly, Chen Shanlin didn't go to Zhao Caifeng's mother's house to pick up people for three days.
Wu Xiu'e anxiously persuaded a few times, but Chen Shanlin was really determined not to go.
Chen Jiadong went to his grandmother's house once, and after he came back, he was okay to eat and drink, and he didn't mention Zhao Caifeng again.
The father and son don't care about Zhao Caifeng, and the others don't care.
Chen Shanhe and Lu Zheng spent a day setting up the frame of the sofa and coffee table.
The next day, the four of them went to the county seat to buy sponges, sofa cloths, and other wedding supplies.
For example, candy, tobacco and alcohol.
With the wedding certificate issued by the production team, you can buy some tobacco, alcohol, sugar and tea hospitality goods without tickets in the supply and marketing cooperative.
Of course, it is also a limited purchase.
Jiang Shiyue brought the injury to the county seat in order to buy wedding clothes.
In 78 years, getting married in the city was just a red dress, and the countryside was not very particular, wearing a red flower on the head, and wearing a new dress was considered a bride's treatment.
Jiang Shiyue thought for a while and discussed with Chen Shanhe, "I want to make the clothes we wore when we got married." ”
Chen Shanhe didn't say a word, and nodded in agreement.
Jiang Shiyue chose two very festive red fabrics. In fact, she thought about buying mosquito net cloth to make a wedding dress.
But in the countryside, only white things wear white.
She can not care about other people's eyes, but she also doesn't want to go too against the times.
No one wants to hear something bad at a wedding.
Jiang Shiyue had already drawn the style of the wedding dress, waiting until she took it to the tailor shop and asked people to do it.
"What a beautiful picture you made!" Li Chunchun's eyes lit up when he saw the renderings.
There is no woman who does not love beauty.
Jiang Shiyue's painting is not a wedding dress, but a modified cheongsam, with the classic buckles of the cheongsam on the upper body and a long pleated skirt on the lower body.
Relatively conservative, in line with the aesthetics of this era.
What Chen Shanhe made was an improved version of the suit.
Nowadays, there are also suits, which are very fat and can fit two people.
Jiang Shiyue naturally wants a slim suit with two buttons.
More precisely, it was modified according to the Type 07 military uniform.
When the tailor heard that they were married, he said that he would expedite it for them, but it would take about a week at the earliest.
At noon, the four of them found a restaurant and ordered a few dishes, and in the afternoon, they accompanied Li Chun to buy some medicines and syringes for Chen Dingguo's treatment.
Jiang Shiyue and Li Chun are not short of money or tickets, and they forget the time when they go shopping.
Chen Shanhe and Lu Zheng are at best two walking shelves, responsible for carrying things.
Lu Zheng also complained from time to time, Chen Shanhe didn't say a word from beginning to end, and looked at Jiang Shiyue with a smile throughout the whole process.
It wasn't until they were almost in time for the last bus home that they were reminded that it was time to leave the mall.
But Chen Shanhe misestimated the woman's perception of time, causing the four of them to almost miss the bus.
Chen Shanhe's reminder is a little reminded.
He was used to staying in the army, and thought that when he said to leave, everyone would quickly turn around and leave.
But Jiang Shiyue and Li Chun were not his soldiers, and they couldn't do what they ordered.
Buy all the way along the way.
If it weren't for Chen Shanhe's fast running, catching up with the bus and letting people go home, etc., they would probably have to walk home.
There are no taxis available in the small county town.
When I returned to the production team, I saw a lot of neighbors at the gate of the Chen family's yard from a distance.
I also heard Zhao Caifeng's arrogant shouting and several other unfamiliar unfriendly insults.
The four of them glanced at each other and quickened their pace.
"Let's go, let's go!"
Li Chun and Lu Zheng opened the way in front and squeezed into the courtyard.
Chen Shanhe was carrying things and did not let him straighten his arms to protect Jiang Shiyue, so as not to touch the injury.
"Oops! You're back! Your sister-in-law brought her mother's family to beat your brother at home, you should go and see. ”
