Back To Qiqi Farming To Raise Children

Chapter 98: wedding

??Chapter 98 Happy Events

?? Outside the gate of Xu’s house, a string of firecrackers was picked up with a long wooden pole.

?? Several teenage boys in the village waited anxiously with matches in their hands. They lit firecrackers only when the sledges that welcomed the bride came back.

??Before ten thirty, there was a commotion in the distance, and a child rushed over and shouted.

?? "Come back, come back, the bride is back."

??The boys who were waiting to set off firecrackers at the door cheered up immediately, and stretched their heads to look westward.

?? Sure enough, I saw the horse sledge coming from not far away, and a person in a red padded jacket sat on the first sledge, no need to guess, it must be the bride.

?? "Quick, get ready, let me tell you something, and you all light firecrackers."

?? Someone greeted, and the other waited with a match in his hand.

??When the sledge came to the front of Xu's house, and before the newcomer's feet landed, the sound of crackling firecrackers sounded here.

??Xu Shide supported his daughter-in-law Wu Qiuyan and got off the sledge. Amidst the flying firecracker debris and the pungent smell of gunpowder, a new couple entered the gate of Xu's house.

??Zhou Guilan stepped forward and took the cornucopia from her daughter-in-law.

??Here Wu Qiuyan picked up the red flower from the pot, pinned it in her mother-in-law's hair, and called out affectionately, "Mom."

??Zhou Guilan was so happy that she couldn't close her mouth from ear to ear, she repeatedly agreed, "Hey, hey."

?? While agreeing, he took out a red envelope from his pocket and gave it to his new wife.

??The wedding ceremony in this year and month is very simple. The newlyweds enter the house and have a blessing. At eleven o'clock, they come out of the house and go to the courtyard.

?? Zhao Dahai was the officiant, and after speaking a few words, the young couple saluted and thanked the guests, the officiant and the matchmaker, and then saluted to thank their parents for their kindness.

??If it was put aside a few years ago, it should have bowed to the portrait of the leader, but now this item can only be omitted.

??The warm and simple wedding ceremony ended quickly, and the bride was sent back to the east room to rest, and then the feast began.

??Nowadays, the life of each family is not rich, so the whole family does not come to eat at the wedding banquet.

??Most of them are the head of the family who comes to have a wedding wine with the ceremony, plus a group of helpers.

?? There are a total of one hundred families in the big house, and some who have a bad relationship with the Xu family did not come.

??So including relatives, friends and natal guests, a total of fourteen tables were set up.

?? There are six tables on the side of the Xu family, and eight tables on the side of the two neighbors.

??Bracken pork, braised venison, braised bear's paw, Sixi meatballs, sauerkraut white meat blood sausage, soft fried meat, fried meat with fungus and carrots, shredded cabbage, mung bean sprouts and shredded carrots.

?? There is also a pot of rhubarb rice next to each table, and the hot aroma is tangy.

?? There are eight dishes in total, seven of which have meat, and only one cold dish.

??In this scene, who can't say a word hard enough after seeing it?

?? As far as the moment is concerned, there is really no one who can produce these dishes.

??When the dishes went up, everyone was amazed, and they couldn't help but boast that it must be the old Xu's family.

??Look at how people live these days, take a look around the whole village, who can compare with it?

?? The dishes are served and the wine is full, so what else is there to say? Just eat it.

?? It is rare to see oily water on weekdays. This is all meat and vegetables, why don’t you open your belly to eat?

?? So one by one, they shook off their cheeks and started to build.

??The family members of the Wu family who send off their relatives are all arranged on the kang in the east room, exactly two tables.

??For the two tables of guests from my natal family, the food and drink are more abundant. In addition to the eight dishes outside, there are candied sweet potatoes and a platter of sauced meat.

??The Xu family arranged for Xu Shiyan's two uncles and Zhao Dahai to accompany the guests, giving the Wu family enough face.

??With such a high standard of entertainment, it is too late for the Wu family to bow their heads to eat and drink. Who would care to find fault? Naturally, the host and guest enjoy themselves and the atmosphere is harmonious.

??After the banquet, the newcomers had to toast, but the young people in the village made trouble and insisted on letting Xu Shide drink.

?? The yelling made Xu Shide drunk, and he couldn't climb the kang at night.

??The Xu family had already made preparations. Xu Shixiang, Zhou Wanxing, Zhou Wancheng and other young people all came to help hold the wine.

??In the end, these few were all drunk with a lot of alcohol, and they found a place to rest red-faced and dizzy.

??Of course, the drinkers were not much better. They drank all over, and some of them slipped under the table.

??It was less than 12:30, the people who saw off relatives from the Wu family had enough to eat and drink, got up to take their leave and left.

??The Xu family found a few young men, drove the horses and sledges, and sent them back.

??As for the other guests, they had almost eaten, so they left one after another.

??After the guests had left, the helping daughters-in-law hurriedly cleaned up the dishes.

?? Nowadays, people's stomachs are empty, let alone eight dishes, and there will be nothing left with eight more dishes.

??Almost every table was clean, and even the vegetable soup on the plate was eaten with rice, and there was nothing left.

?? Now, washing the dishes is easy, just put it in the pot and scald it with hot water, rub some baking soda at most, then rinse it with clean water, and it will be clean.

??All kinds of utensils such as bowls and plates are borrowed from each house. After washing, they are classified according to the marks, compared according to the list, and they have to be sent back to others.

??Of course, there is no one who borrows household items for weddings and sends them back empty-handed. They have to pack some melon seeds and candies.

??A group of helpers, Zhou Guilan also wrapped some melon seeds candies, or leftovers, as a token of gratitude.

?? By the time everything was done and the guests were gone, it was already three or four o'clock in the afternoon.

??Because the Chinese New Year was approaching, every family was busy, and the relatives from Daying and Songjianghe did not stay behind. After the banquet, they chatted for a while, and then they all said their goodbyes and left.

??The Xu family has been busy all day, and at this time they can finally sit down and rest for a while.

?? "Finally calmed down for a while, I was so busy this day that my feet hit the back of my head, and my whole body hurts."

??Zhou Guilan was so busy that day that she felt dizzy and dizzy. After finally sitting down to rest, she felt as if her whole body was about to fall apart.

?? "Otherwise people say that marrying a daughter-in-law is not a lie, it's really tiring.

?? Fortunately, four of the five sons in our family have married daughters-in-law. The fifth is not in a hurry. It will take two years, so we can take it easy. "

??Xu Chenghou was too busy to sit down and smoke a pipe.

?? "Okay, let's all go back to the house and rest for a while. The dinner is simple. Isn't there some leftovers? Just heat it up and eat it."

??Zhou Guilan saw that the sons and daughters-in-law all looked tired, and simply waved their hands, telling them to go back to rest.

?? "Mom, then I'll go back first, and I won't come over for dinner if I don't have anything to do at night. Yingzi and I can just eat at home."

??Xu Shiyan is thinking about his daughter-in-law at home, so how can he be in the mood to delay here? Tell your parents and leave.

?? "Third brother, wait a moment, I'll bring you some food back home, and in the evening, you two can just leave the house and heat it up for yourself."

??As soon as Zhou Guilan heard that her son was going to leave, she hurriedly put on her shoes and went to the ground again, and packed a plate of vegetables for Xu Shiyan.

?? "Yingzi didn't come to eat today, so bring her some delicious food back."

?? According to the rules in the country, it is not good for pregnant women to attend other people's weddings, and it is easy to get red.

??Although I always yelled about breaking the four olds before, some old rules still have to be followed.

?? After all, there are many people and events on the day of the wedding. If you don’t pay attention to bumping into something, it is too dangerous.

?? The five chapters are updated today, and there will be no special circumstances in the future, and they will be updated in the morning.
