Chapter 743
Chapter 740: Happy Water, Happy Fish

A Yin kowtowed to the four elders, and kowtowed to the elders of the village on both sides of the surrounding, and then she took the wine and drank farewell wine with her peers in the village.

It was obviously a happy event, but as soon as the wine bowl touched, everyone couldn't help feeling sour, and said auspicious words in their mouths, but the tears couldn't be controlled.

This situation, even a heart of stone, cannot help but be moved.

With tears in her eyes, Mother Ni handed A Yin the most important thing for Miao's daughter to marry, a cloth umbrella.

The road is sheltered from the wind and rain, and the shame along the way is covered.

After Ayin took the umbrella, she turned around and went out, stepped over the threshold with her right foot, and became a member of Auntie and Lijiagou from then on.

Holding an umbrella, Ayin walked towards the Lvdaomenfang leading to the forest farm under the escort of everyone, and turned around to look at her home when she reached the gatefang. Grandpa Yu and Dad Yin dared not come out of the main room, only Grandma Ou and Ni Mother, with tears in her eyes, leaned on the door and looked.

The people in the village have been sending the sending team and the welcoming team here, and then bid farewell to Ayin Yiyi, watching her and the sending team get on the battery car and drive towards the zip line.

Soon, gunshots rang out in the Miao Village, which was the highest courtesy.

The sound of gunshots echoed over the stockade, and a large number of birds flew up, colorful and colorful, as if the mountain god was blessing her with flowers.

The gifts sent by A Yin's family were also a big pig that had been slaughtered and shaved without removing its internal organs, one live chicken and one duck, two loads of dyed glutinous rice with more than a dozen dyed duck eggs on it, two white porcelain Bowl, two pairs of red Hsinchu chopsticks, and a jar of wine.

The chickens and ducks are still suspended from the bamboo shoots by Miao Wa, and they walk ahead on their shoulders.

The rest of the gifts are replaced by the woman's family.

During the period, among the two loads of glutinous rice, one load is kept as an offering to the man's family to worship the ancestors; the other load of glutinous rice is called "bridal rice", which is distributed to people who watch the wedding along the way, which is a symbol of good luck. Anyone who eats the bride's glutinous rice is said to have good luck in that year.

The people who sent the relatives off were all women, at least eight people, and most of the time, like now, almost all the girls in the village would accompany them.

One of them is the bride's sister-in-law, who is also a bridesmaid. Ayin has no sister-in-law, but there is a prospective sister-in-law, that is Adai. The role of Adai is to provide the bride with jacquard clothes and guide the bride to perform the etiquette.

Aunt Miao had been looking forward to it for a long time, and when she saw the welcoming team approaching, she immediately set off firecrackers.

When Ayin came to the door of the B&B, there was already a crowd of spectators.

Lao Chen and Lao Li didn't care whether they were celebrities or not. They set up a tripod and squeezed among a bunch of photographers with long guns and short guns. They took the shooting equipment brought by the crew and shot there in a serious manner.

The female star is hiding in the homestay, preparing to be a bridesmaid for Ayin today.

The team stopped in front of the B&B, and Yulian's sister-in-law came forward. This is the "Fu sister-in-law" selected by Aunt Miao. With a new face towel, first soaked some water in a copper basin, and then put it on Ayin's embroidered shoes. Wipe it, which means cleaning the dust.

A Yin handed the flower umbrella she brought from her mother's house to Alice who was waiting inside the door, and then stepped into the house with her left foot.
Then all the sisters who sent off their relatives filed in and walked into the main room of the groom's house.

At the same time, the big cousin, the second cousin, and the little cousin hurriedly received the gifts from the companions in the village.

Ayin stepped into the house with her left foot, indicating that she has become the housewife of the house since then.

Handing the umbrella to the groom's younger sister means that the uncle's daughter has returned to the aunt's house—this traditional custom is called "returning the bride's head".

After Ayin entered the main room, Alice and Shrily led her to the east of the main hall, and accompanied Ayin on both sides, one on the left and one on the right. The three of them sat facing the sacrifices. Each of the legs was covered with a new towel, ready to receive the gift.

Originally, the younger sister was supposed to accompany him, but Li Junge didn't have a younger sister, so he was replaced by these two mascot nieces who were about the same age.

The arrangement of sacrifices in the main room has changed again: a long table is placed in the middle, and on the table is a bowl containing three tails of cooked fish, three lumps of sticky rice, cooked pig's head, pig's heart, pig's liver, pig's heart, etc. Loin, pig lungs, pig feet and tail, and three bowls of wine.

Uncle Orion and Aunt Miao sat facing the offerings, and to the west was the procession of seeing off relatives.

Surrounded by tourists from today's Hunter's House, all of them became guests of the ceremony.

The tourists were delighted, they were very familiar with Ayin and Li Junge, and this time they actually caught up with their marriage.

The master of ceremonies is the old uncle.

The ceremony of offering sacrifices to the ancestors is the same as that on the mountain. First pour a little wine and pinch a few offerings and throw them on the ground to show the sacrifice to the ancestors, and then give praises.

"The red rope is tied to the feet, the phoenix sings in harmony; it is about to form a white head, and the knots are of the same heart.

The book is called Lijiang, and the poem chants Youqin;

The heavens and the earth are fixed, the bells and drums sound the same; the beautiful flowers are in the water, and the yushu shines on the forest.

The mandarin ducks fly to each other, and they hang out in the court; "

After the congratulations, the old uncle brought a glass of wine to Ayin, but Ayin couldn't take it with his hands, he just slapped him with his mouth, and then Adai who sent his relatives took the drink instead.

After drinking the "Welcome Wine", the old uncle took out three lumps of glutinous rice from the bowl, gave each of A Yin and Shirly and Alice who were sitting with him a lump, and placed them on the new towels covering their legs.

Then they took three more fish, one for each of them, and put them on the towels of the three of them, and the ceremony was considered complete.

Next, the relatives of the Li family presented gifts and wedding wine to A Yin.

This can only be the cousins ​​and sisters-in-law who are close relatives. If the Li family is counted, they will not be able to receive them all tomorrow.

So it's all meaning, the old lady gave me a flute.The sister-in-law in the lobby is a lady's watch, the sister-in-law in the second hall is a platinum necklace, and the sister-in-law in the small hall is a pair of gold bracelets.

These gifts and wedding wine are all collected and drunk by A Dai who gave them to relatives.

After the ceremony, Shirly and Alice helped Ayin into the house to change clothes, and then the ceremony of "picking happy water" and "catching happy fish" will be held.

When Ah Yin came out again, she had already changed into the usual Miao girl's usual clothes.

Shirly handed over a pair of buckets and a pole to A Yin, and smiled and led Alice to the well with a large water ladle and a fish cover.

As a result, the two sisters were not familiar with A Yin's road. Seeing the two of them nodding their chins wondering where the well was, A Yin smiled slightly and simply carried the bucket to lead the way, and the two sisters followed happily.

People gathered around, ready to watch Ah Yin catch fish and carry water.

Catching fish in the field is Li Junge's favorite thing. He has dug a few pits in the prepared field, and the water surface is so muddy that he can't see clearly, but the fish will not run away at all in the pit.

Li Junge had already told Ayin about the location. Sure enough, Ayin didn't even need to look. He swung the hood, took off his shoes, rolled up his trousers and went to the field. He touched two carp, one male and one female, and put them into the bucket.

On the edge of the field ridge, the hillside was already full of people, and they couldn't help applauding loudly when they saw how powerful the bride was.

At the edge of the well, Shirly and Alice squatted down and started to fetch water.

The wooden ladle is so big that the two sisters sang the lyrics while fetching water: "One scoop is auspicious—"

"Two ladles scoop up wealth—"

"Three scoops of children and grandchildren—"

"Four scoops of peace—"

"Five scoops of household belongings—"

It doesn't matter how much it is, but it is allowed to be single and not double.

Some people nearby laughed at this trick: "The husband and daughter-in-law should scoop more, the bride is so delicate, and she is so good at catching fish, now we want to see if she can carry water and change her shoulders, and whether her waist is strong... "

Then someone answered: "That's right, it depends on whether the steps are light or not, and whether the posture is beautiful or not!"

They were from a foreign country, and the people in Lijiagou couldn't help but roll their eyes at them.

Shirly is crazy on her own, and the more people around her make a fuss, the harder she scoops.

Alice, on the other hand, looked at Ayin worriedly, wondering if this new aunt can do it...

Ayin only smiled and signaled them to do whatever they wanted. Although she seldom carried water, she had already practiced this job at home these days.

Sure enough, the pole was on the left shoulder, and Ah Yin carried the water steadily all the way back to the hotel, and poured it into the water tank.

This caused a one-sided admiration from everyone. It was just two buckets of water. The people in Lijiagou were so happy that they screamed and jumped, and their slaps were red!
After picking out "Xi Shui", Aunt Miao took A Yin with a smile and picked up the broom, swept the ground a few times, and then went to the pestle to pound the rice symbolically.

These etiquettes all show that the bride is good at housework.

After the ceremony, Shirly and Alice led A Yin into the new house to rest.

Uncle Yaoshi took out the grass flag from his arms and handed it to Uncle Orion, who inserted the grass flag by the door, and the ceremony was officially over.

Uncle Yaoshi couldn't help but heaved a sigh of relief, and raised his hand to wipe off the sweat that didn't exist. This errand, it can be regarded as nothing wrong!

The homestay banquet was set up.The send-off team and the pick-up team sat on both sides, and the host and guest began to drink antiphonal songs facing each other, and everyone ate and drank to their heart's content.

Then the Lijiagou people who came to help out began to distribute the "bridal meal" brought from the village to everyone with laughter, letting people know that the host's wedding is grand and courteous.

The etiquette and customs of the Miao family are over here, and it is the turn of the Han family next.

The square in front of the ancestral hall has been repaired, and the banquet is ready to be placed there. There are 250 big red cloth tables, and the scene is already grand without waiting for people to sit.

In fact, this is not just a wedding banquet. It is actually the best demonstration of the Li family's economic strength, support from top to bottom, personal charm, and clan influence.

The oil kitchen teams from all townships are the best publicity. They take this Longmenzhen back, and everyone is going to talk about it for a year.

My darlings, from the province, city, county, abroad, and all over the country, many bigwigs came to congratulate Li Jiagou!Our four miles and eight villages can be regarded as outstanding people!
What?How many tables?This number!What a hundred, just say that you have never seen the world!One is 250 tables!Flow four seats!A whole thousand!
I don't know about the dowry, but Lao Li'er played the whole show!The Guangxi box is sixteen lifts, and each one is carved with lacquer!I heard from the people in the city who were happy to say that the box alone is worth [-] yuan!

And the big red sedan chair, the music and music team, especially the two Mr. Li and Mr. Zhike, who talked so much along the way... what did they say?I want to know what I said without showing off? !Anyway, it's just four words and eight sentences, but I can't understand it!
