Siheyuan: Start with a big car

Chapter 61 Lying down is really comfortable

"Brother Liu, Xie Cheng will get married on the fourth day of next month, and you must come then."

"I watched Xie Chengyun grow up. Is he going to get married? A big happy event, where should we do it? Donglaishun or a tavern?"

"This is an invitation card, it is clearly written on it, please take a look." The third mother felt a little ashamed.

"Hey, there are invitation cards! The third master is a cultural person, he really pays attention to it. Hiss. 6 yuan gift money!" Liu Cheng took the invitation card, just glanced at it, and couldn't help but gasp.

The gift money is 6 yuan, each family can only send one representative, and the wedding banquet will be held in the front yard.
Old Yan's family's abacus and beads are jingling, do you treat everyone else as a big wrong?

"Old Liu, we have been old neighbors for so many years, and your third son is still in Lao Yan's class, and you don't want to." The third mother recited what Yan Bugui taught her.

"Ah, haha!" Liu Cheng scratched his head and laughed awkwardly, "If I'm free that day, I'll definitely go."

Three moms: "My old Yan has checked, and the fourth day of next month is Sunday, so you must be free."

Liu Cheng: "."

After sending away the third mother, Liu Cheng went back to the house angrily, and showed the invitation to Mrs. Liu.

Mrs. Liu put down her fire chopsticks, hopped her feet, and stretched Liu Cheng: "Old Yan's family is doing this, so you don't know how to take advantage of our family? Why did you agree?"

"What are you talking about, you bitch.

I could be a mallet!

The gift money of 6 yuan is too dark.

Residents in our compound usually pay 2 yuan to get married.

But they all live in the same compound, and you can't see them when you look up.

People have sent invitations, so it's not appropriate for us not to go. "

Liu Cheng had no choice but to squat at the door and smoke the dry pipe.

The curling smoke covered his rough face with countless wrinkles carved by the years.

He is a porter, and his monthly salary is only 31 yuan. He has to support a blind mother and six children, and his life is very tight.

Seeing the man's appearance, Mrs. Liu knew that it was impossible for him to refuse directly.

Putting on a padded jacket and going out: "The Yan family's treat is definitely not just our family, let's go to the old camphor tree and listen to what the big guys have to say?"

"Yes, yes, yes, what do others do, what do we do."

When they came to the middle courtyard, the two immediately felt that they had come to the right place.

Under the old camphor tree, there are already crowds of people.

Everyone was worrying about the Yan family's invitation, and the reason was similar to theirs.

If you go to a banquet, the gift money is too heavy.

Don't go, I can't hold back my face, I feel too out of place.

Even Liu Haizhong, a seventh-level blacksmith with a monthly salary of 73, was so angry that the corners of his mouth trembled.

"Old Yan is not a thing anymore. When other people hold wedding banquets, the gift money is handed out casually, just to celebrate.

He is good, and he must ask each family to pay 6 yuan. Why, just because he is a cultural person?Is it a smelly old man? "

Liu Haizhong looked down on Yan Pugui the most.

——Of course, the main reason is that he didn't become a leader because of his low culture.
But Yan Bugui just likes to put the scores of cultural people in front of him.

"I agree with the second uncle's opinion." Xu Damao, who had always had a good relationship with the Yan family, also felt that Yan Bugui was going too far.

The gift money of 6 yuan is enough to go to Lao Mo to eat noodles.

For a moment, everyone under the old camphor tree was filled with righteous indignation at the actions of the Yan family.

However, no one can do anything about it.

People pay attention to face these days, even if they are going to be ruined soon, and the whole family only has one pair of pants, they have to raise money to attend the wedding of relatives and friends, or they will be poked in the back in the future.

Yan Bugui's move is really amazing.

Just when the big guy was sighing, He Yushui squatted down, picked up a dead tree leaf, and said with a long sigh: "It would be nice if Brother Wei Dong also held a wedding banquet on the 4th of next month, and we would have an excuse not to go to Yan's wedding banquet." gone."

These words woke up everyone.

"Snapped!"

Xu Damao, who was the first to react, slapped his thigh suddenly.

"That's right, how could I have forgotten this. Two wedding banquets are held at the same time, we can only choose one to go, and the Yan family has nothing to say. Silly Zhu, you have a good relationship with Li Weidong, go ask."

Silly Zhu clutched his thigh and grinned in pain: "Xu Damao, grandson thief, did you do it on purpose?"

"Hey, I'm so excited, I made a mistake, I made a mistake" Xu Damao took advantage of it, and he was so happy that he couldn't close his mouth from ear to ear.

"I think you just want to be beaten!" Sha Zhu was not used to him, and he rolled up his sleeves and was about to rush forward.

Liu Haizhong stopped between the two of them and said, "Stop arguing, this matter is related to the unity and stability of our compound, you should ask Li Weidong as soon as possible, silly Zhu."

"Record the account first this time, and I will calculate it with you next time!"

Silly Zhu said a harsh word, turned his head and ran to Li's house in the backyard.

inside the house.

Li Weidong was drawing, and after listening to Shazhu's words, he frowned: "Didn't I say that the family can't hold a wedding banquet because of poverty?"

Silly Zhu looked at the bicycles, radios, and sewing machines in the house, pursed his lips and said nothing.

Yu Li, who was tidying up the house next to her, also wiped her hands, came over and nodded in agreement: "Brother Zhuzi, Wei Dong and I are not the kind of extravagant and wasteful people. I have made up my mind. When Wei Dong goes out to buy goods, I will also Follow along, it’s a traveling wedding.”

"Travel wedding."

Silly Zhu was speechless, so he could only turn his head and run out, telling everyone what Li Weidong meant.

The last hope was gone, and the big guy exploded all at once.

After severely reprimanding Li Weidong for not knowing how to think about others, everyone sighed and drooped their heads.

It's like the leeks that my aunt planted in the flower pond, the ones that haven't been watered for two months.

"Snapped!"

I have to say that Xu Damao was still thinking. He slapped his thigh again and said, "Isn't Li Weidong out of money for a wedding banquet? We can chip in for him."

Lou Xiao'e twisted his waist fiercely, "Smelly problem! You want to slap your legs, slap your own."

"It hurts too much..." Xu Damao glared at her.

"Then I won't be in pain anymore? I think you need to clean up!"

As the couple talked, they started scratching with their paws.

Liu Haizhong hurriedly stopped the two of them, looked at the big guy, and said: "I think Xu Damao's idea is good. Anyway, I ate it in my own stomach in the end, so it's not a waste."

Everyone nodded in agreement.

"It doesn't cost much for a table of good food, and at most, each family pays more than 1 yuan per household."

"I passed by the front yard just now, but I saw Lao Yan bought a lot of big radishes."

"As long as Lao Yan is so stingy, it will be difficult for us to find a piece of meat on the vegetable table."

"Hey, you still want to eat meat. Didn't you see Mrs. Jia jumping up and down? She must be bringing a washbasin this time."

"I think it's more appropriate to pool money to hold a wedding banquet for Li Weidong."

"Just let the big guys chip in for a big meal, and let the children satisfy their hunger!"

……

The power of two evils should be taken lightly. Compared with the gift money of 6 yuan, it seems acceptable to chip in to hold a wedding banquet for Li Weidong.

Seeing that everyone in Liu Haizhong agreed with his proposal, his heart suddenly blossomed with joy.

He had long wanted to show his presence in the courtyard.

It's just that there is an eighth-grade fitter, the uncle, on the top, and Yan Bugui, the elementary school teacher on the bottom, is holding it back, and he has been unable to intervene.

It's time for him, the second uncle, to show his face this time.

"Then it's settled. I will negotiate with Li Weidong myself."

Liu Haizhong came to Li's house with everyone's expectations, and explained everyone's intentions.

"So, you chipped in to hold a wedding banquet for me, and I don't need to pay for it?" Li Weidong was also stunned by his brain circuit.

Isn't this crowdfunding from the previous life?

Liu Haizhong patted his chest and promised: "Not only do you not need to pay money, you don't need to reach out to help. Although my old Liu is only the second uncle, I still have a lot of prestige in the courtyard. I promise to do it properly for you. You Just wait and eat ready-made ones with Yu Li."

Hi, it's interesting, picking up a wedding banquet for nothing.

Sure enough, as long as I lie flat, you can't exploit me.

Li Weidong: "If I don't accept it, I'm sorry for everyone's expectations?"

"That's for sure, the whole hospital is looking forward to hosting a wedding banquet for you!" Liu Haizhong nodded heavily.

Li Weidong: "If I don't accept it, will it destroy the stability and unity of our compound?"

"That's absolute, it's the voice of the masses!" Liu Haizhong was about to cry.

Nima, be a human being.

Li Weidong heaved a long sigh, took advantage of the situation and lay back directly, that is, tactically leaned back, and his face was full of compassion: "Oh, I wanted to respond to the call from above and carry forward the style of diligence and thrift. Since this is the big guy's expectation Hope, I can't refuse. Who made me always pay attention to uniting the masses!"

"For the sake of the big guy, I decided to sacrifice myself and violate the principle once."

"."

Liu Haizhong always felt that Li Weidong was cheap and good-looking.

But this matter really can't be played without Li Weidong.

He could only sneer and say, "Weidong, the second uncle will remember your sacrifice in his heart."
