Siheyuan, a comfortable life under Zhengyang Gate

On the 19th day of the twelfth lunar month, I helped out at Uncle Niu's house. After dinner, Yang Yukun gathered together the people who were going to pick up the bride tomorrow morning. He reiterated once again what to pay attention to and what each person who was going to help pick up the bride should do.

"While it's still early, everyone should go back and rest. Especially our drivers, please stay alert and don't drive while tired."

"Comrades who are going to help pick up the bride tomorrow, remember to gather at 3:30 in the morning."

"Okay, it's time to take a break and play cards."

After arranging everything, Yang Yukun asked the people who were going to pick up the bride tomorrow to go back and have some rest, especially the driver who needed to drive.

We will gather at 3:30 am tomorrow and set off on time at 4:30 am.

The bride's home is in the west city, not far from the front gate.

"I have to go back and get some sleep. I'll drive the main wedding car tomorrow."

"I have to go back and take a nap. I have to get up early tomorrow morning to prepare for the wedding banquet. Lao Yang, let's go and sleep at my place."

"Row."

"Xiaokun, do you want to go back?"

"You guys go back, I'll stay up all night."

"That's fine."

"Slow down."

After Han Chunming and others left, Yang Yukun came into the room to watch others play cards.

Neighbors who have work to do tomorrow have basically gone back to rest, and those who are left playing cards basically have nothing to do tomorrow.

After watching others play cards for a while, Yang Yukun brought a chair and went to chat with Uncle Guan and Uncle Niu.

The master will go to help pick up the bride tomorrow. After dinner, he stayed for a while and then went back to sleep.

"Uncle Kun, please have a smoke." Niu Ben distributed cigarettes to everyone again.

"Throw a pack on the table and let whoever wants to draw take it."

"it is good."

"Boy, I'm thirsty. Go get me a cup of tea."

"Got it."

Niu Ben placed a pack of cigarettes on each card table, and a large plate of melon seeds, peanuts and candies, then went to pour a bowl of tea for Yang Yukun.

"Okay, go entertain your classmates."

This guy is popular. There were more than twenty classmates from junior high school, high school and university who came to the wedding. Yang Yukun asked Niu Ben to greet his classmates.

"By the way, Master Niu, when will Master Pian arrive tomorrow morning?"

"Nine o'clock tomorrow morning."

"Then I'll arrange for someone to pick them up at the train station tomorrow morning."

Pianerye will also rush back from the Northeast this time. His old friend’s grandson is getting married, so he has to come back to see him.

Tomorrow morning at nine o'clock, the wedding procession will have returned by then, and we can just arrange someone to go to the train station to pick up Pianerye and his son.

They chatted idly and before they knew it, a few hours had passed and neighbors who were there to help pick up the bride arrived one after another.

"It's really cold, disciple, Old Man Guan, Master Niu..."

"Master, come and warm yourself by the fire. Please sit here."

"Master Marquis is here."

"Master Guan, Master Hou, Master Niu..."

"They're all here."

"Everyone is here. Let's line up the motorcade first and put up the wedding decorations and other things."

The main wedding car was prepared yesterday, and the other vehicles can just put some decorations and a "囍" character on them.

After everyone arrived, Yang Yukun asked the driver to arrange the fleet in order and tie on the stripes and other things.

In the crowd, there was a man holding a video camera, who was hired from the Mona Lisa Photo Studio to take videos.

"The groom's official is here."

"Not bad, Si Niu. This groom's suit looks pretty handsome on you."

"Uncle Map, I am handsome, okay?"

"Today is your big day, I will be unscrupulous today. You are really handsome, even more handsome than Uncle Kun."

"Uncle Didi, I dare not compete with Uncle Kun in handsomeness. Everyone knows that Uncle Kun is the most handsome man in our capital. He is over thirty years old but looks like he is twenty. He is not only handsome but also very elegant. Yesterday, Feifei and Xiaoya asked me if Uncle Kun has a boyfriend."

Mao Ditu actually praised him as being more handsome than Yang Yukun, which is really against one's conscience.

There is no one in the entire imperial capital, the entire Xia Kingdom, and the entire earth who can compare to Yang Yukun in terms of handsomeness.

Yang Yukun's appearance has not changed in the past decade.

Not only has her appearance not changed, but she has become more and more elegant.

Two female college classmates who came to attend his and Chen Si's wedding secretly asked Yang Yukun if he had a girlfriend after seeing him yesterday.

After learning that Yang Yukun was over 30 years old and had three children, they couldn't believe it and thought he was joking.

Among Niu Ben’s classmates, two girls blushed when they heard this. They were the ones who asked Niu Ben yesterday whether Yang Yukun had a girlfriend.

"It seems that everyone knows it well. Don't compete with me in handsomeness, or you will bring shame upon yourself." Yang Yukun said with a smile: "Okay, no more jokes, let's get ready and set off on time at 4:30."

"Got it."

"Si Niu, did you remember the etiquette of welcoming the bride that I taught you yesterday?" "I remember them all."

"Qingshan, you didn't wash your face, there's still eye boogers hanging on your face."

"Uncle Kun, it's too cold. I forgot to put hot water in the thermos last night and I was too lazy to heat it up this morning."

"Go wash your face. You are such a handsome guy, but you look so sloppy. There are many girls of your age at the bride's side. You should tidy up your messy hair. What if a girl likes you?"

"Okay, I'll go right away."

"Listen to me, young men who don't have girlfriends, when you go to pick up the bride, don't be shy if you see a girl of the same age on the bride's side. If you are attracted to her, just boldly ask her if she has a boyfriend or not. Don't be afraid of being rejected."

"Xiao Kun is right. All you single guys should listen carefully. If you want to find a partner, you have to be brave, otherwise you will never have a chance."

Niu Ben smiled and said, "There are more than a dozen female classmates from Sisi's group, and there are also a dozen girls in their twenties."

Yang Yukun said with a smile: "Did you hear that? Seize the opportunity. If anyone can really bring one back, I will give him a big red envelope."

"You guys who don't have a girlfriend, did you hear that?"

"hey-hey……."

"Hey bullshit, I have to remind you too, asking you to ask a girl if she has a boyfriend doesn't mean you should act like a hooligans, if she wants to date you it's a good thing, if she doesn't want to date you don't need to pester her too much."

"hey-hey……."

"It's almost time, Master Niu, have you prepared everything you need?"

"Everything is ready."

"Then let's go."

The time is almost up, and the wedding procession sets out to pick up the bride.

Not long after the convoy set off, Han Chunming, Fan Xiaojun and other people from the kitchen arrived one after another.

The wedding banquet is scheduled to be held at noon, so the kitchen has to come early in the morning to prepare for the wedding banquet to ensure that it can start on time.

With nothing to do, Yang Yukun ran to the stove to help light the fire.

In the cold winter, burning fire is the most comfortable job.

"The bride is back!"

"Here we go, fire the cannon."

"Crackling... bang bang bang..."

When the bride enters the house, the people who go to help welcome the bride bring in all kinds of dowry sent by the bride's family.

A group of little kids ran behind, picking up firecrackers and grabbing red envelopes.

"dad."

"Dad, look, I grabbed three red envelopes!"

“I grabbed five!”

"I grabbed two!"

"Third Uncle, I also grabbed two...!"

A group of little ones ran to the kitchen, each holding a few red envelopes in their hands, each containing two cents.

"Xiao Kun, Xiao Wu Ge, Xiao Jun."

"Dad, Uncle Jian, Uncle Map."

"Uncle, Uncle Jian, Uncle Map."

"Uncle Hou..."

"uncle……."

"Here, one for each of you." Yang Huajian and Mao Ditu took out a stack of red envelopes from their pockets and gave one to each of the little ones.

They were responsible for distributing the red envelopes, and there were still more than a dozen left.

Yang Yukun said: "Brother-in-law, Brother Jian, Brother Tu, who of you will go to the train station to pick up the film?"

"Is Pian'er Ye back?"

"We'll be at the train station at nine o'clock, so now is a good time to go."

"I'll go pick it up. By the way, here are the car keys. I'll drive your Pangu Wrangler."

Hou Kui returned the key of the Chiqi three-row luxury car to Yang Yukun, and drove Yang Yukun's Pangu Wrangler SUV to the train station to pick up Pianerye.

"Uncle Kun, Uncle Xiaowu, Uncle Jun, these are your car keys."

"Qingshan, how is it?"

"Uncle Kun, what's going on?"

"Your sister-in-law Sisi has so many single girls. Have you ever taken the initiative to ask if they are willing to date?"

"Uncle Kun, I'm so scared. My heart is beating fast and my legs are shaking. I don't dare to ask."

"Get lost."

Yang Yukun kicked the boy and asked him to go away.

I casually put the car keys into the portable planting space. These are the Pangu Wrangler car keys of my father-in-law, mother-in-law and Xu Jingping.

The table was already set up at the reception desk, and the Minister of Rites had taken office. Yang Yukun went to buy a meal ticket first. (End of this chapter)
