Siheyuan: living in a prosperous era

Chapter 26 The Wedding Banquet
In the blink of an eye, Sunday came, Yang Shuning's wedding day.

"Everyone in our courtyard who gets married is a fool. Isn't it inappropriate for you to invite someone else?" The third uncle asked when he saw Yang Shuning going out.

"It's not like you don't know that you are like Silly Zhu. If you give him money, you have to show shame to us. It's like we beg him. It's not worth it. You might as well ask someone else. Whoever earns this money doesn't earn it. Anyway, it's not worth it. You have to pay for it. And today is my wedding day, so I’ve hired a chef a long time ago. I’m not looking for a fool."

Yan Bugui originally planned to get some benefits from the process, but now it seems that he has made up his mind to not use Silly Zhu and didn't say anything. After all, Silly Zhu is really annoying, and he often offends him with his words.

"Third uncle, I have to ask you to go there early at the guest house. You will need your help for a lot of time."

"Okay, I'll go over and watch after breakfast. My Jie Cheng is also up and will be fine soon."

Yang Shuning's classmates were all out of town, so they simply asked Yan Jiecheng and Liu Guangqi from the courtyard to be the best men. They were a high school student and a technical secondary school student, and their status was sufficient.Not long after waiting, Yang Shuning took Yan Jiecheng and Liu Guangqi to pick up the bride. The three of them rode three bicycles to their father-in-law's house with wedding candies and red envelopes.

My father-in-law had previously wanted to provide a jeep from the security office to pick up the bride, and some elders even said that they could provide a military jeep. However, considering that he has not officially worked yet and cannot take advantage of the public service, he might as well continue to use a bicycle.

As soon as he arrived downstairs at his father-in-law's house, his brother-in-law Wang Jianguo came over with a group of half-year-old children to rob him.

"My brother-in-law is here, come here quickly, everyone, come here quickly."

Yang Shuning also has a black line on his forehead. His brother-in-law is trying to rebel against his brother-in-law.

"Stop shouting, come here and get candies and red envelopes. After you get them, get out of the way, okay?" Yang Shuning shouted to several children.The red envelopes were prepared yesterday, and each red envelope costs a dime.

"I know, I know, brother-in-law, hurry up and send it."

Yang Shuning opened the candy bag, divided a few pieces of candy between each person, and gave a red envelope.A group of children happily let the door go with candies and red envelopes.

After entering the house and talking to his father-in-law and mother-in-law, he took Wang Xue out.Yang Shuning took Wang Xue, Liu Guangqi and Yan Jiecheng and rode towards the courtyard with Wang Xue's dowry...

Yang Shuhao, who was waiting at the gate of the compound, saw a few people coming back and shouted quickly: "My brother is back, Jie Kuang, hurry up and light the firecrackers."

"I got it, click on it right away. Holy shit, Brother Hao, the stick has torn apart quite a few firecrackers." Yan Jiekuang turned around and saw that half of the firecrackers hanging on the stick were missing. The stick was too fast. Pay attention and he will succeed.

"This little bastard, ignore him for now, light the rest, and deal with him later." Yang Shuhao said angrily. It was the first time he was entrusted with an important task, and Bangge actually dared to cause trouble for him.

Yang Shuning took Wang Xue back to the courtyard, gave the candy and red envelopes to Yan Jiekuang, Liu Guangfu and other children, and then moved the things to the bedroom in the east wing and put them away.

Then Yang Shuning led a group of people to the guest house of the steel rolling mill. Others in the courtyard had already arrived.

Nowadays, weddings are generally scheduled to take place at noon to facilitate the coming and going of guests.

The wedding ceremony started at twelve o'clock at noon. Uncle Lin served as the witness. The ceremony in this era was very simple. The two sang the song Dongfanghong, took out the marriage certificate and showed it, and the wedding ceremony was over.

Compared to other weddings in the courtyard, more guests came to Yang Shuning's wedding.My father's comrades in arms, my mother's colleagues and friends, my father-in-law's comrades and colleagues, and Yang Shuning's high school classmates, plus the neighbors in the courtyard, all added up to six tables.Finally, there is a table of driver secretaries for the elders, making it seven tables.

Nan Yi also started busy early in the morning with his helper.

As the father-in-law opened the table, the first aunt, the second aunt, and the third aunt started serving the dishes.

Yang Shuning watched the food begin to arrive, so La and Wang Xue began to toast the elders, while Yan Jiecheng followed behind with a wine bottle.

Yang Shuning came to the table of his father's comrades, "Uncle Lin, Uncle Zhang, you guys have a nice meal and a drink, I'll give you a drink first." After saying that, he picked it up and drank it in one gulp. "Oh, oh, Shu Ning, you can't do this. How can you toast so many people with one glass of wine? You have to toast one glass at a time." Uncle Lin said.

"Uncle Lin is right, you should drink more on this special day." Uncle Zhang from the Capital Materials Bureau also said.

Yang Shuning watched several elders speak. : "Okay, since the elders say so, then I will toast you one cup at a time."

As he spoke, he drank a drink with Uncle Lin first, then turned around and drank another drink with Uncle Zhang...

After toasting a table of wine, Yang Shuning took Wang Xue back to his seat and started to eat something to cushion the bar. There were five tables behind him.

"Shuning, do you need me to hold a few drinks for you later?" Yan Jiecheng said, since Yang Shuning asked him to be the best man, he couldn't just eat and do nothing.

"Okay, you can help us in the courtyard later."

Then he toasted to his mother’s colleagues and friends. Many of the people at the table were not from the army, but mainly there were several women, such as Director Wang from the subdistrict office. Yang Shuning toasted half a glass to each of them and then spent the day.

When we arrived at the father-in-law's table, it was the same as Uncle Lin and the others. They didn't say anything, but everyone was toasted.

When I arrived at the table with my high school classmates, I was made a joke.

"Hey, Shu Ning, can you please stop bragging? I think you will be the first one to fall down later. I think you are about to die. Don't let our sister-in-law stay alone in the empty house at night." One is already working as an electrician. The classmate joked.

"You'll find out later if this is bragging. Also, I don't know if my Xue'er stayed alone in the vacant house, but when you got married before, your sister-in-law must have stayed alone in the vacant house."

"Why do you remember so clearly? Come on, drink, drink."

After the toast, he went to his seat and continued to eat. After waiting for a while, he went to toast again and then came back to eat. He repeated the toast four times.Yan Jiecheng helped the neighbors at the last two tables in the courtyard.

After they were sent away, Yang Shuning and Wang Xue handed out wedding candies to the elder friends who came to have a wedding today, and the wedding was over.

After watching the driver put the elders into the car, Yang Shuning was ready to go home.They all drank too much today, and Yang Shuning's wedding banquet also gave them the opportunity to get together at the table and talk and laugh about the past.

It was already three o'clock in the afternoon when we got home. The third uncle left the gift money and the account book. In the evening, Yang's mother also went to sleep in the elder brother's house. Today's east wing belonged to Yang Shuning and Wang Xue.

Yang Shuning took out the treasures left by his elders and the family's savings and gave them to Xue'er.

"Xue'er, you will be the housekeeper of our family from now on!"

Wang Xue was shocked when she saw her husband's rich family background. Yang Shuning also moved her index finger when she saw Wang Xue's appearance at this time.

Full and warm thoughts~~

"No, I haven't shown you my dowry yet. I'll serve you tonight." Wang Xue's voice reminded me.

"We'll look at the dowry later."

Then there was the sound of the door closing. The following content cannot be viewed for a fee.
