Chapter 80 Understand but disagree
Dongsheng Hotel is the most luxurious hotel in the county. A hall on the second floor is dedicated to hosting banquets, which can accommodate thirty tables.

Liu Zhi and the others were seated in another medium-sized hall next to the hall. They originally booked ten banquet tables, but because time was too tight, they only sat at six tables.

The other five tables were occupied by Sun Fang and his wife. The brothers and sisters on both sides and the family members were only half occupied. The other table was occupied by the elders who were closer to the village, such as Liu Zhi's fourth and fifth grandmothers, and Sun Fang. My old aunt, two of Sun Fang’s classmates, and three other families in the village who had a good relationship.

Although it is simple, it is also lively. Five or six children of different ages are running around happily in the hall, while the adults are busy chatting about something.

There was a small stage at the front, and two duo actors were performing on it to entertain everyone.

The waiters were constantly on their feet, bringing drinks to each table.

The atmosphere was peaceful, warm and joyful.

It is expected that the meal will start in about half an hour. Various fruits have been served on the six tables, and they are all uncommon varieties in the north, such as lychees, bananas, mangosteens, mangoes, etc., as well as various nuts, cigarettes, etc. Drinks, tea, etc.

A group of people were shocked when they first saw this scene. This ostentation looked really expensive, so they all took the time to eat.

Especially the men who smoked were unabashedly shocked. The cigarettes on the table were unique to them. A box cost more than 50. There were five boxes on a table. They obediently took a puff of cigarettes in silence. No one spoke.

Only Uncle Liu, a non-smoker, glanced gently at Liu Jianping, who was sitting next to him, and asked, "Where is Azhi? Why is there no one after getting married?"

The shock in his heart was no less than that of everyone present, but he was good at sorting out his emotions and did not show it. Even if he wanted to ask what was going on, he would have to wait until the right time.

Liu Jianping didn't seem to be aware of his thoughts. As usual, when others asked, he would reply: "Um, I went to take photos and will be back soon."

As soon as he finished speaking, Sun Fang walked over with a smile: "Everyone eat first, the food will be served on time, and they will definitely catch up when they come back."

Even though she seemed to be smiling so happily, she was actually almost pissed off by Liu Zhi and the two of them. She had been gritting her teeth and enduring it since she entered the hotel.

Damn woman, spend money lavishly. She has already asked the waiter that such a table costs 2000 yuan, not counting the cigarettes on the table. She can't think about it, otherwise, her heart will be so painful that it will be difficult to breathe.

She can't eat anything. How much money does she have to spend like this? She also has to order ten tables of banquets. Oh, this is so annoying!
The ten-table banquet was definitely not possible. After the hotel manager saw the number of people who came, he called Jiang Zhixing to confirm. Unfortunately, the banquet that had been booked could not be canceled, so he had to pack the ingredients and distribute them to everyone.

They are all good things, and it is normal for Sun Fang to be reluctant to part with them.

The actors on the stage were performing seriously, making the audience laugh from ear to ear. Of course, most people were not in the mood to listen to this, and one by one they took out what Liu Zhi said last night and pondered over it. With.

Didn't it mean that the young man was a pauper from the mountains, or that the young man deliberately made the banquet so expensive in order to save face? Everyone looked normal, but in their hearts they were thinking crazily about what the possibility was.

After the performance was completed and the actors had all retreated, the banquet officially began, with waiters pushing carts and starting to serve dishes one by one.

The appetizers were all cold dishes, beef, ham, lotus root, cold rabbit, etc. were slowly served, and all the fruit plates that Zhuo Zaishang had had were removed.

When everyone is drooling over the dishes.

Suddenly, they heard a young man's voice that was amplified several times, and they all turned their heads to look.

Under the lights of the original stage, two handsome men and women holding hands slowly walked out.

The man was in a black suit, with a tall and straight figure, a sharp but soft face, and messy but charming hair. He looked at the woman next to him, his cheeks were rosy and shiny, and the bright red skirt on his body was a style they had never seen before. The woman is even more eye-catching, and the red hairpin on the back of her head is the finishing touch.

What a perfect match.

The old ladies sitting in the middle widened their eyes and thought of the best words they could think of.

Even several of Sun Fang's friends and classmates nearby were stunned and didn't care about Zhuo Zaishang's delicacies or anything else.

"Welcome all relatives and friends to come to my wedding with Liu Zhi despite your busy schedule. Once again, I solemnly thank you all." Jiang Zhixing held Liu Zhi tightly with his right hand, and held a silver With the microphone in his hand, he walked to the center of the stage and stood still.

The gentle yet magnetic voice sounded again.

Only then did everyone come back to their senses and couldn't help but start talking quietly.

"This, this is Azhi and that guy."

"What is Azhi wearing? It looks so good."

"Fangfang, you are so lucky. This son-in-law looks very talented. He is really good."

Jiang Zhixing ignored everyone's whispers, but turned his head and glanced at Liu Zhi with a smile. Then, facing everyone, he continued: "This is a very simple wedding. It does not meet the expectations of all of us. However, I think Said, although it is simple, it is not simple. We can’t lack anything we should have in marriage, and everyone should eat and drink well. Also, I actually have a lot of joy, but I won’t say more here today. Next, I want to Before everyone eats, go through the wedding ceremony briefly.

Everyone, the rural people were puzzled.

Jiang Zhixing changed his tone and looked directly at Sun Fang and Liu Jianping with the microphone: "I would like to invite uncles and aunts to come on stage first."

Sun Fang curled her lips in embarrassment. She didn't want to go up, but her friend next to her excitedly pushed her: "Come up quickly, your son-in-law is calling you."

The couple was pushed onto the stage, with a look of despair on their faces. They had serious expressions on their faces, but they just felt ashamed and panicked.

Liu Zhi
You really don’t have to force yourself like that, that’s a good thing, Mom.

Just as everyone looked over with curious looks, Jiang Zhixing suddenly took a red silk tray from a waiter's hand.

Sun Fang, Liu Jianping?
What do you mean?
"What are you doing?" The old ladies in the audience squinted and couldn't see what was on the tray.

Everyone was itching and couldn't wait to rush up and take a closer look.

Aunt Liu San curled her lips, and secretly sneered: "It's all mysterious."

Jiang Zhixing had no ink marks. He held the tray and pulled Liu Zhi to walk in front of Sun Fang and his wife: "Mom and Dad, today Liu Zhi and I have officially become husband and wife. From now on, we will share weal and woe and stay together for a lifetime. Thank you for this." We will always honor you and dad for your cultivation and love for Azhi."

Jiang Zhixing said this in a low but powerful voice, with sincere eyes. Liu Zhi pursed her lips, smiled reluctantly, and only said: "Okay. Okay."

"Mom and Dad, this bank card is worth 20 yuan. It is my betrothal gift to Azhi. Also, this gold bracelet is our meeting gift to mom. This watch is our meeting gift to dad." Ah, following 20 Everyone had not recovered from Wan's betrothal gift. When they heard about the meeting gift again, the scene became even more silent.I’ve only heard that parents give gifts to their children when they are born. Why is it the other way around here?

Sun Fang was also stunned for a moment. Fortunately, she reacted quickly. She had a red envelope with her just in case, so she quickly took it out and put it in the tray. She motioned to Liu Jianping to quickly take out the red envelope as well: "It should be us. I gave you the red envelope, now that we are married, the two of you can live a good life."

A waiter was pushing a cart and started serving food, so Sun Fang took the opportunity to end the conversation.

"Bring elbows, chicken, fish, squid, roast duck, prawns, sea cucumbers, seafood, etc. to the table one after another."

But everyone was a little absent-minded, some were suspicious, some were envious, and some obviously didn't believe it. The 20 yuan gift must be fake, the gold bracelet given must be fake, and there are also watches, I don't know where. A bargain found.

This meal can be described as having mixed emotions.

Liu Zhi didn't speak until the banquet really started, then she took Jiang Zhixing and toasted to the relatives with wine glasses and formally introduced them to each other.

At this time, no one was ignorant and deliberately made trouble or said unpleasant things. The introduction was completed smoothly and received some gifts from relatives and friends.

After all, Liu Zhi was four months pregnant, so she was still a little tired after going through so much trouble.

The two of them did not eat with everyone, but ate something casually in the hotel lounge, and then rested on the sofa.

"What have you prepared? Why are there such big bags?" There are about a hundred bags on the ground, and each bag is almost as big as the one selling clothes outside.

Liu Zhi saw Jiang Zhixing cleaning up and asked curiously.

Is this really a return gift?The bag doesn't look light.

Jiang Zhixing smiled, put things in order, washed his hands, and then sat on the sofa. He gently put a hand on Liu Zhi's belly and said casually: "All the people here today are very close relatives. "Although our wedding is simple, it cannot be underestimated. It contains some relatively valuable return gifts."

Speaking of which, in fact, the return gift he originally prepared was only three hundred yuan. However, after receiving news from Xiao Le last night, he realized that the return gift was now worth several thousand yuan.

Seeing Liu Zhi's curiosity, he took one over, opened it, and introduced Liu Zhi one by one: "There are eight varieties in total, two servings of each."

As he finished speaking, Jiang Zhixing took out one thing and placed it on the coffee table: two gold-wrapped candies, two bottles of wine, and two packs of cigarettes.Two boxes of tea, two boxes of bird's nest, and two boxes of donkey-hide gelatin.

Liu Zhi, she looked at the things on the coffee table without saying a word for a while. After a while, she looked at the candies with only two candies blankly, and asked in confusion: "These, two candies? Is there anything special about it?"

When Jiang Zhixing mentioned these two candies, he couldn't help sobbing at the corner of his mouth. He exhaled helplessly and said slowly: "The candy wrappers are made of gold. These two candies are worth one gram of gold."

what are you saying.

Liu Zhi blinked and looked up at him.

Jiang Zhixing.
Rubbing his eyes, Jiang Zhixing poured out Xiao Le: "My original budget was three hundred yuan, which is already pretty good. Who knows, he prepared these and just told me last night , that candy is made of gold."

Liu Zhi
Liu Zhi silently tightened her body and buried her head on her knees, feeling that happiness had left her.

This is inappropriate, the thought flashed through both of their minds at the same time.However, the banquet was almost over and it was too late to prepare again. There were rules for everything.

She looked at Jiang Zhixing, what were her dark eyes accusing?
This matter cannot be blamed on Xiao Le. If anyone should be blamed, it must be Jiang Zhixing, who asked him to leave such a matter to Xiao Le.

Scratching their heads, the two finally stared at each other in silence. They understood Xiao Le's mood but couldn't agree with it. Everything should have a degree.

"Hey," he sighed deeply in unison.

"It's better to go to the hotel and buy some candies temporarily. I'll exchange these two candies for them. Other things are a little more expensive, which makes sense. But forget about the candies made of gold. People will have to say that you have two cents behind your back. Damn it." Liu Zhi leaned on the sofa and thought about the only way.

By the time she received Sun Fang's call, the banquet was coming to an end. Jiang Zhixing asked a hotel waiter for help and brought all the rewrapped return gifts to the door of the banquet hall.

Then the two of them stood at the door, and the family gave a bag of gifts to everyone they met. Even without two gold-wrapped candies, the bag of gifts was still valuable and heavy in the hands.

Everyone who holds it in their hands has a surprised look on their face. Although they are curious, they can't take it apart now.

"Auntie, walk slowly,"

"Grandma Fourth, walk slowly."

"Grandma Wu, walk slowly"

Facing the elders who came out, Liu Zhi and Jiang Zhixing stood respectfully at the door to see off the guests one by one.

It's common to say something like "Good boy, live a good life once you get married."

After sending away the seventh aunt and the eighth aunt, Liu Zhi held on to her waist, feeling sore.

When we went back, we were still sent back by bus.

As for the extra four tables of dishes, we also asked the hotel to pack them up and take them back to relatives.

Sun Fang and Liu Jianping did not go back with the others.

The reason is that Jiang Zhixing plans to buy a house by the way, and Liu Zhi also wants Sun Fang to spend the money to buy a house quickly. If he doesn't buy it now while the house price is cheap, he plans to buy it when, and waits for a few more years. The money you save will only get further and further away from your goal of buying a house.

When Jiang Zhixing had no time to spare, he saw off his relatives and was busy going to the hotel to check out. He also went to the photo studio to pick up photos.Liu Zhi and his parents were still waiting for him to take a rest in the hotel box.

Sun Fang was annoyed when she saw Liu Zhi, but as soon as she raised her hand, she felt the heavy gold bracelet on her arm. Then she looked at the high-end watch on her husband's hand, and she felt a little unreasonable and angry.

What else could she complain about?He said that this girl was too lavish to make a living, but Zhixing gave her another 20 yuan as a gift.

Sun Fang frowned, thinking about what she could give this girl as a dowry.
