Pioneer of the Rebirth Era

"Come and sit in Third Grandpa's room." Seeing Third Grandpa coming, Yang Dongxu quickly stood up and handed over the cigarette.

"I'm not going to sit down anymore. Where is your dad?"

"It should be at the pig farm. He was worried about the insulation that was done at the pig farm before it started snowing. He just said he would go check it out again. Is there anything wrong?"

"I want to ask your dad to come with me about the silver mountain gift." Third Grandpa said after taking the cigarette and lighting it.

In rural areas, it is common to go with relatives in the same village. If you have a good relationship with someone and have prestige in the village, you can call him to save face. Father Yang naturally falls into the latter category.

And young people like Yinshan naturally want to ask college students like Yang Dongxu to support themselves, but people from the older generation like Grandpa San obviously still feel that people as prestigious as Father Yang, who is not young at a young age, can do things safely.

"It's definitely okay to go there tomorrow if my dad is fine, but let's forget about driving under such heavy snow. If I accidentally slide into a ditch, I won't feel comfortable doing this happy event. If it's not far away, find a few more people.

Just bring the betrothal gift and so on." Yang Dongxu said.

"That's the truth." He looked at the falling figure behind him, Grandpa Daxue, and nodded.

"If you don't drive, you'll lose a lot of money."

"It's a disgrace to me, not to you. How old are you?" The third grandfather glanced at his son.

Yinshan shrank his head and did not dare to speak.

"We are all fellow villagers, but we don't know each other. Even if we walk there, no one will look down on us from Yangjiacun. The reason for the lack of scene is that God doesn't give face to us in the heavy snow. What can we do?"

If you feel that giving a gift is not enough to give face, then wait until the wedding day and choose a good day, drive a car and find it soon. Now that the end of the year is about to be celebrated, it is better to be safe." Yinshan looks a little bit.

Angry, Yang Dongxu opened his mouth to persuade.

"That's right, it's good to have a happy event and save face, but it's better to be safe and not get into trouble, especially at the end of the year. If you're such a big guy, you're not as knowledgeable as your nephew. I should have pushed you to go to school when you were a child.

"Having just finished speaking, the third grandfather's anger turned to his son again.

"Third Grandpa, what are you still missing? I have a lot of stuff at home, can I help you make up for it?" Seeing Yinshan shrinking his head and not speaking, Yang Dongxu was a little amused, but he didn't show it on his face.

"If you don't prepare everything, you won't be short of anything. The amount of three gold coins is sufficient, six pieces of good cigarettes, six boxes of good wine, and two big fish of twenty kilograms. In addition to asking your father to follow him and give him a gift, he also

I need to pick a big pig from your pig farm and slaughter it. My pig is too thin and doesn’t have enough oil and water. No one can pick out half a fan of pork and take care of it." said the third grandpa’s face about the betrothal gift he had prepared.

I couldn't help but feel a little proud.

Nowadays, wedding gifts in rural areas, let alone three pieces of gold, are regarded as a big deal if you can have boxes and boxes of cigarettes and alcohol. Twenty pounds of pork is considered a big deal, and half a fan of pork is not necessarily a gift even in the city.

So generous.

"This gift is generous." Yang Dongxu raised his thumb and praised: "Don't say that you can't drive there because of the snow. Even if you go naked, they still have to entertain you with good wine and food."

"That's necessary." Yinshan raised his neck and felt that with a family like his own, it would be a blessing to marry the other person. It's natural for the other person to be beautiful. How could he be worthy of her if she's not beautiful?

"You must be tall." The third grandfather angrily slapped his son on the back of the head again: "How about you go naked tomorrow?"

After teaching his son a lesson, the third grandfather said to Yang Dongxu: "You get busy first. I'll go to the pig farm to find your dad to pick pigs. It's really not the right time to snow this time. It can just fall two days later."

Obviously, no one would think that he, Old Yang, was in trouble even if he walked there, but he couldn't drive a car there to show off. The third grandfather was indeed a little disappointed. After all, how can there be too much of something like face and money?

"I don't know yet, who is your wife from?" Yang Dongxu asked Yinshan after seeing the third grandfather leaving.

"From Laozhou Village."

"That's really far away. If there are too many people tomorrow and there aren't enough people, just give me a shout."

"That's for sure." Yinshan nodded, said a few more words before wrapping up his coat and leaving.

The next day Yang Dongxu did not follow him to give the gift.

The snow on the road was so thick that I couldn't tell where it was from the trenches and the road. The car definitely couldn't be driven, but the car could be pulled. A few male laborers of Yang's father's generation were pulling a car with high piles of gifts.

It's such a spectacular scene that no one can take it lightly.

"If you get married in the future, you must choose a day without snow, otherwise it will be too troublesome to drive the car." Watching Father Yang and others leaving the village, Mother Yang and other women who were watching the excitement turned around and came back.

This sentence is not only said by Yang's mother, many people also think so. Although the Yinshan family's betrothal gift is sufficient and not shameful, it still feels like something is missing without driving.

"I'm still young, and it's still early to get married." Yang Dongxu didn't expect that his mother would think so early, and now she would start giving him wedding gifts.

"You're already 20, why are you so young? If you hadn't gone to school and gone on a blind date this year, Daliang's marriage has already been arranged. He's two years younger than you."

"It's still early for me, it's still early." Yang Dongxu quickly changed the subject: "What should I do to prepare for my sister's marriage?"

As the saying goes, dead Taoist friends will not die on the channel. He has helped his elder sister so much, and now it is time for the two of them to block his arrows.

"Your father and I haven't thought about this yet. The people in Leehom are nice, but why are they from Sichuan? It would be great if they were near us." Mother Yang also had a headache when she thought about her eldest daughter's marriage. The distance was too far for many things.

It's not even convenient to do.

"Why don't you let my brother-in-law call and ask his parents what they want? If they want to do it, according to the custom here, the daughter will not hold a banquet until she returns to her parents' house three days after she gets married. Anyway, they are all held separately.

It won’t affect anything. If it’s inconvenient for people from both sides to go back and forth by then, I’ll contact the airline to charter a plane.”

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Although Yang Dongxu usually doesn't talk much about the scene, he can eat in high-end Western restaurants and have skewers at roadside stalls. But it's okay to be high-profile for his sister's once-in-a-lifetime event.

"Why don't you charter a plane and not charter a rocket to fly to the sky? You only have money for a few years and you spend it like this?" Yang's mother glared at her son.

Although she has gradually accepted the fact that her son has made a lot of money doing business outside while going to school in the past few years, she doesn't know exactly how much money it is, she just knows that her son is rich.

Therefore, for someone like Yang’s mother who has only taken trains, chartering a plane costs a lot of money. The cost of chartering a plane is simply an astronomical figure.

"No, no. If they have a banquet then, let's go there in advance and find a hotel to stay at the head office, right?" Yang Dongxu said with a wry smile.

Although chartering a plane costs a lot of money, it’s really not a big deal for him. But he didn’t mention the price, and his mother didn’t agree after thinking about it. It would be strange if Yang’s mother agreed after asking about the price, so this pretense hasn’t happened yet.

It died young at the beginning.

"I'll let Leehom call me later and ask. Now that everything has been decided, let's choose the wedding date as soon as possible." In the past two days, she could see that her daughter was stubborn about right and wrong.

This person is not married anymore.

In this case, the happy event should be done as soon as possible. She was a little unhappy about marrying out of town. If she couldn't control the two children and one of them got pregnant before marriage, her face would be really lost.

. So now that I have recognized this son-in-law, it would be safer to get things done as soon as possible.

"At that time, my brother-in-law and I talked about it, if we can arrange things at the beginning of the year, there are a lot of good days at the beginning of the year anyway. After visiting relatives, there is basically nothing to do, and the people who go out have not left yet, so what should I do?

It’s also lively when there’s a happy event.”

"The beginning of the year is good." Yang Ma nodded: "But you and Leehom should discuss this carefully, so as not to make the other party think that our family is rushing to marry off our daughter."

"They can marry such a good daughter-in-law as my sister, but they haven't had enough time to have fun, so how can they have so many messy thoughts?" Yang Dongxu said with a smile.

He knew his sister's parents-in-law well. He had been a bit shady in his previous life and went to look for a job at his sister's place. Her parents-in-law entertained her with good food and drinks for several months without saying a bad word.

He has nothing to say about his sister, but something similar to the Yang family is that Liu Leehom's grandparents are basically the same as his grandparents before the Yang family became rich, and they favored their youngest son even to the ankles.

However, Liu Leehom's parents were decisive, and in recent years it has been popular to work outside the home. They simply gave up the land at home, and the whole family went out to find a job together. They pampered their sister in every way, but they never indulged their son.

The family lived happily.

As the Spring Festival is getting closer, the countryside has become more and more lively. People are killing pigs and sheep and giving New Year's gifts. Basically, the sound of firecrackers in the village has not been heard. After all, the boys in the village go to other villages to give gifts to their elders.

The Yue family is giving New Year's gifts, and there are many girls in Yangjiacun. Naturally, they have arranged for their uncles to come to Yangjiacun to give New Year's gifts. In addition, Yangjiacun is a market, so it is bustling every day.

In the early morning, there were several jars of clean pickled vegetables placed in the yard of the Yang family. Liu Leehom was busy in the kitchen with an apron, and Yang's mother and elder sister Hongying helped.

In rural areas, pickled vegetables are not missing even in later generations when they eat vegetables casually in winter. However, due to regional differences, pickled vegetables are different in different places.

For example, Chengwang City is located in the north of the Huaihe River Basin. The pickles that Yang Dongxu has eaten since childhood are basically pimples, salted garlic cloves, salted duck eggs, soy beans, etc. As for pickles, they are only eaten after the nationwide circulation of goods after 2000.

.

But with a brother-in-law from Sichuan, a mother who is also interested in pickles, and old man Xuan who is also good at cooking and eating, there will naturally be more kinds of pickles and enema at home this year.

After pouring water on the lid, Yang's mother asked curiously: "Now that it's sealed, how long will it take for this to be eaten?"

"The pickling time will be longer, more than 20 days, because it is winter and it may take a little longer, so you have to wait a few more days. You can eat pickled beans and the like in seven days, and the radish sticks can be eaten tomorrow if you make them tonight, but if you want

If it tastes good enough, you can marinate it for a few more days to make it chewier." Liu Leehom said while helping to move the jar with vegetables into the house.

"So long." Yang's mother was a little disappointed when she heard it would take so long. This was not because she was greedy, but mainly because it was her first time doing it. She couldn't wait to see how her results were.

"Hey, my brother-in-law has bought butter and all the spices. How do you stir-fry them?" With a brother-in-law who knows how to pickle vegetables, Sichuan hot pot is naturally indispensable.

Although every Sichuanese eats hot pot, not every Sichuanese knows how to cook hot pot. But with a brother-in-law who has learned cooking skills in his hometown for several years, the basic operation of hot pot is naturally not a problem.
