rebirth of cataclysm

Hu Mingchen was also an emotional person. He had just been pushed to swallow up the business of two businesses in Jiangjiazhai. Before he got home, Hu Mingyong jumped out to give him problems again. It was strange that Hu Mingchen was so happy.

Besides, as Hu Mingchen himself said, if you can't even get a driver's license, what hope do you have? Driving on the road without learning the traffic rules is equivalent to walking on the edge of a cliff. Danger can happen anytime and anywhere.

So on this issue, Hu Mingchen will not help Hu Mingyong to open a back door through connections.

"Xiaochen... then I'll... it's really difficult to get a driver's license." Hu Mingyong said with a grimace and a frown.

"Brother, if that's the case, I suggest you give up the idea of ​​driving. It means you are not suitable for driving." Hu Mingchen said in a very unpleasant way, "This is what you are asking me for? If this is the only thing, I will

I really can’t help.”

After Hu Mingchen finished speaking, he stood up and made a gesture to leave.

"Xiaochen, wait, wait..." Hu Mingyong quickly stopped Hu Mingchen.

"What's wrong? Is there anything else?" Hu Mingchen looked at Hu Mingyong and asked.

"Then if I'm not suitable to drive, you... just give me a road, I don't want to be at home anymore. I do things at home all day long, and I don't have much money, you give me a road so that I can go out and earn some money."

Pay some money." Hu Mingyong mustered up his courage and said.

"But the question is, what can you do?" Hu Mingchen asked, spreading his hands.

"Just look at what I can do, and make arrangements based on what I can do."

Hu Mingchen really wanted to say, brother, I see you can’t do anything. What can you do, you don’t know?

"Brother, I really don't know what you can do. You have no culture and no skills... Hey, you are really making things difficult for me." Hu Mingchen said helplessly.

"I have skills. I can build walls. At home, I just follow others to build walls and build houses. I can also farm." Hu Mingyong said boldly.

Sweat almost dripped from Hu Mingchen's forehead. Building walls and farming? It's better not to talk about such skills. It's embarrassing to mention them.

However, Hu Mingyong is such a "real" person, and he does tell the truth.

"Brother, these skills of yours are not very useful when you go out, unless you are going to work on a construction site. Well, you can go back and think about it and see what you can do and what you want to do. Now that you have thought through these two issues,

Let's discuss it again, okay? It's a good thing that you want to go out and do things, but you can't be blind. If it doesn't work, you can still take the driver's license test and I'll pay for it for you." Hu Mingchen said patiently.

Hu Mingchen dismissed Hu Mingyong and returned home. Hu Jianqiang was sitting in the living room chatting with Hu Jianjun and Jiang Yucai. They were discussing the specific details of going to Zhou Yuxian's house to place incense.

Hu Mingchen came back from outside and naturally wanted to join in.

On the eighth day of the first lunar month, a group of people, led by Hu Jianqiang, went to Zhou Yuxian's home to place incense.

This time we went to place incense. More than a dozen people, including elders and juniors, including Hu Mingchen, a junior, went there. The president went to four off-road vehicles and a pickup truck, and packed the bed of the pickup truck with various items prepared according to customs.

Fill it up.

The path to Zhou Yuxian's house is still a muddy road, so a car is not suitable.

I knew that Zhou Yuxian was married to a big boss, so basically all his relatives came here. A cage of firewood and a cage of coal were burned in the yard, and five or six Eight Immortals tables were set up for eating. It felt like the same.

It's almost time to have a wedding reception.

As soon as Hu Mingchen's motorcade arrived, a large group of people rushed over. The young and old men began to laugh and comment on them curiously. Of course, the most important comment was on the cars and the dazzling array of items that were taken from the cars.

Hu Mingchen wanted to carry a pig leg, but Zhou Yuxian saw it. She quickly called her cousin to help and freed Hu Mingchen's hand.

Zhou Yuxian felt very happy that Hu Mingchen could come. If he was asked to pick up heavy things in person again, Zhou Yuxian would not stand it.

"Third Aunt, I can get whatever I can. All of us have been assigned tasks, so you have to let me get some." Hu Mingchen changed his name to Zhou Yuxiandao.

"It's okay, it's okay. If he comes to get it, give it to my cousin. Come over there and sit and drink tea. We'll eat in a while." Zhou Yuxian, who had changed into a dress, tried to stop him.

"Third aunt? What's going on? There's a junior here to put incense?"

"Do you have any rules? How can you send me to complete my job to put incense and talk about my wife?"

"Oh, this family is a bit bullying. They think that being rich is a big deal. This is simply looking down on the Zhou family. I'm afraid this Yuxian won't have a good life if she marries him."

...

Hu Mingchen's cry of "Third Aunt" was heard by Zhou Yuxian's relatives, and all kinds of negative comments came out.

Hu Mingchen heard some of those discussions, which made Hu Mingchen a little embarrassed.

Zhou Yuxian had agreed to it when he came, thinking that things had been settled on their side, but little did he know, it still caused misunderstandings and troubles.

But after all, he was the one who broke the rules, so no matter what those people said, Hu Mingchen could only pretend not to hear them.

After placing the incense gifts under the shrine in Zhou Yuxian's main hall one by one, the stewards and matchmakers from both parties began to hand over the gifts, including the hundreds of thousands of cash prepared, and they also needed to be clear about it. Anyway, after the handover, these things all belong to Zhou Yuxian

It's home.

There will be a ceremony later, but that will have to wait until after we have eaten and drank.

Looking at the large dustpans filled with everything, especially the dustpan containing money alone, attracted the attention of those relatives.

In their village, there has never been such a grand and grand marriage for a girl, with two sets of clothes, a set of three-gold jewelry, a diamond ring, two bags of rice, twelve handfuls of noodles, and four pig legs with tails.

A bag of peanuts and apples, a basket of dates, and cash of 168,000

Eight thousand eight hundred and eighty-eight, two cigarettes, eight glutinous rice cakes, eight bottles of liquor, two pairs of leather shoes, some fragrant paper candles, and an extra set of clothing for each of Zhou Yuxian's parents... Not only is there a lot of stuff

, the key is that they are all top quality, and all items are tied with red paper.

After counting the items and drinking two cups of tea, the steward at the woman's house arranged for dinner.

This meal tour is not just about relatives like Hu Mingchen and others who come to place incense, but the woman's family will arrange for relatives of equal rank to sit and accompany her, not only to accompany her to eat, but also to accompany her to drink.

This is also a custom, which is equivalent to trying to please the man's family for Zhou Yuxian. If he cannot accompany him to eat and drink, it means he is unhappy. If Zhou Yuxian marries him, he may suffer hardship and be looked down upon by others.

Of course, this also has another meaning, that is, once everything is done today, we are relatives. Since we are relatives, we must have an occasion and opportunity to get to know each other and deepen our relationship and understanding, and we have a meal together.

A meal and a drink are the best way to go.

But there is a trouble here, and that is Hu Mingchen.

Because Hu Mingchen is a junior, so since there must be equality, there must be a junior to accompany and greet Hu Mingchen. It is impossible to arrange for someone who is one generation older or even two generations older to come.

The reason why juniors are not arranged to arrange incense is also related to this. Because the newlyweds who get married are usually young, and some who get married early are only around 18, 9 or 20 years old. The juniors may only be a few years old. Such a doll is

Can't drink alcohol.

Rural banquets use benches. As soon as Hu Mingchen sat down, before he picked up his chopsticks, a half-teen-year-old boy sat down with him.

"Kid, haven't you eaten too? Come here, the chopsticks are here, pick them up and let's eat together." Hu Mingchen was stunned for a moment, and seeing that he was not old, he took care of him and greeted him.

"What kid? You are a junior, and so am I. I am your brother. Do you want to drink rice wine or rice wine? Let's have a bowl first." The little boy gave Hu Mingchen a stunned look and said in a tone like an adult.

"What? Have a bowl first? You are so young, can you drink wine?" Hu Mingchen said in surprise, dumbfounded.

"Hahaha, Xiaochen, if you don't want to drink yet, it seems you can't escape. People are so young and they do everything by the bowl. If you can't handle it, we will be shameless." The second person from Sanjiazhai said

The eldest father, Hu Jianxin, sat next to Hu Mingchen and immediately teased Hu Mingchen with a smile.

"Second eldest dad, it's not that I can't drink him, it's because he's too young and I'm afraid he'll get hurt. Even if I beat him, it would be disgraceful. People will say that I bully the younger ones." Hu Mingchen said.

"You two are from the same generation. There is no question of whether the older one bullies the younger one. Don't look at his young age. When it comes to drinking, you really may not be able to beat him. This kid is only three years old.

Let’s start drinking.” An uncle from Zhou Yuxian’s house said with a smile.

Hu Mingchen was laughed at and teased by the people at the table, riding a tiger with difficulty. But at this moment, the little kid had poured the yellowed corn wine into the bowls in front of them.

In rural areas, no matter whether it is a wedding or a funeral, bottled wine is not used. On the one hand, it costs more, and on the other hand, they don't like it. Instead, they think the grain wine they brew is delicious.

This kind of grain wine brewed by local methods is not very high in temperature, just over 30 degrees. It tastes very good, but it is also very serious when drunk. Once drunk, you will get very high.

"Come on, relative, let's meet one of them and let's talk about it. Do you dare to do it?" After the little boy got the wine, he took the lead in holding the bowl and pointed it at Hu Mingchen.

At this time, no matter whether Hu Mingchen could drink or not, he could only pick up the wine bowl, otherwise, he would be embarrassed.

Hu Mingchen felt that even if this little guy started drinking at the age of three, his drinking capacity would not be that great, and it was impossible for him to be able to control him.

Unexpectedly, after he pushed the bowl towards Hu Mingchen and touched it, he raised his head and swallowed the one or two taels of corn wine.

Hu Mingchen rolled his eyes and drank all the wine in the bowl.

"Hurry up and order some food. Eat some food. Don't drink this wine in a hurry. You have to take your time, otherwise you will get drunk easily." Hu Jianxin quickly suggested to Hu Mingchen.

As soon as everyone moved the dishes and chopsticks, the atmosphere became lively, and several tables were full of the sounds of eating food and clinking bowls and drinking.

The little guy sitting next to Hu Mingchen had a really good drinking capacity. He had three bowls with Hu Mingchen without any effort. He was fine, but Hu Mingchen was a little dizzy.
