The Era of Hard Work

There was a whizzing cold wind in the early hours of the morning, and he was about to go to greet the bride. Lu Dong put on a sweater under his jacket, and together with Lu Jianren, he took a bunch of red envelopes from his aunt Li Min.

Seventh Uncle rarely wears a new suit. He is already handsome, and now he can afford to look extraordinary, but he can't watch him walk, the way he walks with dragging the soles of his shoes, no matter how good the clothes are, he looks indecent.

The red packets were put into the purse that Lu Jianren was carrying, and Lu Dong stuffed some small red packets into his pockets, they must be used when calling the door.

After leaving the main room, Lu Zhenlin greeted him and said, "Old Qi, you are used to leading a team to welcome relatives, so don't make any mistakes."

Lu Jianren drooped his shoulders and said, "Third Uncle, don't worry, how many of these little daughter-in-laws in our village were brought in by me?"

The second grandpa came over at this time, handed a large pomegranate to Lu Dong, and said: "You press the sedan chair, and when Chunzi gets on the car, give him the pomegranate, and ask him to hold it all the way. on."

Lu Dong understood: "Second Grandpa, I got it!"

In addition to being festive, the other main content of a wedding is the birth of various meanings.

Lu Zhenlin said: "Dongzi, let's see if your brother is well, it's not too late for this kind of thing!"

Lu Dong glanced at his watch, just as he arrived at the door of the east house, Lu Chun came out of the house wearing a brand new suit and pulling big slippers.

"Okay!" Lu Chun handed the box in his hand to Lu Dong.

The second grandfather nodded slightly, and shouted loudly: "Thank you parents for raising you!"

Lu Chun came to the front of Xitai, knelt down in front of Lu Jianguo and Li Min, and really kowtowed.

Without parents, where would we be today?

The second grandpa shouted again: "The drums are playing!"

The blowing, playing and singing began to play, and Lu Chunjin pulled on the big slippers to go out. Lu Dong opened the rear door for him, and Lu Chun got into the new Audi A6 parked at the door.

This is a new car bought by Qian Rui and borrowed by Lu Dong.

Lu Jianguo and Li Min followed, each holding a new leather shoe, and putting it on for his son.

It means that the son will embark on a new path from now on.

Aunt Hu Chunlan brought over an unripe apple and handed it to Lu Chun, who then took a big bite.

Hu Chunlan asked, "Is it alive?"

Lu Chun had been reminded beforehand, and said loudly, "Sheng!"

Lu Dong went around to the other side of the car and also got into the back seat.

Firecrackers and salutes were fired outside at the same time. The lantern-bearers led the way, followed by the drum band, and then the lead car commanded by Lu Jianren, driving slowly towards the south of the village.

When welcoming relatives here, it is important not to turn back. Entering the village and leaving the village cannot be the same way. When going, take a detour in the south, and come directly from the north when returning.

Beihe is more particular than Qingzhao. The Fang family did not embarrass Lu Chun before the marriage, and the gift of ten out of ten was just to make Lu Chun go back and forth.

Therefore, going here to welcome relatives is also a face-saving gesture.

There are six cars in the wedding team, five Santanas, one Audi A6, followed by a Dajinbei and a minibus.

The countryside these days is definitely considered luxurious.

The Dajinbei is equipped with a drum band and two lantern performers, and the CMB will pick up her natal family.

There are many cars, the road is far away, and it is easy to get sleepy in the early morning. Not only is each car equipped with a mobile phone, so that it is convenient to keep in touch with each other, and the driver is also equipped with a chat companion.

When I went to greet the relatives in the early morning, some drivers really got sleepy and drove the car into the ditch.

After leaving the village, everyone got into the car, and the eight cars started to speed up with their double flashing lights on.

Lu Dong handed the pomegranate to Lu Chun: "Brother, hold it well."

Lu Chun embraced the big pomegranate.

The driver of the Audi was Bei Xiangrong: "Oh, more children bring more blessings..." He looked at Santana in front of him: "Dongzi, is Uncle Seven reliable to lead the way?"

Turning ahead, in Santana's car, a small string of firecrackers was thrown out of the car, crackling non-stop.

Lu Dong was not worried: "Brother Bei, you can just follow along, Uncle Qi is used to this job."

Bei Xiangrong thought of all the past: "I'm worried that Uncle Qi will lead us into the bandits' den."

Every intersection or bridge, small firecrackers would be thrown from the car in front of them. There were few cars on the road these days, and they were all driving with double flashing lights. There was no wedding car left behind, and the journey to Beihe went smoothly.

The customs of the two sides are quite different, the door of Fang's house is open, so there is no need to go up and call.

But the door of Fang Yan's room was closed, and a group of little girls, including her sister Fang Rong, were waiting for red envelopes.

Lu Chun was invited to sit in the main room, and the rest of the Lu Family Village, headed by Lu Dong and Lu Jianren, had to rush to open the door.

"It doesn't matter how big or small the door is." Lu Jianren rolled up his sleeves and went to the stage in person. Seeing that the door was closed, he came to the window with iron bars on one side, and shouted inside: "New sister-in-law, open the door, hurry up!"

Bei Xiangrong couldn't help laughing.

Fang Rong came over: "If you want to come in, get the red envelope first."

Lu Dong answered: "Okay, I have red envelopes, all of them are with me!"

"I remember you, Lu Dong!" Fang Rong still remembered Lu Dong's refusal to drink with her last time, so she cheered up and prepared to fight with Lu Dong for 300 rounds: "If you don't get enough red envelopes, don't even think about coming in!"

Lu Dong said bluntly, "You tell me the number."

Fang Rong stretched out her right thumb and little finger, and gestured at Lu Dong.

Lu Dong was very happy, took out six red envelopes, and handed them in through the window grille.

Fang Rong was happy, and then quickly opened one, and there was a red note inside, and when she opened it again, it was still a red note.

Open six in a row, all red notes.

"Your red envelope is really big!" Fang Rong gestured to the red note in her hand: "Six red envelopes cost six yuan, Lu Dong, you are so kind to give it!"

Lu Dong asked back, "Don't you want six?"

Fang Rong turned around and left.

"Don't go!" Lu Dong said, "I've given you the red envelope, but you haven't opened the door yet!"

Fang Rong turned her head: "The boat of friendship capsized, there is nothing to talk about!"

Lu Jianren counted out five red envelopes and handed them to the window: "Xin sister, can we talk about five yuan more?"

A group of little girls in Fang Yan's house, how can they compare with Lu Dong and Lu Jianren's old fritters who can speak vernacular, they are not opponents at all, so they can only insist on not opening the door.

After a while, Fang Rong came over with a wine bottle in one hand and a big cup in the other, and nodded at Lu Dong's chin: "Come here, let's talk about five yuan."

Lu Dong leaned against the window: "Sister, last time you went, I took good care of you. We should thank you, don't you? Open the door, and you can eat and drink when you come to me."

"Open the door? It's not difficult." Fang Rong took a wine bottle and poured a small glass of wine into the big glass, then brought vinegar and soy sauce, poured some in separately, deliberately stirred them evenly with chopsticks, and started chatting with five yuan: "Lu Dong, Don't say I don't take care of you, just get bored, and I'll open the door for you!"

Lu Dong glanced at the cup: "Sister, you're embarrassing the wrong person, you should ask my brother to drink it!"

Fang Rong knocked on the cup: "Today is your brother and my sister getting married, let's drum to drum, gong to gong!"

Li Lin booed from behind: "Brother Dong, the little girl has taken a fancy to you!"

There was laughter all around.

"Okay!" Lu Dong nodded, pointing to the cup: "Give it to me."

He looked at it, the cup was too big to pass through the bars.

Fang Rong also discovered this.

Lu Dong said, "Well, you open the door and pass me the cup."

Fang Rong didn't think much, and said, "Okay."

Both of them were at the door, and Lu Dong winked at Li Lin, Lu Tao and others as he walked.

Lv Jianren said in a low voice: "You will listen to me later, I will shout and use all my strength!"

When he came to the door, the door was quickly opened from the inside with a gap just wide enough for the cup to come out, from which Lu Dong could see four or five little girls including Fang Rong.

When he took the cup, he landed on the crack of the door.

"Come on!" Lu Jianren gave an order, and four or five young men pushed forward with all their strength.

Lu Dong was at the front, without any effort at all, he opened the door with his strong body and rushed in.

After entering the door, he opened his arms and quickly resisted the force coming from behind. After all, it was a great happy event, and it would be bad if someone knocked over.

Fang Rong was so angry: "Lu Dong, your words don't count!"

Lu Dong looked helpless: "I don't want to either, they push me behind."

Fang Rong looked back, she didn't know anyone who came over except Lu Dong.

Lu Dong casually put down the teacup, and asked someone to call Lu Chun to come quickly, and at the same time said: "Hurry up, big guy, find shoes for my sister-in-law!"

Lu Chun also entered the door, busy looking for shoes.

It's too easy to hide a shoe in such a big room, and there are no moles here, so it's really hard to find.

Lu Dong found Fang Rong and took out two big red envelopes: "Let's discuss, one red envelope for a pair of shoes."

The big red envelope for calling the door must be given. The door was not opened just now, and it was given to the meat bun to beat the dog.

Fang Rong reached out to take it, but Lu Dong withdrew it: "Where is it?"

"Under the bedside cabinet." Fang Rong said.

Lu Dong reminded that when Li Lin found out the shoes, he handed the red envelope to Fang Rong: "We will pay off all our debts!"

Fang Rong quietly opened it to look, and there were one hundred pieces inside.

Lu Dong sent out red envelopes, while Lu Chun and Fang Yan were ready to go out.

As soon as I walked to the door of the room, an aunt on Fangyan Street suddenly moved a big chair over, blocked the door, and said, "Swallow, come and sit down. We have a rule here. When a man comes to greet his relatives, he has to kowtow to the woman." !"

When the two sides discussed, no one ever mentioned this.

Husband and wife get along as equals, and many men can't accept it.

Fang Yan didn't wait for Lu Chun to speak, and said first: "Auntie, don't be tired, go and rest quickly."

Mother Fang squeezed over at this time, grabbed the chair and moved away: "Don't waste time!"

She glanced at the sister-in-law on the street. Lu Chun came to the door for the first time and encouraged her to ask for more gifts.

This is because her family asked for a lot of betrothal gifts, and the daughter did not get married well, so I am afraid that Yanzi will have a good life after marriage?

The unpleasant episode was easily resolved by the woman. Everyone went out to get in the car, and Fang's mother sent it to the side of the car. When the firecrackers fell and the drums played, the team slowly started to move forward.

Father Fang stood silently under the light.

Mother Fang kept walking with the wedding car, wiping tears as she walked.

My own daughter is about to leave home to become someone else's daughter-in-law, and being a mother is complicated.

Fang Yan was sitting in the car, looking back all the time, also crying.

Finally, the convoy left the village, and Lu Chun comforted Fang Yan.

Lu Dong found the big pomegranate on the car, turned around from the passenger seat, and handed it to Fang Yan: "Sister-in-law, you have to hold it all the way, and you can only let go when you get off the car."

Fang Yan nodded slightly.

Lu Dong turned around and called Uncle Qi, and the motorcade roared back to Lu's Village.
