The Era of Hard Work

The wedding was held in our own yard. At noon after the routine ceremony, it was the most important wedding banquet during the wedding period. The banquet was upgraded from eight plates and six large bowls to ten plates and eight large bowls. It was a test The cooking level of the master.

Not only to make it delicious, but also to make it fast!

Relatives and friends of Lu Chun and Lu Jianguo will come to sit down.

Lu Dong didn't need to rest in a short period of time. He knew many people, so he had to welcome the guests and arrange them to sit at each table.

Lu Chun has a wide range of contacts, especially with many comrades in arms. The comrades in arms and old friends in the Quannan area alone played six tables.

There are more than 20 large tables in total at noon today, and the neighbors in the north and south and across the street all borrowed the seats.

Therefore, marriage in rural areas is not a matter of the family, but a matter of the streets.

Everyone has kids, and there comes a time when you need a little help from your neighbors.

"Ju Zhang, Team Zhang, Lu Suo, Brother Wang..." Lu Dong came up to shake hands with them, and led them into the main room, "Please come inside, please come inside."

When people entered the hall, Lu Jianguo and Lu Zhenlin were in charge of receiving them.

After a short meeting, Qian Rui drove Du Xiaobing, Qiao Weiguo and Song Na to the meeting.

Leading people in, Song Na walked beside Lu Dong, looking at his slightly red eyes: "Didn't you sleep all night?"

"There are many things." Lu Dong patted her arm lightly: "It's okay, I can stand it."

There are too many people here, it is not a place to talk, Song Na followed into the West Room.

Seventh Aunt was carrying the water bottle to fill the water. When she bumped into Hu Chunlan, she said, "Sister-in-law, did you see that Xiao Song is here?"

Hu Chunlan asked with concern, "Where is it?"

Seventh Aunt was working at the University City store, and she often ran into Song Na and said, "I'm going to Westinghouse."

Hu Chunlan took the water bottle from Aunt Seven: "I'll go to Westinghouse to fill the water."

Seventh Aunt didn't say much, and gave the thermos bottle.

As soon as Hu Chunlan entered the west room, several people in the room stood up to say hello, calling her aunt one after another.

"Xiaobing, Weiguo, Xiaosong, sit down!" Hu Chunlan went to the university town last year to help Lu Dong sell daily necessities, and she was quite familiar with everyone including Qian Rui.

Song Na hurried over to pick up the thermos bottle in Hu Chunlan's hand: "Auntie, we can pour it ourselves."

Hu Chunlan said with a smile: "Everyone comes to the door as customers, how can I ask you to do it."

Compared with last year's impression, I feel that Song Na has changed a lot. Last year, she was taller, thinner and darker.

, this look, not only is the person whiter, but the mushroom head is white shirt, white coat, jeans, and the girl will look beautiful after a while.

I have heard Song Na mentioned by Lao Qi's family a lot, and I saw it with my own eyes last year, and I know that she is a good child who is self-reliant and self-reliant.

After chatting next to several people, Hu Chunlan happily left Westinghouse.

Du Xiaobing asked in a low voice: "Song Na, are you nervous? Didn't you sell things together all day last year?"

Song Na lowered her voice: "Can it be the same then as now?"

Du Xiaobing said: "I saw it, my aunt is very happy to see you."

Hearing this, Song Na breathed a sigh of relief: "Just be happy, just be happy."

Near the gate, Lu Dong welcomed Lu Chun's comrades in arms one after another. Some of them couldn't find their way, so they simply gave their mobile phones to Li Lin, Lu Tao and others, and asked them to lead the way to the south on motorcycles.

Nail comes out of the door with a bag of candy.

Lu Dong glanced at him, and shook the candy with his nails: "I just asked for it from my new wife."

"I remember you don't like sweets." Lu Dong asked,

Nail moved a horse and sat next to Lu Dong, watching the people coming and going and watching the big show: "Sister Lan Lan said, I can ask her for a few more bags of candy, and when she is on vacation again, take me to the county town to eat hamburgers."

Lu Dong asked, "Does she have the money to take you there?"

Nail scratched his head: "It seems there is." He said suddenly: "Brother Dong, I found a good way to make money."

Lu Dong was surprised: "What can I do?"

Nail pointed to the wedding platform in the yard: "The eldest brother and the new wife stood there, the second grandfather said to thank the old uncle, the two elder brothers bowed, and the old uncle paid twenty yuan to put it on it. Didn't you see? The elder brother and the new wife earned twenty after bowing, and several hundred in that moment, is there anything easier than this?"

Lu Dong couldn't help laughing: "You also find a wife, so you can earn money earlier."

There was a familiar semi-old Santana in front of him, and Lu Dong stopped worrying about the nails, and went to shake hands with Director Zhao who got out of the car.

Officer Zhao said in a low voice: "It's not good for the leader to come directly, let me come to congratulate on his behalf."

"Understood." Lu Dong led Director Zhao into the door: "Brother Zhao, please come inside."

As noon approached, there was a big feast, and Lu Dong ran to the Westinghouse to have some food in a hurry.

"Eat slowly." Song Na generously brought food to Lu Dong: "Don't choke..."

Lu Dong said: "I can't wait, the newcomers will have to toast later, and I, the younger brother, will be in charge of serving the wine."

For the people in the main family, getting married is not only a happy event, but also a matter of hardship and suffering.

Especially the bride and groom.

Song Na quickly came over with a grilled chicken leg and put it on Lu Dong's plate: "Eat more."

He ate more than half of the chicken leg, and just after drinking half a cup of tea, Lu Jianguo came over and called Lu Dong, and asked him to accompany the new couple to the table to toast.

As far as the wedding day is concerned, it is somewhat easier for men, but relatively troublesome for women.

Fang Yan changed into a red cheongsam, reapplied her makeup, and toasted with Lu Chun from the main room.

Lu Dong carried the sandalwood tray that had been kept by the second grandfather's house, and followed behind with a silver wine jug.

In the past, when the rules were high, the groom had to be toasted personally, and a family with few relatives and friends had to set up seven or eight tables. No matter how good the drinking capacity was, he couldn't stand it.

The rules in Lujia Village have been simplified a lot, and the toasts are all respected at the table.

When it came to the woman's relatives, Lu Chun served a cup to each elder, and Fang Yan served a cup to the man's elders.

On the big day, the bride and groom must be forced to lie down. That is not a custom, it is a vulgar custom.

Even if they were sitting next to the table to toast, Lu Chun couldn't hold back after drinking. Lu Dong hurriedly asked Li Lin to bring over the brewed tea, so that he could rest for a while while drinking a cup of tea.

Lu Jianren came over at this time and was going to drive in the afternoon. Lu Zhenlin repeatedly told him that he didn't dare to drink even if the alcohol bug crawled up his throat.

"Seventh Uncle." Lu Chun greeted.

Lu Jianren ignored Lu Chun and said to Fang Yan, "New sister-in-law, give me some candy."

Lu Chun couldn't laugh or cry, this generation is chaotic.

Fang Yan had no choice but to say, "Uncle Qi, there is no sugar in this meeting."

Lu Jianren said: "After dinner, I will ask you again when the bridal chamber is in trouble."

Fang Yan was even more helpless: "Uncle Qi, you are an elder..."

Lu Jianren said again: "On the first day of the wedding, no matter how big or small we are, only the third uncle came, and you are also the new sister-in-law."

After Lu Jianren left, Fang Yan asked, "Uncle Seven..."

Lu Chun said, "On our side, Seventh Uncle is making a lot of noise." He looked at Lu Dong, "Dongzi, I have a task for you. After dinner tonight, ask Seventh Uncle to find a place to drink tea and chat."

Lu Dong thought for a while, Qi Shu is considered an elder, so it's really inappropriate to have a junior's bridal chamber: "Okay, I just happened to flirt with him."

After Lu Chun finished drinking a cup of tea, the toast continued.

After a round of toasting, some people began to leave the table, and the first to leave were basically people from public units.

Lu Chun and Fang Yan stood in front of the gate to see off people. Lu Dong went to the temporary kitchen erected in Wushan, asked Sun Qinghai for a bowl of egg soup, and gnawed on a steamed bun.

From early morning to here, I was basically unable to stand, and the little food I ate couldn't stand it.

Not only Lu Dong, but also Lu Jianguo, Li Min, and Hu Chunlan were all very tired.

If marriage is likened to a battle, the main family and immediate family members are the frontline fighting forces.

Fortunately, Lu Dong basically has nothing to do except to see off his natal family in the afternoon.

By two o'clock in the afternoon, the big banquets were basically dispersed, and the aunts and aunts were usually responsible for removing the plates and bowls, so no one else had to worry about it.

"Everyone has withdrawn?" Lu Dong came to the gate and asked Aunt Seven.

"No." Seventh Aunt pointed to the neighbor's house in the north: "Your Uncle Jiansong took one from the Ma's house and is still drinking..."

Lu Dong went over to take a look. Lu Jiansong was wearing a new suit, and was pulling a familiar-looking man from Majia Village, whose name he couldn't remember, having a good drink.

There are more than 20 tables and only these two people are left.

The master's house couldn't drive people away, so Lu Dong left the courtyard and asked people to wait patiently.

After waiting for more than half an hour, there was no sign of ending there.

All the tables were evacuated, and a group of aunts and aunts who were washing dishes were waiting. Seventh Aunt simply went to find Lu Zhenlin, and Lu Zhenlin went there to say a few words, and Lu Jiansong came out quickly.

"Last year, my head was flooded, and my grandpa passed away."

Li Lin said softly to Lu Dong: "Uncle Jian Song went to help. He went to the funeral in the morning and had lunch at noon. He only had tofu soup and drank until 4:30 in the afternoon..."

Lu Dong patted him on the shoulder: "Okay, let's help pack things."

Her natal family was about to leave, and Fang Yan had nearly 30 people here. Lu Dong, Lu Jianren and others were responsible for sending them back.

Lu Dong drove a Santata, Fang Rong got in and sat in the co-pilot.

The ones who came with her were all young, and they seemed to have blocked the door when welcoming the bride.

Lu Dong saw that Fang Rong's head was getting dizzy: "Young people all go to take the bus, and the elders take the small car."

No one spoke to me.

Lu Dong tentatively asked, "Drink too much?"

Still no one spoke.

"Why don't you talk?" Lu Dong asked again.

Fang Rong stretched out her hand, "Give me five yuan."

The second monk Lu Dongzhang was puzzled: "Five yuan?"

Fang Rong said: "If you give it, I will tell you five yuan!"

Lu Dong simply stopped talking, started the car, and followed the Audi in front.

No one spoke along the way, and the car was very quiet.

Send the family down below and return to Lujia Village. It's almost five o'clock in the afternoon, and it's time to have dinner again in a blink of an eye.

Tonight is the last meal of the entire wedding, and after eating, you can make a new wife.

Lu Dong purposely sat at the same table with Uncle Qi, who was full of wine and food, and when he saw Li Lin and the other young men going to have a bridal chamber, he wanted to follow.

"Seventh Uncle." Lu Dong grabbed him, "What are you going to do?"

Lu Jianren said directly: "I'm going to ask my new sister-in-law for candy!"

Lu Dong poured him a glass: "We haven't had a drink for a long time, let's have a good drink."

Lu Jianren thought about it: "Everyone's uncle is going to make trouble with his sister-in-law, so why don't you just watch?"

Lu Dong clinked glasses with him: "I don't dare to offend my sister-in-law. The company advertises and expects my sister-in-law to help me."

With Lu Dong around, Lu Jianren knew he couldn't go, so he just sat here and drank.
