The Pioneer of the Rebirth Era

The countryside in winter is very depressed, although there are green wheat fields as far as the eye can see, occasionally there are some traditional Chinese medicine plants that do not fall leaves in winter.

But the bare trees always give people a feeling of loneliness in life. Especially in the area of ​​northern Anhui, the air in winter is dry and cold, the kind of dry and cold that the lips will crack if not protected well, and the face will suffer from frostbite if not protected well.

In this environment, people don't seem to be so active. If the weather is sunny, squatting at the base of the sunny wall and chatting with a group of people can kill the day.

However, compared to Yangjia Village, which seems to have become sluggish due to winter in the past, Yangjia Village has been extremely lively these two days. It is not a festival during the New Year. A stage was set up in the market of Yangjia Village. A circus that is relatively rare in the countryside.

This is a preparation that some towns and cities only have when they catch up with the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, or when the dragon raises its head on the second month of February.

And these two preparations are already in place, and other businessmen also follow, such as the businessmen who used rings and balloons with air guns during the summit.

Some stalls sell jade calligraphy and paintings, as well as various clothing and fabrics, not to mention snacks and fruits. So these days Yangjia Village is extremely lively, everyone's faces are filled with smiles, especially the shops and merchants on the street are smiling more happily.

The summit of Yangjiacun is on the 15th day of the first lunar month. This is a fixed time after the formation of the Yangjiacun market. It has been unshakable on this day for decades. The summits of other markets in nearby ten miles and eight townships will be staggered from this time. This is not true. A written understanding.

Therefore, according to the market conditions of previous years, there is still some time before the Chinese New Year, and the time to prepare new year’s goods is still early, and the business in the market can only increase slightly. It will take a while to start buying various goods to earn a wave at the end of the year Time will do.

And Yang Dongjie's marriage directly brought this time forward, and the business of rushing to the conference for two or three days was no less profitable than selling New Year's goods at the end of the year.

What's more important is that every year at the summit, the merchants on the street are easy to get money. Because whether it is to invite singers or the Qing circus to invite people over, they all need money.

The money was given by the merchants on the street, and occasionally the wealthy residents of Yangjia Village would also take some money if they wanted their own market to be more lively.

But this time it's different. This time, all the expenses are borne by the Yang family themselves. I don't pay a penny and get a wave of bonuses, so I'm not happy about it.

However, people who do business on the streets of Yangjiacun are particular about it. While they are happy to eat bonuses for free, they all want to go to the Yang family to collect gift money.

After all, even if they don't have this free bonus to eat, and they can get a little relationship with the Yang family, these people are willing to go to the ceremony.

However, follow the etiquette, these people did not come in a rush, but a few people came first.

Seeing that the uncle and aunt who came here did not want to accept this kind of money, after all, there have been more than 50 tables in Yangjiacun's own family, as well as other relatives and friends.

If the merchants on the street come to offer gifts, they will also charge them. This will not stop opening fifty tables. I didn’t have this budget when I counted the number of people before. I collected people’s money but didn’t care about the meal. This is something to do in the countryside. The Yang family can't afford to be ashamed of such an unethical behavior.

But these people who follow the ceremony usually bow their heads and don't look up, and many of them even had a drink with their uncle at the wine table. Besides, it would be a little embarrassing to say that it would be a bit embarrassing if someone came to the door with a smile on such a happy event.

After all, it’s not that there are no banquets at the Yang’s side, and no one is invited. If you say no, you won’t accept it. You are open, and there are a few merchants on the street who have a good relationship with Uncle Shengli. , you accept other people's, treat differently if you don't accept other people's

"Take it all." Looking at the hesitant uncle and aunt, Yang Dongxu said. They all live on the same street. Since the people who don't look up and look down have come, it's really not good if they come to congratulate them.

And these people who came to congratulate him were also sincere and sincere, and they came one day in advance. Obviously, he also considered that if he came suddenly on the day of the wedding tomorrow, he would be causing trouble for the Yang family, not to congratulate him, but to find trouble.

Congratulations, although the time is a bit tight, but with the energy of the Yang family, as long as the gift is accepted, it will be no problem to arrange a meal.

There are even a few restaurants on the street who are prepared in their hearts. If the Yang family really throws a big banquet, I will help the Yang family to support the banquet if I don’t do business in the past two days.

"There are too many people and it's hard to arrange." The aunt frowned. She was really happy that so many people came to congratulate her son for the sake of face, but it was true that there were too many people.

"Tomorrow the weather will be fine and there will be no strong wind or rain. Let these people arrange to eat in the courtyard of the old house. It is not a problem to have a few tables in the house and dozens of tables in the yard." Yang Dongxu said.

Now most of the guests are arranged to dine at the aunt's house or the neighbor's house nearby, which is also a common phenomenon in rural wedding banquets.

There are too many guests to sit at home, so we just set up a few tables in the open space at the door of the house, or at the neighbor's house. Everyone comes like this, and the guests don't make it up.

Of course, some main guests, such as those from the natal family, or elders, grandparents and uncles will definitely be arranged at the main table in the house, and everyone knows that they will not care about this.

Yang Dongjie is Yang Dongxu's cousin, so it's no problem for guests to be entertained in his yard, although it's a little far away from my aunt's house. But the reason why so many people came to congratulate my aunt's house, everyone knew whose face it was for.

Therefore, these people will only be happier if they can go to Yang Dongxu's residence to have this banquet, and they will definitely not feel that they are not welcome because they are far away.

"Then cook, these people's gifts have been collected, there is no need to think that everyone else on the street will definitely come, there are quite a few people."

"A few of the few presenters outside are from the restaurants in the market. Usually, the presents are held at ten or eleven o'clock. Now it's only nine o'clock, and these people came not long after the market opened. Obviously, if They can help when we need to arrange a banquet for the gift recipients here tomorrow. Otherwise, they wouldn’t be the first batch to come to present the gifts, and they came all at once.”

Uncle stretched his head to look outside, and it was true that the people who came now were basically the restaurant owners who usually go to restaurants for drinks when he has nothing to do.

And these people are very particular about doing things, or adults are very measured in doing things. When these people came, they went to the table where the gifts were received to pay the bills, but not far from the billing table, they were smoking and chatting with Yang Rukun, the youngest son of the grandfather's family in the same house number of the Yang family.

Apparently, they also knew that their arrival was a bit sudden. After all, although they usually drank wine with Uncle Shengli, there were many people who drank with Uncle Shengli. Friends who want to come to present.

So they didn't go directly to the account, but talked and chatted first, giving the Yang family time to discuss it. Otherwise, just stop at the billing table and tell me if the billing person will collect it directly, or ask the host to collect it?

I asked the master, if the master said no, it would be embarrassing for both parties.

Therefore, it is better to express your own meaning implicitly and let the master have time to think about it. In this way, if the host family doesn't accept their gift, then they just come to smoke and chat to watch the excitement, and no one will be embarrassed.
