New Year's Day is a good day. There is also a family in Meizijing who plans to marry a wife on New Year's Day. Another family plans to marry a girl on New Year's Day and has notified the neighbors in advance.
Grandma Zhou’s family also chose New Year’s Day to pick up their daughter-in-law, because their family did not set up a banquet, so only a few principals of the Zhou family knew about it.
New Year's Day is a national holiday, and the school construction site is also on holiday. Brother Zhou's wedding will not delay much work.
The Zhou family's confidentiality work is so tight that outsiders don't know about it. Brother Zhou made an appointment a week in advance with some of his best buddies in the village to come to his house to help kill pigs after work on the evening of the 31st.
The Cheng family brothers, Liu Lu, Zhang Poluo, and Chen Dalian didn’t ask why Brother Zhou’s family was killing pigs. They finished work in the evening of the 31st, went home, changed their clothes, and each took their wives to Brother Zhou’s house.
.
Yueqing also went to the Zhou family to help kill pigs. Village chief Zhou, Zhou Papi and his wife were also present.
Everyone first helped to kill a pig and treated it roughly. First, the pig's head was cut off, cleaned up and stewed in a pressure cooker, and then the pig's waste was carefully treated.
A group of people took care of the small chores such as pig draining, the pig head meat was stewed until it was cooked, and they sat down to have dinner.
After three rounds of drinking, Brother Zhou told his good buddies that he had divorced Liu Tong a long time ago and would marry a new wife tomorrow. He asked his buddies to help support the show tomorrow.
Chen Dalian, Liu Lu, Cheng Youde, Cheng Youliang, and Zhang Poluo were so surprised that they almost threw away their chopsticks. The divorce between Zhou Xialong and Liu Tong was nothing, after all, Liu Tong had not returned to the village for several months, and they also guessed that something was wrong.
But, what the hell is Zhou Xialong doing with his new wife?
Zhou Xialong quietly divorced, and also quietly found a second love?
The brothers were so shocked that they couldn't even close their mouths.
The men were surprised, and Sister-in-law Liu, Sister-in-law Zhao and others were also shocked, and their brains couldn't be turned around for a while.
At this time, Village Chief Zhou came on stage and slowly told Zhou Xialong about his divorce and all the tangled issues of secretly dating after the divorce.
Of course, his old man had a good relationship with the Zhou family and did not tell anyone about Xiao Lele's involvement. He only said that Principal Yin came to Xiao Lele to discuss the auditorium that day, and Xiao Lele went to the junior high school to visit.
At the construction site, have dinner at Principal Yin’s house.
Didn't Zhou Xialong also go to the old principal's house at noon that day? Old principal Yin asked a handyman from the school, Mrs. Meng, to help with cooking. Then, old principal Yin found out that one of Zhou Xialong and Mrs. Meng was divorced and the other was widowed, so he brought them together on a whim.
After a while, the two of them fell in love.
After both parties got to know each other, they both felt that the other person was a real person and decided to live together.
In order to prevent the villagers from knowing that Zhou Xialong was divorced, they all came to work as matchmakers and disturbed people, so they made a quick decision and decided to get married on New Year's Day.
After understanding the ins and outs, Liu Chengyoude and others had only one word for Brother Zhou - surrender.
Zhou Xialong divorced quietly and found a second love quietly.
If he hadn't wanted to ask his buddies to help pick him up from the sex scene, Zhou Xialong would probably have picked up his wife back without saying a word, and maybe he would have started living together like Yueqing and Zhou Qiufeng again, and they would still have been kept in the dark.

An honest person's work is like a hoe and a trap.
This guy doesn’t talk much on weekdays, but he gets things done quickly.
It took some effort for Cheng Youde, Zhang Poluo and the other buddies to fully digest the news, and then you and I "crippled" them sentence by sentence. After the crusade was over, let's drink!
That meal made people feel ups and downs.
Naturally, the buddies were concerned about Brother Zhou's affairs. After returning home, they had a good sleep and got up at around four o'clock the next day to prepare to pick up the bride. The real thing was to wake up at midnight.
The brothers all dressed themselves up like a dog, and their hair was combed so shiny that they couldn't climb up even with a car, let alone a cane.
The brothers also filled up their motorcycles with gas, polished them so they could be seen, tied red cloth strips, and put happy words on the places where they could.
Everyone packed up and neatly set off at night with Brother Zhou to pick up the bride. They were going to Granny Li's house to have breakfast and then pick up the new wife.
My good friends drive a motorcycle, and Brother Zhou drives a covered electric three-wheeler, bringing wedding gifts.
In fact, their buddy's motorcycle was completely wiped clean. When they drove to the small village where Meng's wife lived, the motorcycle was covered in dirt and dust. They had to wipe it down in a place with water outside the village before entering the village.
p>
A group of pure men, following the custom, first set off a string of thousands of firecrackers at the entrance of the small village, then lined up into the village and went straight to Granny Li's house.
When they arrived, some people in the small village had just finished breakfast, and some were still eating breakfast.
People near the main road in the village heard the sound of firecrackers and ran to look around curiously. They saw a car with happy words on it going to Grandma Li's house, and they flocked to see the fun.
Brother Zhou and his buddies drove to Grandma Li's house in a hurry and lit a string of thousands of firecrackers.
The three daughters of Grandma Li's family have already packed up neatly and their clothes are all in festive colors. Since they are not getting married, Sister Meng does not need to avoid them.
Granny Li originally thought that the groom would come by himself when the wedding was held. Unexpectedly, he brought a wedding team and was even happier. He warmly greeted the young people to come and sit in the hall.
A brazier was burned in the main room.
Brother Zhou and others sat in the main room of Grandma Li's house, and people came to watch the fun.
Grandma Li distributed wedding candies to the villagers and invited people to sit in the house.
There are only so many people in the small village. The young people go out to work, and those who are left behind are the elderly and children. Those who come closer are only about ten people.
Several people in Liu Lu also prepared cigarettes and wedding candies to smoke and distribute wedding candies to those who came to watch the fun.
The villagers did not go to Granny Li's house to sit, but ate wedding candies and went back to their respective homes with the shocking news that Mrs. Meng had married another woman. They needed some time to digest the news.
The villagers didn’t come in to sit down, so Grandma Li’s house set up a meal for breakfast.
Welcoming a bride is an auspicious time. Brother Zhou and his buddies ate quickly. After they finished eating, they helped put away the dishes and chopsticks, and then helped Granny Li pack up the wedding gifts sent by the Zhou family.
The Zhou family gave ninety-eight kilograms of pork, wedding cakes and rice to the bride, and other things like clothes and shoes prepared according to customs.
Liu Lu and others helped carry the heavy items, while the light items were handled by Grandma Li’s family.

You cannot accept all the wedding gifts, usually half or two-thirds, and you must leave a portion for the groom’s family to put on the bottom of the basket.
After packing up the gifts, Mrs. Meng went back to her room to change into a new set of clothes. Granny Li and her granddaughter asked the bride-to-be to help move the dowry to the main room.
Granny Li is marrying off her daughter-in-law as if she were a girl. She does not need to buy electrical appliances and the like. She also has nine sets of new quilts, bedspreads and other accessories, as well as daily necessities such as basins and buckets that are necessary for the bride, and new clothes that are indispensable for the newlyweds.
.
Liu Lu and his brothers were dumbfounded when they saw it. Granny Li's family had not prepared a large dowry, but everything else had been prepared according to the old rules.
The dowry and the Zhou family's wedding baskets left the main room first. There were some electric tricycles and some items tied to motorcycles.
Everything was ready, and after waiting for a while, at the auspicious moment, Brother Zhou and Sister Meng offered incense to the ancestral tablet of the Li family, and then said goodbye to Granny Li.
Farewell to Granny Li, the bride is out of the virginity.
At first, Granny Li could still hold back. When the young man surnamed Zhou led Sister Meng out of the threshold, her tears flowed down.
Li Xiaoyan stopped going to Zhou's house with her mother for the time being. She had to wait until her mother returned home before following her. When she heard her grandma crying, she couldn't help but helped her cry.
Grandparents and grandson burst into tears and supported each other to see off the bride.
Sister-in-law Meng said goodbye to her mother-in-law, walked out of the door and got into the electric tricycle, and never looked back. The custom in some places said that a bride cannot look back when she gets married. If she looks back to miss her parents' family, she may not have a good life in her new home.
Granny Li shed tears and gave away only about 200 rice, so as not to miss the auspicious time for the husband's family to visit the church.
Brother Zhou and his buddies pushed the cart away at first, but when the Li family's grandparents stayed behind, they started to drive away.
Mother-in-law Li Xiaoyan watched the wedding team disappear before turning back home. Not long after she returned home, villagers came to visit, and her grandfather and grandson were busy greeting the neighbors.
Because they had to catch an auspicious time, Brother Zhou and others drove all the way back without stopping, and managed to get back to Plum Village before eleven o'clock.
The convoy returned directly to Brother Zhou’s house.
Liu Lu and others accompanied Brother Zhou to pick up the bride. Their wives had breakfast, cleaned up the house, and also went to Zhou Xialong's house to help make lunch and prepare tea.
Village Chief Zhou and Zhou Papi went to Jiudao Junior High School to pick up the three grandchildren of Mr. Yin’s family. Mr. Yin was the matchmaker. Zhou Xialong and Mrs. Meng were getting married, and of course the matchmaker couldn’t be absent.
As for Xiao Lele, the Zhou family was determined to take her out. After all, when Principal Fu introduced his cousin to Zhou Xialong, Xiao Lele said she would not interfere with the Zhou family's housework.
If you say you don't care, you will cooperate with Principal Yin to help Zhou Xialong lead the red line. It is easy to recruit villains to talk behind your back.
Principal Yin was very happy and cheerful, smiling from ear to ear.
Zhou Qiufeng and Lefu also returned to Zhou's home. As for Leshan, he would have a day off on New Year's Day and start studying normally on the 2nd.
A group of people at the Zhou family worked together to get everything ready. When the people who welcomed the bride came back, Grandma Zhou and the Zhou family immediately retreated.
Before the newlyweds worship in the church, the new daughter-in-law may easily have quarrels and conflicts when meeting with her parents-in-law’s elders. Therefore, before the newlyweds worship incense, the direct elders of the husband’s family should stay away.
Principal Yin and Mrs. Yin, accompanied by Sister-in-law Zhao and others, went to the door of Zhou's house to pick up the newcomers. Regardless of other things, they quickly let their relatives enter the main room to worship.
Principal Yin personally presided over the ceremony and lit wedding candles in front of the Zhou family's shrine, asking the newlyweds to worship heaven and earth, then worship the ancestors of the Zhou family, and then the husband and wife worship each other.
After the ceremony, Sister-in-law Liu and others send the newlyweds into the bridal chamber.
The bridal chamber is the room opposite where Brother Zhou and Liu Tong used to have their bedroom. The bed, wardrobe and other supplies are all brand new.
Sister-in-law Liu, Sister-in-law Zhao and a few others gathered around the newlyweds, laughing and joking for a while, and then went out first; Grandma Zhou and her cousins also returned to the main room above.
Brother Zhou stayed with Sister Meng for a few minutes and then went out to greet the guests. He took his new daughter-in-law to recognize everyone in the Zhou family first, and then moved things with his brothers.
When the newlyweds entered the bridal chamber, the ceremony was completed, and Mrs. Meng did not hesitate. She said hello to the elders, greeted the neighbors, and went to move the luggage.
Sister-in-law Liu and others are straightforward and simple people, without so many twists and turns. Sister-in-law Meng is also a cheerful person. Even if she just entered the Zhou family, she gets along very well with her neighbors.
The Zhou family’s lunch was very lively, with a total of six tables set up.
After a lively wedding banquet, Liu Lu and others went home in the afternoon. Most of the Zhou family also left first. Zhou Papi helped send Principal Yin and his family back to school.
As for making trouble in the wedding ceremony, of course there is no such section.
Brother Zhou is the groom's official, so of course he cannot be idle. In the afternoon, with the help of his sister and brother-in-law, he processed the pork and some gifts.
Le's father, Zhou Qiufeng, and his wife have a deep relationship and are very knowledgeable. They run away early after helping their parents with their work.
Grandma Zhou was happy that her son had married back a wife, and she slept very soundly at night.
No one was making trouble in the wedding night, and Brother Zhou and Sister Meng were naturally relaxed. They were both married for the second time, so they were a little shy. However, the procedures for the wedding night were still complete, and a crucial link was not missed.
p>
When couples have in-depth communication, they will naturally have a sense of tacit understanding and belonging.
Grandma Zhou woke up the next day and deliberately stayed in bed until the young couple got up and lit a fire in the kitchen to make breakfast.
After tidying up and entering the kitchen, I saw the way my new daughter-in-law walked when she saw him. As a person who has been there, I naturally understood that the young couple performed the Zhougong ceremony last night. They were all smiling so hard that they could not even see their teeth. They were even more beautiful than the land in the Tutu Temple.
My mother-in-law is still kind.
On the day her son divorced, Xiao Lele gave her an Arhat bed, which was a good sign. No, her son married a new wife just six months after the divorce.
According to this kind of fortune, maybe there will be another grandchild in the family next year.
Grandma Zhou was very happy. When her new daughter-in-law poured her face wash according to the rules, she happily washed her face and brushed her teeth, and gave her a big red envelope that she had prepared long ago.
The new mother-in-law has a gentle temper, and the Zhou family members are also reasonable, so there is no pressure on Sister Meng.
According to custom, you have to return home on the second day of your wedding.
After breakfast, Brother Zhou and Mrs. Meng brought a gift in return and went to Granny Li's house, had lunch, and brought the oil bottle Li Xiaoyan with them when they returned to Zhou's house.
Li Xiaoyan lived with her mother in the Zhou family and had her own separate room on the third floor of the new building next to the Zhou family.
On the 3rd, Li Xiaoyan returned to the county school. Brother Zhou and Mrs. Meng went to thank the matchmaker, Principal Yin, with a generous gift. On the 4th, they went to the county to apply for a marriage certificate. It was typical to get on the bus first and then pay for the ticket.
Before Brother Zhou remarried, the Zhou family's confidentiality work was in place. When he married his new daughter-in-law, the news could not be concealed. Starting from the 2nd, some villagers knew that Zhou Xialong and Liu Tong had divorced and remarried, and they spread the news to each other.
Spreads quickly.
Many people who were waiting to introduce a partner to Brother Zhou secretly beat their chests with regret. If they had known they would not have waited, they would have directly asked Grandma Zhou. Now the opportunity is gone.
You said, if you had taken action earlier and introduced suitable women from your relatives and friends to Zhou Xialong, wouldn't it be equivalent to being related to the Le family when the person you were related to became the wife of the Zhou family?
Because we are tied up and let great opportunities slip away from our eyes.
Many people in Meicun and neighboring villages who are waiting for Zhou Xialong's divorce to become matchmakers feel that they have missed out on 100 million, and they are as heartbroken as they want to be.
Since the afternoon of the 2nd, villagers have frequently visited Grandma Zhou’s house or Le’s house.
Grandma Zhang heard from the villagers that Zhou Xialong was divorced, and she was so happy that she almost jumped three feet high. So what if Zhou Xialong's sister married into the Le family? His mother-in-law didn't look down on him!
However, I was only happy for three seconds when I heard that Zhou Xialong's second wife had entered the door. I was so angry that Zhang Ke still hadn't found a partner after his divorce. Zhou Xialong found a new wife less than half a year after his divorce?!
Grandma Zhang was so angry that she almost vomited blood. She didn't dare to go to other people anymore. She huddled in her home and sighed, frowning.
Principal Fu also heard the news about Zhou Xialong's wedding in Meicun Village after going to work on the Monday after the New Year's Day holiday. He secretly inquired that it was Old Principal Yin who acted as a matchmaker, and that the woman was a widow whose husband had died, and there was a lot of acid in her stomach.
The cousin is young and good-looking, but the husband disagrees. Principal Yin introduced an older widow to Zhou Xialong but succeeded. In what way is his cousin inferior to the widow?
