Chapter 77 Wedding
After resting at home for a few days, I received a remittance order from the post office, which was 2,000 yuan. That was the final payment paid to me by Ku Junwei.
I have gained a lot of favor for this kid Ku Junwei, not because he gave me money, but because I think this kid is quite righteous and keeps his promises. Such a person is worthy of long-term cooperation.
I left five hundred yuan myself and gave 1,500 yuan to my family. Seeing that the weather was about to get colder, I asked my mother to buy a small jacket. My mother couldn't bear to leave it and saved all 1,500 yuan, saying that she would leave it for me to marry a wife and repair the house.
I smiled and said, I am less than twenty years old, so why should I marry a wife?
Seeing my mother carefully depositing the money into the candy box, my heart felt a little bitter. My father and mother have been poor all their lives. They are reluctant to eat and wear, and they keep every penny for me. This is the deepest love that parents have for their children. In the future, I will work harder, earn more money, and strive to allow their parents to enjoy their old age and live a happy life.
This time I went out and felt a lot. The rivers and lakes were deep and I didn’t have strong abilities, and I would be drowned once I entered the rivers and lakes. Therefore, in order to gain a foothold in the rivers and lakes, I must work hard to improve myself, and at least I have to develop my master’s skills so that I can truly walk in the rivers and lakes.
I study "The Stories of the Wishes" hard every day. When the rooster crows, I have to study until midnight. Day after day, the profound content in it has benefited me a lot, and my cultivation has gradually grown without realizing it.
Lei Zi goes to the mountain temple every day to report, regardless of wind and rain. Lei Zi’s fate cannot become a corpse driver, so he can only work hard to strengthen his body and practice external skills. Although he does not have magic, he has a skill in boxing and kicking, which is also an excellent thing.
Under Chen Xiucai's careful training, Lei Zi made great progress. He has liked to dance with guns and sticks since he was a child and has a solid foundation in body. Now, with Chen Xiucai's guidance, Lei Zi quickly developed a body of steel and iron, and showed off his muscles in front of me if he has nothing to do.
Lei Zi rolled up his sleeves and raised his elbows: "Jiujizi, look, how about my biceps?"
Lei Zi pulled off his pants and raised his butt: "Jiujizi, look at my glutes, aren't you sexy?"
Lei Zi stood naked in front of me, proudly: "Jiujizi, look at my little bird's skin, is it powerful?"
"Get out!" I grabbed the pen on the table and shot over.
Lei Zi covered his crotch, his legs wrapped around him, and let out a shrill scream: "My youthful bird has flew away..."
A few days later, Shuiwa Village began to become lively because Village Chief Ma's son was about to hold a wedding soon.
Village Chief Ma is the head of a village, and basically the whole village is invited by Village Chief Ma. Leizi and I attended as VIP guests because of Chen Xiucai, which made Leizi and I feel particularly proud.
In our countryside, whenever we celebrate festivals, or have funerals, we will hold banquets, dozens or hundreds of large round tables, and they will be placed in the open spaces in the village, laughing and cheering, crowded, and it is very lively.
Especially for wedding banquets like this, basically all the villagers in the village will come to help, some help build stoves, some help cook, some help clean, and some help do odd jobs. No matter which family has a wedding, the neighbors will come out, work hard and help each other enthusiastically. This kind of scene is hard to see in the city.
Many people in the city have a sense of superiority and always dislike us rural people. I admit that we rural people have relatively low cultural level and social experience, but it does not mean that we have low qualities and low character. Compared with the false feelings in the city, I still prefer the simplicity and innocence of the countryside.
This wedding scene is huge, probably the most popular wedding in Shuiwa Village in history. It has opened a total of 99 tables, meaning eternal. The wedding venue is located in the open space in front of the village committee, with lights and colorful decorations everywhere, crowded with people, and more lively than the New Year.
The most special guest was treated as the front table. According to the convention, the front tables were all left to the family relatives and elders, but we were invited to sit here.
My parents and the others sat in the back, and Leizi and I followed Chen Xiucai to sit in the front.
At this time, you can see Chen Xiucai's prestige in Shuiwa Village.
Basically, everyone who passes by Chen Xiucai has to come up and say hello respectfully and call Xiucai. Some people even run up from behind to say hello to Chen Xiucai. Chen Xiucai also smiled and returned the favor one by one, without any airs and approachable. This is what I admire about Chen Xiucai the most.
In order to attend the wedding, Chen Xiucai specifically asked Lei Zi to go to the town and bought him a new set of clothes. The red, retro jacket, and his head full of silver hair and this retro jacket made Chen Xiucai full of ancient charm and full of immortality, just like an old god who traveled through time from ancient times, with a thrill of spirit.
Leizi and I were also wearing new clothes, one left and one right next to Chen Xiucai. Many villagers cast envious eyes at us.
Perhaps for many people, a corpse-driver is a very low-level job and cannot be put on the table, but at this moment, I feel the pride of being a corpse-driver. There are 360 professions and 360 professions, and no one looks down on anyone. Respect is achieved through my own labor.
The son of Village Chief Ma has a single name, Fei, and is named Ma Fei, which means flying to the sky.
Ma Fei is indeed successful. After graduating from high school, he joined the army and performed well in the army. Although he is only in his twenties now, he is already a small official in the army. He has won medals of merit many times and has a bright future. Therefore, every time Village Chief Ma mentioned his son, he was full of pride. No matter what, our Shuilou Village has an official position, which is something that neighbors are very envious in the countryside.
When we entered the banquet, the groom warmly greeted the guests at the wedding.
I looked at this Ma Fei. He was really pretty. He was 1.8 meters tall, tall, tall, dark skin, and a strong masculine taste. Compared with the young and handsome sissy on TV, he was more handsome than a little bit, especially the military majesty revealed between his eyebrows, which was even more masculine. If I were a woman, I would fall in love with the man in front of me at first sight.
This wedding was a classic Chinese wedding. Ma Fei was also wearing a retro groom uniform, smiling and shy.
The wedding ceremony was also very lively, and various links caused constant laughter on the scene.
Chen Xiucai stroked his beard and said, "Jiuyizi, Leizi, I don't know if you two boys can invite me to have a wedding banquet when I was still alive!"
Leizi said: "Master, what are you saying? If you live a hundred years old, you will definitely see us marrying a wife! Right, Jiu Yazi?"
Lei Zi hit me with his elbow, and I quickly echoed: "Yes! You will not only see us marrying a wife, but also see us holding children. You will be the master at that time!"
Chen Xiucai laughed and said, "Live for a hundred years? I am over 100 years old now, not many years old!"
"Master, come on, drink and drink. Today is a festive day. Don't say these unlucky words!" I quickly poured wine for Chen Xiucai.
The wedding banquet lasted from noon until the evening. The master and apprentice never got off the table. At night, we changed into a new table of dishes and continued to eat and drink.
It’s not that we are poor and we have to make a living, but one is because of the customs. The custom here is that if we say goodbye in advance, it will seem rude to the host. If you stay and keep eating and drinking, the host will be very happy and think that this is a kind of respect for them. There is another reason, we can’t leave at all. Village Chief Ma took the lead and led all the relatives in the family to drink with us one after another, and my tongue was so big that I drank.
After dinner, it’s time to have a bridal chamber.
We have a bridal chamber here. Although it is in the countryside, there is no vulgar wedding quarrel in the news.
We just made a symbolic lively, played a few small games, and then sent the groom and bride into the bridal chamber.
A big red lantern was hung at the door of the bridal chamber, and the groom and the bride stood at the door to greet relatives and friends.
Before entering the bridal chamber, the bride could not take off the red veil, so we didn't see the true appearance of the bride from beginning to end. We could only see the bride's figure, which was quite delicate and concave. Imagine that under the red veil, there should be a beautiful face.
Lei Zi looked at the bride's slender legs intently and swallowed wildly.
Lei Zi sucked the corner of his mouth and muttered: "I would be the groom!"
I glared at him: "Speak quietly, if someone hears it, you must cut your tongue!"
Lei Zi rubbed his hands and smiled foolishly: "Haha, just kidding! Just kidding!"
The guests dispersed one after another, and we also said goodbye to Village Chief Ma and the two newcomers. At this moment, a naughty child suddenly emerged from somewhere, suddenly uncovered the bride's red veil, then ran away with a laugh, shouting, "Look at the bride!Look at the bride!"
The bride happened to be standing under the big red lantern, and the candlelight shone on her face. I looked back and suddenly became stunned.
This is a very beautiful face, but for some reason, I think this face is very familiar and seems to have seen it somewhere.
The bride smiled shyly, turned around and walked into the inner room. The groom bowed to us and followed us into the room.
Lei Zi pulled my arm and walked out: "Let's go! Everyone has entered the house, are you still dazed? Look at your absent-minded look, you are still embarrassed to say to me! But then again, the bride is really beautiful!"
Chapter completed!
