In fact, according to tradition, there is a very complicated process for recognizing relatives.
But now is a new society, and we no longer need to stick to the same old false etiquette.
It was the weekend and everyone had a rest. In the front yard of the courtyard, Zhao Ye's home held a simple but not simple family recognition ceremony.
There were many witnesses. Ran’s parents, Ran’s mom, Zhu Dachang, Director Yang from the street, and the three stewards of the hospital all served as witnesses.
The second uncle and the third uncle were better off. When they heard that a leader was with them, they naturally had nothing to say and had to go in a hurry.
But the old man had more on his mind.
When he first found out about it, he didn’t understand it very much!
Are the Han family stupid? They want children, and there are so many in orphanages. In recent years, many families who cannot afford to raise children have quietly left them at the door of the orphanage, hoping that the children will have a way to survive.
There are many boys who are not sick or suffering from disaster. Why do we have to admit that we are related to each other?
Besides, these few people are fatherless and motherless to begin with. We provide them with food, let them get married and have children. Such a good thing, why not let them change their surnames? Let them become members of their own family completely?
If you recognize a godson and you have to be responsible for growing up, you will still be someone else's child in the future. Isn't this a huge loss?
However, it seems that the Han family are not smart people at first glance. Why do they do this?
I am puzzled!
But regardless of whether he understood it or not, Director Yang from the sub-district office supported it. As the leader of the courtyard, he naturally couldn't speak against it.
The ceremony was indeed very simple. After everyone arrived, under the witness of everyone, Sijia hugged her brother Nian Kao and led her sister Sici to bow to Uncle Han and Aunt Han.
The old etiquette is to kneel down and kowtow, but this is not popular in this era. This kind of thing mainly depends on the attitude, and the form does not matter.
Uncle Han and Aunt Han also gave gifts of their own.
Uncle Han gave each child a bowl and a pair of kuaizi. This meant that he would take care of the children's meals in the future.
Aunt Han gave each of the two girls new clothes, which meant that they would be in charge of the children's clothing and dowry in the future. Aunt Han gave her brother a wooden box, which meant that he would inherit the family property in the future.
After these things were delivered, Mr. Zhu, who was standing on one side, said to the children, "Children, I'm going to change my words now. You have to call them godfather and godmother from now on. Quick, call them first."
Sici was still young, but she understood some things. She didn't know whether she should call her, so she looked at her sister.
Scarlett hesitated for a moment, then opened her mouth and shouted: "Dad, Mom!"
As soon as he opened his mouth, everyone was surprised.
This was much better than they imagined. Uncle Han and Aunt Han were even more happy and agreed repeatedly.
When Si Ci saw her sister calling, she also called her parents.
Uncle Han was so happy that he immediately hugged Sijia. Sijia was still holding one in her hand. At this time, everyone was so happy when they saw the scene that they all laughed.
Aunt Han also hugged Sici. They were a happy and harmonious family, no matter how harmonious they looked.
Zhao Ye also spoke at this time: "Uncle Han and Aunt Han, now that my brothers and sisters have changed their tune, I can't call you uncle or aunt anymore. Why don't I call you Father Han and Mother Han from now on?"
!”
When everyone heard it, wasn’t this the case?
"Okay, okay, of course. I gave you your kid's name! Hahahaha." Han Fusheng became even happier.
He didn't feel that he was taking advantage of Zhao Ye, he simply wanted to take care of the descendants of this life and death comrade in the future.
In his heart, this Zhao Ye has long been the same as his own child, and it doesn't matter what his name is. Of course, Zhao Ye himself is willing to go further, and he is happy to see the results.
The ceremony went very quickly, and within half an hour, everyone dispersed.
Originally, Uncle Han's family proposed to treat them to dinner, but Director Yang refused.
In this day and age, it is not easy to treat guests to dinner, and now we are against extravagance and waste. This is a matter of principle, so Uncle Han and Aunt Han did not insist on it.
I just gave a bottle of the prepared wine to everyone who came to bear witness.
After everyone dispersed, the elder's mind was still buzzing.
When Zhao Ye just changed his name to Han's father and Han's mother, Yi Zhonghai's mind was buzzing. He didn't listen to anything they said after that.
I was thinking in my mind, high! High! It’s really high!
These cultural people are so thoughtful!
How is this a loss-making business? This is a profitable business!
It's a pity that you have been so close and have lived together for so long. Why can't you compare to the old Han family you just met for a few days?
Oh, I regret it, I really regret it!
Have you been deceived by Silly Zhu? You only considered this candidate, how could you let the better Yezi go?
If I had recognized the children brought back by Zhao Ye earlier, could Zhao Ye not call me daddy?
Can he take care of himself in the future?
If a child is raised useless, what should he fear if he grows up not to be filial? Zhao Ye just needs to be filial!
With such a capable person, aren't you waiting to enjoy the blessings in the future?
Misstep! Big misstep.
How can we make up for it?
Yi Zhonghai fell into deep thinking.
Not to mention that the elder brother was thinking hard at home, but Zhao Ye and his family were preparing to go out for dinner. There was no way to cook in the yard, especially no good food. There was no treat just now, so let’s eat and drink in this situation
Yes, how will Zhao Ye behave in the future?
But if you can’t eat in the courtyard, can’t you still go to a restaurant to eat? It’s just a matter of spending more money.
Today is a big event for the Han family, so they naturally want to celebrate. After discussing it, they decided to eat roast duck.
The two girls ate to their heart's content. Even Zhao Ye felt that the roast duck of this era was no less than that of later generations, and even a little bit better. Maybe it was because he hadn't eaten it for a long time and it was fresh. Maybe it was because of this era.
Is there any secret recipe that will be lost to future generations?
Ignore it, as long as it tastes good.
After several people had eaten, Father Han talked to Zhao Ye about the future arrangements.
"Yezi, we are thinking that if we bring Sici and Niankao to Shanghai in the future, we won't have to transfer their household registrations. Will they still stay with you?"
"Huh? Why? In this case, your food ration will be gone. How can this be done?" Zhao Ye retorted.
"Yezi, Sici and Niankao are still young and can't eat much. Besides, when they grow up, your aunt and I will have no problem supporting them with our wages. But you are different. I
I heard Lao Zhu say that your appetite is quite big, no less than that of your father! Good guy, Lao Zhu said that you can eat as much as him for two days. You haven’t eaten enough in the past few days, have you?"
Come on, the reputation of this loser has spread to Uncle Han!
"Dad Han, it's not that exaggerated. What Master Zhu was talking about was when I first came here. At that time, I was very hungry, so I ate more. Now that I have oil and water in my belly, my appetite will naturally decrease."
Zhao Ye explained.
"Young man, you will eat me to death. You are at the age when you can eat. If you don't transfer your child's household registration, you can have more food. Okay, that's it, no more words." Han
Fu Sheng made tough arrangements.
"That's okay, let's do this for now." Zhao Ye didn't force it. Anyway, Uncle Han and Aunt Han's wages were not low, so there would always be a way to have enough to eat.
After eating, Han's father and Han's mother took them to the department store again. They walked around in a big circle and didn't go home until dark.
As soon as he entered the courtyard, the third uncle was still guarding the door as before. It was really difficult for him in such a cold weather.
But today his hard work was not in vain, because he witnessed the birth of the first bicycle in this compound.
"Yezi, did you buy this car?" The third uncle's tone was sour and envious, and maybe a little excited.
"Yes, third uncle. My uncle happened to have a ticket, and I still had some royalties, so I reluctantly bought one." Zhao Ye said to Yan Bugui with a smile.
"Hey, you are still a big one! This is precious." The third uncle almost couldn't pull it out. Because it was dark, the old man almost lay on the car and watched carefully. The gentle hands
Touching and looking at it, Zhao Ye got goosebumps all over his body.
"Third uncle, why don't you let me go home first? If you want to see it later, there is plenty of time." Zhao Ye looked at the third uncle who was lying on the car and couldn't get up, and said in his heart that it was impossible not to be angry.
"Hey, don't be in a hurry to go home. I'll take a look and take a look." Well, Zhao Ye was really angry. These three uncles were too incapable of hearing nice words.
"Third uncle, my children have been freezing for most of the day. You are not cold, but my children can't stand it." Zhao Ye's tone became stiff involuntarily.
At this time, the third uncle came back to his senses, and climbed out of the car reluctantly with a sarcastic smile.
He really climbed. This old boy has already climbed into the back seat.
"Yezi, I'm going to have a big and small affair from now on. You can't bear to part with your bicycle. You have to lend it to me. This is the first bicycle in our compound."
"Okay, let's talk about it then." Zhao Ye didn't dare to agree directly. He could guarantee that if he dared to agree more quickly, these three uncles would come to borrow it early the next morning.
Uncle Han and Aunt Han also stayed here tonight and did not go back to the guest house. They have to catch the train tomorrow afternoon and want to get closer to the children.
The children slept on the kang with Uncle Han and Aunt Han, and Zhao Ye set up a bed alone in the main room to spend the night.
This also made Uncle Han and Aunt Han see it, thinking that when they return to Shanghai, they must choose a bigger house, otherwise they will really not be able to live in it in the future. Zhao Ye and the others can't sleep like this after they go home, right? Who then?
I still want to go.
Zhao Ye actually slept soundly. He didn't know this move, but it also prompted Uncle Han to spend more time preparing his residence, and finally he found a very nice small courtyard.
Early the next morning, before Zhao Ye woke up, he heard a knock on the door outside.
Zhao Ye was still a little annoyed to get out of bed. He put on his clothes and went to open the door. At first glance, it was the third uncle. Looking at the sky again, well, it was just dawning.
"Third uncle, what's the matter with you, knocking on my door so early?" Zhao Ye said angrily.
"Hey, I'm planning to get up early to catch some fish, Yezi, you don't know, the early bird catches the worm."
"Haha, third uncle, why did I hear that early risers get eaten by birds? My uncle wants to use his bicycle today. Third uncle, you are late. Just leave it at that. I'll see you later!"
With a bang, Zhao Ye closed the door again.
The third uncle, who was rejected, walked back angrily. He was still mumbling, but no one could hear what he was talking about.
