After such a good wedding banquet, Li Manjun felt that he had added a lot of after-dinner gossip to the people in the town.
He glanced at Zhao Yong. Zhao Yong's face was sullen and his eyes were obscure. He must have seen the true face of the Li family.
He had been respectful and polite to Li Dawei at the wine table just now, but when Li Dalong shamelessly asked about the recruitment of the team again, he no longer had the previous enthusiasm and changed the subject lightly.
Li Dalong felt this alienation and knew that he had offended his new son-in-law, so he cursed in his heart.
Zhao Yong saw all Li Dalong's little thoughts and sneered in his heart, "You dare to scold my wife, and you still want me to be nice to you?"
I didn't beat Li Dalong because he was an elder!
The two elders of the Li family disliked Li Dawei's small house, took the remaining cigarettes and alcohol, and asked Da Niu to drive the tractor back to the village.
Siblings Liu Yan and Liu Cheng ate meat and drank wine in silence. After finishing the meal, they packed it up and took it away. They said congratulations to Li Manjun and Zhao Yong and were the last to leave.
Relatives and friends all dispersed, and my uncle and aunt and uncle went home and sat for a while, chatting until they took the shuttle bus back in the afternoon.
At about 4:30 in the afternoon, only her own family members were left at home. Wang Xiaojuan was still angry about what Qian Shufen said. Because her son-in-law Zhao Yong was there, she did not have a fight with Li Dawei.
"Your aunt and sister-in-law are not free to come. These are the red envelopes they brought to you. You should keep them yourself and return the gifts later." Li Dawei took out two red envelopes wrapped in red paper from his trouser pocket and handed them to them.
Zhao Yong.
Zhao Yong took it and handed it to Li Manjun.
Li Manjun calculated the red envelopes she received today. The parents of her colleagues received them themselves, and these uncles and aunts did not give them to her. The parents will have to pay back the gifts themselves in the future.
As for her and Zhao Yong, they received three uncles and aunts, one cousin and two aunts, making a total of six.
When I opened it, I saw that the two aunts each gave me twenty yuan. This is a custom. Sisters and brothers in the family should give big red envelopes if they do something good.
In the countryside, people usually give away five or ten yuan. The two aunts paid for twenty yuan, which is considered a lot.
My uncle and aunt gave more gifts, two hundred yuan each, my uncle also gave me eighty-eight yuan, and my cousin Danniu also gave me ten yuan.
The young couple does not have much private property, and ten yuan is not a small amount of money for them.
All added up, 538 yuan.
Li Manjun took out the gift book and wrote it down so that he could return the gift later.
There is no harm without comparison. Wang Xiaojuan asked Li Dawei: "Where is your brother and sister-in-law's red envelope?"
Li Dawei shook his head in embarrassment. Wang Xiaojuan took a deep breath and rolled her eyes secretly. She was tired of Li Dalong, this pair of greats!
Li Dawei added: "It belongs to Daniel and his family. If Daniel gives it to him, it is equivalent to giving it to his elder brother and sister-in-law."
Wang Xiaojuan pointed to Li Manjun, "How dare you say this? Why don't you see how much her aunt and uncle gave her?"
Zhao Yong wisely remained silent about his wife's family matters and did not express opinions unless necessary. qqxsnew
Li Manjun closed the gift book and said to her parents: "This matter is over. I didn't expect them to take us at ease. Now it's better. If my aunt makes such a fuss, we will have a reason not to go back for the Chinese New Year this year."
.”
Thinking about it this way, it was really a good thing, and the depression in Wang Xiaojuan's heart dissipated a lot.
Suddenly I slapped my head, and then I remembered that I was so angry that I had left the child's aunt's red envelope, so I hurriedly took it out and handed it to Li Manjun.
"This is your aunt's. I saw it. It's one hundred and eighty yuan. Your father and I don't want the money. You just got married, so you can use it to buy some things for yourself."
In this regard, Li Manjun feels that his parents are many times higher than Li Dalong's family.
When Li Lanfang's sister got married, because Qian Shufen didn't bring back even a cent of the bride price, she even prepared an old set of dowry and bedding. The two sides had such an ugly quarrel that the cousin stayed at her husband's house all the time.
Being looked down upon, unable to hold one’s head up.
It wasn't until I gave birth to a son that things became easier. Now during the holidays, my cousin doesn't go back to her parents' house.
The 718 yuan gift money was credited to his account. Li Manjun kept the money and led Zhao Yong into the room to pack his luggage.
Starting tonight, she can no longer live in her parents' home.
Li Manjun originally thought about staying at home for one night and then moving tomorrow, but Wang Xiaojuan said that this is customary, and if you have a good day, you have to move out, otherwise it will be bad for the brothers at home.
As for the bad method, Wang Xiaojuan couldn't explain why. Anyway, it was just to block her brother's fortune.
Moreover, when she returns to her parents' home in the future, she cannot sleep with Zhao Yong. She has to sleep separately, otherwise it will be bad for her brothers at home.
Li Jianjun, a boy with a good conscience, said directly: "Sister, you and your brother-in-law can sleep at home if you want. I don't believe this."
Wang Xiaojuan gave him a shock, "Adults talk, children shut up."
"Superstitious." Li Manjun complained about this unreasonable feudal custom and handed two sets of newly made quilts to Zhao Yong and asked him to move them away first.
She doesn't have many things, just a few sets of clothes, four pairs of shoes, a bankbook with her ID card, and a few bottles of newly bought skin care products. She took out her old backpack and packed it all in one backpack.
By the way, don't leave behind her big gold flower necklace.
Li Lijun was in a complicated mood. Before her sister left, she really wanted a room of her own.
Now I got what I wanted, but my heart is empty.
"Sister, will you come back?" Li Lijun took her sister's arm, as if she would never come back once she left.
Li Manjun was amused, "What are you thinking? I'm not going abroad, of course I will come back."
"It's getting late and I can't delay you. It will be dark if you return to the city later. After you finish your high school entrance exam, you can come to Rongcheng to find me at any time."
After saying that, he pointed to the desk under the window, "My home address, phone number, and your brother-in-law's Beep phone number are all on the table. You can contact me at any time."
Li Lijun then let go, and the whole family sent the two of them to the car together.
Liu Yan also came. She had been waiting near Zhao Yong's truck for a long time. When she saw Li Manjun coming, she handed her a bag of peanuts.
"These are the salted peanuts cooked by my mother. You can take them with you to eat on the road."
As I was talking, I was thinking about the days when the two of me made peanut candies and collected toothpaste skins together, and my eyes became red for some reason.
He turned his back quickly, took a few deep breaths to hold back the tide, turned his head and said to Li Manjun with a smile: "We all need to work hard."
"Come on together!" Li Manjun clenched his fists, and the two sisters touched each other in tacit understanding.
Zhao Yong opened the passenger seat and threw Li Manjun's backpack first, then turned around and reached out to her. Li Manjun took his hand, and Zhao Yong easily lifted her to her seat.
The two got into the car, closed the door, waved to their families, and slowly drove away from Heather Town.
Li Manjun watched her parents, brothers and sisters waving to her in the rearview mirror, and suddenly felt a sense of sourness in her heart. She actually couldn't bear to leave these family members.
A pair of warm big hands held her little hand hanging on her knee, and Zhao Yong said, "You still have me."
Li Manjun turned to look at him. The man drove the car seriously, facing forward, with the corners of his mouth slightly raised.
"Are you happy?" Li Manjun asked.
Zhao Yong couldn't hold it in any longer and smiled brightly.
How can you not be happy when you get a beautiful wife?
