James' incident ended up in the newspapers and was treated as a joke after dinner.
The whole incident had no impact on Yao Heming or the establishment of diplomatic relations, and was quickly forgotten.
It's November, less than a week away from Jin Bao and Yao Hua's wedding date.
In Luohu Village, Su Xiaowu drove a tractor home. There were a sewing machine, a motorcycle, an electric fan, a radio and a TV set on the trailer behind the truck, all tied with bright red wedding flowers.
Many people in the village came up to watch, "Wow, is this a motorcycle?"
"This thing seems to be only sold in Guangzhou. I've seen it once. It costs more than a thousand yuan, right? It's faster than a bicycle..."
Su Xiaowu smiled and said: "One Thousand Nine, we bought it from Guangzhou, the bicycle cannot be compared with it."
"Xiao Wu, whose girl are you marrying? You have prepared so many colorful gifts."
"It's not a betrothal gift, this is my sister's dowry," Su Xiaowu said with a happy smile, "We are going to drive this tractor to Jinghai City today to give my sister a dowry... hahaha..."
"Dowry? Jinbao is getting married?"
"Yes, marry Yao Hua. Didn't my dad say that?"
Many people have never heard that Jin Bao is getting married. "Isn't Jin Bao only eighteen?"
"Your Jinbao is quite young and has gone to college. Why do you want to get married so early?"
"Yao Hua is the educated youth who came to our village to go to the countryside before, right? When Jin Bao marries him, he should come to our village to pick up the bride. Why is your bride's family rushing to Jinghai City to deliver the dowry? You want him to give the bride price first
I’ll give it to you, right?”
Su Xiaowu didn't understand the wedding process, "I don't know about that."
When everyone was talking about it, Su Xiaosi jumped out of the car from the passenger side and said, "The bride price will be sent directly to Yao Hua's workplace and not to our home. Our family is not short of the bride price. The important thing is that Jinbao is living well."
.”
"That's true, but without the kissing part, I feel it's almost meaningless."
"Then your Jinbao family is getting married, and your old Su family won't invite guests to a banquet? Isn't this a bit too much..."
A man holding a cigarette stick blew out two puffs of smoke rings and said: "Nowadays, if the family conditions are decent, both the man's family and the woman's family have to hold banquets. Your old Su family is the richest in our village. Marrying a daughter is not a problem."
It’s a bit unreasonable to hold a banquet.”
"That is to say, besides, we have watched Jinbao grow up, and we also want to be happy about it."
At this time, the Su family, Su Jianmin and Bai Lu had all prepared their luggage for Jinghai City.
They were carrying large and small bags in their hands, and as soon as they walked out the door, they saw everyone surrounding their tractor.
"Dad!" Su Xiaosi ran towards them, whispered into his father's ear what everyone had been talking about before.
"The banquet will be reorganized," Su Jianmin said loudly. "When they finish the wedding in Jinghai City, Jinbao will go on winter vacation in two months. Yao Hua will definitely come back to our place to reorganize the banquet. Then the whole village will come.
"
When everyone heard this, they were happy and said that they would definitely go to the banquet.
Luo Youlong asked in a low voice: "Lao Su, if your family is going to Jinghai City, what should you do to welcome the bride? I think it is best to let Jin Bao come back, and then Yao Hua comes to pick up the bride and complete the wedding process. This is more in line with the rules.
.”
"This is too troublesome. Jinbao came back all the way and then went back to Jinghai City," Su Jianmin waved his hand, "She is still studying now and has no vacation. She should wait until the winter vacation to make up for the banquet and make it more lively.
all the same."
"Then there needs to be a part of picking up the bride," Luo Youlong thought for a while and suggested, "How about you find a bigger hotel in Jinghai City and let Yao Hua go there to pick up Jinbao... Anyway, there needs to be a ceremony.
Feeling it."
Bai Lu thought what he said made sense, "I thought before that it was almost meaningless without the wedding reception. Captain Luo, this is a good idea. Doesn't Bai Xing work in a hotel? How about we go there and rent a larger suite?"
"
"Okay," Su Jianmin nodded, "I was just worried about where to live."
They loaded their luggage into the car and set off to Jinghai City as a family. During this period, Xiaosi and Xiaowu took turns driving.
"The eldest brother and the second brother should have set off too, right?" Su Xiaosi asked casually one day later.
His father replied: "Your eldest brother is taking the train and is probably already on the train. I called your second brother at the post office before and he said he would drive a jeep himself. He might not leave until tomorrow, but he would definitely be able to make it before Jinbao gets married.
To Jinghai City."
Su Xiaowu said: "I haven't seen my eldest brother for a long time. I almost forgot what he looks like."
"Your eldest brother hasn't changed much, but your sister-in-law has gained weight again, but that's normal after having two children..."
The family was chatting about the rides. Su Xiaosi said that the advantage of a tractor is that it can carry a lot of things, but the disadvantages are that it is too slow and noisy. In the future, he wants to buy a car so that he can often visit Jinghai City.
Jin Bao.
"You have a very good idea, but you still want to buy a car. You have to be a leader at the municipal level or above to be able to buy a car, do you understand?"
Su Xiaosi turned the steering wheel, "This is the case now, but it may not be the case in the future. I heard that the country has already allowed Sino-foreign joint ventures, and in the future, private companies may be allowed.
Dad, we have to find a way to start a company by then. You can be the general manager, and Xiaowu and I will help you. How about that?"
Su Jianmin was so amused that he couldn't help laughing.
"Why should I be a general manager at my age? If you two really start a company in the future, I will work as a handyman in your company, helping you print some documents, answer the phone and run errands."
Su Xiaosi laughed and said: "Dad, you are only over fifty...you are in your prime, you are still young."
"Fifty-seven, I will be sixty in three years. I am still in my prime. Your mother and I are waiting for you to provide for us in our old age."
"To be honest, dad, you don't look like fifty-seven at all. You look younger than the people in the village who are over forty."
Su Jianmin looked back at his wife who was sitting in the back row and said jokingly: "I know why you dote on him. Xiaosi's mouth looks like it has honey on it. Why haven't you said these things to me before?"
?”
"Dad, you used to hit me on the head every day. Can I tell you this?"
As soon as Xiao Si said this, everyone in the car laughed.
Su Jianmin said amusedly: "Would I hit you for no reason? You kid..."
He said, gently poking Su Xiaosi's head with his finger, "Okay, drive well."
At this time, at Jinghai Academy of Fine Arts, Su Wenian told Jinbao that his father had called him and he should be able to arrive in Jinghai City in one day.
Seeing that Jin Bao was a little distracted, he asked, "What's the matter? Jin Bao, I think you don't seem to have much energy."
"I don't know what's going on recently. I feel a little panicked when I think about getting married..."
Jin Bao covered his chest, "Third brother, what do you think is wrong with me? I obviously like Yao Hua very much and will marry him soon. I should be very happy, but I don't know what's going on now.
Son, I always want to avoid him."
"No wonder you came to me suddenly today," Su Wennian looked at his sister and asked with a smile, "Are you afraid that Yao Hua will come to your school to find you?"
Jinbao nodded, "Well, I'm afraid that he will mention marriage to me. He looks so happy, and I don't want to disappoint him, but I'm really panicked... Third brother, you said that once two people get married,
