In this day and age, most wedding banquets only have eight dishes, and those that can serve ten dishes are very good.
The Han family originally prepared ten dishes, but the venison and mutton were added later.
The twelve dishes were all very good, and the size of the dishes was not small, and the taste was unparalleled. All the guests who came to celebrate the meal were very happy.
Not long after the banquet started, Da Zhangluo called the bride and groom to toast.
Logically speaking, one should respect one's mother's family first and then her husband's family.
But today is special. There are so many leaders from the county, so they must toast first.
Guan Enxue and his party were accompanied by Lin Qiyue, Li Bingzhuo, Chen Jianzhang, and Xu Shiyan. When the new couple came over, everyone sent their most sincere blessings.
Xu Shiqin couldn't drink, but Han Liwei didn't care and drank directly.
"Well, Liwei, drink less. After all, you are just recovering from a serious injury. Everyone understands."
Lin Qiyue was afraid that Han Liwei's health would be affected by drinking too much, so he quickly called a few young men over to protect Han Liwei and prevent some people from teasing him into drinking.
"Yes, yes, your health is important. We all understand, as long as you mean it as much as you want." Guan Enxue and others also expressed their understanding.
Han Liwei thanked everyone and went to the next table with Xu Shiqin to toast.
The few young men at the back were all instructed by Lin Qiyue. If anyone wanted to make a fuss and wanted to drink, these guys would go up and help him drink.
In this way, Han Liwei avoided the risk of getting drunk. He only drank a few glasses of wine from beginning to end, and everything else was blocked.
Everyone can understand, after all, he is a person who almost lost his life, so it is better to be careful.
The banquet at this time is still very lively, everyone is drinking and chatting.
The young ones also punched a few times and shouted loudly. Although it was a bit noisy, the atmosphere was good.
Guan Enxue and others still had work to do, so they couldn't stay for long. Not long after the couple toasted, they got up and left.
There is no need to hold on here, but the work is urgent and cannot be delayed.
In this way, Guan Enxue and his party left by car and returned to the county town.
After a while, the guests from my mother's family had almost finished eating, so they chatted with the Han family for a while and then left one after another.
The neighbors, relatives, friends, and those nearby who congratulated Xi all left separately. For those who had a long way to go or had to drive, Xu Shiyan arranged for someone to drive to see him off.
Su Wenzhong and other relatives from the camp had to catch the three o'clock train, so they left by car together with Su Anhua.
In the end, only the Xu brothers were left to go home to be with their parents.
"Father, Mom, you didn't see that scene. The county leaders came and even gave the sixth brother-in-law a plaque.
The sixth brother-in-law is really awesome this time. I heard that the sixth brother-in-law will go to the capital to study in the next year. When he finishes his studies, it will be even more amazing."
Brother Xu Shixian and others returned home and began to happily tell their parents what they saw at the Han family today.
Xu Chenghou and Zhou Guilan were both stunned. They were still talking about it at home, wondering where Han Liwei would be arranged when he returned to the team after a year.
But I didn't expect that Han Liwei would make such a great contribution and go directly to university for further study.
"What does that university do? Where can I be placed after I graduate?"
Xu Chenghou had never heard of these before, so he had to ask.
"Dad, that university does not recruit students from outside, it only recruits the best and outstanding people in the organization to study.
After further training, you will have to reach the regiment level at least, right?
I heard that Liwei was promoted to an exceptional level. I didn’t say to what level he was promoted, but I guess the lowest level is deputy corps." Xu Shiyan thought for a moment and said.
Xu Shiyan was eating with Guan Enxue and others. From what Xiao Yunsheng meant, Han Liwei was definitely not promoted to the first level this time.
You must know that Han Liwei has always performed well in the organization. He was the deputy battalion before going to the southwest. This time, the rotation is normal and he can be promoted to the first level.
Now that he has made such a big contribution, it is definitely not a matter of promotion.
"Oh, how much contribution does Li Wei have to make to receive such a high honor?" Xu Chenghou sighed with emotion.
"That's right, Third Brother, you didn't ask carefully? We only know that Li Wei has done meritorious service, but how did he do it?"
Xu Shixian suddenly remembered, didn't he? He was happy to care about it, and no one asked, how did Han Liwei achieve this achievement?
"Brother, you can't ask about this matter. If you can talk about it, tell the secretary directly when they come.
Since it is not mentioned, it proves that it is still kept secret and is not something we can inquire about."
Xu Shiyan shook his head and sighed. Ordinarily, the eldest brother would not understand this.
Xu Shixian slapped his forehead, "Isn't that true? I forgot about this. Don't ask, don't ask about anything."
"Yes, don't ask around. We don't care about Li Wei's achievements, as long as he does well."
No matter how you achieve merit, you have to risk your life to fight for it.
Han Liwei was like stepping into the gate of hell and being saved again.
Outsiders see how glorious it is to make a meritorious service, and only his family members feel sorry for him. He doesn't know how much he suffered and how much blood he shed to earn the honor he has today.
"Okay, you have been busy for several days and you are all very tired, so let's take a rest first.
We will meet the in-laws tomorrow, and Shiqin and his wife will return home the day after tomorrow.
If you two are busy, you can go home separately after your in-laws meeting tomorrow. There won’t be a banquet when you get home anyway, so you can just sit with your family and chat for a while.”
Now that my daughter has left the house, there is nothing to worry about at home.
Xu Chenghou took a look and saw that it was almost three o'clock. There was nothing going on today, just one meal in the evening.
There's still a lot of food left in the morning, just warm it up, take a rest when it's time, and let's talk about other things later.
Xu Shixian and others all drank some wine, and now they were all really tired, so they simply walked away.
When Xu Shiyan and Su Anying saw it, they hurried home to light a fire. They were so busy that day that they didn't pay attention to the family, so they got up in the morning and lit a fire.
If we don't light the fire in this cold weather, we can't stay in the house at night.
"Yuanyuan, you guys are playing with your brothers and sisters here. Your mother and I will go home and light the fire. We'll be back soon."
Xu Shiyan told his son and hurriedly went home with Su Anying to light the fire.
There were two kang beds in the east and west rooms, plus fire walls, all of which had to be lit. Xu Shide and the others had to stay here at night, so the house couldn't be too cold.
Fortunately, there is plenty of firewood at home, as well as whole tree roots, lumps and so on. I can put a few more pieces into the stove and let it burn slowly and for a longer time.
After the kang was heated up and the room became warm, the couple sat down and wanted to chat and take a nap.
As a result, as soon as I sat down here, I heard something scratching at the door. Needless to say, it must be a scoundrel.
Xu Shiyan went out and opened the door, and saw the scoundrel standing outside the door with a pheasant in his mouth and waving his big fluffy tail.
"You guys, you ran away last night and you didn't come back until now? What happened? Did you bring me something delicious?"
Xu Shiyan stepped aside and let the scoundrel enter the house.
Yesterday Xu Shide and others came to stay, but the deadbeat didn't show up, and I didn't see it this morning either.
This fox is almost a spirit. Whenever someone unfamiliar comes to the house, it won't show its head at all and will hide far away.
The deadbeat didn't enter the house, he just put the pheasant in his mouth on the ground, turned around and ran back to the east house.
