When you get married here, there is no custom of groomsmen and bridesmaids. When the man goes to pick up the bride, he will take two children, a boy and a girl, with him in the car, called golden boys and girls. Children are easy to find, and there are two ready-made ones. Maomao and Tong Tong are very young.
It's appropriate, because the woman will "seal money" for the children, so she only looks for the children of her own relatives.
The house was cleaned again. Sister, brother-in-law, Li Yuncong, Mao Dan, Hu Dahai, and Jiang Qinqin all came to help. Since they were getting married in the next two days, the woman could not see the man at this time. So although they were very close, Yang Yu
The slave didn't dare to come over, for fear of being laughed at.
When she and her younger sister went to the town to pick up their younger brother who had returned from vacation, they passed by the villa and were too embarrassed to look over. Her younger brother Yang Yulong went to a private high school in the city and was only on vacation today. Since there was only one boy in the family, he was spoiled very much.
For such an old man, when he returns to town by car, he has to call his family to pick him up.
In previous years, Yang Wending and his wife would pick him up together, but this year was special. They had to prepare a dowry for their daughter Yang Yunu and receive relatives and friends who came to congratulate them. They had no time, so they had to let their two daughters pick her up.
Li Qingyun didn't have a good impression of his wife's brother, because when he was a child, this little brat was used to complaining. Whenever he touched him, he would roll on the floor crying, saying that someone hit him. And Yang Wending favored boys over girls. Anyone who bullied his son would be punished no matter what.
If you are wrong, you have to ask the other person’s parents for comment.
Because of this, Li Qingyun didn't like to talk to that little kid. Once, he was scolded by his mother because of Yang Yulong. Before going home, he caught the little kid, beat him up and fled home. He didn't dare to leave his grandma for a long time.
Home.
Li Qingyun's grandma likes to nag. She stands in the yard and directs this and that: "Fuwa, don't be in a daze. Hurry to find Chef Li and ask him to pull the things over quickly and set up the stove as soon as possible. With so many people coming to help, it's not easy to
Let’s set up the pot first, how can we take care of everyone’s stomachs?”
Li Qingyun responded and was about to call Chef Li when grandma said again: "Where is your dad? He is such a big man. When it was not safe to do anything, I asked him to cut off more plastic sheets to build a shed.
A little older, how can they do this? What if it snows and rains on the wedding day?"
Chen Xiuzhi just came back from borrowing a stool. Seeing her mother-in-law's anxious look, she hurriedly tried to persuade her: "Mom, it's still early. It's not too late to build it tomorrow. The plastic sheets have been cut long ago. Don't worry. How big of a shed can you build?"
There’s so much I can’t use up. By the way, I heard Fuwa’s aunt is coming, when will she arrive?”
"Oh, if you didn't tell me, I almost forgot. Then Nizi said she would arrive this afternoon. What time is it? If her grandson hadn't gotten married, I wouldn't have let her come back from far away. Fuwa, give it to you.
Call me and ask her where she is."
Li Qingyun didn't finish one thing, so his grandma arranged another one for him.
Li Qingyun responded and hurriedly called his aunt. He didn't have much contact with his aunt's family because his aunt married out of town and settled in a mountain city. He usually came back to visit his grandma during the holidays. If he was busy with business, he would not come back sometimes.
Mail back the things you need to buy and send some money to your grandparents.
Precisely because we are far away and don't move around much, the relationship with my aunt's family is somewhat alienated. This may be a common problem among all relatives. The more you move around, the closer you will be. If there is little contact, no matter how close the relationship is, it will not work.
My aunt's family runs a health care product business in a mountain city. The business is not big. They have their own store in a health care products wholesale mall. They are considered a wealthy family. When I came back to visit relatives during the Spring Festival, my aunt's family drove back in a private car. What brand was the car?
Li Qingyun couldn't remember clearly, but he always felt that it was a high-end car. The piles of gifts taken out of the trunk of the car were what impressed him the most.
Li Qingyun quickly dialed his aunt's phone number, and her aunt said that she had arrived at the county seat. Because there was ice on the road, she was driving very fast, but she would definitely get home before dark.
Accompanying my aunt is my cousin. He is my aunt’s only son. He is an only child and is quite pampered. My cousin got married early and the children have already run around. My cousin’s sister-in-law didn’t come. She said she was taking care of the children at home and was busy.
business in the store.
Businessmen, the more the New Year is celebrated, the better the business. My uncle is too busy alone. Li Qingyun understands this. It is estimated that his aunt and cousin will not stay long, at most two or three days. He will return immediately after he gets married.
.
Cousin Li Qingmu ran over and whispered to him: "Fuwa, people from Dongfang Agricultural Trading Company came over and changed a person in charge. They said that the original person in charge resigned and did not know the previous accounts. Wait until he finishes pulling this batch
For the goods, let the boss pay us one time and settle the balance."
"Japanese ancestors, they are just trying to trick me with nothing. If they don't pay off their previous debts, they won't be able to take even a single vegetable away from me. Where is he? Show me to me."
Look." When Li Qingyun heard this, he became very angry and followed Li Qingmu without saying a word.
Although the lowest price of ten yuan per catty was paid on the spot, the share of the money is the bulk of the payment. Li Qingyun now pays very high wages to the workers. If he cannot get the share of the money, the farm will not make much money at all. In this snowy weather,
Ordinary vegetables have gone up to 6 or 7 yuan, and special green vegetables like this can sometimes not be bought with money.
The three big hotels that he often cooperated with took the initiative to raise their prices, fearing that Li Qingyun would stop supplying to them in anger. After all, they knew the price of Li Qingyun's vegetables in the market, and Li Qingyun was loyal enough to give them the base price of ten yuan.
They don't feel at ease when getting goods in such a snowy day.
The person in charge of Dongfang Trading who came to pull goods this time was named Guo. The driver called him Manager Guo. He was a young man in his twenties.
"Are you Boss Li? Haha, I heard about you. I just called the boss of our company. The boss said that the Chinese New Year is coming soon and the business of our agricultural trading company is very good. We will wait for him to settle the settlement for us.
Once the account is settled, we will transfer the money to your farm immediately." Manager Guo had a smile on his face but was speechless. He came over from a distance to shake hands with Li Qingyun.
Li Qingyun put his hands in his pockets and ignored him. He looked at Manager Guo several times very rudely and then said: "You just graduated not long ago, right? Do you dare to jump into any kind of quagmire? You met someone like me today.
, you have a good temper. If you have a bad temper, I have already asked someone to beat you out. I have a message for you, Boss Zhao, and ask him to wash his neck and wait. I will go to the meeting after I finish my work at home.
I am visiting the provincial capital. I will get back the money you owe me with interest, not even a penny less. Now, get out of here and don’t show up in front of me in the future. Even if the vegetables on my farm are rotten, they will not be lost.
I will never cooperate with you again, Oriental Trading.”
Manager Guo was frightened by Li Qingyun's tough attitude, and then he realized that the company he had just joined had already offended him thoroughly.
"Okay, okay, there must be some misunderstanding here. I will tell our boss the truth." Manager Guo's face turned red. Although he was a little confused, he still led the people away angrily.
Li Qingyun explained to his stunned cousin: "Originally, I wanted to hear the other party find some new reasons and excuses, but I didn't expect that the other party would still use these clichés. Do you think everyone else is a fool? The old debt has not been settled, and you still want to borrow a new debt? Ha,
He said that their company's business is good and they will definitely not have to worry about selling, so they let me rest assured on credit... I don't have time for these idiots this year. When I find time, I will go directly to the big market to open up the market and sell directly to big hotels. They are too lazy.
Deal with these slick middlemen."
"Okay, we don't have to worry about selling our vegetables, but we have picked a lot of vegetables today. If we don't wholesale them as soon as possible, it will be bad if they become wilted." Li Qingmu said.
"Well... it's simple. You ask the workers to move the vegetables to the shed over there and hand them over to Chef Li. I am going to entertain all the men in the village when I get married. Are you worried that there is no place to use the vegetables? Let's eat it ourselves."
Li Qingyun pointed at the newly built shed and said proudly.
"Ah? You want to use green vegetables at your wedding banquet? This, this is a vegetable that costs tens of dollars per catty... It's such a waste to feed the villagers..." Li Qingmu was so shocked that he couldn't speak.
"What's the tens of dollars per pound? We grow it in our own land and feed it to our own people. What's the waste? Okay, let's do it." Li Qingyun said, the phone rang again, he waved his hand and asked his cousin to do it.
.
The call was from my aunt, saying that their car broke down halfway. They were still about ten miles away from the market in Qinglong Town. It was getting dark. They didn’t pick up the village in front of them or shops in the back. There were many pedestrians on the road.
Master, let Li Qingyun think of a way to see if there is anyone in the village who can repair cars. If there is no one who can repair cars, ask someone to hitch a few mules or donkeys and pull the car to Lijiazhai first.
When Li Qingyun heard this, he became anxious and looked at the time. It was past four in the afternoon, and the sky was a little overcast and gray. It felt like it was getting dark soon.
What kind of donkey are you trying to hit? I already have a car. With the powerful power of the Dodge Ram Longhorn, it won't be a problem to pull my cousin's off-road vehicle.
He told his aunt not to worry and he would take the people there right away.
After hanging up the phone, I saw Mao Dan and his cousin Li Qinghu pushing a cart to deliver wine. Behind them was a strong and honest young man who looked familiar, but I couldn't remember his name at the moment.
"Fuwa, you got married so fast. I don't even have a partner until now. I heard that Mao Dan borrowed your car to go on a blind date and let the woman take a high look. Good things will happen soon. After a few seconds
When we go on a blind date, can you lend me your car?" The honest young man didn't show up and mentioned borrowing the car as soon as we met.
Maodan smiled proudly. Seeing some confusion on Li Qingyun's face, he immediately introduced: "Brother Fuwa, this is a big cow. He has been working in other places for several years and hasn't come back. If his mother hadn't been ill this year, he seems to still want to work here."
I’m celebrating the New Year out of town.”
"It's your boy. I haven't seen you in the past few years. I thought you died outside. I heard from your mother that you drive for others on the construction site? You can drive trucks, excavators, and tractors. After driving for so many years, you know how to repair.
No?" Li Qingyun said, and stepped forward to punch Da Niu several times. Da Niu just laughed and did not hide.
"I can repair tractors, and I can repair minor problems with other vehicles. If I can't repair major problems, I have to find a specialized master to repair them." Daniel replied.
When Li Qingyun heard this, he immediately took his hand and ran to the parking place: "Let's go, let's follow me. My cousin's car was damaged halfway. Please help me take a look. If it really can't be repaired, help me."
Let’s tow his car back. By the way, do we need a towing rope? Do you think an ordinary rope will work?” (To be continued)
