The next morning, before it was bright, the suona team invited by Mao Dan's family was already playing. Along with the festive music, people's mood was also happy.
"Bang! Bang! Bang!" The single-shot firecracker sounded, indicating that the host was ready and urged everyone to go over to help or watch the fun.
The helpers we wanted to hire had already been discussed last night. Therefore, the old and young men who were close to or nearly six years old got up one after another, wiped their faces and ran to help. Li Qingyun spoke, and they were from the same village, and no one was here.
Sometimes I am lazy and playful.
Mao Dan’s mother died early, leaving only a lame father who worked hard to raise Mao Dan into adulthood. It has not been easy to survive these years. Whenever big things happen, Mao Dan’s father can’t help. Without the men in the village, Mao Dan’s mother died early.
Help me, an event as big as a wedding can't be so lively.
When Li Qingyun heard the sound of cannons, he got up quickly, washed up, packed up, and prepared to go over to help. His wife, Yang Yunu, had a big belly and was just lazy. She made a good promise last night and said that she would go watch the fun together.
I got up, but I couldn't get up with my eyes squinted. I said I wanted to sleep again.
Li Qingyun had no choice but to let her continue to sleep, and he couldn't go late. But as soon as he opened the door, he heard his sister-in-law in pajamas standing at the door calling him, asking him to wait for a while, and insisted on watching the fun with him.
Li Qingyun shrugged and had to ask her to get ready quickly. It's not like she didn't know where Mao Dan's house was. She could just go there by herself. Why did she have to wait for her by herself? Working with a woman would be troublesome.
While waiting for his sister-in-law to wash up, Li Qingyun ran to the doghouse and poured some space spring water for them. He wanted to feed the two puppies, but the two big dogs' eyes lit up when they smelled the space spring water.
He robbed them all without giving the puppy a chance to swallow them.
Li Qingyun had no choice but to throw out two space fish to attract the attention of gold coins and copper coins. Then when they were eating, he poured out some space spring water and fed it to the two puppies to improve their physique.
"Brother-in-law, let's go." Sister-in-law Yang Yudie didn't let Li Qingyun wait too long. She had just finished feeding the two big dogs and two puppies. She changed into a beautiful red and black striped dress, and she looked very elegant.
Excellent run.
Li Qingyun's eyes lit up when he saw it, but he was rude and joked: "Why are you dressing up so beautifully? You are trying to make the bride less popular, and you are deliberately causing trouble for her, right?"
"Haha, brother-in-law also admits that I am beautiful, right?" Yang Yudie laughed proudly and wanted to hold her brother-in-law's arm and go out, but when she thought that it was her sister's patent, she took her hand back and said, "It's a pity that sister has a big belly and
I'm sleeping in. If our sisters show up together, the effect will definitely be more sensational. But I'm just trying to be familiar today, not looking for trouble, because I have to work in the village and I have to let everyone in Lijiazhai know. I am you Li Qingyun
My sister-in-law."
"Haha, that's easy to say. Your sister is not around, and people who don't know better would think you are my new mistress." Li Qingyun said angrily.
"Go to hell! You just have fun having a mistress. You still want to find a mistress. Aren't you afraid of being stabbed in the spine?" Yang Yudie was embarrassed and hit Li Qingyun on the shoulder a few times. It was gentle, but a little bit.
The meaning of affection and teasing.
Li Qingyun coughed a few times and had already reached the entrance of the village. There were more and more pedestrians in the village. He did not dare to get too close to his sister-in-law. He had to stay away from a distance and say hello to the villagers he met.
Today's wedding was officiated by the village accountant, Fourth Grandpa, and some chores were arranged by him. When Li Qingyun arrived at Mao Dan's house with his sister-in-law, most of the chores had already been assigned.
Li Yuncong, the boss, specially came back from the town police station to set off firecrackers for Mao Dan. There are particularities in setting off firecrackers. When going out to pick up a bride, you should set off big firecrackers. When you encounter mountains and bridges on the road, you should set off small or scattered firecrackers. When you arrive at the bride's house, you should also set off a plate.
When picking up the bride and leaving, she has to set off cannons... In short, this job is not light, and she will even arrange an assistant to set off the cannons.
In addition to the fleet hired from the city, Li Qingyun's car also needs to find a driver. But for ordinary cars, a C1 driver's license is enough. There are many people who know how to drive, so there is no need to worry.
There were several farm workers who were strong and strong, so the fourth grandfather arranged for them to carry the dowry. Since Mao Dan gave a lot of gifts, the woman was not stingy and gave her a lot of dowry, including a sofa, a TV, a washing machine, a large wardrobe, and a dressing room.
Taiwan, more than a dozen quilts... The other party had already warned that it would take at least three small trucks to pull it all.
Li Qingyun could hardly get involved and could only help put the word "Happy" on the wall. Sister-in-law Yang Yudie was dressed beautifully and charmingly. As expected, she was the center of attention wherever she went. There were countless men who peeked at her. It didn't matter.
Don't make her proud.
Li Yuncong, the one who set off firecrackers, wanted to come over and help. However, the fourth grandfather shouted at this time, saying that it was getting late, and asked him to start setting off the firecrackers and prepare to set off. He had no choice but to call Daniel and said that he was going to move the firecrackers into the house.
Firecrackers and fireworks, ready to do his serious business.
But at this time, Li Qingyun saw that his wife Yang Yunu had finally arrived, with a big belly and yawning. Li Qingyun and sister-in-law Yang Yudie hurriedly ran over and told her that firecrackers were about to be set off and asked her to cover her ears so as not to scare her.
Take care of yourself and your children.
Yang Yunu curled her lips and told them very proudly that she was not afraid of this. If she could not scare herself, she would not scare the children.
Hearing what his wife said, Li Qingyun felt relieved.
At this time, Li Yuncong and Daniel had already entered the house and carried out a strange-looking thing, which looked like firecrackers and fireworks, and was beautifully packaged.
"This...is this a firecracker? Why does it look like this? Can it be set off?" A villager asked in surprise.
Another villager nodded, then immediately shook his head and said, "I don't know who this guy is. It looks like a big turntable. It looks like fireworks and firecrackers. But how can you set off such a thing during a wedding?"
"
The villagers nearby were surprised and talked a lot, staring blankly at the nondescript thing in front of them.
"This is a firecracker. It's just higher than ordinary firecrackers. There aren't many on the market. Brother Fuwa bought these from the city. Don't be stunned. Get out of the way. Let's light them first." Li Yuncong said excitedly.
He shouted, in fact, he didn’t let this thing go, and he didn’t know if it looked good or not.
After lighting up the firecracker, Li Yuncong ran away quickly. The firecracker made a "chacha" sound and spread rapidly, probably because he was worried about something happening. The primer of this kind of firecracker is longer than ordinary firecrackers, so you don't have to worry about blowing yourself up.
.
All the nearby villagers were eagerly waiting to see the effect of this novel firecracker.
"Brother-in-law, what is this?" At this time, Li Qingyun's sister-in-law Yang Yudie came, and she came with her sister Yang Yunu.
Yang Yunu saw the thing on the ground and asked: "Husband, this thing is the reason why you urged me to come here quickly? The village has never let it go before, so nothing will happen to it, right?"
"Uh..." Li Qingyun didn't know how to get back and said, "Don't worry, nothing will happen to you as long as I'm here."
"Look, the firecrackers are going off!" One of the villagers in the crowd took the lead in shouting. This roar attracted everyone's attention, including Li Qingyun, Yang Yunu and his sister Yang Yudie.
I saw the firecrackers on the ground spinning rapidly, and the flower paper wrapping the firecrackers fell off layer by layer, revealing what was inside. The entire turntable-like firecrackers, with a circle of tightly packed firecrackers inside, were all facing towards
In the sky, the guides are also pointing upward.
"Whoosh whoosh...!"
After the firecrackers were lit, they spun faster. Then I heard countless primers being lit. All the firecrackers were ignited, and sparks flew everywhere.
"Bang!"
As one thunder firecracker made a sound, other thunder firecrackers seemed to be detonated, each one making a loud noise. All the thunder firecrackers flew upwards, emitting pillars of fire of different colors.
"Wow, sister, look, these firecrackers are so beautiful! They are flying around like a fire dragon..." Yang Yudie was as excited as a child, shouting.
"I saw it. It's really beautiful. I didn't expect it to be so beautiful in broad daylight." Yang Yunu was indeed not afraid of these loud noises, and was even attracted by the beautiful fireworks in front of him.
Li Qingyun didn't expect that these firecrackers would be so beautiful. He went to the city to do errands the day before yesterday. He just remembered this incident and bought some cat eggs. The price was indeed not cheap. The other villagers were all fascinated, and they couldn't imagine the firecrackers.
Some of them are so beautiful, and some even took out their mobile phones to quickly take pictures of this rare side.
After the sound of firecrackers disappeared for a while, everyone recovered from the novel shock and remembered the business to be done again.
"Maodan, come out quickly, get ready to go! After you get your wife back, you can enter the bridal chamber." Li Qingyun shouted with a smile on his face and a little joking tone.
"Hey, it's coming." Mao Dan's voice came from the house. When he ran out, he had changed into a brand new suit and had a bright red rose on his chest.
It is said that a man depends on his clothes and a horse depends on its saddle. This is true.
Apart from being a bit dark and thin, Mao Dan actually looks pretty good. However, years of hard work has made him look a bit mature and vicissitudes of life. Otherwise, his fiancée would not have taken a liking to him when they first met.
"Not bad, handsome and energetic, like a groom. Let's go and pick up the bride." Li Qingyun nodded with satisfaction.
However, just as he was about to leave, Daniel, who was in charge of driving, came over and said hesitantly: "Brother Fuwa, I can't drive this car. The gears on it are too complicated... I've actually never driven an automatic car.
…”
"Can't you drive it?" Li Qingyun was a little confused by the driver's words, and said, "I can drive a large truck, but I can't drive a BMW with automatic transmission? What a great opportunity in front of me, I won't learn if I haven't driven it before!"
Daniel blushed in embarrassment and quickly shook his head and explained: "No, it's not. The main reason is that this BMW x6 is too, too expensive. If something happens to me, I, I can't afford to pay for it."
Li Qingyun was dumbfounded by Daniel's words, and it took him a long time to do it. It turned out to be because of this. But it is also true that a BMW x6 worth more than one million yuan is not expensive to do a small repair. Even if he explained that he would not be compensated,
Daniel is also under a lot of pressure. All Daniels are like this, and other people probably have a similar mentality and dare not drive this BMW.
"What should we do? The agreed auspicious time is coming soon, what should we do if we can't get to the place?" Mao Dan was a little anxious. What rural people pay attention to is an auspicious day in the zodiac for good luck. Once the time passes, it will be
Trouble.
Li Qingyun thought for a moment and smiled bitterly: "Okay, I'll do it myself! Today, I will be your driver and go with you to pick up the bride."
As soon as Li Qingyun's words came out, Mao Dan became anxious and hurriedly said: "Well, how can this be done? Brother Fuwa, you have already helped me enough, how can you be burdened with being my driver?"
Li Qingyun waved his hand and said domineeringly: "If a family doesn't speak two languages, don't waste time. Let's go and get in the car!"
"Yes, Mao Dan, your Fuwa brother is fine anyway, so let him be your driver to pick up your wife. Come on, don't waste your precious time." Yang Yunu urged from the side.
Mao Dan could tell that Li Qingyun and Yang Yunu were really doing it for their own good, and said these words to let him pick up his wife as soon as possible. If he were to be the mother-in-law again, he would be betraying their good intentions.
"Okay! Then I will enjoy the treatment of the boss for once and let Brother Fuwa drive for me." Maodan was excited and grateful. Seeing that Li Qingyun and his wife did not regard themselves as outsiders, they simply relaxed and joked.
The sound of the suona sounded again, with a white BMW
Jiazhai, rushing towards Wanglou Village in the south of the market town. (To be continued...)
