Rebirth of the Flying Era

Chapter 482 Marriage

On Saturday night, Du Fei and Zhu Ting took leave.

On Sunday morning, just after dawn, several people rode their cars to Jiajia Village in the western suburbs.

This place is about twenty kilometers away from the city. Fortunately, there are roads, so it's not difficult to get there.

If you hurry up and ride a bicycle, two hours is enough for you to go back and forth.

Jiajia Village has a large population and is a large village nearby. Most of the people's surname is Jia.

Du Fei and his group were all young and strong men. They knew the day before that they would have to travel a long way to pick up their bride, so they were all trying to recharge their batteries.

I woke up in high spirits in the morning, and the weather was good, thanks to the beautiful weather.

A few people were riding bicycles, chatting and laughing, and arrived at Jiajia Village before they knew it.

The village has been prepared for this.

Jia Liying's father is also well-known in the village.

This time my daughter is getting married in the city again, and she must be in a glamorous manner, with lanterns and festoons hanging around her home.

Zhuzhu had been here several times before and was quite familiar with it.

After entering the village, follow the main road and go directly to the third house at the end of the village.

Inside the earthen wall, which is about a person high, is a large courtyard with one acre of land, and behind it are three large tile-roofed houses.

Looking at the noodles, it can be considered a first-class restaurant in the village.

If the people in the village had not been relatively conservative in their thinking, Jia Liying would not have been able to get Zhuzhu's turn given Jia Liying's conditions.

At this time, big red words of joy were posted inside and outside the Jia family's house.

Relatives and relatives in the village came to join in the fun, taking the opportunity to ask for wedding candies and smoke wedding cigarettes.

Du Fei shrank back and did not move forward.

For this reason, Zhuzhu was very embarrassed last night and went to his house to tell him.

Du Fei estimated that Zhu Zhu wouldn't have expected it. It was probably Jia Zhang who reminded him and told Du Fei not to move forward.

Originally, the groom was older, but he still looked older.

He's not even thirty yet, but he looks like he's thirty-five.

If you compare it with a guy like Du Fei, it will be even worse.

However, apart from Du Fei, the remaining three young men and Zhu Zhu's two apprentices all looked of average height.

Although Jiang Yongchun is good-looking, he is not tall and does not stand out.

Zhuzi is in high spirits on happy occasions. He is wearing a brand new gray tunic suit and shiny three-jointed leather shoes.

The oil on the head looks like it was licked by a calf.

When I entered the hospital, I didn't know what to do with my mouth wide open.

Fortunately, the Jia family is ready.

I invited a woman who knows her guests well, and according to the wedding procedures, what is the first step at her parents' house? What to do in the second step? They all gave clear instructions.

I quickly completed the procedure and was ready to pick up the bride, but I encountered a problem.

Although Zhu Zhu is a bit older, his job and conditions are really good. He has an urban household registration and eats commercial food.

Coupled with Jia Liying's appearance, Zhuzi's father-in-law was afraid that his daughter would be offended if she married her, so he gave her a sewing machine as a dowry!

Zhuzi is also a fool who is blessed by foolishness.

Seeing the sewing machine, not to mention the villagers from Jiajia Village, even those who came to pick up the bride, all looked at it warmly.

Although the sewing machine is good, it is big and heavy, so how to bring it back becomes a problem.

Originally, Zhuzi's father-in-law planned to borrow the brigade's donkey cart to pull him there.

But donkey carts can be slow and cannot keep up with bicycles.

If we just go with the donkey cart, we are afraid that we will miss the time and delay it until the afternoon.

If it is carried on a bicycle, a new sewing machine is very expensive, and it will be even more difficult to deal with if it really bumps around.

Finally, we will discuss it.

They could only let Zhuzhu and the others take the bride away first, followed closely by the donkey cart pulling the sewing machine.

Afterwards, the bride wore a red cloth coat and held a red cloth bundle in her hand, and sat on the back frame of the bicycle.

Du Fei and others followed behind, each carrying some dowry, and rode back on their cars.

It is different from when I came here with a light car and a fast speed.

Especially Zhu Zhu, who carried an extra person weighing more than a hundred pounds and was pregnant with a child.

Afraid of throwing his new wife, he rode even slower.

It was a long journey, and it was almost ten o'clock before we got back to the courtyard.

Since the morning, relatives and friends who know Xin'er have been coming and going one after another.

Jia and Zhang have made arrangements, and Qin Huairou will be responsible for receiving everyone at the steel rolling mill.

His sister He Yuyu is responsible for the distant relatives who live at home, and the rest is left to the uncle.

At the same time, the chef invited by Zhu Zhu, together with two waiters, set up a stove in the courtyard and prepared a banquet.

When Zhu Zhu, Du Fei and the others come back, everything will be ready.

This era is quite special. Marriage does not have as many rules as before liberation, nor is it as cumbersome as in later generations.

There are generally two styles:

One is more traditional. The bride comes in and worships the heaven, the earth, and the high hall, but there is no flower hijab or anything like that.

The other is not to worship heaven and earth, but to bow three times to the statues of great men.

Du Fei originally thought that Jia Zhang, who was responsible for this matter, must do the former.

Unexpectedly, this time Jia Zhang became fashionable.

Probably because there are really no elders in Zhuzhu's family.

Just invite the statue of the great man out and worship it three times.

Then there was a big banquet.

Although supplies were scarce in this era, Zhuzi worked in a large canteen and was a chef from two generations before and after him, so the meal must not be too bad.

Originally, we planned to open four tables, but later Jia Zhang calculated that three tables would be enough.

There are eight dishes on one table, four cold and four hot, plus a local chicken and cabbage soup.

The first table must be for the leaders from the factory.

Although Zhu Zhu's position in the factory is not high, he is still somewhat famous in the cafeteria.

The director and deputy director of his wedding cafeteria must come.

In addition, Qin Huairou had a conversation with Director Lu at work yesterday.

Knowing that the bride was a relative of Qin Huairou's family, Director Lu came over to take a look at her in the morning and presented her with a quilt.

Although he didn't stay for dinner, the chiefs of the department were here, and the leaders in the cafeteria had to give him face.

Let the first and second uncles accompany me. They are both from the factory, so it's easy to talk to them.

The second table consisted of relatives from Zhuzhu's family, plus a few respected elderly people nearby, accompanied by the third uncle.

The third table was occupied by Zhu Zhu, several social friends, and Du Fei, who had gone to pick up the bride, and they all sat at this table.

There are eleven or two people in one house, totaling more than thirty people.

The people who can serve at the table are all men. Originally, the fourth seat was reserved for women, but according to Jia Zhang, there are a bunch of old women who are not at home to take care of their children, so why are they drinking so much~

Wait to sit down at the table.

Except for Du Fei, the other three people were very tired.

A round trip of 40 kilometers, and you still have to carry things on your back, so Du Fei can act like a normal person.

The yard was buzzing with chaos. Before Du Fei had time to see who was on the table, he heard a "Hey" coming from the side: "Man, are you going to pick up the bride with Zhu Zhu?"

Du Fei turned around and saw that it was Mr. Qian. He smiled and clasped his fists: "Hey, Mr. Qian, you are here too~"

Third Master Qian laughed: "Zhuzi is marrying his wife, how could I not come? Today is a good day, let us gentlemen have a nice drink later."

At this time, sitting next to Mr. Qian, a thin and older little old man interrupted and asked: "Hey, old Qian, you know this little brother and you don't want to introduce him?"

Mr. Qian was stunned for a moment, then he remembered something and smiled teasingly: "Oh~ I forgot about my eldest niece. It's my fault."

After saying that, he introduced Du Fei: "Does Yanzimen know this Fifth Master Xiong..."

Du Fei responded: "Swallow Li San?"

Mr. Qian San said: "Yes, that's the Yanzimen! Li San should be Master Xiong's uncle according to his seniority."

"Fifth Master~ Nice to meet you, nice to meet you!" Du Fei bowed politely.

Third Master Qian introduced Du Fei again: "Master Fifth, this Comrade Du Fei is the leader of the street office. He is a seventh-level clerk at a young age and has a great future."

After meeting Du Fei at the car repair stall last time, Qian Sanye checked on Du Fei's situation again.

Mr. Xiong Wu is not in the system and has no idea about seventh-level clerks.

But it’s not hard to hear Mr. Qian’s tone, which is obviously worthy of boasting. He quickly stood up and stretched out his hand: “Hello, Comrade Du~”

Du Fei had no intention of shaking hands with Mr. Qian across the other side, but he took the initiative and didn't want to embarrass himself.

He stood up and shook hands with Mr. Xiong Wu.

When he took his hand back, he touched his wrist.

Fortunately, the watch is still there.

I heard that the people who come out of Yanzi Gate are all master thieves. Don't shake hands with me. If your watch is gone in the blink of an eye, you will lose money.

Not paying attention to Du Fei's little move, Xiong Wuye shook hands and asked enthusiastically: "Comrade Du, how old are you this year?"

Du Fei responded: "Twenty this year~"

Mr. Xiong's eyes lit up: "Isn't this a coincidence? Our sixth girl is just twenty this year. She is very beautiful and works in the First Light Bureau..."

Mr. Qian beside him was smiling, and several people at the table were also laughing.

Obviously they are all familiar with Mr. Xiong Wu and have already guessed it.

Du Fei didn't expect it.

No wonder Mr. Qian was smiling just now as if his aunt was here.

Du Fei hurriedly said: "Thank you for your love, but~ I already have a partner, so I can only thank you for your kindness."

Mr. Xiong frowned and suddenly lost interest in Du Fei. He shook his head and said, "That's such a pity."

At this time, Mr. Qian interjected: "Man, you really have someone! Don't look at Mr. Xiong like this. Those girls in their family are really beautiful."

Master Xiong suddenly became furious: "No~ Qian Laosan, what's wrong with me? I think back then I was also known as the Jade-faced Little White Dragon..."

As they were talking, it was announced that the banquet was officially open.

Du Fei was also hungry, so he immediately took out chopsticks and started eating.

Don't tell me, Zhu Zhu found this chef to be really good, at least on the same level as Zhu Zhu.

The wine on the table was also good.

It was the Zhuzhu trustee who specially bought the San Erguotou from Niulanshan Winery.

It costs 50 cents a pound and is put in a large plastic bucket. It looks like industrial methanol.

But when you drink it, the taste and aroma are quite good.

Zhu Zhu prepared a total of twenty kilograms today, and the group of people at the table must be able to take care of it.

After a while, Zhuzi came over with his new wife to toast.

When the bride came in just now, many people looked at her briefly, but only then did they see her up close.

Many people, without saying anything, still disapproved of Jia Liying's appearance.

After the toasts were over, Zhuzi stayed behind to accompany the guests.

Jia Liying returned home and entertained the female relatives who helped.

Although they were spared a banquet, the first aunt, second aunt, and third aunt were all busy with them, as well as Qin Huairou, Qin Jingrou, Aunt Jiang in the front yard, and Aunt Wang in the middle yard...

There were a lot of ingredients left over from the banquet, so they used the kitchen of Zhuzi's house and cooked some dishes to eat and drink.

Outside, we waited for three rounds of wine and five dishes.

Some people left early, most of the others were relatively close, and some were just greedy and drunken.

In comparison, Du Fei's table had the most people left.

After a few glasses of wine, a group of gentlemen got together and started talking casually.

A man who looked about the same age as Zhuzi had red cheeks and said with a smile: "I didn't expect that the grandson of Zhuzi didn't marry a wife in his thirties, and ended up opening a meat restaurant!"

Although there were curse words in his mouth, it could be heard that he had no ill intentions and was instead sincerely happy for Zhu Zhu.

Mr. Qian smiled and said, "Who says it's not the case? This means that the lucky ones don't have to worry..."

As he finished speaking, a high-pitched donkey brayed suddenly from the front yard.

When Du Fei heard this, he knew that Jia Liying's sewing machine had arrived.

Looking at the watch again, it's almost twelve o'clock.

The donkey cart is so slow!

After a short while, Zhu Zhu and his two apprentices moved the sewing machine in from the front yard.

Many people didn't know what was going on, but when they saw the big red cloth hanging on the sewing machine, they guessed it was the bride's dowry.

Qian Sanye was also surprised when he was halfway through speaking. He quickly asked Du Fei: "The woman is also giving away a sewing machine?"

He knew that Du Fei had gone to pick up the bride, so he must have known about it.

Du Fei smiled and said: "You didn't tell me, blessed people don't have to worry~"

"Hey ~ what a pillar!" Mr. Qian slapped his thigh, and everyone was quite envious.

These days, when a girl marries, she is given a sewing machine as a dowry.

Jia Liying has no mother-in-law, and her sister-in-law is also married.

Otherwise, with this sewing machine, I can make a living at home.

With this sewing machine, even if Jia Liying doesn't have a job, she can still sew and make repairs to supplement her family income.

In other words, the sewing machine is not a consumer product, but a productivity product.

Unfortunately, this sewing machine arrived a little late, and its sensational effect was compromised.

After the sewing machine was moved into the room, Zhu Zhu came over again carrying a wine glass.

Except for Du Fei, most of the people at this table were friends he knew from his martial arts training, unlike those colleagues and relatives.

After you have dealt with it over there, you will drink it to death over here.

Sure enough, as soon as this guy came over, he was immediately besieged. He drank half a catty of wine before taking a few bites of food.

It was Master Xiong who looked at it and then helped to smooth things over, allowing him to take a moment and eat a few bites of vegetables.

But Zhu Zhu was in high spirits during happy events, he laughed and said it was okay.

Then he asked: "Hey, Fifth Master, I haven't seen you in recent days. I heard that you took on a new apprentice years ago?"

Mr. Xiong Wu nodded with a smile: "I adopted a child named Zhou Changli. He is a good seedling, but it's a pity..."

Zhu Zhu was surprised and said: "What's a pity?"

Mr. Xiong Wu sighed: "This kid has suffered a lot since he was a child, and he has such an unruly and surly temper. I haven't thought about it now. I plan to sharpen his temper with basic skills first. If he can be sharpened, I will teach him his real skills. If he can sharpen his temper, If you don’t come out…”

"Zhou Changli~"

Du Fei was listening beside him, but his heart moved.
