Traveling through books in the 70s: The group favors the Wang family’s little koi carp

"O sea!"

After Zhu Xiufen left, Old Shen called for his son.

Shen Dahai turned around and entered the room: "Dad, what's wrong?"

Old Man Shen: "Move out for me. I'm ready to get married now. He is our eldest grandson. Why do I have to show my face?"

Shen Dahai was a little hesitant: "Dad, you didn't show up before Youpeng and Youwen got married. It's only been so long. You went out to get married. How can you let outsiders see it?"

The most important thing is that he is afraid that the fourth child will get involved.

Finally, the relationship between the two families is no longer so life-and-death, and they are in a state of not disturbing each other.

If he made the fourth child anxious again, he would not dare to confront the fourth child now.

How could Old Shen not see what his eldest son was thinking?

He didn't dare to talk about the other sons. He taught his eldest son step by step. He could guess what the eldest son wanted to say when he opened his mouth.

Even if you think about it with your knees, you know what you are worried about.

Forget it, I have been heartbroken too many times. The old man no longer has any expectations for his sons.

"Take me out. I've changed my clothes. You don't have to worry about Jiangzi picking problems. Last time Youpeng and Youwen got married, I talked to your stepmother and asked if I should come forward."

"Your stepmother told me not to cause such a scene. She said it would be bad luck for me to show up."

So it's not that he treats his grandchildren differently, it's that they simply don't want to see him on their big day.

Old Shen was annoyed: "Are you relieved this time? Are you afraid that Jiangzi will be angry?"

Shen Dahai didn't know that there was something going on inside. After hearing what the old man said, his expression was stern: "Dad, you see that you have a bad temper. I didn't mean that."

"Okay, I won't say anything more. Just wait, I'll find two people to carry you out. We can also enjoy some sunshine."

……

"Hey, the old man is out?"

"My eldest grandson is very happy about getting married and is in good spirits."

"You guys know nothing. In the old society, this was called a happy event! This makes the grandson's happy event come true, but it doesn't make the illness go away."

"Don't say this nonsense. It's just a joke. You don't have a good mouth..."

Everyone in the courtyard laughed and laughed when they saw Old Shen being carried out.

When it comes to Old Shen's reputation... Needless to say, it's stinky to the wind.

But unfortunately, his age is hanging here.

Several times, it was rumored in the village that the old man of the Shen family almost died, but he managed to survive by relying on his own life.

Now that we have reached this point, the villagers want to compare Zhen'er with an old man who has one foot in the coffin, and criticize whether the old man has lived with a clear conscience in his life... Isn't that nonsense?

Who has free time?

Especially today is a great day for Old Shen's eldest grandson. No matter how 'hateful' he is, he would not choose today to make Old Shen angry.

If something happened to Old Shen, he would be irritated to death on the spot.

Regardless of whether it is justified or not, you will have to be spit on by others behind your back from now on.

Old Shen has not seen so many outsiders for a long time, especially everyone who is kind to him.

There was no ignoring him or looking down on him as he expected.

I was happy in my heart, and my face was obviously brighter.

Shen Dahai was also happy to see it. He didn't know if it was because of his age, but maybe it was because of the vicissitudes of his heart, and he wanted to cry at the slightest touch.

Just now he saw that the third child didn't hold a grudge and was busy helping him, which made him feel bad.

I want to cry.

Looking at his father's rare good spirit now, he thinks that today is the day when his only son will be considered an adult.

For them, if you get married, you are considered an adult.

And just thinking about his own son becoming an adult, Shen Dahai felt both humble and emotional.

I feel complicated and want to cry again.

Although he is not very kind to his only son, after all, his son has grown up to be a useless person. What father would be happy with that?

But no matter what, this is his only son.

Still care.

He has grown up since he was so young and is now old enough to marry a wife. He is getting older and older. When his son has a baby in two years, he will be called grandpa... Time is not forgiving.

While turning around, Shen Dahai secretly wiped the corners of his eyes with his back to the person.

It happened that Zhu Xiufen came over at this time to ask him for advice. Seeing that he didn't know what to do here, her eyes were red.

Zhu Xiufen was speechless: "Dahai, what's wrong with you today? Do your eyes hurt?"

Shen Dahai felt embarrassed when he secretly cried and let his wife watch him, and his tone was hard to avoid: "Go, go, why are you staring at me all day long?"

"There are so many things to do. The tables in the courtyard haven't been set yet. What's left? Don't we have to go to the production team next door to pick up the new wife? Who will go with him? What is he doing?"

This person just fell out of favor.

With so many people here, it wouldn't be shameful for someone to make a fuss at the door.

Zhu Xiufen winked at Shen Dahai as if her eyelids were cramped, and whispered: "Please be quiet, let's go into the room and talk."

Shen Dahai: "Come on, if you have anything to do, just say it here. Why don't you go into the house and there are so many people watching? Is it okay for us to go in and close the door?"

Zhu Xiufen: "..." These words sounded breathless and reasonable.

Looking at the sun, she didn't argue with Shen Dahai. She liked to go into the house but not in the house. Anyway, if people heard about it, she would not be the only one to be embarrassed.

Zhu Xiufen: "I came to you just to talk about what I have enough time for."

"We're not waiting for the wedding. I don't dare to borrow a bicycle from the fourth room, so I just borrowed a cart. I find it embarrassing, so I have to go to the party secretary's house to borrow an ox cart."

"There is another one. There is no boy in the village who is willing to accompany Youyu to the production team next door to pick up the bride, so Xiaobao agreed. But with Youyu and only two of us, how can we accept this? Aren't we going to make people laugh?"

One bad thing happened one after another, and the circles in Shen Dahai's eyes became even redder.

It's different from the red color just now. His eye circles and eyeballs are now red. It's just red from anger!

Gritting his back molars, he squeezed out the words through his teeth: "He wants a bullock cart. Why doesn't he borrow it himself?"

Take a thousand steps back.

"He thinks scooters are embarrassing but bicycles are not. Why doesn't he dare to go to the fourth house to borrow one?"

She didn't dare to offend the fourth family, but she also wanted to be proud and didn't want a cart. She thought the old branch secretary was easy to talk to, so she forced the mother-in-law to go to the old branch secretary's house to borrow a cart as a favor.

Shen Dahai didn't even know how to scold this useless son!

Just now I thought my son had grown up and become an adult, but in the end I found out that he was still a coward and a loser.

Shen Dahai gasped: "I will teach you a lesson for the last time!"

When Zhu Xiufen saw that he was about to turn around and beat her son, she immediately pulled him back with a headache: "Dahai, I know you are angry, and I am angry too, but you also said that with so many people watching, please pay attention to the impact. "

No one would choose this time to beat his son.

I don't want my face anymore.

Zhu Xiufen whispered: "It's getting late, let's get things straightened out first. When will you stop teaching me?"

"I won't stop you from beating you three times a day after Youyu gets married, but no matter what you say today, do we have to make this wedding a decent one?"

In Zhu Xiufen's view, this was her first 'turnaround' in the village.

This is the first serious banquet held as the host.

Unlike when Hua'er got married, although there were people coming from the village and it seemed quite lively, her family knew about her own affairs.

Zhu Xiufen knew in her heart that those were all false.

There were only a few tables set up that day when Hua'er went out, and most of them came because they wanted to make friends with the fourth room. They didn't realize that at the table, the villagers were surrounding Mrs. Cai and the fourth room to compliment them.

She was eating her daughter's wedding banquet, but she seriously took their big house into consideration, and not many people congratulated her and Dahai.

Most of the time she would talk to people with a smile, but they would ignore her and she would put her hot face on their cold buttocks.

Not to mention the fact that Song Dani was arrested because of Shen Youcang and came back to destroy the place and beg the fourth room for help. She was so unlucky that she didn't even want to mention it.

But this time is different.

This time it was a serious affair, with her and Dahai as the hosts, and her eldest son getting married.

As long as she manages this time well and doesn't let anything go wrong, when her son and his wife toast, and the villagers accept the glass of wine, it will be a chance for her family to ease their relationship with the villagers.

It would be false to say that the general environment of this era does not favor boys over girls. At this time, it is not like the concepts of later generations that are more equal and open.

Later generations may feel that there is no difference whether a daughter or a son gets married.

But at this time, especially in this kind of remote rural area...it means something different.

This is the difference between Shen Hua'er and Shen Youyu's wedding banquets.

When Shen Hua'er went out to hold a banquet, even if the villagers came, it wouldn't mean anything.

Shen Dahai and Zhu Xiufen still ignored them when they should.

After finishing the meal, he wiped his mouth and left, and it was normal for him to have no interaction after that.

But Shen Youyu is different. To the people in the village, the meaning of an only son is different for a family. Coming over to drink this wedding wine is equivalent to resuming contact between your family and the Shen family.

That's why it's so difficult to invite this 'guest', Shen Sanhe has to come forward to invite it.

Shen Sanhe has a lot of face now, and if he comes forward, he can at least make others think more carefully and know that there is value in easing the relationship with Shen Dajia.
