Chapter 408 Engagement
In the evening, he didn't seem to have any feelings about his engagement tomorrow. He always felt that it was just a formality for outsiders to see.
I was video-chatting with Chen Xue when another message came from Yu Fake.
Yu Fake strongly invited him to go to the capital after the new year. According to him, a business as big as sesame and mung beans, he, a young man, couldn't always run away.
Zhao Qin knew that he was joking, but he also felt that it was time for him to take the initiative to come to the door. After all, the last time he called, the other party came all the way over.
I also heard that he was getting engaged tomorrow, and the other party asked him to take Chen Xue with him, since everyone knew him anyway.
He agreed, chatted for a few words, then turned off the computer and planned to sleep.
"Aqin, have you slept?"
As soon as the lights were turned off, Dad came back, obviously looking for something to do with him.
He had no choice but to turn on the light again, said yes, and he pushed the door open and entered.
"Have one?"
"I've brushed my teeth. Dad, if you want anything? If you want money, you can just take it yourself." Seeing that his father was hesitant to speak and even offered him a cigarette, he thought he was asking for money.
"I have Qian. The old lady told me about finding someone today. I heard that you all agreed."
Zhao Qin grinned, feeling embarrassed because of this, and nodded quickly, "This is a good thing. When you get older, we won't be able to be by your side every minute."
"Don't talk about this anymore. I have never been sorry to you three brothers and sisters in my life. I raised you so much that your eldest brother is so stupid that he can't read.
If you and your sister can read, I will continue to support you as long as you continue to read. Now your brother and sister are also married. I am a little poorer, but the things I do for them are no worse than others in the village.
Once you get married, my mission will be completely completed.
But I... I'm sorry for your mother. He has suffered with me all his life, and he left without enjoying any happiness in one day.
You and your brother have become successful, and I have also become a village official. Although life is getting better, there are some things that I can't do, and you are not allowed to mention them again in the future. "
Zhao Anguo's face was always facing the window. Zhao Qin couldn't see clearly, but he could hear that these words came from the bottom of his heart.
After finishing speaking, he threw the cigarette butt into the ashtray on the computer table. Without waiting for Zhao Qin to express his position again, he stood up and walked out and said, "Go to sleep."
Zhao Qin looked at the roof. He did not expect that his father would say such words tonight.
As a son, he didn't know what to say at that moment. Forget it, let's talk to his brother and sister-in-law tomorrow.
……
Early in the morning, Zhao Qin got up early as usual, and his father got up earlier than him. Anyway, he didn't see his father when he got up.
Before arriving at the new house, I saw that the eldest brother's house was already extremely busy.
Zhao Qin's new house is under construction, and besides, it's just an engagement, not a marriage, and it doesn't have to be done at his own house, so the discussion was held at his eldest brother's house early in the morning.
There was a red cloth hanging on the eaves of the door. Dozens of women were standing at the door, each talking about their own business.
Seeing this situation, Zhao Qin had the urge to run away. If he rushed in, his ears would probably be wet.
"Aqin, you look so handsome today."
"Aqin is handsome to begin with."
"Aqin, this is very sensible. Today you are engaged, you will get married next year, and you will have a son the year after that."
"You can't say for sure, I won't even accept it next year."
Everyone laughed, and then the topic got sidetracked. Someone's belly got bigger when they got married, and someone's son got a full year old after getting married.
Zhao Qin used this time to evacuate decisively and got into the backyard.
Everything that should be prepared was almost done. Everyone was waiting for the auspicious time to arrive. After a while, the old lady came over and began to divide the work among everyone. Who would carry the burden and who would carry the flower basket?
At this moment, Zhao Ping came in and found him, "Brother Cat, Zhu Zhu and the others are here. Our father is not familiar with them. You go and receive them."
After that, he stuffed him with another pack of Huazi, "Dad bought this. We won't be allowed to smoke cigarettes today."
Fault!
Zhao Qin took Hua Zi and opened it while walking outside. When he came outside, he really saw the old cat. There was a woman standing next to him, presumably his wife.
Lao Mao was chatting with Zhu Zhu and A Ce about something. Seeing him coming over, the three of them joked, "Hey, boss, you are so handsome today."
"Boss, you're wrong. You stand out from the crowd when you stand next to us. Why don't you change your clothes?" Ah Ce also joked.
Zhao Qin first signaled to Lao Mao. When the other party nodded, he greeted with a smile, "Sister-in-law, thank you for coming. Come in and have a cup of tea."
"You're welcome. Amao and I are here to help. If you need anything, just arrange it."
"It's all arranged. I can't even get involved myself. You don't have to do anything, just come in..."
After thinking about the group of women inside, he changed his mind decisively, "Forget it, let's go sit in the small square, the play will start soon."
After that, he took a few people over.
"Aqin, Brother Ping said you built a very big house, isn't it far?" Zhu Zhu asked.
"It's right next to it. Let's go and show you."
When they arrived at the place, several people were really surprised. They had heard that rich people lived in big houses, but this was the first time they had seen someone build such a big house, with nearly two acres of land. Everyone was dizzy just looking at it.
After staying here for a while, he took a few people to the small square. There were already a lot of people here, almost all old people and children, waiting for the show to start.
"Come with me later?" Zhao Qin asked.
"Okay, you didn't look at our clothes, we were all prepared deliberately."
Only then did Zhao Qin notice that they were all wearing blue clothes and black trousers today.
"Then take a break first. I'll call you when I want to leave."
"There's no need to make any announcements. We'll go there when we hear the sound of firecrackers."
After returning to the eldest brother's house, in a moment all the people who were close to him in the village came. Lao Zhu and Lao Liu, more than ten people, came. Ah He was chatting with them.
"Aqin, congratulations."
"Okay, you're here now, save some for lunch, and let's have a drink in the evening."
"It's a wedding banquet, even if you don't let us drink more."
Because they were so close, they set off late. It wasn’t until about 10 o’clock that the team officially set off. Ah He’s legs were weak, so Ajie took over the job of setting off the firecrackers.
When the firecrackers went off, relatives and friends who were sitting in the small square hurried over to follow the large army.
Because it was so close, no cars were arranged and everyone walked.
More than twenty minutes later, the large army arrived at Chen's house. As soon as people arrived, firecrackers went off. With the sound of firecrackers and the smoke of gunfire, everyone walked into the house.
They were all welcomed into the simply decorated backyard. Ah Chen was also here, helping to serve tea and water to everyone.
Zhao Qin went upstairs with a few load bearers. The woman wanted to check the gifts she had brought. All valuables such as red envelopes and gold were accepted.
As for other things, such as noodles, cigarettes, etc., all are accepted, but the pig legs are not allowed. They have to be cut in half and the pig's feet part is given as a return gift. Of course, there are also biscuits, red dates, dried longan and the like.
After these are done, everyone will go to the hotel that has been booked for dinner.
The Chen family is very particular, and someone even gives each guest a candy bag at the dining table.
After the meal, everyone went home, and Chen Xue, accompanied by her sister-in-law and sisters, followed them to Zhao Qin's house.
At home, as soon as they left, the troupe started.
When they came back, the troupe was still singing, and almost everyone in the village was attracted. Some sat directly on the flowing seats, and some brought benches from home.
Hearing the sound of firecrackers, some people came to the house again to see what the new couple looked like.
Although Chen Xue had been to the village, almost no one in the village had seen it. Many women in the village, seeing Zhao Qin's rise, wanted to introduce their daughters to him.
As a result, before she could take action, she actually heard that she was getting engaged.
