One of the big boys

Li Xiaoqing took Zhang Bao to ask someone to help him make the quilt and sew new clothes.In order to show the importance to Brother Ming, five sets of new clothes were prepared for each season in spring, summer, autumn and winter.He also took Er Zhuang to the silver jewelry store to pick out a hairpin.The head of the hairpin is carved in the shape of auspicious clouds. It has one or two layers, plus five hundred wen for manual work.Zhang Bao asked Er Zhuang to pay for the money himself.

I went to a fortune teller and said that the second day of next month will be a good day, so I only need five days of preparation time.Everything has to be held fast.

Fortunately, San Zhuang came back the day before the wedding.Before San Zhuang had time to show off what he had seen and heard to his family, he found that happy characters were posted inside and outside the house. "Brother, here, whose wedding is going to be held at home?"

Da Zhuang snorted, "Your second brother. Thanks to you coming back today, I will invite you to drink at the table tomorrow. Your sister-in-law got someone to make you a new dress, go try it on. If you are tired, take a rest early If you don’t lose weight after going out for more than ten days, you must not suffer.

Before he left, he hadn't heard from his family that he was going to have a wedding for his second brother, so why so fast.After finding his sister-in-law and reporting her safety, Zhang Bao pulled out new clothes for him, "Take a bath at night and try again. You didn't suffer outside, did you?"

"What a pain. Eat and sleep well every day." San Zhuang took out his purse, "I only spent one tael of silver, and this is the rest of the money."

"Take the rest by yourself. If you're not hungry, go find some snacks in the kitchen and go to bed early at night, and go pick up your relatives with your second brother tomorrow morning."

"Why are you in such a hurry? I haven't heard from you when I left."

Zhang Bao rolled his eyes, "You can ask your second brother about this matter. I am busy looking for land to play by myself, and when I am done with this work, tell me about Xia Jincheng, I have never been there. "

"Sure, then I'll go get something to eat first."

After working overtime, things were finally ready the day before the work.Ama Dashi bit off the last thread, "Oh, I can finally sleep well."

Zhang Bao doesn't know how to sew quilts. He usually talks by the side, "Sleep well, and come to my house for dinner tomorrow. Don't care if you're full."

Uncle Tai asked with a smile, "What are you cooking tomorrow?"

Zheng Zhuzi patted the jacket on his body, got up and folded the quilt, "They are all good dishes. Just wait."

The next morning, before dawn, Zhang Bao and Da Zhuang got up.Before he could wash up, someone knocked on the door. It was Butcher Luo who brought the meat.Killed a pig, a sheep.Da Zhuang asks Luo Butcher to stay for a wedding wine.

"The wedding wine must be eaten. But I have to go back and change clothes. I have to wait for me to come before the banquet." Butcher Luo said goodbye to Da Zhuang, and returned to the town with his two sons.

It was still a little dark at this time, so I saw someone coming with a lantern.Mrs. Uncle and Mrs. Dafu came, and Mrs. Hao was still wrapped in the quilt in Mrs. Dafu's arms.

Brother Lin took Brother Hao, "Brother Bao, Brother Hao hasn't woken up yet, can I sleep with him when he is a hundred years old?"

Zhang Bao hurriedly led the way, "Hurry up and get in the house, it's cold in the morning, don't freeze our Brother Hao."

Two torches were lit in the yard, and the strong man chopped the meat into small pieces with a knife.My brother was busy making a fire and boiling water.

The sky had just turned white, San Zhuang rubbed his eyes and went downstairs, the noise in the yard made him unable to sleep.Look again, good guy, there are many people in the village.

Zhang Bao chased him away, "Why do you wake up so early, you go back to sleep. When your second brother wakes up, go pick up the bride with your second brother. Replenish your energy and maintain a good mental state."

San Zhuang turned around amusedly, "Sister-in-law, I went to bed early last night and was refreshed. Do you need any help?"

Zhang Bao still chased him away, "No, no. There are so many people here to help, I don't need you." There were so many people in the village to help, but even he couldn't find anything to do. "Remember to call your second brother to get up later. You go up and dress up first."

Er Zhuang went downstairs in a new dress, his heart was full of joy, he was so excited that he didn't sleep until midnight last night.When the time came, a group of people went to the town bragging, and a total of five donkey carts were gathered in the village, and they all went to pick up the bride.

Wang Tian took Brother Ming's hand and carefully told him how to live in the future.Li Dahe didn't say a word at the side, but if you look carefully, you will find that his eyes are a little red.Angkor rubbed his stomach and took out the wedding gift for Ming Geer, which was a silver bracelet.

Hearing the sound of blowing and blowing outside, the neighbor Jin Geer trotted and knocked on the door, "The team to pick up the bride is here."

The dowry was carried one by one onto the donkey cart to welcome the relatives, and San Zhuang was busy distributing wedding candies to the onlookers.After the dowry of the two donkey carts was lifted, Li Zhou limped and carried the only elder brother out of the house.His lame leg hit the ground, and another person was carried on his back. Both of them were a little swaying, and Li Dahe was protecting him.Carrying Brother Ming into the sedan chair, Li Zhou quickly stuffed Brother Ming with a purse, and whispered, "Brother gave you money from your own house.".Brother Ming in the sedan chair was stunned for a moment, then slowly opened the purse, there were five taels of silver in it.Originally a little bit reluctant to be magnified, afraid of being heard by people outside, Brother Ming could only bite his lip and cry silently.

Someone yelled to raise the sedan chair, and the bearer slowly lifted the sedan chair.The suona sounded a happy tone again.

There were twenty tables set up in and out of the yard, and the tables were full of hot meat dishes.Zhang Bao really paid for this dish, a pig and a sheep cost 12 taels of silver.As soon as the firecrackers sounded, everyone clamored and started grabbing food.Er Zhuang toasted at the table, and when Li Zhou was toasted, Li Zhou held people back and refused to let him go, and took the young man from Li's village to pour wine for Er Zhuang.Li Dahe couldn't stand it any longer, and wanted to stop him, but was stopped by Zhang Bao, "Uncle, don't worry about it, let Brother Zhou pour it, Er Zhuang should."

After being poured by Li Zhou, Er Zhuang was carried back to the new house by Da Zhuang and San Zhuang before noon.Brother Ming was shocked when he saw that Er Zhuang was so drunk, Da Zhuang threw Er Zhuang on the bed, "Don't be afraid, it's okay if you drink too much. If Brother Ming is tired, go to bed and rest. You come to deliver the food."

Adults eat meat and grab vegetables, and children also eat.Today I made a lot of small meat wontons, Xiaohua cooked them all, and the children squatted beside the pot.When the wontons are cooked, hold the bowl and squeeze around, hoping to be served in the first bowl.

After finishing the food, Zhang Bao stood directly on the table and told the village master a story about the clan hero Qi Jiguang fighting against the Japanese.When it came to the wonderful part, there was applause from the whole courtyard.

When it was almost time for dinner, the people in the yard dispersed.There was not a lot of meat left, so Zhang Bao still insisted on asking each family to bring some meat back.Just that palm-sized meat is enough for everyone to fry up tomorrow.

Brother Ming went to bed early without eating dinner, and woke up early in the morning, getting up at dawn.Er Zhuang was still sleeping, and he didn't wake up after shaking him twice. He really drank too much yesterday.Hearing movement downstairs, Brother Ming went downstairs wearing the new clothes he brought from home.

Xiao Hua just served a bowl of millet porridge, "Brother Ming, come and eat, you must be hungry if you didn't eat last night."

The days of living in the new home start with a bowl of millet porridge.
