Chapter 251 Xiaojun Wedding
If the gold powder box of the Tang Dynasty was made by the palace, then this antique is really worth a lot of money, and there is no problem in making it a family heirloom. But if it is made by the private sector, its historical value will be much inferior.
"Junior brother, do you really want to give it to me?"
Li Mo calmly took it from her hand and said: "There are conditions. I have bought the house in Kyoto, but it's a pity that you didn't take it to heart. It's a pity that such a good house is empty and no one lives in it.
"
Chen Feng was a little depressed. This emotional matter is not about buying Chinese cabbage. You can get it immediately wherever you say you want it.
During dinner in the evening, the family began to talk about Chen Xiaojun’s marriage the day after tomorrow.
"Junior brother, I still need to trouble you about this matter."
Li Mo was chewing on a piece of spicy pig's trotters. When he heard this, he put it down and said, "It's no trouble. I'll just drive to pick you up then. I don't have anything to do at home anyway."
"It's not that, it's like this. According to our customs, an elder needs to be there to lead the bride. It was originally arranged for an uncle from Xiaojun's family to go there, but when we played mahjong today, we discussed that you should replace him.
.”
The customs are different in every place. Li Mo can understand that, for example, there is a similar custom in the Jinling area. When the man gets married, he needs an elder to follow him. But he is only Chen Xiaojun's uncle. In terms of blood relationship, he really counts.
An elder who is not as good as Xiaojun.
Isn't it a bit inappropriate for him to come forward?
"Junior brother, you are a person who has seen a lot of things in the world, and you can control the situation. Now people in our ten miles and eight villages know something about you, especially when Xiang Yu's treasure was born, there was a big fuss on TV and the Internet.
When your father told me about this on the phone, there happened to be people from other villages nearby, and later this matter spread. You are the junior military master, so you are naturally qualified to replace your elders."
Li Mo glanced at his father who was drinking with his head down. He must have been showing off because he couldn't help but show off. He kept a low profile in such a large circle in Kyoto, but he didn't expect that in Chenjia Village, everyone would know about it.
"Uncle Junior, it's just you."
Chen Xiaojun also hopes that Li Mo will go.
"Okay, but I know the etiquette. Senior brother, you have to talk to me carefully."
"Then it's decided. There's another thing. Xiaojun and his partner were classmates in junior high school. Later, when the girl went to college, he didn't get good grades and joined the army, but he kept waiting for him. When we got engaged last year,
Our family's conditions are average, and the girl's parents don't ask for a penny in gifts. This year he came with you and asked you to take care of him. Now that he has money, we have discussed that we will bring a gift of 88,000 yuan and cigarettes when we get married the day after tomorrow.
Ten boxes each of wine, six pigs, and various small gifts."
"Do you need a small truck to carry so much stuff?"
"Yes, we have already booked a car."
"Dad, that's what I think. After the new year, we will go to Kyoto to live together. She is the only daughter of her father-in-law and mother-in-law. The two elders are not in good health, so I want to give them more money so that they don't have to worry about anything."
Chen Xiaojun said suddenly.
"Do you have that much money in your hand? Or I can chip in and come up with another 100,000 in cash." Chen Gaofeng felt that what his son said was reasonable. Both of his parents-in-law were junior high school teachers in the town. They were reasonable and the only one in the family.
They didn’t ask for any gift money when they married this precious woman. They just hope that they can treat their daughter well, so it’s natural to give her more gift money.”
"Yes, I still have over a million in savings in my card." Chen Xiaojun said in a low voice.
Chen Gaofeng was stunned for a moment, then looked at his son and then at Li Mo, who was chewing pig's trotters, and finally said: "After I get married, I will follow your junior uncle and work hard. Don't embarrass your junior uncle."
Chen Xiaojun nodded hurriedly.
"If you have money, you can decide how much to give."
The matter was settled, and the dinner table became lively again.
The third day.
On the day of Chen Xiaojun's wedding, three luxury cars were decorated with flowers and large happy words were affixed. As an elder, Li Mo followed Xiaojun to the bride's bride's house. He took over a brand new bamboo basket from Chen Gaofeng.
, inside are stacks of serially numbered 100-yuan red tickets, each stack worth 10,000 yuan, tied with a red ribbon and tied with a bow.
"Xiaojun, how many are there here?"
"Three hundred and eighty-eight thousand."
Li Mo put it on the passenger seat, smiled at Chen Xiaojun and said, "Those unmarried men in Murakami will probably hate you to death."
"My pleasure."
Li Mo started the car, and the firecrackers outside were already going off. The Rolls-Royce was at the front, followed by two Porsches, and a small truck at the back. The front section contained cigarettes and alcoholic beverages, and the back section contained six trucks.
Each of the slaughtered pigs is supported on a stand, and the pig's head is tied with red silk. From a distance, it looks really unique.
"Xiaojun, it's interesting to hold a wedding in the countryside. By the way, you can show me the way."
"If my uncle hadn't helped us, our wedding would have been very simple."
Chen Xiaojun's face was filled with a happy smile, today was a big event in his life.
After driving for about half an hour, the car turned onto another village road. Along the way, countless people went out to look at the row of luxury cars and trucks carrying small gifts.
"Xiaojun, are those people in front here to welcome the bride?"
Li Mo slowed down and saw through the car glass that there were many people standing on the road a hundred meters away, all wearing fireworks on their chests. There were also many villagers pointing and whispering, not knowing what they were talking about.
"Yes, that's my uncle and his son."
The car stopped two meters away. The group of people who were welcoming the bride looked puzzled and did not dare to come up to greet them. Chen Xiaojun got out of the car and trotted towards them and said a few words. The group of people who were welcoming the bride looked shocked and hurriedly separated the crowd to let the car go.
They continued to move forward, and then they started to jog, shouting as they ran, "The bride has arrived."
"Uncle Master, drive forward and you will be there at the first intersection. We had agreed that a car would come to pick up the bride, so we kept things simple, so when I saw three luxury cars and a small truck, I didn't dare to come up, for fear of
Get it wrong and make a joke.”
The car soon stopped on the avenue in front of a house, and immediately saw firecrackers outside starting to roar and smoke rising.
The villagers gathered around and pointed at the car.
After the firecrackers were over, Li Mo got out of the car, holding a basket of cash in his hand, which immediately aroused exclamations from the surrounding villagers.
A middle-aged couple came up to them. They were a little confused when they saw the brand-new stacks of hundred-dollar cash. There was no such link. Look at the three luxury cars and the truckload of small gifts. They had not talked about it before.
This part, this is really... really...
"Xiaojun, who is this?"
Li Mo is too young.
"This is my uncle, his name is Li Mo."
The couple looked at each other with shock on their faces. It turned out that he was the Li Mo that Chenjiacun had been rumored to have.
Next, Li Mo handed over the gift money to the girl's parents according to local etiquette. He had a gift list in his hand and shouted in front of everyone: "Three hundred and eighty-eight thousand in cash, ten boxes of cigarettes, ten boxes of wine, six pigs, each
There are a total of eighteen boxes of small planting gifts.”
It was definitely impossible not to feel dizzy. The girl's parents were a little nervous when they heard the gift list. They wiped their hands on their bodies, and it was okay to accept the gift, and it was okay not to accept it. In the end, it was the uncle who came forward to welcome the bride into the home.
Li Mo will not participate in the next process, that is done by Chen Xiaojun.
"Brother Li, please smoke."
His uncle stood next to Li Mo and handed him a cigarette. Li Mo knew that what he called him was correct. Although he was a few years older than his father, he represented Chen Gaofeng at the moment. The seniority was here.
.
"Thanks."
Li Mo took it politely, pointed at his throat, and didn't say that he didn't smoke. The uncle understood what he meant and lit one himself.
"Xiaojun is really promising. I'm so happy for my niece."
"He is young, practical and has a bright future."
"That's right. Xiaojun is lucky to follow you."
It was obvious that my uncle was trying to get close to him, and Li Mo kept dealing with it with a smile.
Not long after, his uncle's son walked out of the house carrying a woman in a red dress. The woman wore light makeup and was not pretty, but had good features.
"So fast?"
Li Mo had heard before that there was a custom of making a fuss when accepting a bride, which was to deliberately embarrass the man, and the fuss would last for a while. But he went out in just a few minutes, so Li Mo was a little surprised.
"They were all shocked and didn't dare to block the door intentionally."
"Then let's go."
The wedding car returns to Chenjiacun, which is another process. It takes about half an hour to get back to the house, and we have to have dinner at the woman's house at noon.
Chapter completed!
