Chapter 209 The Bride

In the third update, please download pink txt.

***………*******

The carriage approached. It was a carriage with a shed. The person sitting in front of him was Erlang with a happy expression on his face.

Erlang got married yesterday. According to the old ceremony at Sanshiliyingzi, the next morning, the new daughter-in-law wanted to kowtow to her parents-in-law and tea. Lian Shouyi and He stayed in the town last night, but Mr. Lian and the old couple of Zhou were in the old house. So Erlang came back with his new wife this morning and kowtowed to Mr. Lian and Zhou.

Erlang drove the carriage, walked to the front of the breakfast shop, and stopped the carriage.

"Uncle Fourth, Aunt Fourth." Erlang greeted.

The curtain of the car was lifted from inside, and Lian Shouyi and He poked their heads out from inside, and then Zhao Xiu'e. It turned out that Lian Shouyi and He were also sitting in the carriage. The carriage was spacious, and the three of them were not crowded.

The bride Zhao Xiu'e was a little shy.

"It's cold outside, hurry up and drop the curtains of the car." Zhang and Lian Shouxin hurriedly said, "Dad and mother are waiting for you to get it, you can go back quickly."

"Okay, let's go back first. The fourth brother, you two are here too." Lian Shouyi waved at Lian Shouxin, then lowered the curtain of the car and asked Erlang to drive the car into the village.

"Whose carriage is quite grand," Zhang said, and hurried back to the shop, "Man'er, you guys go back first. Your father and I will come."

Lian Man'er was about to rush back to join in the fun, so he chased the back of the carriage and ran to the old house with Lian Ye'er and Xiaoqi. Wulang was more steadily and had to help Zhang clean up before he was willing to go back.

As soon as the carriage entered the village, a group of half-aged children seemed to suddenly emerge from the ground. They also followed Erlang's carriage happily, and some ran to the front of the carriage and looked backwards into the carriage. They were trying to see the bride.

Unfortunately, the curtains of the car were covered tightly, and they could not see anything.

Surrounded by these children, Erlang had to slow down the speed of the carriage.

When the carriage stopped at the gate of Lian’s house, they saw a group of children huddled on both sides of the gate, all of whom stretched their necks and stared at the carriage happily. They just waited for the bride to get off the car.

Sure enough, no matter which family has a marriage, it is a joyful festival for the children.

Even Shouyi and He got out of the car first. They scolded the children and asked them to walk away. The scolding people were not serious, and those who were scolded were laughing. No one could leave, but they stopped rushing forward. The people from the neighbors also walked out and stood at their doorstep to look here.

Erlang helped the bride Zhao Xiu'e get out of the car. When Zhao Xiu'e's feet landed on the ground, a little tip of her shoe appeared.

"What a pair of small feet!"

"Erlang's wife is so handsome!"

People watching from afar gave a sigh of praise. Someone from somewhere was a stingy wife trotted over. Before Erlang and Zhao Xiu'e could react, they reached out to lift Zhao Xiu'e's skirt.

Now everyone not only saw Zhao Xiu'e's legs, but also saw a piece of flowery trouser legs.

The wife praised her and left with a laugh.

Erlang and Zhao Xiu'e both had red faces. But the wife had no malice. Most of the new daughter-in-law in the village had to go through this time, and no one could be upset. Moreover, the more praise she received, the more face the new daughter-in-law and this family would be.

Someone came out of the yard, and Lian Shouyi asked Sanlang to pull the carriage into the yard to take care of him, and walked up the room with Erlang and Zhao Xiu'e. Lian Man'er, Lian Ye'er and Xiaoqi followed, and there were also bold and curious children who followed him.

When he went up the house, even the old man and Zhou clan had cleaned up, and Banban sat neatly on the kang. Under the ground, there were two straw mats. Erlang and Zhao Xiu'e entered the house, knelt on the mat, kowtowed to the old man and Zhou clan, calling him "Master, grandma".

"Get up quickly." Zhou said.

He helped Zhao Xiu'e stand up, and Erlang also got up.

Zhou took out two red seals that had been prepared in his arms and handed them to Zhao Xiu'e. This was a gift for the newlyweds, and some people commonly call this "change fee".

Then, He led Zhao Xiu'e to recognize people. First, they were elders, starting with Lian Shouren and Gu, then Lian Shouli, Zhao, and then Lian Xiu'er.

Zhao Xiu'e called people, and every time she could receive a red seal. The Lian family had no family and each room had no four rooms. The money in the red seal was naturally prepared by Zhou. Lian Man'er looked at the shape of the red seal in Zhao Xiu'e's hand and knew that it was filled with copper coins. Such a small red seal could hold very limited copper coins.

Lian’s family is not rich, so this red seal is just a form.

"Why haven't the old couple arrived yet? When I just passed by the shop, I asked them to come quickly." Lian Shouyi said.

"See all the same generation, Man'er, go and urge your father and your mother." The old man said.

People of the same generation met with peace of mind, and did not change their words and pay red seals.

Lian Man'er went to call Lian Shouxin and Zhang, and then walked to the gate and met him, and came back together.

"Mom, grandma, grandma, grandma, grandma, and the third aunt have all made a change of words. Are we ready?" Lian Man'er asked.

"I've prepared a long time ago. Your grandfather and your grandmother gave instructions yesterday." Zhang took out a red seal and looked at Lian Man'er.

"That's good." Lian Man'er felt relieved.

When Lian Shouxin and Zhang entered the house, Zhao Xiu'e was already sitting on the edge of the kang. When she saw them coming in, she did not get up immediately.

"This is your fourth uncle and fourth aunt." He said with a smile.

Zhao Xiu'e hurriedly stood up and kowtowed to Erlang to Lian Shouxin and Zhang again. Zhang helped Zhao Xiu'e up and stuffed Hong Feng into her hands.

Everyone in the room looked for a place to sit, and Zhao Xiu'e sat next to Zhou. Everyone spoke in words, mostly asking Zhao Xiu'e how it was. Zhao Xiu'e seemed to be not talking much, or her new wife had a tender face and her face was always red. Erlang sat not far away with a silly smile on her face.

Lian Man'er heard the sound of firecrackers outside and came out of the upper room. Xiao Qi and Liu Lang were playing in the yard.

"Second sister, please avoid it, let's put a little whip." Xiaoqi said to Lian Man'er.

At yesterday's wedding banquet, a few firecrackers were set off. Some of them were not lit and fell to the ground. After the firecrackers were set off, the children who had been waiting around would rush in front of them and pick up the unexploded firecrackers in the shredded paper and firecrackers on the ground.

Xiaoqi picked up some, ordered a few to play yesterday, but he was reluctant to put them all together. He stored the rest again, and took out some now.

The reason why it is called Xiaobianer is that this kind of firecracker is very small. In Lian Maner's eyes, it is only two centimeters long and very thin. Of course, there is very little medicine inside. After lit, the explosion sounds short and not loud enough. However, in the eyes of the children of the village households, it is a rare toy and very precious.

Xiao Qi held a small whip in one hand, and on the other hand was a lit firewood stick. Use the firewood stick to light the lead on the small whip. Seeing that the lead was about to burn to the end, he immediately threw the small whip out, and a bang. The small whip exploded in the air, and Xiao Qi giggled.

"Second sister, are you playing?" Xiao Qi was two o'clock and let Lian Man'er play.

Lian Man'er was just bored, so she took the firewood stick from Xiaoqi and a small whip. She blew a breath on the extinguished firewood stick. When it turned from gray to red, she lit the small whip like Xiaoqi and threw it into the air.

After putting a few in a row, Lian Man'er felt that it was not satisfied.

"Wait for the New Year, let's buy bigger firecrackers to set off." Lian Man'er handed the firewood stick back to Xiaoqi.

"Yeah, um." Xiaoqi's eyes lit up, "Second sister, if our parents don't pay, I will use my salary."

Lian Man'er returned to the west wing. Lian Zhier came back earlier than her and had already made needlework on the kang. Lian Man'er also climbed onto the kang and sat down, took a piece of coarse cloth, and learned the simplest flat needle.

"It's a bit decent. You can help you in two days of sewing quilts." Lian Zhi'er looked at it and said.

As the sisters were talking, they heard the soft footsteps outside. Lian Yaer lifted the curtain and walked in with Zhao Xiu'e.

"Sister-in-law Xiu'e, sit on the kang quickly." Lian Zhi'er hurriedly greeted.

Lian Man'er took out a tray from the kang cabinet. Half of the plate was garlic-flavored peanuts and half fried sunflower seeds. They were called Mao Ke, which was said to have been passed down from a barbaric country in the north. People in that country were like monkeys, with hair all over their bodies and were called Mao Ke. The Russians were ate and ate, so they were called Mao Ke. (I heard that people were talking about it as a joke, but I had no research on it).

Zhao Xiu'e sat on the edge of the kang and looked around for a while.

"The house of the fourth uncle and fourth aunt is so clean." Perhaps in front of the peers and girls younger than him, Zhao Xiu'e was not as shy as she was when she went to the room and spoke very neatly.

When they went to the room, the Lian family was still talking for several generations. The men smoked and the house was in a mess. Zhao Xiu'e made an excuse and said she was looking around and then came out. She had just gone to the east wing room, and the house was dirty and messy, and the smell was not good. She couldn't sit still, so she got up and came to the west wing room.

Mrs. He was called over by Mrs. Zhou and asked Lian Yaer to accompany her. There were only sisters Lian Zhier and Lian Maner in the room. The room was clean and very suitable for her.

"If you have nothing to do, just clean up and get by. Just don't joke if you see Sister Xiu'e." Lian Zhi'er said.

"Sister-in-law Xiu'e, eat peanuts." Lian Man'er saw that Zhao Xiu'e didn't eat anything in the tray, so she grabbed her peanuts.

Zhao Xiu'e picked it up, and while eating, she chatted with Lian Zhi'er and Lian Man'er.

"I just passed by the shop. Is it yours?" Zhao Xiu'e asked.

"Yes." Lian Man'er responded.

"I heard that in the town, it's quite profitable." Zhao Xiu'e asked again with a smile.

"Then you have to ask my mother." Lian Man'er snatched in front of Lian Zhi'er and said with a smile, "My mother always treats us as children and doesn't tell us anything."

"...Making money is also earning some hard money." Lian Zhier said.

"I heard Ya'er say, have you separated?" Zhao Xiu'e paused and asked inadvertently.
