Chapter 433: Grab one and give it a try (two-in-one)
“Come on, come on, the bride-to-be wedding team is back, ready to fire off the firecrackers.”
Yang Yumin led the Li family’s bride-to-be bride-to-be team Just after returning to Zhongguancun, Sun Xianxian, who was in charge of guarding the street, ran all the way to the door of Yang's house and directed several students from the Gujun Literary Club to lift the firecrackers that had been prepared.
At the moment, the firecrackers are not in fashion and are scattered on the ground. They are all wrapped up with poles, and they are carried and crackled to move and set off. It is much more exciting than "fully automatic" in a bunk underground. .
So setting off firecrackers is a hot job now. Sun Xianxian was able to grab the job of setting off firecrackers with the help of Gujun Literary Society!
Hearing that the wedding team had returned, there was a commotion in the yard of the Yang family. Many people ran to the door, among which three people, two men and one woman, were particularly conspicuous.
Two of the men were both around thirty years old. They were both wearing ill-fitting suits and brand-new cloth shoes, which were unique to the early 1980s.
Although suits these days do have this "baggy" characteristic, with the emergence of Fenghua brand, fashionable suits have become more and more "slim-fitting", so these two The man's suit looks a bit awkward.
The other woman was wearing ordinary clothes, but she was blocking the door at the moment, moving left and right to block Yang Yujiao who wanted to come out.
"Go back and stay. What a sister of yours who is not related to you is doing out today, making people laugh."
Yang Yujiao had a softer temperament, but after being scolded by this middle-aged woman, she burst into tears and lost her confidence.
Sun Xianxian knew Yang Yujiao, and seeing her huddled in the door wanting to come out but not daring to come out was really incomprehensible.
Bian Jingjing, the girlfriend next to her, was still good at capturing gossip information. She whispered to Sun Xian: "There seems to be something wrong with those three people. After they came up last night, they were in the house with Aunt Yang and Yang Yumin. After talking for a long time, the aunt was obviously crying when she came out."
"Are you here to cause trouble?"
Sun Xianxian, a native of Heilongjiang Province, had a straightforward temper, and he immediately disliked the three people.
But Bian Jingjing quietly poked her boyfriend and whispered: "Lao Yang's leader is here today! We are outsiders and can't take the initiative to do anything. Let's see how Yang Yumin responds later."
Sun Xianxian glanced at the three people and suddenly said: "They'd better not make trouble, otherwise someone will let them know what trouble means!"
Bian Jingjing nodded with deep approval. He nodded in agreement.
After all, as his brother-in-law, Li Ye must be here to see off his bride today. He is not a frustrated master.
If anyone makes him uncomfortable, he guarantees to make others twice as uncomfortable.
It's just that even though Bian Jingjing was astute, he never expected that it wouldn't be Li Ye's turn to take the lead in today's matter because he couldn't be ranked.
"Cracking ~ Cracking ~"
With the sound of loud and dense firecrackers, a sloppy car was ranked at the door of the Yang family, attracting the attention of many people, He also received a surprised "Oh" sound.
“There are so many cars. The Yang family who just moved here has a good background.”
“Maybe the bride is capable! I often see the new wife driving a small car. The car came over and it seemed to be the manager of the Fenghua brand, the same Fenghua brand that was shown on TV all day long.”
"Hey, you are a manager at such a young age. It's not that she is capable, it's that her father is capable."
"Looking at what you said, if you were capable, wouldn't your son benefit from it? I'm afraid you are You’re incapable, aren’t you?” "." Yes" point.
Anyone who can borrow the car of the boss of the work unit to make a wedding trip must be very honorable.
But now there are not just one or two cars in the Li family's wedding party.
The one with the red flower on the head is Jin Peng's new car, followed by Pei Wenhui's small BMW, and several Santana's from Pengcheng No. 7 Factory.
The one just assigned to Wang The Volga in the strong hands, Chen Donggou's Ladaniva, and the Jingcheng 130 that was pulling goods could only be ranked at the bottom.
The two men in suits licked their lips and looked at the row of cars in front of them with envy.
One of them whispered: "Brother, when can we get in this car?"
The other one said firmly: "I can sit on it today. I will tell my sister-in-law later that his new wife has just come in and she doesn't dare to disrespect me."
"But... I don't think our brother will You’re interested in us.”
“He dares to have an organization. , if he dares to look down on us, I will go to his workplace to sue him and make him walk around without food."
"."
The firecrackers prepared by the Yang family are very long. The fuses of the old firecrackers were not so urgent. They crackled for a long time before they stopped.
After the firecrackers were fired, the smell of sulfur in the air had not yet dissipated. The man at the door glanced at the woman next to him, and the woman quickly rushed to the back door of the leading car and reached out to pull the door open.
"Welcome to the bride!"
But she pulled twice in succession, but the car door could not be opened, and the window glass was lowered.
The little sister Li Ying opened her big eyes and said cutely and crisply: "Who are you? Don't pull it, otherwise it will break, and my family will have to pay for it."< br>
“.”
The woman was stunned for a moment, and then she realized that the bride Li Yue, the groom Yang Yumin, and this annoying little girl were excluded from the back of the car.
"How can I be too embarrassed? Hehe, I am Yumin's sister-in-law, and I am in a hurry to pick up the bride. We are home now, can't we miss the time?"
"You come and pick her up. Bride?" Li Ying tilted her head strangely, suddenly pointed at Yang Yujiao at the door, and shouted: "Yujiao, why don't you come to pick up your sister-in-law, are you just hiding behind me like a brat?"
Li Ying only met Yang Yujiao once when the two parents met, and their relationship was only average.
But after learning about the relationship between Yang Yumin and Yang Yujiao this morning, the relationship suddenly became several times closer.
Because the relationship between Yang Yujiao and Yang Yumin is not the same as the relationship between Li Ying and Li Ye?
Not real brothers and sisters, but better than real brothers and sisters!
Yang Yujiao, who was blocked in the door, immediately gained courage after hearing Li Ying's call. She squeezed past the two "eldest and second brothers" standing at the door, took small steps and ran to the wedding car, stretching out her hand. Opened the car door.
Yang Yumin’s “sister-in-law” immediately looked down.
I, the "real sister-in-law", pulled her away twice, but Yang Yujiao, the sister across the wall, pulled her away at once. Are you making me look bad?
But she hasn't figured out how to attack it yet! Li Ying, who was in the back seat, and Li Juan, who was in the passenger seat, both got out of the car and squeezed to both sides of the door. Together with Yang Yujiao, they pushed the sister-in-law aside.
At this time, Yang Yumin got out of the car and reached out to help the bride, Li Yue, get out of the car.
“Hey, look at this bride, I’m right! She’s more beautiful than that movie star.”
“Hey, what’s up with that dress she’s wearing?” It’s so beautiful.”
“Don’t you know? This is a popular women’s wedding dress in Hong Kong. There is an imported store on Xiu Shui Street that sells this. It is a tradition of our ancestors.”
"Her clothes are not completely ancestral traditions. When I was a child, I saw my aunt's wedding clothes, which are different from hers. However, hers requires a lot of sewing and is not cheap at first glance."
"It's a pity. If there was another red hijab, it would be like filming a movie."
"You don't either Look at what company the groom is from, and he wears a red hijab. It’s bold enough to wear something like this.” Wear Western? Just wear that foreigner’s suit?”
“.”
There was a commotion at the door, which was quite lively.
But the two "eldest brother and second brother" who were blocking the door looked very unhappy.
This bride has not yet entered the house, and she is making such a big show. Will she be able to serve her parents-in-law obediently from now on?
So when the three little girls escorted the bride and groom to enter, the two "brothers" wearing suits and cloth shoes refused to let in.
"My sister-in-law is here! Why didn't you let your sister-in-law pick her up from the car just now? Hahaha, if you have any opinions about your sister-in-law, tell me. I will fix her when I get back. A woman turned against her. ”
"You have to blame the third child for this. If you get married secretly and don't tell your family early, won't you just make people look at you? Let's introduce ourselves. I am your second brother. This is your eldest brother. That is you. Sister-in-law. And your eldest nephew”
Let’s talk about the flower grower. Weddings have always had the habit of being joyful, and in some places there is a custom of blocking the bride outside the door to laugh and laugh.
But generally, the brother-in-law can block the door and shamelessly make things difficult for the new sister-in-law, for which she needs two pocket coins. But it is not appropriate for the eldest uncle to block the door.
Yang Yumin gritted his teeth tightly and wanted to go up and beat these two guys.
He knew very well that these two blood brothers wanted Li Yue to call them brother and sister-in-law in front of so many people.
Yang Yumin knows very well that everything has a beginning. If he recognizes this eldest brother and sister-in-law today, there will be many things to climb up in the future.
My mother, Yang Huaihua, is usually a strong person, but today she suddenly lost her mind on this matter. I hate that he, a "junior", was suppressed by some bullshit morality. bound hands and feet.
This kind of moral suppression is very Cao Dan. If there are rumors circulating in the workplace that a certain person has an old fist against his biological parents and biological brothers, will it not affect the opinion of the superiors on you? Absolutely impossible.
Yang Yumin suddenly had an impulse.
[I’m going to quit this job, and at worst I’ll sell clothes to my wife and I. 】
But at this moment, Yang Yumin felt his arm tighten. It was Li Yue who pinched his arm to remind him not to be impulsive.
Then, Yang Yumin saw his youngest sister, Li Ying, walking in the door with her head sullen.
But there are two big men blocking the door! Didn’t this happen immediately?
“Wow~”
Li Ying suddenly burst into tears. While crying, she asked aggrievedly: “What are you doing? Why don’t you let us in? We have to rush It’s time to worship, what are you doing?”
"."
Although Li Ying cried like thunder but no rain, she immediately disrupted the position of the eldest brother and the second brother.
Li Ye, who was following behind, was very surprised.
He was surprised because of his grandmother Wu Juying’s eyesight.
Wu Juying told her two younger sisters, Li Juan and Li Ying, in advance to cry if someone stops them, but this crying must also have a technical content! I never thought that my little sister Li Ying actually had this "skill".
"Ahem~" A steady cough came from behind the crowd.
Li Zhongfa walked past the crowd and walked to the front with a sullen expression, his hands behind his back.
"You two, the time is almost here, why don't we go in first? You see, we have sent our daughter here, so we can't be so disgusted that we won't let her in, right?"
". ”
"You old comrade, how can we not let the bride in? We have that custom. But who are you, old comrade? What is your name?"
Li Zhongfa smiled slightly and pointed to the door. Li Yue.
"This is my granddaughter, and I am his grandfather."
"."
Well, grandpa is here, what do you call me?
Of course you have to call me grandpa.
The eldest brother and the second brother are a little stupid, because this is against the rules.
Generally speaking, there are no direct elders of the bride in the procession of sending off the bride, and the main ones are uncles and uncles.
But Li Kaijian is the only brother, Li Yue has no uncle, and Fu Guiru has no brothers. There is an uncle whose cousin is still in Malay!
So the two uncles Zhao Yuanchao and Cui Zhixian, as well as Li Dayong’s father Li Zhanjun, were originally scheduled for today, and the woman was the aunt Li Mingxiang.
But things have changed, and grandpa has no choice but to go into battle himself and "screen" his eldest uncle Cui Zhixian.
When the eldest and second brothers saw Li Zhongfa, they didn’t know how to receive him. They could only call him grandpa!
"Hey, grandpa, why are you here in person? Yumin didn't even say hello. The reception was not good. The reception was not good."
Yang Yumin's eldest brother could only smile with a smile on his face. After receiving Li Zhongfa, Zhao Yuanchao and Li Zhanjun who followed behind him greeted him and took him into the courtyard.
There is no way to resist!
Today, the main focus of the Li family is to "steal the guests and steal the show."
Li Yue pulled Yang Yumin's arm and whispered: "Let's go! Don't say anything today. If you don't say anything, there will be no mistakes. Just leave everything to grandpa."
Yang Yumin's nose felt sore and he couldn't help but said: "Thank you, thank you for today."
Li Yue turned around and gave Yang Yumin a roll of his eyes, and said displeasedly: "You can say it again I won’t let this kind of talk between the two families happen!”
“.”
"You two, stop inking. There are two old people inside! Take me in quickly and see what kind of thing this is."
Li Ye pushed Yang Yumin from behind before pushing the two newcomers in. The yard.
After entering the courtyard, Li Ye saw that the guests in the courtyard were clearly divided into two parts. One part was Yang Yumin's classmates, and the other part was naturally the colleagues and leaders of the unit.
As for Yang Yumin’s biological eldest and second brothers, they are the third part, along with the two other old men sitting in the main room.
The two old men had already moved the chairs and were sitting motionless in the most conspicuous place in the main room. They felt like two masters, waiting for the newcomer to visit.
But after the eldest brother whispered a few words to him, it was impossible for them to stay still. This was a lifetime difference! People are standing in the yard and you are still sitting in the house. Is there super glue stuck under your butt?
The old man quickly got up and went to the yard, and said to Li Zhongfa: "Hey, my grandpa, how can I trouble you to come? This is too troublesome for you."
Li Zhongfa said with a smile: "My daughter is marrying thousands of miles away, so my family must be uneasy. But today Yang Yumin told me something, and his father is even more worried. But his father is soft-tempered and can't see his daughter." If you want to get married, why don’t you just bring me here as a gift?”
“There’s nothing to worry about. Don’t worry, her grandfather, we are both kind people and we will definitely not treat Li badly. "Pleasant."
The old man patted his chest and made a promise, and Li Zhongfa smiled and nodded. He didn't say anything more to them, but turned and walked towards Yang Yumin's colleagues.
Li Zhongfa came today not to deal with Yang Yumin's two biological parents. These two people were not worthy of his visit.
Before Li Zhongfa reached Yang Yumin’s colleagues, they all came forward to greet him and greeted him with a smile.
"It's hard work, old comrade. When did you arrive in Beijing? How long did it take to catch the train?"
After Li Zhongfa answered one by one, he said to someone wearing glasses: "This is Yang Director?"
Director Yang was slightly surprised and asked: "What? Does the old comrade know me?"
[I can guess who you are just by knowing you and judging by their attitude towards you. 】
There are hidden ways within the system. Of course, Li Zhongfa can tell who is the boss at a glance.
“Hey, I only heard his name but not his person,” Li Zhongfa smiled and said, “I read the newspaper every day, and I saw Director Yang’s article in the newspaper on the 16th of last month. , and later I heard Yu Min talk about it, and found out that it was his leader!"
Director Yang smiled.
"The old man reads newspapers every day, I wonder what your job is?"
"I am the director of a small factory in the countryside, the director of Qingshuihe instant noodles."
Li Zhongfa pointed to the door while introducing himself to Director Yang.
Li Dayong, Jin Peng and others at the door were moving instant noodles into the yard, stacking them one by one.
“There is not much good stuff in a small unit in the countryside. It just so happens that the factory recently had a batch of market research activities. Everyone will bring a box back later to help taste it. It will be regarded as wedding candy,
< br>Of course, if there is any inappropriate taste, you must tell us. If it helps to improve our products, our factory will formally thank you. ”
"Qingshuihe instant noodles? Isn't it the one advertised on TV?"
Director Yang suddenly said: "I know this instant noodles, but what does this research activity mean?"
People Director Yang is very strict. Although he said he was serving as wedding candy, he still had to ask.
So Li Zhongfa explained to Director Yang how Qingshuihe instant noodles had undergone dozens of taste improvements before they were officially launched on the market, and would continue to adjust to the best taste based on customer feedback in the future.
In the process of this explanation, Director Yang realized that Li Zhongfa was only half a level lower than him. Although Director Yang was much more powerful, Li Zhongfa had greater freedom. The two of them were considered We can talk together.
There are implicit rules within the system. If it were Zhao Yuanchao who came here, he would probably be able to knock him down with a few words.
“I shouldn’t have come today, but my son is young and can’t make up his mind when something happens, and I am afraid that our family will dislike me,”
Li Zhongfa said helplessly: “ But how can we dislike it? It’s not easy for Yumin, this kid, to get to where he is today. Why don’t I just come over and let them make the marriage go smoothly?”
< br>"."
Director Yang nodded slowly and smiled gently: "Indeed, Xiao Yang is a good kid. He only said a few words to me this morning, inexplicably,
As an outsider, I don't know much about what's going on, so I can't help him with advice. I was worried just now, but now that the old gentleman is here, I can rest assured. "
"Okay, Director Yang, please bear with me. "
Li Zhong didn't say much. He bowed his hands to Director Yang and turned back to Yang Yumin.
He has already made it clear that he will do what he wants to do later. Li Zhongfa did it, please be patient.
“Where is your mother? Why didn't you see me? ”
Li Zhongfa asked Yang Yumin in a deep voice.
Yang Yumin pointed to the west wing and whispered: "My mother said that she would not come out today. I didn't want to, so she cried. Just now, Li Ye took his aunt in to persuade her, and she I don’t know what it’s like.”
While talking, Li Ye and his sister-in-law Li Mingxiang came out of the west wing and nodded to Li Zhongfa.
Then Li Ye went to mutter a few words to Li Huaisheng and Secretary Li of the Youth League Committee.
Both of them were stunned, then nodded repeatedly.
"Dear guests, thank you for coming to this couple's wedding. Now all units require that everything be kept simple, so we will invite the elders from both sides to say a few words and then worship heaven and earth."
As the head of the woman's family, Li Zhongfa has the highest seniority , naturally the first to speak.
“Parents have been pulling their children for more than ten years. Today, the task is completed. In the future, the children will naturally have to walk their own path, but you must be grateful and grateful for the upbringing of your parents.”
“There is another one today As an aside, the groom's biological parents also rushed to the scene to congratulate the two newlyweds."
"As for me, I will make some arrangements. No one can be missing.”
Li Zhongfa called Yang Yumin and Li Yue over, and then said loudly: "Today was originally a happy event. There are some things that are not very happy, but I have to mention it today."
"That's Yumin. The child's adoptive father died in the war in 1962. He did not see the child today, which was his regret, but the two children can never forget the people who sacrificed for us.
< br>My mother-in-law, is it time for you to come out?”
“.”
The door of the west wing opened, and Yang Huaihua walked out with red eyes, holding a colorful photo frame.
In the photo frame is a color photo, in which a man in a green military uniform is in his prime, strong and upright.
Yang Huaihua hugged the photo frame and sat silently on the chair in the main room.
The two old men and women who were originally entrenched here were still reluctant to leave, but when they looked up, they were shocked.
Everyone looked at them with such unkind eyes, as if they were saying: "Come on, you can try the green military uniform in this photo.
You and I Try the August 1 red star on his hat! ”
"."
"One bow to the heaven and the earth, two bows to the high hall."
With red eyes, the newlyweds kowtowed heavily to the red-eyed Yang Huaihua, which was considered to have completed the most important task of the day. One step ritual.
But the two old men suddenly did not want to accept their kneeling for the second time.
It’s too shameful to compare.
And what kind of thing is standing in line behind Yang Huaihua to kneel down and worship?
