Chapter 117 Strong
In fact, weddings in this era are very simple and will not be extravagant or wasteful.
Especially in rural areas.
In rural areas, because most girls get married, they go to other villages. Before noon, the groom has to rush to the bride’s village with a wedding team, have a wedding banquet at the father-in-law’s house, and then carry the dowry to pick up the bride and rush to her. At the groom's house, he will hold a wedding banquet in the evening.
Of course, the size of the wedding banquet is based on the strength of both families. Those with strong financial resources can host more tables, while those from poor families can host a simpler one.
The second room of the Lin family only invited relatives from the same family this time, and there were about four tables.
There was one table for relatives from Li Xiu's mother's family, two tables for relatives from Lin's family, and the remaining table was occupied by guests from the groom's side.
When the groom arrived, firecrackers were blasting outside the door. Lin Shu saw a small red flower Jie Chunlei wearing on his chest, and his face was filled with joy. It seemed that he was very satisfied with the marriage. .
"For such a man with no vision, you don't have to stare at him. You have to stare at me. I'm much prettier than him."
Perhaps her gaze stayed on Xie Chunlei had been on it for too long, and Gu Jiu's sour voice rang in his ears at the right time.
Lin Shu smiled at him, "I'm just curious about whether a man whose marriage is manipulated by his mother is really happy when he gets married."
Gu Jiu stared at her with a faint look: "Then you Do you see it now?"
Lin Shu shook his head: "I don't know, maybe he is happy."
But it is no longer relevant. Whether his marriage is happy or not. Happiness is no longer any of her business.
The groom arrived and the wedding banquet started at noon.
After the meal, the groom pushed the bicycle and took the bride away, followed by the relatives who followed behind carrying children's buckets, quilts, and wedding cakes.
"The man Mei Zi married also had a job. Why didn't he even prepare thirty-six legs for the dowry? This is too shabby."
Just a load of descendants buckets and two quilts , a load of wedding cakes, nothing left.
“I also think that Lin Dahe and his wife are too stingy when marrying a girl. The dowry must at least be decent.”
“It’s not bad, not too bad. The man When we first got engaged, we didn’t give much as a betrothal gift. You can’t have double standards as a person.”
Lin Shu stood in the crowd and listened to the villagers' discussions, and said with a headache: "When we hold a banquet, these villagers won't talk like this, right?"
Since Gu Jiu has a house in the county town, Nice old furniture. When they open the wine shop in October, the Lin family has no plans to make furniture.
As for the dowry, it was the betrothal gift given to her by Gu Jiu, as well as a few beddings and sets of clothes. Isn't such a dowry shabby?
After hearing her words, Gu Jiu twitched the corner of his mouth, bent down and said in her ear: "How can she compare with you? The old house you bought in the county is your dowry. With that house, your dowry will be the best in the whole village, and probably no one in the whole town can match it."
Lin Shu's eyes flashed, and he coughed lightly, "We didn't buy that house together. ”
"Count it as your dowry." Gu Jiu withdrew his gaze from the newlyweds, his deep eyes fell on Lin Shu again, and pinched her cheek while no one was paying attention.
Lin Shu gave him an angry look, stroked the broken hair on his cheek, pulled him and squeezed out of the crowd of spectators, and the two of them walked leisurely on the bluestone road in the village.
"Should we go back this afternoon or tomorrow?"
Gu Jiu listened to the sound of firecrackers behind to send off the bride, "Let's go back in the afternoon. I'm going to see An Fan tomorrow. I'm going to Let the nearby villages tell everyone and let them deliver the goods to the city themselves. "
"This is the best arrangement. They have a small target and it is not easy for people with evil intentions to take advantage of it." Lin Shu. nod.
Their people go for acquisitions and carry a lot of cash, making them easy for people to target.
For example, An Fan was stopped and robbed last time because he had a lot of cash on him. It's a small matter if the money is robbed, but it's a big deal if someone's life is injured.
After returning home, Liu Xiaoe had already come back first. When she heard that they were going back, she immediately started preparing things for them to take back.
Lin Shu stopped her: "Mom, we are going back today to bring medicinal herbs. There is nowhere to put other things. Don't be busy." This time they planned to bring back two hundred kilograms of medicinal herbs. One hundred and eighty kilograms was asked by Lin Dong to take it to the county seat.
The reason why Dongfa is not allowed to go with him today is because Dongfa went to see off his bride today.
Lin Shu estimated the value of the medicinal materials brought by Lin Xue, handed the money to Comrade Liu Xiaoe, and asked her to wait for Lin Xue and others to come back after watching the fun and give it to them.
On the way back to the county seat, Lin Shu was riding a women's bicycle. Halfway through loading the medicinal materials, she lost strength.
The main reason is that Dongfa rides on her 28 big bars. He delivers goods to the county every two days. It is inconvenient without the 28 big bars.
Now Lin Shu is riding the women's bicycle that he was engaged to have, and its ability to carry cargo is naturally not as good as the 28-meter-high pole.
In the end, Gu Jiu tied all two hundred kilograms of medicinal materials to his bicycle and rode all the way to the county seat. This also allowed Lin Shu to see Gu Jiu's strength.
After returning home, the two of them lay on the recliner and didn't want to move.
The two of them had a simple bowl of noodles in the evening.
Before going to bed, Lin Shu boiled moxa leaf water and insisted that Gu Jiu soak her feet in moxa leaf water with her before going to bed.
After riding such a long distance with a heavy load in the afternoon, if you don’t soak your feet to relax your muscles, your legs may be sore when you get up tomorrow.
Gu Jiu wiped his feet with a handkerchief and pulled on his shoes. "You go to bed first, and I'll pour the water."
When he came back from pouring the water, he found that Lin Shu had fallen asleep.
He took off his clothes and got into bed wearing only a pair of underwear.
Lin Shu was slightly dissatisfied with the weight on his body and stretched out his hand to push away the troublemaker.
I didn’t want my clothes to be wiped clean so quickly.
Lin Shu was startled and woke up a little. He exclaimed: "You have ridden such a long way today, how can you still have such strong energy?"
"Today is an auspicious day, suitable for the bridal chamber." "Hua Zhu."
Gu Jiu didn't know what kind of stimulation he had tonight, and his attitude was very tough. He ignored her protests and didn't even let her go until he begged for mercy, and he didn't go to bed until very late.
When Lin Shu woke up the next day, he found that he was still lying in Gu Jiu's arms.
“Are you awake?”
Lin Shu noticed the bright sun outside and wanted to cry without tears, "You are just a beast!"
Since the two registered, the bed and bed affairs between the couple have been very harmonious. Last night was the first time. Once he disobeyed her wishes.
Gu Jiu helped her smooth the hair from her forehead. Hearing her words, he couldn't laugh or cry for a moment. But when his wife got angry, he had to apologize quickly: "I was too excited last night and I didn't take your feelings into consideration." No, I’ll pay attention next time.”
Wanting a next time, Lin Shu was too angry to pay attention to him and turned his back to him.
Facing the fair and smooth back, Gu Jiu leaned over and kissed it, "It's almost noon, what do you want to eat? I'll do it."
Lin Shu closed her eyes and remained silent.
Gu Jiu smiled silently and wryly, climbed out of the bed, and while putting on his clothes, he said: "Now that the weather is getting colder, you helped make clothes for your nephews and nieces, and made clothes for your parents, right? Didn’t you forget to help your husband?”
