Chapter 133 Picking up the bride
On the afternoon of October in the lunar calendar, the sun is abundant and the air is cool. There is a long queue of bicycles in front of Lin’s house. The back seats of the bicycles are more or less loaded with wedding quilts, wedding cakes, descendants buckets, Thermos bottles, etc., are essential items for weddings in this era.
The newlyweds bid farewell to their parents and family and walked out of the house surrounded by guests. They pushed their bicycles and the team that picked up the bride and groom slowly walked out of the village.
Many villagers came to watch in the village streets and alleys. The sound of firecrackers behind the procession drowned out the villagers' discussions.
Xie Chunlei picked up Lin Mei after get off work. He happened to catch up with the wedding reception team leaving the village. He looked at the happy couple walking in front of the team. His eyes were slightly narrowed, making it difficult to see what he was thinking. .
A villager nearby noticed him and deliberately sighed loudly: "The youngest of the Dashan family is lucky to have married into a good family. You are here to cheer for this marriage, but this is the first one in our village in recent years."
< br>Xie Chunlei lowered his eyes so that the villagers could not see his eyes.
This villager is somewhat related to the Lin family. He gave him a gentle push and greeted him warmly: "Hey, Jie family boy, the banquet is over. You are here to pick up Meizi at this time. "
Xie Chunlei nodded expressionlessly, looking at the bicycles pushing past one after another.
The villagers teased: "Why is it that my daughter-in-law just returned to her parents' home in the morning and came to pick her up in the afternoon. She is reluctant to spend the night at her parents' home, or is she afraid that she will not have a warm bed at night?"
When the villagers nearby heard this, they all laughed kindly. They all came here when they were young. As people who have been there, of course they understand the man's thoughts.
When the bicycle to pick up the bride passed, the villagers followed and walked towards the entrance of the village.
Xie Chunlei followed the strong flow towards the entrance of the village.
The villagers had been paying more attention to him. When they saw him walking towards the entrance of the village, they came closer to him and asked softly: "You just saw how beautifully the youngest member of the Dashan family dressed up. Did you withdraw from her?" Have you ever regretted your kiss?”
I don’t know if these words touched a sensitive point in his heart, but he threw a sharp knife in the eye, scaring the villagers to shut up immediately, and their eyes were a little wandering. , dare not look at him again.
How could the boy from the Jie family, who usually couldn't beat a fart with half a stick, have such sharp eyes?
If you don’t regret it after asking, Xie Chunlei will definitely regret it, but if he is asked to choose again, he will still agree to cancel the engagement.
Although Lin Shu is a beautiful girl from Shiliba Village, her mother doesn’t like her. If her mother doesn’t like her, then everything is in vain.
No matter how beautiful you are, if you marry someone back home, if your mother-in-law and daughter-in-law don’t get along well, you will end up in a state of chaos and be unable to settle down.
It’s just that I have been waiting for her for seven or eight years, and now I have put aside the relationship, and I feel unwilling to do so.
The unwillingness in his heart made him feel a little uncomfortable, especially when he saw Gu Jiu carefully protecting Lin Shu. This scene was too dazzling.
Maybe there is no fucking objection, maybe he is the one standing next to her to protect her now, and there is no place for Gu Jiu.
Now that Xie Chunlei can think this way, maybe he has not discovered the value of Lin Shu. If one day he finds that she stands at a height that he will never reach in his lifetime, maybe his thoughts will be different. .
The team that picked up the bride in the evening had a few tables at a state-owned hotel. By the time the banquet was over, at least half of the nearly twenty young men had collapsed.
Gu Jiu arranged for the sober ones to take the drunk ones home. After sending everyone off, Gu Jiu led Lin Shu home. After the two of them washed up, they basically fell on the bed and fell asleep. What a wedding night. , what kind of spring night is worth a thousand pieces of gold in one moment, Lin Shu can't care about it.
Gu Jiu woke up in the middle of the night, and through the dim light outside the tent, he saw Lin Shu sleeping soundly with him in his arms. He was breathing evenly, his mouth was slightly pouted, and his thick and curled eyelashes were trembling slightly from time to time. He couldn't help but feel itchy. Go and touch it.
When Lin Shu woke up again, it was already bright outside. She vaguely heard voices at the door outside, and looked sideways at the outside of the bed. Gu Jiu had already gotten up.
Lin Shu walked out in her pajamas after washing. She happened to see Gu Jiu closing the door and asked curiously: "Who were you talking to just now?"
Gu Jiu closed the door and strode towards her. , did not take the person who came to the door seriously, and replied casually: "It's Xu Ting. Didn't Xu Ming stay in Xiaohe Village yesterday and planned to drive her parents up today? Xu Ting just came to ask I Xu Ming’s situation.”
Lin Shu was doubtful, "This matter has been decided a long time ago. Didn't Xu Ming tell his family?"
Gu Jiu helped Lin Shu sit down. The table was already set for breakfast, with two bowls of yellow millet porridge. A plate of soup dumplings, a plate of dumplings, and two boiled eggs.
“I don’t know if that boy told his family. Xu Ting said that her parents were worried about her brother and asked her to come here to ask about the situation.”
As for whether it was Xu’s parents or Xu’s mother. Only Xu Ting knew about the request. Gu Jiu didn't want to dwell on these things in his wedding days.
Lin Shu nodded and did not dwell too much on the matter. Xu Ting rushed over early this morning and knocked on the door. She just wanted to irritate her on the first day of her wedding.
It's just that her calculations were wrong.
If Lin Shu cared about her, such behavior might offend Lin Shu, or even seriously affect the relationship between the couple. But she never thought about it at all, and neither Lin Shu nor Gu Jiu took her seriously.
Lin Shu drank a bowl of millet porridge and couldn't eat any more after eating two dumplings.
Gu Jiu saw that Lin Shu only ate a little bit of food. He couldn't help but frowned and patiently advised: "If you don't want to eat more, do you want to taste this soup dumpling?" It’s specially launched by the state-owned hotel today. They don’t sell soup dumplings on weekdays.”
Lin Shubuwei. Moved, he shook his head resolutely: "I won't eat it. The taste of pregnancy is like having a seizure. Whether it tastes good or not depends entirely on my mood. Sometimes I can eat this food and it's okay after eating it. Sometimes I can't eat it and I feel nauseated when I eat it. Eating a bowl of millet porridge and two dumplings today is already giving me face.”
When he heard the word "baby", Gu Jiu's eyes softened and the corners of his mouth turned up slightly, "I will communicate with the baby before going to bed that night, so that he can behave well in his belly and don't be picky about food."
All the food on the table ended up in Gu Jiu's stomach, and the two of them went to the canteen after breakfast.
At this time, Lin Dashan and Liu Xiao'e had not returned yet. The store was already open, and only An Fan and Ding Zaichun were guarding the store.
"Brother Ninth, sister-in-law." An Fan was the first to see Gu Jiu appear at the door riding a bicycle with Lin Shu on his back.
Ding Zaichun looked up and saw that Gu Jiu and Lin Shu had already entered the store, "You two had a busy day yesterday, aren't you tired? Why didn't you sleep more?"
After hearing this, Gu Jiu didn't want to think too much, and asked expressionlessly: "How was the business in the past two days? Nothing went wrong, right? What goods need to be replenished in the store?"
"Business is now stabilizing. , the daily operating income is not much different, and as for the goods to be replenished, I wrote them down at the back of the book." As he spoke, Ding Zaichun pointed to the small book hanging in front of the counter.
This small book records the selling prices of the goods in the store in the front, and can record the shortage of goods in the store in the back.
