Chapter 330: Having fun in the bridal chamber, counting the gifts (all ordered with extra updates)
After the wedding banquet, the young people clamored to have a wedding ceremony.
The wedding ceremony in this era was relatively simple. Fang Yan and Zhu Lin would just bite apples and drink glasses of wine together in the bedroom.
Then give everyone a show.
Fang Yan and Zhu Lin sang a song together.
Li Jun, the brother from the big courtyard who can play the harmonica, also joined in the accompaniment.
Finally, the girls who had learned dance from Zhu Lin started dancing around them.
Fortunately, the bedroom in Fang Yan's house is big, otherwise it would be really difficult to use it.
Every lively scene was recorded by Chen Huaikai with his camera.
Finally, I finished shooting all the film for today.
The wedding ceremony only lasted for more than an hour. Fang Yan and the others had been busy all day. They only had a few bites of food and needed to rest.
The guests left one after another, and Fang Yan and the others saw them off one by one at the door.
Everyone who leaves will get a prepared red peanut, red egg, red date, and a Double Happiness towel.
From beginning to end, the wedding was of a very high standard.
The camera in Chen Huaikai's hand wanted to record this scene, but it ran out of film and he scratched his head anxiously.
Then I saw Deng Min from the People's Medical Publishing House taking pictures, and I hurriedly went over to discuss sharing the negatives.
Deng Min agreed to Director Chen's request, but he also wanted the photos developed by Director Chen's Hasselblad.
The two agreed to the terms of exchange and began to record the scene in front of them with satisfaction.
After sending away most of the people, only some relatives who lived in Fang Yan's house were left.
Zhu Liangchun, Mr. Zhu, oh, now Fang Yan should call him uncle, he lives in the front yard of Fang Yan’s house.
Senior Brother Chen Youqing and Chen, who followed him to Beijing, also live here.
In addition, there are relatives from my mother's family, namely my uncle and aunt, and my second uncle and aunt.
My uncle is a railway worker. He became disabled due to the emergency, and now he gets money every month. He originally planned to study the medical books left by his grandfather, but unfortunately too many medical books have been lost and he can no longer understand them.
My second uncle is a high school teacher. He also suffered a disaster a few years ago. He has not returned to work yet, and his life is not very good. He relies on his second aunt in the food factory to support the family.
As for the cousins at home, none of them came this time.
The main reason is that life is not very good to begin with, and you have to pay a gift when you come here.
What's more, they are not close to Fang Yan, they just know that he has such a cousin.
Only when the eldest uncle and the second uncle came over did they realize that the little sister's family was much better off than they had imagined.
This big courtyard, this grand wedding ceremony, and today’s banquet.
Everything shows that dialect is so promising.
Moreover, the wife he married was incredible, and the dowry was brought here by truck.
All kinds of things are piled up in the main hall and in the study.
It was in stark contrast to when their son married a wife.
The reason why I didn't go out with Fang Yan's family before was because the Fang Yan family suffered a disaster, and Fang Zhenhua was sent out directly.
Now that Fang Zhenhua has returned, he has become a professor at the school, and He Huiru will be the deputy chief physician of Union Medical College as soon as the National Day is over.
My son is great, and so is my daughter-in-law.
It was so tight that they were envious.
Fang Yan's wife, He Huiru, was somewhat interested in letting her eldest and second brothers see her, so she kept them at home for one night.
It can be regarded as an alternative way to feel proud.
In addition, Fang Yan also has two aunts, but they have married elsewhere and cannot come this time.
As for the people in Lao Fang's family, the situation is even more tragic. The uncle, third uncle, fourth uncle, and sister-in-law all went out of town for various reasons. The only news is that they are all still alive. In comparison, in the past few years, the luckiest person in the old Fang family was Fang Zhenhua.
At least his wife is still in Xiehe and the family has not moved from the capital yet.
The news of Fang Yan's marriage was just a telegram sent by his father. Before Fang Yan got married, only his uncle and sister-in-law responded.
He said that he had sent some souvenirs to wish his nephew a happy wedding.
……
In the afternoon of that day, Fang Yan's family packed some of the untouched dishes in the kitchen and gave them to nearby neighbors.
Mainly people from Director Feng’s sub-district office, as well as experts and professors from Xiehe Villa District.
There is also a police station not far away.
It’s popular these days and the leftovers don’t go to waste.
What's more, the dishes at Fang Yan's house are quite delicious, and they are still untouched in the pot.
One by one, the neighbors happily accepted these dishes.
Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version!
After delivering the leftovers, Fang Yan and his family had another meal that night.
Then the couple returned to the bedroom and began to count the gifts given by everyone today.
The father of his disciple Anton Sofia's family, Bachukayev, directly built a color TV and sent it over.
Fang Yan originally wanted to wait until he had a baby to buy it himself, so he sent it over.
This thing is so expensive that even the dialect can’t take it out.
If other people saw it, the contrast would be too strong and they would be embarrassed to give gifts.
In addition, the eldest sister and eldest brother-in-law's family gave some very hard-core gifts. Their family gave the largest bezoar to Fang Yan and Zhu Lin.
If it were sold now, it would be worth more than two thousand.
Fang Yan originally wanted to refuse, but the eldest sister said that the eldest brother-in-law would have to rely on Fang Yan's help in his future work, so he had to accept it.
Fang Yan had no choice but to accept it, but he had no intention of selling the bezoar.
Maybe you can use it to make Chinese medicine or something if you keep it later.
Old Si Fangchen didn't know where the money came from, so he bought an antique record player for Fang Yan and the others.
Put it in the main hall.
Then there were a lot of red envelopes and bills sent by the Zhu family.
It was not suitable for them to come all the way to get things, so they prepared the most practical ones.
Mr. Zhu gave him a set of ancient nine-needle needles in dialect and a secret palace recipe from when he was studying medicine. It was something he inherited from Ma Huiqing, a family of imperial doctors in Menghe, who studied medicine in his early years.
The prescriptions in it are very expensive, but the effects are very powerful.
It doesn't make much sense for daily use. After all, there are other cost-effective options, but the life-saving features inside are effective.
It is also a very valuable thing for dialects.
Then there was Le Miao, who gave Fang Yan an ancient painting. Fang Yan hadn't studied it yet, but looking at the dense seals on it, it should be worth a lot.
As for other people, they more or less gave some commemorative or practical objects.
My uncle and sister-in-law just returned to the city and didn't have much in their hands, so they gave these relatively ordinary gifts.
Fang Yan and Zhu Lin did this count until eleven o'clock in the evening.
Although the wedding cost a lot, the gifts received were also quite generous.
All in all, after the wedding, the couple's treasury has doubled, and their interpersonal relationships have expanded a lot.
PS: After finishing this chapter, I still owe everyone ten thousand.
