Chapter 136 Lift your hijab (Part 2)
“The bride and groom come in.”
On February 10th, Azu and the boss Guang received Diana early in the morning When he and Xianglan returned to Kang's house, Erlao, the witness, shouted loudly, which meant that the wedding had officially begun. Last night, Xianglan went to Diana's place to symbolically become her natal family. Today, she went in with Azu and Diana. Of course, Azu and Diana were officially married, and they were re-married, so the protagonists are still Azu and the others. , Xianglan and the others could only follow behind.
After passing the brazier at the door, everyone entered the living room of the Kang family. At this time, Azu shouted: "Mother Dou, I brought my wife back." Nodding, the second brother stood in his position and said: "Bow down to heaven and earth." Azu Diana and the boss Guang Xianglan bowed to the ancestral tablet.
In Guangdong Province, especially in Guangfu, the so-called worshiping gods and heaven and earth actually means worshiping one's ancestors. In order to worship their ancestors, Guangfu people will specially build ancestral halls and temples to enshrine their ancestors' tablets. For the tribesmen, ancestors are gods. These ancestral temples are not only places to worship ancestors, but also symbols of clan unity.
After worshiping heaven and earth, the second sister-in-law, the bride, led everyone to Mrs. Dou, mainly leading Diana, because in Chinese weddings, Diana wears a red hijab on her head, and the hijab is removed by the groom when entering the bridal chamber. , so now she is blindfolded and unable to see. "Two bows to the Lord." The second brother shouted loudly, Azu and Diana knelt down to salute, the big brother Guang also knelt down, and Xianglan quickly pulled him up, "Hey, husband, we don't have to kneel in the Western style. ."
"Couples bow to each other." Azu and Diana bowed to each other, and Daguang Guang and Xianglan bowed to each other.
Then comes the last step of the wedding, "sending into the bridal chamber." This whole process has been experienced by Kang Qirui before when he got married. It has been rehearsed every night for the past few days, and everyone naturally also We are very familiar with each other and there was no problem at all during the whole wedding. After the wedding, everyone went to the hotel they had booked for dinner. Originally, Azu thought of having a meal in a tea restaurant, but Lao Dou felt that it was completely a Hong Kong-style tea restaurant and it would be unseemly to serve drinks there, so he ended up sponsoring part of it. , Mr. Azu only spent some money on his own, but still chose a three-star hotel.
After eating, everyone else left in the car, but Kang Qirui and Zhu Wanling walked back. It is a good thing for pregnant women to take more walks, which has a positive impact on physical and mental health. It can promote blood circulation, enhance cardiopulmonary function, and relieve discomfort symptoms during pregnancy. In addition, walking can help reduce anxiety and stress in pregnant women and improve sleep quality.
So basically every day Kang Qirui would take Zhu Wanling out for a walk. However, Kang Qirui, who had a busy day today, had no time to take a walk. Fortunately, the hotel was not far from Kang's house, so the walk back was treated as a walk. While walking on the road, Zhu Wanling suddenly said with emotion: "Azu's wedding was so simple. Many things were simple."
Kang Qirui thought she thought Azu's marriage was too casual, so he said, "We can just talk about this among ourselves, but we must not say it outside." Zhu Wanling looked at her husband and knew that Kang Qirui Rui thought wrong, and she explained: "I mean it should be done this way. We were in so much trouble at that time, and it took us a month to do it. It also happened on the wedding day, and we had to get up in the middle of the night. Prepared. How troublesome, I mean, if we had done it so simply, it would have been so easy.”
That’s what it meant, but Kang Qirui knew that Zhu Wanling was just a mouthful. It was just a talk. She said she disliked the trouble of the wedding, but she was still very happy in her heart. Even if her wedding was outside the Kang family, it was extremely grand for the entire Changsheng Street and Xiguan, and all the procedures were different. This kind of ceremony should be done to the fullest, and it can be said that the scenery is endless. Because of that wedding, Zhu Shi Nai is now more popular when going out, and she has become a role model in the Shi Nai world.
The next day is already the 28th of the New Year, and the flavor of the New Year is already very strong. Everyone in the Kang family got up early to have breakfast. Today everyone has to send something back to their parents' house. "Azu and his wife haven't come out to have breakfast yet?" Mom took a tray with sandwiches and milk tea on it. Asked when Diana Azu hadn't come out yet.
"Mom, I'm a foreigner. I like to sleep in. Maybe I haven't gotten up yet." The second brother did have a good relationship with Azu, and he immediately found a reason for Azu. "Maybe you're already up and waiting for us to deliver breakfast." Xianglan joked, but the boss didn't understand and asked why in confusion.
"Uncle, isn't it on TV? Foreigners like to sit on the bedside and have breakfast." The second sister-in-law also agreed with Xianglan's view and took the initiative to explain it to the boss Guang. "That's it, then you can send it to their room right away." Lao Dou thought about it for a while, had the same opinion, and ordered his mother to send breakfast in.
Kang Qirui waved his hand, quickly stopped his mother, pushed her back to her seat, and said: "Oh, Old Mother Dou, Azu and Diana are all adults, are you worried that they will be hungry? They had a wedding ceremony yesterday. "It's night, what time is it? How can I get up?" Kang Qirui's words made Zhu Wanling blush and her head almost dropped to the table. However, everyone nodded secretly after thinking about Kang Qirui's words. It was true that they couldn't get up on the second day of the wedding.
“Besides, Diana is a foreigner, and people pay more attention to privacy. I think we have to respect other people’s personalities and don’t just enter other people’s rooms. They are adults, and they are a couple in the room. It's possible to do anything inside. Let's just open the door and go in. How embarrassing is it to see something we shouldn't see?" Kang Qirui continued to persuade. In his memory, it was common practice for everyone to move out when Diana and Azu finally moved out. They walked in and out of their room, and then many things happened. Everyone nodded after hearing this, and Lao Dou even said: "Arui is right. Everyone will change their habits in the future. Everyone has a home and a room. There is indeed a lot of privacy in your own room. Everyone lives in it." When we are together, we must respect each other and have our own private space."
At this time, Azu and Diana also got up. As soon as Azu sat down, he said: "We. The two couples discussed it. In order to thank everyone for supporting our wedding yesterday, Diana and I stayed at home on the first day. In addition, Xiu Gu went back and there was no one to cook at noon, so we decided to have lunch today. Let's do it." Diana nodded and added: "Then I'm getting ready for the New Year. I decided that I will do the New Year decorations at home this year, but I also need everyone's help because I don't understand many New Year things. . ”
In this life, because of Kang Qirui’s obstruction and persuasion, Diana did not have any conflicts with anyone. Therefore, before her good mood for marriage was over, she began to take care of the housework. As you can see, she When something is done by someone else, I feel happy that I don’t have to do it myself.
At noon, Diana kicked her mother and second sister-in-law out of the kitchen who wanted to help. She closed the kitchen door, put on her headphones and started cooking. Azu was responsible for setting the dishes and chopsticks. Ayao saw this formation He asked in confusion: "Azu, you should use a knife and fork when eating Western food. How can you use chopsticks?"
"Even if I give you a knife and fork, you won't be able to use it. It's fine as long as you can eat it. There are so many requirements." "Azu complained, there are so many people in the family, where can he prepare so many knives and forks? It’s not like we eat Western food every day.
After a while, Diana came out with a pot of soup, "Here, the soup is ready." Kang Qirui looked at the milk-like white soup in the pot and asked, "Is this What’s the soup? It’s so white.”
“It’s made with mushrooms and cream.” “Oh? Cream can also be used to make soup, right?” Diana's Cantonese cuisine teacher frowned, always feeling weird. "Yes, it's delicious." Diana strongly recommended it, while Azu started to share the soup with everyone, "Let's try it first."
Everyone took a sip, and then frowned in unison. Head, the taste is really strange. Even Kang Qirui, who had stayed in Hong Kong City for two years, had a hard time accepting the taste of this cream soup. "This is an assorted salad." At this time, Diana brought another large pot of food.
"What is assorted salad?" Lao Dou didn't know what kind of dish it was. "Old Dou, the salad is just potatoes and tomatoes mixed with salad sauce. The salad sauce has cream in it and it tastes very good. Give it a try." Azu explained.
“It’s cream again?” The old woman frowned when she heard that there was cream again. "Boy, if you continue to breastfeed, I will become a wet nurse." The second brother also said jokingly. "Haha." Everyone was also amused by the second guy. Then Diana continued to serve dishes, including winter melon mixed with sugar and tomatoes mixed with pepper. These dishes were acceptable to Kang Qirui, who had eaten them several times when he was studying in Hong Kong City. .
But others can't accept it. They are all traditional Cantonese and carnivores. It's all cream and vegetables, isn't it pure torture? "Azu, these are all side dishes, right? Are there main dishes later?" Boss Guang asked tentatively. Azu nodded, and he and Diana went into the kitchen and took out two baskets of baguettes. "Yes, yes, here comes the main course."
Old Dou said to his mother in a low voice with a grimace on his face: " Grandma, keep an eye on her from now on and don't let her enter the kitchen." Mom quickly pulled Lao Dou away. Although she didn't know about this lunch, Diana's heart was still good and she was quite happy. . Whether it tastes good or not is one thing, but whether you have the heart to cook for the family is another matter. Mom can still tell the difference.
"Eat quickly, it's okay to eat occasionally." Mom advised Lao Dou, and she was also persuading everyone. If everyone doesn't move, Diana won't be able to get off the stage.
