Chapter 134 Celebration
The old man's words made everyone laugh. The old man pulled his son, nephew and nephew to drink together. Even the old man who was guarding the door called in, and then talked about sending off the wedding while eating.
Here, Zhu and Han were all very full at Yue’s house, so they didn’t serve the table again, but sat next to them and talked, and everyone was talking about today’s marriage.
"You can't say it, the Yue family's banquet is really good. Not to mention all chicken, duck, fish and meat, there are even seafood, which is rare for us. There are no one who goes to the banquet, not to praise it." Chen Tianshun said.
When the old man heard this, he nodded, "That's good. This means that they value our Jingya. In the future, Jingya will not suffer any losses in his Yue family."
Zhixin's cousin toasted Zhixin with a glass of wine, "Zhixin, I've seen it today. This wealthy family is really not comparable to ordinary people. Jingya's marriage is well-consistent. You have lived a good life in recent years, and our family has benefited a lot. Your sister-in-law and niece-in-law raised this year, so I really made some money. If you have any problems in the future, let alone tell me. Our Xu family has only two relatives, so don't break off contact. If your brother asks you for help, you won't refuse."
Zhixin smiled, "What the big brother said? We are brothers from a family. No matter what happens, the big brother just talks. As long as the brother can do it, he will definitely not refuse."
Of course, the younger generations like Jinghan and Wenxuan were alone. Zixuan sat between Wenhan and Wenxuan, and faced Jinghan while having dinner. His hot eyes couldn't help but look at his beloved girl.
Zixuan felt a little embarrassed when he saw Jinghan's quilt. His face was red and he lowered his head to eat rice. Wencheng sat next to Jinghan. When he saw this, he quickly picked up a lot of dishes for Jinghan, and then looked up and glared at Zixuan. "There is time in the future, so you have to let her not eat in the meal?"
Zixuan smiled embarrassedly, then withdrew his gaze and tried to compete with the food in front of him.
Jingwan felt funny, but she couldn't laugh it out loud. She finally held it in a hurry. Jingxian was young and had been playing with Wenxuan, Wenchang and Mingyu outside, so she didn't know what was going on at home. Looking at the people on the table, she felt a little strange, but she didn't know what was going on, so she asked Jingwan, "Sister, what's wrong?"
Jingwan shook her head, "It's nothing, hurry up and have a meal."
Soon, the women and children finished eating, leaving only the men's table drinking. Everyone first cleaned the two tables on the floor, let them drink slowly. After packing up, the women ran to Xue's house to chat.
Wen Han and Zixuan returned to the study room to read, Wen Cheng also went to the study room, and Yumei was with He, waiting for his father to finish his drink. Jingxian, Wen Xuan, Wen Xing, Jinghe, Mingyu, Ziwen and others ran outside to play. Jinghan and Jingwan returned to their house and collected all the accounts of Jinghan's marriage this time.
"I don't know. It turns out that marrying a girl will cost a lot of money." Jinghan sighed at the last account calculated and looked at the dowry, not counting. Just a banquet for weddings, a chef, a porter, renting various household items, and rewards for drummers and wedding women. These are more than fifty taels. Here, the pig was sent by Yue's family, and we killed two of them. The chickens and geese are all from our own family, and some vegetables are the same. If you buy them all, it will not be nearly one hundred taels of silver? Oh my god, this is really a waste, right?"
After hearing Jinghan's words, Jingwan couldn't help laughing, "Second sister, you are really a fan of money. Why don't you think about it? Our family has received a lot of gifts. As long as you come to have a wedding banquet, which one does not give you something or money? All of these are counted together, so there must be a hundred and eighty taels?"
The two sisters took out the accounts separately. Jinghan was in charge of taking out the money, and Jingwan was in charge of collecting it in, so Jingwan said so. When Jinghan heard it, she quickly took the booklet in Jingwan and then looked at it carefully. Most people came with red envelopes, which is really true. Some of them were given gifts, namely, rulers, bronze mirrors, combs or dressing boxes. They had to be counted, but they could have about eighty taels.
"Don't look at how much you receive now, when someone has something to do, we will also have to return gifts. And we have to reply more. These are the ones that look good at that time." Jinghan shook his head and said. "When people get along with each other, they have to go back and forth like this, otherwise it will be boring."
"By the way, second sister, your marriage is settled, can't you go back to the mountain? The eldest sister at home is married, and you should take over the family affairs. It's better to be in the town in the future and accompany me. Jingxian is better in the town as well, so let's not separate us."
"Let's talk about it then. I'm fine at home, but Jingxian's best bet on the mountain. In the past few years, I want Jingxian to take care of the affairs on the mountain. Jingwan, you don't understand, I don't want Jingxian to come back to the town." Jinghan hesitated for a moment and decided to let Jingxian return to the mountain.
"Why? Isn't Jingxian very good in town? I'm not relieved to leave her alone in the mountain." Jingwan didn't understand very much.
"Oh, do you think I'm willing? You don't even look at Jingxian's appearance. She has become better and better in the past few years. If she gets older, she may really become a beautiful beauty who is so beautiful that she is so beautiful. I'm afraid that her reputation will spread too early. Who knows what will happen to you? It's better to let her be on the mountain for the time being, and the camp will be about to be launched. In the future, there will be fewer people who will meet Jingxian. There is no way, so I can only come up with such a way." Jinghan said the worries in her heart.
Jingwan had never thought about it before, but now she was shocked when she heard Jinghan's words. "Oh, second sister, how is this good? If you don't say it, I'm afraid no one in our family can think of it." Jingwan was a little anxious and didn't know what to do about this.
"Don't worry, Jingxian is only twelve years old this year, how many years will it be before she grows up? Let's start paying attention from now on, hide her in the mountain for the time being, and when she gets older, she will find her a good family for her to marry. Once the girl gets married, no one will think about it, and then we will be relieved." Jinghan could only comfort Jingwan like this. "Besides, the eldest brother and brother-in-law are all scholars. If you go to the exam, you may be able to pass the imperial examination. In that case, our family will be considered a similar family in this town. I think even if someone wants to make trouble, I have to think more."
"I hope this is the case. I will take the time to tell my parents about this and make them understand it. We have been peaceful in the past few years, and I hope nothing else will happen." Jingwan was still a little worried, but she couldn't think of any good way.
"Let's not tell Jingxian about this. This little girl is very smart. I want to exercise her well and she can have some skills in protecting herself in the future." When Jinghan was on the mountain, she had to take Jingxian to practice martial arts with her every day, just to give her more skills. Even if she encounters something in the future, she can still be self-defense.
"Second sister, thank you for thinking so thoughtfully for Jingxian. I never thought about these things." Jingwan said with some shame.
"It's all my sisters, why do you say this?" Jinghan said with a smile.
The two sisters were talking, Wenxuan and Jingxian came in, and Ziwen said, "Sister Jinghan, my father and others have finished drinking and are going home. Let me tell you, my sister and my mother are holding my father, and he is drunk."
Of course Jinghan had to go over and take a look. This was already the future in-laws' family. So she put on her shoes and followed everyone to the front. Sure enough, she saw Uncle Lin drinking a little too much. Wenhan and He were supporting him. When Yumei saw Jinghan, she said, "Jinghan, go back to the village to play when you have time. Xiaoxiu and the others miss you very much. In two years, everyone will go their separate ways, and it is difficult to meet."
Jinghan nodded, "Okay, I will go back." Then he said to He, "Uncle Lin, Aunt Lin, you can go back slowly. Zixuan, take good care of them."
Zixuan nodded with a smile, "Don't worry." Then everyone left the Xu family.
"Zixuan, wait, drive my ox cart back. After two days, we will have to go back to the county. Just drive the ox cart back." Wenhan called Zixuan and drove his ox cart out.
Zixuan was not polite, and helped his father to the car, and then He led Yumei and Ziwen into the car. Zixuan raised his whip and walked slowly forward.
As soon as the Lin family left, Zhixin's cousin's family also wanted to say goodbye. Chen wanted to keep them for another night, but Zhixin's cousin said that there were still some things at home and could not live here anymore. Chen had no choice but to bring them some melon seeds and candy, and some delicious dishes prepared at the banquet that were useless.
Zhixin's cousin's family came to drive a ox cart. Now that he has set up the ox cart, Zhixin's cousin drove the ox cart, said goodbye to everyone, and left.
The remaining brothers Chen Tianfu and Chen Tianshun are farther apart. They leave at this time and can only get home in the middle of the night. So they have to stay here for one night and go home tomorrow morning.
"Merry Lin, you and Yingzi gave Huixin some vegetables and other things to deliver to Huixin. Huixin and his wife didn't come here today. Yesterday Huixin said that Xiao Chuqing seemed to be uncomfortable and a little annoying. Today, she couldn't even come to Qingnian." Chen was thinking about her daughter's family and asked her daughter-in-law to come over and take a look.
The Xue, Zhu and Han sister-in-law brought a lot of things to Huixin's house. Unexpectedly, the child was crying and making a fuss at Huixin's house. Huixin held the child and walked back and forth on the ground.
"What's wrong? Why is Chu Qing so a big fuss?" Xue quickly stepped forward to take the child and asked.
