On the sixth day of the Lunar New Year, the weather is getting warmer and the sun is shining warmly on me.

Seeing that it was almost noon, Sun Chengren and his family walked slowly towards the village square.

He is over 50 years old, and his parents are old. Although he has brothers and sisters from his hometown to take care of him, he still has to come back every year to honor his parents during the Chinese New Year.

Especially this time, I met a distant nephew who was getting married, so I stayed at home for two more days, planning to go back after the wedding banquet.

The relatives in my hometown are doing well, and every family has built a new building. We are all acquaintances from childhood to adulthood, and they are very warm when they meet.

Along the way, someone from every house would chat with Lao Sun, and his daughter, Sun Xiaoshi, stood beside her with a smile on her face.

By the time we arrived at the wedding venue, everything was ready.

The shed was set up and the tables and chairs were set up. At a glance, there were about thirty tables.

There was a stage set up in the center, and bright red roses were placed in bundles around it.

Flower stands were also placed around the venue, and a red carpet was laid out on the entire ground.

There were bunches of red balloons tied to the shed, which was very festive.

There are also a bunch of firecrackers and fireworks piled up outside, ready to be set off when the feast is served.

"Oh, it's quite impressive."

While watching, Sun Chengren nodded secretly in his mind. This wedding was really well-arranged. It was very festive and luxurious in the village. This nephew's family should be in pretty good condition.

Generally, for wedding banquets in rural areas, the groom's house starts to get busy the day before.

In the morning, I went to the market to buy vegetables and drinks, and in the afternoon I was busy picking vegetables, cooking vegetables, and decorating the wedding room.

In the evening, we had dinner, set off fireworks, watched a theater troupe, sang, danced, etc., all in one line, and the fun didn't end until late at night.

For the wedding banquet the next day, guests started arriving one after another in the morning. When it was almost noon, everyone arrived, and the square suddenly became very lively, with chatter everywhere.

"Oh, this wedding is beautifully decorated."

"No, generally wedding banquets have 16 dishes, but today there are 24 dishes. It's very grand."

"It seems that the successful family has indeed made a fortune by doing business outside. I heard that they have bought houses in the county and provincial capitals. No wonder they spend so much money on getting married."

"The woman is a girl from the city. She has good conditions and is pretty."

"Oh, this is Chengren, long time no see. This is your little poem? She looks so beautiful. When are you getting married?"

Sun Xiaoshi, who was looking around, turned her head in confusion.

When you were talking about your wedding, why did the conversation suddenly come to her?

Sun Chengren chuckled: "She is still young and just graduated from college this year. Don't worry, we will talk about it in two years."

While talking, he found a table to sit down and continued chatting with other guests at the table.

"It's already noon, why hasn't the person who picked up the bride come back yet?"

"Hurry, hurry. The cannons will be fired when we reach the entrance of the village. You will definitely hear them."

"I heard that the bride is very beautiful. She looks like a big star. Let's get to know her later."

As the time got closer and closer, everyone became more and more anxious and stopped chatting much. They all stretched their necks and looked towards the entrance of the village, waiting to see the legendary beautiful bride.

Not long after, there was a rumble in the distance.

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief instantly, and their faces were full of joy.

"I heard the voice, the bride is here."

"Let's go and see the bride~"

Children love to join in the fun. After hearing the sound, they all ran to the entrance of the village to watch.

The adults were relatively stable and sat at the banquet, waiting for the bride and groom to come over.

Soon, a wedding car slowly drove over, with eye-catching flowers placed on the front of the car. At the front was a luxury car, with more than a dozen of them.

The wedding car circled the square and stopped.

A pair of young people in red Chinese dresses got off the carriage with smiles on their faces and walked onto the stage amidst the deafening sound of firecrackers.

Festive music also sounded, and all kinds of fireworks continued to rise into the sky.

Sun Xiaoshi attended a rural wedding banquet for the first time. She was so happy that she took out her mobile phone and kept logging on.

"Hey, there's no one here, so just sit here."

A tall, thin young man wearing glasses, who seemed to have come with the groom, saw an empty seat here and walked over to sit down.

When he saw the young and lively Sun Xiaoshi next to him, his eyes suddenly lit up. He smiled and said, "Hello, my name is Gao Yuan. I am the groom's classmate. You are all his relatives, right?"

"Well, just call me Xiaoshi." Sun Xiaoshi nodded and was about to say something when suddenly a strong odor assaulted her nostrils and she felt like she was suffocating. The smile on her face suddenly froze.

She slowly leaned back on the chair, feeling less uncomfortable now.

Gao Yuan didn't realize it, he was still smiling and kept looking for topics to chat.

A faint stench kept coming, and Sun Xiaoshi held her breath, her whole body felt bad.

But she couldn't just say "You have bad breath, stay away from me", or even make it too obvious.

We can only move to the other side inch by inch, trying to create a suitable distance, so that we can breathe quietly.

Fortunately, while I was speaking on the stage, the dishes were served quickly.

She forced a smile: "You have been busy all morning, so you must be hungry. Let's eat first."

After finishing speaking, he quickly buried his head in eating without waiting for the other party to speak.

Although banquets in the countryside are not as luxurious and exquisite as those in big hotels, they are all solid dishes with ample portions and plenty of oil and water.

As soon as it was served on the table, a mouth-watering aroma instantly wafted out, and the guests' eyes suddenly lit up and their mouths watered.

For this wedding banquet, they didn't even eat much breakfast. They had been hungry all morning and their stomachs were growling.

Anyway, the bride has seen it all, but the most important thing is to do the work.

Like a snake coming out of its hole, a pair of tachyons pounced directly on the yellow dragon, picked up a large piece of meat in an instant, and returned home with a full load.

In the entire square, there were thirty tables of people eating enthusiastically, and the atmosphere was extremely lively.

Sun Chengren opened a bottle of liquor and drank slowly with a few familiar cousins.

Gao Yuan was very busy, with tachyons in his hands constantly attacking, but he kept chatting non-stop, with a grain of rice popping out of the corner of his mouth from time to time.

Sun Xiaoshi maintained an awkward but polite smile on her face, ate her meal in silence, and replied a few words here and there, complaining in her heart.

"Damn it, how come this guy has bad breath and doesn't realize it? He still likes to chat with people so much. Ah, it feels so uncomfortable. I can't even breathe. Woohoo~"

Finally, after the bride and groom had toasted, the banquet was almost done, and the guests began to disperse.

Sun Xiaoshi immediately stood up and said goodbye as if she was a great admirer.

"Sister Xiaoshi, we have such a good conversation, why not add WeChat." Gao Yuan burped and took out his mobile phone.

"Okay." Sun Xiaoshi readily agreed in order to escape as soon as possible.

After the two exchanged WeChat messages, she pulled Lao Sun's sleeve and signaled with her eyes.

"You girl, why are you so ignorant? You didn't notice that I was chatting with your third uncle. You and your mother should go back first."

Sun Chengren waved his hand and said with some displeasure.

"Ah, I'm in a hurry, I have to go back quickly." Sun Xiaoshi made an excuse, grabbed her mother, and ran away in an instant.

Gao Yuan looked at Sun Xiaoshi's hurriedly leaving figure, smiled nonchalantly, sat down on Xiaoshi's seat, and came over.

"Uncle, you guys are drinking. Actually, I like this one. How about we have a drink too."

When he opened his mouth, thick bad breath came out with his breath.

Sun Chengren was stunned for a moment, then stood up with a start.

"Well, I suddenly remembered that I have something to do at home, so I have to leave quickly. Let's continue drinking in the evening."

Watching him leave with windy footsteps, Gao Yuan couldn't help but frown and scratched his head in confusion.

Sun Chengren walked on the road with long strides. Thinking of the stench, he couldn't help but feel sick.

Only then did he understand why his always well-behaved and sensible daughter left in such a hurry, and deeply regretted not following him.

As soon as I entered the house, I heard my daughter complaining.

"Mom, you don't know, the person sitting next to me has a bad mouth. It's so unbearable that I couldn't even finish the meal. I have to eat some more snacks to suppress this disgusting feeling.

.”

Sun Chengren shook his head, walked over and scolded: "Now that we are back, don't talk behind people's backs. This guy has such bad breath, maybe he has a gastrointestinal problem, and he doesn't want to."

Unexpectedly, his daughter glanced at him and immediately gloated: "Dad, aren't you going to continue drinking? You won't be smoked back too. Then you have the nerve to tell me."

"You..." Sun Chengren was suddenly speechless, glared at her fiercely, and walked towards the house.

Three days later, Lao Sun and his family returned to Kunshi.

After dinner in the evening, while sitting in front of the TV, Sun Chengren suddenly felt a churn in his stomach and a feeling of acid rising up.
