Splendid peasant girl busy farming

7811 - Very sad

It is a small yellow croaker weighing half a catty.

"You can even catch yellow fish, uncle, you are so lucky!"

Blacksmith Luo's praise made Lao Yang feel elated, and he became more excited after tasting the fun of fishing. This time, he personally stringed earthworms into the fishhook as bait, and continued fishing.

Afterwards, fish took the bait one after another. We caught several crucian carp with long chopsticks, yellow crappie, small mullet, fool fish, crabs, lobsters, and a lot of miscellaneous fish.

Old Yang smiled happily, picked up the small fry and released them back into the fish pond, leaving only the big ones in the water basin.

When noon was approaching, Mrs. Sun was about to cook lunch, and came over to discuss with Yang Huazhong: "Do you want to make a few more dishes at noon and bring some old men over to have a drink together?"

Yang Huazhong sat in the main room all day long, smoking a cigarette one after another, with a lot of thoughts on his mind.

"When today is over, it will be fine. Today is the most difficult day for Dad." Yang Huazhong answered irrelevantly.

Mrs. Sun rubbed her apron with her hands, feeling very worried.

He glanced at the yard and said, "It's all over now, shouldn't I go to the fish pond to bring dad back?"

Yang Huazhong raised his head and looked into the yard: "Wait a minute, the people from the Zhang family who came out to urge the wedding party should be walking in the village right now, and when they bump into each other later, Dad will be in a bad mood again."

Before the wedding banquet starts, the host family will write the list of guests in black on a piece of red paper.

Then the person who came to help took the list and went door to door to urge the guests to come and take a seat, ready to open the table.

After the guests arrive and take their seats, a special person will come over to check the number of people, names, and seats at each table, tick off those who are present, and make other marks on those who are not present.

Going back to the banquet at night, and then going to invite guests, we must ensure that the guests who have given gifts will not be neglected or neglected.

Previously, Yang Huazhong had been staring at the entrance of the courtyard, and saw that the people from the Zhang family who were urging guests to drink the wedding wine had gone to the Luo family, so Yang Huazhong didn't want to pick up Lao Yang now, lest they bump into each other's embarrassment.

"Okay, let's go later." Sun said, just as he was about to turn around, Yu Xingkui suddenly came back from the outside.

Excitedly, there was a wooden basin in his hand.

"Third brother, hurry up and get something to catch the fish."

……

In the main room, Yang Huazhong and Mrs. Sun were overwhelmed with surprise when they saw the pile of lively fish.

"These... are all father's catches?" Yang Huazhong looked at the fish, couldn't believe it, and asked Yu Xingkui again.

Yu Xingkui wiped the sweat from his face, smiled and said: "It's all right, old Uncle Yang is lucky today, besides these fish, he also released a lot of small fry!"

"Good, good!" Yang Huazhong said.

"Is dad still happy?" Sun asked from the side.

Yu Xingkui said: "I'm so happy, I can't close my mouth with joy after catching so many fish."

"That's good, that's good!" Yang Huazhong said repeatedly.

"Why didn't dad come back with you?" He asked again.

"Old Uncle Yang is still fishing. He said he will be fishing all day today, so he sent me to bring the fish back for you to burn at noon. I will send you food later."

After a pause, Yu Xingkui added: "By the way, prepare two meals, and bring the other one to Brother Blacksmith."

Hearing that everything was fine with Old Yangtou, and that fishing was still going well, Yang Huazhong finally let go of his hunger for a whole day.

Hurry up and ask Mrs. Sun to clean up the fish and free up an empty basin for Yu Xingkui to take back.

Then, Mrs. Sun continued cooking non-stop, picking up the fish, and braised it in an iron pot with red pepper, ginger and garlic, and then put cornmeal cakes on it.

"Thanks to our father, we have a good meal at noon!" Sun said.

Yang Huazhong laughed from ear to ear: "I have to thank Brother Blacksmith."

Mrs. Sun also smiled and said, "I'll make a few more dishes later in the night, and I'll invite Brother Blacksmith to come over for dinner."

Yang Huazhong said: "This is good!"

As for the girl, it goes without saying that she would come over almost every day for a 'ceng meal', so there was no need to say hello.

And where is Yang Ruoqing, the girl who is 'neglected' by them at the moment, and what is she busy with?

Haha, she came here on behalf of the Luo family to congratulate Zhang Youfu on his marriage, and gave her a share of money, so she sat at the table with other women in the village and prepared to have a wedding banquet.

Mrs. Liu is also there.

Mrs. Liu didn't send any money to join the party. Mrs. Liu just followed the villagers to see the bride, and then stayed here.

When it was time to start the banquet, Liao Meiying, as a newlywed, wanted to invite a table of female relatives to have a banquet in the wedding room. Yang Ruoqing was there, and Mrs. Liu was also there.

At the same table are Dasun, Cuihua, Dayun, Xiaoqin and other familiar faces.

In addition, there are two female relatives of Zhang's mother's family.

As the only person at the table who didn't contribute money, Mrs. Liu was more open-minded than anyone else.

Sitting there with those on the left and those on the right, talking and laughing happily.

Yang Ruoqing smiled, looked at the wedding room, and nodded secretly.

Zhang Youfu really put his heart into it, there was a whole row of undulating cabinets next to the wall, brand new, painted with air-dried red paint, and pasted with big red happy characters.

On the wall and on the window, there are also big red happy characters, a brand new big bed, and two new beds of red and willow green quilts on the bed. The quilts are embroidered with mandarin ducks playing in the water.

Peanuts, longan, red dates and lotus seeds are sprinkled on the bed sheet embroidered with the dark pattern of many children and grandchildren...

Looking at the joyful attire in this room, Yang Ruoqing couldn't help but think of the scene when Yang Yongxian married Liao Meiying, which was similar to this.

It's just that although Liao Meiying was married for the first time at that time, her spirit was not as good as that of her second marriage.

why?
Perhaps it was because in the marriage contract with Yang Yongxian, Liao Meiying was on the weak side. Before she got married, Yang Yongxian got involved with Li Xiuxin's resurgence, and Liao Meiying also agreed to take a concubine.

So Liao Meiying's spirit is not as good as this one, and she is not confident, shy, and reserved.

But now Liao Meiying is like a phoenix on fire, a butterfly breaking out of its cocoon.

The woman who has come out of the hardships has long since shed the weakness of the past and has become as tough as rushes.

Especially the marriage between her and Zhang Youfu, it was the two who established a relationship foundation in adversity and then mustered up the courage to come together.

Liao Meiying must have participated in the layout of the wedding room and the style of the furniture, but she was too embarrassed to tell outsiders.

So when they got married today, Liao Meiying was wearing the bride's clothes, her hair was neatly combed, she was wearing festive flowers, and her face was slightly powdered. Although she was still a little shy, she greeted everyone with the attitude of a hostess.

Yang Ruoqing saw light in Liao Meiying's eyes.

This is how a woman should live.

Someone tugged her sleeve lightly, Yang Ruoqing knew it was Liu Shi without turning her head.

"What's wrong with Aunt Si?"

"Qing'er, did you notice? Meiying is a newlywed this time, but she looks better than last time, with a radiant complexion."
