Hello, I'm He Yuzhu

Chapter 402 The Hundredth Li Hongxia Finally Married (Subscribe)

In the following days, Chen Jinfeng hoarded three thousand catties of grain.

Li Hongxia donated most of the more than 1000 yuan that Sun Zhiqiang gave her, bought hundreds of catties of pork, wiped salt and hung it on the beams of the warehouse.

I bought eggs, duck eggs, countless, salted duck eggs and salted eggs with sauerkraut jars.

Afterwards, I bought a new sauerkraut jar and waited for the autumn vegetables to pickle sauerkraut.

All the pork was hung on the beams in the barn, and the grain was still piled up in Li Hongjun's east room. There were suddenly fifteen [-]-jin sacks in the room, and the room seemed a bit cramped.

Chen Jinfeng's deposit was also spent, and everyone was quietly waiting for the development of the situation.

Li Hongjun also took out the red carpet from the space, cleaned it, and covered his east room completely.

Looking at the festive red carpet, Feng Xiaomei felt refreshed. She had long been envious of the carpet in her sister-in-law's room.

Xiao Yuanyuan can also run around the room with her bare feet, and when her second daughter Fangfang grows up, she can crawl around the room.

"Hongjun, let's make a shoe rack like Hongxia's?"

"My wife has orders, how dare you disrespect her husband."

Li Hongjun also felt that a shoe rack should be placed at the door. With a carpet, it seems incomplete without a shoe rack.

Sun Zhiqiang is a very capable sister-in-law. When he learned that his uncle wanted a shoe rack, the carpenter who asked him to make furniture for him rushed to make a new shoe rack overnight.

The next day, Li Hongjun used the new shoe rack.

Seeing that the second day of September was getting closer, Li Hongjun went to work at night and started preparing for his sister's wedding during the day.

Chen Jinfeng also took advantage of Sun Zhiqiang and Li Hongxia's rest, and often took the two of them to the streets, shopping in department stores, and bought everything that needed to be bought.

The radio and sewing machine were all placed in Li Hongxia's west room, and even Li Hongjun's electric fan was taken away. Li Hongxia originally planned to let Sun Zhiqiang buy an electric fan too.

However, Chen Jinfeng ruthlessly pissed her off, seeing that the sky is getting cold, so I will talk about next year when I buy an electric fan.

Li Hongjun first took out ten big roosters and ten ducks from the space.

As for why not kill your own chickens?

Their own hens are all laying hens. If Li Hongjun dared to kill him, Chen Jinfeng would dare to let him know the taste of a mother's love like a mountain and fried bamboo shoots.

Then there is [-] catties of mutton each.

Ten fresh big carps, it’s not that he doesn’t want to use sea fish for his sister, but most of the sea fish are not alive. When he stocked up on sea fish before crossing, most of them were frozen goods. eat slowly.

Li Hongjun and Sun Zhiqiang also started to send wedding invitations to the leaders in the unit at the same time.

Because Sun Zhiqiang is the technical backbone of Xiehe Hospital, the leaders and colleagues are very respectful and agreed to come to the meeting.

The banquet is held at home, and there must be no room for ten tables, and there are five tables in the courtyard of Li Chunxia's house.

The first day of September, tomorrow is the wedding day.

In the end, Li Hongjun took out [-] live crabs, [-] catties of bamboo shrimps, [-] scallops, and [-] conch shells the size of a baby's fist.

It happened to be ten hard dishes.

Li Hongxia stared wide-eyed at the fresh seafood in the laundry tub, couldn't help covering her mouth, and exclaimed, "Wow, brother, where did you get so many seafood?"

Li Hongjun said stinkingly: "You don't care where you got it, chicken, fish, meat and eggs, beef and mutton, seafood, you just say that the ten dishes prepared for you by brother are hard or not and you're done!"

"Hard, those second-generation rich, second-generation officials, and the children of the big courtyard probably don't have such a good banquet!"

The vocabulary of the rich second generation and the second generation of officials was learned by Li Hongxia from her brother Li Hongjun. She was used to it, and her brother popped up a few new words from time to time.

Everything is ready, only the dishes and chopsticks are missing.

The Li family doesn't have that many tens of thousands of dollars.

"Don't be afraid!" Chen Jinfeng said, "I'll make an announcement in the evening, so that the neighbors who come to eat tomorrow will bring their own tables, chairs, benches, bowls, chopsticks and plates."

Li Hongjun looked at the time, it was too late for him to go to the night shift now.

"I'm going to work first, you all should rest early, you will be busy tomorrow."

Chen Jinfeng felt sorry for her son: "You can't ask for leave during the special period, how about I go to work for you at night?"

"Mom, forget it, I went to sleep in the factory, and came back in the middle of the night after cooking dinner!"

Li Hongxia suddenly remembered about the car.

"Brother, what about the car you promised me?"

Li Hongjun smiled and said: "I can't forget, I have already greeted Secretary Xie."

"But, you are too flamboyant!"

Li Hongxia went to Sun Zhiqiang's house tomorrow to wait to get married in order to be the first woman to get married in the work unit, just to show off to her colleagues in the car.

At the beginning, she wanted to get married in the workplace with a high profile, but was rejected by Li Hongjun. Too high profile, making publicity is not a good thing.

It stands to reason that recruiting a son-in-law does not require the wedding ceremony at all, but in order not to wrong Li Hongxia, the Li family also let her mess around with everything. After all, marriage is a major event in life. Not surprisingly, Li Hongjun will marry once in his life. Make her feel sorry.

Li Hongxia didn't care about that, she pouted: "Hmph, I can't marry anyone better than anyone else, but I just can't lower her head than Chen Ju."

Li Hongjun didn't bother to care about the conflicts between their women and went straight to work.

After Li Hongjun left, everyone went to Westinghouse to post happy words...
There are plastic fake flowers in vases in the room, ribbons are interspersed on the roof, and a pair of stickers of big-headed dolls are pasted on the walls.

On the road.

"Da Shuan, if you have nothing to do at night, find a place to have a good rest and recharge your spirits. Everyone will go to work tomorrow, and Hongxia's table will depend on the two of us!"

"Don't worry, I'll go to sleep in the back when I get to the factory."

Because of the special period, everyone is so busy that Li Hongxia's wedding can only be held at night, and everyone can come to support him after get off work.

When they arrived at the factory, Li Hongjun and Dashuan went to find a place to recharge their batteries.

Everyone in the kitchen knew that Li Hongxia would get married tomorrow, and everyone could understand that Li Hongjun was the shopkeeper every day. Everyone was used to it, and what they understood was Dashuan.

In the middle of the night, Li Hongjun rubbed his eyes and face, and then woke up Dashuan.

The two went back with red eyes.

After sleeping until dawn, Li Hongjun got up and found that there were many people in the house, and everyone was using an earthen stove to boil water to molt the chickens and ducks.

Li Hongjun built two simple stoves in the yard before.

Li Chunxia brought Zhou Mei to help, Captain Zhao also came to the city from the countryside to help with his wife, and Zhao Aiguo's mother also brought her children.

Er Shuan's daughter-in-law is fine at home, and she came earlier than anyone else.

The women in the neighborhood also took the initiative to extend a hand of friendship.

After finishing the chicken and duck, Li Hongjun was about to throw away the chicken and duck feathers, but was stopped by a woman.

"Red Army, don't throw this hair away!"

"That's right, there are door-to-door collectors, and it costs two cents a catty!"

"If you don't sell it, you can keep it as a feather duster or a feather mat..."

Li Chunxia and Chen Jinfeng packed up the chicken and duck feathers and put them aside.

Li Hongjun teaches everyone to brush crabs, pick shrimp threads, clean seafood, steam crabs, and make garlic prawns from bamboo prawns.

Finally, clean up the fish, save the fish scales to make salt and pepper fish scales.

All morning, the two earthen stoves kept on steaming hundreds of catties of white flour steamed buns.

At noon, Li Hongjun stewed pork and vermicelli, and rewarded everyone with big steamed buns.

In the afternoon, I started to cook. The first dish was sweet and sour carp, because the fish is not afraid of cold, and the temperature is not low now, so it will not be cold after a while on the table.

The second course is beer duck.

The third course is chicken stew with mushrooms.

The fourth course is braised pork.

The fifth course is stewed persimmon with beef.

The sixth course is mutton radish.

Seventh course: steamed crab, two per person.

The eighth course: steamed prawns with minced garlic.

Ninth dish: garlic scallops.

The tenth dish: conch dipped in sauce.

After finishing everything, seeing that it was time to get off work, Secretary Xie also drove away.

Li Hongjun was going to drive to pick up the bride. Seeing that Mr. Xie didn't write the ceremony account, he asked Secretary Xie, the leading secretary, to make a cameo appearance.

Li Hongjun hurried to drive the newcomers back.

When I got home, everyone had already arrived, and everyone I knew was smoking in the yard, chatting, and took the opportunity to get close to each other.

Everyone noticed a car parked at the door, and when they saw Li Hongxia coming down from it, wearing a red cheongsam and high heels, the guests had different thoughts.

The leaders of Xiehe Hospital couldn't help but glance at Li Jiagao. Li Hongxia's wedding room was full of everything, and the young couple each had a bicycle.

This meant that the Li family was well-off, and Li Gui, the deputy director of a ten-thousand-person factory, was still quite bluffing, but after seeing the car, the leaders of Xiehe Hospital raised the status of the Li family in their hearts to another level.

Cars are very expensive, and when you see the license plate, you know that this car is the car of the leader above. It is impossible for ordinary people to borrow this car for appearance.

Everyone who came to the wedding banquet has this kind of thinking. It would be a lie to say that they are not envious. Many people have never even touched a car in this era.

Chen Ju in the crowd was even more constipated. Li Hongxia's wedding far exceeded her expectations.

She knew that Li Hongxia's wedding banquet would definitely exceed her own, but she didn't expect that there would be a gap between heaven and earth.

She is married and a bicycle is enough for her to show off.

But Li Hongxia has two bicycles.

She married four meat, four vegetarian and eight dishes, and Li Hongjun had ten hard dishes, chicken, duck, fish, and seafood, all of which were not comparable to her.

More importantly, there are three turns and one sound in the house.

She even got in a car, how could she be proud in front of Li Hongxia in the future?
It is conceivable that she, Chen Ju, will still be inferior and short in front of Li Hongxia in the future.

When everyone was assembled, Li Gui opened the table in a hurry.

At first, Li Hongjun was afraid that there would not be enough seats for ten tables, but he didn't expect so many people to come, so the workers from the cafeteria came to two seats. normal.

The leaders of Xiehe Hospital are at the same table.

There are more colleagues, almost all of Sun Zhiqiang's department came, except those on duty.

Li Hongxia's colleagues also came, except those who stayed at the nurse's station on duty.

Neighbors, relatives, ten tables of banquets will be enough.

Secretary Xie naturally wanted to sit at the main table.

Everyone looked at Secretary Xie, who was wearing Zhongshan Zhongshan, and couldn't help secretly guessing his identity.

But Li Hongjun would not explain it to everyone, but in order to raise the value of his sister, Li Hongjun took the initiative to toast.

"Brother Xie, brother respects you, thank you for saving face and attending my sister's wedding banquet!"

Then Li Hongjun returned the car keys to Secretary Xie in public: "Now, return it to the original owner!"

The words fall.

Everyone who listened with pricked up ears looked at Secretary Xie, thinking about something carefully.

"Why are we brothers being polite!"

Secretary Xie drank and handed over the account book and money to him.

"The task you entrusted to me has been successfully completed!"

Immediately afterwards, Secretary Xie took out two red envelopes from his pocket.

"this is mine!"

"This is the leader's intention!"

Li Hongjun wanted to refuse, but Secretary Xie spoke faster: "The leader said, you are not allowed to refuse, you take what is given to you."

Li Hongjun put the red envelope in his pocket: "Go back and say thank you to the leader for me, I will visit him when I have time."

Secretary Xie bid farewell to Li Hongjun when he was halfway through eating and drinking.

The leader is still working in the unit, so he has to go back and guard.

Li Hongjun expressed his understanding, Li Gui and Chen Jinfeng also stood up, and even a couple of newcomers followed to send Secretary Xie outside the gate.

Secretary Xie left, and many people began to use words to test and inquire about Secretary Xie's identity, but the Li family kept silent, which made people very curious. Some people scratched their heads and couldn't guess Secretary Xie's identity.

The couple's toast had to continue, and Li Hongxia came to the table of her colleagues.

"Come, come, sisters, eat and drink well, treat yourself as your own home!"

Li Hongxia held the wine glass: "Chen Ju, let's have a drink?"

No matter how much Chen Ju cursed Li Hongxia in her heart, she couldn't admit her cowardice on the surface. Instead, she congratulated Li Hongxia with a smile, and said something that was not sincere.

"Hongxia, I wish you an early son and a happy union for a hundred years!"

Seeing that Chen Ju, who was at odds with her on weekdays and was constantly comparing herself, conceded defeat in disguise, Li Hongxia only felt refreshed.

It's not that Li Hongxia wants to make Chen Ju look bad, it's just that the youngest daughter has a temperament.

The drink lasted very late, and Sun Zhiqiang was also drunk too much. He was carried to the house by Li Hongjun and Dashuan, and he wondered if it would delay the wedding night.

Although everyone teased him that Sun Zhiqiang was the door-to-door son-in-law, Sun Zhiqiang really didn't care. He was satisfied if he could marry the goddess he was in school.

When the guests dispersed and the Li family cleaned up the mess, the neighbors planned to bring back a generation of Zheluo, but the plates were empty, and even the soup was dipped in steamed buns by the big guys.

In these years, every household is in difficulty, which of the rich delicacies is not open to eat now?

After tidying up, it was only in the middle of the night. Li Hongjun didn't go to work at night, and Dashuan went to the cafeteria to guard him after dinner.

Behind closed doors, Chen Jinfeng is a fan of big money, and Li Hongxia is a fan of small money.

The two girls were sitting cross-legged on the kang, looking at the ledger for money.

After counting, Chen Jinfeng said to his family: "I lost it!"

"For the ten tables of banquets in our house, it would be nice to get half of the money back!"

Li Hongjun took out the two red envelopes in his pocket and handed them to Shen Jinfeng: "Mom, take a look at the money and put it in the account book. We have to pay it back in the future!"

Li Hongxia took the account book and looked at it carefully: "Captain Zhao's family actually gave ten yuan!"

Li Gui sipped tea and rescued him, and interjected, "Brother Zhao is a good man!"

Li Hongxia looked anxiously at the money in Chen Jinfeng's hand, hesitated to speak.

How could Chen Jinfeng not know the little Jiujiu in her heart.

"You are married, although you still live at home, you are the daughter-in-law of Ren Sun's family!"

"This money! Mom will give it to you. You and Xiaosun's salary is not low. After this money is given to you, don't spend it indiscriminately. Keep it for emergencies!"

With little stars in Li Hongxia's eyes, she kept nodding.

Chen Jinfeng gave the money to Li Hongxia and kept the ledger.

"I'll keep the account book. From now on, your father and your brother will pay the favor for you. At the same time, you and your wife will have to do it yourself."

Li Hongjun looked at the time and couldn't help interrupting Chen Jinfeng who was still chattering.

"Mom, Hongxia's wedding night today, check what time it is, pack up and go to sleep!"

When Li Hongxia returned to the Westinghouse, Sun Zhiqiang complained that she was thirsty and poured water for her husband. After drinking the water, Sun Zhiqiang regained his energy.

What happened after that is not enough for outsiders to understand.
