Take Arada back to the past

Chapter 773, Wedding

I chose the weekend specifically today because many people don’t have much time on weekdays.

As time went by, relatives began to come over one after another.

"Aunt, uncle!"

Looking at the tired couple, Yang Xiaole greeted them with a smile.

I don’t have much interaction with my uncle-in-law Wang Shun.

It only happens during festivals or when something happens.

Wang Shun looked at him and said with a smile: "You looked like a child before, but now you are married. Time flies!"

Yang Xiaole smiled and said, "Yes, uncle-in-law, isn't my cousin married too?"

The other party has three children.

The eldest brother was already married, but he didn't attend the wedding; his parents went instead.

Seeing this, the aunt smiled and said, "Okay, go and do your thing! I'll go help your mother!"

"Okay, okay! Aunt, I'm sorry for the poor hospitality. Please forgive me for that!"

Yang Xiaole agreed with a smile.

There are a lot of people here today, so it’s really not suitable for small talk.

Seeing this, the aunt rolled her eyes at him and said, "Little guy, why are you being so polite to your aunt? Go and do your own thing!"

He said hello and left with his men.

Then more people came over.

My uncle and his wife also came with their two children.

Chen Dalin came here alone.

"Godson!"

After coming over, Chen Dalin shouted with a smile.

Yang Xiaole was speechless when he heard this. This guy called him his godson every time he saw him.

"Uncle Chen, my elder brother is pretty good, why don't you take him in? He will definitely be happy to do it!"

Chen Dalin laughed happily when he heard this and said, "Hey, I've decided on you! Okay, go and do your work, I'll go find your uncle!"

After saying that, he left happily.

Lin Junsheng and Hu Zi also came over.

Most people don’t know the two of them, and the relationship between the three of them cannot be publicized too much.

After a brief greeting, he smiled and said, "I'll trouble you and Hu Zi later!"

Lin Junsheng said with a smile: "Hey! Uncle Hao, why are you being so polite to me? Huzi drove the truck here today, let's go pick someone up together later."

"Oh, okay! I'll be busy in a while, so please eat and drink well when you're done. Don't be polite!"

Hu Zi laughed cheerfully and said, "Don't worry, I won't be polite to you."

"Hey, good!"

Yang Xiaole exchanged a few pleasantries and then went to greet others.

Wheat and her husband.

Even Xiaoli's boyfriend Wu Gang came.

As time passed, the time had come. Under the urging of everyone, Yang Xiaole went out wearing a big red flower.

Naturally, there were several big and small guys following them.

Wu Gang, Xia Tian, ​​the children from my uncle's family, Lin Junsheng and his brothers, and Li Yuanchao also came today, and many other people also came.

The eldest sister and the youngest sister are girls, so theoretically they should not follow.

But now it’s not so particular anymore.

Most of them took large trucks.

Yang Xiaole followed Lin Junsheng in a taxi to pick up Qu Ying.

The car arrived and I just got off.

Someone at the door saw him wearing a big red flower.

Knowing that this was the time to pick up the bride, the firecrackers were lit directly.

Crackling.

The smell of gunpowder smoke filled the air.

Seeing this, the eldest sister and Xiaoli seemed to be playing music.

"Sailing the sea depends on the helmsman"

This is the song that is almost always played at weddings nowadays.

It was no longer customary to block the door, so I entered the yard surrounded by the crowd.

When I came to the main room, I saw a middle-aged woman in her forties, wearing new clothes and with a rough skin.

His hair has turned a little gray.

Without thinking, you know this is Qu Ying's mother.

The voice quieted down, and the other party looked at him nervously and said with a smile: "You must be Yang Xiaole! I am Xiaoying's mother, I..."

I felt a little embarrassed at the end and stopped talking.

Yang Xiaole understood the other party's feelings.

After all, this is a special period and her identity is somewhat embarrassing.

Then she smiled and said, "Mom! I'm here to pick up Xiaoying. We won't have a wedding banquet here. Let's all get in the car and go to my house and have it together!"

Everyone happily agreed upon hearing this.

This was all agreed upon in advance.

Seeing this, Qu's mother nodded slightly.

"Okay! Then go pick up Xiaoying!"

Yang Xiaole smiled when he saw this, looked at the aunt next to him, and said with a smile: "Director Sun, you are here today too!"

"Hey, you didn't notify me, so I came here uninvited. Can I ask for a glass of wedding wine?"

"Hey, Director Sun, look at what you said, blame me, blame me! If you drink two more glasses later, I will punish myself with three glasses!"

Hearing this, Director Sun said with a smile: "Okay, go pick them up!"

Yang Xiaole left after hearing this.

Went to the inner room.

At this time, Qu Ying was already wearing the same green military uniform as him, with a big red flower on her chest.

"Comrade Qu Ying, I'm here to pick you up!"

Qu Ying stood up somewhat embarrassedly, and the two of them went to the living room.

Above the living room, there is a huge portrait of an old man.

The next step is naturally the oath.

Nowadays, people get married not with their parents, but with the elderly.

The two men wore red badges on their chests, held ruby ​​books in their hands, faced the New Year pictures, raised their hands and began to take the oath.

"Dear old man, I have taken Comrade Qu Ying away today. We all come from all corners of the country and have come together for a common goal of revolution. If we want to carry the revolution through to the end, we must use revolutionary methods to resolutely, thoroughly and completely eliminate everything... and unwaveringly persist in overthrowing..."

According to the rules of that era, the oath began.

Qu Ying naturally also made a similar oath.

After the oath, Yang Xiaole turned to look at Qu's mother: "Mom! Let's go to our house together! My parents already know that you are coming here today."

Upon hearing this, Qu's mother hesitated for a moment.

But Director Sun next to him said with a smile: "Okay, I'll go with you! Don't worry."

Hearing this, Qu's mother was relieved: "Okay, I'll be back after dinner!"

When Yang Xiaole saw this scene, he nodded secretly.

I didn't even think about asking Director Sun to come over.

In this area, the director of the street office is the most powerful person, and no one dares to mess with her.

With her around, no one dares to gossip about her in front of her.

Director Sun has been working for so many years and is very experienced, otherwise he would not have simply been sidelined but sent to labor reform.

Seeing this, Lin Junsheng started shouting, and those who were free began to move their belongings into the car.

Not a lot of stuff.

Qu Ying had only six or seven colleagues, and they were all taken away in two cars.

As firecrackers rang out, the car rushed towards Yangrou Hutong.

When I got home, there was naturally another burst of firecrackers.

When the group came back, the courtyard became lively.

Yang Xiaole carried the person into the room.

Then he took off the big red flower on his chest and said, "Okay, I'll take you out for a toast later, and we'll be done after dinner. There are fewer people at night."

At this time, the wedding meal is not just a one-time meal. According to the old custom, the meal would start yesterday evening and continue until tonight. When people arrive, the dishes will be served.

Qu Ying picked the big red flower and said, "Don't drink too much later! It's bad for your health."

"Hey! Don't worry, I know my alcohol tolerance and I won't get drunk."

He had never drunk much alcohol, so he didn't know how much he could drink.

But people are people after all.

Even if there is well water, it is probably impossible to drink it all the time, after all, it takes time to consume alcohol.

"I know, but you should drink less!"

"Okay, don't worry."

After Yang Xiaole finished speaking, he looked at Qu's mother who had just come in and said with a smile: "You talk to Mom. By the way, when is Mom leaving? I will buy her a ticket in advance."

"Mom, I've bought the tickets for tomorrow night!"

"So soon, why don't you stay a few more days!"

"There's no room at home. I have no choice. The tickets have already been bought."

Hearing this, Yang Xiaole thought about it and stopped trying to persuade her: "Okay then! Go shopping with mom tomorrow and see if there's anything you can buy and bring something back home. I'll give you some tickets later."

"Hey, don't, don't, you two just got married, there's a lot of life ahead of you! Our Corps has built a lot of food bases in recent years, and the conditions are not that difficult now, so don't send me anything in the future."

Seeing this, Qu's mother quickly refused.

Yang Xiaole looked at Qu Ying. He didn't want to argue, so he smiled and said, "Then you decide on the arrangements!"

Upon hearing this, Qu Ying smiled and agreed.

"Okay, then go do your work and I'll be here in a bit!"

"okay!"

Yang Xiaoxia agreed, said hello and went out.

……

"Xiaoying, Xiaole is fine! You should live a good life in the future and stop being so petty! Do you hear me?"

In the room, Qu's mother watched people leave and talked to her daughter while holding her hand.

Qu Ying nodded gently: "Mom, I understand!"

"Also, please don't send anything anymore in the future. Xiaole has a big family. If you send too much, it will be annoying. Listen to your mother."

Qu's mother was there comforting her.

Qu Ying smiled when she heard this, but said nothing.

After such a long time, she naturally knew some of Yang Xiaole's background. This guy had been to the black market before.

There is definitely no shortage of money.

And with my salary, it’s no big deal to have some expenses occasionally.

……

When Yang Xiaole came out, people were already eating outside, and there were visitors from every household in the compound.

For those who didn’t come, any extra food will be sent over there.

The people serving the dishes were all from the compound.

After a while, Yang Xiaole went in and called Qu Ying out, then brought drinks to toast everyone.

We were busy until the afternoon, and when the banquet was over, the aunties in the compound came to help.

When the bowls, chopsticks, tables and chairs were delivered, a large bowl of leftover food was also given.

There isn't much left actually.

Although meat is now sold freely, not every household can eat it freely.

If you don’t manage a household, you won’t know how expensive firewood and rice are.

Yang Xiaole sent away wave after wave of people. His uncle's family and Uncle Chen did not leave, and everyone else left as well.

Because of my grandfather's identity, my eldest brother sent him to the station after the meal and took some things back with him.

Qu Ying looked at Yang Xiaole’s flushed face.

A little worried: "Are you okay?"

Yang Xiaole took a sip of the strong tea, smiled and shook his head: "It's okay! Can't you see that I can't even speak with a lisp!"

He really didn't remember how much he drank today, but he just accepted everything.

I feel a little dizzy, but not too strong.

Chen Dalin was a little confused at this time. He looked at him and said, "You are really good. I wanted to get you drunk, but I almost got myself into trouble."

Looking at him, Yang Xiaole smiled and said, "Uncle Chen, I'll accompany you for a drink tonight."

Chen Dalin shook his head when he heard this.

"I won't drink anymore. I won't drink anymore. I'm old. I have to admit defeat!"

This made everyone laugh.

Wang Qiuju was chatting with Qu Ying's mother there.

The little ones were counting their red envelopes. All the children who came to pick up the bride had red envelopes, and they were all relatives, so the ones they gave were big.

……

I cooked the remaining ingredients at home in the evening.

After dinner, everything finally calmed down.

Qu's mother returned to Qu Ying's house.

Inside the room, two people were washing up.

Wang Qiuju walked in and said, "Xiaoying, this is the gift bill for your wedding. The list is all on it. I'm giving it to you."

Qu Ying looked at the money and smiled, "Mom, no need, keep it for yourself!"

"Okay, take it for yourself. The old family's things are all for you."

Hearing her say this, Qu Ying looked at Yang Xiaole, and when she saw him nod, she put it away.

Wang Qiuju smiled and said, "Then I'm leaving. I'm tired after a day's work. Go to bed early!"

She got up before dawn and was very sleepy.

He said hello and left.

After everyone left, Yang Xiaole asked, "Did your mother give you the money and tickets?"

"I gave it to her. Let her buy some food herself. We have food at home. I'll go over to accompany her after breakfast tomorrow morning!"

"Well, you go with her tomorrow, and we'll move there after mom leaves."

When you are away from home, you don't have to go back to your parents' home.

Qu Ying agreed.

After washing and locking the door, the two of them lay down on the kang.

"Are you sure you don't want to take any measures?"

From the dark room, Qu Ying's low, inquiring voice was heard.

Counting the days, now is the dangerous period.

Hearing this, Yang Xiaole smiled and nodded: "It's okay, just give birth if you get pregnant. By the way, I will return to the army the day after tomorrow. I will try to come back on weekends. If you find out that you are pregnant, you can stay at home and someone will take care of you. Did you hear me!"

Qu Ying's mosquito-like voice came from the darkness: "Okay, I know!"

"Okay! The soundproofing of this house is not good. Just bear with it for a while and remember to bite the quilt."

In the darkness, Qu Ying's face was already red.

Then there was a rustling sound.

Fortunately, this is a special period, and this is a large compound, so no one dares to hide in the corner.

……

The next morning.

Wang Qiuju habitually gets up early to make breakfast.

Qu Ying got up with a red face, and only breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that no one had any other expressions.

Even though I was biting the quilt last night, the snorting sound still came out.

Everyone had breakfast and went to work, leaving mother Wang Qiuju and the three little ones at home.

After breakfast, Qu Ying rode away on her bike.

Yang Xiaole had nothing to do at home, so he followed them.

A large bag of bacon, various canned foods and other supplies were packed up and mailed back without thinking the postage was expensive.

As for home, I'm sure a lot of them were left behind and hidden.

There is no way to get fresh meat, after all, he is not at home often, so there is no way to keep it.

I secretly gave my mother some money so that she wouldn't be reluctant to spend money on food and drink.

The wedding leave passed quickly.

I spent the night at home and left home and returned to the army the next day.
