Chapter 397: Full of guests
At Daying, Su Anying\'s natal family, Zhou Guilan\'s natal family, and Wu Qiuyan\'s natal family all came by train.
At the other end of the big house, several families who had a good relationship with the Xu family also came.
When a group of relatives and friends met, they were naturally very happy, and they were very lively talking and laughing together.
Seeing the prosperity of the Xu family, everyone is also emotional, especially the big houses, they are very envious.
Wang Zhijun and Li Erniu have a good relationship with Xu Shiyan, so they asked Xu Shiyan, if they want to move here, can they do it?
"It\'s okay to move here, maybe this is the trouble.
Now the land is allocated to households. If you move here, you can’t move the land. The land here is all allocated. "
Nowadays it is not troublesome to move, and it is also easy to change the household registration, but the land is difficult to handle.
"Anyway, if you really want to move, you can just go back to farming in the first few years without changing your household registration.
If it develops in a few years, it is fine to give the land to others without planting it. "Xu Shiyan has no other way, it\'s hard to have both.
Li Erniu and the others thought about it, and it was indeed the case, so they shook their heads immediately.
There is a lot of land on the side of the big house, and they are really reluctant to part with those lands.
If there is no land to grow here and no capital to plant sticks, then it is better to stay in the big house.
Xu Shiyan can only give a suggestion whether others like to move or not, so he didn\'t say anything else.
Whether it’s red or white, it takes a lot of people to be lively.
Although there is not much money for gifts this year, so many people at home congratulate her, which proves that she is very popular.
Relatives and friends are all here to join in, and they must be entertained with good meals.
If you marry a daughter-in-law and hold a banquet at home, today will be full of excitement, and the yard can be filled with helpers alone.
But this is marrying a daughter, and the family does not hold banquets, so they all go to the Han\'s house, which is not so lively in comparison, and only a few tables can be arranged at home.
According to the local rules, when a girl gets married, she has to make a lot of dumplings on the night before she gets married.
The next morning, before the groom came to pick up the bride, he cooked the dumplings for relatives and friends to eat, so he couldn’t send the bride out on an empty stomach.
So that night, Xu’s house was brightly lit, and the house was full of laughter.
Women all get together to make dumplings, while men play poker, drink tea, and chat.
Neighbors in the neighborhood knew that the Xu family was going to have a wedding, but no one came to watch TV that night.
Everyone made dumplings until nine o\'clock, and all the dumplings covered by the seven or eight curtains were finished, covered with white cloth, and placed in the yard.
With the temperature at this time, the dumplings don’t need to be left outside overnight, and they can be frozen hard in the middle of the night.
Others were busy making dumplings, Xu Shiqin was asked to rest early.
Su Anhua, daughter of Zhou Anping\'s family, Zhou Lirong, daughter of Zhou Guizhi\'s family, Zhang Fengyun, and three unmarried girls accompanied Xu Shiqin.
It was less than six o\'clock in the morning on the twenty-sixth day of the twelfth lunar month, Xu Shiqin was woken up to wash up.
Most people who get married in this year don\'t pay much attention to it, and there is no special place for makeup.
In those days when Xu Shiqin was in the capital, he found some cosmetics.
So I got up in the morning, after washing my face and mouth, with the help of several little sisters, I braided my long hair and tied it behind my head, and put on a few red satin flowers.
Then apply some cream, powder, blush, eyebrows, and lipstick.
This is amazing. Most people get married and don\'t even have these things.
After finishing her makeup, she put on a set of red satin padded jacket and trousers. The padded jacket was specially made thinner, and she put on a red woolen dress and a red woolen skirt.
This outfit costs a lot of money just for the materials.
Originally planned to get married in spring, all I made were spring clothes, but it turned out to be useless.
Later, Su Anying bought the material from the provincial capital, and Xu Shiqin made it himself.
When you get married this year, it would be nice for a woman to wear a set of satin red padded jacket and trousers.
Xu Shiqin\'s woolen clothes are rare, let alone in Donggang, even in the county town.
Xu Shiqin has good craftsmanship, the tailoring fits well, and the workmanship is also exquisite. On the top of the clothes and skirt, patterns of peonies and colorful phoenixes are embroidered with colored silk threads.
Xu Shiqin\'s craftsmanship is really amazing, the colorful phoenix is so lifelike, it really looks like it is about to fly.
"Sister Qin, you look so good dressed up like this."
Xu Shiqin was already handsome, but after such a tidying up, he is really radiant.
It is said that the bride is the most beautiful, and it is true for Xu Shiqin.
Everything was packed, and it was just after seven o\'clock.
At this time, relatives and friends who live in Songjianghe and Donggang also arrived one after another.
Xu Shiqin\'s master, fellow apprentices who have a good relationship with him, and the family members of Wei Mingrong, Xue Xiulin, and Chen Chunling are all here.
Neighbors, neighbors, everyone who has a good relationship with the Xu family and has a relationship, all came over.
In the kitchen, two pots boil water together, and when the dumplings are cooked, take them out and bring them to the east room.
All the guests who come to see off their relatives, no matter whether they eat at home or not, have to eat as much as they want, and they can\'t be empty.
The room was busy, when suddenly a car stopped outside, then Xu Haibo waited for a few children and ran back to the room.
"Third Uncle, hurry up, a jeep is coming outside, saying it is looking for you."
Xu Shiyan was eating in the house. Hearing this, he quickly put down his chopsticks and ran out. When he went outside, it turned out that Guo Shouye had brought his wife.
"Yo, Brother Guo, sister-in-law, I didn\'t expect you to come here, come in quickly.
Have you had breakfast yet? Freshly cooked dumplings in the house, come in and eat some. "
"Brother, don\'t worry, I ate at home with your sister-in-law." Guo Shouye said with a smile as he helped his wife walk to the courtyard.
"Our sixth younger sister is getting married today. I, the big brother, have to come and send my younger sister out of the court."
Based on the friendship between Guo Shouye and Xu Shiyan, knowing that Xu Shiyan\'s sister got married, Guo Shouye would definitely come to congratulate her.
Xu Shiyan accompanied Guo Shouye and his wife into the door and went straight to the east room.
"Father, Mom, this is what I often call Brother Guo, and Guo\'s sister-in-law. They know that the sixth sister is going out today, so they came here to congratulate and send off their relatives."
"Hey, it\'s Director Guo, it\'s amazing, how come you are alarmed by this? Hurry up and sit on the kang."
Xu Chenghou and his wife were originally sitting at the top of the kang. When they heard that it was Guo Shouye, they hurriedly moved to the edge of the kang to put on their shoes and go to the ground.
"Uncle, but other things, you are the elder.
Shi Yan and I are like brothers, so we can’t let my uncle go down to meet me, that’s outrageous. "
Guo Shouye took two steps forward and supported Xu Chenghou.
"Uncle, Auntie, don\'t be strangers to the relationship between our two families. Just call me Xiao Guo or Shou Ye, but don\'t be the director."
Guo Shouye smiled all over his face, and helped Xu Chenghou back to the kang.
Over there, Peng Yucui also stepped forward and supported Zhou Guilan.
"Auntie, our old Guo and Brother Xu had a fateful friendship. Today we are here to send the sixth sister out of the house, so don\'t be too far-fetched.
In the future, I will come and go often. During the Chinese New Year, I bring my children to pay New Year\'s greetings to the two elders. "
