Chapter 985 Thank You for Your Makeup
The voices of Shu Yongjie and Mai Zhijun made people waiting to receive dowries and relatives come forward with cigarettes. Some young people were waiting nearby to unload trucks and carry things.
At the same time, people in the kitchen started to get busy. Although today is not the official day of wedding, giving a dowry is a big event for Sijiucheng. According to the rules, entertaining each other will have both hot and cold dishes, but the quantity will be higher than tomorrow. The main banquet is missing two dishes.
This is much better than the wedding in six years, when the whole wedding only lasted one day, or one meal, and it was just a big pot of vegetables and steamed buns with mixed noodles.
Han Li didn't need to move at all to do these things. He only needed to stay in the room and continue chatting with his master, Principal Wen, and the leaders of the neighborhood office and the bus company.
After the brother-in-law, Yun Chengpeng, and the others stopped the car, they took the cigarettes from the person responsible for greeting the guests. Everyone smoked and chatted aside, watching the young people carrying the dowry down from the car.
These things should be left outside for the neighbors to see for a while before they are moved inside the house.
Today's items are all big items, and the bits and pieces will be brought with the bride tomorrow. At this time, the onlookers let out waves of exclamations.
Neighbor A: "TV, this is a TV."
Neighbor B: "We saw it. The box is bigger than the one given to my daughter by Lao Jin's family in our alley."
Neighbor C: "There is also a tape recorder"
Neighbor Ding: "A tape recorder is a rare item. Is this the first tape recorder in our alley?"
Neighbor E: "A tape recorder? There aren't many tapes on this thing. I'd say it's not as useful as a radio."
"electric fan"
Aunt A: "Is this a washing machine?"
Aunt B: "There is actually a washing machine? Doesn't this thing mean that the clothes can't be washed at all? The in-laws of the old Han family are a little confused. Isn't it good to have this money to pay for my daughter's clothes?"
Aunt C: "If you can't wash the clothes? Then can't you wash the diapers? Won't the old Han family have a grandson next year?"
Auntie Ding: "You're just saying sour grapes because you can't eat them. If you can give your daughter a washing machine, there will be less stuff in the bottom of the box?"
Aunt Wu: "Didn't you notice the bedding? I counted twelve sets."
Aunt Geng: "Wow, the old Han family's in-laws' house is so spacious. Now all the grandchildren have bedding."
Young Man A: "What's in this little box, and why is it placed at the highest place?"
Young Man B: "I, the Han family's sister-in-law, even sent me a camera."
Young Man C: "What? Camera? Show me quickly"
Young man Ding: "I wish I could marry a wife who can accompany me with so many things."
Young man E: "You? You'd better go to bed. When you sleep, you'll have everything in your dreams."
Young Geng: "That is, you didn't grow up well when you were a child, your grades in school are not good, and your job is not good now, but what you think is still true. I guess nothing else can satisfy your thoughts except in dreams."
Young man Ding: "Get out."
"Hahaha"
While everyone was joking, the dowry sent by the Yun family had been unloaded and placed in the second tent built by Hou Huidong and the others. Neighbors, relatives and friends could come over to see it at any time. Of course, special care was arranged here. The main purpose is to prevent those children from being pushed down, damaged, and stepped on dirty things without knowing the importance of it.
At about 2:30 in the afternoon, the dowry givers like Yun Chengpeng were already drinking.
This place has a special escort, and it is a wheel-and-wheel battle style that cannot be replaced.
Therefore, after the banquet started, Han Li's brother-in-law Yun Chengpeng was the primary target of everyone's fire. He was the first person to be knocked down.
Then five more people were poured down, and the legs of the remaining two became weak when they walked. The dowry banquet was officially over.
At this time, according to the old rules of the Forty-Nine Cities, Han Li needed to take a few people to the Yun family to "thank Zhuang", and now he just took the opportunity to send Yun Chengpeng and others back.
After Han Li left with the people who "thanked makeup", the number of people who came to pay the gift account also reached its peak.
The people in charge began to arrange for the neighbors, classmates, friends, and colleagues who had given gifts to sit down, and at the same time, the kitchen started serving food.
For those neighbors who are closer to the Han family and who are older and more senior, someone will come to invite them.
At this time, the people serving food from the kitchen to the banquet were all the neighbors who were similar in age to Han Li and had a close relationship with him, his childhood friends, and his junior brothers.
Of course, people like Liu Zhongcheng, Liu Zhongxin, Zhang Hailin, Zhang Ling, Hou Huidong, Hou Liru, Li Yunhua, Guan Haijiao, Song Guanghui, who came here to help, as well as Tong Shaoxin from the sports school, Niu Dahai, Zhang Yaozu, Zhang Xiangjun from the Northeast, and those from the Northeast The children from the street office and bus company leaders who had been repeatedly warned by their families before coming here were also the main candidates to serve food at this time, and there was even a scene where two people grabbed a "tray".
They don't sit down to drink now, but after the gift-giver leaves and cleans up, the Han family will set up two tables, and Han Li will accompany them to eat and drink.
(Tray: also known as pick plate, square plate, sieve, dustpan, plate, a square tool that can carry many dishes at a time.)
Han Li's group also consisted of eight people, but after arriving at the Yun family, he felt that this "thank you for the dowry" was actually the woman's way of seeing how the person who gave the dowry was treated by the man's family.
At this time, the Yun family saw that six of the eight people who went there were drunk, so the people they found to accompany the banquet immediately began to perform.
However, the people the Yun family found to accompany the wine met Han Li, who was a wall. Although he could not help his companions to block the wine, he sent all the wine that wanted to be poured into his stomach into the vast peach garden.
Because of the short time and tight schedule, only three of the eight people in Han Li's group were drunk when they left, and Han Li was fine. He drove everyone back very soberly.
When Han Li returned home, those who gave gifts and had a banquet had almost left.
After Han Li came back, he first told his parents and the manager about the situation of this trip. Then he accompanied these childhood friends and friends to drink. During this period, he not only had to eat and drink well, but also had to keep time.
Why did they have to choose the time? Because Han Li still had to go to the bathhouse tonight to take a bath.
Han Li finished drinking and took a large group of people to take a bath.
Han's father took the new bedding he made and went out to the courtyard house next to Houhaizi. Following behind Han's father were the Han sisters, He Mi, Qi Zhaodi, Hou Yuhua, as well as Ding Yulan, Wang Chunhua and several other guests who came from afar.
