Zhao Lizheng and his donkey cart drove slowly and hurriedly before catching up with the bride-picking team at the entrance of Tianshui Town.
The two parties entered the town one after the other and stopped at the door where guests were arriving.
This battle attracted many people on the street to come together and watch.
I heard that a guest came to marry the cook who had been single for many years. Everyone was curious about what kind of person he was marrying.
When Ye Annian saw the people on three levels inside and three outside, he suddenly became worried about the old wedding dress Ye Xiaomei was wearing.
Jiang Zhu frowned when he saw him, pinched his fingers, and whispered in his ear: "Don't worry, everything has been arranged."
Hearing what he said, Ye Anyian immediately felt at ease.
At this time, the joy of playing stopped.
Xiao Erniang stepped forward and opened the sedan curtain. Wei Feng also got off the donkey's back and stepped forward to help Ye Xiaomei get off the sedan.
A crimson figure slowly walked down from the wedding sedan. Brand new bright red embroidered shoes, new wedding clothes embroidered with lotus flowers, and even the wedding handkerchief on the head had been changed, they were all new.
"When did you change it?" Ye Anyian was a little surprised.
Jiang Zhu explained: "I asked Zhou Liang to help with the message. On the way, I met Wei Feng and others who came to welcome the bride. Seeing that it was already too late, Xiao Erniang made up her mind and sent two trumpeters back to find a clothing store to rent a suit first. , and then head this way."
"When Wei Feng comes back after receiving the kiss, and they meet each other, he will give it to your second sister and ask her to change it in the sedan chair."
Ye Anyian:...
I have to say that this Xiao Erniang is quite witty.
Wei Feng's wedding clothes were also new, and he led Ye Xiaomei and the two of them directly into Youke Lai Restaurant.
When the onlookers saw her, they were all attracted by Ye Xiaomei's figure. Some people in the town who were familiar with Wei Feng laughed and said they couldn't wait to see the bride.
Wei Feng clasped his fists at everyone, and after dealing with these people, he led Ye Xiaomei straight to the second floor.
Wei Feng is an old man who has a visitor. He has been single for many years and finally achieved good things.
The boss Nan Shao was very happy to have guests. He immediately said that he would close the business for a day and serve wine to Wei Feng. He also invited people working in the restaurant, as well as Wei Feng's friends and Ye Xiaomei's relatives to come and have fun.
Nan Shao also vacated the Tianzi room on the second floor and asked his staff to decorate it so that Ye Xiaomei could temporarily rest.
There were about ten tables in the hall on the first floor. Wei Feng's blind old lady was also picked up early and sat at the main table with Nan Shao and the others.
When Wei Feng sent Ye Xiaomei upstairs and came down to entertain the guests, Ye Annian and his party were also greeted and seated.
Regarding the situation on Ye Xiaomei's side, Wei Feng had already greeted Boss Nan and the others in advance, so Nan Shao didn't ask much. Instead, he was very enthusiastic towards Ye Anian and the others and pulled them to sit at the main table.
Ye Xiaomei's dowry and the congratulatory gifts and extras brought by Ye Annian and others were all brought in. When everyone sat down, the tempting stewed chicken, elbows, and braised fish were brought out like running water. .
On a big day, wine is inevitable. Wei Feng was led by everyone to drink a lot, but he was still thinking about Ye Xiaomei's lack of food upstairs.
He wanted to go up and deliver it himself, but no one would listen. Nan Shao called the aunt from the kitchen, and divided out a portion of the newly served dishes and sent them to the second floor. Wei Feng felt relieved.
His blind old lady was also very excited. Although she didn't eat much, she felt full just from hearing the lively cheers in her ears.
Thinking that her son was so filial and capable, but he still couldn't find a wife at his age. She thought that there was no hope in his life, but there was a girl willing to marry him. She was so happy that she didn't know what to do.
Ye Xiaomei had gone to the house with Xiao Erniang and Wei Feng before. Although she couldn't see her eyes, she was satisfied with the girl's warm and soft voice.
From then on, someone finally took care of the family and had someone to talk to her.
Everyone at this banquet was smiling. When Ye Anyian was at Lao Ye's house before, he didn't have much money to pay for a share, so it was just a joke. After three rounds of drinking here, Wei Feng stuffed a bulge in his mouth. big red envelope.
Wei Feng blushed, neither pushing nor pulling back. Ye Anian took the opportunity to stuff it into his clothes.
He smiled innocently and scratched his head, and simply said: "I'll give it to Xiaomei, and I'll take care of all these people's money later."
Xiao Erniang on the side also got drunk and slapped Wei Feng on the back: "What a fool! Why don't you hurry up and give me a drink!"
Only then did Wei Feng react. He quickly poured wine for Ye Anyian, raised his glass and said, "Brother Ye, my brother-in-law has a toast for you!"
Ye Annian clinked glasses with him, and the corners of his lips curled up slightly: "I wish you and your second sister a happy marriage and a son soon."
After finishing a glass of wine, Wei Feng put down the glass and was about to sit down when he was slapped by Xiao Erniang again: "There is another one! Is Brother Nian's husband disrespectful?"
"Ah, oh oh." Wei Feng patted his head and quickly poured Jiang Zhu another drink.
After three rounds of drinking, everyone still had something to say, but seeing that it was getting late outside, they all dispersed.
Ye Annian and the others had to go further and had to return to Yueya Village, so they also stood up to say goodbye.
But at this moment, from the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of the people from Yueya Village who were carrying Ye Xiaomei's dowry boxes and had not left yet.
The four people gathered together and didn't know what they were muttering.
Ye Anian's heart tightened and he glanced at Jiang Zhu next to him.
At this time, Jiang Zhu also noticed something strange about the four people. After thinking for a moment, he took advantage of pulling Wei Feng to go and quietly said something to him.
After the two came back, Wei Feng quickly mentioned to Nan Shao that he was leaving. Nan Shao thought he was in a hurry to go home for the wedding night and smiled like "I understand."
Seeing that Ye Xiaomei had a lot of dowry, gifts, gifts, etc., he originally wanted to ask two restaurant guys to help carry it, but Wei Feng refused.
Ye Annian also made an excuse to send the two newcomers home instead of going with Zhao Lizheng and the others. By the way, he entrusted Fu Zai and Ding Qiu to Zhao Lizheng and the others to take them back to the village.
After finally getting rid of all the idle people, Wei Feng helped Ye Xiaomei get on the sedan again, and the four sedan bearers carried her straight to the Wei family.
Wei Feng followed behind on a donkey, followed by the four people carrying the dowry.
Xiao Erniang hired another bullock cart and drove it herself. She took Wei Feng's wife Yang Huilan, Ye Anyian and Jiang Zhu to put on the remaining gifts and makeup and put them on the end.
When the long team turned into the small alley where Wei Feng and the others lived, Jiang Zhugu took the opportunity to flick a pebble out and hit one of the four people on the foot.
The person who was hit let out an "ouch", stumbled, and threw himself forward. The people behind him also lost their pace.
The two men tilted their bodies, and the box they were carrying on their shoulders fell to the ground with a clang.
The lid was removed, revealing the contents inside.
Ye Annian and Jiang Zhu had been staring at it, and when they saw it, they were both stunned.
The box looked heavy, but it was actually half a box full of stones.
The two people carrying the box were frightened when they saw it, and they waved their hands hurriedly: "This is none of our business!"
"We just help carry the boxes and have a meal!"
Ye Annian ignored them, got off the bullock cart, stepped forward and lifted the lid of the other box.
As expected, there are also stones inside.
The box is mostly full, so it's quite heavy.
"Thankfully Wu Xianglian was willing to put in the effort to get so many stones." Ye Anyian sneered.
When he just discovered that something was wrong with these four people, he was afraid that there was something wrong with the dowry box, so he waited until there was no one else around at the door of Wei Feng's house before taking action.
But he didn't expect that the two old guys Wu Xianglian and Ye Quan didn't even want to lose any face.
If the box was accidentally opened when we were just having dinner, Wei Feng would be embarrassed, and Ye Xiaomei would also be talked about.
Xiao Erniang was a little drunk at first, but when she saw this scene, she sobered up a lot.
Her eyes widened and she said in disbelief: "What kind of evil did this second girl from the Ye family do to be born into a family like this?"
"I've been working as a coal broker for half my life, and this is the first time I've seen such a stingy person!"
"What's wrong?" Yang Huilan, who heard the movement, spoke uneasily.
The son finally married a wife, but there must be no trouble elsewhere.
"It's okay, Aunt Yang." Xiao Erniang comforted her, "Just sit back and relax."
Xiao Erniang had been a matchmaker for Wei Feng a lot before, so she was familiar with Yang Huilan. After hearing what she said, Yang Huilan stopped asking any more questions.
Wei Feng heard the commotion and came over. He looked at the stones in the two big boxes, his face turned dark.
His hands were clenched into fists, and veins popped out on his arms.
"What are you going to do?" Ye Anyian asked.
Wei Fengqi returned to Qi, but he was also really straightforward, so how could he think of any solution?
After holding it in for a long time, he stepped forward to close the box again and said in a muffled voice: "I'll go find them."
Ye Annian stopped him: "What will you do if you get it back? They are very rogue. Now that Xiaomei has married, they may not admit it and bite you back, saying that you have swallowed the dowry and are still here to cause trouble." "
"Then you can tolerate it like this?" Wei Feng's eyes turned red, "They are too bullying!"
He didn't care about the Ye family's things, but seeing Ye Xiaomei being bullied like this, he couldn't swallow his breath.
Ye Anyian did not answer immediately, but looked at the four people carrying the box.
The four people's faces turned pale. They really didn't know about this. They murmured when the guests came, because they had to carry the box all the way and felt that the weight and the feeling were not right.
"We won't say anything when we go back!"
"Brother Nian, we don't have any friendship with the Ye family! You know that!"
"No, you have to say it." Ye Annian said calmly, "Not only do you say it, you also have to say it with righteous indignation. It is best to arouse everyone's excitement."
"Did you hear that? If you don't do what you are told, I have plenty of ways to deal with you!" Xiao Erniang spoke at the side.
She put her hands on her hips and rolled her eyes at the four people: "I'm very familiar with these ten miles and eight villages, and I know a lot of people. Not to mention other things, just the matter of marrying a wife, as long as I want to make a decision You guys, don't even think about finding a good one!"
"Ouch! We promise to get it done!"
"Promise to get it done!"
"We will definitely embarrass that old guy Ye Quan until he loses his pants!"
These four were all unmarried young men, two of them were quite young. How could they refuse to agree to such a threat from Xiao Erniang? After making their promises one by one, they ran away in despair.
After the four people had disappeared, Ye Anyian said to Xiao Erniang: "I have to trouble you for this matter. Find someone to reveal the news to Zhou Ji's pawnshop in the town. Be sure to let Boss Zhou know. The Ye family's style of marrying off their daughters."
When Xiao Erniang heard this, her eyes lit up: "Wonderful, I think it works."
A faint smile appeared on Ye Anian's cold face: "Don't Ye Quan love face, then I will give him this face."
Wei Feng listened to what Ye Anyian and Xiao Erniang said to each other, and then looked at the stones here, feeling a little worried: "What should we do with these stones?"
Jiang Zhu on the side suddenly smiled: "Whatever they give you, when you come back, wouldn't it be nice to give them something as well?"
Wei Feng's face was filled with joy and he clapped his hands and said, "That's right! Brother-in-law, you really have an idea!"
