Not long after, several figures came over on bicycles.
Tian Tian looked from afar and saw that the person riding in front was also wearing green clothes.
Tian Tian knew that man must be the groom.
There was a group of children surrounding the cycling team. If the children ran to the front of the bikes, the people would grab a handful of candy from the bag hanging on the handlebars and scatter it to the side, and the children would immediately run to pick up the candy.
Tian Tian looked at the groom who was leading the group. He was not particularly handsome, but he was well-proportioned with dark skin. He seemed to be riding his bicycle very carefully and seemed to be quite honest.
After the groom arrives at the yard on his bicycle, he has to go through a series of tests before he can get the bride on the bike.
Tian Tian originally wanted to watch the fun, but when the groom was going through the test, a large group of people gathered outside the house. Tian Tian stood at the back of the crowd and couldn't squeeze in. She could only hear the noise of laughter coming from inside. She was short, so she could only stand there anxiously. She suddenly felt that it was boring, so she walked to the side of the yard to watch them out of boredom.
Not long after, the groom brought out the bride. After toasting the second uncle and aunt, the groom took Tian Lili, whose eyes were red, and got on the bicycle.
Tian Tian didn't feel anything at first, but when she saw Tian Lili about to cry and Second Aunt's sad expression, she felt like she couldn't bear it either and felt uncomfortable.
While the second uncle and his companions left with the bride, the others who wanted to go with them to present gifts or help either left on other people's bicycles or on ox carts.
Watching them arrange who would take what car to attend the gift ceremony, although she knew that she was the younger generation and it was normal for everyone to follow the closer relatives, looking at such a scene, Tian Tian still felt a little embarrassed and wished she could shrink into a small corner.
But thinking that Old Lady Tian asked her to go to the banquet with everyone, Tian Tian didn't want to leave now. Just when Tian Tian was tiptoeing to slip out, Tian Lisong stopped her.
"Tiantian! Let's go! Go home!" Tian Lisong called Tian Tian to go home.
"Dad! Aren't we going to the ceremony?"
Tian Tian was a little confused. Didn't they say they were leaving here? Why were they going home?
"Go home, Dad will ride my bike to take you there! There's no room on this ox cart! And it's not convenient for you to squeeze with them!" Tian Lisong said as they walked Tian Tian outside.
When Tian Tian heard that Tian Lisong still remembered her, she happily agreed and went home with Tian Lisong.
"Dad! Since we still have to go home, let's take Tian Baobao and Tian Zhuo with us! It would be embarrassing for me to go to the banquet alone!" Tian Tian said.
There were three children in the family and she was the only one who went to the banquet. She always felt uncomfortable, as if the family was biased towards her.
Well! There is indeed a little bit of partiality. Old Lady Tian is more partial to her.
Tian Tian is well aware of this, so she usually shows special favoritism to Tian Baobao and Tian Zhuo, wanting to give her love to them both.
"That won't work! We are all real relatives, and I can't do something like paying for one person to take the whole family out for a meal!" Tian Lisong said.
Food is very precious nowadays and few people are willing to do things for themselves. But once they do do things for themselves, most people will consciously take a child or one person to eat. Only a few shameless people will pay for one person and bring the whole family to eat and drink for free, but such people are still a minority.
Tian Lisong and his family are real relatives to Tian Lili's family, so it would be bad to do something that would put their relatives at a disadvantage.
Tian Lisong took Tian Tian back home and went back to the house to change clothes.
When Tian Baobao and Tian Zhuo saw Tian Tian come back, and knew that she was going to give gifts soon, they excitedly surrounded Tian Tian and talked about this and that, and asked Tian Tian not to forget to bring them some delicious food later.
The more Tian Tian listened, the more upset she felt. Life in the countryside was not rich to begin with. Every day they ate what they grew in the fields. There was nothing good to eat, and sometimes they couldn't even get enough to eat.
Although Tian Tian's family was better off and could eat an egg occasionally, they could not eat anything better.
It can be said that doing things for the people is the only chance to improve their food, but because of the poor harvest in previous years, few people would do things for the people. At most, they would set up one or two tables and invite their families to have a meal.
It's a rare occasion that the family that Tian Lili is marrying wants to set up several tables for her today, but these two little brats can't go.
After Tian Lisong changed his clothes and came out, squatting beside the dry well to clean his shoes, Tian Tian came over and said, "Dad! Can't you really take Tian Baobao and Tian Zhuo with you? I feel embarrassed to go eat alone!"
"Your second uncle is also going to pay his respects, and he will bring Tian Baobao with him!"
"What about my brother? Tian Baobao and I are both going out to eat, leaving him alone at home. He must be feeling even worse! I won't go either. I'll stay at home with Xiao Zhuo."
Old Mrs. Tian is old now and doesn't want to attend such noisy occasions, so she said she would stay at home today and let her children go over.
Tian Lisong sighed, turned back to the house and called Tian Zhuo out, and said to Tian Zhuo and Tian Tian: "You two have to be careful when you go to eat, don't put all the good things on your plates like you've never eaten before, eat slowly. Let's just have a good meal and then come back!"
Tian Zhuo was so excited when he knew he was going to be taken to the gift-giving ceremony. After hearing what Tian Lisong said, he nodded like a chick pecking at rice.
Tian Tian is not a child anymore, so she naturally knows that she still needs to pay attention to table manners.
When Tian Baobao, who was standing by, heard that both the brother and sister were about to go over, he kicked the pebbles on the ground with a look of disappointment.
"Baby Tian, your dad will be back soon. You can go with him then. I will reserve a seat for you next to Tiantian!" Tian Lisong said.
