Lin Tong personally helped the old lady sit up.
Because Mr. Lin had passed away many years ago, the old lady sat on one side, and the other seat was naturally empty.
Lin Yubao and Shen Hongyan looked even uglier.
Getting married in a hall is not just talk, there are actually some serious rules to follow.
First, worship heaven and earth, second, worship your parents. "Grandparents" is actually a name for parents. To put it nicely, it means worshiping your parents, but in fact it means worshiping your parents.
Of course, it doesn’t mean that you can only pay respects to your parents, you can also pay respects to your grandparents. However, most people pay respects to their grandparents only after their parents have passed away.
So according to the rules, when the newlyweds got married, Shen Hongyan and Lin Yubao should have sat in that seat, but Lin Tong let the old lady sit there.
This is not the most important point. The key point is that everyone in the village knows that the old lady has openly said that she no longer recognizes Lin Yubao and Shen Hongyan as her son and daughter-in-law. Now, the second son of the Lin family's eldest wife is getting married, and not only did he invite people from the second and third wives, but he also asked the old lady to kneel down in a high position. No matter which point this makes, it is an invisible slap in the face of the couple from the eldest wife.
Lin Yin's smile was very meaningful. The uglier Shen Hongyan's face became, the brighter her expression became.
Although Lin Tong is the son of the eldest wife's family, he was raised by the old lady since he was a child. In addition, because of Shen Hongyan's temper, to be honest, Lin Tong and the eldest wife are not close. If he were to choose between the eldest wife and the old lady, Lin Tong would choose the latter.
But Shen Hongyan was still one step away from the old lady's seat and almost sat half of her butt down. As a result, Lin Tong personally helped the old lady sit down, which was a slap in Shen Hongyan's face.
The old lady also felt that this was inappropriate. After all, it was the wedding of her second grandson. For Lin Tong's sake, the old lady didn't want to make things too ugly.
The old lady wanted to stand up, but was held down by someone.
Fortunately, the wedding host invited by the Lin family's eldest branch was very eloquent. Upon seeing this scene, he immediately said with a smile: "It seems that our groom is also a filial son. The young and old present here should learn from him!"
The host's tone was humorous and made everyone laugh.
Fortunately, the host livened up the atmosphere and immediately had two chairs brought into the main room for the couple to sit down, and the matter was finally over.
First, bow to heaven and earth, then bow to parents. After bowing to heaven and earth, it is time to have a banquet.
According to the rules, dishes at a wedding banquet must come in pairs, not singulars. There must be chicken, duck, fish, and meat, and there must be soup for both meat and vegetables. However, the specific number of dishes served depends on the wealth of the family.
The banquet held in the main room was really amazing. There were more than a dozen people at the table, but there were only six dishes, four of which were vegetarian and one was fish.
In this era, seafood and other things can be considered the cheapest meat. Because there is less meat in seafood, for people who are short of supplies, it is more practical to eat meat in big mouthfuls. They don’t have the leisure to enjoy its delicious taste.
There is also a set of pork dishes. Looking at the big pot, it looks very appetizing. This is the only dish worth looking at in the whole banquet.
As a result, after Wang Feng picked up a piece of meat, he saw a thick layer of bean curd skin underneath and only a thin layer of meat on top.
Wang Feng: “…”
Nowadays, some people live in poverty and can only eat meat once a year during the Chinese New Year.
After all, I can only eat it for one meal, and I have to wait until relatives and friends come to visit during the Chinese New Year before I can afford to eat it.
