Chapter 14: Arriving at the Jiang Family for the First Time and Watching the Bride



Some friends may not know what three turns and one ring actually mean?

Let me now give you a detailed introduction.

In the 1970s and 1980s, there was a popular saying among the people: "Three turns and one ring."

Three turns and one ring are also called the four major items.

The "three revolutions" are watches, sewing machines, and bicycles.

"One sound" refers to the radio.

In the years when materials were relatively scarce, it was the most fashionable and coolest thing for rural areas to have "three turns and one ring"!

It was also the people's beautiful yearning for a happy life at that time.

"Three turns and one ring" was the highest wealth that an ordinary family could have in that era!

At the same time, it is also one of the important criteria for most women to choose a spouse.

It is very remarkable for an ordinary family to have "one turn", but if a family can have "three turns and one ring" at the same time, they will definitely be a well-known family in the local area.

After Tang Xinyi was taken to the Jiang family.

Jiang's mother, Zheng Xiulian, immediately came over, supported her daughter-in-law's hand, and took her to the new house.

The son finally married his daughter-in-law. As a new mother-in-law, Zheng Xiulian was naturally very happy.

Village chief Jiang Xi'an was also very happy.

Today is the big day for my son to get married. The old man was wearing a neat Zhongshan suit.

He only wears this outfit when he goes to the city for a meeting.

I am really happy today, after all, it is a major event in my son’s life.

Of course I have to take out this outfit to liven up the occasion!

Ever since the bride came into the house, the Jiang family has become bustling with activity.

People came to see the bride in waves.

There are relatives of the Jiang family and people from the village.

Although most people knew each other, this day was particularly different.

Tang Xinyi, who was originally very familiar, also looked particularly beautiful.

Let the onlookers praise: "The bride is so beautiful!"

Whenever someone said something happy, Jiang Yanzhi would generously give them several candies.

Also because of this.

Many young girls and wives in the village are willing to visit this new house.

After all, if you come in and take a look and say a few nice words, you can get several candies.

In this era when you have to buy a candy with a ticket, such good things are rare.

"Are you hungry, sister-in-law?"

When the number of people had decreased a little, Jiang Yanli came in with a bowl of spring rolls.

This was made by her mother for her sister-in-law. She beat the eggs in a pan and fried them in oil until both sides were golden brown.

Then spread a thin pancake and put the fried egg in it.

Add some chopped green onions and minced garlic.

Roll it up with a pancake.

It is unique both in appearance and taste.

After smelling the fragrance, Tang Xinyi, who was originally about to say that she was not hungry, immediately changed her mind.

"Who did this?"

After taking the burrito, I couldn't help but ask a question.

"This was made by my mother herself. She guessed you might not have eaten since you were busy this morning. There are still two hours until lunch, so she brought it here so you can fill your stomach!"

Regardless of whether she had eaten at Old Tang's house or not, there was absolutely no reason for him to let his daughter-in-law go hungry at his Jiang family.

Jiang Yanli was very happy when she saw Tang Xinyi eat the whole burrito.

Her eldest brother finally got a wife.

She also has a sister-in-law.

In the future, I hope my sister-in-law can take better care of my brother. Although I know that my brother has special ways to make money, he sometimes spends money lavishly.

My parents are always worried about my eldest brother.

The younger sister was also concerned about this.

Even though Jiang Yanzhi usually orders Jiang Yanli around, he actually dotes on his younger sister very much behind her back.

From time to time, I would give her some pocket money.

Whose brother is as generous as her eldest brother?

The relationship between these siblings is even more harmonious than what the outside world sees.

"My mother's cooking skills are really good. I must learn from her in the future!"

"Yanli, have you eaten?"

After Tang Xinyi had eaten and drunk her fill, she glanced at the curious little girl next to her.

"I just ate in the kitchen. They're frying some crispy pork right now. Do you want some? I'll get it for you!"

When Jiang Yanli saw Tang Xinyi talking to her, she happily sat next to her.

"I'm full, I can't eat anymore!"

Tang Xinyi patted her belly. At this moment, everyone in the room was attracted by the fragrance outside, and the two sisters-in-law had a good chance to talk.

"Yanli, do you want candy?"

"While no one is around, grab some and save them for later!"

Tang Xinyi took out a small toilet from under the table, opened the lid, and found it was full of candies, red dates, longans, peanuts, etc.

Putting these things in the toilet symbolizes early birth of a child and good luck.

Of course, this toilet is also newly bought and has never been used!

The things inside will not be taken out until the second day of the wedding.

"Sister-in-law, how did you know there was something delicious here?"

None of the onlookers paid any attention to this inconspicuous toilet.

Some elderly people know about it, but not all married women know about it.

Because not everyone can afford to keep these things.

"I just took a look and I've heard of newlyweds putting these in the toilet!"

"And this is called the Zisun Bucket, which means having many descendants!"

Tang Xinyi explained a little embarrassedly.

She didn't dare say that she had attended a friend's wedding in modern times.

The friend was from the countryside, and she just grabbed a handful of candy from the toilet and gave it to her.

The toilet was placed so openly in the bedroom. In that era, the toilet had become a mere decoration.
