Chapter 1049: Dignified Guests
"you do not say!"
The sisters-in-law beside him echoed and looked at Lu Miao and said with a smile:
"We really benefit from your help!"
Lu Miao was stunned for a moment, and suddenly thought of the phrase "newbie protection period".
Just like a well-equipped angler sometimes has an empty rod, while some newbie who comes in randomly can catch fish with just a tree fork?
As a novice, you will have some luck on your side.
The more he thought about it, the more Lu Miao felt that this was the truth.
It’s hard to tell whether it’s because I gained a lot or I’m just amused by my own thoughts.
Lu Miao put his fist to his lips and laughed softly.
The few rays of sunlight that filtered through the leaves in the forest fell on her, making her eyebrows, eyes, lips and teeth even brighter.
The snow-white skin looks like glowing, dazzling beads.
The sisters-in-law and daughters-in-law who were used to seeing fierce women in daily life were just like Geng Xiaoyun who had just been recruited to go to the countryside.
I can’t tell you how much I admire this girl who came from the big city and is as beautiful as a snow sculpture.
While searching for and picking mushrooms along the way, the sisters-in-law also admired Lu Miao along the way.
Hearing Lu Miao's low laughter, the sisters-in-law and the young wives turned their heads quietly to look at him.
Seeing her smiling face with curved eyebrows, the sisters-in-law were all moved.
How come you look so good?
Big eyes, thin eyebrows and red lips.
Fair and beautiful.
This is really a good choice for the head of the place!
This trip was quite rewarding.
Not only was everyone's backpack filled, but the two extra large sacks were also filled to the brim.
This time, we walked about eight or nine miles along the mountain road.
Walking on mountain roads is different from walking on regular roads.
The same distance requires a huge difference in energy consumption.
But because of the large hemp sack and heavy backpack, uncles and young men who were traveling with us helped to carry it.
Lu Miao wrapped her legs with a cable tie again. When she came down the mountain and got home in the afternoon, she didn't feel tired at all.
Geng Xiaoyun saw that she was in good spirits. After sharing the mountain products and mushrooms with the aunts at home, she called the young wives who were picking mushrooms with her and said:
"You guys don't have anything to do later, right? If anyone has playing cards, bring them over and play a few rounds with my sister!"
During the slack season and the winter, people in the village occasionally play cards and mahjong.
The temperature in August is just right, and it is the busy farming season in the Northeast, so young wives don't dare to play even if they want to.
Gu Ji's mother-in-law said it was one.
If outsiders saw this, they would probably point fingers and criticize.
But now it’s different…
The Geng family has distinguished guests coming to their wedding, and they are invited to accompany them!
Several young wives looked at each other, and someone immediately responded with a smile:
"I know someone who has playing cards. I'll go back and put my stuff away. I'll come back when I've borrowed some!"
"I'm coming too!"
"And me!"
There was a lot of noise in the yard.
Lu Miao changed his clothes and shoes in the guest room and peeked out to look around.
After a whole day of interactions, they became more familiar with each other. Lu Miao asked with a smile:
"What are you guys talking about? You look so happy?"
"Talking about playing cards!"
"Do you know how to play cards? What are the rules for playing cards where you live?"
After roughly understanding the situation from the young wives' chatter, Lu Miao smiled and said, "Don't want to disappoint Geng Xiaoyun's kindness, and don't want to spoil everyone's fun."
"I don't usually play these things, so I don't really understand them. You guys play for a while, and I'll watch from the side."
"OK!"
The young wives happily left together.
When we came back a little while later, we had set up a small table in a corner of the yard where the afternoon sun couldn't reach, and we all sat down and started the card game.
What was brought over was a deck of heavily creased playing cards.
Lu Miao subconsciously thought they were going to play Landlord, but when he looked at the table, the number of people at the table seemed wrong.
Even if we don't count her, there are still four people.
How to play Landlord?
Several young wives were enthusiastically dealing cards and playing.
What about the dealer, the main card, and the bidding? Maybe the focus of research is not on these things, and Lu Miao felt a headache when he heard them.
Fortunately, an aunt came into the yard with some red paper rolled up in her arms. After looking around, she asked:
"Have you cut out the "囍" character? It's almost time to clean up the yard."
When Lu Miao heard this, he immediately stepped forward and volunteered:
"Aunt, let me do the cutting of the "囍" character! I've learned this specifically."
"Ah? Well, well, okay..."
Lu Miao finally found a job to pass the time.
Geng Xiaoyun saw that she was calm when watching people playing cards, but was quite happy when fiddling with paper cutting, so she let her do it.
Besides, although the Geng family is marrying off their daughter, Sun Youcheng is not a local.
The banquet was held at Geng's house, and the Geng family did it for the sake of their son-in-law.
They were afraid that the festivities would be too great and others would think that their son-in-law was a married woman, so they only hung two red lanterns outside the door frame, and a pair of "囍" characters were pasted on every door and window in the yard.
The "囍" character was cut by Lu Miao.
She studied with a master teacher at the cultural center for a period of time.
Lu Miao also put some thought into Geng Xiaoyun's marriage.
After cutting a few pieces of red paper, Lu Miao cut out a pair of "囍" characters with a little man in the middle.
Upon closer inspection, the two little figures had round bodies and ear-length hair.
The other one is slightly thinner and has a very obvious crew cut hairstyle.
One can tell at a glance that the hair she cut is for Geng Xiaoyun and Sun Youcheng.
The sisters-in-law who came to help clean up saw it and said in surprise:
"Oh, this is really a skillful craft!"
"Can the character '囍' be cut into this kind of pattern?!"
"It's really beautiful! This is the first time I've seen a '囍' character like this!"
"Comrade Xiao Lu, do you know how to cut paper-cuts? Could you cut us a few pairs of paper-cuts for the New Year?"
"Yeah yeah!"
…
The Geng family is now just sweeping the dust, wiping the tables, chairs and cabinets, and clearing out the clutter.
Those who did these things were all relatives of the Geng family.
Lu Miao is a guest, so Geng Xiaoyun would definitely not let her do these things.
Someone pulled Lu Miao to cut paper-cuts, so Geng Xiaoyun pushed Lu Miao out and let her play with the young wives.
Let’s talk about Fu Jingyou and others.
Harbin Institute of Technology is located in the provincial capital, and the commute is not short.
They came back from playing in the afternoon and it was already past six in the evening when they got home.
After the meal, the Geng siblings exchanged glances, and one of them pulled Sun Youcheng aside to talk, asking him to play the role of host and accompany the guest.
The other one knocked on the door of the guest room and found Fu Jingyou, saying that as a member of the Geng family's family, he wanted him to accompany the distinguished guest from the Geng family.
The "decorous guest" here refers to the son-in-law.
Geng family’s son-in-law is Sun Youcheng.
To put it bluntly, Geng Junhao came to ask Fu Jingyou to go with him to accompany his brother-in-law.
Geng Junhao spoke in a flattering way, comparing them to his mother's family.
Lu Miao and Fu Jingyou couldn't refuse.
So, the card table that Lu Miao didn't sit at in the afternoon, Fu Jingyou sat at it in the evening.
But this time it wasn't poker.
Instead, it is the Pai Gow that makes a crisp sound when moved slightly.
There are also people playing Pai Gow in the south, but Fu Jingyou rarely came into contact with chess and cards in the past.
