Chapter 285: Eating wedding candy will bring good luck
Mingyang, Mingliang, Mingfang and Mingkai sat at the door of the kitchen, waiting for the chef to boil the lard. Uncle Guai would look at them from time to time while entertaining people.
It was like Chinese New Year every day in this family. Even when they went out, they were still thinking about the lard residue!
He touched his pocket and found a bag of white sugar wrapped in paper. He was waiting for the lard residue to be boiled and sprinkled with sugar for them to eat.
Shen Meng looked at the greedy cats and couldn't help staring.
"What are you doing here? Grandma Youzha has also given you a lot of Liu Lu!"
"I want to eat, I want to eat."
Lu Mingkai twisted his little butt and swayed to stay in the kitchen. Mingyang and the others looked at Shen Meng with helplessness, and Mingliang sighed.
"Mom, Mingkai is a stubborn donkey. He doesn't want to leave now, and he just doesn't want to leave."
"Okay, okay, wait here for food!"
Several aunties and aunties who were nearby saw that Shen Meng had no way to deal with the child, and they all laughed happily. You say you are awesome, right? There are people who are more awesome than you, and nothing can surpass the child.
The whole yard was bustling with activity. The bride had to leave early, so the feast would start around 10 a.m. The steamed three-grain buns and the prepared meals made
everyone drool. After two rounds of tea, the bride-picking party arrived. Shen Xiaobin was wearing his new clothes and had some hair oil on his head. He looked very handsome. As soon as he entered the yard, he immediately became the focus of everyone's attention.
The old couple were so happy to see such a handsome son-in-law.
Following behind Shen Xiaobin were some relatives of the Shen family, who came to carry Lu Xiangxiang's dowry.
When the old couple saw Shen Xiaobin, they forgot everything else.
The pig dregs that Mingkai had waited for a long time finally came out. The chef filled him with half a bowl. This was what the host had told him before. These children are not ordinary children, they are very valuable!
Mingkai was about to rush into the crowd with half a bowl of pig dregs.
"What are you doing, Mingkai? There are so many people, aren't you afraid of being squeezed?"
"I, I'm going to find Grandpa Guai. Grandpa Guai said he hid some sugar for me. It will be delicious
if I sprinkle it on the dregs." "Hey, it tastes better if you sprinkle it with salt and pepper. It's too greasy if you sprinkle it with sugar. No." Mingliang frowned when he heard Mingkai's words and couldn't bear it and pulled him tightly.
"I want it, I want it, I want it, I want it~."
"Keep your voice down, or I'll beat you up if you keep yelling. Today is the wedding of my uncle and aunt, so don't make a scene, eat less, we'll have a good meal at grandma's house later!"
Lu Mingkai pouted, unable to break free, and looked at Shen Meng with pitiful eyes.
"Hehehe, they're such a good match!"
Shen Meng stood in the crowd and looked at the couple standing together, chatting with others. She didn't know if it was her illusion, but she always felt that there was a burning gaze that was staring at her, and she couldn't see it when she turned her head.
"Don't look at it, you're too short, mom can't see you, brother, shall we go sit down? No one will take your seat."
"Go, go, go, sit on the stools, Mingkai, you have to keep your seat, don't let it be taken away, or mom won't be able to sit down."
When Lu Mingkai heard that the feast was about to begin, he felt that the pig fat residue in his hand was no longer fragrant.
Several children hurriedly looked for seats, but most of them were already occupied. Although everyone wanted to see the bride and groom, most of them wanted to quickly occupy seats and have a good meal.
"Mingliang, Mingyang, come here, come here, there are seats here."
"Auntie."
Wang Lianhua, Xie Jinghao, Xifeng, Yu Shirley and others were sitting at the outermost table, and with the children, the table was full.
"The feast will start soon, where is your mother?"
"Mom is joining in the fun. My mother is so happy that she is about to jump up."
"Puchi, of course your mother is happy. She is the one who facilitated the marriage, and the couple will soon start living on their own. How can she not be happy?"
"Yes, after Xiangxiang gets married, we should look forward to Shirley in the future."
Yu Shirley's face turned red, and the big and small girls looked at her and covered their mouths and laughed.
They have already met Uncle Qian, who is a very good person. There is a grandmother at home who is very gentle. When they went there for the first time, she made a lot of delicious food for them and gave them a gift for meeting. They
live in the county town, with a big yard, and they said that they will have their own room in the future.
Although they felt a little sad, they were actually happy to see Uncle Qian treat their mother so well. In the past six months, they had lived the most comfortable and happiest life.
"Don't make fun of me. Uncle Qian and I have a long way to go. Let's wait until Daya has studied for two more years!"
"Hey, you are right. I heard before that Uncle Qian is very busy. There is only one mother at home, and she is old. Shirley, don't think I am saying bad things. This man has such good conditions. You should get married as soon as possible. Daya can also go to the county town to study. It is better to go to the county town instead of our commune to study!"
"Yes, Dr. Qian and you are not young anymore. His mother is so old. You should let her have grandchildren while she is still alive. This way, the family can live happily and live together. It can also be far away from the Xu family, so that the eldest and the youngest will not be scared of them."
Wang Lianhua listened to Xie Jinghao and Xifeng's words and wiped away tears with her sleeves.
"That's right, Shirley. I see that you are living a good life, and my heart is also brightened. I have three children at home. I have to learn from you and live a good life so that I can have hope in the future."
Although she said this, her heart was already full of joy. She was so happy as a lonely person.
Xifeng looked at Wang Lianhua and patted her hand. Her sister-in-law had really changed a lot. She treated the children like precious pearls now. She would let the children eat any good things in her room. She had secretly checked the children's bodies several times and found no signs of being beaten. The children also said that their mother was very good now.
"Sister-in-law, don't worry. Sister-in-law Meng will not let you live a hard life. She must have her own plans."
"Oh, I know. I'm not in a hurry. I'm very satisfied now."
After a while, Shen Meng came back. A manager followed her. The man held a tray in his hand and muttered something. He grabbed the candies and loose cigarettes in the tray and started to throw them out. Seeing this
, some old people and children who were originally sitting on the ground hurriedly lay on the ground and started to pick up candies.
Mingyang and the others also ran to pick up the candies, but Mingkai was the only one who sat at the table holding his bowl without moving.
"Why don't you pick them up?"
"Mom, they are too childish. The drawers at home are full of candies. Why should we go to pick them up?"
Shen Meng: "..."
Wipe your mouth, how mature are you?
"This is the wedding candy from your uncle and your aunt Xiangxiang. It is different from the ones at home. It is much sweeter than the ones at home. Besides, if you eat the wedding candy, good things will happen to you."
Lu Mingkai looked at Shen Meng with his innocent big eyes, and the others at the table also looked at her. She was well-informed and what she said must be right.
Shen Meng chuckled twice before saying, "..... not necessarily."
