Chapter 65065 Chu Song Necromancer
Chu Song liked the jade bracelet that Weng Fengwei gave her very much, but unfortunately she had no chance to wear it openly, and she had to be careful not to be discovered by Ye Xiuzhi.
There are a lot of "good things" in her boudoir, and taking any one of them out can scare Ye Xiuzhi half to death.
Ever since her hidden snacks were discovered last time, Chu Song has learned her lesson. She cleans her room every day and prevents people from entering or leaving her room under the pretext of "can't stand the doghouse".
Ye Xiuzhi didn't know the truth. Seeing that the first thing Chu Song did after getting up every day was to fold his own quilt, she thought it was because of her good teaching and that she had made him diligent, so she felt complacent for a while.
Dong Man's wedding banquet will be held on Friday, which is an auspicious day for marriage.
Before daybreak, Ye Xiuzhi and Xiang Baoshu got up and prepared to go to Dong Man's house to help. This is how banquets are held in rural areas, with people in the same village helping each other.
A few days ago, Ye Xiuzhi brought bacon to the house and helped prepare everything for the banquet in advance, washing the bacon, pickling dried vegetables, and pickling kimchi...
It was a little after ten in the morning when Chu Song finally arrived, accompanied by Chai Xueqi, who was taking care of the children at home.
Ye Xiuzhi, wearing an apron, spotted her troubled child in the crowd. She lowered her voice and warned, "Today is Xiaoman's wedding day. I'm telling you, don't cause any trouble."
Good citizen Chu Song was very dissatisfied, "Nonsense, when have I ever caused any trouble?"
"Come on, if you ever behave yourself, I'll burn incense to my ancestors." Ye Xiuzhi sneered twice and quietly stuffed a piece of fried crispy meat to Chu Song. She helped in the kitchen, so these leftovers were inevitable, and the host family turned a blind eye to them.
Chu Song blinked his eyes, ate a few bites, and then asked, "Mom, where did you get the fried crispy meat?"
"I got it from the kitchen. What for? Are you embarrassed to eat it?"
"No, I mean you don't know how to get a bigger one. This is not enough to fill the gap between my teeth."
“…”How big is the gap between teeth?
Ye Xiuzhi was speechless and stuffed a handful of sunflower seeds and peanuts into her pocket. "Go and have fun by yourself. When you're done, there are peanuts and candies on the table over there. Take them yourself."
"Okay."
Because Chu Song got up late, he missed the interesting scene of the groom picking up the bride in the morning. There were not so many formalities in the countryside. Dong Man was wearing new clothes and greeting the guests with a smile on her face.
She had the bridal makeup that was popular in that era on her face, with cheeks like a monkey's butt and bright red lips. Although it was a bit shocking, she looked in good spirits and looked energetic.
Dong Man saw Chu Song, greeted her with a smile, and then went on to do other things.
Chu Song stared at her for a while, then suddenly turned around and said, "Xiang Baoshu, if you get married in the future, let me do your makeup."
Xiang Baoshu: "Why do you say that?"
"Of course it's because I'm good at makeup. Although I'm naturally beautiful and don't need too much makeup, I have a natural talent. I can easily create a beautiful look for others with just a flick of my hand."
In a word, praise yourself over and over again.
Xiang Baoshu didn't know whether to laugh or cry. "I don't even have anyone I like, so it's too early to talk about getting married."
"You really don't have anyone you like? Then what do you think of my second brother?"
In the original novel, Xiang Baoshu's official partner is Chu Song's second brother Chu Heng, but the focus of the whole text is Xiang Baoshu's career and her story of tearing apart the best. Chu Heng has even fewer scenes than her, the bully sister-in-law, and is purely a background board.
Oh, yes, Chu Song is the ultimate one.
"Chu Heng?" Xiang Baoshu was stunned. In her impression... well, actually, she didn't have much impression.
The only impression I have is that he is a young man who loves to laugh.
She asked curiously, "Why did you suddenly mention Comrade Chu Heng?"
Apparently, the two don't have any feelings for each other at this point, so how did sparks fly between them in the original novel?
Chu Song was not sure and had no intention of interfering in their relationship. Feelings cannot be forced, everything depends on fate.
"I just said it casually. After all, my eldest brother is married, and I only have my second brother left."
Xiang Baoshu just thought she was curious and didn't pay much attention to it. She just smiled and walked away.
The wedding banquet started on time at noon. The bride and groom stood in the middle of the yard. After worshipping heaven and earth, they accepted everyone's blessings with blushing faces. Some people who liked to stir up trouble deliberately "made things difficult" for the newlyweds, asking them to tell their love story, including how they met and who confessed first, making their already blushing cheeks even redder.
In the end, it was the elders from both sides who stepped in to stop these mischievous monkeys.
Finally, amid the cheers, Dong Man blushed and sang a military song with the groom. Although each of them was out of tune, one could see the deep affection between them at the moment.
It was Chu Song’s first time to have a wedding banquet in the countryside in the 1970s. Due to different economic conditions, it was naturally impossible to be as exquisite and luxurious as in later generations. The dishes were mainly simple and affordable.
The wine is homemade rice wine, and the main meat dishes include stir-fried pork with chili peppers and pork with sand, followed by braised spring bamboo shoots, scrambled eggs with leeks, cold bean sprouts and smashed cucumbers, and finally the sour soup pork.
Chu Song sat at the same table with the elderly and children. She was the one with the strongest fighting ability, so the table where they ate was quite elegant, unlike the tables next to them, where people were about to fight while eating. As soon as the dishes came, they were swept away in a few seconds.
Of course, both the host and the guests knew that no matter how much they scrambled for food, there would be enough to eat, just the right amount, not too much, not too little, and in the end everyone had a full stomach.
In this era, a wedding banquet is a grand event for the whole village.
So after dinner, everyone didn't rush to work as usual, but gathered together to chat. Both men and women were keen on gossip about other people's private affairs.
As the king of the children, Chu Song did not participate in the gossip. Instead, he was supported as king by a bunch of little brats in the village and became a local emperor.
She followed the children in the village, running around in the crowd like a pony without a bridle, commonly known as: a stage frenzy.
Ye Xiuzhi saw it several times and endured it.
Considering that it was a happy day, I didn't bother to say anything to her. It was pointless to say anything anyway, and she would only be quiet for a few minutes at most.
There weren't many games to play in the village. Chu Song went to pick up his homemade sandbags. As soon as he bent down, he heard someone whistling frivolously from the opposite side.
"My young wife, you are pretty."
"She has willow-leaf eyebrows and a cherry mouth, and walks like a willow swaying in the wind."
There were a few middle-aged men who winked at her and sang a few rhymes to tease women. Although they did not mention any names, they looked at her straight.
As if expecting her to look embarrassed or ashamed, they would then burst into laughter.
Unfortunately, Chu Song did not let them get their wish.
She glanced up and down at several people and asked seriously, "Excuse me, are all your fathers dead?"
Several people were stunned for a moment. They had never encountered such a situation before. The smiles on their faces froze instantly, and their faces turned from red to ashen. When they realized what was happening, they became angry and said, "What did you say?!"
Chu Song repeated it softly and patiently, her words even being somewhat polite. She changed her question into an affirmative sentence, "I mean, your fathers are all dead."
"Bullshit!" The bald man who had been whistling earlier stood up with a thud. The heavy breath he exhaled from his nose was filled with obvious anger, and his eyes narrowed into slits. "You little bastard, if you curse me again, I'll teach you a lesson."
Chu Song was unhappy. Are the officials allowed to set fires but the people are not allowed to light lamps?
"You were the one who opened your mouth first. I'm not unhappy at all. I just said one thing to you. Why are you so anxious?" She sighed and shook her head. "Can't you afford to play?"
If looks could kill, the bald man's glare would have been enough to pierce Chu Song into a hole.
Chu Song accepted their "praise" calmly and mocked them at the same time, "You are right, I am indeed pretty, but you..."
She thought for a moment and commented, "Like a typical old Beijinger."
Old Beijingers? What do you mean? I only know that Beijing is the capital and a big city. Does that mean they are city dwellers?
The bald man didn't understand, but just by looking at her expression, he knew that it was not something good.
Everyone was staying in the same yard, and any slight movement would attract everyone's attention. After hearing this conversation, several educated youth couldn't help but laugh.
Someone curiously asked what it meant, and Tong Shuli explained: "Old Peking Man is the Peking Man, a typical representative of primitive people. Its appearance is that of a low forehead, a wide and flat nose, thick brow bones and teeth, and a protruding mouth."
After hearing this, everyone suddenly understood, and someone said bluntly: "Isn't that ugly?"
Tong Shuli snapped her fingers, "It's not just ugly, it's extremely ugly."
Although Tong Shuli didn't know what exactly happened, she instinctively trusted her good friend. Although Chu Song was naughty, he was not the kind of person who would take the initiative to cause trouble.
The bald man's face turned red with anger, and he finally realized that he was being indirectly called ugly.
He just kept scolding, and if no one explained it to him, he wouldn’t understand!
"What's wrong? What's going on?" Ye Xiuzhi noticed something was wrong and rushed into the crowd, first standing in front of Chu Song to protect him. "You grown men, what's the big deal about bullying a child?"
The "child" who was half a head taller than her and much stronger showed an appropriately aggrieved look.
Ye Xiuzhi repeatedly warned Chu Song not to cause trouble, but when something really happened, her first reaction was to protect her, worried that she would be bullied.
Chu Song pulled the man's sleeve and said pitifully, "It's okay, mother. Fortunately you are here. They don't dare to beat me now."
What is the art of speaking? This is the art of speaking.
When Ye Xiuzhi heard this, she immediately became furious. What? They wanted to beat her daughter even though she didn't come?!
"Hit someone? I'll see who dares to do that today. If you touch even a hair on my daughter's head, try it. Believe it or not, I'll fight you to the death!"
The bald man was speechless as the onlookers pointed and talked. How did it develop into a fight? He felt insecure and didn't want to make a big deal out of it.
"Who did it? I didn't do it! I didn't even touch her hair."
Chu Song lowered his eyes, an innocent expression on his face, "I haven't done anything yet...just."
"Just what?"
"Mom, they say I'm pretty, with willow-shaped eyebrows and cherry lips, and that I walk like a willow swaying in the wind."
Ye Xiuzhi had an ugly expression.
Everyone knows what these grown men are thinking when they say these words.
The bald man's face flushed red in anger. He was so angry that his face and neck were red and thick. He raised his voice, his tone a little halting: "I was just joking. You, you also... You cursed others! How can you curse an old man like that?"
"Oh, can I apologize to you?"
Chu Song said sincerely, "I now declare that your father is resurrected."
