Chapter 56 Chapter 56 "Let's pick up the bride..." ...
"Let's pick up the bride..."
Zheng Jiamin rushed to the front, followed closely by Wang Qiutong, and then the educated youth Liu Zhenghao, Lu Yuanzhi, Gou Dandan, etc. Fu Mingze was squeezed in the middle, with a bit of helplessness in his eyes.
Maybe it was because the educated youth were not invited to the wedding banquet in the village on ordinary days, and the educated youth rarely had such an opportunity, and each of them was more excited than Fu Mingze, especially Zheng Jiamin. Fu Mingze suspected that if Zhao Zhengyang and his brother hadn't stopped him, he would have rushed into the bridal chamber and snatched the bride away.
With this group of people in front to attract firepower, Fu Mingze, the groom, felt much more relaxed. While Zhao Zhengyang and Zheng Jiamin were talking to each other, Chen Dama and the others let him go and easily broke through the defense line and entered the bridal chamber.
The only person left in the bridal chamber was Zhao Tingting, who had never seen Fu Mingze before. When the little girl saw Fu Mingze, her face immediately blushed: "Brother-in-law is too handsome!"
Well, she immediately "surrendered to the enemy" and spontaneously found the bride's shoes and handed them to Fu Mingze.
When the people outside reacted and rushed in, the groom was half squatting in front of the bed, steadily putting on the bride's shoes.
"The mission is successful, take the bride away!"
Zheng Jiamin shouted at the door of the bridal chamber, and everyone around was startled. Fu Mingze grabbed Shen Moli's hand and ran, and Shen Moli cooperated and followed his footsteps. The educated youth took a defensive posture under the leadership of Zheng Jiamin. It was clearly a wedding, but they created an atmosphere of covering the retreat of their comrades. It was not
until a group of people ran out of the courtyard, rode on several bicycles, and went to the commune with joy that Zhao Zhengyang and others suddenly reacted: "We are here to escort the bride, why don't they go with us?!"
Shen Yinyin slapped her thigh and laughed: "These young people are so funny."
She pushed her son: "Why are you standing there? Hurry up and catch up!"
The three brothers and sisters of the Zhao family and several young people who had agreed to escort the bride hurriedly caught up.
They were so fast that Fu Mingze felt that he didn't even try hard, but he arrived at the commune. He looked around and didn't see anyone else. He looked back and saw that those people were still far away, only a few very small shadows.
"..."
These people are too slow.
Shen Moer jumped off the back seat of the bicycle, took out a clean handkerchief and handed it to Fu Mingze with a smile: "Wipe your sweat."
It was almost November, and the weather was already a little cool, but this man was sweating all over.
Fu Mingze took the handkerchief and wiped the sweat from his forehead, then stuffed it into his pocket. The handkerchief still smelled good, but it was stained with sweat after all, so he washed it and returned it to his wife.
Soon, Zheng Jiamin and his friends caught up, panting and cheering. Zheng Jiamin gave Fu Mingze a thumbs up: "You are indeed the groom, so strong."
A group of people cheered and laughed as they rushed into the state-owned hotel. They had already informed the state-owned hotel and even paid the bills. These were counted in the previous expenses and were considered as Fu Mingze's previous expenses.
When everyone sat down, Shen Moer looked around and felt something was wrong: "Where are my cousins?"
Zheng Jiamin slapped his forehead: "Oh no, I forgot the people who sent the bride!"
Shen Moer: "..."
Fu Mingze stood up: "I'll go to the door to wait for them." Those were the eldest brother-in-law, the younger brother-in-law, and the younger sister-in-law.
Fortunately, Yangliu Brigade was not far from the commune, and Zhao Zhengyang and his group were all young people, so they arrived not long after waiting.
After everyone arrived, Zheng Jiamin solemnly took out a book of □□ and arranged for the bride and groom to recite a paragraph of the highest instructions first, which was considered a simple ceremony. Then, after the □□ was collected, it was time for the "eating and drinking well" part that everyone loved to see.
Some locally produced rice wine was also prepared on the table, and everyone was first given a small wine cup, so that everyone had a share, which was considered to be a share of the joy. After a glass of wine, everyone said a lot of auspicious words very well, quoting from classics, and then began to recite quotations from the classics. Among them, Liu Zhenghao recited the quotations so fast that the guests at other tables couldn't help but applaud him.
Somehow, they started singing red songs again. Wang Qiutong and Zheng Jiamin almost got into a fight. One sang badly but insisted on singing, while the other was annoyed and refused to sing. In the end, Cheng Tao's daughter-in-law Xing Fangjie took the initiative to sing "Looking Back at My Hometown". Her voice was clear and beautiful, and she sang very well.
When they heard "When can I return to my dream homeland", the group of educated youth suddenly became quiet.
Xing Fangjie also stopped and apologized to Shen Moer: "Comrade Moer, I'm sorry, today is a happy day, I'll change to a happy song."
Bang!
Zhang Zhiqiang beside him suddenly slammed the table and yelled: "Why should I be happy? Today is a painful and sad day. Why should I be happy? I don't want to be happy. I want to tell the whole world about my pain and sorrow!"
Zheng Jiamin and Lu Yuanzhi who were sitting on both sides of him were shocked. Zheng Jiamin stood up and said: "No, Zhang Zhiqiang, you naked man, can you speak human language? Are you here to cause trouble on purpose?!"
Zhang Zhiqiang ignored him . He ignored him and slammed the table, shouting: "This world is too cruel, it is too cruel to young people like us who have ideals and beliefs! When female comrades look for a partner, they don't look at character, they look at work, look at conditions, and even more outrageous, they look at the face!"
Lu Yuanzhi also stood up, but his toes touched something, and he bent down to pick it up and saw that it was an empty wine bottle. He bent down again and took a closer look. Oh my god, there is another one next to Zhang Zhiqiang's feet, which is also empty.
"Did these two bottles of wine empty before?"
Fu Mingze looked at Zhang Zhiqiang who was still shouting speechlessly: "Just now, there was still half a bottle of each."
Lu Yuanzhi: "!!!"
The case was solved, Zhang Zhiqiang was obviously drunk!
He drank a whole half bottle of wine by himself!
Although this is rice wine brewed by local brigade members, its alcohol content is not low. I heard that it is at least 30 or 40. He drank half a bottle at once. He didn't pass out and he was still drunk here... Zhang Zhiqiang has a good alcohol tolerance!
But no matter what, it's a wedding today. It's fine if he slammed the table and went crazy, but he also shouted that today is a painful and sad day. It's fine if he shouted about pain and sadness, but he also mocked the groom for marrying his wife for her face. Isn't this too much? !
"He drank too much. He drank half a bottle of wine. He's drunk!" Lu Yuanzhi said quickly.
In fact, everyone had more or less figured it out. After all, although Zhang Zhiqiang liked to say sour words from time to time, he had never been so crazy. Now that Lu Yuanzhi raised the two wine bottles, everyone had a feeling of "as expected".
Zhang Zhiqiang began to wail: "Why is true love always trampled on, sincerity always betrayed, why?!"
The educated youths looked at each other in bewilderment, Gou Dandan couldn't help asking: "What's wrong with the captain?"
Shen Moer and Wang Qiutong, who also squatted over the corner to see the excitement and knew the truth, exchanged a look of "you know me and I know you".
They were at the banquet, so the time spent eating and making noises was naturally longer. The guests at other tables, especially those who ate noodles and wontons, were very fast. At this time, many people had finished their meals and were about to leave. Seeing Zhang Zhiqiang making such a fuss, many of them grabbed their chopsticks and sat back down.
What if the bowl is empty? As long as they hold the chopsticks, they can pretend that they haven't finished eating.
It is quite common to get drunk and go crazy, but it is not common to get drunk and go crazy like this. The old men cried bitterly and shouted that true love is always trampled on and sincerity is always betrayed. There must be a story behind this!
A pair of curious eyes looked at Zhang Zhiqiang.
Zhang Zhiqiang waited for Gou Dandan with bloodshot eyes, and shouted at the top of his lungs: "What's wrong with me? The girl I like is having sex today..."
Fu Mingze came behind him at some point, covered his mouth with one hand, raised his chin towards Zheng Jiamin: "Give me the handkerchief."
He glanced at Lu Yuanzhi again: "Borrow a hemp rope from the waiter."
Zheng Jiamin took out the handkerchief swiftly, and Lu Yuanzhi also borrowed a hemp rope from the waiter. Zhang Zhiqiang struggled hard, but the brothers Zhao Zhengyang and Zhao Zhenghui had already taken over. They were experienced and tying up a wild boar was no problem for them, let alone Zhang Zhiqiang?
Within three minutes, Zhang Zhiqiang was tied up tightly, with Zheng Jiamin's handkerchief stuffed in his mouth. He glared at Fu Mingze, and Fu Mingze said with a cold and handsome face, "Cousin, I'll leave this man to you."
It happened that everyone had almost finished eating and drinking, and there were still some dishes left. Gou Dandan and another female educated youth named Ge Ya took their lunch boxes and took them away.
A group of people packed up and prepared to go back. The guests at other tables who were watching were still not satisfied. Someone couldn't help asking, "Are you leaving now?"
Zheng Jiamin said with a smile, "How about, uncle, are you going to treat us to another meal?"
The man said embarrassedly, "Well, I don't have that much money."
He glanced at Zhang Zhiqiang and said, "It's not very appropriate for you to be tied up like this, right?"
I really hope that the handstring in the young man's mouth will fall off. He just mentioned the point. The girl he likes is fake for a few days... fake for what, I don't know.
This is really heartbreaking.
People who watch the excitement are all heartbreaking. When watching a show, you just happen to see the key point, and then it ends. Isn't it heartbreaking?
But no one paid attention to them. The bride and groom teams were already walking out, chatting and laughing.
Although Zhang Zhiqiang had such a small episode, it didn't have much impact. After all, today was a big day. They had just had a good meal with fish, meat and wine, a total of eight dishes. This was a very polite meal. The chef of the state-owned hotel cooked it himself. It is said that ordinary people can't afford it. Everyone ate happily, rubbed their rarely full stomachs, and soon became happy again.
Some people also whispered quietly, for example, Gou Dandan and Ge Ya were whispering about what Zhang Zhiqiang meant by that sentence.
"What the commander wanted to say was that the girl he liked was getting married today?" Ge Ya guessed.
"Ah, could it be that the commander also likes Comrade Shen Moer?!" Gou Dandan covered her mouth in surprise.
"No way, so he always troubled Fu Zhiqing because of Comrade Shen?!" Ge Ya also covered her mouth.
"No, why don't you use your brains?" Wang Qiutong jumped from the back to the front of Gou Dandan and Ge Ya, "You guessed half right, that idiot Zhang Zhiqiang just wanted to say that the girl he likes is getting married today, but Comrade Shen is not Comrade Shen, and more than one person is getting married today."
She raised her eyebrows at Gou Dandan and Ge Ya, thinking that it was really not good for the educated youth to point these people to watch the excitement. Such an obvious thing, they can actually guess the south and north.
Gou Dandan and Ge Ya understood immediately.
Comrade Shen Lingling is also getting married today.
Yes, Zhang Zhiqiang has always admired Shen Lingling, and he praises her in various ways all day long. Of course, other male educated youth also praised her before, such as Liu Zhenghao and Lu Yuanzhi, who were once Shen Lingling's fans, but not as much as Zhang Zhiqiang.
They were also blinded by one thing, and when they were having a banquet in the state-owned hotel, the first thing they thought of was Shen Moer, and they forgot that there was also Shen Lingling.
Fortunately, Fu Mingze just covered Zhang Zhiqiang's mouth, otherwise he would have been easily misunderstood if he had shouted in the state-owned hotel, thinking that the girl he liked was Shen Moer, and then it would be spread that someone got drunk at the banquet and said that he liked the new bride. Then, not only would Shen Moer's reputation be affected, but it would also be quite disgusting.
Gou Dandan and Ge Ya looked at each other. It was true that Fu Zhiqing was really amazing. They only realized his reaction speed now, but he reacted and took action immediately.
No one thought he was amazing before.
Fu Mingze had never cared much about others. Except for Zheng Jiamin, he had little contact with other educated youths, and he didn't have much contact with the villagers. He was also very poor, so even though he was incredibly handsome, his presence was not very strong.
But from Shi Wei's incident and his marriage to Shen Moli, the people at the educated youth site suddenly realized that Fu Mingze was actually quite amazing.
Shi Wei and Yang Qingqing had obviously set a trap to harm him, but he not only did not fall into the trap, but also got Shi Wei and Yang Qingqing into the Revolutionary Committee, and then quietly found a wife with such good conditions as Shen Moer.
This is really, if you don't say anything, it will be amazing.
With Gou Dandan and Ge Ya, two "insiders", other educated youths soon understood Zhang Zhiqiang's "real intention", especially when someone accidentally shouted "It turned out to be Shen Lingling" and Zhang Zhiqiang heard it, Zhang Zhiqiang's obviously more fierce struggle also proved this point.
Even Zhao Zhengyang and the others accidentally overheard it, and their eyes towards Zhang Zhiqiang were full of sympathy and doubt. Others may not know, but these cousins who grew up together know that Shen Lingling is just like her mother, she is good at talking.
What kind of vision does this man have? It is not surprising that he likes cousin Moer, but he actually likes Shen Lingling.
The group of people ate a belly full of food and a belly full of melons, and slowly returned to the Yangliu Brigade.
In fact, they have enough bicycles. When his precious daughter gets married, she can't wear makeup all the time, but Shen Shaoyuan can still borrow a few more bicycles to pick up the bride and send her off. After all, he is now working in the Propaganda Department, and what this department values is that a person must be familiar to others. Shen Shaoyuan himself has a good personality, so he has a good relationship with people in the commune.
However, walking back from the commune was to send the bride to the bridal chamber. It was still early in the day, so everyone deliberately pushed the bikes slowly along the way, just in time to digest their food.
Needless to say, such a large group of bicycles, especially since no one was riding a bike and they were all pushing the bikes, was really eye-catching.
People doing farm work in the fields had to tilt their heads to take a look.
Because they were walking slowly, they happened to meet Zhang Junliang and his group who had just picked up the bride from the village at the entrance of the village. Meeting
on a narrow road.
In fact, the road was not narrow, but mainly because both sides were crowded with people and cars, which made the road look a bit narrow.
Especially the Zhang family group was particularly unconscious, and they didn't say to walk on one side, but everyone spread out and directly occupied the entire road.
Originally, people walked on the right side of the road, like Shen Moer and her friends, who always walked on the side that only occupied one-third of the road. Or, if they met, they would just give way to each other and pass each other. But the Zhang family didn't do that. They didn't give way to anyone.
Zheng Jiamin was the first to explode. He grew up in an alley. The small alleys in Shanghai are much smaller than this village road. They all said to break away from feudal superstitions, but in fact, ordinary people still asked people to calculate the date for weddings and funerals in private. Good days always coincide with each other. When weddings and funerals collide in a small alley, it's okay for those who are reasonable, but if they meet unreasonable people, they will quarrel.
Zheng Jiamin was so familiar with this scene. There was a commotion when his great-uncle passed away. So before anyone else could react, Zheng Jiamin pushed his bike straight into the middle of the road. The three
brothers and sisters of the Zhao family reacted next. The people in the mountains were tough and attached more importance to the customs and rules of weddings and funerals. On a big day like a wedding, they couldn't let others suppress them, or else their luck would be crushed.
Although the person opposite was also a cousin, cousins were also divided into close and distant relatives, not to mention that they were the ones who didn't talk first.
The other people who followed the bride also followed quickly, and the remaining educated youth looked at each other and silently moved to the middle of the road.
"Who are you? We are welcoming the bride. Can't you see? Please make way for us?" The leader of the Zhang family team was a young man with acne all over his face. He squinted his eyes and looked at the people in front of him with disdain.
He was Zhang Junliang's cousin, named Ma Yingcai. He had heard from his aunt that there was another marriage in the village today. It was a restless girl who married a poor educated youth. His aunt belittled the girl. He didn't look down on rural girls in the first place, and he looked down on them even more after hearing this.
Zheng Jiamin chuckled and asked back, "Who are you? We are welcoming the bride. Can't you see? Please make way for us?"
He said the same thing to him.
Ma Yingcai immediately got angry: "Are you looking for trouble on purpose?"
He was kicked by the bicycle and rushed towards Zheng Jiamin with his arms swinging.
Zhao Zhengyang took a step forward and threw the same sentence back at him: "Are you looking for trouble on purpose?"
Ma Yingcai was not short, but thin, like a bean sprout. Zhao Zhengyang was half a head taller than him and was strong. Ma Yingcai stopped before he even reached the edge. If he went over, he would be hit by him directly, and he would not be able to beat him.
However, the other people who came with him to pick up the bride also surrounded him after seeing this situation.
In terms of the number of people, both sides are actually about the same, but the other side has fewer female comrades, and basically all of them are male comrades, with only four female comrades coming to pick up the bride and send off the bride. If a fight really breaks out, it will be obvious that their side will suffer a little.
However, Zheng Jiamin was not afraid at all. He hid behind Zhao Zhengyang and kept talking nonsense: "Are you really here to pick up the bride? Are you really not here to rob the bride? Look at how ferocious you all are. If you don't know, you might think you are bandits from somewhere! This is the Yangliu Brigade. You are standing on the territory of the Yangliu Brigade, and you are ordering us, the people of the Yangliu Brigade, to make way for you. Don't you even look at your own situation? How big is your face. What's the matter? Have you borrowed the face of the whole commune? You think you have more people, right? Sorry, the new family's home is just a few steps away. If we yell, you will be made into dumplings today!"
The people from the Zhang family were so angry that they vomited blood. Some of them were so impulsive that they were about to attack with their fists clenched. At this time, Zhang Junliang hurriedly squeezed out of the crowd.
"What are you doing? We are all relatives, why can't we talk it out calmly? Zheng Zhiqing, this is Yangliu Brigade, but I married a girl from Yangliu Brigade. It's unreasonable for you to say that."
He looked reasonable and righteous: "You are blocking the road like this, and no one can get through. Isn't this a waste of time? The road is so long, can't everyone just walk on each side? You can't be so domineering."
Zheng Jiamin: "..."
Others: "..."
This is really lying with open eyes, and he is blaming others in person!
Shen Lingling also came out of the crowd, walked to Zhang Junliang, looked at him tenderly, and said to Zheng Jiamin in a tone of disapproval: "Zheng Zhiqing, you are an educated and cultured person, how can you be so unreasonable?"
Zheng Jiamin: "..."
He used to think that Comrade Shen Lingling was beautiful, gentle and generous, but it turned out that she was so gentle.
Zheng Jiamin was choked by the couple and couldn't speak for a long time.
There was no way, these two people completely ignored the facts, how could he reason with them?
He subconsciously turned around to look at Fu Mingze, and then saw a scene that shocked him. After
a quick glance, Zheng Jiamin turned around and looked at the hypocritical Zhang Junliang and Shen Lingling in front of him, and couldn't help showing a sympathetic look.
Why don't you two mess with those two?
Zhang Junliang was still talking: "Forget it, Lingling and I are the elder workers and teachers, so we have some awareness. It's not impossible for us to give you a little bit..."
As he was talking, a figure came out from behind like a rocket launcher, rushed directly in front of Zhang Junliang, and gave him a few big punches.
"Hypocrite, hypocrite, why did you appear in my dream? Look at your face, you are so annoying even in the dream, I will beat you to death, it's you, it's all you, you destroyed my pure and beautiful love!"
Zhang Zhiqiang's eyes were bloodshot, he was unconscious, and he beat Zhang Junliang violently.
"Zhang Zhiqiang, what are you doing? Are you crazy? Let my man go!" Shen Lingling screamed.
Zhang Zhiqiang turned his head stiffly and looked at Shen Lingling. His expression instantly changed from anger to sadness: "Comrade Lingling, I dreamed of you again. Are you going to get married? Can you promise me that you won't get married?"
The people from the Zhang family who were going to pick up the bride had already rushed over and were ready to hold Zhang Zhiqiang down and beat him up. When they heard Zhang Zhiqiang's words, they all widened their eyes in disbelief.
What the hell?
Is this guy here to steal my bride? !
Shen Lingling was going crazy: "Zhang Zhiqiang, what nonsense are you talking about? You, you, you are spreading rumors and slandering me!"
Zhang Zhiqiang held his head and roared: "Ah, why, why are you so heartless in your dream? I was the one who met you first, why did you marry this hypocritical person, why?! No, it must not be like this, they must have forced you, it was your family who forced you to marry this person, it was this person who forced you to marry him, right? I killed him, I will kill him--"
Zhang Zhiqiang firmly believed that this was a dream, and he didn't care at all. He picked up a stone from the ground and was about to hit Zhang Junliang.
Zhang Junliang was slapped several times by him. He wanted to hit back at first, but the more he looked at him, the more he felt that this man was crazy. In addition, the information revealed by his words shocked him too much. He subconsciously stepped back a little and looked at Zhang Zhiqiang and Shen Lingling with a gloomy face. He
never expected that Zhang Zhiqiang would actually smash him to death. Zhang Junliang was shocked and ran away.
When Zhang Zhiqiang saw him, he ran after him, muttering as he chased: "Smash you to death, I smash you to death!"
Well, wherever he passed, the Zhang family's wedding procession was in a panic.
Probably because they knew each other, Zhang Zhiqiang did not attack the educated youth and the people from the Yangliu Brigade, but everyone was afraid of being accidentally injured, so they all moved aside to avoid him and quickly made way.
When the people from the Zhang family who were welcoming the bride saw this, they hurriedly got on their bikes and rode away like the wind.
Zhang Junliang had also pushed his bike and rode away with a cold face. Shen Lingling was still being chased by Zhang Zhiqiang. When she saw Zhang Junliang riding away, she quickly chased after him: "Junliang, Junliang--"
Zhang Junliang had no intention of slowing down. Shen Lingling knew that after such a big embarrassment today and Zhang Zhiqiang's words, Zhang Junliang must be angry. If she let him ride away at this time, her marriage might be ruined.
Gritting her teeth, she finally managed to get on the back seat of the bicycle with all her strength. When the bicycle stopped for a moment, she quickly jumped on and cried aggrievedly, "Junliang, that man is a lunatic. Why did you listen to him?"
Zhang Junliang paused, but at least he didn't let her catch him.
The whole wedding procession went to the commune in such a magical way. In the front were the fastest young men, who were almost invisible. Behind them were several groups of people who followed according to their physical strength. It was a mess and there was no formation. After all, everyone was running for their lives. Then came the bride and groom.
No one dared to look back, and they rode forward desperately. In fact, if they had looked back, they would have found that Shen Moer had already controlled Zhang Zhiqiang. She had to control him. Without the "enemy", he began to change his target, and the first target was Fu Mingze.
This man was really scary when he got drunk.
Of course, it was his momentum that was scary. In fact, his body was weak and his arms were powerless. Not to mention that he couldn't catch up with anyone, even if he caught up, he couldn't hurt anyone. It was estimated that his strength was used up when he slapped Zhang Junliang in the face for the first few times. Otherwise, Shen Moer would have stopped him when he picked up stones to hit people.
Those people in the Zhang family were just scared. If anyone was a little braver, if one person couldn't control Zhang Zhiqiang, two people would definitely be able to control him.
Zheng Jiamin was so happy: "Hey, we can finally let ourselves out of anger!"
I just wonder if he will want to change places to cut in line after waking up and knowing his "strong erection".
"Okay, let's go home."
Fu Mingze got on the bike and tilted his head: "Wife, let's go home."
Shen Moer jumped on the bike and said with a smile: "Okay, let's go home."
"Hey, send her to the bridal chamber--"
Zheng Jiamin shouted with a smile, and others immediately followed suit and shouted "Send her to the bridal chamber".
