Chapter 90 7
Tsui Hark decided to marry Xiaojun.Han Debao was the master of ceremonies, and Zhang Meng and Lao Pan were also invited.Although the ceremony is simple, it is solemn.
Tsui Hark was brand new, his leather shoes were shiny, his tie was brightly colored, his suit was unbuttoned, and he was wearing a waistcoat—he glanced at his watch and muttered, "Boy, why aren't you here?"
Doorbell rang.
He left the living room, intending to open the door—Old Pan had already flashed out of the kitchen first.With an apron around his waist and a kitchen knife in his hand, he opened the door for him.
It was Han Debao who walked in.
Lao Pan said: "You are the only one missing, Tsui Hark is waiting anxiously."
Tsui Hark asked him: "Are you still here? What time is it!"
Han Debao said: "I promised you, I have to come through fire and water. At most one hour later!"
While changing his slippers, he handed the parrot cage to Tsui Hark: "Return it to the original owner. No wonder people don't want to raise it for you. They are too poor. If you don't return it to you, my daughter will follow it I'm poor at school!"
Tsui Hark took it and asked, "Xiaoling willing?"
Han Debao said: "If you can't bear it, you have to pay it back! How can she let her play with things and lose her ambition, and delay her studies. I haven't gone to college, and I still expect my daughter to win me in the future."
As he spoke, he entered the living room, peeled an orange and put it in his mouth.
Zhang Meng pushed Xiao Jun from the bedroom into the living room: "Look, isn't the bride pretty?"
Tsui Hark said, "Well, it's okay..."
Zhang Meng's eyes widened: "What do you mean by 'not bad'? I spent more than half an hour on her make-up and hairdo, so I just leave this comment?"
Xiaojun said: "Don't listen to him! I think it's more beautiful!"
Tsui Hark said: "Why can't you understand? When I said it was okay, that meant—emphasizing that your basic conditions are good, and the technical achievements of construction are secondary..."
Xiaojun said angrily, "I'll hit you!"
Han Debao greeted: "Xiaojun, you haven't called me yet! Have you forgotten who I am?"
Xiaojun smiled shyly: "Brother Han! How dare I forget, you are going to preside over our wedding today!"
Han Debao said: "It's fine if you don't forget, I want to smoke." Tsui Hark quickly grabbed the cigarette case.
Han Debao blocked his arm: "It's not your turn, you don't know the rules!"
Tsui Hark had no choice but to hand over the cigarette case to Xiaojun, and took a step back.
Xiaojun said respectfully: "Brother Han, please smoke..." Then he pressed the lighter to light the cigarette for him...
The parrot said: "Virtue!" All four laughed.
"Don't be so rude. Interject anywhere!" Tsui Hark carried the parrot to the balcony.
Zhang Meng looked at Tsui Hark and said, "Don't move, a white hair..."—she pulled it off for him, and found something again, "There is another... ah, quite a few, have you dyed your hair?"
Tsui Hark took a look at Xiaojun, and admitted against his will: "It's been dyed once, it's been a long time..."
Zhang Meng said: "No wonder black and white are clearly distinguished! Well, it's not one or two, and I can't help it..."
Xiaojun smiled and said, "I'm so sorry that I married an old man!"
Han Debao pointed to Tsui Hark and said, "It's fake and shoddy, let's show it."
Lao Pan walked in with a "Xin'er Limei" radish that had been cut a few times, and shared it with everyone, saying, "This radish is extremely crisp!"
Everyone eats carrots.
Tsui Hark said: "How hypocritical people are! When we were young, when we saw steamed buns, we would cry when we couldn't eat them! Now, people have to pay a higher price than fine grains to buy coarse grains. Vegetables don't have to pay for it. It’s open for sale, and everyone likes to eat wild vegetables again. Bananas, apples, oranges, pears are all in front of them, if you don’t eat them, you will eat radishes.”
Xiaojun said: "Does every generation have to remember the bitterness and sweetness of the next generation?"
Zhang Meng said: "Basically, this is human inheritance."
Lao Pan said: "It's okay not to admit it. The life of the next generation is generally happier than ours!"
Han Debao said: "Yes, just like our fathers remembered bitterness and sweetness for us, we also began to tell our next generation about the grievances of the times we have suffered all day long. It seems to be a little bit more balanced. This proves too many things, mainly proves that we are really getting old."
Xiaojun said: "In the future when we have children, I will not allow him to nag about our children all day long. Why? What is it about jealousy?"
Han Debao looked at her, looked at Xu Ke, and asked seriously: "You two, there is no generation gap, right?"
"Even if there is such a thing, he has to take the initiative to fill it up and step over to me!" Xiao Jun looked at Tsui Hark, "Is it the child's father?"
Zhang Meng patted Xiaojun on the back and said with a smile, "You are too advanced!"
Xiaojun said: "You need to walk faster! Didn't you see that his hair is all gray?"
Pressure cooker puffing sound.Lao Pan pulled away.
Han Debao asked: "Hey, um... um... Where's the little guy?"
Tsui Hark said: "I carried it to the balcony, so as not to make it poor forever."
Han Debao looked at Xiaojun and said, "I'm not talking about a parrot...I didn't see you leading a parrot last time..."
Xiaojun smiled shyly: "That's the child of the crew, I play his mother, he plays my son, I call him son, he calls me mother, they are all fluent, and I won't let me play his mother, let me Acting as a female corpse in the closet..."
Tsui Hark said: "I still have the face to say it. Remember, you are not allowed to dream of becoming a celebrity in the future! If you become a wife, you can also be famous!"
Han Debao also smiled: "Then, about your husband who is a director, is it also something in the plot?"
Xiaojun felt embarrassed.
Lao Pan called from the kitchen: "Zhang Meng, come help..."
Zhang Meng stood up and walked to the kitchen.
Han Debao looked at Xu Ke: "How is it? I didn't make a mistake, did I?"—Looking at Xiaojun, he said, "During the time you left, he had other plans! Thanks to the public security department. It's not that he went in soon, the bride today is probably someone else!"
Tsui Hark smiled.
Xiaojun said: "Hmph, I was also testing him, I gave him a chance, I didn't expect him to be so lucky!" When the food was put on the table, Xiaojun called out, "Everyone, please take a seat! "
In Tsui Hark's parents' room, five people sat around a table. The portraits of Tsui Hark's parents, looking at them from the wall. Han Debao said: "Find me another clothes to change into. It's not right to preside over a wedding in a police uniform, as if the two of them have been transformed." Just as Xu Ke was about to get up, Lao Pan held him down.He took off his overalls from the back of the chair and handed them to Han Debao: "Put on mine!" When Han Debao was changing clothes, Tsui Hark said to Zhang Meng: "If you don't post happy words, don't set off firecrackers, and don't show off, they are all for the downstairs. The old lady regrets her second daughter! Let's do things. You can't put eye drops in people's eyes, can you?" Xiaojun said: "As long as you are thoughtful, you appear to be sneaky. It seems like a secret gathering of several underground workers!" Zhang Meng said: "He's right in thinking about it. Those who live upstairs and downstairs don't see those who look up. Try not to make them feel jealous..." Xiaojun said: "Then I said to do it in a restaurant, but he doesn't agree, can't you afford it?" Tsui Hark said: "Look at you, haven't I already told you! When my name is published in the newspapers, I am also a news person! Some reporters are worrying that they have nothing serious to write about. Here you go again A piece of lace. We don't want to be famous all over the world, we just want to live a peaceful life without them reporting it." Lao Pan, who had been mixing cold dishes and pouring beer, agreed: "Yes, yes, this is better! Debao, do you think so?" Han Debao looked at Xu Ke, as if praising: "I can't see, I can't see, you have really become sensible. Why did I ask in advance to put the table in this hut? Because here is equal to two old people. Together." - He turned his head to look at the portrait on the wall, "They are two good old men! Good people, bad fate. We owe too much to our parents. Some of them still have a chance Filial piety, some don't even have the chance to show filial piety. We can't talk and laugh in another room and leave the two old people alone here. Now, please stand up." Everyone stood up solemnly. "Xu Hark, Xiaojun, you two stand in front of the old man's statue." Han Debao said seriously. The two left the table and stood in front of the statue. Han Debao stood beside them, looking at the portrait: "Master, Madam, today, I preside over the wedding ceremony for brothers Xu Hark and Xiaojun. This is a day you have been looking forward to for a long time. Actually, I understand that he is very concerned about his personal feelings. It's a lifelong event, and he was secretly anxious. It's just that he wanted to find someone he liked, and now he found it. You two elders, under Jiuquan, you should be happy for him. If we drink two more cups in a while, we will be happy for you You have acted presumptuously in front of the elders, just think that today is a happy day, please forgive us as juniors! Tsui Hark and Xiao Jun, please bow to the two elders." Tsui Hark said, "No, I have to kowtow to my parents." He knelt down and kowtowed. Xiaojun hesitated for a moment, then knelt down and kowtowed... After they kowtowed and stood up, Xiao Jun asked, "Brother, can I say something from my heart to the two old men?" Han Debao nodded. Xiaojun said: "Mom, although I haven't seen you, I often heard Tsui Hark say that you were paralyzed early, and he went to the countryside early, and when he returned to the city, you were gone. But He treats you with a heart of filial piety. My Xiaojun is just for him, and I believe that he is a good man... Sir, as for you, I will not say anything superfluous. My Xiaojun will use practical actions It proves that I can be a good wife, a good daughter-in-law, and a good mother, and we must assure you and the elders that we will raise and educate our third generation, and let our children go to college and become a doctor." Tsui Hark cast a satisfied glance at Xiaojun. Han Debao made a gesture, and everyone sat down again. Han Debao said: "In this way, we eat and drink, we should talk and laugh, and I feel at ease. Otherwise, as the host, I feel strange and uneasy. Come, let the bride and groom live a peaceful and beautiful life. When you grow old, do it!" So everyone clinked glasses. Lao Pan said: "This is my handicraft. This is Zhang Meng's specialty dish—she said it herself, whether it is good or not, you will know it after eating it!"——As he said, he put it in the guest's bowl. Tsui Kelian said: "It's delicious, it's delicious." Xiaojun asked: "Sister Zhang, what is the name of this dish?" Zhang Meng said: "Longjing Sanxian, if you want to learn it sincerely, I will sincerely accept you as an apprentice, and someday I will teach you!" Han Debao said: "Xiaojun, your sister Hao Mei went to Daqing to experience life. Where is your big brother Zhenqing?" , now in the United States, Brother Xiaosong is in Japan, and we, on behalf of them, handed over Tsui Hark to you today. You have accepted it face to face today. This is called the goods, and you will not be responsible for it. From now on, he will become What kind of person you are, depends on how well you train yourself." Xiao Jun squinted at Tsui Hark: "Did you hear that? Tell me to teach you well!" Zhang Meng: "We don't implement the Three Guarantees!" Everyone laughed. The food on the table has been reduced - a fruit platter has been added. Tsui Hark was singing: "We young people have a fiery heart..." - he passed a glass of beer to Zhang Meng beside him. Zhang Meng took the cup: "The sun in my heart is warm and warm..." The cup was passed to Han Debao beside him. Han Debao: "Nuan...nuan...don't come up." The crowd shouted, "Drink! Drink!" Zhang Meng said: "Actually, I wanted to sing - the newly built house, the white walls, and the portrait of Chairman Mao hanging in the house..." Han Debao said: "Then why don't you sing? If I don't, then I can pick it up——Move forward, move forward, is our team facing the sun?" Zhang Meng said: "Is it intentional to make you unable to connect?" Han Debao drank the wine in one gulp, filled the glass, and sang: "Sister, you go forward boldly..."—passing the wine glass to Lao Pan. Lao Pan sang: "Walk up to this high Xing'an Mountains..." and passed the cup to Xiaojun. Xiaojun: "Ling..." Also "Ling" can't come up. Old Pan said: "For the sake of you being a bride, I'll give you a word - I'm looking to the south..." Xiaojun racked his brains to roll his eyes: "Fang..." Lao Pan said: "It's too hard for you. Let me add a few more words to you-there is a vast grassland under the mountain, which is my lovely hometown..." Xiao Jun sang as if rescued: "Folks, folks..." Tsui Hark scratched his cheeks... he couldn't think of what "we" should pick up. Xiao Jun hurriedly continued to sing: "The Huang family forced debts, beat my father to death!" Tsui Hark sang: "The sky is big and the earth is big..." The crowd shouted, "Drink! Drink!" Xiao Jun glared at him: "You are so stupid! You are picking up your parents!" Tsui Hark said: "I thought so, but my tongue bent..."
It was late at night, and Han Debao and others left one after another. Tsui Hark and his wife were lying on the bed, talking quietly. Xiaojun said: "You don't care about what I...have done with other men before?" Tsui Hark shook his head. Xiaojun couldn't believe it: "Are you really... so liberated?" Tsui Hark stroked her shoulder: "It's not about liberation or not. I've been through it too. It's like being in the rivers and lakes. Sometimes you have to admit and endure everything. There's nothing you can do about it. Besides, you're a woman." Xiaojun said: "But I swear. This time, I will definitely not have those liars pretending to be film crews!...I think I have to care about you for you at least once! Don't you believe it?" "I believe……" Tsui Hark said and shed tears. Xiaojun was a little anxious: "What's the matter with you? You still... care about... marrying me, you still feel wronged, don't you?" Tsui Hark said: "No, it's not... In the past ten years, I have used money to buy a man's needs... One, from the beginning to the end, didn't say a word to me. I asked her what, Either shaking her head or nodding, depending on how I manipulate her, she just keeps silent. Xiaojun, although I have a filial heart, I am not as good as you think...I...I can't forget the look in her eyes at that time , and her expression...behind her forced smile, there is a kind of hatred for a man like me who has some money..." Xiaojun hugged his head in his arms, and said as if comforting a repentant child: "Don't be too serious with yourself, and don't be too hard on yourself, it will be fine from now on, from now on, you have me... ...I want to love you so much that you feel that your wife is first-rate." She cupped his face and kissed him affectionately...
In Tsui Hark's parents' room, five people sat around a table. The portraits of Tsui Hark's parents, looking at them from the wall. Han Debao said: "Find me another clothes to change into. It's not right to preside over a wedding in a police uniform, as if the two of them have been transformed."
