Chapter 5 Section 5

The medicine is almost finished, and the vacation is almost over, I feel sleepy and stare at the ceiling, and suddenly remember that the 16th of this month is the wedding day of my friend Xiaoya, so I hurried to the supermarket to buy a red envelope, If you wrap eight hundred and eighty-eight auspicious numbers, the gift will be waived, and now everyone is living an affordable life.I'm planning to pack my bag and go to work tomorrow, I'm used to sitting around, eating and drinking, it's really painful to go to work and earn money!The phone rang, and Cao Cao and Cao Cao would be there, but it was Xiaoya's voice who was about to cry: "He Lin, help me! Please, on my wedding day, you want to come and be a bridesmaid!"

He Lin stumbled in fright, "I, I, I, how can I be! There are still a few days, big sister! Where's the bridesmaid?" "Isn't she admitted to graduate school? She went to class, so she couldn't ask for leave that day." "But I'm prettier than you!" "The fire is imminent, and the beautiful bridesmaids have also accepted it." The original bridesmaid was their mutual friend, named Chen Zhe, but the wedding was delayed again and again, and she couldn't take it anymore, so she left Xiamen to study journalism and never came back.But this time is only four days, and the bridesmaid is not a vase, there are too many things to do and remember, and the position is small and the responsibility is great.It's time for He Lin to cry, "Boss, it's the first time that you have to give some practice time to catch the ducks on the shelves!"

At this time, Xiaoya calmly told her a few things to pay attention to: 1. Keep the rings of the bride and groom; Communication with mothers; 5. Others to be discussed. He Lin was dumbfounded, "So many? Why don't you just be your secretary." Xiaoya sighed deeply in a deep tone: "Please, it has been simplified. Help me, everyone will take this step sooner or later, let's be considerate to each other, at least I have passed this hurdle, and I will be justified." "Didn't you get the certificate?" "Her mother doesn't admit it, so she has to hold a banquet."

Yo, it's grandma again. "His mother doesn't admit it, his mother is a caveman? What kind of society is it, what's the matter with his mother? You two can live well!" "Ai——" sighed again, "Without the permission of my mother-in-law, can we think about it? Don't say anything, let's satisfy her old man's wish first. It's not someone else, but my husband's mother, so it's just for her." My husband is fine." He Lin wanted to say: It really doesn't look like your personality.But nothing was said. Everyone has their own hard-to-recite scriptures.In my aunt's opinion, this couple is "the right family". They are both from the city and the children of the working class.Xiaoya studied in a foreign-related hotel vocational high school, and has been working in a five-star hotel. From a waiter to a lobby manager, it is very good. Now she is studying in an adult junior college. She is also good-looking. She is more attractive than He Lin and Chen Zhe. , tall, with elegant manners, a pair of beautiful big eyes, polite and generous in dealing with others, she can be regarded as one of the best beauties in a hundred.With her support, the tense days at home have gradually eased, and one foot has entered a well-off life.

Her boyfriend Fang Hongjun, whom she loves to death, is a "sea turtle" who came back from studying in Japan. Shunyi in the outer suburbs.The two met in a hotel, and fell in love with each other as soon as they came and went. Soon after, they became gluey and began a secret cohabitation life outside.Xiaoya is the kind of girl with self-respect, independence, and cheerful personality, but her thoughts are passed on from her mother. She is very traditional. When she has a lover, she fantasizes about living a family life of a good wife and mother.Why did Fang Haigui never mention taking her home for a visit? She couldn't help but press her, and "Haitui" faltered and said: His mother disagreed.

In fact, Fang Haigui's mother was not easy. Her husband died early. She, a widowed mother, raised her son with feces and urine. It will be a few years to enjoy the blessings, but I don't want my son to marry a wife so soon. Xiaoya loves the sea turtle deeply, and Ai Wuji Wudi loves the mother of the sea turtle. He regards her as his own mother and tells her earnestly that not only does the son not lose his son by marrying a wife, but he also gains a daughter who loves, respects and takes care of her.To show their sincerity, Xiaoya and Haigui also used their savings to buy a three-bedroom house in "Liuli Bridge", and transferred their mother-in-law from the dilapidated one-bedroom house to a new house of 140 square meters.

In such a tumultuous relationship, Xiaoya and Haigui got their certificates, but the wine setting ceremony was postponed from May 1st to June 6th, then to August 16th, and now it is October 12th. . Oops, it's complicated, I have a splitting headache, I'm going to put it in my own home, it's definitely going to be yellow.According to my aunt's sharp mouth: Isn't this a rush to get married?hit out!Just scolding can also be scolded all over the floor. Isn't it a good friend? You have to attack both sides.In the next four days, He Lin will go to work for eight hours, and the rest of the time will be spent on how to be a bridesmaid, determine the route to pick up the bride, determine the time for the bride to put on makeup, determine the bride's dresses, the time for changing clothes, and the corresponding jewelry ...Fortunately, Xiaoya is an organized person, every step of the whole process should be clearly written in words, and she even drew a sketch for the eight tables of banquets in the wedding hall.

"Oh, only eight tables?" "Few people are invited, my friends and colleagues, his friends and colleagues. His mother said that her family has few relatives, and my mother will not let relatives come." "why?" "His mother still disagrees, and neither does my mother." "Why doesn't your mother agree?" "Just because the fuck doesn't agree." For this marriage, He Lin felt depressed for Xiaoya, she might as well stop drinking and just take the money to travel and get married.Of course, my mother-in-law will not agree. After the whole incident, He Lin realized the importance of mother-in-law, "shadow cabinet".

This event was too grand, and He Lin was afraid that she would be nervous and forget something, so she copied a list in detail, called Chuanzhi, and asked him to remind him when necessary during the wedding. Chuanzhi was very happy to see that He Lin took the initiative to take care of him, and ran over to get the bill, he laughed: "It's like our wedding rehearsal." "There are more than eight tables of guests in my house!" "The more the better, the more gift money. Ha ha." He Lin took the opportunity to warn him: "Your mother is not allowed to make trouble for us!"

Wang Chuanzhi has a good temper, "How could it be, my mother wishes you to marry me soon." On October 12th, which happened to be the weekend, He Lin jumped up at two o'clock in the morning and asked Chuanzhi to come over and take her to the bride's natal home to watch the bride's make-up.Chuanzhi is very obedient, he will be there in 40 minutes, he trotted all the way here, saving money and exercising. "Aren't you afraid that there will be robbers on the road?" "I'm a man, you have to support me even if you are robbed." "You don't have ten or eight dollars with you?"

After another half an hour, I arrived at Xiaoya's house.In a very old and unreasonable small public house, Xiaoya's mother was crying in the back room, as if her daughter was not getting married but going to the execution ground.Xiaoya happily discussed hairstyles with the makeup artist in her room, He Lin was busy arranging things and clearing her mind in the living room, and was always waiting for the bride's call; Chuanzhi watched at the door for a while, curious, this Beijing married woman Daughter, it doesn't seem to be very festive and lively. Here comes the float, a rented stretch Lincoln, followed by a string of Hondas.The firecrackers sounded, and the bride couldn't wait, and was anxious to ask the groom to carry her to the car. When she went downstairs, she happily waved to the bridegroom, and the polygonal beads on the white gloves were shining.The convoy made a circle on the Fourth Ring Road first, and arrived at the hotel after eleven o'clock. The bridesmaid He Lin, who was as excited as the bride, saw the key character - the man's mother - at the main table for the first time.There was no smile at all, and she stared straight at the clay sculpture. The woman's parents sat at the main table opposite, and they also had gloomy faces, which made it impossible for others to enjoy themselves.Weddings are supposed to be lively. When the master of ceremonies announced the exchange of rings, an astonishing scene occurred. He Lin took out the two platinum rings that had been solemnly kept for a day, but the groom couldn't put them on the ring finger no matter what!When the bride looked back at the maid of honor in amazement, He Lin was about to cry, and swore in her heart: neither was it stolen, nor exchanged, nor was it wrong. Fortunately, the groom didn't care about it, and put it on his first knuckles, and then quietly covered it with the engagement gold ring.There is a bride who looks like a flower and a jade, anyway, few people will pay attention to what is on his finger. When the master of ceremonies announced a toast to the parents of the bride and groom, there was another embarrassing scene for both parties.Under the repeated urging of the master of ceremonies, the groom's mother sat still and didn't move. At any rate, under the groom's persuasion, she reluctantly stood up and leaned towards the couple, sipping the wine glass with her lips.It was the turn of respecting the woman's parents. According to the principle of reciprocity, she didn't move after calling three times. When Xiaoya stepped forward to persuade her with tears in her eyes, the parents stood up tremblingly. After getting married to this point, there is only depression and embarrassment left. He Lin returned home exhausted and saw her aunt making dumplings in the living room.My aunt regards her sister's house as half of her own. She comes over to play when she has nothing to do, and helps cook and clean up the housework when her brother-in-law is away.He Lin was closer to this aunt than her own mother, and spent most of her time from the age of one to seven by her side. At that time, her mother was studying for a Ph. .This is why the whole family treats my aunt well now.The room next to He Chong was also reserved for his aunt.My aunt definitely has the position of "number three" in this family. After sitting down, He Lin talked about the whole process of today's wedding. Sure enough, my aunt frowned, "This Xiaoya, such a good girl, what is she trying to do? Her head is caught in the door? It makes my parents feel uncomfortable and ashamed!" "She and Fang Haigui are indeed in love." "Fall in love! What the fuck is wrong with falling in love?" "Well, mother is very stubborn anyway, all the guests in the hall are looking at her." "Putting it out, pervert! The widow's son—I managed to drag the eldest son to other women in a blink of an eye, it's no wonder I'm comfortable!" "However, Xiaoya's parents also put on a show, so it's probably to save face." "If I were the woman's parents, I would pull up my daughter and leave immediately. Do you want to lose face? Okay, I will make you lose face!" "But they have already received their certificates." "Divorce, one million compensation for mental damage to the woman! Barefoot is not afraid of wearing shoes. When dealing with such an uneasy family member, you can only restrain her if you are more tyrannical than her." He Lin sighed, and said something about the ring with some grievances. Yu Huaqing was stunned for a moment, her rich life experience and knowledge made her easily say: "Since you kept the ring well and didn't lose it - it's not your responsibility, it's because of that old scourge who messed with it. She wants to read jokes. In this world, there are parents with all kinds of hearts!" He Lin sighed again, "Xiaoya is restrained by her mother-in-law." "Silly girl, she jumped into the fire pit even though she knew it. Who is to blame? Her parents didn't do well in the prevention class. Can this disabled single-parent family marry casually? The single-parent family life is not sound, which makes the child's personality flawed. It's either too meaty or irritable. Although you won't be able to see it for a while, it will be reflected after a long time. What do you want me to do? Although I am also single, but it is too late. I know that both of your cousins ​​were adults when the beast cheated. It doesn't affect them, but it affects me. One of my opinions on the marriage of your two cousins ​​is that you don't find a single-family family, and you don't get along well." He Lin sighed: "Chuanzhi is not a single parent, is he? He was almost an adult when his father passed away." "Your future mother-in-law—" Yu Huaqing snapped his fingers resoundingly, "Observe slowly, no—look—OK!"
