Chapter 120 Four Color Ceremony

The old couple said that there were still a lot of things at home, but they didn't agree to stay after all. After lunch, a young man drove the old couple away with a tractor.

Before leaving, the old lady reminded her again and again: "Remember to bring Xiaolong with you on the second day of the Lunar New Year."

According to the local customs, a married daughter should bring her husband and children back to her natal home on the second day of the new year. If there are no elders in her natal family, those who have older brothers should invite the son-in-law to dinner to show respect for the son-in-law. Of course, it is also to make the son-in-law treat his younger sister better. a little.

Although Zhu Sha wasn't married yet, the old couple already regarded their granddaughter as someone else's family, so they didn't let her go back to the village for the New Year.

But you must go on the second day of the new year.

After seeing off the old man and the old lady, Ma Xiaolong turned his head to look at Zhu Sha, and asked, "I'm going to be your son-in-law now?"

Zhu Sha smiled and said, "Why, you are not happy?"

"How can it be!" Ma Xiaolong took her hand and said with emotion: "There is nothing wrong with this evil old custom!"

"..." Zhu Sha rolled her eyes: "You'd better be careful."

"What?" Ma Xiaolong asked, "Hongmen Banquet?"

"It's not, but it's about the same." Zhu Sha said, "My grandfather's village has a rule that women in the village marry outsiders, and when they return to the village with a partner, all the boys in the village who are the same age as the women will run over to marry the woman. If you can survive five rounds, they will recognize you as the son-in-law of their village, if you can't survive..."

"What's the matter?" Ma Xiaolong asked in surprise, "Can they still break up the couple?"

"That's not true." Zhu Sha shook her head and said, "But the woman's natal family will not be able to hold their heads up in the village, and everyone in the village will laugh at their girl for marrying a useless foreigner."

"..."

Ma Xiaolong asked: "How many women in that village successfully married out?"

"I don't know the details, but in the past ten years, only two women were able to return to their natal homes with their husbands and children every year, and none of the others returned."

"..." Ma Xiaolong suddenly thought of one thing: "Sister-in-law's inability to get married, wouldn't it have something to do with this rule?"

"Who knows!" Zhu Sha squinted her eyes and smiled, "But we don't need to worry about this. There is no rule that women cannot bring women back to the village."

ah?This……

……

That night, everyone in Ma Xiaolong's family knew that Zhu Sha and Zhu Sha were going to visit her grandpa and grandma's house on the second day of the Lunar New Year.

Grandpa and grandma understood it as soon as they heard it, and they were so happy from ear to ear: "It's a good thing!"

"What good thing?" Ma Xiaofeng, who bowed his head to cook, didn't understand.

Grandpa smiled and said, "Xiaosha, her grandparents have recognized your brother's grandson-in-law."

"Oh?" Ma Xiaofeng wondered why!So that's it: "My sister Sha is my future sister-in-law, what does it matter if they admit it or not?"

"You girl...that's what you said." Grandpa didn't argue with her, but after all, it was his first visit, and as an old man in the family, he must prepare four-color gifts.

Bringing four-color gifts to the door is equivalent to the man proposing marriage to the woman.If the woman's family is satisfied, they will accept the gift, and if they are not, they will politely refuse.

With the relationship and relationship between Ma Xiaolong and Zhu Sha, the other party will definitely accept it, and giving four-color gifts is just a process.

As for the standard of the four-color ceremony?There is no standard, you can send anything, as long as it is four kinds of things, but in the local area, it is usually snacks and cakes, and of course there are chickens, ducks, fish, tobacco, wine, sugar and tea.

Depending on the woman's needs, she can send whatever she likes.

"Xiaosha, ask your grandpa and grandma, what do they want?" Grandpa said, "I'll prepare in advance."

"Grandpa, don't bother." Zhu Sha said: "Since my grandpa and grandma asked Xiaolong to visit our house in the second year of junior high school, they have already decided on this matter, and there is no need to prepare."

"That's not okay, it's a courtesy." Grandpa said, "You can call and ask! No, I'll tell them directly."

"All right!"

Grandpa insisted that Zhu Sha could only take out her mobile phone and call grandpa's house.

"Hello, who is it?" Grandma answered the call.

"Grandma, it's me... um... isn't this Xiaolong's family who knows that they will come to the door on the second day of the new year! I just want to prepare a four-color gift and ask what you want?... Hehe, I said the same thing, but grandpa said it was Etiquette, grandpa is here too! How about you say it?"

After a while, Zhu Sha handed the phone to grandpa: "It's my grandma."

Grandpa nodded, took the phone, and said, "Hey, is this Xiaosha's grandma?... Hehe, yes, I'm Xiaolong's grandpa... Hello, hello, I don't know, your year is Geng?... Oh, then Younger than me, I will call you big sister... Hehe, big sister, you said that you are here today, but you don't know how to come and sit down!...Hehe, okay, next time you must come and sit, I am such a smoker There are good wine and tea, you and my big brother come here to recognize the door, come often if you have nothing to do..."

After being courteous for a long time, grandpa finally got down to business, but one wanted to be given and the other was not, and both sides were pulling and pulling. In the end, grandpa won the victory. Finally, he decided to bring two boxes of snacks, two boxes of cakes, two cigarettes and two packs of tea. past.

Because it is a happy event, there must be two copies of a single gift, which means "in pairs". There are four kinds of gifts in total, which are the so-called four-color gifts.

When you are young and dating, the first time a boy officially goes to his girlfriend's house, he must prepare four-color gifts at home, otherwise he will be laughed at by others, and his girlfriend's family will think that he does not understand etiquette, and his points will be reduced too much.

"Okay." After hanging up the phone, grandpa returned the phone to Zhu Sha, and said to her and Ma Xiaolong, "Grandpa will prepare the four-color gift later, remember to bring it on the second day of junior high school."

The two nodded: "Okay."

Ma Xiaolong is very emotional. In his previous life, he was a bachelor at the age of 40. In this life, he is only [-] years old and he will go to his girlfriend's house with a four-color gift.

There is also the upcoming five rounds of rounds.

It's no wonder Zhu Sha's family are all very skilled. Born in such a village, even those who are poor in martial arts can't gain a foothold in the village.

……

In Shuangshi Village, a small farmyard.

It is said to be a small courtyard, and the area is not small. The house and the courtyard are about 150 square meters, and the house is [-] square meters. There are nine rooms in total, and there are only five bedrooms.

There is an artificial fish pond on one side of the yard, but the water in it is frozen, and the fish have already been picked up and eaten.

With the fish pond as the dividing line, there is a vegetable garden on the left, a garden on the right, and a training ground on the other side, paved with blue bricks, and weapon racks are placed on all sides. Eighteen types of weapons can be found, as well as unpopular weapons.

This is Zhu Sha's grandfather's house.

Zhu Sha's grandma just hung up the phone, and the old man who was recuperating on the bed said, "Grandpa Xiaolong is too polite, our family doesn't have so many rules."

"Pull it down!" The old lady doesn't know him yet? "That's Xiaolong, try another boy? Your rules can crush people to death."

The old man laughed twice, and said: "Xiaolong has become a golden bell at a young age, and he will definitely earn me a lot of face in the future." Speaking of this, his face darkened: "It's not like that bastard, except for me. Get into trouble, nothing will happen!"

"Okay." The old lady said impatiently: "Is Zhiqiang a thing, but what is less than you these years? The yard we live in now, and the money in the passbook, which one did not give us by Zhiqiang? He is no longer an asshole." , that is also our son, Xiaosha's father."

"Hmph! It's as if I can't earn it." The old man is still not convinced, Zhu Erzhuang has never lowered his head in his life.

"You can do it, you are amazing, your son has gone abroad, there is no one at home, and you drove your daughter away, how capable you are!"

As soon as the old lady opened her mouth, she scolded the old man so much that she couldn't lift her head, and muttered: "I don't want her to get married early! A girl who is almost thirty and still not married, the villagers think there is something wrong with it !"

"What's wrong? Huh! My daughter is a billionaire now. She has had photos taken with the leaders, appeared in newspapers and TV, not to mention the village, but the city. Who can compare with one?"

The old lady's words pierced the old man's heart again, and the old man was speechless.

After taking the old man to vent her anger, the old lady sighed, picked up the phone, and dialed a number.

……

In the capital, Shunyi County, a luxurious manor covering an area of ​​[-] acres, surrounded by mountains and rivers, has been erected in just two years. The manor is surrounded by walls, with lawns, swimming pools, and tennis courts. There are security patrols.

The houses are built in groups, and the interior decoration is even more luxurious. Many people say that this is the residence of the richest man in the capital. Although they are wrong, the owner here is not much worse than the richest man.

It was night now, and Zhu Lingling was eating in the large dining room.Today's dinner is a Chinese delicacy - pot wrapped in meat (yiu).

She still thinks that Chinese food is the most authentic when she eats too much food, which can only be fed to birds. For example, this pot-wrapped meat, if it is Western food, I will give you two slices of meat at most, and I will sell you 100 yuan.Don't think it's expensive, what you want is the nobility of eating western food.

For ordinary Chinese nouveau riche, maybe eating two bites of Western food is a classy person, but for Zhu Lingling, a rich woman who has been to dozens of countries, I can go to you!

It's fine if you don't make people full, and it's expensive!Do you really think I'm a fool?

What western food?What noble?Go ahead and scold the neighbor!Or our Huaxia cuisine is really good, it gives a lot, and it is enjoyable to eat.

While eating deliciously, the mobile phone on the dining table rang.

Xiumei frowned slightly, she really didn't like answering the phone during meal time, but those who could call her at this time were generally of unusual status.

Wipe your mouth, pick up the phone: "Hello, hello."

The sound is elegant and noble.

What is a celebrity! (Tactical back)
"Lingling, it's me, your mother."

"..."

Zhu Lingling was silent for a moment, and asked, "Mom, what's the matter?"

"I have something to do." The old lady said, "Come back this year for Chinese New Year!"

Without waiting for Zhu Lingling to find an excuse, the old lady said: "On the second day of the new year, Xiaolong came to the house to recognize the door and bring four-color gifts. Your brother is not at home, and you, a sister-in-law, have to be here."

"..."

Zhu Lingling sighed: "Got it, I'm a bit busy this year, and I won't be able to go home until the [-]th year."

"It's good if you can come back, and it doesn't matter if you are late." The old lady smiled: "You haven't been home for two years. Mom misses you, and your dad misses you too."

"Who missed her!?" The old man shouted after holding back for a long time: "I..."

The old lady stared, and the old man wilted.

"..."
