Dozens of large steamers are piled up on the stove, and this end is the hot dishes prepared the day before, one dish per layer, and when the time comes to pick up the bride and start the banquet, the dishes will be served in order.

When Old Uncle Li saw Li Qi, he hurriedly stepped forward and asked him to sit on the table where he had prepared the brush and notebook. Today, there are many people busy, so he didn't care about those formalities.Li Qi gave him the gift and got busy.

Little Bao'er was next to him, doing some work like handing things around.At the beginning, I was very excited, but after a long time, I became tired.At this time, Dr. Mo and the little carpenter came to give gifts, saying that Aunt Li had invited them to pick up the bride later.

According to the custom in the village, when a wedding is going on, the man's family needs to go to the woman's house with drums and gongs to pick up the bride and the woman's guests, and then hold the ceremony.And those who follow the bridegroom to pick up the bride are unmarried men and women invited by the groom's family to go together.Doctor Mo and the little carpenter are not just two unmarried men.

Seeing that Bao'er was bored, Li Qi was worried that he would not be able to take care of him when he became busy later, so he simply asked Dr. Mo to take Bao'er with him, so as to experience the lively atmosphere.

Bao'er hesitated for a moment. Curiosity got the upper hand. When everyone set off, she went out with Dr. Mo and the wedding party.

Li Ding's wife is the daughter of Zhang's family in Hongzhaomen, a neighboring village of Xiaoshan Village. Hongzhaomen is not far from Xiaoshan Village.But the custom in the village is that you can’t take the same road when you go to pick up your relatives and when you come back. , implying that the couple will live a smooth life in the future.

Bao'er followed the team, rolling her eyes, feeling extremely novel everywhere she saw.When Dr. Mo flirted with the little carpenter, he didn't forget to keep up with little Bao'er, and even lost little Bao'er, Li Qi still skinned him.Bao'er caught sight of the matchmaker at the front of the line with big red flowers on her head and a swaying handkerchief, her eyes widened curiously, she pulled Dr. Mo's sleeve and asked, "Who is that?"

"That's a matchmaker. Little Bao'er can't offend him. If you want to get married in the future, you have to ask him." Doctor Mo joked.

"Married?" Bao'er tilted her head, not understanding.

"You don't know what marriage is?" Doctor Mo held his forehead, approached Bao'er with a smirk, and said, "It's just like what Li Ding did today. He went to pick up his bride and came back to worship the world. The two lived together and had three children." Four cubs, and live like this for the rest of your life."

Bao'er frowned in thought, the little carpenter pulled Bao'er over, gave Doctor Mo a look, and said, "Don't listen to his nonsense!"

Dr. Mo was wronged: "Little Shitou, why am I just talking nonsense, which one do you think is not like this." After speaking, as if thinking of something, he leaned into the little carpenter's ear and said ambiguously: "Of course we are two exceptions. Impossible to have a baby."

The little carpenter was furious, beat him up, and pulled Xiao Bao'er away.

Bao'er was dragged away by him, only frowning and thinking about his own thoughts. Marriage means picking up the bride and paying homage to the hall, and the two of them live together. He and Zhongxuan lived together, but the two of them If one of them didn't pay homage, would the two of them be considered married?What is it to have a baby, and how can I have a baby? Doctor Mo said that it takes three or four births, and the two of them can last a lifetime.

Bao'er frowned and asked the little carpenter: "How do you give birth to a baby?"

The little carpenter's face instantly became hot and flushed, "Just,, that's it?"

Bao'er looked at him curiously: "What kind?"

"Just,,, the couple sleeps together, and there will be a cub." The little carpenter closed his eyes and finished in one breath.

Bao'er wondered, he and Zhongxuan slept together every day, could it be that he also had a son, his eyes widened, "Where is the son?"

The little carpenter was puzzled, with a dazed look on his face, Bao'er thought that the little carpenter must not know where Xiao Zaizai was, so he had better go back and ask Zhongxuan.Bao'er, who had figured it out, smiled brightly, they could be together for the rest of their lives, and there was Xiao Zai Zai.

The people who greet relatives normally have to have a meal at the woman's house before leaving, so the people who greet relatives all go to the woman's house for breakfast.When I was full, I went to meet the bride and walked to my husband's house.Sure enough, when Bao'er and his party arrived at Zhang's house, the people there invited them to go in and prepare, and the banquet was held soon.

Bao'er was forced to drink a bowl of porridge by Li Qi when he went out this morning, but now he is not very hungry, he is full after not eating much.Dr. Mo was full of affection for the little carpenter with vegetables and soup, trying his best to please, Xiao Baoer felt sad when he saw it, he wanted Zhongxuan.Frowning his nose, he quickly went back.

After the big guys had a good meal, the bride who was wearing a red wedding dress and a red hijab was welcomed out.The bride and groom served tea with the bride's parents, and the bride was carried on the sedan chair by the groom's officer.Firecrackers were crackling, suona, gongs and drums were ringing, and five or six-year-old innocent children were singing cute songs and begging for red envelopes. It was very lively for a while.The team of welcoming relatives set foot on the way home again.

The team going back was stronger than when they came, and the relatives who sent the woman to marry also walked together. Everyone laughed and laughed all the way, so happy.But Bao'er wished she could get her wings and go back quickly.

In Bao'er's eager mood, the welcoming team finally arrived at the small mountain village. The village saw the team arriving from a distance, so they took out the firecrackers and set them off. Here they blew the suona and gongs and drums.The bride had to go through the brazier and many other formalities to enter the door. Bao'er couldn't wait, so she told Doctor Mo and the other two, left the team, and went in.

Dr. Mo thought for a while, and he was already at the door of the house. There should be nothing wrong, so he let him go.

It was almost noon now, and all the guests who were due to come had arrived, so Li Qi took away the table where the love book was written.Bao'er and the others are coming back soon, and I don't know how Bao'er is doing.Li Qi shook his head and smiled wryly. He was really dazed. After leaving for a while, he actually started to miss him.

He couldn't help laughing at himself, what would he do if Bao'er left?Just thinking about it, my heart couldn't help but tighten up, feeling like a ball of cotton was stuck in my throat.

Li Qi was thinking about it when he heard Bao'er calling him.Looking up, I saw Bao'er walking like him, looking very eager.Li Qi breathed a sigh of relief for no reason, how could Bao'er leave him, they are a family.

Wiping the sweat from his brow when he walked too quickly, he said with a smile, "Why are you walking in such a hurry?"

Bao'er was next to him, with a small face full of grievances, and said: "I miss you." After all, Xiao Bao'er was pure in heart, didn't know what it was to beat around the bush, and said what was on his mind.

Li Qi was stunned, pinched his cheek, and said softly: "I miss you too."

After going through a series of tedious procedures at the door, the newcomers finally entered the door, invited old Uncle Li and Aunt Li to sit on the top, and only heard the ceremony officer shout: "Please newcomers!"

The bride and groom holding red silk came in, following the commands of first bow to heaven and earth, second bow to high hall, husband and wife pray to each other, and finally the ritual officer shouted a word of "Licheng" and sent them to the bridal chamber, and the bride and groom were sent to the bridal chamber.Of course, after drinking a cup of wine in the bridal chamber and forming a sympathetic knot, when the couple changes into their auspicious clothes, they still have to come out to toast their relatives and friends table by table.

Everyone also dispersed, each sat at the table, and the banquet was officially opened.Little Bao'er smiled with crooked eyebrows, thinking in her heart that this is the worship hall.Li Qi felt a chill down his spine for no reason, his hair shuddered.

After dinner, in the afternoon, the two of them watched and watched people of the same generation make newcomers. The custom of making newcomers in the village has a long history, and there are many tricks.The two newlyweds were greeted by various strange moves in turn. In the end, the groom's official felt sorry for his new wife, and made a bow and kept begging for mercy, which made everyone laugh.Later, when Uncle Li's family was too busy, he helped the meeting to see off the guests. He was about to say goodbye and leave, but Uncle Li insisted on keeping them for dinner.Li Qi couldn't refuse, so he had to agree.After dinner, the two finally returned home after a day's absence.

After returning home and washing up, Li Qi burned the kang and was about to go to bed, when he came back, he saw Bao'er wandering around in the main room.Pulling him over and asking what was going on, Xiao Baoer frowned and said, "Are you going to worship?"

Li Qicai found out that he took the two small bronze figurines he bought for him a while ago and put them on the stool to fill the hall, and he did not know where to find the festival red cloth, and he took one end into his hand and the other end into Li Qi's hand .Li Qi was so smothered by him, it was because he was in the mood of a child, today he saw someone worshiping him and got playful, so he had to play around with him.

Little Bao'er had a serious face, she took up the post of courtesy officer herself, and learned the courtesy officer's password and tone in a decent way.Seeing that Li Qi couldn't help smiling, Little Bao'er flew over with a squint, Li Qi had no choice but to hold back his smile, and play with him in the wedding ceremony.

With Xiao Baoer's ceremony, the two were finally sent to the "bridal chamber".Little Baoer was tired after a day of fuss, and fell asleep shortly after laying down. Before going to bed, he murmured something "Little Cub", but Li Qi didn't understand it, he just pretended that he was talking nonsense when he fell asleep. .He also pulled the quilt and fell asleep.

Unknowingly, Bao'er has been here for several months, and the sound of firecrackers and suona when Li Ding married his wife is still echoing in the village, and the New Year is ushered in again.As always, the small mountain village is deep in the mountains, like a quiet and delicate girl, introverted and reserved.

As the days gradually entered the severe winter, Li Qi wrapped Bao'er's body layer after layer, and Bao'er's thin body was wrapped into a small ball by him.After the winter solstice, Li Qi suspended the school classes, and resumed classes in the next spring after the severe cold.

The New Year is approaching, and every household in the village exudes a festive atmosphere, and people's faces are full of smiles, and they are all preparing for the festival of this big group member.In the past, Li Qi didn't have any special feelings for the Chinese New Year.
