Labor Day, May 1st, is also the day Liang Xiaobing gets married. Liang Xiaobing solemnly sent an invitation to Yan Ruxu, inviting Yan Ruxu to attend her wedding. On the day of the wedding, Yan Ruxu went to attend as scheduled, and offered a gift of 10 yuan in the ceremony room, and accidentally saw a person named Kang Yuanzheng in the gift book who gave a gift of 100 yuan.
This Xi Yuanzheng was a moth, Yan Ruxu looked around, didn't see Xi Yuanzheng, presumably he wouldn't lose his eyesight enough to stay and add trouble to Liang Xiaobing.
The bride, Liang Xiaobing, wore a western-style white wedding dress, the groom wore a suit and tie, and relatives from the same family acted as master of ceremonies. A Chinese-Western wedding ceremony was held in the banquet hall of the Capital Hotel. This was Yan Ruxu's first time attending a wedding, before she only attended the ceremony, but never attended the banquet.
She was arranged at the woman's table of relatives and friends, a table of ten people, depending on the age and the content of the conversation, except for herself, the people at this table were all Liang Xiaobing's classmates, there were elementary school and middle school students, and they were in twos and threes. Yan Ruxu looked at the wedding ceremony on the stage for a while, and listened to the conversations of the people on the left and right, and found it very interesting.
Licheng, the bride and groom changed their clothes and toasted at the table. Liang Xiaobing put on a lot of makeup today, she looked okay on stage, but she felt a little horrified when she watched it up close, with a flushed face, dark silhouette, and couldn't tell whether it was blue or green eye shadow...but it was ok Today, the happy smile on the bride's face neutralizes the thrill of heavy makeup.
It could be seen that Liang Xiaobing was quite satisfied with the wedding. Her groom was about the same age as him, and he was a completely different type from Xi Yuanzheng. He was gentle, not good at words, and seemed an honest man.
Liang Xiaobing came to their table and toasted Yan Ruxu first: "Why did I arrange you to sit here, I asked them to arrange you to sit at the table of the guest of honor."
Yan Ruxu smiled, she was not qualified to be the guest of honor, and she didn't care whether Liang Xiaobing's words were polite or not, so she raised her glass and said, "Happy newlyweds!"
Liang Xiaobing: "Thank you for the honor of coming to my wedding today!" As he spoke, he drank a small cup of white wine and said, "I'll do it, you can do whatever you want."
Yan Ruxu took a sip. She doesn't compete with the bride for drinking. The other's wine glass is white water, but her wine glass is real white wine. Someone held the wine bottle and followed the bride and groom all the way, and was responsible for filling the bride and groom's wine glasses when they were empty. The wine bottle was filled with cold boiled water. To pretend that it is white wine, each table of ten people drink a toast to each other, it must be alcohol poisoning.
This is a customary routine at weddings, unless there is a grudge against someone who wants to mess up the wedding, no one will take it seriously.
"I'll introduce my partner to you." Liang Xiaobing said, "rescued" the bridegroom officer who was surrounded by her classmates for drinking, pulled her to Yan Ruxu, and gave a formal introduction. The bridegroom officer was very shy and not good at words, his face was flushed and swollen at the moment, and he seemed at a loss, Guan Yan called her sister like this, thanked her for coming to the wedding, and then he was speechless.
Liang Xiaobing asked Yan Ruxu in a low voice: "Better than Xi Yuanzheng."
Yan Ruxu actually nodded and said, "You guys are more suitable for talents."
This groom is indeed a different type from Xi Yuanzheng, and looks very stable. In the words of later generations, Xi Yuanzheng is a "social bull", but the groom is a "social fear."
Liang Xiaobing looked at her husband affectionately, and was not unhappy because of his stupidity. She pushed her newlywed husband, who was being entangled by her middle school classmates, and said, "Sister Yan, I will deal with them first. We will deal with them another day." chat."
"Go and do your work."
Yan Ruxu sat down to eat in a down-to-earth manner. The wedding banquet food at Jingcheng Hotel tasted good. Among them was a piece of elbow, which was probably stewed and then roasted. The skin was crisp and glutinous. Bring Kang Congxin and Kang Kang over to have a taste.
When Yan Ruxu returned home after the banquet, it was only after 1 p.m. Xi Yuanzheng was sitting on the sofa in the living room, and Kangkang sat across from him a little listlessly.
Yan Ruxu greeted Xi Yuanzheng first, then hugged Kangkang who rushed over, rubbed his little head and asked, "Why didn't you take a nap? Where's Dad?"
Before Kangkang could speak, Xi Yuanzheng replied, "Kangkang woke up in the middle of his sleep, and cried and said that he missed his mother. Brother Kang San went to help me find something."
At this time, Kang Congxin also came out of the utility room, holding a tape in his hand, and handed it to Xi Yuanzheng, but he looked at Yan Ruxu, and seeing that her face was flushed, he asked, "Have you been drinking?"
Yan Ruxu rubbed her cheeks, feeling a little hot, "I just took a sip, the bride came to toast, so I had to drink it." He looked at the tape again, it was an album released by the famous military female singer Su Mingming two years ago.
Xi Yuanzheng put the tape in his pocket, thinking that the tape was from Yan Ruxu, and he had to explain it to her no matter what he borrowed, so he took out the tape again and waved it in front of Yan Ruxu to let her see it clearly. , Said: "I'll go back and record a disc, and I'll return it."
"Ah?" Xi Yuanzheng was startled, touched his nose, and said, "That's right, I saw it before."
Sun Min wanted to borrow the tape from Yan Ruxu, so Xi Yuanzheng volunteered to come. In fact, there is nothing that cannot be said, but Sun Min has always asked to hide the relationship between the two of them in front of acquaintances. If I want to borrow it, I just want to sell it in front of her."
Yan Ruxu nodded, and was about to say something when Kangkang, who was hugging her thigh, yawned suddenly.
Kang Congxin said: "You and Kangkang go to sleep for a while, I will call you at 2 o'clock, and we will go to the military compound together."
Yan Ruxu nodded, although she just sipped a little wine, but such a little wine made her dizzy, and she started to feel hot from the back of her neck.
She took Kangkang to the bedroom, walked out two steps and then stopped, and said to Kang Congxin with a smile: "I just saw a person on Liang Xiaobing's gift list who gave a gift of 100 yuan, and that person's name is Kang Yuanzheng." , Do you think it's a coincidence?" After finishing speaking, she entered the room and closed the door.
Kang Congxin looked at Xi Yuanzheng, and responded, "It's really a coincidence. With 100 yuan, it must be a very close relationship. I don't know if Liang Xiaobing's husband knows and will curiously ask who this person is. Knowing that this person is my wife's previous object, I don't know if there will be any misunderstanding."
Xi Yuanzheng is not a fool, so he naturally understood that both of them had guessed that Kang Yuanzheng was him, and he didn't care to think so much about calling Yuanzheng, why he could guess it was him, and hurriedly explained: "I really didn't The other meaning is that I felt sorry for Liang Xiaobing at the beginning. It was only after I was with Sun Min that I realized what it was like to truly care about someone. I treated Liang Xiaobing too badly, and I especially disrespected her. I was taken care of in the hospital for several days. But with our relationship, there is no need for a formal apology when we meet. I just thought that I would secretly give her a big gift when she got married. I didn’t consider it comprehensively enough, and I didn’t expect to give her a big gift because of it. Liang Xiaobing brought unnecessary trouble."
He paused, then asked hesitantly: "How about I ask Liang Xiaobing's date and explain to him?"
Kang Congxin looked at him and said, "Don't worry, the more you paint, the darker it becomes. That's it. Liang Xiaobing is a smart person, and he will know how to deal with it."
Xi Yuanzheng was complacent at first, but after giving out the 100 yuan, he felt more at ease, but now, he has a new burden. Fortunately, he is a person who is good at explaining himself, so he thought for a while and said: "Forget it, if that man really thinks that this matter is awkward with Liang Xiaobing, I will try my best to let him know that Liang Xiaobing is not easy to bully!"
Kang Congxin glanced at him and wanted to say: If you really did that, it will be more solid that you will never forget your old love for Liang Xiaobing, but think about it, this is still a matter of nothing, so there is no need to argue with Xi Yuanzheng here. Said: "Your good intentions are good intentions, but be careful not to cause trouble to Liang Xiaobing."
Xi Yuanzheng nodded, suddenly remembered something, stood up quickly, walked to the door of the master bedroom, knocked on the door, and shouted inside: "Sister-in-law, don't tell Sun Min about this today, I'm afraid she will misunderstand .”
Kang Congxin grabbed him from behind, pulled him all the way to the door, opened the door, and pushed him out: "Your sister-in-law is not as unreliable as you, go back to your house."
Kang closed the door again, and Yan Ruxu walked out of the bedroom, yawning as he walked.
"Woke you up?"
Yan Ruxu wiped away the tears from the yawn, and said: "I was just about to fall asleep when I was in a daze, but he woke me up. Fortunately, Kangkang slept soundly."
The feeling of being woken up when he was about to fall asleep was very uncomfortable. Kang went over to embrace Yan Ruxu again, and became even more dissatisfied with Xi Yuanzheng, "This Xi Yuanzheng, don't let him in the house from now on!"
Yan Ruxu put his arms around Kang Congxin's waist, lazily rubbed against his chest, expressing his agreement, then threw off the slippers, stepped on Kang Congxin's feet, and put his whole body weight on him, and he led him back to the bedroom .
In the afternoon, the family of three returned to the military compound.
The two Chinese toon trees transplanted by Kang Qiangjun last year survived. After a year of rooting and growth, they finally sprouted new shoots today. The new shoots were much later than the old trees in the first year, and they can only eat once. .
But this is the first year to eat the toon sprouts from our family. Except for Kang Yuheng who can't accept the taste of toon, all the family members think it is delicious, especially the three children.
Made tofu mixed with Chinese toon, egg spread with Chinese toon, and fried toon fish. The children like to eat toon fish. They secretly ate it while frying it. Before it was served, the toon fish was eaten by the children. They don't even want to eat meat.
The staple food for dinner is dumplings stuffed with shepherd's purse. They were dug nearby by Bai Fengmei and some wild vegetables. Although they have a slightly astringent taste unique to wild vegetables and are relatively alkaline, they are still quite delicious.
Most wild vegetables need to be boiled in boiling water to remove wild vegetable alkali or slight toxicity. If wild vegetables want to be delicious, they must be more oily, and it is best to stew them with meat. The chef at home is from the countryside in the suburbs of Beijing. He knows what and how to eat the wild vegetables around here. The wild vegetables at home can be eaten from around Qingming to July and August.
