Then, Xu Lingjun and Lao Li started pulling at the leg of lamb.
When Lao Guo saw this scene, he walked over in three steps at a time.
"Lingjun, take it."
"It's everyone's wish. This is how we all drink wedding wine here."
"By the way, there is also the matter of being a follower, so you can't refuse."
Lao Guo explained with a smile: "We have a tradition here. When someone gets married, every family will contribute a little money."
“Even if no one comes, the money will come.”
"Of course, what I said is true. Each family will give 30 to 50 cents."
The share money is really used to help newlyweds at this time. It has not reached the level of comparison. Each family contributes 30 to 50 cents, which is not too much.
But if you gather the sand into a tower, if hundreds of households add up, they will have dozens of dollars.
A few dozen yuan is not a small amount.
"Then, I'll accept it."
Xu Lingjun accepted the piece of mutton leg sheepishly. This time, he was really embarrassed.
The relationship between Lao Li and him was far from close to that of Li Jie.
Therefore, from Xu Lingjun's point of view, he didn't want to accept it. A piece of lamb leg weighed three or four kilograms. After drying, it would weigh so much. Before drying, it would weigh at least seven or eight kilograms.
How much does a sheep weigh?
Just this piece of mutton leg meat, if it were taken to the market, would cost at least ten yuan.
Looking at the present, the wedding gifts given by Lao Li can definitely be ranked in the top three.
The ceremony is too heavy.
Although Xu Lingjun helped Lao Li a lot that time, Xu Lingjun considered it his duty to help him that time.
He is a veterinarian.
Treating people's cattle, horses and sheep is their job.
Moreover, he also charged a consultation fee for seeing a doctor.
"Ha ha."
Seeing Xu Lingjun accept the piece of lamb leg, Old Li smiled happily.
In Xu Lingjun's view, that time was a very common medical treatment, but in Lao Li's mind, Xu Lingjun saved his whole family that time.
If it weren't for Xu Lingjun, he, Lao Li, would be in jail now.
So, when Xu Lingjun got married this time, he gritted his teeth and gave him such a big gift.
the other side.
Li Jie did not participate in the tug-of-war. In fact, from the perspective of a bystander, he saw far more than Xu Lingjun himself saw.
Sometimes, people are easily confused by the authorities.
Xu Lingjun's current reputation is definitely much better than he imagined.
What old oil.
That's all in the past tense.
In other words, even if Xu Lingjun puts on his hat again, the villagers will not reject him, but will protect him.
Compare your heart to your heart.
Xu Lingjun's kindness to the villagers can be felt by them.
Even if there are a few people with darker thoughts, they will not affect the overall situation.
After a while, more and more people came to express their congratulations, and the small courtyard was almost filled with people, and there was almost no space to stand on.
However, most of the villagers had no intention of staying long. The man met the groom, chatted for a few words, and then left as soon as he gave away the money.
Have a meal?
There are too many people, don’t eat, don’t eat.
As Li Jie expected, Xu Lingjun's popularity has indeed improved.
There are both Xu Lingjun's personal reasons and external factors. Now, everyone in the village has made money because of the wool harvesting.
No matter what kind of animal you raise, the biggest fear is getting sick, especially infectious diseases.
And Xu Lingjun is the most skilled veterinarian around. He is popular and normal.
Just like people, no one can guarantee that the animals they raise will not get sick.
Although the sheep raised are national property, the quality of the sheep is also closely related to personal income.
After greeting all the villagers who came to congratulate him, the sky slowly darkened.
Because there were too many people, there were not enough tables in the yard. Later, four tables were placed in the yard and four tables outside the yard.
Even so, a lot of people left, otherwise there would be no room to sit down.
After the villagers sat down, the large pot of dishes in the kitchen was basically cooked. With Lao Wang's roar, bowls of hot dishes were served to the table one after another.
Mutton and pork are the two toughest dishes.
Although the portions at each table were not large, no one was gossiping.
You have meat to eat, but you still can’t shut your mouth?
Not long after the marriage started, Xu Lingjun also led Li Xiuzhi out. The two newlyweds held wine glasses and toasted table by table.
The wine is not good wine, just the kind of loose wine sold by supply and marketing cooperatives.
However, whether the wine was good or not did not affect everyone's enthusiasm at all.
Everyone had a great time drinking this wine.
Night falls.
The Xu family's courtyard has also regained its tranquility, and with the help of everyone, the banquet in the courtyard has been tidied up.
After bidding farewell to the last wave of guests, Xu Lingjun and Li Xiuzhi returned to the house.
Although Li Xiuzhi has lived here for a long time, before they got married, they slept in separate rooms.
Until yesterday, the two of them had not slept together.
They all had the same idea. The most important things should naturally be reserved for the wedding.
However, as soon as the two returned to their new house, the atmosphere in the house instantly became awkward.
Both of them are naive and have no experience in that matter.
Li Xiuzhi half lowered her head. Now she didn't know where her hands and feet were. Suddenly, from the corner of her eye, she saw a pile of tickets on the table.
Then she walked to the table with her head lowered.
"Lingjun, look at this, there are so many votes."
"I have never seen so many food stamps and cloth stamps in my life."
With that said, Li Xiuzhi picked up a few candy coupons from the stack of bills.
"Look, there are candy coupons here!"
"Well, they are all gifts from everyone."
Li Xiuzhi started talking, and Xu Lingjun stopped being stunned and walked to Xiuzhi's side with a smile.
Then, the young couple sorted out the tickets while chatting.
correct.
There is also some money.
After spending more than half an hour, the two finally took stock of the gifts.
Ling Ling always collected a lot of various bills, and they didn't calculate the specific amount. However, if it is only used by two people, save a little and use it for three to five months, and there will be no problem.
In addition, more than 100 households in Xifeng Village received a total of thirty-four yuan and seventy-five cents.
Although the money is not much, the friendship is priceless.
Xu Lingjun kept the kindness of the villagers in mind. Xiuzhi on the side also thought the same. She felt that it was really great that she could marry here.
Sister Qin Nan, Brother Gao, Secretary Wang, Brother Guo, Brother Li, etc., there are too many good people.
Thinking of this, Li Xiuzhi's eyes became moist again.
"Xiuzhi, you..."
the other side.
After the clouds and rain passed, Qin Nan lay in Li Jie's arms and said with a smile.
"Husband, what do you think Xiuzhi and Lao Xu are doing now?"
Li Jie rolled his eyes: "You little pervert, what else are they doing?"
"screw you."
Qin Nan knocked on Li Jie's chest: "You are the big pervert."
