January 27, the ninth day of the twelfth lunar month!
The second day of Fan Debiao and Liu Yunlong’s collective wedding!
According to local customs, today should be the day when the woman returns home, and it is also the time when the woman invites guests.
Uzhina's relatives got up early in the morning, packed their luggage, and prepared to leave Babaoliang Village.
Also leaving at the same time were Uzhina and Fan Debiao. Next, they will return to Bilige's hometown of Xilin Gol Ujimqin Grassland to hold a wedding with Mongolian characteristics there.
For this reason, Fan Debiao specifically asked for half a month's leave from the institute!
In comparison, Liu Yunlong's side is much simpler!
He just needs to take Li Qian back to Yunshan County today, cooperate with his father-in-law, and go through a formality.
After a simple breakfast, the two teams of newcomers and their relatives set off one after another.
After seeing off the guests at home, Zhou Yang also started to pack his luggage and prepare to set off.
Because tomorrow is the day for the meeting, and according to regulations, he must rush to Qingcheng today.
However, he could not go directly from Babaoliang Village to Qingcheng, but had to go to the county town first.
No way, who knows, today happens to be the day when Li Qian returns home, so Zhou Yang needs to go to the county town to attend the homecoming banquet of Lao Li's family before rushing to Qingcheng.
At 11 o'clock in the morning, Zhou Yang, who had packed up, rushed to the county town with Chen Beixuan to attend the homecoming banquet of Lao Li's family!
Guo Yamin, Zheng Aiguo and the rest of their entourage stayed in the village temporarily. After Wang Ping and others slaughtered the pigs, sheep and chickens sent to the Provincial Agriculture and Animal Husbandry School, they took these things with them before joining Zhou Yang and others.
At half past eleven, the two cars arrived at the county auditorium.
That's right, the homecoming banquet of Lao Li's family was held in the county town hall.
Apart from here, there is no place in the county that big that can accommodate so many people at the same time.
When Zhou Yang and others arrived at the county auditorium, they were immediately shocked by the scene in front of them.
I saw a huge auditorium filled with large round tables. At a glance, there were at least more than a hundred tables.
At this time, every table was filled with guests, and the entire auditorium was crowded with people.
But when I think about it, I feel relieved. As Lao Li is the top leader in the county, the marriage of his daughter is a grand event for the whole county.
Moreover, Lao Li has been working in Yunshan County since graduation and has never moved away. All his relatives and friends are here.
In addition, marrying a daughter is a big deal, but any urgent matter that is not life-threatening will come.
Just when Zhou Yang was looking for the location of Mr. Li Changqing, Li Changqing also saw him and came over with his wife.
"Zhou Yang, here!"
Hearing Li Changqing's voice, Zhou Yang rushed over immediately!
"Lao Li, sister-in-law, congratulations to you two on your daughter and your beloved husband!"
"Hahaha, our Qianqian and Yunlong are able to tie the knot, and we have to thank you for this. We must have a good drink today!" Li Changqing said with a smile.
"Forget it about drinking. To be honest, I have to go on a business trip later!" Zhou Yang said with a smile.
"Okay! I just heard what Yunlong said, telling me not to drink wine for you, so as not to mess up things!"
"Hahaha, Yunlong still understands me!"
"Don't stand at the door, please come inside!"
Then, under the leadership of Li Changqing, Zhou Yang and others were brought to a table at the front of the auditorium.
Seeing this position, a warm current flashed through Zhou Yang's heart.
According to local customs, the head table of a wedding banquet is very particular, and it must be either an elder in the family or the person closest to the person.
Lao Li arranged him here, which shows his position in Lao Li's mind.
At twelve o'clock, the guests had almost arrived, and the homecoming banquet began immediately.
The process was much the same as yesterday's wedding. There were not as many cumbersome ceremonies as in later generations, such as a change of mouth ceremony, a thank you to parents, a couple's confession... none of it!
As the host, Lao Li just said a few words, and Liu Yunlong and Li Qian, accompanied by their parents, began to toast the guests. It was so simple!
...........
At 12:40, Zhou Yang, who had eaten and drank enough, felt that it was almost time.
He said hello to Lao Li, and then left the homecoming banquet with Chen Beixuan. After all, there were still important things to do in the afternoon.
Lao Li also knew that he really had something to do today, so he didn't try to persuade him to stay. He just asked him to come back and be a guest at his house to make up for the meal.
After coming out of the county auditorium, under Zhou Yang's instructions, Chen Beixuan drove to the county state-owned hotel, where he, Mr. Guo and others agreed to meet.
When Zhou Yang and Chen Beixuan arrived at the entrance of the state-owned hotel, Guo Yamin, Zheng Aiguo and others were already waiting for them.
In addition to a jeep, they also drove two large Jiefang trucks.
One truck was loaded with various supplies, and the other truck was filled with armed guards.
After the two parties met, Guo Yamin and Zheng Weiguo got out of their cars and got directly into Zhou Yang's small jeep.
Afterwards, the group reorganized the gongs and drums and started singing again, and went straight to Qingcheng, the capital of Saibei Province!
On the way, Guo Yamin looked at Zhou Yang in the passenger seat, frowning slightly, as if he had something to say.
But Zheng Weiguo on the side secretly shook his head at him, indicating that he should not meddle in his own business.
Zhou Yang, who was in front of him, could clearly see the little actions of these two people "looking back and forth". Although he didn't know what was going on, based on his understanding of Mr. Guo, it must be some of his actions that made this "little steel cannon" dissatisfied. .
And with his character, Mr. Zheng can't stop him even if he wants to. Even if he doesn't say it now, he will definitely say it when he gets to Qingcheng.
Thinking of this, he immediately turned around and asked: "Mr. Guo, who has troubled you again?"
"you!"
"Uh, where do you start talking about this?" Zhou Yang asked doubtfully.
"Are the pork, mutton, and rice noodles on the truck at the back for gifts?"
"This is what you always talk about..."
"Don't say anything else first, just say yes or no?"
"Yes!" Zhou Yang said decisively.
"I heard that the person you gave gifts to is Dean Kang, who is An Bangguo's lover. I didn't expect that your kid also has a habit of giving gifts to others?" Guo Yamin frowned.
He came to Babaoliang Village relatively late and was not particularly clear about the relationship between the Provincial Agricultural and Animal Husbandry School in the village. He heard that the village was going to give gifts to the leaders of the Provincial Agricultural and Animal Husbandry School, and Zhou Yang had approved it, which made him feel shocked and a little bit confused. angry.
What made him most angry was that according to his quiet questioning of Wang Ping, he learned that this was not the first time such a thing had happened, and that Zhou Yang had personally delivered it to people every time.
And this time he saw with his own eyes that the commune members loaded 5 cleanly slaughtered large fat pigs, 5 fat and healthy one-year-old goats, 50 large roosters, 200 kilograms of eggs, and a large amount of rice, flour, grain and oil into the car. Turned a big truck.
Although he doesn't know much about the current prices on the market, he also knows that so many things are worth at least 2,000 yuan.
Such a generous gift, and the recipient is the wife of the first deputy director of the province, is already suspected of bribery!
Zhou Yang also understood why Mr. Guo was angry. This old man was the kind of stubborn donkey who couldn't see the sand in his eyes. It was understandable that he couldn't stand this kind of "camping" behavior.
But Zhou Yang himself knew that sending these things to the Provincial Agriculture and Animal Husbandry School was by no means an ordinary bribe.
Thinking of this, Zhou Yang looked at Mr. Guo with a smile, and then said: "You have misunderstood. Those things in the car are not all for Dean Kang, but for all the teachers of the Provincial Agriculture and Animal Husbandry School. They are our eight treasures." Liangcun's gratitude to them has nothing to do with flattery and bribery!"
"It's really not because she is Deputy Director An's wife..."
"no!"
Then Zhou Yang said again: "While I have nothing to do, let me tell you two the story between our Babaoliang Village and the Provincial Agriculture and Animal Husbandry School!"
Afterwards, Zhou Yang explained in detail what happened between Babaoliang Village and the Provincial Agriculture and Animal Husbandry School...
