Chapter 405 I almost thought I went to the wrong door
"Who are we going to meet?" The old man was a little nervous while sitting in the car.
"You will know when you arrive." Xiao Jinbao pretended to be mysterious and said with a smile.
As he drove all the way, the car soon arrived outside the Wu family gate. Xiao Jinbao jumped out of the car and looked up at his newly decorated house. He almost thought he had walked the wrong door.
Not only did the big white walls be painted, but the door was painted once with bright red paint. Couplets, lanterns and big happy characters made the whole house red and full of a festive atmosphere.
It looks more lively than the New Year.
"It seems that this family is going to have a wedding." The old man stood behind the car and said with some emotion.
Thinking about his daughter's age is also at the right age for marriage, I don't know how she is doing in her hometown alone now. When I think of her daughter, the old man feels very guilty.
When I left home with an impulse because of my heartbreak, I wanted to go back, but when I encountered various difficulties, I walked for many years and was still far away from home.
"Old man, you guessed it right. Old Wu's youngest son is going to get married today."
A villager walked from behind and introduced him enthusiastically. He turned to see Xiao Jinbao and said happily: "Hey, isn't this Xiao Jinbao? When did you come back?"
"Uncle Wu, I just came back. Are you carrying so many dishes to sell?" Xiao Jinbao turned around and asked curiously when he heard this.
"If you don't sell it, you're going to have a wedding ceremony. Everyone in the village has come to help. If you eat more people, you'll be quick. I'm thinking of sending some more. Come in quickly. Your milk is still talking about it today, but you won't come back." Uncle Wu said as he entered the house.
In the countryside, no matter who does the business, the people in the whole village will come to help two or three days in advance. Women will help wash vegetables and cut vegetables, and prepare the banquet on the day of the banquet.
The men helped to carry firewood and boil water, kill chickens and fish, etc.
In short, everyone has to help with all the big and small things, but the owner doesn’t have to do anything, just do it and treats the guests.
Because there are too many people helping, there will be several tables for each meal. The villagers are afraid that the owner’s home will not have enough vegetables and that if they grow a lot of vegetables at home, they will take the initiative to recite some things like Uncle Wu.
This kind of mutual help is a tradition of many years. Everyone is respectful. If you go out and help, the next time you have something to do at home, others will come to help you.
So no matter which family has something to do, everyone is very enthusiastic, and the whole village will be as happy as the festival.
"Thank you, Uncle Wu, I'm here to help you." Xiao Jinbao thanked Uncle Wu very politely.
"Xiao Jinbao, I'll go back and put my luggage first." Seeing people coming and going at the gate of the Wu family, Lin Jiayou ordered the driver to drive the car away quickly.
"Brother Jiayou, you go back with me and have a meal before leaving, and there is also a driver." Xiao Jinbao felt a little sad when he had to bother Jiayou and the driver every time.
"I have something to do when I go back. Come here later. I'll give you a surprise when the time comes." Lin Jiayou said, waved his hand and turned around and left quickly. It seemed that he was busy with something.
"Little girl, is this your home?" After watching for a long time, the old man finally understood what was going on.
"Yes." Xiao Jinbao nodded vigorously and stepped forward to support the old man's hand, "Grandpa, let's go in."
"Are you going to take me to your family? Yes, you saved my life. I should come to your family to thank you personally, thank them for teaching you such a sensible and cute child." The old man said to himself.
Before Xiao Jinbao could speak, he heard the excited voices of Mrs. Wu and her brothers from the yard.
"Where is Xiao Jinbao?"
"Sister, are you back? We all miss you to death."
Then a large group of people rushed out and surrounded Xiao Jinbao.
"Child, you're back." After not seeing each other for a while, the old lady was in tears.
"I've lost weight and become dark. I've suffered a lot during this period, right?" Yang Chunlan also held her tears and gently stroked her daughter's head, with a feeling of pain on her face.
"Sister, why did you come back? We went to the village entrance every day and didn't wait for you."
"That's right, if you don't come back, the fifth uncle's wife will be married."
"Sister, grandma bought a lot of sugar. I secretly hid a lot for you and I will give it to you for food."
The boys came up and rushed to talk to Xiao Jinbao.
"I miss you all, I'll be back as soon as today ends." Seeing the brothers again and listening to their noisy voices, Xiao Jinbao felt very kind.
