Customs, as the name suggests, are customs and habits. The customs of the common people are also constantly developing and changing.
In the northeastern part of Jiangxi, it is customary to eat mochi in the morning for marriages and daughters, weddings and funerals.
?Before the 1990s, people who organized weddings would soak the glutinous rice in the first night according to the number of guests.
The next day, before dawn, the owner is going to steam the glutinous rice.
It was just dawn, and the young and strong relatives and friends who had been notified in advance began to play mochi.
It usually takes more than five or six people to beat the mochi. The steamed glutinous rice is poured into the stone mortar. The skilled person is responsible for pulling and turning the mochi. , Take turns swinging the big wooden hammer, you hit me, hit me.
When a strong man hits mochi, it makes a sound of "tong, tong", and hits the bottom one by one; when it hits the face poorly, the sound of hitting is "pa, pa".
Beating mochi is hard work. People who eat mochi can withstand hunger and can do hard work.
Today's young people don't do hard work, and it doesn't matter whether they eat mochi or not.
More and more people are going to college, and many people are unwilling to do the hard work of writing and writing, and let the computer do it.
I used to say that reading is inseparable from writing. Times have changed, and now it doesn't matter if you write or not.
Out of ten college students, almost nine out of eight write Chinese characters that are similar to those of foreigners. Note that this foreigner cannot be a Chinese major. If someone majors in Chinese, you are ashamed to compare yourself with them, because you will be afraid of embarrassment yourself.
In the 1980s, people talked about playing mochi and eating mochi; after the 1990s, fewer and fewer people went to have weddings for breakfast, and less and less people were eating mochi.
After the 21st century, you can still eat mochi in the morning when you eat wedding wine, but the mochi you eat is no longer manually beaten, but machine-processed, and you basically don¡¯t see beaten mochi.
After Liu Xiaoping ate mochi, his head would be clearer, so he hurried home to read, the old man is also on vacation today.
After Li Xiang ate mochi, he would compete with himself and think about things that others thought were weird and had nothing to do with us.
Gan Xinjian became stronger after eating mochi. He argued with Ye Jianhua, asked the guests who ate sesame seeds to comment, and when he saw Ye Jianhua's grandfather coming, he wanted to talk again.
The old man understood what Gan Xinjian meant, and before Gan Xinjian could speak, he greeted Li Xiang first. "Qiang Zai, you are a bit older than Hua Yu, you need to persuade Hua Yu."
Before the old man's words fell to the ground, Gan Xinjian snatched them away, "I am a few days older than Li Xiang."
"That's good. Let's talk about it together. Don't be so sad. When you arrive at the woman's house, others will think that he is rude and ignorant." The old man looked at Li Xiang, "You have to take care of him a little more. No one loved him when he was young. , I just try to get used to him, so he always feels more pitiful and unfair than others, he doesn't know the hardships of others."
Seeing the old man with gray hair and wanting to talk, Li Xiang's tears almost came out of his eyes: suffering, is there anyone more bitter than the old man? Lost his wife and lost his son, his daughter-in-law remarried, his grandfather and grandson depended on each other, he was a grandfather, since Ye Jianhua was three years old, he wanted to be both a father and a mother, who can understand the bitterness?
"We are also ignorant. Don't worry, it's fine." Li Xiangcheng said sincerely.
"Wait for you to go. If the woman's family makes some temporary requests, you should help to talk about it. Don't come too late. The guests will not start until you come." The old man explained.
Li Xiang nodded in agreement. When Li Xiang was less than forty years old, he was hailed as the chairman of the "uncle and uncle" association by the leaders of his work unit. One can imagine how many times he has participated in the wedding party.
At that time, it was the first time he participated in a serious wedding, and it was the first time he became one of the representatives of the man's wedding ceremony. He didn't know anything about it, but he had to agree to the old man's request and try his best.
"Did you see the introducer coming?" The old man was a little anxious.
Li Xiang hurriedly comforted the old man, "After I came, I didn't see her coming. She told me yesterday that she would come here earlier, don't worry. I'll go outside and have a look." Li Xiang wondered, why did Hong Jianglan contradict her promise? ?
At 10:30, Hong Jianglan hadn't come yet, so Li Xiang said to Ye Jianhua, "Would you like to go to her house to have a look?"
"No. Didn't she see that I'm annoying? Leave her alone, let's get ready to leave. Don't say she won't come, even if Huang Cailian doesn't come, I don't care." Ye Jianhua's face was still gloomy, not good-looking, but basically he was calm . It's just a bit bitter in the voice.
Li Xiang was secretly anxious, and said in his heart, Hong Jianglan, Hong Jianglan, you are not so heartless, are you? A strong woman who is exquisite in every aspect, can't be confused for a while, right?
Li Xiang absolutely believed Ye Jianhua's truth that he didn't care if Huang Cailian came or not. However, Li Xiang knew that if Hong Jianglan didn't come, Ye Jianhua would definitely not let it go.
Seeing that it was almost eleven o'clock, Ye Jianhua's grandfather said, "Let's go, we will be rude if we go late, and we will leave the conversation to the woman. Go early and return early."
The introducer did not come, and there were four people who went to the bride's house, Ye Jianhua, Ye Jianhua's uncle-uncle, Ye Jianhua's uncle-uncle, and Li Xiang.
Ye Jianhua's uncle borrowed a small van, which was very old, and parked it at the entrance of the alley.
Li Xiang and the others were about to get in the car when Hong Jianglan came. She came in a jeep. Li Xiang asked Ye Jianhua, "Is this his husband's car?"
Li Xiang actually asked, is that the driver? If it was that driver, Hong Jianglan would have gone too far and had no shame.
"No, his husband's car is relatively old." Ye Jianhua's voice was a little salty.
"It's late, I kept everyone waiting, I'll borrow a car to pick up my new wife, let's go, Li Xiang, let's take this car with the groom. Let them sit in the back car." Hong Jianglan said to her uncle and uncle Said, "Uncle, Uncle, you have worked hard. Don't be surprised."
? Seeing that the introducer came and brought the wedding car, who would be offended? It's too late to be happy.
Hong Jianglan insisted that Ye Jianhua take the front co-pilot seat, but Ye Jianhua didn't want to, she said, you are the groom's officer, you can't shrink your head. I sat in the back with Li Xiang. hurry up.
Ye Jianhua muttered, "The front and back of the car are not the same, and there are not many things."
Li Xiang could tell that Ye Jianhua's words were a bit sour. Not much, yes, but there must be something missing. What is missing? No, it's still too much, a little more distance between the two of them.
The wedding planning of Ye Jianhua's family was really simple. In addition to Ye Jianhua's uncertain weather, it seemed quite deserted, but Huang Cailian's family was quite lively.
It is said that after Huang Cailian's brother proposed Uncle Ye Jianhua's idea, there was no objection at first.
When it came time to marry her daughter, the mother firmly disagreed. She said that a woman's marriage is a major event in her life. Don't say that the man looks down on the deserted ones, and neighbors will also gossip. My daughter is the flesh that fell from my body. You don't feel sad, but I feel heartbroken. The man does not pay, we pay ourselves.
Just as the car stopped, before Li Xiang and the others got out of the car, the enthusiastic firecrackers crackled.
As soon as the sound of firecrackers stopped, the smoke was still permeating, and laughter and laughter rushed to our faces.
Those who handed out cigarettes, those who offered tea, those who served snacks, and the neighbors brought snacks, one after another. To use an idiom to describe it, it is "overwhelmed".
Smoking, drinking tea, eating snacks, and then eating, drinking, and punching are also one after another.
As long as you stop talking, someone will immediately persuade you, "Come, come, eat."
Li Xiang was not hungry, but he couldn't stand the other party's kindness, so he had to eat slowly, not letting go of the chopsticks, chewing slowly with his mouth, and looking around with his eyes. He hoped to be able to see the woman who claimed to be "Snowborn Plum Bone".
Li Xiang's hope has nothing to do with his intentions, and it has nothing to do with Fengyue, it's just the normal heart of ordinary people. Although, the sunflower seeds in the movie theater are still there, and they are still vivid in my memory.
Li Xiang's hope is really related to his boredom. He can't just keep eating, he can't just look at the food in the bowl stupidly.
"Looking for her thousands of Baidu"? No. Li Xiang just glanced casually. However, man is really a strange advanced animal. The more you don't see it, hehe, the more you want to see it.
What is experience? Experience is a person's personal experience, through these experiences, the understanding of people, things, things, and the knowledge gained from them.
Li Xiang was young, so he didn't know that at this time, the bride's best friend, her main task was to accompany the bride, just like he accompanied the groom.
The roles of bridesmaid and best man are basically the same.
Best man, Li Xiang didn't expect to do it once for no reason. Hehe, it is said that the qualifications of a best man must be about the same age, generous and generous, with a warm heart, willing to do anything for the groom, that is, he must be able to withstand the test of "alcohol", be a good personal bodyguard, and stand up to him. You have to use both soft and hard methods of the guests, as well as kindness and power, to desperately guard the embarrassing and romantic affairs of the buddy.
Those conditions and requirements were gradually perfected later. In the 1980s, one of the most important tasks of the best man was to bargain with the bride's family on behalf of the groom. Today's young people can't think of it. There are some things that the bridegroom cannot say; some things that uncles and uncles say will make people feel insincere.
Hehe, Li Xiang didn't think so much at that time, nor could he think so much. I just think it's fun, it's cool to be such a guest, and it's very comfortable to be treated warmly by others.
He didn't know that many people didn't like, or didn't want to be such a guest.
What made Li Xiang blame himself for not being enlightened was that when he arrived at the house of the bride Huang Cailian, the only person he wanted to see, he didn't even know that her task was to be a bridesmaid, just like him.
