MTL - Go Back To 1980 and Enjoy It-Chapter 97 Send to the ancestors
Chapter 97 Farewell to the Ancestor
The next day.
After breakfast, Deng Shirong’s family began to kill pigs.
The reason why we started killing pigs so early is because this afternoon we have to deliver pork, chickens, ducks, candies, biscuits, wine, rice and other things to the woman’s family. In the parlance here in Bobai County, it is called “sending to the ancestors”. It means giving something to the woman to worship her ancestors.
After lunch, Deng Shirong rode to Poxin Village to deliver things to the woman’s family.
This time, Deng Shirong also made a big move.
A big pig, leaving only the offal and pork belly, and sending the rest to the woman’s family.
Now he brought twelve chickens and ducks with him. Although he couldn't see what was in the rooster tied to the back of the bicycle, everyone in Poxin Village knew that Zhang Zhenfa, the most beautiful girl in the village, was going to get married tomorrow. Today, the groom's family is going to "send Feng Zu" over, so the moment they saw Deng Shirong riding his bicycle, the villagers knew that he was probably the one who came to "send Feng Zu" to Zhang Zhen's fortune.
In this regard, Zhang Zhenfa is actually relieved, because after several contacts, he knows the character of Deng Shirong, the future in-law, and knows that the other party will never make any mistakes in this kind of matter.
After all, the roads in this era are really difficult to describe. Not only are they curved and uneven, but they also have steep uphill and downhill slopes. It must be very strenuous to carry so many things uphill.
The full name of Zhongji is a medium-sized tractor trailer. This is a 4-wheel trailer with a load capacity of 3-5 tons. There are more than 400 vehicles in the county. It is one of the most important means of transportation in this era.
In addition, he also sent six chickens and six ducks to the woman's family, which means six or six good fortunes.
The father and son worked all morning to build the temporary stove.
So, after leaving Naye Village, Deng Shirong rode his bicycle to a deserted place and directly put all the things into his system space, including the living chickens and ducks.
The reason why Deng Shirong's family didn't need to build a temporary stove was because his old house had not yet been demolished, and the stove built in the new house was relatively large. If both sides started working at the same time, they would be busy without having to build a temporary stove. .
Originally, when a man and a woman got married, the man would give the woman "ancestor gifts". The woman had specific requirements. However, as Deng Shirong was the man's parent and matchmaker, there were many things that Zhang Zhenfa couldn't talk to him about, so he simply let him see for himself. Done.
Therefore, seeing that his daughter is getting married tomorrow, Zhang Zhenfa has prepared various vegetarian dishes in advance, but he has not prepared any meat dishes at all. He plans to leave them all to the groom. He believes that Uncle Jiu's in-laws will not let him Disappointed.
In contrast, this afternoon’s meal is a meal where you can really sit down and drink and chat with relatives and friends without being in a hurry.
As for the wine, rice, candies and biscuits, not to mention, they are all made according to the highest standards.
When holding weddings and weddings in rural areas, a temporary stove is usually built. Otherwise, the stove that is used for cooking at home will definitely be too busy. It is necessary to build a temporary stove and start work in several places at the same time. Prepare the required food and drinks within the specified time.
So, Deng Shirong’s bicycle became like this. The horizontal bar in front had two cages tied to the left and right sides, with six chickens on one side and six ducks on the other. There is a corn radish tied to the back seat of the bicycle. Under the corn radish is pork. A layer of oil paper is laid on top of the pork, and food such as wine, rice, candies and biscuits are placed on it.
With such a full load, it was difficult for Deng Shirong to ride the bike.
After a simple lunch, the uncles, aunts, girls, and wives in the village spontaneously came over to help with the work.
In order to verify their guesses, the idle villagers all followed Zhang Zhenfa's family. …
The polite words from both parties were ignored. After burning a few tubes of cigarettes, Deng Shirong said to Zhang Zhenfa: "My dear, since your village is far away from our village, walking is really time-consuming, so I hired a medium-sized truck tomorrow." Come over to pick up the bride, so you don’t have to rush so much, and it’s okay to go out after ten o’clock.”
As expected, at about 1:30 in the afternoon, Uncle Jiu, an in-law, came to their family on a bicycle to "send tribute to their ancestors"!
After seeing clearly what Uncle Jiu sent over, even Zhang Zhenfa, who was mentally prepared, couldn't help but be shocked. Six chickens, six ducks and hundreds of kilograms of pork. This was really too generous!
You know, in this era, the man's family usually gave the woman's family thirty or fifty kilograms of pork plus two chickens, or two ducks if they were more generous. For someone as generous as Deng Shirong, it's really unreasonable. Rare.
So, the wedding reception tomorrow morning will actually be quite hasty.
When Deng Shirong came to Zhang Xiuping's house before, he brought more than ten kilograms of meat through the village, which already caused a small sensation in the village.
More than an hour later, seeing Poxin Village ahead, Deng Shirong found a deserted place, put his things in the car and restored them to their original state, then rode into Poxin Village and rushed towards Zhang Xiuping's house.
After putting things into the space, it will be easier to ride again.
As for whether his system space can accept living people, it is not yet clear. Deng Shirong does not dare to do such an experiment. If something goes wrong, it will be a human life. He will definitely not do this unless it is a last resort. Kind of trying.
This morning, after Zhang Zhenfa had breakfast, he was full of energy and took his eldest son and second son to build a temporary stove on the left side of the door.
And that corn lettuce is probably filled with pork, candies and biscuits!
Although Zhang Zhenfa's daughter will not get married until tomorrow, according to the customs of most communes in Bobai, no matter which family marries a daughter-in-law, they must ensure that the bride returns to the groom's house before 12 noon, if his daughter is not far away from marrying , then you can go out later. But his daughter is going to marry in the commune next door. The two places are more than 20 kilometers apart. In this era where everyone walks on foot, his daughter doesn’t even know how early she has to leave her house to get to her husband’s house before twelve o’clock. !
Originally, he thought that his system space could not accommodate living creatures, but before he found a chance to try it out, he found that living creatures could also be accommodated, and the time inside was completely still. What it was like when it went in, it will be like when it comes out.
Hearing this, Zhang Zhenfa repeatedly praised: "My dear, you are so thoughtful. I was still having a headache just now. At what time will the banquet be held tomorrow? What time will my sister A Ping go out!"
Deng Shirong is destined to be quite busy today. After talking to Zhang Zhenfa about the business, he chatted for a few minutes, said hello, and then hurriedly rode away.
Haha, thank you all for your strong support again. We have once again advanced from 365 to 331 in the monthly voting list, directly surpassing 34 books, which is really awesome. Comparing the new book list, we have moved from the previous 12th place to the 11th place, and we are only 2 votes away from the 10th place. Gentlemen, there is a chrysanthemum so close in front of us, why don’t we poke it?
