Chapter 1151 Stepfather 62
Shen Yi hummed, "I'll prepare the liquor."
"I have two bottles here. I got them from Lao Qi."
Lao Qi is the boss of the black market and has a lot of good stuff. Although the prices are a bit expensive, no tickets are required. And as long as you have money, you can buy anything you want to eat, drink, wear and use.
Yuanchun often went in and out of the black market. After going there so many times, she got to know the black market boss, Mr. Seven.
One time, by chance, Yuanchun saw Shen Yi at Lao Qi's place, and only then did she know that Lao Qi and Shen Yi actually knew each other.
Lao Qi is the younger brother of Shen Yi’s comrade-in-arms.
His comrade-in-arms died, and his sister-in-law donated the pension and ran away, leaving behind a pair of nephews and nieces for him to raise. Lao Qi's mother could not bear the blow of her son's death, and she fell seriously ill and spent all the family's money.
The seventh brother had no father, his brother was dead, and his sister-in-law had run away. In order to support the whole family, he had to work hard to find ways to make money.
Later, he started doing black market business with a few childhood friends who were also unemployed.
Shen Yi would send the prey he hunted in the mountains to Lao Qi to sell at night.
Shen Yi said, "I'll go to Lao Qi's place tonight and get a few pounds of candy. See if you need anything else and I'll get it for you."
"We don't need anything." Yuanchun didn't want to make a big fuss, just a simple one would be enough. "This pig's offal is enough."
The next day was their wedding day.
Yuanchun got up early in the morning and began to wash and prepare wine and food for lunch.
Hongqi Village is a village with various surnames. There are more than ten surnames in the village. They are all small families. There are no big families. The Xu family is also very small, with only three families in total. They are the families of Er Laizi's cousins.
When Erlaizi was alive, his relatives cut off all contact with him, but when Erlaizi passed away, his relatives took the initiative to come to Yuanchun's house to help her bury Erlaizi.
After that, the clan members had little contact with Yuanchun.
When Yuanchun got married, she invited people to her wedding, but they were not close to her. Only one of her cousins said he would come to the wedding for the wedding banquet.
While Yuanchun was busy preparing breakfast, the Shen family arrived.
All five of them came.
Grandma Shen smiled and said, "Ah Chun, let us cook. You go back to your room and sit down. You are the bride today, so don't work. Let us do it."
"Grandma, we don't have to have a wedding, just cook a table of food, there's no need to be so particular." Yuanchun didn't want to let the elders from her husband's family work, she just stayed in the house and had nothing to do.
She left the easy work to Grandma Shen and Mother Shen, and she went to knead the dough. She planned to steam two kinds of steamed buns for everyone at noon.
"Ayi, go call the team leader and the village secretary. If you pass by my uncle's house, ask him to come over and have a chat."
"it is good."
Shen Yi put down the work in his hands, put a few handfuls of candy in his pocket, and went out.
Soon, the team leader, the village secretary, the village accountant, the old Chinese doctor from the health center came, and my great-uncle also came, but he was the only one who came.
My uncle brought six eggs, "To nourish your bodies, and wish you a long life together, and a son soon."
"Thank you, uncle. Please take a seat."
The oldest people here are my uncle and Grandpa Shen. The two old men sit on the upper seat, while Grandma Shen and the team leader sit on the lower seat, the village secretary and the village accountant sit on the east side, and Mr. and Mrs. Shen sit on the west side.
Including Shen Yi and Yuanchun, there are ten people in total, just enough for one table.
Stir-fried lung slices, pork liver with onions, pork intestines with dried peppers, shredded radish and belly, stir-fried pork heart slices, black fungus and eggs, stewed chicken with pine mushrooms, stir-fried shredded potatoes, stewed pork belly with sauerkraut, and a plate of spicy cabbage, a total of ten dishes, representing perfection.
