    Amidst the sound of firecrackers and suonas, Shen Yangmei slowly walked into Zhuangzi. Zhuangzi was not big, with about twenty households at most.  It seemed like it was a rare happy event in the village, everyone was celebrating it like a festival.  I met several villagers on the road. Not only were they wearing eye-catching clothes, but they also had deep smiles on their faces.

    No need to ask, just follow the sound of firecrackers and suona and turn a corner to find the place.  It seemed that the team that went to pick up the bride had not returned yet. A large group of children gathered in front of the groom's house, playing and laughing. The loudspeaker at the door was playing festive music at the top of his lungs. There were several young people standing there.  On the roof of the gate, people were smoking and talking and laughing. From time to time, they took out firecrackers from their pockets, lit them with cigarette butts in their hands, and threw them into the air.

    At this moment, Fan Qirong glanced out from the door with half of her pretty face, and happened to see Shen Yangmei. She immediately ran towards him overjoyed. Shen Yangmei naturally smiled and opened his hands.  However, Fan Qirong stopped a few steps away from his body and glanced at him with a smile.  Xu Manli also followed Fan Qirong and walked out from behind the door.

    "Why did you come just now? The wedding is about to start and you almost missed the most exciting and lively moment?" Fan Qirong complained with a smile.

    Shen Yangmei smiled wryly and shook his head, saying: "Both Lao Wang and I didn't know the way, so we took the wrong path, but luckily we were not late"

    Just as he was talking, Shen Yangmei felt something fly towards his direction and land at his feet. Before he could react, there was a "pop" sound at his feet.  Shen Yangmei subconsciously looked up and saw several young people standing on the roof of the gate looking at the three of them with "evil smiles" on their faces.

    When Fan Qirong and Xu Manli also figured out what happened and turned their heads to look over, the young people smiled and lit the firecrackers in their hands and threw them in the direction of the three of them.  There was a constant "pop" sound at the feet.

    Shen Yangmei also understood that those young people did not have any bad intentions, they were just jealous that he was staying with the two beauties Fan Qirong and Xu Manli, and they were chatting and laughing and joking with them.  Shen Yangmei immediately took Fan Qirong and Xu Manli's hands and dragged them towards the back of the house.  Unexpectedly, just after turning the corner, I almost collided with several people walking towards me.

    The three of them stopped in a hurry. Fan Qirong looked at a stout middle-aged man among the people opposite and shouted "Uncle"!

    The stout middle-aged man glanced at the three of them, and finally showed a smile on his face. He nodded slightly and said: "Xiao Rong, these two are your friends in the city. Treat them well."  They." Fan Qirong smiled and nodded.

    "This little girl is the child from your sister's family who won a grand prize for singing?" A fat-headed and big-eared man standing next to Uncle Fan Qirong said slowly, sniffing his lees-stained nose.

    "Yes, it's her, isn't it? Mayor Li, have you heard of Xiaorong's name?" Fan Qirong's uncle said hurriedly.

    "Well, when I went to the county for a meeting some time ago, I met Mayor Deng of Qingshan Town, and I heard him mention this female doll." Mayor Li blinked and looked up and down Fan Qirong's face.  After a while, he looked at Xu Manli and Shen Yangmei again.

    Li Deshun had heard of Fan Qirong's name. Not only had he heard of Fan Qirong's name, Li Deshun also heard that Fan Qirong seemed to have an entangled relationship with Secretary Shen Yangmei, who had just become the deputy secretary of the county party committee, and that Fan Qirong could win the gold medal in that song competition.  Shen, Secretary of the County Party Committee, made great efforts to fight for her brother to become a working policeman from a gangster in society.  If Liu Dahua didn't have such a relationship, how could he condescend to attend Liu Dahua's son's wedding.  I didn't expect to meet today's rightful owner right after I arrived. Looking at Fan Qirong's graceful appearance, it's no wonder that Secretary Shen was fascinated by her.

    Who is Secretary Shen? He is a Wenqu star from the sky. He became the deputy secretary of the county party committee at the age of twenty-three. He can at least be a mayor or governor in the future, right?  I went to the county to attend a meeting some time ago. Secretary Shen lost his temper on the stage. Lei Dapeng, secretary of the township party committee, was so awesome that he didn't even dare to raise his head.  But such a powerful Secretary Shen is still a hero and a beauty!

    "Old Liu, who is this young man?" Li Deshun raised his finger and pointed at Shen Yang and asked.  Since Fan Qirong has such a relationship with Secretary Shen, how can she be so close to another man, especially when they are flirting with each other? How is this inappropriate?

    "Well!" Liu Dahua was also stunned, and then asked, "Xiao Rong, is this young man your friend?"

    "Yes, he is a friend of mine?" Fan Qirong thought that Chief Li recognized Shen Yangmei, but from Li XiangLooking at Shen Yangmei's disgusted eyes, she rejected her idea.

    "Xiao Rong, your uncle and I are almost brothers. I'll ask you to be older and call you niece, right?" Li Deshun said with a smile.

    "It should, it should" Liu Dahua next to him naturally said with a smile after hearing Li Deshun's words.

    "Where's Xiao Rong, you're not too young now. There are some things you should pay more attention to. How can you just mess around and get entangled with some random people? Do you think this is right?" Li Deshun took it.  He stared at Shen Yang's brows and said in a sinister manner.

    Li Deshun's words immediately made Shen Yangmei and the others laugh. Shen Yangmei suddenly felt that this fat and big-eared man was so interesting. He actually cared about his personal affairs and didn't know that the real owner was standing in front of him.

    "Laughing, what are you laughing at" Liu Dahua looked at Li Deshun's face and turned into the color of pig liver, and immediately scolded him, but before he finished speaking, there was a loud "bang" that scared him.

    Fan Qirong and Xu Manli also hurriedly covered their ears, followed by another loud "bang".  Shen Yangmei immediately grabbed the hands of Fan Qirong and Xu Manli, and said with a smile: "Let's go, let's go quickly, enter the village with one shot, open the way with two shots, and set off firecrackers at the door. The bride is entering the village."

    The three of them ignored Liu Dahua and Li Deshun, whose faces were gloomy and almost dripping with water, and ran toward the entrance of the village with smiles.

    From a distance, I heard a hoarse voice, "The suona doesn't sound, the team doesn't come on stage, the suona doesn't sound high, the two of them can't sing well Junior students, start playing!"

    With a blow, a high-pitched, exciting, sharp sound like metal stabbing went straight into the clouds. Shen Yangmei's spirit was so stimulated that he shivered, making people's hearts lift.  Fan Qirong paused at her feet and murmured in disbelief, "This this this pitch has reached the high key of B, right?" She kept mentioning it again and again, and the pitch turned a corner at the highest point, right at the top.  The highest tune is surrounded by twists and turns, and the sound is like a flock of birds chirping, like a hearty laugh, and it stirs up people's hearts.

    Shen Yangmei and the others stood on the side of the road looking at the young man playing the suona who was stealing the limelight. His eyes were bulging and his cheeks were puffed up. They were almost using up their energy.  The suona requires more energy than any other musical instrument. Don't look down on the inconspicuous minor tunes. It only takes three to five years to play "Carrying the Sedan" into tune.  That is to say, the person playing the suona today is a young man. Perhaps it was his first time out on the job and he worked hard. Someone with more experience and older would definitely not work so hard.

    When the tune reaches its peak, the young man playing the suona pauses, raises his head, and everyone turns around. This is the signal for everyone to start the gong.  As he turned around, various musical instruments such as drums, hanging boards, big gongs, big hairpins, small hairpins, horse gongs, and gou gou suddenly started to sound, but it was the song "Carrying the Sedan Chair", which was played and played away.

    When the young man playing the suona passed by the crowd watching the fun, he would make faces and wink at the young wives and eldest girls in the crowd from time to time, then he would puff his cheeks and lead the music in a cheerful and exciting tune.  He squatted down and walked with his legs crouched, and his arms trembled while playing, like an overwhelmed fat duck, which aroused everyone's laughter and was more eye-catching than a newlywed couple.

    After the band, there is the groom leading the horse, the bride wearing a red hijab riding on the horse, and behind the horse are the family members who are delivering the dowry.  Not far from the door of the groom's house, there were already bright red "Happy" words posted on the door, bright red paper-cuts of mandarin ducks playing in the water hung on the windows, and bright red firecrackers lined up in two rows. With the tune of the suona, the welcoming procession got closer and closer.  As soon as he came into sight, the sound of crackling firecrackers could be heard non-stop, and little kids were covering their ears and picking up firecrackers running back and forth. On the village roads on both sides, there were pointing girls, young wives, old ladies, and old ladies from time to time.  You squeeze me, I squeeze you and laugh, but the old men and young people gathered in front of the groom's family are preparing for battle. The sound of the suona stops, the bride dismounts, and all of a sudden there is a rush of coaxing.

    According to the custom in the countryside here in Jialiang County, the bride dismounts from her horse and passes through three passes, each pass being more difficult than the last. The first pass is when the groom carries the bride into the new house. The bride¡¯s relatives squeeze in, and the groom¡¯s relatives block her.  Not giving in is like fighting, but the groom is holding the bride and is being pushed around. The young men of his generation are not satisfied with it, so they force the bride to ride on the groom's neck, with the red skirt covered.  Eyes, pull the groom around a few times, please, no peeking, you can find your own sense of direction.

    Someone was smiling and asked the groom, who was covered by his skirt: Don¡¯t put your head in there, it¡¯s not yet time.  Others grabbed the bride's legs and curled them up on the groom's head, shouting: "Clamp it tighter. The tighter the clamps, the more comfortable it will be for him."

    The young people laughed heartily, the toothless old lady and the old man laughed heartily, and the wrinkles on their faces gathered together; the hairless little kid was so happy that he got into the cracks to look at the appearance of the new wife; he tossed the new daughter-in-law.The bride and groom were so happy that they laughed out loud at the embarrassing appearance of the bride.
