    Chapter 225: Incomprehensible Customs

    That afternoon, Zheng Nan stayed at Meng Yu's house. Because of Meng Yuanchao's relationship, he was regarded as a witness. At this time, of course, he wanted to learn more about the local customs and see what he, the matchmaker, should do and say tomorrow.  What.  (It only takes dankan genius 3 seconds to remember)

    Meng Yu also got busy, directing people to decorate the new house. The second floor of his villa was quite spacious, so he packed up two rooms on the east side of the second floor to temporarily serve as Meng Yishan's new house.

    Meng Yuanchao said that he owns four houses in Liyang City, so it is only natural that he should give his son Meng Yishan two houses after his son gets married.  A 200-square-meter apartment will be given to him as a new house, and the other will be given to his in-laws, who can live there at any time.

    What else could Feng Xiangzhao say? He was happy and depressed at the same time when he met such a wealthy in-law. He was happy that his daughter had a good home. At least the family didn't have to worry about food, clothing, housing and transportation. But the problem was that after his daughter got married, what did this mean?  He was going to settle down in Liyang City, which made Old Master Feng somewhat depressed. The daughter he had raised for twenty years ran away with someone like this?

    Duan Yu'e patted the old man on the shoulder and said: "Daughters always have to marry. I think Meng Yishan is still a good child. It is right to follow him. Let's not think too much. We will have our own children and grandchildren."  Blessed children and grandchildren.¡±

    Feng Xiangzhao nodded, sighed softly, and went into the room to get busy. When getting married, the woman's family is always busy with many aspects. He also called his relatives to help. Tomorrow, the man will come to propose marriage, and they must prepare in advance.  good.

    But the parties involved, Meng Yishan and Feng Lingxiu, were not in the town. They drove to Wugu Temple to seek marriage that afternoon. Of course, the two of them had to worship Buddha and Guanyin, and they also had to put up a few more pillars in the temple."  "Peace, wealth and incense", offer some incense money.

    Zheng Nan is busy decorating the new house at the mayor's house. Although Meng Yu notified his daughter, she will not be able to come back from working outside for the time being, so in a hurry, she can only try to notify her relatives and friends to come back as soon as possible.

    It was not until seven o'clock in the evening that Zheng Nan finally felt relieved. Over there, Meng Yuanchao was already inviting people to eat. What he went to tonight was a big hotel in the town. It was said to be a big hotel, but in fact it was just a small hotel.  It's just a restaurant, with the loud name "Ke Laixiang Hotel".

    People in the working group did not have this kind of treatment at night. Zheng Nan drove Meng Yuanchao's car and specially picked up Xu Mo. Of course, the two of them had to stay together, otherwise Xu Mo really didn't know what to do.

    Meng Yuanchao walked over with a smile, raised his glass and touched it with Zheng Nan: "Is this your good friend? She's so beautiful. Otherwise, let her be Lingxiu's bridesmaid?"

    Zheng Nan laughed loudly: "Come on, it's better not to do this. They will definitely prepare for the Feng family's affairs, so there's no need for Momo."

    Meng Yuanchao then gave up. He toasted one by one. Most of the people present were relatives and friends, and they all helped a lot today.  Although he has not returned to his hometown for several years, everyone is still very considerate and supportive. He understands better that it is just because he is a rich man.

    "Lao Guo, I'm very happy that you can come. I respect you!" He said with a smile.

    The two clinked glasses, then got closer and muttered for a long time, not knowing what they were talking about. It was obvious that these two old friends were very happy. After not seeing each other for several years, everyone has changed a lot.

    "Your son is getting married, congratulations!" Lao Guo said.

    Meng Yuanchao smiled: "We are all happy, we must come to have a wedding drink when the time comes!"

    On the other side, Meng Yu was also greeting his colleagues. They were all leaders of the town. There were about three tables of people. Since it was a happy event, of course everyone had to be happy. This was not a formal wedding yet. If it comes then, I'm afraid it would  There are hundreds of banquet tables.

    Halfway through dinner, Meng Yishan and Feng Lingxiu came down from the mountain. After playing for an afternoon, the two of them were obviously very tired. The excitement had passed. They had just come from Meng Yu's house and had changed.  A pair of clean clothes.

    ¡°Come, come quickly, let¡¯s eat!¡± Meng Yu greeted.

    Both of them were a little hungry. They sat at the same table and had a few bites, but also had to toast to other people. Meng Yishan didn't drink much, so he just took a small sip, which was fine.

    After having enough wine and food, everyone left with unsatisfied feelings. Meng Yu called the driver Xiao Han to take Zheng Nan and Xu Mo back to the guest house.  Meng Yu called the owner of "Ke Laixiang" over again. After careful questioning, he found out that this restaurant can open up to fifty tables at the same time.

    "There is no way, there are 100 tables, let's open two rows!" Meng Yu smiled and said helplessly.

    Early the next morning, Zheng Nan was taken away in a Mercedes-Benz. Of course, she came to Meng Yu¡¯s house and packed all the gifts she had prepared in three Mercedes-Benz cars.?, there was also a pickup truck carrying the band, and then it ran towards Feng Xianzhao's home.

    "Bah bang bang", as soon as they entered this alley, the sound of firecrackers in front of Feng Xiangzhao's door rang. At the same time, the band on the pickup truck played cheerful music. He was beaming with joy. Zheng Nan walked over with Meng Yishan and stood there.  outside the door.

    ¡°The groom¡¯s official is here to propose marriage!¡± a local old lady shouted.

    Feng Xianzhao came out wearing a Tang suit and asked coldly: "Whose groom is this?"

    Zheng Nan held a piece of yellowed aluminum paper in her hand, with the names of both men and women engraved on it, as well as their birth dates, and said: "Meng Yishan, the 18th generation eldest grandson of the Meng family, meet your father-in-law!"

    Meng Yishan was dressed neatly and had a standard groom's appearance. He was dressed decently today. Although he was proposing marriage, it was still a formal visit to his father-in-law. He stepped forward and bowed: "Uncle Feng!"

    Feng Xiangzhao nodded, stepped aside and said, "If you want to marry my daughter, you must first pass my test and move this water tank in for me!" He pointed to a porcelain water tank in front of the door.  It is more than one meter high, and there is half a tank of water inside.

    This is a local custom. The prospective son-in-law comes to the door and carries half a tank of water on his back. It means that if you want to marry a wife, you must first be half a godson to your father-in-law. Only in this way can you officially agree to your marriage proposal.

    Feng Xiangzhao watched Meng Yishan move the water tank with all his strength. He smiled knowingly, then turned to the matchmaker and said: "People from the Meng family, please come in!" Then a group of people filed in, and everyone headed towards the door.  Squeeze inside.

    The next thing is to discuss things. Zheng Nan mostly just acts as a witness. There is a respected old man in the local area who is best at this kind of marriage proposal process, so almost every household will invite this "Uncle Xu" to appear.

    Uncle Xu handed the gift book to Feng Xiangzhao, then took the birthday card from the matchmaker, handed it to Duan Yu'e, stroked his long beard, and said with a smile: "Heaven is the witness, the earth is the matchmaker, Mr. Zheng  How about being the introducer and inviting my daughter to come out?"

    Feng Xiangzhao naturally agreed. This was a normal procedure that he was very familiar with. Looking at such a scene, he couldn't help but feel warm in his heart. His daughter was finally getting married. Today, the man proposed marriage, followed by an engagement, and then chose the right time.  Auspicious day.

    Feng Lingxiu was dressed very beautifully and walked out in a festive red gauze skirt. Because of the excitement, the corners of her eyes were slightly moist. She looked at Meng Yishan and snickered.

    Zheng Nan watched from beginning to end. He was really confused and depressed. He didn't even understand what these people were doing. There were so many local customs. After a busy morning, at noon, the gongs and drums were noisy. It was finally coming to an end.  .

    At this time, Uncle Xu opened a fortune teller, then he counted with his fingers, and compared the birth dates of the male and female parties, he chose a good and auspicious day. He said with a smile: "In three days, we will officially get married!"

    Feng Xiangzhao was also stunned. He had seen people who were fast, but he had never seen people who were so fast. He murmured in his heart: "Isn't this Mr. Xu a big red envelope from Meng Yuanchao? Why did he choose such a hasty day?  "

    But he did not show any dissatisfaction, but nodded lightly and said to his wife: "Our daughter is getting married!"

    His wife Duan Yu'e smiled. She reached out her right hand to the water tank, dipped her fingers in the water, patted her daughter Feng Lingxiu's forehead three times, and then said with sincerity: "My good girl, are you willing?"

    Of course, Feng Lingxiu couldn't wait to shout: "Yes, yes!"

    Everyone burst into laughter.

    Feng Lingxiu looked embarrassed and thought to herself: "Did I say something wrong?" She looked at Meng Yishan with a confused look, and then at her mother Duan Yu'e. She whispered softly: "What did I say?"

    Duan Yu'e reminded: "Pick up your shoes!" She specifically told this girl last night, but she didn't remember it.  It must have been when she thought it was time to sue her. This girl got sidetracked and didn't even hear what her mother said.

    "Promotion?" Feng Lingxiu said vaguely.

    Meng Yishan quickly trotted over, squatted down, put Feng Lingxiu's left foot on his knee, carefully helped her put her shoes back on, and deliberately pulled them up, and then changed to her right foot.  , continue to repeat the same action.

    Feng Lingxiu leaned on one of her mother's arms, the soles of her feet were itching, and Meng Yishan made her want to laugh a little. She looked at Ai Lang affectionately, then asked her mother, muttering: "What's the next sentence?  "

    "My dear daughter, are you willing?" Duan Yu'e asked again.

    Feng Lingxiu was stunned for a moment. She was afraid of making another mistake, so she didn't say a word and just nodded lightly.

    Meng Yishan seems to have eatenJust like that, he stood up suddenly, snatched Feng Lingxiu away from her mother-in-law, and held her around three times. This was also a procedure for proposing marriage. In the eyes of the folks in Quanhe Town,  Already used to it.

    Only Zheng Nan watched all this blankly, wondering what kind of customs and habits this was. Sometimes it was civilized, and sometimes it was quite barbaric. It made the proposal of marriage feel like being in dire straits.

    Uncle Xu happily shouted: "The engagement party is here!"

    The band started playing and it was very noisy. Various betrothal gifts had been placed at the Feng family. Relatives and friends rushed up to celebrate. After a period of excitement, they walked toward the hotel in a mighty manner. Today's banquet was for the woman.  Feng Xianzhao chose the guest house in the town.

    Because it was a marriage proposal and engagement, the number of people attending the banquet was not very large. The elders of both men and women, as well as relatives and friends, totaled only ten tables, less than a hundred people gathered together. After the banquet, the engagement  It can be considered a complete success.

    "It's finally over!" Zheng Nan was having a hard time. Although the matchmaker didn't have much to do, he had to accompany him most of the time. He stood there and stared with wide eyes. When he needed to cooperate, he said a few words.  A congratulatory message or something.

    "Thank you, Dr. Zheng!" Meng Yuanchao walked over with a smile.

    Zheng Nan shook his head: "Fortunately, I can handle it."
