Chapter 423 Dad and brother are drunk (1/3)
Mei Xiaoran didn't expect that he could successfully instigate these little sisters to have the idea of going back to school, and he was a little relieved.
Of course, it was mainly Mei Xiaoran who was admitted to the university, or the university in the provincial capital, and everyone was envious.
"Ran Ran, when you go to college in the future, I often write us a letter or something to let us know about your life in college."
"Then what's so difficult, isn't it just writing a letter."
Mei Xiaoran looked at these little sisters, looked at Meijiazhuang, and she felt both familiar and unfamiliar... Although she was born here, she was not considered to have grown up here, and she has treated this village from her previous life to the present. There is no memory of life, but here is her root, her hometown.
Ever since I lived in the county seat, I only come back every New Year’s holidays, and I only met these little sisters at that time, but the little sisters didn’t treat her as an outsider, so they met her affectionately. Don't mention it.
Everyone chatted for a while, seeing the sun being westward, in the afterglow of the setting sun, and finally waiting for the shouts of opening.
I don't know who is still holding the gongs and drums, shouting at the village: "The banquet is open, come over for the banquet!"
The little sisters also cheered and drilled into the courtyard of Mrs. Mei.
As a result, I ran to see that the yard could not fit at all, and the banquet was set out directly in the wheat field outside the yard.
According to Mei Zhonghua’s original idea, it would be almost enough to set up more than 30 tables. Later, when so many people came up in the village, 40 tables were placed directly. Fortunately, when I bought the ingredients, I had surplus, otherwise I really had to temporarily catch up. Up.
That era was not as poor as it was in the 1970s. After the reform and opening up, the living standards of rural people have also improved. Usually there is a table for weddings and weddings. Basically, there are 20 or 30 tables for guests. But this time, Mei Zhonghua put up a full forty tables of noodles. Although this can't be compared with the traditional celebrations, the noodles are not bad at all.
After the food and wine were all served, Mei Zhonghua helped his father come out and sit down, and said a few festive words in front of everyone, and finally concluded: "Everyone has to eat and drink tonight. Don't think about saving me."
Everyone burst into laughter, "Boss Mei, don’t worry, I will definitely not save you.
Let's go! "
After laughing, the folks began to feast on it.
The fragrant dishes, the good tobacco and alcohol, the happy smiling faces of the folks in the sunset...
Mei Xiaoran originally thought that her dad’s trip back home today was a bit too profligate and ostentatious, but now she has actually changed her mind. As long as her dad is happy, her father is happy, and the folks are happy, they should spend money to invite everyone to eat. What's wrong with the meal? There is only the Mei family in this village, and they are all from their own family!
As the representative of the banquet, Mei Xiaoran was surrounded by aunts and aunts in the village, but the women's table, everyone knows that she is a student, so they didn't persuade her to drink, just persuaded her to eat vegetables.
But Mei Xiaolei is miserable. Uncles and uncles don't care whether he is a student or not. There is no such thing as a man who doesn't drink alcohol. If he is so happy to enter university, he must drink alcohol!
Can't drink
Okay, sip it.
Still a student
Students also have to practice drinking!
Only seventeen or eighteen
It's time for young children to learn to drink at this age!
This persuasion, and the other persuaded. At first, everyone was protecting Mei Xiaolei and told him to stop until he clicked, but after that, he couldn’t hold it back. For this fist and the other guess, it’s rock, paper, scissors!
Mei Xiaolei really has never drunk liquor, but people often say that he can't drink and there are three or two. This is really not for nothing.
After a few glasses of wine, Mei Xiaolei is really not enough to pour a cup, even he himself is a little surprised!
When the big guy sees him like this, what are you waiting for? Let's go all together.
Don't talk about people like Mei Xiaolei who don't know how to drink, even if you have a drinker like Mei Zhonghua, you have to get down.
Mei Xiaoran originally wanted to protect her father and her brother, but later, she gave up and drank like this. It was too late for her to persuade.
The two drunk Mei family fathers must have gone back by themselves. In the end, Mei Xiaoran decided to spend the night in Meijiazhuang.
Both Mei Zhonghua and his son were helped to sleep in the old grandma's house, but Mei Xiaoran was called by his elder brother and sister-in-law to live there.
Sister-in-law Liu Xiaohui is a brisk person, and the rooms in the courtyard are neatly cleaned up, and Mei Xiaoran almost always settles in her elder brother's house when she comes back every Chinese New Year.
The older brother and sister-in-law are actually seven or eight years younger than Mei Zhonghua and his two children, and their two children are three or four years younger than Mei Xiaoran’s sister and brother.
Mei Xiaoran also likes to play with these two little nephews.
"Sister, you and your uncle are both admitted to college, do you have to take a car to go to a distant place to go to school in the future?"
"That's for sure, your uncle is admitted to the university in the capital, and you have to take a train to get there."
Mei Xiaoran solemnly confessed to these two little nephews: "You have to study hard too, learn more things, and strive to be admitted to university in the future."
The two brothers Mei Ziwen and Mei Ziwu laughed happily. The two of them went to junior high school in the village, and their academic performance was very average. Sister said this, they both felt like a fantasy, how easy it is to enter college what
"Don't just laugh, you two, I advise you, don't just think about your grades when you are studying at school, just think that I have to memorize more, I have to remember more, that's it."
Mei Xiaoran remembered that these two nephews did not go to school in later generations, and did not go home to work in farming after junior high school. Later, although they learned to do small business and the people were good at each other, they did a lot of sideballs. The matter, she was almost caught... Since she was alive again, she really didn't want to see the descendants of their Mei family so unbearable, at least she had to get over it.
Liu Xiaohui brought the cut watermelon over and told the two children: "Listen carefully to what your sister-in-law said. In the future, you two will also learn from your sister-in-law and your brother-in-law, and strive to be admitted to university."
She rushed to Mei Xiaoran again with a smile and shouted, "Ran Ran, come and eat watermelon."
This is not like the fact that it was difficult to eat a watermelon a few years ago. Mei Xiaoran felt very moved when thinking of the situation of following her dad to sell watermelons in Xiaodongying a few years ago.
"Sister-in-law, did you grow this watermelon by yourself?"
"Now that the households are contracted for production, except for the public grains that should be handed in, wheat must be grown. No one cares about what kind of crops you want to grow on your own land."
In fact, this is only a few years after the reform and opening up. There have been such drastic changes in the countryside, and people's lives are really getting better and better.
Mei Xiaoran was very happy thinking about it.
While eating watermelon, the little sisters of Mei family came to play with Mei Xiaoran again, "Sister Ran Ran, maybe you live at my house tonight, have a good chat with me, and help persuade my father. My mother."
Mei Xiaoran heard that it was Mei Chunmiao's voice, and agreed: "Okay, I'll go to your house to sit, but I'll stay with Big Brother for a while."
