Chapter 2507
Old Mrs. Baoyin felt happy in her heart and walked forward quickly. When she got closer to her nephew-in-law and his wife, who was approaching, she opened her arms to embrace her nephew-in-law.
Le's father, Zhou Qiufeng, hurried to the front of her aunt. She only had time to call out "aunt" before she was embraced by her. Although she felt a little embarrassed, she didn't struggle.
"Good boy!" Old Mrs. Baoyin hugged her nephew, nephew and wife, caressed the backs of their heads, kissed the junior's forehead lovingly, and called out "good boy" one after another.
Le's father, Zhou Qiufeng, is now in his forties. His face turned red when his aunt called him a "good boy."
The two of them didn't dare to say anything else, so they could only passively accept it.
Leshan blinked his big eyes, looked at the people around his eldest aunt, and recognized a few of them. When he heard his sister saying hello to the elders, he cleverly wiped his mouth with honey, and followed his "cousin uncle" and "cousin uncle" all the way. "Brother" he called over.
Leyun has a strong memory, remembering the ranking of each cousin, and greeting all the uncles, cousins, and cousins she met one by one.
Together with his brothers, sisters, brothers of the same clan, guests from the same village and foreign guests, he welcomed his cousin's family, Le Jianle and Kanglefu, and greeted each other with smiles on his face and his nephews and nieces.
Old Mrs. Baoyin hugged her niece-in-law and her nephew-in-law for a while, then let go of her arms. She hugged a pair of cute little nephews and grand-nephews in her arms, and kept kissing the faces of the two children.
"Auntie, I'm already a big kid. If you act like this, my brother and I will be shy." After being kissed several times in public, Le Yun almost wanted to scream. So many people were looking at her, so embarrassed!
"Don't be shy, my little babies are so cute, who doesn't want to kiss them a few times." Old Mrs. Baoyin, who was originally sad, was amused, and finally she was willing to let go of her lovely grandnephew.
Old Mrs. Baoyin met her children, and the Le family members and villagers all extended a warm welcome to the guests from afar.
Her father, Aunt Feng, didn't understand Mongolian, so Le Yun clasped her hands together and bowed repeatedly in return.
The girl in Hanfu spoke Mongolian fluently. People from the same village as Mrs. Baoyin and Lekang's brothers and sisters of the same generation all had expressions of fear of writing.
"Grandma Baoyin, does your natal child understand the language of our nation?" "
Ah, this girl speaks Mongolian so well!" "This
grandniece from my natal family is extremely smart and has strong learning ability. Not only does she have superb medical skills, but she also can There are many languages. She learned Mongolian from the kid from Bianyuan when she was in college, and she can speak Mongolian." The
grand-niece had grown a face for herself. Old Mrs. Baoyin sounded proud, and she was happier than picking up money.
The people in the same village and the Le family clan once again exclaimed.
The old mother was in a happy mood and almost forgot about her business. Lekang came close to the old mother and reminded her softly. Old Mrs. Baoyin didn't talk about her nieces and nephews yet, and was busy letting her children and grandchildren present khatas and toast.
Because she has many children and grandchildren, if one person offers a hada to her natal family's nephews and grandnephews, they will not be able to hang it around their necks. Therefore, Mrs. Baoyin asked her children and grandchildren to send four representatives from each generation to present a khata to her natal family.
Le Jian, his wife and two brothers each presented a hada to their cousins. Le Yunkai and his three brothers represented the Yun generation, Le Shugang and Le Shuhai with their two brothers represented the Shu generation.
The fourth generation is represented by Le Zhaoxia, the eldest granddaughter of the Chao generation.
Le Zhaoxia is the eldest granddaughter among the great-great-grandchildren. At the age of twelve, she went to school with her elders who worked in Ximeng City. She was very talented in singing and dancing and was selected into the Ximeng City Youth Song and Dance Troupe.
After joining the song and dance troupe, in addition to studying, I also had to rehearse dances. During the Qingming Festival in April, the Le Zhaoxia troupe was busy rehearsing the dances for the May Day party, and was unable to accompany the elders to the grandmother's maternal home to recognize relatives.
Along with Le Zhaoxia, there were Le Chaowu and Le Chaohu who also did not go to their grandmother's house because they were studying in school. Le Chaowu was only half a year younger than Le Zhaoxia, and Le Chaohu was a boy, younger than the receptionist. A little over a year old.
Le Chaoxia, Le Chaowu and Le Chaohu took eight-year-old Le Chaoyang and presented a white hada to their cousins, uncles and aunts.
My own children presented a hada, and Mrs. Baoyin’s husband’s eldest brother-in-law and other family representatives also presented a hada for each generation.
Do you think this is the end?
No!
Then came the representatives of the old lady’s husband’s Le clan, who also presented a hada from each generation.
Then, the leader of the old lady's village led three villagers and also presented a hada to the guests from afar.
The leader of the village, Luo Ji, has a Mongolian surname changed from Han to Han. His ancestors have the Mongolian surname "Bo'er Zhijin". The leader is over seventy years old, with a round waist and thick arms. He can truly be said to be tall and tall.
Then, Bian Yuan's family also presented a hada to the guests from afar.
In this way, the etiquette of offering hada ends, and then it is time to toast.
The Lejian brothers and their brothers from the same village, held the tea tray with wine bowls on the hada, sang a toasting song, and took turns toasting.
Even if the wine is mare's kumiss, the alcohol content is not high, but it can't stand the crowd. Round after round, Le's father Zhou Qiufeng is not drunk, but he is about to need to pee!
Le Yun Leshan said that one of the doctors did not drink, and the other said that children could not drink, so they just touched their lips. Everyone who was toasting respected the little girl who was a doctor and did not persuade her to drink.
Seeing the guests coming from far away, they drank more than twenty bowls of wine in succession. The toasters Le Shi and the fellow villagers were finally satisfied and extremely happy.
The toasting songs were no longer sung over there, so Le Yun discussed with her cousins: "I brought some gifts to celebrate my aunt's birthday. Do you think it's appropriate to move here now, or come back later?" "It cost you money
. "
Brother Lejian quickly thanked his niece and discussed with her: "If you don't mind letting the brothers, sisters and elders in the same village appreciate the gift, you can do it now, and it will be just in time for your cousins and nephews to take it back."
" Okay, cousins and nephews are here to help." Le Yun didn't mind at all that her cousins and uncles were "showing off" their gifts, and she called her cousins and nephews to help.
Le Shuhai and several brothers followed their little cousin to the helicopter and waited on both sides of the hanging ladder.
Le's father Zhou Qiufeng also quickly returned to the helicopter to help.
Le Yun entered the cabin and passed the plastic crisper from the inside to the outside.
The boxes came out of the cabin one after another. Le Shuhai and others took turns delivering them, arranging the boxes according to his uncle's instructions.
After six large boxes in a row, there were nine-color steamed cakes wrapped in plastic wrap one by one. After that, the boxes and steamed cakes were moved out in turn.
The steamed cakes that came out later were placed on the boxes that came out first. There were a total of twenty-nine plastic preservation boxes containing ingredients and nineteen beautiful steamed cakes.
Then, Le Shuhai and other brothers carried out a large rectangular wooden plate, which contained beautifully shaped flower buns - koi carps. Six koi carps carried a plate of fairy peaches surrounded by flowers and fruits.
The colorful buns are so colorful that they look fake and real.
When the plate of gifts came out, the onlookers took a breath, followed by a burst of praise.
Hua Momo moved out of the helicopter, and Le Yun handed out a few bags of bread, and then handed out the fruit box, pastry box, and dried fruit box.
After handing over the large items, I took a few discs, opened a few cardboard boxes, put some clothes and jewelry on the plates and handed them out.
After handing over the gift, she hung a small backpack on her shoulder, and after getting off the helicopter, her
father Zhou Qiufeng also carried a backpack.
All the gifts were brought out, and Le Jian and his brothers were confused.
The villagers who visited old Mrs. Baoyin's house and some people from neighboring villages were all dumbfounded when they saw the birthday gift from the old lady's family.
After handing the gifts to her cousins and nephews, Le Yun acted as the shopkeeper and happily jumped to her aunt's side, holding her brother's hand and acting like a good baby.
Old Mrs. Baoyin held her grandniece's hand, her eyes red.
His brother had passed away. As the elder brother himself, Le Jian could only bite the bullet and take charge of the important events and let his nephews and grandchildren carry the gifts back.
Old Mrs. Baoyin took her grandniece and niece-in-law's hands and went back to the big tent with everyone.
Le Shuhai and others carried boxes in groups of four or two, or one person held a box, a steamed cake, or a plate, and followed the crowd.
A large and mighty team marched back to the tent area, and the guests followed the hosts into the big white tent.
The white tent at the old lady's house was very large. In order to support the roof, there was a circle of pillars in the middle, which was more than enough to accommodate eighty or ninety people.
The guests entered the tent and sat on the carpets on both sides.
Old Mrs. Baoyin sat in the middle. On one side were her nephews, nieces and daughters-in-law, and on the other were her husband's surviving brothers and cousins.
The old lady’s brothers-in-law or their wives are all in their seventies or eighties.
A row of small tables was set up around the big tent, and everyone sat behind the small tables, with the older people in the front and the younger people in the back.
People from the Lejia Shu generation or Yun generation carried the gifts into the big tent and lined up in two rows in the central area from the inside to the door.
After all the gifts were put into the account, Leyun stood up, went to pick up the tray with jewelry, walked to her eldest aunt, knelt down and presented her gifts to her.
Everyone could clearly see that the plate was full of jewelry, including one pair each of gold bracelets, jade bracelets, and silver bracelets, one bracelet each of pearls, agate, and wooden beads, three pairs of earrings, and four necklaces.
Old Mrs. Baoyin shed tears of happiness and took out a jade bracelet to put on her wrist. She also took out a pair of pearl earrings, a bracelet and a necklace to wear.
The older boy from the Le family took the plate.
Le Yun brought another set of summer clothes on a plate and handed it over.
The children of the Shu family took a coat and unfolded it to show everyone that the dress was in the style of Han Chinese clothing, with colorful thread embroidery and a group-shaped longevity flower.
In addition to coats, there are also middle coats, trousers, shoes, and trousers.
There are three sets of summer clothes.
Three sets of spring and autumn clothes, and the same three sets of winter clothes.
Winter clothes are fur-style, with two sets of robes and a crane cloak.
Classmate Le only brought jewelry and clothes to her aunt to see, and there was no need to present other gifts in person.
Mr. Le's family opened a few boxes and invited the guests to enjoy the medicinal whole lamb and smoked fish made by his cousin.
The aroma of braised whole lamb and smoked fish wafts out, making people feel hungry.
The medicinal food was displayed, the young people opened the pastry box and the nut box, sent several plates to each table, and invited the guests to taste.
The young people of Le's family served fruits, and then went to get milk tea and meat to entertain their cousins.
While the guests were eating, they chatted enthusiastically with the host and the guests who came from afar.
The young people from Lejia Yun's family greeted the guests and went to prepare lunch.
Leyun sat for a while, drank two bowls of tea, picked up a big backpack from her father, and took her younger brother to offer cigarettes to the neighbors or villagers who were helping roast whole lamb, pancakes, make milk tea, etc. at her aunt's house.
Mongolian people pass snuff bottles to each other when meeting, while Han people pass cigarettes.
The children of the Chao generation of the Le family and several children from the village also ran out of the tent happily and took Leshan to play with them.
Grandma Baoyin's grandnephew came to say hello, and the villagers who helped also warmly accepted the cigarettes, and invited the guests to spend a few more days in the grassland and visit their home.
After saying hello to the helpers, Le Yun let her brother and the children play by themselves while she walked around outside the tent and enjoyed the scenery of the village.
The villagers in the settlement were warm and hospitable. Someone from each family took the initiative to help out at Mrs. Baoyin's house, leaving the woman at home to do housework.
Children can ride horses at a very young age, and some half-year-old children ride horses to distant places to practice riding and shooting.
Some people are making milk tea or cheese, and the mellow fragrance fills the air, floating together with the thin mist-like white smoke above the tent.
The quiet and beautiful prairie and the smell of fireworks in the world all show the tranquility of the years.
Le Yun wandered around casually, then walked slowly to her eldest nephew Le Shuhai, caught him and asked: "Eldest nephew, I saw there seemed to be vehicles from other provinces over there. Are there any tourists in the village?" "Oh.
" , My aunt was talking about those two cars, right? In the past two months, tourists from other places came to the grassland to experience Naadam. They wanted to drive across the grassland by themselves, but they got lost, the car ran out of gas, and they were stranded in the grassland. Yes
. A family in our village went looking for cattle, found them, and helped them. They brought gifts the day before yesterday to thank the villagers." When the
little cousin mentioned the car, Le Shuhai knew which family the little aunt was talking about. Naturally, there are only so many people in the village. If any outsider comes, the whole village will know about it within three or two days.
"You often have tourists passing by here now?" Le Yun looked into the distance. If she was not mistaken, there were also foreign tourists in the village upstream.
She remembered that her cousins, nieces and nephews said that the settlement was deep in the hinterland of the grassland, and no tourists had been seen passing by nearby for three to five years.
Therefore, who can say whether it is a coincidence that the lost person got lost nearby, or if there is another purpose.
Of course, Le Yun would not express her suspicions, nor was she prepared to ask her nephew about the presence of tourists in a village upstream.
"Our place is far away from the travel route, and few people pass by it. On the other hand, there is a road in the village committee village, which is more than 20 miles away from us, that leads to the scenic spot, and people driving there often pass by." Le Shu said
. Hai told the truth. As soon as he finished speaking, he saw someone galloping on horseback in the distance. Guessing that there were guests, he shouted towards the tent and informed the brothers and sisters in charge of the reception to prepare.
There were guests coming, and there were other people around, so it was not appropriate to say too much, so Le Yun wandered back to the tent.
