I really don't want to be a teacher

Under the illumination of a few incandescent lamps, the courtyard looks very bright.

Dining tables were placed in the yard. The guests who entered did not linger, so they found a table and sat down.

The guests gathered around the dining tables didn't make much noise, and the whole yard seemed a little quiet.

On the wall surrounding the yard, there are some happy characters pasted on them, and some festive arrangements are placed, but the color is a bit different from normal wedding banquets.

"...Uncle Xu, Uncle Xu..."

The woman who was welcoming the guests noticed this and hurried towards the old man.

"...Uncle Xu, the interior has been arranged according to your requirements. Look..."

Walking up to the old man, the woman hurriedly asked,

"You continue to receive the guests. When the guests are almost here and the auspicious time comes, you will marry the two old people."

The old man first restrained his smile on his face and said something,

"Then Uncle Xu, go in first."

"……to make."

The woman turned her head and looked at Lian Ge, but didn't ask any further questions. She said something to the old man, took two steps to the side, and stepped aside again.

The old man nodded, answered, led the way, and walked towards the yard.

Lian Ge looked into the courtyard gate again, moved his feet, and stepped into the courtyard gate with the old man.

yard,

A table of guests sat around each other without talking much, and each was silent,

Under the incandescent lamp, the shadows of the guests at the banquet were reflected, making them look a little quiet.

There were only some helpers and some helpers walking between the tables and serving the dishes, but they were silent.

"...Move it a little further, just hang there..."

The man who came to get the pile of things before was standing by the fence, calling out to a man standing on the ladder in a low voice, and laying out some things on the wires,

"...just hang it there."

"Uncle Xu..."

Noticing the old man and Lian Ge, the man said something to the person on the ladder, and hurried over,

"... Uncle Xu, the things I took from you, what should be pasted, and what should be hung up, have been pasted up and hung up. Uncle Xu, what do you think?"

"... Very good, very festive."

The old man moved his feet, turned his lower body, looked inside and outside the yard, and said with a smile,

"Brother, you are here too."

The man also smiled, then turned his head and greeted Lian Ge,

"Come here to ask for a glass of wedding wine, to be happy, I don't know if I will disturb you."

With a slight smile, Lian Ge said aloud,

"Don't bother, don't bother. Welcome, welcome..."

The man hurriedly responded and greeted,

"...Brother, come, sit here first, sit here first..."

Greeting and leading the way, the man wanted to lead Lian Ge to the next dining table.

"...Let this distinguished guest sit at the table with me. It's easy to talk."

The old man called out to stop the man,

"...Eh... then this distinguished guest, this way please, please sit here."

The man responded, paused, turned around, walked towards the yard, near the table in the main room,

"Young man, go and have a seat first, and I'll be right over."

The old man laughed again and said aloud,

Lian Ge nodded and didn't say much, and walked towards the dining table next to the main room with the man leading the way.

"... Your honored guest, sit down."

The man became more polite, led the way, walked to the dining table, stepped aside,

"...You sit down for a while, I'm really sorry, excuse me for a while."

With an apology, the man said something.

"Brother can do as he pleases."

Lian Ge said politely, and said with a smile.

"...Then you can do it yourself."

The man was polite, said something more, and then quickly walked away again, walking towards the old man who was still in the yard.

……

Seeing the man walk away, Lian Ge turned his gaze away,

At the dining table in front of him, no one else was seated, and the seats were still empty, only Lian Ge,

Pulling out a chair, Lian Ge sat down at the dining table without paying attention to the surrounding dining tables.

Glancing at the dishes on the dining table, which looked like an ordinary banquet, Lian Ge turned his gaze to the door of the main room next to him.

This dining table is close to the yard, past the yard is the steps under the eaves,

The aisle in front of the dining table, along the past, is the door of the main room,

The door of the main room is now open towards the inside and on both sides, through the door of the main room,

In the main room, it seemed a little dark, only a few candles placed in the main room, gathering the light that barely penetrated in from the yard, barely illuminated the main room,

However, in the corner, under the lights, there are still some dark places where no light can be seen, which seems to be accumulated, filled with the indissoluble night.

The main room is on the back, the door of the main room is facing the past, on the innermost wall, there are two grand master chairs beside the wall, on the grand master chairs, there are no people sitting, but two spiritual seats,

Between the two grand master chairs, on a small table, there is a plate of fruit. Behind them, there are a few sticks of burning incense and two candles. handwriting, and after that, a yellowed landscape painting hung on the wall.

The two sides of the Taishi chair, going along the wall and going to both sides, seem to be the passage leading to the back of the house, but there is no light, and it has been submerged in darkness, leaving only some wind, blowing past there from time to time, gently shaking the lights in the main room. Candle after candle.

"... cluck... cluck..."

At this moment, the sound of rooster crowing resounded in the yard, and the already quiet courtyard with few people talking became even more quiet. All the guests turned their heads one after another and looked towards the source of the sound.

Looking at the main room again, Lian Ge turned his gaze back to the yard,

On the side of the yard, on the side next to the gate,

The old man was changing into the clothes that the man handed over, it was a Taoist robe,

While wearing and tying it on his body, the old man was talking to the man.

With the breeze passing through the courtyard gate, the voice of words rang in Lian Ge's ears,

"...The two chickens are ready, this is...Uncle Xu, see if there is any problem."

"...No problem, I didn't feed the chicken today."

With belts and buttons fastened, the old man answered from time to time,

The two crowing chickens were beside the old man, being looked after by someone.

"...No, I was afraid that I wouldn't feed the chicken, and I was afraid that it would die, but it turned out to be nothing."

"...Just starving for a long time, it's not enough yet."

The old man finished buttoning the buttons, lowered his head, looked at the two chickens again, and said aloud,

"...Speaking of which, Uncle Xu, is there any point in not letting the chickens eat?"

"Exquisite, why are there so many particulars. This is a happy event after all. Although it is necessary to respect and have some etiquette, it is not so taboo. On this day of great joy, you just have something to offend, so I apologize. That is to say, can the two old people still blame you? Besides, you guys are doing this with filial piety, and the two old people must know... don't be too taboo, just do it as a happy event."

"...Succeed, Uncle Xu..."

"...Then Uncle Xu, what do you mean by not giving chicken food?"

The two people who were looking after the chicken next to them listened and couldn't help but say something,

"...What do you say, I'm afraid that the two chickens will shit when they are in the wedding hall. Isn't this a bad luck on the big day?"

Hearing the sound, the old man turned his head and said something quietly.

Hearing the old man's words, the person who took care of the chickens and the man couldn't help lowering their heads again, and looked at the two chickens.

"... How is the person holding the chicken getting ready?"

The old man withdrew his hand and asked again.

"It's been arranged. I invited an old lady in the village to help me."

"...Then let everyone prepare and send the chicken over. After a while, when the auspicious time comes, the sedan chair outside will start from here, go out from here and come back...you, you can also be regarded as your mother's family. Man, the proper etiquette still has to be..."

The old man said hello to the man,

"...In the end, I'll come back here and get married... In a while, I will follow. Whatever I tell you to do, you can do it..."

"... How is the layout of the wedding hall?"

"...It's all arranged according to what you said, Uncle Xu. The spiritual seats of the parents have been invited over there, and the things are also arranged."

"...Let me see... OK, let's hold the chicken first, wait until the guests are almost here, and the auspicious time will start... By the way, I asked you to leave a few tables empty, have you reserved them?"

"...Stay, stay..."

"...Well, let's go then..."

The old man nodded, said something more, looked around in the yard, moved his feet, and walked quickly towards Lian Ge's side.

"...Young man, I've been waiting for a long time..."

Chapter 518 Mother

Wearing a yellow Taoist robe, the old man said something with a smile, and then sat down on a stool beside Lian Ge.

"You're welcome, old gentleman."

In response, Lian Ge turned his gaze, glanced at the old man, shook his head slightly,

The old man smiled, turned his head, and looked into the yard.

Lian Ge didn't say much, and looked away, looking inside and outside the yard.

……

Outside the courtyard, there are still guests coming,

Or after giving gifts, they turn around and leave, or after saying a few words to the woman who greets the guests outside the door, they go straight to the table.

In the courtyard, under the incandescent lamp,

The guests who had already been seated were quiet, sitting at the dining table, as if they were hiding something, no one spoke, and no one looked around.

The man who looked after the two chickens, and the man before him, each holding a chicken, walked into the main room, a passage submerged in darkness.

Seeing the two men walking into the hallway with the chicken in their arms, Lian Ge turned his gaze back and didn't say much.

"...Young man is very human. It was the first time I came out with my father, and he was married to a family. I stood beside him, feeling terrified, and my heart was terrified." The old man looked at the yard and said with a smile .

"The old man is absurd. Maybe it's better for me to cover it up. I might be panicking in my heart." Without turning his head, Lian Ge smiled and said aloud.

"... That's amazing. When I turned my head around, I couldn't make a sound when I opened my mouth. When I made a sound, the sound was trembling."

Lian Ge smiled when he heard the sound, but didn't turn his head and didn't answer the conversation.
