Chapter 150 Two or Three Things About Moving [3200]

Lu Yang "revealed" some of his guesses to Gong Pingan.

Then I didn't care about it anymore.

After returning to Shanghuai Village, he started to go back and forth between the two points and continued his clothing business.

This day was the day when his eldest cousin Lu Youren moved into a new house. Lu Yang got up in the morning and dressed up, changing into the Zhongshan suit he bought when he first went to Shanghai in order to resell treasury bonds.

Of course, this Zhongshan suit is no longer his most impressive piece of clothing.

Wear it because of what it represents.

It was Lu Yang's first formal suit.

And it just so happened that the first formal attire worn by my cousin Lu Youren and Da Jun should have been the black Zhongshan suit. From that moment on, their fate was officially rewritten.

Today is the day when my eldest cousin moves into his new house.

Such a memorable outfit, worn on such a memorable day, is just right.

Yin Mingyue also dressed up carefully and looked radiant, which made Lu Yang infatuated. If he hadn't been going to a wedding banquet later, he would have wanted to hold back, hehe.
Have a good meal at home first.

After hesitating for a long time, it was almost noon when the couple finally went out. Yin Mingyue only took out a red bag, which contained a gift money wrapped in red paper. In addition, there were two liters of good rice. The word "liter" is a unit word. Specifically, one liter is equivalent to about 1.5 catties. Two liters of good rice is about three catties.

According to the custom in Luyang, when there is a big happy event and the host holds a banquet, the guests are required to bring not only a gift money, but also good rice. There was no fixed amount before, but it became a custom later.

Perhaps the reason for this custom is that people are worried that if there are too many guests, the host family will not have enough food.

Lu Yang's hands were not empty either.

I specially picked out a piece of the best cloth from the factory. It was said that this cloth was used to congratulate my eldest cousin on his moving into a new house, but it was actually prepared for my nephew who was about to give birth to her son in Taozi's belly.

As soon as the baby landed.

We need to make small clothes and shoes for him, and prepare diapers. Cloth is needed everywhere. We don't know whether it will be a boy or a girl, so we have to prepare them first. It is the right time to send it over now. There is still more than a month to the due date. As long as it is not a premature birth like Chun San's wife, and there is a sewing machine at home, we can make as many small clothes and shoes as possible.

"Crackling."

Accompanied by the sound of firecrackers.

The auspicious time has arrived.

My eldest cousin was beaming with joy, and brought his equally beaming, pregnant wife out with a red plate to distribute wedding candies to everyone, sharing the good cheer.

The candy for housewarming and wedding is the same. It is a mixture of melon seeds, peanuts, and roasted beans. None of the three can be missing. Then it is embellished with a few hard candies to symbolize good luck.

Lu Yang also got some.

While peeling peanuts and melon seeds, occasionally throwing a few fragrant roasted beans into my mouth, and then tasting the sweetness of the wedding candy, I share the joy of my eldest cousin Taozi and his wife who are distributing melon seeds and peanuts to the villagers in the distance.

Lu Yang was also very happy.

At least, the happiness here also has its own medal of honor.

"Oh, it's lively."

Suddenly, a voice like a broken gong broke this beauty.

A motorcycle was coming from the distance.

Then the car stopped in front of my eldest cousin's new house and two yellow-haired guys jumped out of the car.

At first, no one recognized who they were, but when the two yellow-haired men came closer, especially the one in front with his signature limp, everyone was shocked.

"Oh my god, isn't this the kid Ma Lao San?"

"When did you dye your hair yellow?"

"What does it have to do with Huang Mao? You have to look carefully at his chariot. It is a little old, but it is still a motorcycle. It must have cost a lot of money. Where did Ma Lao San get the money?"

"Stolen?"

"Steal? If you could steal a bike like this, would you dare to ride it out so openly?"

"Yeah, so could it be that this car belongs to the yellow-haired guy at the back?"

"Hey, you don't know the yellow-haired guy behind you, but I do. His name is Guo Aqiang, and he's also a second-rate guy from the neighboring Xiahuai Village. He married a wife with the money earned from selling his sister. By the way, his brother-in-law is also from the Lu family, but he was kicked out. Could he be here to stand up for his brother-in-law today?"

"That will be a good show to watch."

The villagers talked loudly, saying that today's trip was worth it, not only did they get wedding candy, but they might also get to watch a good show later.

"Ma Laosan, what are you doing here?"

My eldest cousin and his wife haven't said anything yet.

The sixth brother, Lu Youzhi, had already jumped out with his younger brother, Lu Youxin. Today was a big day, and it was difficult for the elder brother and sister-in-law to get angry and chase them away, so he, the younger brother, had to be the bad guy. The factory had a holiday today.

Lu Youyi was there too, but he didn't go to the front. He picked up a brick left over from building a house.

Lu Yang just watched from a distance and was not ready to take action yet.

But his brow was furrowed.

It seemed that he was more interested in the tattered motorcycle that Ma Sanli and Guo Aqiang were riding than in themselves.

No matter how tattered this motorcycle is, it is still a motorcycle. It can move, start, and run, which means that no matter how bad it is, it is definitely better than junk. Two country scoundrels who can't even drink a bottle of soda, eat a popsicle, or smoke a cigarette without a filter are such poor fellows. Do you believe that he suddenly became rich?
Haha, it’s better to believe that he did something illegal.

"Don't do it!"

"We're not here to fight."

Ma Sanli was a little panicked and kept backing away. His leg was broken by the sixth son of the Lu family in front of him.

Even the yellow-haired man walking behind him, Guo Aqiang, who was originally quite arrogant, also retreated when he saw Ma Sanli was so scared.

He also shouted, "Wait a minute, wait a minute, we are not here to cause trouble. We are here to have a wedding banquet. I am Lu Youli's brother-in-law. I am here to congratulate you on moving into your new house. Is this how you, the people of Shanghuai Village, treat your guests?"

He said this.

Since it involved the honor of the entire village, the elders in Shanghuai Village were unhappy and stood up to scold him.

What kind of guest is he?

He is just a second-rate guy. So what if he has a yellow hair? Yellow hair plus second-rate guy equals second-rate yellow hair, still second-rate guy. Let them get out of here.

Besides, even Lu Youli was kicked out of the Lu family, so how could they be relatives? No one in the Lu family came forward to acknowledge him!

Some people want to beat him.

He pushed him and threatened to beat Ma Laosan as well.

What kind of person is this? How dare he come to Shanghuai Village and speak ill of Shanghuai Village in front of so many fellow villagers. Do you really think that the men in Shanghuai Village are all made of mud?

The crowd was excited for a while.

Of course, there were not many men who actually started pushing and shoving. They were just good at talking but they stood far away.

But this is not a solution.

After Lu Youren asked his father, he decided to let his fifth brother's brother-in-law in to see what he wanted to do.

"Fellow villagers, today is the day that I, Lu Youren, move into my new home. This may be the only day in a person's life. The next time I build a new house, I may have to wait until the baby in my wife's belly is born. When he grows up, we will see if he can have a promising future. Therefore, guests are welcome. Fellow villagers, please give my Lu family some face and let them in to see what they want to do."

"Okay, for the sake of the Lu family, let these two guys go. They can't do anything tricky."

"Yes, we must give face to the Lu family. Everyone should make way and let them in, but don't let them run away."

"Yes, yes, don't let them get away."

The folks are very enthusiastic!

If my cousin had just said that he wanted the villagers to give him face, not many of the villagers would have bought it.

But if we talk about giving the Lu family some face.

That would be a great honor.

Lu Yang opened a garment factory in Shanghuai Village. The first to benefit were the villagers of Shanghuai Village. Many of the farmers present here had wives who worked as seamstresses for Lu Yang's factory. Even if they didn't have wives, or couldn't afford a sewing machine for the time being and couldn't make a living from this, it didn't matter. Basically, every two or three days, a large truck from the city would deliver a batch of cloth to the garment factory in the village. Sometimes there were four or five trucks at a time, and sometimes there were only two or three trucks.

Lu Yang did not save the money, nor did he think of bothering the driver to help unload the truckload of goods. Instead, he still gave the unloading money to the villagers. It was not much, only 1 cent for each horse unloaded. After unloading a truckload of goods, the farmers in the village divided it equally, and each person only got a few dollars. But it was these few dollars that made them very motivated, and they were all grateful to Lu Yang.

Because after the busy farming season, there is nothing to do anyway, so it's like picking up something for free.

Moreover, anyone with a discerning eye could see that Lu Yang could actually save the money, because the factory already had workers, including the masters who unloaded the materials, the workers who did odd jobs for the masters, the workers who packed the clothes, and the workers who guarded the gate. Together, there were no less than a dozen people. But Lu Yang would rather let them stay in the factory to play, rest, and watch the unloading of goods. He was unwilling to mobilize these workers to squeeze out some time after finishing their own work to help unload the cloth from the trucks. Wouldn't this be giving these idle people in the village a chance to make money?

"How to do?"

"Why don't we just follow our previous plan and piss them off?"

"What the hell, do you want to be beaten to death?"

"But I don't have any money on me, just two cents. You said before that we came here today just to show off our chariot and have a good meal. Isn't the Lu family treating us? Then we will give gifts, one cent each, to piss them off to death. But now you say we can't do this, so where can I get the money? No, you have to lend it to me. I was generous enough to help you pay for that one cent just now. Look at my pocket, I even brought two cents."

"What should I do? I don't have any money. I spent all my money on the motorcycle and the rest was spent on gas. I don't have a penny in my pocket now."

Although the villagers made way for them.

But Ma Laosan and Guo Aqiang were getting more and more frightened as they walked. Their souls were about to escape. The key point was that they had no money in their pockets, which was cleaner than their faces. They were afraid that they would not be able to give gifts later and would be beaten to death in there.
