Reborn in the 60s, I hunt to support my family and even seduce the village beauty.
Chapter 489 Fireworks
By the time Chang Kun returned with the fireworks, it was already completely dark.
Seeing their older brother carrying in cardboard boxes, the little girls curiously gathered around.
"Big brother, what's inside?"
"The painting on it is so beautiful!"
At this time, there weren't many different kinds of fireworks, and the main types were double-bang firecrackers and big firecrackers. As for buying colored fireworks shells, it wasn't easy.
The only box of fireworks shells was obtained by Chang Kun in exchange for a large pig leg.
The little girls have a lot more to play with: small firecrackers, snap pops, spinning plates, and rockets.
The safest one is the handheld sparkler, which is a thin paper tube with a wick at one end. When lit, it slowly sprays out golden-red sparks, and it won't explode even if you shake it in your hand.
I was planning to save it for the little girls to play with tomorrow, but Xiaoqing, Xiuer, and the others couldn't wait.
Knowing that it was fireworks, their eyes lit up and they followed their eldest brother closely.
"Hey bro, let's just play one..."
"We'll all listen, or you can show it to us."
"Okay, let's stay far away!"
They had only seen firecrackers from afar when others got married, and they had heard that fireworks were even more fun and beautiful, so they couldn't resist them for a moment.
As a doting older brother who spoils his younger sisters, how could he possibly resist the pleas of his daughters?
"Alright, go call Sister Hongxia and have her show you around... Don't play until you're all done, save some for the wedding tomorrow."
Xiao Qing cheered and ran off, shouting, "I'll go get it! I'll go get it! Big brother, don't tear it down yet, wait for me..."
Before the words were even finished, the person had already run to the neighboring yard.
This girl has never been this enthusiastic when studying.
Xiao Mu, Xiao Shui, Xiu'er, and Zi Xia could only wait patiently, as even the puppet show next to them couldn't attract their attention.
"Hey bro, where are the fireworks?"
Before even entering the door, Wang Hongxia's hurried voice could be heard.
Even though she was already in her twenties, she was still very interested in fireworks. Knowing that her younger brother had bought a lot of fireworks, she came over with Xiaoqing without saying a word.
Normally, you can forget about asking her to play with a few little girls.
She took out a few small firecrackers, ignored her sisters' longing eyes, and smashed them on the ground.
*Smack!*
*Slap! Slap!*
The firecrackers made a crisp sound, and the younger girls weren't scared at all; instead, they looked eager to try them out.
"Second sister, hurry up and share some with us!"
"This is for kids!"
Hongxia glanced at her younger sisters, then at Changkun beside her, and felt a little embarrassed as she snatched the firecrackers from the child.
Wang Hongxia picked up a handful of firecrackers and distributed them to the young girls, waving her hand: "Go on, go outside and set them off!"
These little gadgets aren't afraid of exploding; even if they explode in your hand, you won't get hurt.
She rummaged through the box again, and lo and behold, there were spinning plates and rockets too.
She often plays with this during the Chinese New Year, but she's never played with it on ordinary days.
He rummaged through the box, pulled out a packet of incense, lit it, grabbed about ten firecrackers, and ran out of the yard.
This is much more fun than firecrackers.
Not long after.
"Chirp—"
After a sharp screech, followed by a "pop," the rocket streaked through the air, leaving a trail of sparks before exploding into tiny fireflies.
"Wow! This looks fun!"
"Second sister, come play with us!"
"Please, Second Sister, I beg you..."
It turned out to be the noisy pleas of the little girls.
"Hmph!" Wang Hongxia glanced at her sisters and said seriously, "Kids can't play with this thing, getting hurt by an explosion would be terrible..."
"I've already shown you a lot of mercy, so get out of my way!"
Xiao Qing, indignant, pouted and ran into the yard to complain: "Big brother, look at second sister, she took all the fun toys!"
The other younger sisters also ran into the courtyard, looking at Chang Kun expectantly, waiting for their eldest brother to uphold justice for them.
Tomorrow is a big day, and Chang Kun doesn't want his sisters to be crying.
"Hey! This is even more fun, take this and play with it..." Chang Kun pulled out a bunch of handheld sparklers from the box, "Keep an eye on Xiu'er and Zixia, just make sure they don't get them in the eyes."
I also handed the lighter to Xiaoqing for safekeeping.
Holding the sparklers keeps them cool, and with Hongxia and Xiaoqing watching over them, the little girls won't get hurt.
I taught Xiaoqing how to light it with a lighter. She held the burning cigarette, her eyes sparkling.
"Little ones, let's go! Watch your big sister show you how to set off fireworks!"
The other maids were so captivated by the sight that they couldn't help but follow Xiaoqing out of the courtyard.
Chang Kun smiled faintly. The meaning of being reborn was simply to reunite his family and make them happy.
Watching the fireworks rise outside the courtyard and listening to the laughter and chatter of my sisters, this scene was exactly what I had dreamed of in my past life.
……
The next morning, just as dawn was breaking, Chang Kun was woken up by his mother.
Today is the big day, and the eldest sister, Changmei, helped Changkun get dressed and fix his hair.
After looking her up and down, she couldn't help but admire her.
"Wow, my brother looks so handsome today!"
"Hehe, big sister, when has your brother ever stopped being handsome?" Chang Kun laughed.
"Oh! Looks like you're not nervous at all?" Chang Mei smiled and said, "When I got married, I was so nervous I didn't even know which foot to step with first!"
The siblings chatted and laughed, looking relaxed, but Liu Meifen seemed a little nervous, unsure of what to do with her hands and feet.
"Hurry up and get ready, there's still time to chat, the groom is waiting outside!"
Chang Dashan's mouth never stopped agape; he kept grinning foolishly as he walked in and out of the room.
"Hey, get out of the way! Go out and see if there's anything else that hasn't been prepared."
Well, Dad got a scolding from Mom too.
At the entrance of the courtyard, the younger brother-in-law, brother-in-law, and others, each carrying a basket filled with wedding cigarettes and wine, were preparing to pick up the bride.
Everyone was beaming with joy, their faces radiant with smiles. It was such a momentous occasion for the family that they were so happy to be able to participate in the wedding procession.
In the alley, a row of six jeeps were washed clean, and red ribbons and big red flowers were tied to the front of the vehicles, making them look very festive.
Children and adults stood not far away in the alley, observing and discussing the grand wedding of the Chang family's son.
"What a blessing it is for any family's daughter to marry into such a family!"
"You bet! Wow, this is the first time I've ever seen so many cars!"
"When my son got married, we got four bicycles, and I felt proud of myself back then... But looking at it now, it's incomparable!"
"I heard it was Chang Kun's uncle, a high-ranking official, who helped borrow the car. Why don't I have such a kind relative!"
As the crowd grew larger, Liu Meilin gestured to Yang Lijun and Zhang Quhun, then picked up the basket and headed towards the crowd.
"Fellow villagers, we are all neighbors. Today is the happy day of my husband Chang Kun's wedding. Let's all come and share in the joy."
