Foreword: The groom encounters an unexpected "roadblock"
I thought it was a joyous day, but who knew that I would bite the gold halfway. As soon as a groom in Suqian, Jiangsu Province arrived downstairs at the bride's house, he was blocked by more than 20 "Diao people".
These people opened their mouths and asked for 30 Chinese cigarettes, which made the groom stunned. This is good, the groom has become a "smoke-free driver", and the kissing team can only stare dryly. What's going on with this farce? Let's take a look at this wonderful drama of "you block the door, I play cards".

The cause of the incident: Picking up relatives encountered "sky-high cigarettes" difficulties
On September 20, 2024, Xiao Wang in Suqian, Jiangsu Province, is finally going to marry his beloved girl. Early in the morning, he and his groomsmen dressed up carefully and set off in a few luxury cars. Xiao Wang thought to himself: "I can get a decent point today, and I should give a lot of red envelopes." ”
But he never expected that as soon as he arrived downstairs in the bride's community, he encountered a "roadblock". I saw more than 20 people standing at the top of the stairs, all of them eyeing each other. Before Xiao Wang could react, he heard someone shouting: "Want to go upstairs?" Take 30 Chinese cigarettes! ”
This scared Xiao Wang. 30 Chinese cigarettes? Are these people crazy? He hurriedly counted with his fingers, and the ordinary hard box was 450, and 30 would cost 15,000. If it is a soft package of China, it will be more than 700 for one piece, and more than 20,000 for 30 pieces. This is asking for smoke, this is clearly asking for half his life!
Xiao Wang tried to reason with these people: "Big brothers, can we be accommodating?" I have prepared a red envelope, why don't we discuss it? Who knew that the other party had a resolute attitude: "Not even one less!" Don't even think about going upstairs if you don't give a cigarette! ”
This can stump Xiao Wang. The family is still waiting, and the bride is probably dying. What's the matter? Buy it, it's too expensive, and where can you buy it in a while? Don't buy it, will this marriage be concluded?
Just when Xiao Wang was in a dilemma, his friend Lao Li suddenly said: "Don't worry, I have an idea!" I saw Lao Li conjure a deck of playing cards out of nowhere, found a table and a few chairs, beckoned the brothers to sit down and start playing cards.
It's a lot of fun. Some people play cards, some people watch plays, and some people take out their mobile phones to broadcast live, which is called a lively scene. Xiao Wang was dumbfounded, and thought, "Is this here to pick up relatives or to have a picnic?" He picked up his phone and wanted to call the bride, but he didn't know what to say, so he could only stand awkwardly awkwardly.
The latest development of the incident: The two sides are deadlocked, and the scene was once embarrassing
The farce lasted for almost two hours. The man who blocked the door refused to budge, and the groom was not willing to compromise. The card play of the receiving team slowly increased from fifty yuan to five hundred yuan, and the winners laughed, and the losers sighed, as if they were not in a hurry.
When the bride's family learned of the situation, they also went downstairs to persuade them, but with little success. Someone suggested calling the police, but they were afraid that it would affect the atmosphere of the wedding. Just when the two sides were at a stalemate, an elder of the bride's family stood up and said to the person blocking the door: "Today is a happy event, why should everyone be unhappy?" I'm out of this cigarette money, so get out of the way. ”
The words finally worked, and the person blocking the door finally relented. They took the red envelopes from their elders and gave way up the stairs. The groom was relieved and hurriedly led the team upstairs to pick up the bride.
Netizen's point of view: The voices of complaining come and go
As soon as this matter came out, it immediately aroused heated discussions among netizens. Someone said: "This is a marriage, it's just a robbery!" Some people complained: "30 Chinese cigarettes, is this going to get married or to open a tobacco company?" ”
Some people also affirmed the groom's response: "It's right to play cards, it's to consume with them!" I give full marks for this wave of operations! Someone else joked: "Groom: I'm here to get married, are you here to gamble?" However, some people expressed understanding: "There is such a custom in the countryside, but it is too much. Just give it appropriately, there's no need to be so serious. ”
The editor has something to say: the wedding should return to the essence and not be deceived by bad habits
Seeing this, it really makes people laugh and cry. Getting married is supposed to be a festive event, but how can it be like a negotiation? The meaning of a wedding is the union of two people, not who will "make things difficult" for each other. This bad habit of asking for sky-high dowries, cigarettes and alcohol at every turn should have been thrown into the garbage heap of history a long time ago.
Our ancestors paid attention to "courtesy and affection", but now it has become "courtesy and affection". Isn't getting married like doing business?
I hope that everyone can be more sincere and less routine when holding a wedding, so that the wedding can return to the most beautiful essence. After all, two people get married to live happily together, not for a momentary comparison and showing off.
