Salam buat semua. Apa khabar kalian? Atok dan Wan harap korang dalam keadaan sihat walafiat. Wah, tengah-tengah bulan begini ramai juga yang buat kenduri atau majlis perkahwinan anak-anak! Bukannya apa, Atok ini orang gomen yang dah berpencen. Faham-faham jer lah. Orang gomen jenis makan gaji macam Atok ini, sejak dahulu hingga kini, biasanya tengah-tengah bulan ini makan maggi jer, istilah budak-budak masa kini. Agak kering dan nipis poket. Bukan takde duit, tapi banyak komitmen kata budak-budak la ni. So, pergerakan ke majlis perkahwinan ini agak mencabar; duit minyaknya, sampul salam keruknya, dan lain-lain yang korang sedia maklum. Pergi tetap pergi pasal orang sudah jemput. Dan kata ustaz Atok, memenuhi jemputan itu satu kewajipan. Mesti hadir, walaupun mungkin sumbangan envelope salamnya tak banyak merahnya. Hahaha…Yang faham-fahamlah, yang tak faham itu biarkan diorang fikirkan sendiri.
Oh, majlis sekarang ini hebat-hebat. Tak ramai lagi yang kahwin pakai kanopi. Rata-rata dewan perkahwinan, bukan dewan orang ramai atau dewan sekolah! Dalam dewan itu dah siap dah dengan pakej lengkap..daripada katering, hiasan pelamin, Mak Andam (kadang-kadang Mak Nyah) sehinggalah DJnya. Tak payah nak cari-cari asing-asing. One Stop Center kata Orang Putih. Pakej tak ada lagi bawah RM15 pax (satu kepala). Mesti RM25 ke atas. Hari itu kan hari bersejarah dan penuh bermakna buat keluarga pengantin. Hari ini kita punya, kita enjoy. Berhabis RM25,000 apa ada hal? Nanti collection daripada tetamu boleh cover kos. Minta-minta begitulah.
Korang kalilah dengan jumlah jemputan yang dipanggil meraikan majlis. Kalau satu keluarga yang datang bawa 4 orang (gantung periuk kata orang dulu-dulu), korang darabkan dengan 500 jemputan, sama ada berkad atau jemput pakai whatsapp atau media sosial yang lain, atau yang dijemput mulut secara lisan. Mesti garu kepala tuan punya majlis. Belum pukul dua petang lauk dah habis. Yang tinggal kuah. Terpaksalah tuan rumah buat pelan emergency, suruh anak pergi kedai mamak cari kari ayam dan nasi beriyani, atau paling teruk pun buat telur goreng makan dengan baki kuah yang ada. Macam-macam hal.
Berbalik kepada cerita sumbangan ikhlas tetamu yang hadir. Maaf cakaplah, memang wrong timing korang buat majlis, tengah bulan. Rata-rata satu family beri satu sampul.On the average, satu sampul berisi sekeping not merah, untuk makan 4 orang. HAHAHA…. Tapi korang (tuan majlis) tak boleh marah. Itu sumbangan ikhlas mereka dan korang pun buat majlis ini bukan niat bisnes,kan..Ikhlas nak jamu orang ramai makan. Keuntungan korang bukan di dunia, tetapi di akhirat. Banyak pahala beri makan orang ramai, di samping merapatkan silaturahim. So, betulkan niat wahai tuan rumah. Bukan nak cari untung tapi cari pahala tau! Jangan pula berhutang, bergolok bergadai hanya untuk majlis sehari itu. Hidup mesti diteruskan. Hutang-hutang mesti dibayar. Jangan pula lepas majlis, tuan rumah laki bini pergi healing sampai pagi tak balik. Oh No! KIH,KIH,KIH. Macam-macam perangai ada dalam dunia ini.
Berbalik kepada entri Atok kali ini, kita santai-santailah sayangku. Kita belek-belek surat khabar lama tentang tempat kita, Kuala Langat yang Atok dah siapkan untuk korang layari. Atok bahagi-bahagikan penulisan ini kepada 3 +3 bahagian; 3 yang pertama, link untuk korang klik untuk membaca berita tentang Kuala Langat sejak zaman Omputih sampailah kini, dan 3 slot lagi tentang peristiwa bergambar yang berlaku di Kuala Langat dalam tempoh masa tersebut. Maaflah gambar-gambar hitam putih serta kualiti surat khabar lama. Memang tak cantik dan jelas, tapi itu sahajalah yang Atok ada. Kalau ada antara korang yang nak kalerkan gambar tersebut, buatlah. Atok suka, Atok suka! Kongsi sama Atok dalam ruangan komen, ok? Ajak emak bapa, atok, nenek, wak, embah korang sekali, pasti ada yang kenal sesiapa dalam gambar-gambar itu. Jadikan modal untuk Quality Time. Korang.healing sampai pagi tak balik. Oh No! Anyway, kalau ada silap salah Atok dan Wan , kami minta maaf banyak-banyak. Wasalam.
