Chapter 498 August 8th

A smile appeared on Gu Xihuai's lips, and he gave Gu Zhifeng a smug look.

He cleared his throat and raised his glass towards Yan Shaoyu: "Okay, Third Brother is counting on you!"

The changes in Yan Shaoyu were seen by Yan Shaoyang and Yan Shaoli. They lowered their eyelids slightly to hide the excited tears in their eyes. Ever since the incident in the Yan family, they had never seen their eldest brother smile again. Now that he was going to start a family, he had also changed.

How great it would be if the Yan family had not broken up and my parents were still alive. They would be the happiest family, right?

Next, everyone at the dinner table began to discuss the details of the wedding. Originally, it was planned to hold Gu Tinghuai and Bai Mei's wedding first, but considering that Yan Shaoyu and Gu Yuehuai didn't have much vacation time, they decided to hold it early.

Yan Shaoli said to Gu Yuehuai with great interest: "Yuehuai, shall we start hanging red silk and pasting wedding characters tomorrow?"

Bai Mei smiled and said, "I'll take a leave. If we work together, we can work faster, right?"

The whole family was having a great time, and the laughter lingered in the house for a long time.

Because Yan Shaoyu was determined to live together after marriage, he did not enter the room at night and squeezed into Yan Shaoyang's room. For this, Gu Zhifeng, the old father, was very pleased, and Gu Tinghuai and Gu Xihuai were also very satisfied.

Gu Yuehuai didn't know whether to laugh or cry. After thinking about it, he decided to pull Yan Shaoyu into the room before going to bed and bring him to the Xumi space to work.

They both got married, so it was normal for them to live in the same room. Besides, he knew about the Xumi space, so they had to work together, right? It would save time and effort, and they could harvest two more crops.

Yan Shaoyu had no objection to this. He also thought that if he worked more, Gu Yuehuai would have to work less. The couple worked hard on the farm. It must be said that Yan Shaoyu was a real hard worker. He turned the millstone effortlessly and was more useful than a cow.

There were bags of white rice and flour piled up in the thatched hut. The two did not leave until late at night when everyone was asleep.

However, even though Gu Yuehuai tried to persuade him to stay, Yan Shaoyu left without changing his expression or heartbeat and went to Yan Shaoyang's room.

Gu Yuehuai smiled and shook his head, and had a good night's sleep.

The next day, Yan Shaoli got up early to make breakfast. After breakfast, Gu Zhifeng, Gu Xihuai and Yan Shaoyang all went to work. Gu Tinghuai took Bai Mei to the county hospital on a bicycle to ask for leave, and bought some things for the wedding on the way back.

When Gu Yuehuai woke up, Yan Shaoyu had just returned from his morning run outside.

Yan Shaoli waited impatiently, and when he saw Gu Yuehuai push the door open, he stood up and took out a hollowed-out wedding character from a pile of bright red things on the ground, and said with a smile: "Sister-in-law, you are finally awake, come and eat, and then we can start working. Look, these are all bought by Brother Gu a long time ago, and they have been there for a long time!"

Gu Yuehuai took a look and found that this was exactly the thing she had given Gu Tinghuai the money to buy.

He was not in a hurry to arrange a wedding for himself and Bai Mei, but instead left the things for her and Yan Shaoyu to use.

Yan Shaoli served the meal and said, "By the way, sister-in-law, the secretary came over this morning and said he wanted to see you for something. You didn't wake up and I didn't call him, so he went back. I wonder if it was something important."

Gu Yuehuai nodded: "I'll go to the breeding area after dinner."

After dinner, Yan Shaoyu went out to the fields. Although he was no longer an educated youth of the Dalaozi Production Brigade, he had no problem helping with farm work. Gu Yuehuai also went to the breeding area.

As soon as he saw Gu Yuehuai, Wang Fu greeted him with a smile: "Little Gu, you are finally back."

Gu Yuehuai also smiled: "If you have something to say, just tell me. Why are you being polite to me?"

Wang Fu was touched by this and said with a sigh, "It's nothing serious, I just wanted to thank you in person. You came back late yesterday, so I didn't come to visit you. Xiao Gu, I thank you on behalf of the members of the brigade."

"I don't understand what the branch secretary said." Gu Yuehuai shook his head, a little surprised.

At this time, Wang Peisheng came in with a stamped award certificate. He also heard what Gu Yuehuai said and said with a smile: "Little Gu, the secretary thanks you for our brigade's grain planting. It was you who suggested planting more sweet potatoes that saved our brigade from locust invasion. If it weren't for this, our brigade would have suffered great losses. How could we still smile every day?"

Gu Yuehuai understood. No wonder the people in the group looked so relaxed when they came back yesterday. They didn’t look at all like those on the road who were in a hurry.

She proposed that the team plant more sweet potatoes because she knew there would be a locust plague. Later, Wang Fu really planted sweet potatoes against all odds. She was laughed at by other teams at the time, but after the locust plague, the Dalaozi Production Team suffered the smallest loss.

Wang Fu took the certificate from Wang Peisheng and handed it to Gu Yuehuai: "You are the lucky star of our team."

Gu Yuehuai looked at his name on the certificate, smiled and said, "I just thought that the country advocates raising pigs, and sweet potatoes are good for filling our stomachs, and the leaves can be eaten by both us and the pigs, so it's not a loss. I didn't expect to stumble upon this by accident."

Wang Fu waved his hand: "It's not an accident. You are the lucky star of our team!"

However, words like "Fuxing" which were mixed with a bit of superstition could not be spoken loudly. The certificate also stated that he had made contributions to the brigade. Now, Gu Yuehuai was definitely the number one advanced element in the Dalaozi Production Brigade.

When leaving the breeding place, Gu Yuehuai did not forget to invite Wang Fu and Wang Peisheng to attend her wedding banquet.

The news of Gu Yuehuai's marriage was widely spread early this morning. Wang Fu and Wang Peisheng had also heard about it. They also heard that she had quarreled with some people in the team for her man. They didn't expect that this was actually true.

Wang Fu looked at Gu Yuehuai and said with great emotion: "Congratulations, little Gu. I wonder which young man has such a good fortune."

Wang Peisheng nodded in agreement. There was only one outstanding girl like Gu Yuehuai in the area. She was pretty, could make money, and was good to her family. Just think about the new house that the Gu family had built. Who wouldn't be envious?

Not to mention anything else, there must be at least eight people who came to propose marriage to the third son of the Gu family during this period, if not ten, right?

Gu Yuehuai didn't mention Yan Shaoyu's name, as he would know it at the wedding. After saying goodbye to the two of them, he took the certificate and left the breeding place. Thinking about his friends in the county, he still had to go and inform them.

At noon, Gu Tinghuai and Bai Mei came back with large and small bags.

Red cloth, cotton, melon seeds and peanut candies, as well as thermos, teacup, spittoon and other wedding supplies were all bought back. The two also asked someone to calculate the time, and the wedding date was set for five days later, August 8th.

Bai Mei opened the cloth bag and took out the red dress with a new and neat style. She said, "I have already cut the pattern of the wedding dress. You only need to use a few stitches. It will not be too late to wear it when you get married."

Gu Yuehuai touched her wedding dress and smiled: "Thank you, sister-in-law."

On the eighth day of August, the wedding of this life is finally put on the agenda.
