After the Ruan family left, the Huo family began discussing the details of Ruan Ruan and Huo Haocheng's wedding.

"Haocheng, Ruanruan, tell me yourselves, what are your plans for this wedding?"

The main reason is that their wedding is too special. Ruan Ruan grew up in the Huo family. Although she has now been recognized by the Ruan family, the Ruan family is in the capital. Even if they wanted to go to pick up the bride, the distance would not allow it.

"Grandpa, it's not necessary to go to so much trouble. My brother and I will get our marriage certificate in the morning, and then we can have lunch at home with our relatives and friends."

Ruan Ruan's idea was simple: keep the wedding as simple as possible. In the 22nd century, she had attended too many friends' weddings. She was dragged out of bed before dawn to do makeup, pick up the bride, exchange vows, and toast. After the whole process, she hadn't eaten much and was full of alcohol. For someone who doesn't drink, this was torture, and she didn't want to do that.

"younger sister!"

Hearing Ruan Ruan say this, Huo Haocheng held her hands in his own, feeling an indescribable sense of guilt. Ruan Ruan was a pampered young lady; how could her wedding be so shabby? It was all his fault for being so useless.

When Zhao Hongmei heard Ruan Ruan say this, she was actually happy. In the current situation, even city people dare not be extravagant when they get married, let alone people like them from the countryside. It's not that she didn't want to give her son a good wedding, but she had to be realistic.

The other boys in the family are all grown up and it's time for them to get married. If the eldest brother holds a grand wedding, the younger brothers will inevitably be compared, and if the disparity is too great, the new bride might cause unrest in the household.

"Ruan Ruan, I'm sorry you had to go through this."

This kind of wedding ceremony is the most suitable for the current situation, and Ruan Ruan didn't feel wronged.

"No one feels wronged; this is for the best."

After discussing the wedding arrangements, they started planning the menu for the day. Since it's currently the busy season for farming, the variety of dishes doesn't need to be extensive, but the portions must be plentiful.

"Grandpa, I've been taking my brothers up the mountain these past few days to see if we can hunt some meat."

Huo Haocheng's plan was simple: the wedding ceremony could be simple, but the food couldn't be looked down upon, and they couldn't feel that the Huo family didn't like his sister. If all else failed, he would go to the black market.

"Alright, you can handle things on your own these next few days. Eldest son's wife, you and third son's wife should go to the village and see if anyone has hens or eggs to trade, and you can trade some back too. Second son's wife, you're in town, so see if you can get some meat."

"Alright, that's all for today. Everyone, go home and take care of your own business."

The men drank a bit too much today, and after the meeting, they all went back to their rooms to sleep. The women had already gone out to find someone who needed to exchange items.

Huo Haocheng led Ruan Ruan directly back to her room. After they entered, Huo Haocheng closed the door, turned around, and hugged Ruan Ruan against the closed door. He didn't care about anything else now; he just wanted to hug his sister properly.

"Little sister, I missed you so much. Thank you for coming back."

Huo Haocheng's restraint over the past few days finally erupted at this moment. Despite his calm demeanor and confident demeanor in public, he was also very worried in private. He had all sorts of wild thoughts. He worried that Ruan Ruan might not want to come back after seeing the gap between the capital and the Red Flag Brigade, or that the Ruan family might look down on him as just a country boy and not agree to their marriage. Or what if the Ruan family introduced Ruan Ruan to a better young talent than him? Huo Haocheng would stay awake until dawn in the middle of the night.

"Brother, don't you have confidence in yourself? My brother is so handsome and manly. You don't know how many girls in the village blush when they see you?"

Ruan Ruan was held around the waist by Huo Haocheng. She looked up, smoothed Huo Haocheng's furrowed brows with both hands, and said jokingly.

"Yes, brother has always lacked confidence in front of sister. Brother doesn't know what other girls are like, brother only wants to know what sister is like. See if brother will blush too?"

Huo Haocheng held Ruan Ruan's waist with one hand and gently rubbed her hand in the other, his eyes fixed on Ruan Ruan's red lips with an aggressive gaze.

"Haocheng"

Looking at Huo Haocheng like this, Ruan Ruan softly called his name.

This is like a signal.

Huo Haocheng eagerly pressed his lips to those he had longed for. Ruan Ruan felt as if she were drawn by a powerful force, her body involuntarily moving closer to him. She responded to his passionate kiss.

Sensing Ruan Ruan's response, Huo Haocheng's breathing quickened, his eyes filled with fervor and anticipation. He pressed Ruan Ruan's head against him, drawing her close until they were inseparable. Her soft breaths brushed against his face. He longed for her, desperately wanting to possess her.

After the kiss, reason returned, and Huo Haocheng held Ruan Ruan like a doll, sitting on the edge of the bed, making Ruan Ruan face him, and burying his head deeply in Ruan Ruan's neck.

"Little sister, don't move, don't speak."

At this moment, Huo Haocheng can only say that he brought it upon himself.
