Amid cheers, Lu Zhengjun and Su Yueya got into the car.

At the family compound, the people Bai Xiuhui had hired had already prepared a banquet and were just waiting for the newlyweds to arrive.

The wedding ceremony was very simple.

The guests arrived with their blessings, sat down at the banquet table, and went through the formalities.

First, Lu Zhengjun gave a speech, followed by Lu Anguo's speech.

Then, amidst cheers, the feast finally began!

They were all from the military, so they naturally understood why Lu Zhengjun wanted to hold the event at home instead of at a hotel.

However, the dishes are just as good as those in hotels!

"I see that today's banquet is full of fancy dishes, it must have cost a lot of money. The food at my sister's wedding last time, which was held at a big hotel, was not as good as this one!"

"When the emperor welcomes his new wife, even if the ceremony isn't grand, the food will definitely be top-notch!"

"You guys keep chatting, I need to eat first!"

"Look at you, so pathetic, like you haven't eaten meat in eight lifetimes. Is it really that bad? The food in our army mess hall isn't bad at all!"

"Tch, you're the one talking? Then don't try to steal it!"

"Why shouldn't I grab it? If I don't, it'll all end up in your grandson's belly!"

Most of the people who came were acquaintances, and they knew each other well.

Everyone enjoyed the meal.

While they were happy, they discussed how to get Lu Zhengjun drunk today.

"I've never seen him drunk before. Guys, we have to stick together today and see what Zhengjun is like when he's drunk!"

"What are you doing on such a joyous day... Come, I'll be the first to offer my respects to the Emperor!"

Looking at the cheerful atmosphere of the large house, Lu Anguo and Bai Xiuhui were overjoyed.

They liked and were very satisfied with their daughter-in-law, Su Yueya.

Zhao Huijuan's son, Chen Xiaoan, was exceptionally well-behaved today.

"Wishing Uncle and Aunt a happy marriage and a long and happy life together."

Ever since Zhao Huijuan said that all the delicious vegetables in the house were given by Aunt Su, Chen Xiaoan has taken a liking to her and would come over to say auspicious words to them.

"Xiao'an is so good, here's a red envelope for you."

Su Yueya touched Chen Xiaoan's face. This naughty child had indeed lost some weight since he stopped pestering her for meat, but he looked healthier and cuter.

What will her and her husband's child be like?

If you're as cute as Chen Xiaoan, you can return it.

"Thank you, Auntie!"

After receiving the red envelope, Chen Xiaoan obediently returned to the table to eat.

He found that every dish was delicious today, and he didn't need the adults to urge him at all. He knelt on the stool and directed the adults to put this on his plate and that on his plate. He was very proactive.

Everyone was eating and drinking, having a great time.

It was lunchtime, and many families in the residential compound were eating.

Some of those who ate early have finished eating and are now out for a walk.

Zhang Cuihua was one of them.

She felt that her health was not very good lately, so every day after meals she would take a walk in the courtyard, which would help her digest and also serve as exercise.

Since she was just sitting at home anyway, she didn't want to turn on the TV, afraid of wasting electricity.

There's not much work to do, so I might as well take a walk.

As they wandered around, they heard noises not far away, like a family holding a banquet.

There are quite a few people living in the family compound, but not everyone is someone I know.

Curious, Zhang Cuihua walked towards the lively area.

When she met other people on the street, she wasn't shy at all and would just grab them and ask them questions.

"Is there some kind of happy occasion in the courtyard today? I heard it's quite lively over there!"

Those who live in the family compound all have family members in the military, so even if they don't know each other, they are all very polite to each other, and it is common for them to chat for a while when they meet.

"It looks like a wedding; the festivities have been going on all morning!"

"Getting married..." Zhang Cuihua's eyes showed a longing expression.

She's quite old, and it's not that she longs to get married, but rather that she longs to have a daughter-in-law!

My son said that he's currently dating the brigade commander's daughter and that he's going to marry her in the future. That would truly free him from his peasant background, and he'd climb higher and higher in the future.

When my own son gets married, it has to be even more spectacular than this!

"Marriage is great! After marriage, the man can focus on his work in the army, and the woman can take charge of the household. Isn't that wonderful?" Zhang Cuihua said sincerely.

"That's right, I heard that a regimental commander is getting married today."

"Oh, it's the commander!"

Zhang Cuihua didn't understand much about things in the military, but under Liu Dekai's influence, she began to understand a little bit.

At least the regimental commander is superior to the battalion commander; she understands that.

My own son is still a deputy battalion commander, several steps away from the regimental commander!

But it doesn't matter. Her son is so young and he's already a deputy battalion commander. Plus, the brigade commander values ​​him. It's only a matter of time before he gets promoted to regimental commander.

When my son becomes a regimental commander, he will definitely be more powerful than the regimental commander who is getting married today!

"Yes, but I don't think it's a very big event. I guess they're keeping a low profile!"

After chatting for a few more minutes, the aunt left.

Zhang Cuihua continued her walk, unconsciously drifting in that direction.

Thinking that it would be good to share in the joy would be nice.

If she were to be blessed with good fortune, her health might improve!

At this banquet, some guests have finished eating but have other things to do, so they have to leave first.

As the hosts, Lu Zhengjun and Su Yueya naturally had to see the guests off.

"Zhao Yunshan, stop fooling around. I'll drink with you slowly later." Despite being forced to drink a lot, Lu Zhengjun seemed perfectly fine, speaking clearly and even managing to stand up and see her guest to the door.

"Okay, you take Chen Qiang and Sun Zili away first, I'll wait for you here!" Zhao Yunshan slurred his words.

After seeing the person to the door, the group chatted with Lu Zhengjun for a while longer.

It's nothing more than wishing him a happy marriage, urging him to have a healthy baby boy soon, and praising his sister-in-law for being beautiful, sensible, and capable.

"Alright, there are still people waiting to get you drunk inside. If I didn't have something to do today, I wouldn't be able to leave either!" Sun Zili said, patting Lu Zhengjun on the shoulder. They were brothers who grew up together, and their relationship was no less distant than that of Zhao Yunshan.

"Drive carefully," Lu Zhengjun said.

"Alright, go in now."

Lu Zhengjun and Su Yueya didn't leave; they stood outside and watched the guests depart.

Just then, Zhang Cuihua walked by, very close to Lu Zhengjun's house.

Hoping to share in the joy, she craned her neck to look in this direction—

At a glance, one could see Su Yueya standing next to Lu Zhengjun!

Isn't that the woman in the green dress from that day?

Zhang Cuihua was shocked, and her heart started racing.

She swallowed hard, making sure they couldn't see her, so she didn't rush to run. Instead, she stood still and stared intently at the woman in the bright red wedding dress.

As he looked at her, he mentally compared this woman to Su Yueya.

How can they look so alike?

How can they look so alike?!

Especially since Su Yueya was wearing a bright red wedding dress, which looked very similar to what she wore when she and Liu Dekai got married.
