Chapter 411: Ordinary People, Ordinary Blessings
Liangyan Village.
The newlyweds got married at an auspicious time.
The wedding banquet begins.
Before the wedding procession entered the village, the people of Liangyan Village, who had heard the news, had already crowded on the roadside to watch the excitement.
When they saw more than a dozen people carrying dowry and the kind-hearted people of the Su family who gave them porridge and medicine and came to see the bride off in person, the scene immediately became extremely lively.
The Fang family was also an ordinary family. They had managed to raise funds for four or five tables, but the bride's escort sat at three. Even then, the villagers insisted on squeezing in to fill the tables. When there wasn't enough space, they brought food from their own homes and used stools to set up a table. In the end, the tables were so full that they couldn't fit in the Fang family's yard, so they had to be set up outside the door.
Any villager who spoke to the benefactor would grin for a long time.
Tianbao and others were invited to the main table with the Fang family because they were from the bride's family.
Only then did I realize that the He family had found a good match for their daughter. The two elders of the Fang family were both honest and kind people, and they only had one son.
Fang's mother almost had a difficult labor when she gave birth, which damaged her body and she never got pregnant again.
Little Mai Sui understood all these inner secrets immediately and could draw inferences from one instance. He secretly taught Bing'er, "The Fang family has few members and simple relationships. Ping'er won't have to worry about relationships with sisters-in-law after she marries in. When you have a baby in the future, it will definitely be the apple of the Fang family's eye! Marrying into such a family will reduce worries! I understand all these things now! Bing'er, if you want to get married in the future, I will personally check for you and will definitely find the best family for you!"
Bing'er was so frightened that she couldn't eat. "No, no! I won't get married. I want to follow my sister forever! I, I'm still young!"
This caused a few people nearby to laugh.
Su Anxing's eyes were full of smiles as he comforted the frightened little girl, "Don't be afraid, Bing'er. You are still young. Don't listen to Xiaomai's nonsense. There is no need to think about getting married. Just stay in the Su family. Brother An will take care of you as his own sister for the rest of his life!"
Bing'er is easy to coax, and believes everything her close friends say. She immediately smiled and said, "Thank you, Brother An!"
The young man laughed again.
The elders could not come due to custom, so the ones who came this time were the younger generations, and it was their first time attending a wedding banquet.
Farmers’ weddings are not grand, but the festive atmosphere is the same.
It was also at this time that everyone remembered that they were all of marriageable age.
Bai Yu picked up a piece of food with chopsticks and ate it slowly, winking at his fellow apprentices and grinning, "How about we make a bet to see who will be the first to get married?"
The others sneered and pointed their chopsticks at Wei Li.
Wei Li gritted his teeth and smiled as he picked apart seven or eight pairs of chopsticks. "I guess it's my aunt and the bearded uncle who will get married first."
"You can even handle this, you're amazing!"
"I don't deserve it. I won it through a battle of wits and courage with my subordinates."
After dispatching his senior brothers and sisters with ease, Wei Li tilted his head and glared at Bai Yu sinisterly, gnashing his teeth. "Junior brother, you did this on purpose, didn't you? Are you targeting me?"
Bai Yu rolled his eyes at him, a gesture only he could see. "I'm just going along with the occasion! Senior Brother, you're being petty. Why would I resort to such tricks? Since there's a rare treasure out there, there will naturally be people with good eyes who will grab it."
Then he tilted his head and raised his lips arrogantly, "I am never afraid of a challenge."
Wei Li slapped him on the head and rubbed it hard.
The two people's chopsticks fought at the table, and in the end no one was full.
Even so, it didn't affect my mood.
Because it is so difficult to be together, we should cherish every moment.
After the bride is sent to the bridal chamber, the groom comes out to entertain the guests and toasts everyone at the table.
Tianbao also drank a glass. After drinking the wine, he looked no different, except that his jade-white cheeks were red, which did not fade for a long time.
After the banquet, the group headed back to the He family. As soon as they left the village, Bai Yu approached Tianbao and looked up and down at her face.
After a moment, he stretched out two fingers and said, "Tianbao, look, how many fingers are there?"
Tianbao, "Two."
"You read it wrong, it's three. If you don't believe me, ask a few brothers!"
Tianbao raised her eyes slowly, her gaze focused, and in front of her was the serious face of the young man.
The corners of her lips curled up, and she took the small whip that Wheat Ear was pinned to her waist with her backhand. "Senior Sister, I just drank a glass of wine, and you really thought I was drunk and was trying to trick me. Are you committing an insubordination?"
Bai Yu looked at the whip, heartbroken, "Why are we, fellow disciples, killing each other? Senior Sister, please talk it over, don't use violence!"
"I remember you whipped me six times when I was little."
“…”
Bai Yu was about to run away.
A hand appeared from behind and firmly grabbed the back of his collar. The man said in a low voice with a smile, "Senior sister, I will help you."
The others burst into laughter, hoping for chaos. "Tianbao, back then Bai Yu was spinning around and poking you. He had a great time doing that, hahaha!"
"You bunch of brats, just wait, there will be a time when you will be left with no tears left!" Bai Yu quickly took off his outer robe and deftly escaped like a cicada.
Tian Bao chased after him with a smile, not using a whip, but poking the young man with the handle, following him with ease, making it impossible for him to escape. "Junior brother, first, you should perform a show where you shout to the heavens and the earth, but nothing will happen."
Bai Yu, "Help! Senior Sister, stop poking me, it's itchy! I'm only wearing my underwear! How dare you, a grown woman, chase me!"
"You talk too much!"
There was laughter all around.
Su Wu laughed so hard that he couldn't move. "I bet Tian Bao is really drunk, otherwise he wouldn't be talking so much. One drink and you're down, hahaha!"
"Shut up and keep your voice down, or you might get whipped!"
"You're so brave! They ran over there. It's so far away, what can you hear?"
"Wei Li, what are you thinking about? Why are you smiling so coldly?"
"I was wondering how many years I have known Senior Sister."
"Is that even worth thinking about? Seventeen years! When we first met, Tianbao was barely a month old!"
Wei Li had a smile on his face and lowered his eyes to hide the loneliness in them.
Yes, seventeen years.
He was the first one to meet Tianbao.
But some things are never based on first come first served.
Like the moon in the sky, he had clearly been comforted by the moonlight, but in the end he could only watch the moon fall into someone else's hands.
And he can only let it go with himself.
Wei Li raised his eyes and looked at the two figures in the distance on the horizon. The young man was screaming because he was poked.
It seems like a violent and quarrelsome scene, but it is actually a harmonious one that no one else can interfere with.
He raised his lips and snorted, then raised his voice, "Senior Sister, don't show mercy. A gentleman's revenge is never too late, even after sixteen years!"
Bai Yu, “…” Damn.
This guy is just settling personal grudges!
The banquet at the Fang family is over.
The bride's red veil was lifted.
Without the veil blocking her view, He Luping could see the scene in the bridal chamber clearly.
The room was not very big. Apart from the simple furniture, the space was almost completely occupied by the dowry.
A total of twelve loads.
She stood up in shock, walked over, and opened the dowry. The sight was dazzling.
Makeup boxes, cabinets, camphorwood boxes, money boxes, treasure barrels for descendants, red rulers, vases, copper plates, bright red mandarin duck wedding quilts, fine cotton cloth, silver and jade head ornaments, land deeds...
There were also ginseng, jade daggers, silver ingots that my cousin, Xiao Maisui and Bing'er added to their makeup, and a pair of jade ruyi that the last distinguished guest added.
For ordinary people, these are things they would never dare to dream of having in their entire lives.
Her cousins gave her a magnificent wedding.
He Luping looked at the dowry and her makeup was smudged by tears.
The young man from the Fang family stood beside her and took out a booklet from his bosom and handed it to her. "This is the dowry list. Ping, Ping'er, after you count it, I'll put my fingerprint on it. Don't worry, everything you brought is yours. The Fang family will definitely not take a single cent from you."
He Luping looked up at him, a smile on her lips. "My mother said that marriage between two families is a lifelong bond. We should support each other through thick and thin, never leaving each other, and never be separated. These dowries are both my confidence and the guarantee for our future life without worries. I only hope that we can grow old together and share the same heart."
The Fang family boy said seriously, "I will never let you down!"
The newlyweds smiled at each other, their eyes full of longing for the future.
I don’t ask for great wealth and honor, but I ask for a harmonious relationship between husband and wife.
Ordinary people, ordinary blessings.
That’s enough.
