Chapter 65 Wedding and banquet

In the blink of an eye it was noon.

Liu Mei helped Xu Yao dress up in the bedroom.

Although weddings during this period were not very elaborate, the necessary ceremonies were still required.

Xu Yao changed into her newly bought bright red polka dot skirt. When Liu Mei was helping her to put her hair up, she accidentally saw the mark on the back of her neck and her face turned red.

The hair that was originally all tied up was changed to half tied up and half let down.

There are no cosmetics at home, but Xu Yao has almond eyes, rosy cheeks, rosy lips and white teeth, and her appearance is natural. Even without makeup, she is still stunningly beautiful.

After Liu Mei helped to pluck out the stray hairs from her eyebrows, Xu Yao came in front of everyone with Ji Changyu, who was wearing a neat military uniform, amid everyone's blessings.

Before the meal started, Xu Weidong also arrived, but no one paid any attention to him.

The first part of the wedding banquet is that the bride and groom need to sing the national anthem together.

As a socialite, Xu Yao is used to being in the spotlight. Under the gaze of countless eyes, she always has an impeccable and calm smile on her face.

At this moment, Ji Changyu suddenly held her hand.

They stood in the front room. There was no sun, so Xu Yao wasn't too hot. However, Ji Zhangyu's palms were sweaty, and his hand was sticky when he held Xu Yao's.

"daughter in law."

Xu Yao looked at him in surprise.

The man's jawline was slightly tense, and his Adam's apple was sliding abnormally fast.

No way?

This man is actually nervous?

Xu Yao smiled gently and scratched his palm.

Not sure if it was because of the other person's emotions that infected her, but at this moment, Xu Yao felt the reality and urgency of her upcoming marriage.

Later, while singing the familiar national anthem, the two gradually relaxed, with gentle and happy smiles in their eyes.

After singing the national anthem, there was thunderous applause from the audience.

The two men read two passages of the great man’s highest instructions and bowed to his statue.

Bow to the elders on both sides, and then bow to each other.

Finally, salute the guests.

At this point, the process is basically complete.

The guests crowded in the house and at the door returned to their seats and waited for the meal to start.

After the meal started, Xu Yao and Ji Changyu held the drinks and toasted the guests at the three tables one by one.

By the time Xu Yao sat down to eat, there wasn't much left on the table...

Even for city dwellers, it is not possible to eat meat every now and then. In order to show her importance to her daughter-in-law, Ji's mother prepared a very decent banquet.

When other people hold wedding banquets, they usually make a little profit after deducting expenses from the gift money, but Ji's mother also added a little bit, which also led to the food being eaten very quickly.

Xu Yao didn't move her chopsticks much, just watched them eat and chat.

The person who got along best with Ji's mother was not Liu Mei, but Xu Gang.

It’s not surprising, after all, they are all ruthless people who like to throw bricks when they disagree with each other.

After the banquet, Ji Changyu pulled Xu Yao into the room and brought out fresh food like magic. Xu Yao was surprised and delighted.

"You left it? I just didn't have enough to eat."

Ji Changyu chuckled, "I know you don't like to eat other people's saliva, so I took some out of the plate before the meal started. No one has touched it yet, so eat it while it's hot."

The young wife is obviously a country girl, but she is more particular than the city people.

Clothes made of soft material are not worn, and pillowcases made of rough material are locked in the closet to collect dust.

When others used chopsticks to pick up food for her, she would smile and thank them, then turn around and put the food into their bowl when they weren't paying attention.

Sometimes, Ji Changyu even suspected that his wife was born in the wrong body and was an out-and-out capitalist lady.

Ji Changyu watched her eat for a while and then went outside to help.

The aunties helped to wash the dishes, and he had to return all the chairs, benches and borrowed pots, pans, and utensils.

After thanking the aunties who helped in the compound, Xu Yao called Xu Gang aside as only her family members were left in the house.

"Are the fish, shrimp and loaches in our river easy to catch? When you go hunting in the mountains, are the chestnuts, walnuts and other things in the mountains easy to pick?"

Xu Gang smiled and said, "I can hunt pheasants and rabbits, but when have you ever seen me catch fish? But if you want to eat fish, Qian Shengyang in the village is good at it. I have a good relationship with him. When you come back, I will ask him to catch fish for you. As for mountain products, they are probably not ripe yet. We have to wait at least another half a month."

After moving her household registration out, Xu Yao didn't have to go back to Xiahe Village to visit her parents, but Sun Yanfang and the others were counting on Ji Changyu to introduce a job to Xu Qiang, and they were afraid that they would not come back.

He discussed with the team leader and the secretary and decided to transfer the dilapidated house where Xu Yao had lived before to Xu Weidong.

It's funny to say that the original owner of the dilapidated house was named Xu, but he had no relationship with Xu Weidong's lineage, so it was not Xu Weidong's turn to inherit it.

As the saying goes, no one cares about the poor in a busy city, but the rich have distant relatives even in the mountains.

With Ji Changyu, a promising son-in-law from the village, the team leader and the secretary were willing to give them a good deal and turn the property into Xu Weidong's ancestral property.

Speaking of Qian Shengyang, he was a man with a miserable life. His mother died of complications during childbirth when giving birth to his sister. His father soon married him a stepmother. He and his sister did not have a much better life in the village than Xu Gang and his sister.

In order to satisfy his hunger, Xu Gang learned how to hunt, and he was also good at catching fish.

"Oh, it's not that I want to eat it, but someone in the compound is willing to buy it for 80 cents a pound, and she's willing to buy it for 60 cents. I came to ask if it's convenient for you to make it. If it's not convenient, I'll refuse it later."

Xu Yao thought that she could make a lot of money by collecting chickens, ducks and hair flowers, and she could make money from He Yin or not.

"With such a high price, you'd be a fool not to make money!" Xu Gang cheered up, "Reply to her later and we can help her bring it."

It's just right for him to bring his best brother along, as doing business alone always feels a bit inadequate.

Xu Yao nodded. Both her son and brother were very motivated.

Maybe in another ten years, she can become the mother/sister of the richest man?

She strolled into the next room, told He Yin that she could take some seafood with her, and was about to leave, but the latter quickly grabbed her and went into the room.

When she came back, she counted out ten yuan and stuffed it into Xu Yao's pocket, "It's a deposit. I'll refund you the extra money and pay you the extra money later."

Xu Yao frowned, "Too many, right? Aquatic products can't be kept for too long and will die easily."

"Don't worry, you can eat 10 to 20 kilograms. My family and friends will take it. If you have other meat, you can send it over."

Her husband is the head of a furniture factory and his monthly salary is considered high. If the annoying old lady Deng wasn't here, her life would be more comfortable.

Xu Yao smiled modestly, "Where else is there any meat? The country folks don't even have enough to eat themselves."

－－

Because there was going to be a wedding banquet today, Ji's mother and Ji Changyu bought a lot of delicious food at the supply and marketing cooperative, and not all of the three tables were used up.

The night before, Ji's mother asked Ji Yanyu to tell Ji Bai to come back for a good meal tonight.

So the brother and sister came back together after school and had a sumptuous meal.

The report card that Ji Bai took out dazzled everyone's eyes, forming a sharp contrast with Ji Yanyu's score.

Frustrated, she covered her ears and ran away from home.

"Yanyu." The granddaughter of the eldest uncle Qin Baojia stood at the door and waved to Ji Yanyu, "I have something important to tell you, about your sister-in-law."

——

I saw a plot where Baozi said that he didn’t like doing business. I would like to collect everyone’s opinions and see if you like it? After all, Xu Gang is going to be the heroine's pillar of support! !
