Cheng Maixiang time-traveled into a historical novel.
On her wedding night, her groom deceived her into lying with a stranger on a kang.
The groom mistreated her because she was soft-he...
No, to be precise, it should be happier and cooler than driving a sports car. The shouts of joy coming from behind her, the happy cries of children, and the laughter of passers-by who stopped to watch, Cheng Maixiang truly felt the happiness and joy of being married.
The entire convoy traveled around the county for more than two hours before returning to Shuangshui Village. The children in the convoy were shouting, as if they had not just gone to the county town for a trip, but had returned victoriously, which also attracted the young people on bicycles to join in.
Shuangshui Village had not had such a lively wedding for many years, which attracted the whole village to come out to watch the fun and talk about it. What Cheng Maixiang did not expect was that her wedding would become a benchmark for girls' marriages in the village and even the entire commune, and everyone learned from her.
When they arrived outside the Cheng family's door, everyone got off the car and parked their bicycles. The eldest and second brothers of the Cheng family immediately invited everyone to their yard for dinner.
This time, Cheng's mother arranged the banquet at her own home, Cheng's eldest brother's home, and Cheng's second brother's home. All the villagers who came to congratulate could choose any of their homes to attend the banquet.
Originally, Lin Jiayu planned to pay for the entire banquet this time. After all, there was no banquet arranged in the city, which saved a lot of trouble. He naturally would not save money here, but Cheng's mother and Cheng's elder brother firmly disagreed. The two sides argued for a long time before finally deciding that each family would pay for half of the banquet.
Although some people saw that the Cheng family had a lot of delicious dishes at the wedding banquet, they took advantage of the crowds to come and eat for free, but most of the people who came were there to bring gifts. Lin Jiayu had agreed with Cheng's mother in advance that he would not accept any of these gifts, and the money would belong to the family where the gift-givers ate.
When Lin Jiayu and Cheng Maixiang returned to Cheng's mother's house, they saw more than a dozen tables set up in the yard, all filled with dishes. There were also two tables set up in the main hall, all filled with guests who came to congratulate them. As soon as they saw the two of them, they all said congratulations.
Mother Cheng was busy directing Shen Qingyun's wife and Aunt Liu to serve the dishes. Seeing them come back, she hurriedly said, "You two should sit down and eat quickly. We have to drink with the guests later."
The two men saw a few empty seats at a table in the main hall and knew they were reserved for them. Just as they were about to go over, Cheng's mother said with a smile, "Not long after you left, Secretary Li from the commune also came. He dropped off a gift and was about to leave, but your eldest brother stopped him. He's drinking over there."
Cheng Maixiang smiled. Secretary Li had never been very enthusiastic about Shuangshui Village. After all, Shuangshui Village's performance in the commune had always been better than the average. But ever since the Shuangshui Village Garment Workshop was rated as an advanced collective in the city and became a star in Linwen County, Secretary Li suddenly became enthusiastic about Cheng Maiqing. He frequently asked him to go to the commune to discuss work, and even came to give her a gift on her wedding day. His intentions were self-evident.
Mother Cheng turned to Aunt Liu and said, "Sister, I'll leave this place to you and Xiao Tang for the time being. I'm going to go to the second brother's house to look after them. Those two are not the same as the eldest brother's family. They are a real worry."
Aunt Liu and Shen Qingyun's wife naturally knew the moral character of Brother Cheng and Sister Cheng. Although they were the host family, they probably forgot to entertain the guests when they saw the delicious food. They smiled and said, "You can go ahead. Don't worry about this place. We will keep it well taken care of for you."
Cheng Maixiang and Lin Jiayu sat down at the banquet, and Zhou Minqi followed them and sat down next to them. Lin Jiayu didn't see Ruan Peiling, so he asked casually. Zhou Minqi said with a sullen face, "Huh, she was dragged to the eldest brother of the Cheng family's house by those two little girls a long time ago."
