Chapter 16: Marriage (I)



I have regarded this place where I have stayed for two months as my home in this world. Now that I am leaving home, the sadness at this moment flows like tears.

Grandma said: "Don't cry now. It won't look good for the bride to have swollen eyes from crying on this day."

Song Jiayu: "Grandma, please go and help me persuade my mother to stop crying. I want to cry too when I see her crying."

Great-grandmother shook her head: "That won't work. She is your mother today, and she has to cry for her wedding. You can't not cry today."

Song Jiayu: "How can you be partial to me~"

Grandma Zhao was about to enter the house. "Don't cry. If you have to cry, cry inside. What's wrong? Are you afraid that Jiayu will see you and feel embarrassed?"

Zhao Qiuqin: ——

Song Jiayu could even feel her mother's embarrassment at the moment.

"Don't block the way at the door. Jiayu's hair is done, she's changed into her bridal outfit, and she has red socks. As her mother, why don't you take them away quickly?"

Zhao Qiuqin obviously inherited her sharp tongue from her grandmother. She knew that there was always someone better than her, so she silently took out the wedding dress and the pair of red socks.

The upper part of the body is in the style of a gown, which is different from the shirts that people like to wear nowadays. The two buttons with the word "Fu" are Zhao Qiuqin's best treasures. The lower part was originally intended to be made into a skirt, but was stopped by Song Jiayu. An ordinary red skirt is not good-looking, and it would waste too much fabric to make wrinkles. If you really want to make a beautiful new wedding dress, it is not a good thing to be too conspicuous in this era.

They had no choice but to make pants. With Zhao Qiuqin's clever hands, she turned the remaining red cloth into two red silk flowers, which she pinned on both sides of Song Jiayu's hair.

The second house is bustling with activity, and the first house is not bad either.

Someone from Wei Meihua's parents' home also came.

As the protagonist of today, Song Xiulan put on a red wedding dress, her face was more beautiful than flowers, and she was surrounded by her little cousin from the Wei family.

My eldest cousin: "Sister Xiulan, you look so beautiful today~"

Second cousin: "Sister, how can the bride not be beautiful? But Sister Xiulan is definitely the most beautiful among the brides."

Third cousin: "We can't find the captain's son for our wedding. Sister Xiulan, can you lend me your wedding dress on my wedding day?"

The Wei family's conditions were not good, and the three sisters didn't know who they would marry in the future. It would be great if they could borrow a wedding dress like this. The eldest and second cousins also agreed: "Yes, yes, let us also share in cousin Xiulan's happiness, and have a baby soon, so that our family can be complete and happy."

Song Xiulan raised the corner of her mouth and agreed generously, "Okay, come to me when you get married, and I'll lend it to you."

Today, the Song family set up three tables for a banquet. They killed a chicken and a duck respectively, and exchanged one pound and five ounces of meat coupons from the village. They bought one and a half pounds of fat and lean meat, which they paired with vegetables from the backyard garden. They also made tofu with aged soybeans, and fried, stewed or roasted them. There were six dishes on each table, which meant good luck.

The dishes on each table were well prepared. The relatives from the Song family who came to congratulate today sat at the table, drinking, eating and bragging, while the children ran around and went into the side rooms to see the bride.

Many children from the village also came to the outside of Old Song’s courtyard. They all came to pick up wedding candies and were also gods of good news.

"Here he comes, the groom is here."

Along with the voices of the children outside, the sounds of gongs, drums and trumpets came from far away.

Zhao Qiuqin asked Song Beiwang to go and take a look. When she found out that it was not her son-in-law, she breathed a sigh of relief and went outside to congratulate him. She also watched Song Xiulan get married with her own eyes.

"Wedding candy! Wedding candy!"

"Haha, I got some wedding candy!"

"Groom, today you are marrying back the jewels of our Song family. Please cherish them!"

“…”

The scene was noisy and everyone had a smile on their face. When Sun Changlei personally carried Song Xiulan out of the house, the noise became even louder.

The sounds of gongs, drums and trumpets seemed to be enough to blow the roof off.

The Sun family members who came with them went into the house and moved out the bride's things, which was a big box. Big Brother Sun was not in a good mood. Why was this big box so light?

Song Xiulan was placed on an ox cart, and the surrounding children were praising her. Sun Changlei was also happy to hear that. He grabbed two handfuls of wedding candies and scattered them on the ground. The children in the village rushed over to pick up the candies. Those who picked up some would smile with their missing teeth, while those who didn't pick up any would follow the ox cart, preparing to go to the team leader's house to ask for candies.

The walking big yellow cow is not only washed very clean, but also has a big red flower on its body, making it walk very proudly.

They arrived at the captain's house with a lot of noise and fun, and the captain's house was also very lively at this time.

"Here comes the bride."

"Oh, this is so handsome."

"Osmanthus, your second son must marry a beautiful wife and bring her home. The baby he will have in the future must look like the one in the New Year pictures."

No matter how dissatisfied the captain's wife was with Song Xiulan in her heart, she kept smiling all day and kept saying nice things to her.

Sun Changlei still carried Song Xiulan into the house and put her on the kang after entering the new house. He also carried the box into the room with his own hands. It was unexpectedly light. He didn't think much about it, just said a few words to Xiulan and went outside to entertain the guests.

When it was night, he saw that there were not many things in the box except some of Xiulan's clothes. He was stunned for a moment and didn't say much.

The daughter-in-law under the light was the woman Sun Changlei had liked for three years. He put everything behind him, savored the taste of the delicate flower, and spent a wonderful night.

Time goes back to the afternoon at the old Song family's house. Song Xiulan got married, and the house became less lively. Now only Song Jiayu is left.

The county was far away, and Zhao Qiuqin walked back and forth in the room, unable to help but worry that her son-in-law and his family would not get into trouble on the way.

Suddenly, the sound of car horns and the sound of tires pressing on the ground were heard in the village, which attracted the attention of the villagers. It was the first time that they saw an iron lump in the village.

The sound was getting closer and closer to the Song family's house. The people in the yard couldn't sit still anymore. They all went out of the gate and saw the small truck with people from the Jiang family getting off to pick up the bride.

The village children, unafraid of the four-wheeled vehicle, gathered around it, shouting, "Big truck! Big truck! Wow!"

Jiang Baizhou was wearing a navy blue Zhongshan suit and had a handsome appearance, which made the three sisters of the Wei family blush for a moment.

With such a big ceremony of distributing candies and cigarettes, both the Wei and Zhao families in Old Song's family were willing to communicate with the son-in-law.

After a busy period, Jiang Baizhou was finally able to enter his wife's room with the help of his uncle and two older brothers. The first thing he saw was Song Jiayu sitting on the kang and waiting obediently.

Song Jiayu, with her face as rosy as a peach and her smile as sweet as lotus, was charming and lovely. At this moment, she was imprinted in Jiang Baizhou's silent heart again.

"The groom must be stunned by the bride!" Someone joked.
