Chapter 53 A One-Dollar Bet



The news that Yan Xiao held his wife tightly the entire time and walked around the village quickly spread throughout the village.

Originally, I thought that Yan Xiao's three turns and one sound, plus a dowry of 199 yuan and six bicycles to pick up the bride, was already amazing enough.

As it turned out, Wen Qinghe's dowry was equally astonishing.

Six cotton quilts, six washbasins, six sets of clothes for the man, and two large suitcases.

Their wedding raised the bar for weddings in the surrounding villages.

Originally, only respectable families could afford the "three turns and one sound" (a traditional Chinese house, a sewing machine, a radio, and a watch), while ordinary families might not be able to afford it even with a huge financial burden.

That's great, now there are six more bicycles for the wedding procession.

Wen Qinghe's dowry also made many women whose daughters were about to get married extremely envious.

But Wen Qinghe was an educated youth from the city, so she could only joke around with the in-laws she had agreed to marry, saying that they were all rural people and didn't care about such things.

...

Yan Xiao carefully carried his wife to their bridal chamber.

The bridal chamber is the same room where Wen Qinghe slept before.

However, the atmosphere in the room is very festive today.

The bed sheets and duvet covers were all from a bright red four-piece bedding set that Wen Qinghe had taken out.

On the dresser on the bed were six wedding quilts and two leather suitcases that Wen Qinghe had brought.

Six wedding basins were stacked on the washbasin stand.

The table by the window was filled with red plates of five-colored fruits.

Large red paper cutouts of the character for "happiness" were also pasted on the wardrobe and the headboard.

All the items in the new house were tied with red ribbons into pretty bows.

The room was decorated by Yan Xiao, and it can be said that he put a lot of thought into it.

Yan Xiao sat down on the edge of the bed with the little girl in his arms. Now that they were in a space with only the two of them, he had time to take a closer look at her.

The moment the door opened today, the little girl stood there gracefully in a red dress, and the world seemed to split in two.

His world revolved around her; no one else could ever enter it.

Looking at the beautiful woman in his arms, with her delicate eyebrows, small nose, and lips as moist as tender cherries, he felt a sense of peace and joy.

A deep, lustful glint appeared in the man's dark eyes, followed by a low, husky voice.

"Qingqing...you're finally my wife..."

Just as Yan Xiao couldn't help but lower his head and touch those sweet-smelling lips, he was suddenly interrupted by a knock on the door.

"Knock knock knock"

"Brother Yan! Brother Yan! What are you doing in your room in broad daylight? Come out and offer a toast, hurry up!"

Xu Xian's voice came through.

The snack that was about to be eaten was interrupted, and Yan Xiao gritted his teeth.

He placed the little girl on the bed and spoke gently.

"Qingqing, sit and wait for me. I'll be right there. I'll ask Tang Zhiqing to come and keep you company."

Wen Qinghe chuckled to herself as she recalled the beautiful moment that had just been interrupted.

"Okay, go ahead and go!"

Seeing Yan Xiao looking back at her every few steps, she couldn't help but beckon to the man with her finger. Upon seeing this, Yan Xiao immediately came over obediently like a clingy puppy.

Wen Qinghe gestured for him to bend down, and the man's eyes lit up. He obediently bent down and bowed.

really.

The next second, a sweet-smelling kiss landed on the corner of his lips.

Yan Xiao's previous gloom vanished, and his mood immediately brightened.

Only then did he leave, completely satisfied.

However, the person who interrupted his good time can forget about getting married in the future!

Even if he does, he'll still ruin it!

Xu Xian, who had just knocked on the door, suddenly felt a cold wind blow in and shivered.

He smugly told his buddies, "I told you I wasn't afraid! Give me the money! What a bunch of cowards!"

As a result, Hei Zi and the other brothers looked at him with pity.

"What the hell are you looking at? Don't try to fool me, hurry up and give me the money!"

"How much money?"

Xu Xian, confused by the voice, asked, "Didn't we agree on one yuan?"

I realized something was wrong as soon as I said it; that voice was…

Brother Yan!!!

His smug expression vanished instantly, and he turned away with a bitter look on his face.

"Hehe, Brother Yan... I didn't mean to interrupt your good time, I was just joking around with the brothers~"

After saying that, he looked at Yan Xiao's expressionless face. Although he was usually like that, his eyes were particularly frightening today.

His legs trembled. "Brother Yan, I was wrong... Please don't be angry. I promise, it won't happen again..."

He glanced at the onlookers nearby, secretly grumbling that they hadn't given him a heads-up.

Unexpectedly, Yan Xiao suddenly chuckled, his smile "friendly" as he spoke:

"Heh, I'm not angry. We're all brothers."

After saying that, he even patted the dust off Xu Xian's shoulder.

Xu Xian was flattered for a moment. He knew that his brother Yan was not such a petty person.

He was making a big fuss just now; he was almost scared to death.

Knowing that Brother Yan wasn't angry, he was happy to reach out and pat the man's shoulder, but the man dodged to the side.

He patted the man's arm ingratiatingly, "Hehe, Brother Yan, I'll give you all the money I bet~"

Yan Xiao: ………

He dared to bring it up again!

Hei Zi and the others couldn't bear to watch; Xu Xian was truly an idiot.

Interrupting someone's intimate moment with their wife, do you really think Brother Yan isn't angry?

Sometimes, a smile hiding a knife is more frightening than a direct stab.

What's more, this is Yan Xiao!

That's why they say Xu Xianyong is so brave!

They all silently lit candles for him in their hearts.

...

The banquet for Yan Xiao's wedding this time included six meat dishes, three vegetable dishes, and one soup.

Ten dishes symbolize perfection.

This was a real treat for everyone who had been working so hard and rarely had any meat.
