Upon arriving at the main dining hall, everyone helped to combine the tables together. Since the rectangular tables couldn't seat many people, two rectangular tables were combined into one large table, which then counted as one table.
Afterwards, everyone brought the dishes that Wenxi had prepared to the table. Wang Xinru looked at so many dishes and couldn't help but rub her hands together, feeling very happy at the thought of being able to eat soon.
Watching Tian Shengnan help serve the dishes, Gu Huai'an glanced at her quickly before looking away, so quickly that no one noticed, just as no one knew that he liked Tian Shengnan.
Now that things have come to this point, these things can only be kept deep in our hearts, otherwise they will have a negative impact on Tian Shengnan.
Seeing that everyone had arranged the banquet, Gu Huai'an and Xu Mengying came to the door of the large canteen and stood there to welcome the village officials and the villagers who came to attend the wedding.
With everyone as witnesses, Gu Huai'an and Xu Mengying exchanged vows, and then the ceremony was complete. The banquet began, and everyone sat down to eat.
Those who weren't invited to the wedding later regretted it when they heard how lavish the banquet was. They wished they had married their daughters to Gu Huai'an before Xu Mengying arrived, knowing his family was so well-off. That way, even if Xu Mengying had gone to the countryside, it would have been fine. But Gu Huai'an was already married, and Xu Mengying couldn't very well be so shameless as to ruin their marriage, could she?
It's too late to say anything now, because Gu Huai'an and Xu Mengying are already married.
Xia Minglei and Lu Xiaoyun are living examples. They dare not let their daughters get involved with Gu Huai'an, no matter how good Gu Huai'an's conditions are. So they should just live their lives honestly!
Tian Xiaoke didn't come today because she had just had a miscarriage and was resting in her thatched hut.
Liang Zhaodi didn't come either. Lu Xiaoyun's incident didn't actually have much of an impact on her because she didn't love Lu Xiaoyun. However, Xia Minglei's subsequent accident caused Liang Zhaodi's mental state to collapse, because she was hoping that Xia Minglei would take her back to the city with him!
Now both men are gone, and she has no hope of returning to the city.
However, she quickly cheered up because Lu Xiaoyun's family was well-off, and she and Lu Xiaoyun had a daughter. In the future, when the opportunity arose, she would take her daughter to the Lu family to inherit their property. Even if there was no property for her daughter to inherit, she could still have her daughter recognized as the eldest daughter of the Lu family and find a husband of equal social standing. Then, she, as the mother, could live a good life by virtue of her daughter's status.
So Liang Zhaodi took her daughter from the old lady's house. She wanted to take care of her daughter herself and cultivate a relationship with her so that her daughter would have a deep affection for her and wouldn't abandon her in the future.
However, Liang Zhaodi had little experience in taking care of children, so she called the old lady over and asked her to take care of her daughter at her home, right under her nose.
She had the two thousand yuan that Xia Minglei had compensated her, and she also found some money in Lu Xiaoyun's luggage, which was enough to support them to live a good life.
Now, she just needs to wait for good news.
Thinking about how Tian Xiaoke caused Xia Minglei's miscarriage, Liang Zhaodi felt that Tian Xiaoke was too foolish. If she had given birth to Xia Minglei's child and brought the child back to the Xia family to be recognized as a member of the clan, wouldn't everything have been hers?
While eating, Yang Li secretly observed Gu Huai'an. She could tell from today's banquet how wealthy he and his family were, but she didn't dare to flirt with Gu Huai'an right now.
Although it's true that no man in this world is immune to infidelity, and many men will have affairs, she probably could easily seduce Gu Huai'an, but having just gone through what happened with Xia Minglei and Lu Xiaoyun, and with Xu Mengying acting like a pampered young lady, she dared not flirt with Gu Huai'an. Otherwise, Xu Mengying would definitely make a big fuss, and she would be in danger.
She still has Gu Ningzhi now, and she'll replace him with someone else after she's drained Gu Ningzhi dry.
Jiang Yue's younger brother also came to the wedding banquet with the new educated youth. Jiang Yang did not look for Jiang Yue because he was afraid that Jiang Yue would ask him for money. Jiang Yue did not even glance at him.
Gu Huai'an and Xu Mengying's wedding banquet today was very beautiful. Even though Gu Huai'an didn't like Xu Mengying, he was so excited that his face was beaming.
After the wedding banquet, Xu Mengying was asked to give a red envelope to Wen Xi to thank her for helping with the cooking and making the wedding banquet beautiful.
Wen Xi declined several times, but ultimately didn't accept the gift because she didn't want to give Xu Mengying any ammunition. She didn't have a very good impression of Xu Mengying and wanted to avoid contact with her if possible.
After everyone had left the large canteen, Wenxi checked it over, locked the door, and left. The three of them went to the village office to return the canteen key and then went to Captain Qian to apply for leave to visit their families and get the letter of introduction ready.
Captain Qian gave them three letters of introduction, and they were allowed to fill in the dates themselves, as long as they returned on time.
Although Xu Mengying and Gu Huai'an registered their marriage yesterday, she only moved to Gu Huai'an's place today for her wedding. From now on, she will live in Gu Huai'an's room, and no one can say anything about it. She will also no longer have to cook with Cheng Yu from the educated youth settlement.
Now that she and Xia Minglei are no longer there, Cheng Yu can cook with Tian Xiaoke. However, Tian Xiaoke just had a miscarriage and needs to rest for a while, so Cheng Yu will have to cook a few meals by herself.
That night, after lying down, Xu Mengying excitedly said to Gu Huai'an beside her, "Brother Huai'an, from today onwards, I will officially live with you."
"Hmm," Gu Huai'an replied absentmindedly.
"Brother Huai'an, tonight is our wedding night, I won't leave you with any regrets..." Xu Mengying smiled and leaned closer to Gu Huai'an...
After Wenxi finished teaching Zhao Yuanyuan and Zhao Huihui, she went back to her room to rest after they left.
Winter days are short and dark, so even though it's not very late now, it feels like the dead of night. Wenxi lay on the bed, not closing her eyes to rest, but staring at the ceiling.
Many things were on her mind. She thought of He Chen'an, then of Qin Mi in the mission world, and then of her family. She was excited to be able to go home and see her loved ones soon. But then she felt a sense of trepidation as she approached home.
I don't know how Wenrou wronged her in front of her family during that year, nor do I know whether her family will accept her explanation after she goes back.
She really didn't understand why Wenrou was treating her like this; weren't they sisters?
Thinking of Xiao Shizhan and his adopted sister, Wenxi suddenly widened her eyes. Could it be that one of her and Wenrou was not her biological child, which was why Wenrou wanted to get rid of her?
