Volume 1, Chapter 128 Getting Married! ! !
The aura on his body is neither heavy nor light, just right.
"Auntie Lin, is the food ready?"
Aunt Lin in the kitchen heard Grandma Gu's voice and immediately leaned out to answer her.
"Madam, dinner is ready."
When Grandma Gu heard this, she immediately stood up and invited them to dinner.
"Family members, please take your seats."
Mr. Gu was chatting happily with Grandpa Sheng. When he heard about eating, he didn't move a muscle. He was so engrossed in the conversation.
"I didn't expect that you had such a hard time during the war. Now the country is getting better and better."
Grandpa Gu felt a little emotional. He really missed the days of war.
"Yes, the country is developing, and people will definitely live better in the future."
"Come to eat."
Grandma Gu called out, and the two grandfathers stopped talking and came to the dining table to sit and eat.
The Gu family prepared a sumptuous meal, and Grandma Gu got up early in the morning to confirm the dishes.
The dishes included braised pork, braised fish, spicy rabbit meat, stir-fried chicken, tomato and egg, cold cucumber, white rice and cabbage and tofu soup.
There are six dishes and one soup, and so many meat dishes, which shows that the Gu family attaches great importance to it.
Grandpa Gu also took out his own collection of fine wine and had a drink with Grandpa Sheng.
"Grandpa and grandma, you're welcome."
"Father-in-law, mother-in-law, eat more Yan'er, and treat us as your own family."
Gu's mother picked up a big chicken leg for Sheng Wanyan and served everyone a bowl of soup.
"Thank you, auntie."
"Eat more and don't be polite to your aunt."
Mother Gu smiled and picked up a lot of dishes for her. The voice of the future third daughter-in-law was so soft that it melted her heart.
Gu Tingxiao picked up some rabbit legs and some better rabbit meat for her, as he knew the little girl loved this dish.
When Sheng Wanyan saw that he was about to give the rabbit leg to herself, she immediately tugged at the corner of his clothes.
The elders are all here, how can I give all the delicious food to myself?
Gu Tingxiao sensed her little action and picked up a few pieces of fatty braised pork for the four old men before stopping what he was doing.
The two families finished the meal with greetings, and the two grandfathers and Gu's father and Sheng's father drank a lot of wine.
When they were going back, Grandpa Sheng and Father Sheng were both dizzy. At the end of the day, the two grandfathers held hands, reluctant to leave.
Grandma Gu also took Grandma Sheng aside to chat and they made an appointment to go shopping together in a few days.
"Okay, okay, let's go out for a walk together then."
Grandma Sheng happily agreed. Grandpa Sheng and Father Sheng felt a little dizzy, so it was Gu Tingxiao and the guards who sent them back.

The day soon arrived, June 16th.
Today is her wedding day with Gu Tingxiao. At five o'clock in the morning, Sheng Wanyan was woken up by her mother.
As soon as they got up, Grandma Sheng began to comb her hair. Although such feudal and superstitious things were not allowed in that era, family members still had to go through the process.
"If you comb your hair thoroughly, you will live a happy and carefree life.
Comb your hair twice to stay healthy and live longer.
Combing the hair three times, the couple will grow old together. ”
…
…
Grandma Sheng uttered blessings in a eloquent voice while combing her hair from head to toe with a wooden comb.
Her hair was very smooth and straight, and Grandma Sheng combed it from beginning to end without any clogging.
Meanwhile, Gu Tingxiao in the military compound had already begun making preparations for picking up the bride.
He also had a few close friends in the compound, brothers who had grown up together, as well as his own brothers and sisters. A group of people came directly in six military vehicles to pick up the bride.
Sheng Wanyan changed into a red dress, which Grandma Sheng had specially modified and embroidered with peony flowers on the hem.
It looks unique, and the purely handmade embroidery adds elegance to the red skirt.
Sheng Wanyan braided her hair into a princess hairstyle like in later generations, which looked perfect with a red dress.
Mother Sheng cooked her a bowl of longevity noodles with a poached egg. After she finished eating, she could wait for Gu Tingxiao to come and pick her up.
The Gu family had invited a festive matchmaker early in the morning, as some procedures required the matchmaker to preside over the process.
Six military vehicles came to the small courtyard in a mighty manner. When the matchmaker saw them, she immediately started shouting towards the inside.
"The groom is here!!!"
Sheng Wanze and Pan Yue looked at each other, and Pan Yue hurriedly ran into the room to block the door. Sheng Wanze, wearing a military uniform, stood straight in front of the yard gate.
Looking at the six military vehicles, there was Gu Tingxiao standing in the middle, and the five brothers who were coming to pick up the bride.
I sneered in my heart, are you trying to snatch people away by outnumbering them?
Gu Tingxiao likes to do some small moves when others are not prepared.
That little thought is more important than anything else.
Gu Tingxiao was wearing a military uniform, military boots, and a big red flower on his chest.
The neighbors next door came out to join in the fun, and Gu Tingxiao's brothers were very tactful and took out the candies to share with everyone.
"Everyone eats candy and celebrates together."
Children from the surrounding neighborhood came running over to get candy, and each got five or six pieces. They were very satisfied if they could get just one piece a month.
"Wow!!! I have five candies!"
"I have six!"
"Grandma, look at all the candies I have!"
The children began to show off to their friends and counted to see who got more candies.
"Brother-in-law, we are here to pick up the bride!"
Gu Tinghao (Gu Tingxiao's younger brother) shouted, and Sheng Wanze looked at them with a smile without saying anything.
Seeing that he refused to give way, everyone could only take out red envelopes and stuff them in. Sheng Wanze accepted the red envelopes as usual, but still refused to give way.
Gu Tingxiao glanced at him and looked at him very seriously: "I will definitely do what I promised you."
Sheng Wanze looked at him coldly for a while before speaking.
"If you can't do this, I will do whatever it takes to take her home!"
"good."
After hearing this, Sheng Wanze made way, and Gu Tingxiao and his group finally entered the yard.
The matchmaker also announced the betrothal gift to the Sheng family one by one. When the neighbors heard it, they were shocked.
After entering the yard, there is another checkpoint, that is Pan Yue.
But Pan Yue was just doing it for show.
After receiving a few red envelopes, Gu Tingxiao was quickly let in. Sheng Wanyan's heart beat faster and faster as she listened to the sounds getting closer and closer.
Gu Tingxiao stood in front of the door and took a deep breath before pushing it open and going in.
As soon as I entered, the first thing I saw was Sheng Wanyan sitting on the bed.
She had always been the most dazzling and beautiful one, and he had imagined in his mind hundreds of times what she would look like when she married him.
But all his imaginations collapsed today. She was even more beautiful than he had imagined, dozens of times more beautiful than in his dreams.
The brothers behind took a deep breath when they saw this. They finally understood why Gu Tingxiao chose a girl from the city.
Just this face is enough.
They had never seen such a pretty and charming young girl in Kyoto.
Her temperament is better than those in the circle.
