Volume 1 Chapter 130 Wedding Banquet
They were all her favorite foods, no doubt they were prepared for her by Gu Tingxiao.
This person has really prepared everything and is just waiting for me to come in.
This feeling of being always thought of by someone really makes her feel safe.
Sheng Wanyan ate two pieces of cake and had just finished drinking water when she heard a knock on the door.
She immediately ran back to the bed and sat down, being as dignified as possible.
"Third sister-in-law, I'm the eldest sister-in-law."
The person knocking on the door was Gu Tingxiao's sister-in-law, the wife of his eldest brother Gu Tingye (Liang Nazhen). Liang Nazhen had a very elegant temperament and looked like an intellectual.
Liang Nazhen works in the Education Bureau and is the section chief of the bureau.
She was holding food in her hands, which was specially left for Sheng Wanyan by Gu's mother and Gu Tingxiao.
Standing next to her was a beautiful woman, who was the wife of the fourth brother Gu Tinghao (Wang Chunmei).
She currently works in the finance department of Kyoto Textile Factory as the director of the finance department.
"Come in."
Sheng Wanyan looked at the door nervously. She didn't understand the personalities of her two sisters-in-law yet, so she could only sit and wait obediently.
Liang Nazhen and Wang Chunmei walked in. As soon as Wang Chunmei came in, she looked around and secretly looked at Sheng Wanyan.
"Third sister-in-law, come and eat something to fill your stomach."
Liang Nazhen smiled gently and put the food on the table. Sheng Wanyan quickly stood up.
"Thank you, sister-in-law."
Liang Nazhen walked forward and took her hand with a smile. She had never met this third sister-in-law before, but she had a very good impression of her so far.
She is pretty and speaks softly, so she should be easy to get along with.
"Why be so polite to sister-in-law? We are all family from now on."
"Here, this is a wedding gift from your sister-in-law. Do you like it?"
Although Liang Nazhen said it was a wedding gift, she knew it was a gift for her when she first met him.
Liang Nazhen opened the bag hanging on her arm, revealing a red dress.
The skirt was very simple, without any pattern, with a constricting string at the waist and ending just below the knees.
Although the skirt is simple and elegant, the color is very bright, and it is obvious that the material was found through connections.
Every bit of it was Liang Nazhen's thoughtfulness as the eldest sister-in-law, so Sheng Wanyan didn't act pretentiously and took it.
"It's really beautiful, thank you, sister-in-law."
Seeing that she really liked it, Liang Nazhen felt relieved. She was afraid that her third brother's wife would dislike her gift.
"As long as you like it."
"I like it. I was just looking for a simple and elegant skirt."
Liang Nazhen laughed even more happily when she heard this. Although she knew that Sheng Wanyan was giving her face, who wouldn't be happy to hear nice words?
After Wang Chunmei (fourth brother's sister-in-law) looked at the layout of the room, she took out a box of vanishing cream from her pocket with a smile.
"Third sister-in-law, I don't know what you like. Girls in Kyoto like to use this vanishing cream. Don't despise it."
Sheng Wanyan didn't say anything when she saw her scrutinizing look. As soon as Wang Chunmei came in, she began to look at the layout of the room.
She knew in her heart that she was trying to see whether the Gu family was partial to their third branch.
However, we have just started to interact, and he has not offended my bottom line, so I have to be friendly.
Sheng Wanyan took it with a smile and thanked her: "Thank you, fourth sister-in-law."
Wang Chunmei nodded. This vanishing cream is not cheap, it costs more than one yuan.
Liang Nazhen frowned when she saw that Wang Chunmei only gave her some vanishing cream. Didn’t the fourth brother tell her that his wife was planning to give her a pair of leather shoes?
How did these leather shoes turn into vanishing cream?
However, Liang Nazhen did not say much. This was her fourth brother's family affair, and she had no right to interfere in how it should be handled.
"This dressing table is so beautiful, sister-in-law, is it something your mother-in-law brought back for you?"
Wang Chunmei felt unhappy because when she got married, the Gu family did not even prepare such a good dressing table for her.
"This was someone Ting Xiao hired to beat him up."
Wang Chunmei felt even more uncomfortable when she heard this. Why wasn't her man so considerate?
"Really? That's really pretty... I'll find someone to beat one up when the time comes."
Sheng Wanyan smiled and nodded without saying anything. If she wanted to hit him, then go ahead. After all, this thing was just a piece of furniture and not her personal property.
"Hurry up and eat something to fill your stomach, my third brother will be worried if you are hungry!"
Liang Nazhen thought about how Gu Tingxiao secretly found her and asked her to prepare a meal for his new wife, and also explained that his new wife did not eat fatty meat.
I found it funny to see the anxious look on her face when she was asked to help deliver food.
She had never seen her third brother be so considerate, and his anxious look was even more surprising.
He usually has a gloomy face, and she didn't expect that she would see her third brother have any expression other than a gloomy face in this life.
When Sheng Wanyan heard her sister-in-law's joke, she blushed and sat on the stool. The bowl contained white rice and some lean meat.
There were a few pieces of ribs, fish, lean meat and spicy chicken, and a bowl of cabbage soup on the side.
"Sister-in-law, brother-in-law, would you like to eat something together?"
Wang Chunmei swallowed when she heard this. She had been helping in the kitchen and couldn't help swallowing when she saw the food.
Before people outside started eating, the first portion was brought in and given to Sheng Wanyan. She also wanted to try it.
"No, we have food outside, the most important thing is that you don't go hungry."
"Just put it on the table after you finish eating. I'll come get it later."
After Liang Nazhen finished speaking, she pulled Wang Chunmei, who was eager to make a move, out. It was not her turn to take the lead as the fourth brother's wife didn't even consider what day it was.
Sheng Wanyan raised her eyebrows after the others left. She was afraid that this fourth brother's wife might not be a person who would stay at peace in the future.
But I can't get along with her for long, so it's enough to just get along with her on the surface.
After Sheng Wanyan finished eating, she wiped her mouth and took out a book from the box to read.
The banquet outside hasn't started yet, and she might have to wait for a few hours. It would be better for her to read a book to kill time.
The Sheng family also came to the military compound. When Grandpa Gu saw them, he invited them to eat at the same table with him.
"Grandpa, come on, let me introduce you to some good fighters who have fought in wars."
As soon as Grandpa Gu saw Grandpa Sheng, he pulled him to chat with other old men. Grandpa Gu didn't understand the ways of the world, and his old friends were all old men who had fought in wars together.
These old men are straightforward and don't like to beat around the bush.
The best way to describe it is to say "say what you want to say and fart when you have to fart."
The banquet outside was lively and everyone was congratulating Gu Tingxiao for finally getting married.
Everyone looked at each other, and the look in their eyes was understood by everyone, and then they started to force him to drink as much as they could.
"Come, congratulate our old bachelor for finally getting married. Cheers!"
"Comrade Gu Tingxiao, do you have to drink three cups?"
"That's right! Drink three cups first!"
When Gu Tingxiao heard this, he drank three glasses of white wine without saying a word, and everyone immediately applauded.
"What a bold move! So refreshing!"
"How refreshing! As expected of a soldier, you are so skillful!"
PS: I wish you all a happy new year~~~
