Chapter 352 Dusk Wedding Banquet
Wang Defa's face was filled with fear, cold sweat was pouring down his face, and his body was twisting violently, as if he wanted to say something.
The wife subconsciously wanted to step forward, but then she thought of what Jiang Xu had just said and froze in place.
Originally, she just thought her husband had a bad temper, but she never thought that he could even harm such a young child!
The guests looked indifferent.
No one in the audience stepped forward. Wang Defa gradually could not bear the severe pain and his eyes turned black and he passed out.
Jiang Xu curled his lips and sneered, "That's what they call, you reap what you sow."
After a while, the police who received the news arrived and took Wang Defa away.
When he woke up, he was surprised to see that Wang Defa had become mute.
But when I thought about it more carefully, I understood it instantly.
You have done so many evil things that you didn't even spare such a young child. Now the ghost has come to seek revenge!
Now you know how awesome it is!
However, even though Wang Defa is speechless now, his self-exposure on the show just now is enough to convict him.
The guests walked out of the paper-making shop.
Zhao Xin clapped his hands and said lightly, "It's solved."
He turned to look at Jiang Xu: "Master Jiang, what should we do next... go home?"
Jiang Yu thought of Wang Defa's frightened reaction just now and always felt that something was wrong.
Was it Zhou Qing who did it?
Those who often see ghosts know that when ghosts appear, there must be negative energy.
But he didn't notice anything unusual.
He thought for a moment and whispered, "Zhou Qing and those paper figures... haven't they been found yet?"
Jiang Xu nodded, a meaningful smile on his lips: "Let's go to the banquet tonight, do you want to come?"
Jiang Xu greeted the villagers and hoped that they could lead the way, and everyone naturally agreed happily.
When holding weddings in the countryside, people like to have a lot of people and a lively atmosphere.
Besides, there's Zhou Qing...
When talking about this child, everyone's expressions became complicated.
"This child...really has a miserable life." Aunt Hu showed pity on her face.
“Master Jiang, can you wait until she has seen her mother before accepting her?”
Aunt Hu knew that if a soul stayed in the human world, it must have some obsession.
It is understandable that after taking revenge, he would want to see his mother again before leaving.
However, Zhou Qing is a ghost after all, and it is difficult for Zhu Xiaoli to find a good home. If something unexpected happens, it would be safer to have Master Jiang around.
…
Night falls.
A group of people came to Chen's house.
A row of red lanterns hang outside the Chinese-style courtyard, illuminating the entire courtyard.
The tall vermilion-painted door frame has a wedding character pasted on it, which is particularly elegant.
There was a constant stream of guests at the scene. The groom's parents were wearing new Chinese-style clothes and welcoming the guests at the door. They spoke and behaved politely and the scene was very lively.
Zhao Xin looked around curiously and whispered, "This Chen family is really impressive."
"However, where we are, we usually get married in the morning and the ceremony officially begins at noon. This is the first time I've attended a wedding banquet in the evening."
This statement immediately received a lot of approval.
[Yeah, how could someone get married at night? ]
This is too weird.
[In a small Chinese courtyard, it's pitch black at night, and the red light of red lanterns shines down. I feel a strange sense of creepiness. What's going on?]
[You're just overthinking it. We usually hold wedding banquets at night.]
[Sometimes people pay attention to auspicious times, and some even get married at two or three in the morning.]
[Where I live, it's usually during the day and at night, but there's also a saying that second marriages should be held at night.]
[I heard that in ancient times, weddings were usually held at night? This was to prevent bride kidnapping. However, many places still retain this custom, especially in the south.]
Jiang Xu and others walked into the courtyard.
The banquet was almost ready. Each table was covered with red cloth and filled with steaming food.
Everyone found a quiet place in a corner. Jiang Yu took out a tissue and wiped it before letting Jiang Xu sit down.
The people who served the food were all hired helpers. They wore uniform clothes, smiled, and walked very fast.
But Zhao Xin didn't know if it was an illusion, but he always felt that the girl who helped serve the dishes trembled inaudibly when she passed by them, or to be more precise, when she passed by Jiang Xu.
Something suddenly flashed through the mind of the knowledgeable Zhao Xin, and a dense layer of goose bumps instantly appeared on his arms.
Damn, no way!
At this time, cheers and laughter came from outside the yard.
"Here comes the bride!"
Zhu Xiaoli, wearing a red wedding gown embroidered with gold and heavy gold jewelry on her head, got out of the wedding car with an expression of uncontrollable joy on her face.
The groom Chen Yang held her hand. He was tall, with fair skin and handsome features, a typical southern appearance.
The two walked the red carpet hand in hand.
The villagers couldn't help but stare in amazement.
"What a beautiful bride."
"This headband is made of pure gold, right? How much does it cost?"
I knew the Chen family was rich, but I didn’t expect them to be so rich!
Jiang Xu glanced at the two people's faces and slowly narrowed his eyes.
After various ceremonies such as worshipping in the hall and serving tea are completed, the banquet officially begins.
Zhao Xin was a little hesitant to pick up his chopsticks. Jiang Xu took a bite and found it tasted really good.
Seeing that he looked like he was facing a great enemy, she chuckled, "Aren't you hungry?"
After hearing this, Zhao Xin dared to pick up the chopsticks.
“Mmm, it smells so good!”
You know what, this chef’s cooking skills are really good.
But the lady who had been avoiding Jiang Xu actually took the initiative to serve her a pot of tea.
Jiang Yu paused while picking up food for his sister.
Qiao Jiatong looked over in surprise.
Jiang Xu looked at the little girl thoughtfully, then nodded and continued, "Thank you."
The little girl shook her head, raised the corner of her mouth, and walked away briskly.
And then, he never came back.
"Hey, the little girl wants special treatment?" Zhao Xin said.
Why does Master Jiang have it but we don’t?
Tang Yue thought of his cowardly look just now and rolled her eyes at him, "You're still trying to compete with Master Jiang?"
Lu Jiawen said in a cold tone: "If I really give it to you, you will be unhappy again."
Zhao Xin: ...
It hurts you two.
When the banquet was almost over, another scream was suddenly heard.
Everyone followed the sound and saw the bride Zhu Xiaoli with a pale face, staring at the mahogany box on the ground in horror.
"This, this box...wasn't there just now!"
"The dowry suddenly has an extra box!"
