Chapter 154: Village Head Marries His Daughter (Part 2)
Sun Lizheng's home.
There were more than a dozen tables set up in the huge courtyard, and dozens of tables set up outside the courtyard.
At the edge of the yard, several large pots were set up, boiling water in full swing.
Sun Lizheng was wearing new clothes to entertain the whole village and relatives from other nearby villages.
His son-in-law is a well-known scholar, and he may become a high-ranking official in the future.
So he is also very impressive!
However, this Yandong Village is a cold and harsh place after all.
Not every household is rich.
Therefore, most of the villagers who attended the banquet brought some of their own specialties, such as eggs, bacon, furs of wild animals, etc.
Sun Lizheng also knew the family background of those people, but he didn't care.
When marrying off a daughter, the purpose is to have fun.
Until a group of people from the exiled Zhao family and the second and third branches of the Pei family arrived, they only brought some wild fruits and planned to set up three tables for the feast.
Sun Lizheng's face turned black.
They were all exiled, but others paid hundreds of taels at a time!
But they came to the banquet in large numbers, looking so proud, and only brought a few wild fruits?
Who are you looking down on?
However, today is a festive day after all, so Sun Lizheng couldn't get angry.
I just secretly wrote down what happened today in my little notebook.
Afterwards, Qiao Qiqi and Pei Shaoling brought over two pieces of red cloth and two taels of silver, which made Sun Lizheng smile again.
Anyone with a discerning eye could tell at a glance that the two pieces of red cloth that Qiao Qiqi brought were of the finest flowing brocade.
That's the kind of material that only the dignitaries in Hanzhou City can wear!
With these two pieces of material, plus the previous two pieces.
Even if my daughter goes to that scholar's house, she won't be bullied.
Li Zheng Sun personally welcomed Qiao Qiqi and Pei Shaoling into the main hall.
There are two tables there specially used to entertain distinguished guests!
Sun Lizheng could also tell from Pei Shaoling's demeanor that this man was just temporarily in shallow water.
He will never be inferior to others in the future.
At this moment, your words and actions will affect your future.
When passing by a table of people, Qiao Qiqi sensitively felt that someone was looking at her with a lewd look.
She turned her head and saw that it was Sun Erdan, the nephew of the village head whom she had met here a few days ago.
Qiao Qiqi glanced at him indifferently, without saying a word, and followed him into the main hall.
"Uncle, I'm your nephew, yet you let me sit in the courtyard while letting these two exiles sit in the main hall! How can this be justified?"
Sun Erdan followed with an unconvinced look on his face, grabbed Sun Lizheng's arm and questioned him.
"It's your little sister's wedding day, don't mess around here, go back to your place!"
Sun Lizheng glared at him and whispered, "This main hall is for distinguished guests! There are no exiles here!"
"Hmph, Uncle, don't fool me! I've found out everything over the past two days! They're the ones being exiled! But Dazhu told me so himself!"
Sun Erdan looked at Qiao Qiqi in the room with a lecherous expression. "Uncle, I heard that there are several beautiful girls in the exile group this time. Can you introduce one to me as a wife?"
Pei Shaoling also felt Sun Erdan's obscene gaze on his wife.
He narrowed his eyes slightly and said lightly, "Look at me again, and I will prevent you from seeing the sun tomorrow!"
He exuded a strong murderous intent, making the entire main hall feel chilling!
Sun Lizheng and Sun Erdan were frightened by the coldness and murderous intent in his voice and instinctively took two steps back.
Afterwards, Sun Lizheng pulled Sun Erdan's hand aside and said, "Erdan, you can't mess with these two! Listen to me! Oh, there are a few girls in the exile group. I don't think they have a good relationship. I'll pick one and I'll match them up!"
He comforted Sun Erdan in a low voice.
Today is my daughter’s wedding day!
My son-in-law, a scholar, will be here to pick her up soon. If I let my useless nephew get in the way!
Then my wife and daughter will blame me for the rest of their lives!
"That's fine. I've seen those girls these past two days. They're only slightly less pretty than the young lady just now! But I can make do with them!"
Sun Erdan nodded in satisfaction, "Uncle, those people are here, I'll go sit at the table next to them and pick and choose!"
"Well, it's just outside the courtyard. You can find it yourself! Anyway, you must not have any thoughts about the young lady of the Pei family in the main hall, understand?"
Sun Lizheng warned.
"Well, uncle, I get it! Your nephew just wants to find a wife to warm his bed. You know, the previous one was too ugly!"
Sun Erdan promised, "It was only my uncle who told me about this marriage. I promise to turn over a new leaf and live a good life!"
"That's fine! Once your little sister's wedding is over, uncle will come and take care of your affairs. You can get out now!"
Sun Lizheng breathed a sigh of relief.
His only worry about his daughter's happy occasion was that his nephew would cause trouble.
This will calm him down, that's great!
Qiao Qiqi waited until Sun Lizheng took the person away, then gently held Pei Shaoling's hand under the table.
"Husband, it's okay! There are always people like this in every village! He can't do anything to me! You know, you taught me martial arts!"
"Yeah, I know! I just don't like people looking at you like that. I don't like it!"
Pei Shaoling held Qiao Qiqi's hand and said, "My wife is so beautiful. I really want to hide you from others."
Qiao Qiqi burst out laughing, "Are you planning to hide a beautiful woman in your golden house?"
"Hidden beauty in a golden house? Good idea!"
Pei Shaoling curled his lips, "But, I know my wife definitely won't agree, right?"
"That's for sure!"
Qiao Qiqi raised her chin proudly, "I don't want to be the canary in the cage! I'm thinking of opening a gourmet food shop in Hongyan Town!"
"Oh? Madam, have you made your plans?"
Pei Shaoling asked with a raised eyebrow.
"Yeah, that's right! I asked the head craftsman these days and heard that the restaurant business in town is very good, but the taste is not particularly good."
Qiao Qiqi glanced around and said in a low voice.
Fortunately, there were only two of them in the main hall at the moment.
"Hongyan Town has quite a bit of foot traffic because there are often people from big business coming here to sell things. Food is the most important thing for people, and it's hard to grow food here, so I figured a gourmet food shop would be the perfect place!"
Qiao Qiqi whispered, "When the time comes, I plan to take Zhou Saozi and the others to town to open a shop. Mother and the others will stay here. What do you think?"
"Sure! I support you in whatever you want to do, my lady! But there's one thing: you must pay attention to safety!"
Pei Shaoling warned, "This time, I specially picked a few women from the Misty Rain Tower just to protect you and mother!"
