"My parents are so rich. They always complain about being poor to me. I guess they just want to leave this money for my older brother and his family. They're so biased. I'm going to take all the money and make you all furious," Bai Ruixue cursed.
Without the slightest hesitation, she stuffed the purse into her waistband.
Driven by greed, she continued searching.
This time, not a single copper coin can be found.
She was not satisfied.
They then searched through the house of the Bai Ruiji couple.
Until all the houses in the house were ransacked and left in a mess.
Bai Ruixue stopped in disappointment.
She only received the house deed, land deed, ten taels of silver, and her sister-in-law's silver earrings, which were light and worthless, but had a nice design that she had been eyeing for a long time.
"How come my elder brother and sister-in-law don't have a single copper coin? And Xiang Song, after working under Yan for so long, didn't he secretly hide some silver? That brat must have hidden the silver somewhere I can't find it, what a sly fellow!" Bai Ruixue said angrily.
But so much time had passed that she dared not linger any longer; if her family returned, she wouldn't be able to leave even if she wanted to.
Bai Ruixue packed her bags, secretly slipped out of the house, and ran towards the edge of the village without even closing the door.
This thieving appearance didn't escape Aunt Big Mouth's notice.
She had just come out of her friend's house after chatting.
"Why didn't the old lady of the Bai family attend the Wang family's wedding banquet? Oh, the way she's sneaking around, I thought she was a thief. How strange." She looked at Bai Ruixue's back and muttered to herself.
At this moment, Bai Xiangsong felt somewhat uneasy about the Wang family.
It wasn't his turn to be on duty today, so he had some free time to come and attend Wang Yuanshan's wedding banquet.
But when he arrived, Bai Ruixue was all alone at home. He had grown up with his aunt since he was little and knew her too well.
"Grandpa, do you think Auntie might steal money?"
Xiang Song's voice was very soft, so soft that only Bai Lizheng could hear it.
"Who knows?" Bai Lizheng was somewhat lost in thought.
Just as Bai Xiangsong was about to suggest going home to visit, Wang Yuanshan and Qian Wanyue came to their table to offer a toast.
The people at the table, the old ones were sitting, and the young ones were standing.
It was bustling with activity.
Bai Xiangsong had no chance and could only swallow his words.
After eating and drinking to their hearts' content, they chatted until evening before the wedding banquet finally ended. Most of the men present were drunk, and a few of the women who enjoyed drinking also passed out.
When Yan Xia returned from town, she brought ten jars of wine with her.
Now there isn't a single drop of wine left in the wine jar.
"Alright, alright, everyone go home. I'm dizzy from drinking, I'm going home to sleep. Honey, come help me up. Huh? Where is everyone?"
"Hahaha, Gou Shengzi, your wife is already drunk and confused. Your two girls took her home. Go find your son and have him help you."
"His son? His son is probably drunk and passed out in some hole. It's hilarious. The whole family are alcoholics."
"Alright, alright, it's a joyous occasion, why talk about this? My husband is also completely drunk. I must say, the wine that Yan brought is really fragrant and delicious, it must be quite expensive."
"How could it not be expensive? Didn't you hear what the officiant said? Yan Xia gave Wang Yuanshan a house in town. Ah, I'm so envious. His daughter married well, and the whole family has changed their social standing. That's a house in town. Even if it's cheap, it must be over a hundred taels."
"Not only the house, but I heard that Yuanshan is now Yanxia's manager, and he earns three taels of silver a month. Oh my, I should have introduced my daughter to Yuanshan. I didn't expect Yanxia to be so generous, even taking care of her daughter-in-law's family. Unlike others, who are afraid that their daughters-in-law will use their husband's family's things to subsidize their own family."
"Shh—keep your voices down, don't let Yan Xia hear. I've always said she's a good person, but you don't believe me. Look at my family. Ever since my sister-in-law became a flower farmer and my husband went to work in the cattle shed, look at our family's life. We're getting better every day, and we can eat meat every day. It's all thanks to Yan Xia. From now on, if anyone dares to say anything bad about Yan Xia, I'll be the first to object."
"Everyone envies us. The Wang family will be moving to town soon, and our village will be one less family. Sigh, why didn't I get closer to Yan back then? If my husband hadn't been good friends with Yuanshan's father when he was a child, we probably wouldn't have come to this wedding banquet. I regret it so much."
"........"
When the show ended.
A dozen or so people were chatting together.
Yan Xia heard these words clearly.
It's because she has sharp ears.
However, she didn't pay attention and went to the bridal chamber as if she didn't know anything about it.
Inside the room, Qian Wanyue sat on the bed, her face flushed, nervously clutching the hem of her clothes and rubbing it repeatedly.
Wang Yuanshan was accompanying Xu Chunxia as they saw off guests outside, since his father had passed away early.
He had to shoulder the heavy responsibility of being the head of the family.
"Xiaoyue, before you left home, did your family teach you anything about that kind of thing?" Yan Xia asked her with some concern.
Sex education was practically nonexistent in ancient times.
A woman is like a blank sheet of paper before she gets married.
Only the day before her wedding would her mother or a female elder in the family teach her how to serve a man.
Purely a last-minute attempt to cram.
Yan Xia was afraid that she would be scared, so she decided to explain it to her.
“I was taught, I was taught. My mother told me that it would hurt a little and that I should bear it and not cry out. She said it would be fine after tonight…” Qian Wanyue’s cheeks turned even redder when she heard Yan Xia bring up this topic.
"That's all she taught you? Nothing more?" Qian Wanyue couldn't understand Yan Xia's expression. She nodded blankly. "That's all. That's all Mother taught me."
Yan Xia let out a deep breath.
It seems I still have to teach her, otherwise this girl will suffer.
"Your aunt will teach you, and you must remember this clearly. Don't be afraid of this. Your mother is right, it will hurt a lot at first. If it hurts, just say so and ask Yuanshan to be gentle. Don't be embarrassed. Let me give you an analogy: you have three openings down there. One is for when you poop, one is for when you pee, and the other is for when you have your period. And then there's the opening when a couple consummates their marriage..."
Yan Xia tried her best to explain to Qian Wanyue in polite language.
After talking for about fifteen minutes, she finally nodded as if she understood.
"Don't be afraid. Auntie will have Changfu teach Yuanshan. His father passed away early. Yuanshan is usually quiet and doesn't play around, so he naturally doesn't understand these things. Auntie will have Jingshui and Xiaohe come in to keep you company. If there's anything you don't understand, just ask them. Got it?"
After all, she was her friend's niece, so Yan Xia treated her like her own daughter and patiently taught her.
"Okay, Auntie, thank you." Qian Wanyue smiled gently. Although she was shy, she couldn't help but be touched by Yan Xia's concern for her.
"It's alright, Auntie will go out first." Yan Xia helped her tidy up her stray hairs and left the bridal chamber.
She called her two daughters-in-law in to keep Qian Wanyue company, and then pulled her half-drunk eldest son along, asking him to teach Wang Yuanshan a lesson.
