Chapter 144 Gold and Wedding
Jiang Chen pulled Ye Rou out and got into the military green jeep parked at the door.
He drove out of the town and parked in a deserted place.
Ye Rou got out of the car and looked around blankly. It was a desolate and quiet hillside with lush trees and vegetation, but there was nothing special about it.
Jiang Chen pulled her to the back of the truck bed, lifted a layer of iron sheet underneath, and a layer of golden light shot out. Ye Rou suddenly opened her eyes wide.
Pieces of gold fit together tightly like bricks, covering the entire truck bed and shining brightly.
"What are these?" Ye Rou asked Jiang Chen blankly.
Her fox eyes were wide open, her mouth was open, and she showed a rare bit of silliness.
"Your gold."
Jiang Chen replied to her, raising the corners of his eyes slightly, outlining a smile.
Ye Rou picked up a piece, it felt heavy in her hand, and she asked foolishly, "Where should I send it to?"
"Beijing." Jiang Chen hugged Ye Rou from behind, covering her tightly like a dense net.
He said, "I bought a yard in the capital and dug a cellar to store the gold."
He took the gold from Ye Rou's arms, and she subconsciously reached out to grab it, only to find a brass key.
Jiang Chen tapped her hand and said, "The yard and the gold are all yours."
"It's all mine?"
Ye Rou grabbed the key, blinked, and repeated his words blankly.
"Yeah." Jiang Chen put the iron sheet back to cover the gold. When he moved, Ye Rou rushed over and hugged him.
Jiang Chen paused, leaned against the truck bed and sat down, then pulled Ye Rou onto his lap.
"like?"
Ye Rou nodded vigorously, and then said happily, "I like it very much."
Think about the future price of gold, think about all the gold she has, and from now on please call her Ye Fu Po Rou.
She smiled happily, with the corners of her mouth raised.
Seeing her smile, Jiang Chen lifted her chin and kissed her sideways.
It was a very light kiss, and it left immediately, which was not like Jiang Chen's usual style.
Ye Rou looked up at him.
Jiang Chen's Adam's apple rolled, his gaze scorching as he stared at her, his voice hoarse as he said, "Seven more days."
Seven days?
Ye Rou didn't understand at first, but then she realized that their wedding was seven days later.
Thinking about what she was going to do on the wedding day, Ye Rou's cheeks flushed and she coughed uncomfortably.
Jiang Chen heard her coughing and thought she was cold, so he picked her up, put her back in the car, and drove back to the town.
——
The eighth day of the first lunar month is an auspicious day for marriage.
The firecrackers crackled and the house was extremely lively.
There were no wedding dresses in that era, so Ye Rou made her wedding dress out of red cloth. She wore a bright red waist-cinching halter dress inside and a symmetrical pearl-buttoned jacket outside.
She was wearing bright red, even the shoes on her feet were bright red high heels.
Old Lady Song stood behind Ye Rou, holding a jade comb in her hand, combing Ye Rou's long hair from top to bottom. Every time she combed her hair, she said a lucky word.
“If you comb your hair thoroughly, you will have no worries about wealth and prosperity.
Comb your hair twice to keep it disease-free and worry-free.
Combing your hair three times brings you many children and a long life.
Then comb your hair all the way to the end, and raise it to your eyebrows again."
Zhao Cui, Zhou Nian, and Aunt Zhou all gathered around and looked at Ye Rou.
Her black hair was spread out, radiant and beautiful, her skin was snow-white, her long eyelashes drooped to cover her eyes, and her face was flushed.
Old Lady Song used a red jade hairpin to tie up Ye Rou's long hair, and then put on her the pearl earrings and tourmaline pearl necklace given by Zheng Xiu, as well as the red and blue sapphire ring given by Jiang Chen.
She was covered in jewels but she did not overshadow the rest of the group, making Ye Rou look even more beautiful.
The sounds of gongs and drums outside were getting louder and louder, and the auspicious time had arrived.
Ye Rou's heart was beating like a drum. She almost twisted her ankle due to nervousness when she stood up. Zhou Nian beside her was quick to support her.
The door opened and grandpa stood at the door. When he saw her come out, the usually indifferent old man's eyes were slightly red.
Ye Rou took his arm and stepped onto the red carpet. Zhou Liang and Meng Guan stood on each side and fired a salute.
Jiang Chen stood at the end of the red carpet. His well-tailored black suit made him look even taller. The sunlight shining on his face softened the hardness of his features.
Ye Rou took Zheng Zhiyuan's arm and walked towards him step by step.
The closer she got, the faster her heart beat, and her palms were sweaty from nervousness as she held the bouquet.
Jiang Chen took Ye Rou from Zheng Zhiyuan, took her hand, led her out of the gate, and got into the jeep with a wedding character on it.
Wang Honghong drove the newlyweds to Dahe Village.
Dahe Village was bustling with activity. The wedding banquet was held from the village entrance to the yard at the foot of the mountain. Every household hung red lanterns, and the villagers attended the wedding with smiles on their faces.
Seeing the jeep entering the village, the children rushed forward and surrounded Ye Rou who got off the car, saying auspicious words.
Ye Rou was at a loss.
Jiang Chen threw a bag of candy to the children, and they ran away happily.
Village chief Jiang presided over the wedding ceremony with a red flower on his chest.
Jiang Chen usually hated these tedious procedures, but today he was surprisingly patient. He did whatever he was told to do, staring at Ye Rou with a burning gaze.
Others just thought he was happy, but Ye Rou trembled under his gaze. She always felt like she had become a fat lamb, and Jiang Chen, the big-tailed wolf, was thinking about how to eat her.
After being sent to the bridal chamber, Ye Rou sat on the kang and looked around the room.
The house is still the same house, but the interior layout is different. The hard earthen kang that she used to complain about is now covered with layers of thick cushions.
The room was filled with a dressing table and a large wardrobe. A newspaper with her photo was posted where it could be seen as soon as one entered the door, and big red wedding decorations were pasted on the glass windows.
Jiang Chen also thoughtfully drilled holes in the wall and installed thick curtains to block the cold wind coming through the gaps in the windows.
Ye Rou thought the wedding banquet would last until late, but she underestimated Jiang Chen's desire for meat and his sinister intention of holding the wedding banquet in the village.
She felt that high heels were tiring for her feet, so she had just taken off her shoes and was climbing onto the kang barefoot when Jiang Chen came in with food.
Ye Rou had one leg raised on the kang, with the hem of her skirt forming a bright red arc. Her posture was very indecent, and she was in a position that was neither up nor down.
Jiang Chen put down his meal and strode towards Ye Rou, hugging her tightly around the waist.
Ye Rou was barefoot to avoid getting dirt on her feet, so she wrapped her legs around his waist, and the distance between the two of them became infinitely closer.
She looked up and saw Jiang Chen's thick, rolling Adam's apple.
He held Ye Rou and put her on the kang, straightened her messy long hair, turned around and served her food.
Ye Rou had been hungry for a long time, and she was not reserved when she saw the food, but ate it happily.
Jiang Chen supported his chin and looked at her. He saw that she was eating with gusto, and the curve of her mouth gradually widened.
Ye Rou stuffed a steamed bun in her mouth and mumbled, "You don't want to eat?"
Jiang Chen shook his head and said slowly, "I don't eat this."
Ye Rou thought he was not hungry, but after she finished her meal and washed up, she saw that he did not move and let down his guard, and then a big bad wolf that had been lying in ambush for a long time pounced on her.
Jiang Chen took off Ye Rou's coat. She was wearing a bright red halter dress underneath, which made her skin look snow-white and smooth to the touch.
He didn't expect to see such a gorgeous scenery under the coat. His eyes were burning hot and his voice was hoarse and low: "Little cutie, I want you."
Ye Rou's cheeks flushed with shyness, and her body trembled. She suppressed her shyness, stood on tiptoe and threw herself into Jiang Chen's arms, saying in a very soft voice, "You, you be gentle."
Jiang Chen suddenly picked up Ye Rou and threw her into the soft bedding.
The bright red skirt rolled up to her waist, and Ye Rou's choked sobs echoed throughout the night.
