Chapter 258 I only love my wife!
At that time, Du Anrao did not know that he was only one step away from the truth. On the day of Du Desheng's wedding, Du Anrao got up early and went to the hotel in person to pick up Du's father, Du's mother and others who had arrived in City B the day before.
The wedding was chosen on an auspicious day at the end of the year, which happened to be a weekend, so everyone was free and came.
The first time she saw Du Anrao, Du's mother almost subconsciously blurted out: "You've lost weight."
Then he came face to face with Duan Rao's round double chin.
Duan Rao: “…”
Mother Du: “…”
Everyone: “…”
[Sure enough, there is a kind of thinness that makes your mother think you are thin. 】
Mother Du: “…”
"Ahem... Let's go pick up Yi Han first." At the critical moment, it was Du's father who helped to smooth things over.
Du's mother decisively changed the subject and stepped down: "Yes, yes, yes, go pick up your third brother first."
After driving a bit to pick up Du Yihan, the group headed to the wedding scene in a mighty manner.
Du Desheng prepared the most traditional Chinese wedding for his lover, with a phoenix coronet, a bridal veil, and a sedan chair carried by eight people.
The entire wedding venue was in the house where Du Desheng and others were currently living. Considering Qin Yanqing's health, Du Desheng did not let her leave the house, but he did not miss any of the procedures such as the wedding reception and parade.
At that time, she only needed to go out from the east gate and get on the sedan chair. The team would walk around Jingyu Street and several nearby streets, then go back from the other side and return to the mansion from the west gate.
This process may seem simple, but considering that Jingyu Street is not far from the busiest tourist attraction in City B, there are countless tourists coming and going on weekdays, not to mention during holidays.
The people walking around with the sound of gongs and drums almost blocked the road.
Because of the previous incident, Qin Yanqing had severed ties with everyone in the Qin family. No one from the Qin family was invited to the wedding, so Du Anrao temporarily took on the role of her in-laws.
After picking up the people, he would rush back to the bride, help her put on her clothes, take all the things that symbolize good luck to get on the bridal sedan, enter the venue, step over the fire basin, pass the saddle, climb the wedding stage, bow in the hall, and even help her into the bridal chamber.
After nervously and excitedly helping the bride go through all the procedures, Duanrao was finally able to catch his breath. He thought about leaving the bridal chamber and going out to find something to eat.
By the way, see if there is anything small and easy to carry to take back to fill the bride's belly.
Unexpectedly, as soon as I walked out of the inner courtyard and turned a corridor, I saw several middle-aged women in gorgeous clothes standing outside the archway and whispering.
Duanrao didn't care too much at first and just wanted to leave as soon as possible. Unexpectedly, he heard a malicious and harsh word as soon as he approached.
"She's already so old, the skin on her face must be as rough as orange peel, right? And she's being given such a grand wedding. It's really embarrassing."
Duanrao paused, and the expression on his face became visibly gloomy.
The woman in yellow clothes on the left side of the archway trembled with fear when she heard this, and quickly stood up and tried to cover her mouth.
"Oh, my ancestor, you shouldn't say that. Have you forgotten how Boss Du's nephew and his family were collectively driven out of City B and even lost their home?"
Du Anrao's eyes flickered. Du Lao's nephew? Her uncle's nephew, isn't that Du Wei's family? Their family was driven out of City B? When did it happen? She didn't even know about it!
The expression on the face of the middle-aged woman who had just spoken froze for a moment, but she quickly regained her composure: "What are you afraid of? There's no one else here, and everyone else is eating in front. Are you going to go out and say something? Besides, what I said was not wrong, it was embarrassing in the first place. You're so old, and you're still so high-profile, don't be afraid of what people say."
The lady in yellow clothes who reminded her subconsciously looked around when she heard this. Seeing that there were indeed no strangers, she breathed a sigh of relief and said helplessly, "The more I tell you not to speak, the more you speak. Sooner or later, you will be ruined by your mouth."
The old lady crossed her arms and snorted coldly, obviously not taking her companion's reminder seriously at all.
On the other side, the aunt in a bright red shirt smiled faintly and interrupted: “I think what Mrs. Shen said is right.”
The aunt in yellow clothes immediately widened her eyes in surprise, with a look of panic on her face, as if saying, "Are you crazy? She is ignorant, are you as ignorant as her?"
The aunt in the red shirt who was speaking behind seemed to be unaware of anything, and looked like a rational person who was the only one sober while everyone else was drunk.
"Old Du is a hero, this is an undeniable fact. But it is also true that heroes are often tempted by beautiful women. Apart from other things, he was definitely wrong to drive his eldest nephew and his family out of City B."
"Look at how old Mr. Du is, and how old is his wife? They will never have any offspring in this lifetime. The family of his eldest nephew is the closest to him, and blood is thicker than water! He is listening to that woman's advice and driving them away. In the future, this huge fortune will definitely go to outsiders. By then, it will be the end of the hero, and Mr. Du's later years will be miserable!"
"That's right! Madam Kou's words are exactly what I want to say. It is said that a virtuous wife brings prosperity to three generations, while an evil wife destroys the foundation. If you don't marry the right wife, no matter how big the family business is, it will not be enough. Mr. Du didn't marry a virtuous wife from a good family, but married these vixens who bring chaos to the family. In my opinion, he is just old and confused, and he will suffer in the future."
Du Anrao frowned as he saw these people talking more and more outrageously, especially when he heard the so-called Madam Shen talking. He always felt a lingering sour taste, so he couldn't help but pay more attention to her, and then he discovered a secret that was not really a secret.
[I was wondering why this Madam Shen spoke sourly. I could smell it even from such a distance! It turns out that this Madam Shen had a crush on my cousin and wanted him to be her brother-in-law.]
The anger in Duanrao's eyes had mostly disappeared, replaced by curiosity and excitement of tasting a big melon.
[Tsk tsk tsk, what a pity! My uncle has always been faithful to one woman, and he only has my grandmother Qin in his heart. He has never been interested in her sister. Madam Shen's matchmaking career collapsed before it was halfway through. Now she sees my uncle and grandmother Qin finally getting married, and she is so jealous that her eyes are red. That's why she ran to the wedding scene to be sarcastic.]
The Du family members, Du Desheng, and Xi Jingyue waited in the front yard for a long time but Du Anrao didn't come back, so they came over worriedly.
I never thought that I would hear such a bombshell just after turning into the side door.
In an instant, everyone's eyes were focused on Du Desheng, as if saying: I didn't expect you to be such a cousin!
Du Desheng: "..." It's none of my business. Didn't you hear what An An said? I only love my wife!!!
