Chapter 56 Not Suitable
Not long after, there was a commotion outside the yard.
Seven or eight young men in military uniforms came in.
The man in the lead was also wearing a military uniform and had a big red flower tied to his neck. It was obvious at a glance that he was the groom, Xu Hao.
Xu Hao has an ordinary appearance and is about 1.7 meters tall, but in his military uniform, he can be considered a handsome man.
The comrades behind him held candies in their hands and enthusiastically distributed one to each of the onlookers. The scene was very lively.
Su Nanzhi couldn't help but turn her head to look at Gu Xiaole. After seeing Gu Xiaole's reluctant expression, the corners of her mouth couldn't help but twitch.
But she didn't say anything. She and another friend of Gu Xiaole stood beside her and helped Gu Xiaole out of the room.
Gu Xiaole is getting married and is leaving home. The Gu family is happy but also a little sad, and their eyes are unconsciously red.
With deep reluctance to part with their daughter, the Gu family watched Xu Hao ride his bicycle and take Gu Xiaole away.
Bicycles were rare in that era. Su Nanzhi and the other bridesmaids and groomsmen did not have bicycles and had to walk to the army.
Fortunately, the Gu family is not far from the army.
As soon as the bride and groom left, the soldiers' furtive gazes were no longer hidden and fell on her openly.
Su Nanzhi naturally noticed their gazes and smiled and nodded at one of the soldiers.
As if receiving some hint, the soldier immediately approached Su Nanzhi and asked curiously, "Comrade Su, do you know Platoon Leader Xu's wife?"
If he remembered correctly, Su Nanzhi had been visiting her relatives for less than half a month, but she had already become such a good friend to the locals that she even became their bridesmaid.
Su Nanzhi was waiting for someone to talk to her, and she immediately explained without hiding anything: "I helped Comrade Gu with her makeup, sorting out her clothes and makeup, so that she could look beautiful on such a happy day."
The soldier opened his mouth wide and couldn't help but look Su Nanzhi up and down.
This person in front of me, who is well-spoken, well-dressed and knows how to put on makeup, is Deputy Battalion Commander Qin's uneducated country girl fiancée?
If all uneducated country women were like Comrade Su, his mother would have to arrange more blind dates for him when he comes home to visit his family.
Another soldier came over and asked curiously, "Comrade Su, I didn't expect you to be able to put on makeup. Deputy Battalion Commander Qin never mentioned that."
Su Nanzhi didn't say anything and sighed deeply.
"My marriage to Qin Lie has been cancelled."
Everyone:?!
Seeing the shock and curiosity on everyone's faces, Su Nanzhi said with a sad face: "How can a country girl like me be worthy of Qin Lie? He, a deputy battalion commander, will have better choices."
She didn't want to marry Qin Lie, but the cancellation of the engagement was not something that Qin Lie could do with just one word. If she didn't skin Qin Lie alive, she would not be called Su Nanzhi.
Although Su Nanzhi only said this one sentence, everyone likes to imagine it.
However, everyone tacitly agreed that Qin Lie was a Chen Shimei.
After all, everyone knew that Qin Lie pooped in public in the hospital, and in the end it was Zhao Xue, the widow of his comrade-in-arms, who took care of him.
If the two of them had no relationship, who would clean up the mess for a grown man like Qin Lie?
After Su Nanzhi finished speaking, she didn't say anything more, leaving room for everyone's imagination.
As they were talking, everyone had already hurried to the gate of the family compound. Xu Hao also controlled his pace. When they entered the family compound, they saw another lively group of people.
The families in the family compound had already been waiting there.
When they saw the newlyweds Xu Hao and Gu Xiaole, they immediately surrounded them. Finally, under the cover of their comrades, the two successfully reached their home.
Su Nanzhi and another bridesmaid helped Gu Xiaole into the bedroom and just sat down.
The military wives and children immediately squeezed in. Compared with the soldiers just now, these military wives were more familiar with Su Nanzhi. However, everyone also knew that today was Xu Hao and Gu Xiaole's wedding day, so they did not ask Su Nanzhi in front of her why she was sending a wedding to Gu Xiaole.
However, that look would fall on Su Nanzhi from time to time, but besides exploration, there was also some expectation in that look?
Su Nanzhi lowered her eyes, a hint of thought flashing across her eyes.
The next second, a familiar figure appeared at the door.
The smile on Zhao Xue's face disappeared immediately when she saw Su Nanzhi.
"You...why are you here?"
Because of the shock, the voice was a little cracked, instantly attracting the attention of everyone in the room.
Realizing her own loss of composure, Zhao Xue forced an unnatural smile.
"Nanzhi, you came here to look for Brother Qin, right? Why did you end up in someone else's new house?"
Su Nanzhi couldn't stand Zhao Xue's habit of not speaking unless she was told to talk. Although she didn't want to spoil her, today was not her home court after all.
She said with a forced smile, "I have nothing to do with Qin Lie, and I'm not here to see him."
Zhao Xue didn't believe Su Nanzhi's explanation. In her opinion, Su Nanzhi was a woman from the countryside and didn't know anyone except Qin Lie.
"Nanzhi, there's nothing to be embarrassed about walking into the wrong room." Zhao Xue's eyes flashed with malice, "It's just that today is Platoon Leader Xu's big day, and it might be a bit inappropriate for you to show up here."
Su Nanzhi frowned, somewhat not understanding what she meant.
Gu Xiaole, who was standing by, immediately asked anxiously, "Sister-in-law, why do you say that?"
She didn't want her wedding to go wrong because of insignificant people.
"Nanzhi, don't blame me." Zhao Xue said this to Su Nanzhi, then turned to Gu Xiaole and said impatiently, "Nanzhi is the only one left in the family."
Su Nanzhi immediately understood what Zhao Xue meant, and her eyes turned cold.
Gu Xiaole and everyone else didn't understand Zhao Xue's incoherent words.
Zhao Xue glanced at Su Nanzhi proudly and said to Gu Xiaole, "Nanzhi's parents passed away a long time ago, and she's the only one left at home. On your wedding day, isn't it not appropriate for her to attend? After all..."
Although she only said half of her words, it made everyone think a lot.
Although feudal dregs have been severely cracked down, most people today are still somewhat superstitious.
Su Nanzhi had lost both her parents and was the only one in the family. In the countryside, being called a "death star" was a minor offense. People would take a detour when they met such a person.
People who are more superstitious would not even invite such a person to their wedding.
Some of the elderly ladies in the room immediately showed disgust on their faces, and even pulled their grandchildren back, fearing that they would be in trouble if they met Su Nanzhi.
Seeing this, Zhao Xue immediately showed a satisfied expression. Her eyes instantly turned to the bride Gu Xiaole, hoping that she, as the hostess, could scold Su Nanzhi and drive her out.
Gu Xiaole looked at Su Nanzhi with a conflicted expression.
