On the eighth day of the first lunar month, a lucky day personally chosen by Qian Duoduo, Jin Jinxiu immediately had Qian Rao take Wen Yugui to get their marriage certificate. On the sixteenth day of the first lunar month, Qian Rao borrowed the old Party Secretary's bicycle to pick up Wen Yugui from her aunt's house in the county town and brought her back to the Qian family. The family even hosted a banquet with 10 tables.
Qian Duoduo followed Qian Rao to the Wen family home, where she personally dressed up Wen Yugui, much to the astonishment of Wen's great-aunt's family.
They had all seen how beautiful Wen Yugui was, but they never expected that she would be even more beautiful after dressing up!
A middle-aged woman stopped Qian Duoduo and asked, "Yu Gui, my niece is also planning to get married next month. Your hair looks so nice, and your face is so well made up. Could you do the same for my niece?"
Qian Duoduo said with a smile, "I'm just getting this done for my family."
The middle-aged woman said, "I am Wen Yali's sister-in-law. My husband's niece is getting married next month, and I think Yu Gui looks really beautiful."
Qian Duoduo said with a smile, "Aunt Jiao, today is a special day for my fourth brother and sister-in-law. We can talk about other things later."
Aunt Jiao glanced at the people around her and Qian Rao's anxious eyes, then shut her mouth. They were already relatives, so some things were easier to discuss.
When Qian Rao saw Wen Yugui all dressed up, his eyes widened. He finally understood what Qian Xiangge meant when he said his heart raced and his blood boiled when he saw his wife all dressed up.
My wife is so beautiful, she's so beautiful she's captured my heart. Words can't describe how I feel right now. All I can think about is taking her home as soon as possible, and then eating all sorts of delicious food, until I'm completely satisfied, like I can't get enough!
Seeing her fourth brother's flustered state, Qian Duoduo smiled and said, "Fourth brother, isn't fourth sister-in-law beautiful!"
Qian Rao nodded and said foolishly, "It looks good."
Qian Duoduo said with a smile, "Fourth Sister-in-law, look how dumbfounded my fourth brother is! You should take him away quickly!"
Wen Yugui felt quite pleased with Qian Rao's expression.
Qian Rao rode his bicycle very fast, so fast that Qian Mao and Qian Duoduo couldn't catch up. Qian Duoduo tugged at Qian Mao's clothes and said, "Third Brother, don't chase him. Fourth Brother is full of energy right now. How can you compare to him?"
Qian Mao laughed and said, "Oh dear, I'm going to sleep in my older brother's room tonight."
Qian Duoduo smiled and said, "Third Brother, what are you thinking?"
Qian Mao rode his bike slowly, looking at the road ahead, and said softly, "I want to go uphill."
Looking at the not-so-broad back in front of him, Qian Duoduo said, "Third Brother, I'll keep going. Your current position is not your starting point, nor will it be your end. Everything in the country is developing better now. When I was in the county, I would read some newspapers. The country needs talent, so Third Brother, study hard. You need to be strong yourself to forge iron. Knowledge is in your mind, and no one can ever take it away from you."
What you learn will only be useful when you need it. As the ancients said, "Books hold houses of gold and beauties of jade." Third brother, our eldest and second brothers are both in the military; it's hard to say how far they'll go. You want to go into politics, so you need to learn knowledge, culture, how to cultivate connections, the ways of officialdom, and the sense of distance and propriety with your superiors.
Qian Mao said with a smile, "I didn't expect you to be waiting for all this."
Qian Duoduo: "I've grown up and become more sensible, so naturally I'll think about things. You can't always treat me like Qian Yi'an!"
Qian Mao laughed, but the vibration from his back annoyed Qian Duoduo: "Is this on vibrate? Can't you just ring a bell?"
When Qian Duoduo and Qian Mao arrived home, the wedding ceremony was already over, and the villagers had started eating. Jin Jinxiu, dressed in a clean orange-red dress, was all smiles. Qian Duoduo noticed that the dress looked familiar and whispered to Qian Mao, "Isn't that the dress Mom is wearing the one Auntie made for Qian Xiang's wedding?"
Qian Mao nodded and said, "The last time Qian Yin got engaged, Auntie wore this dress."
Qian Duoduo: Well, the main point of this outfit is, is it for a happy occasion?
Jin Jinxiu saw Qian Mao and Qian Duoduo standing by the bicycle at the door and walked over, saying, "Why are you two back so late? Hurry up and go help!"
Qian Mao immediately nodded: "Okay!"
Just as Qian Duoduo was about to follow, Jin Jinxiu said, "Go and see your fourth sister-in-law; she's quite familiar with you."
Qian Duoduo nodded and walked towards Qian Rao's room. This room was originally the room where Qian Rao and Qian Mao lived together. Because Qian Rao was getting married, Qian Mao moved his things to the room where Qian Feng and Qian Yu lived together. Jin Jinxiu re-covered the room with money, and even used rare large white paper, making the whole room look bright and clean.
The furniture inside consisted of tables, chairs, and cabinets bought from the village carpenter. Qian Sheng also had Qian Mao buy a red kang mat from the supply and marketing cooperative. All of this made Wen Yugui feel valued by the Qian family.
When Qian Duoduo walked in, she saw Wen Yugui still looking around, so she smiled and said, "Fourth Sister-in-law, are you tired?"
Wen Yugui shook her head: "No, I'm a little excited. I'm about to start a new life."
Qian Duoduo said with a smile, "Fourth Sister-in-law, have you ever thought about whether you'll regret selling your job?"
Wen Yugui shook her head and said, "No regrets, your fourth brother deserves it! With this money, our lives will be a little better."
Qian Duoduo shrugged: "You're coming back here to work the land with Fourth Brother."
Wen Yugui said, "As long as he's worth it!"
Qian Duoduo nodded. As long as Fourth Brother thinks it's worth it, what's the harm?
After Qian Rao got married, he and Wen Yugui lived a sweet life. No matter what they were doing, as long as their eyes met, they would smile at each other. Occasionally, they would do some little things that only the two of them could do. However, Qian Duoduo, who was always fed dog food at home, said: "I understand what you mean by these little things!"
Jin Jinxiu suddenly felt liberated after having a daughter-in-law. She finally understood how her sister-in-law felt after having a daughter-in-law. In the morning, someone would prepare breakfast and even tidy up the yard. Although she usually tidied up herself, the feeling of having to keep everything in order was actually quite nice!
Now, praising their daughter-in-law to everyone they meet has become a routine for He Ying and Jin Jinxiu. The people of Beian Village don't know what to say when they see this pair of sisters-in-law. If you say something bad about their daughter-in-law, they start praising her. How can everyone have anything in common with them?
However, Qian Duoduo didn't stay idle during the holiday; she became good friends with Feng Niaoniao!
