After all, many people know her father and the Li family, so they can merge the two families into one and hold the event together.
Their relatives can just send a truck to take them there.
When Li Baichuan and his group arrived, the sight of the rows of military vehicles made everyone's eyes widen.
Not to mention there was a truck following behind, and good heavens, the contents of that truck were even more outrageous.
"Wife." Li Baichuan went straight to Su Ti as soon as he got out of the car. He had finally seen his wife.
"Are you tired?" Suti wanted to hug him, but with so many people around, it was really inconvenient.
"Not tired." Li Baichuan took a deep breath, and the anxiety that had been hanging over him for the past few days after seeing his wife finally settled down.
"Why are there so many vehicles?" Suti saw several military vehicles behind him, it looked like they were out arresting criminals.
"They're all empty cars. Grandpa and the others were worried there would be too many people on your side." Li Baichuan quickly went up to call out to the Guo family members who came out from the other side.
"Hey, come in quickly, you must be exhausted from the journey," Grandma Guo called out, then paused for a moment when she saw the things on the car.
"Don't unload those things, pack them up and take them with you later." Guo Xuqing knew these were part of the betrothal gifts.
It's likely that the Li family shares the same idea as them: to put on a show, and even that show will be convincing enough.
“Yes, yes, we’ll take it all back to Nannan no matter how many there are,” Commander Guo chimed in, adding that it was such a hassle to unload the burden.
Li Baichuan saw his wife nod before greeting the people who had come with him in the truck.
"We won't unload these things. Come in and have something to eat." These people are all from their workplace.
I work in the transportation department myself, so getting a truck is easy for me.
"Brother Chuan, how about we unpack a few items and let people see them? Then we can put them back together later?" Biancheng had also come with Brother Chuan to pick up the bride.
It was Brother Chuan who took the initiative to find him, and he was overjoyed. He found two more reliable loaders, and Master Lu also came along, so he and Biancheng could take turns driving along the way.
When Biancheng arrived at his destination, he discovered that his sister-in-law's family was no ordinary one. At first, when he heard that they were from out of town, he thought they were from a small place.
He met his brother Chuan in the countryside; his family was probably of modest means. However, he had met his sister-in-law before; she was beautiful and pregnant. She didn't look down on his brother Chuan for being down on his luck back then; she really had a keen eye. She deserved to enjoy a good life with him.
When we arrived, we realized something was wrong. This wasn't some small place; it was Shanghai, which is no worse than Beijing.
When the car stopped, he was even more dumbfounded. This was probably where military and government personnel in Shanghai lived. This was no ordinary family home.
When Biancheng heard his brother Chuan say that the things wouldn't be unloaded, he thought, "How can that be? There are so many people watching outside."
This was a matter of saving face; they brought a lot of things, and even the wealthy Biancheng family stared wide-eyed when they saw them.
“No need to unload it. My wife’s family said they’ll have to take it all away later.” Li Baichuan knew what Biancheng was thinking.
Even without dismantling them, outsiders can see quite a lot.
"Alright then." When Biancheng heard his brother Chuan say that, he felt that his sister-in-law's family was even more extraordinary.
I'm not surprised at all by all these things. I guess their family doesn't lack these things either. This is truly a perfect match!
Biancheng called over the drivers to get out of the car, and Li Baichuan went over to call the drivers in the car to get out and have dinner.
"Baichuan, take care of the people here. We'll eat and rest for a bit before we set off."
Guo Xuqing was extremely busy, arranging for them to sit down and eat, afraid that he might not be able to entertain them properly.
"Mom, you go ahead and do your work. Don't worry about things here. My wife and I will go toast the guests later." Li Baichuan knew that those people were all his wife's relatives, so he should at least go over and say hello.
"Okay, I'll call you when we toast later." Guo Xuqing thought her son-in-law was sensible and realized she should indeed go and greet the relatives.
Master Lu and the other loaders felt very uncomfortable. Comrade Li's family was not simple, and his wife was no ordinary woman either.
They didn't dare touch the food that was served to them.
"Eat, don't embarrass Brother Chuan." Biancheng knew what they were thinking. The food on the table was really good, with chicken, fish, meat, and eggs all included.
Master Lu and the others exchanged glances and quickly sat up straight. Comrade Li had called them here because he trusted them, and they couldn't let him down.
Li Baichuan and his wife toasted the Guo family relatives, but since many of them were driving, they substituted tea for alcohol.
Cheng Xiaocao had been observing people. When she saw Li Baichuan's handsome appearance, she curled her lip and thought to herself, "That good-for-nothing Liu Ya."
Why couldn't you have won him over when you were in the countryside with Suti? You ended up with such a useless son-in-law.
He secretly vowed that he would keep his eyes wide open and find a daughter who would be even better than his eldest son's.
But then she thought that her daughters were not as good-looking as Suti, and their family backgrounds were not as good as Suti's. No matter how she looked, she would definitely not be as good as Suti, and she felt deflated.
"Hmph, the eldest daughter-in-law is such a fool. That person brought a lot of good stuff, and she actually said to let everyone take it all."
“She doesn’t lack these things, but I do. If I had them, my grandson wouldn’t have to worry about finding a wife.”
Grandma Su muttered to herself, feeling upset that the little brat was going to take all the stuff from that car.
"Mom, that's not all. Didn't you see that my eldest brother's family also prepared a whole cartload of dowry? They covered it with cloth as soon as we arrived."
"I just heard people in the compound say there are a lot of good things. They're not letting us see them because they don't want us to get any benefits!"
Cheng Xiaocao felt a pang of heartache upon hearing her mother-in-law's words; she had no idea what her brother-in-law was thinking.
A married daughter is like water spilled from a cup; how could she be closer than one's own nephew? If he didn't need those things, he could have left them to her son.
"But what can we do? The eldest brother is unruly. If we dare to cause trouble, he will embarrass us. If he really marries into the Guo family in a fit of anger, we will have nothing left."
Grandma Su was in so much pain and distress that she was completely helpless.
She felt her life was miserable. She wasn't doing this for herself; wasn't it all for the sake of the male members of the Su family?
She only has two grandsons, so of course she wants them to be well. The eldest is capable, so isn't it only right that he helps out his younger brother?
The little bit of money that leaked out between her fingers would be enough for her youngest son's family to live a life of luxury, but he was just so heartless.
Thinking this, Grandma Su lost her good mood when she looked at the delicious food on the table in front of her.
After Su Ti and Li Baichuan finished paying their respects to their maternal grandfather, father, and other comrades, it was the family's turn.
The first person to arrive was at Grandma Su's table, since they were close relatives and true elders.
But when they arrived, they saw Old Mrs. Su with a stern face.
