The next day was Su Congwu’s wedding day, and also a big day for the Su family.
Su Congwu got up early in the morning. After a good night's sleep, he looked radiant and rosy-cheeked. He put on his new custom-made clothes, stood straight, and looked more energetic. Even Wu Guixiang, who always disliked him, praised him.
"He looks like a good boy."
Su Congwu: “…” Then what was he like in his grandmother’s eyes before?
Forget it, it’s better not to ask. If he asks, he will be hit hard. He doesn’t want his good mood to be ruined today.
There are a lot of things to do today and some are busy. Soon, the whole family got up.
It was just dawn outside. Su Congwu took a look, took Su Qingyun's bicycle key, and said to his family, "Then I'll leave first." He had to go to the county to pick up Shuhui.
"Go quickly and be careful on the road." His father Su Aidang advised.
"Okay." Su Congwu chuckled, "Everyone wait for me to bring back the bride."
"Please stop showing those big teeth of yours." Wu Guixiang couldn't stand it anymore. "Don't come to my house anymore. You're just laughing like a fool. You should know the etiquette. Do you understand?"
"I understand, grandma." Su Congwu walked out of the door feeling aggrieved.
However, as soon as he went out, he rode his bicycle and saw a blue-purple halo in the dim sky. The faint morning light shone through. Su Congwu thought that his sweetheart was waiting for him, and his whole body became hot. He couldn't help but speed up and run towards his happiness.
As soon as he left, the Su family started to get busy preparing for today's wedding banquet. Just like when Su Congjun got married, they were too busy to handle it, so they asked the villagers for help. Most of them were able to help on time. After all, they could get paid for helping to cook, and they could take the leftover food from the wedding banquet back home to improve their lives. Why not?
Borrowing tables and chairs, pasting wedding characters, arranging some dried fruits, peanuts, melon seeds and the like, these processes became easy after doing them once. The whole family except Wen Sisi worked together, so it wasn't too tiring.
The Su family is having a wedding, and the people of Luoshui Village have been looking forward to it since the day they heard the news. The reason is simple: the last wedding banquet of Su Congjun of the Su family is still talked about with relish. The food was delicious and the portions were large. Therefore, this time when Su Congwu gets married, the villagers have been looking forward to it for a long time.
As soon as the sun rose, everyone in the village who had no work to do came. Although they had to eat, they were not too tactless and still helped with many things.
Talk while they do it.
"Hey, have you seen Congwu's wife? I saw her last time, and she's also very pretty! The two daughters-in-law of the Su family are both good-looking. Do you think these brothers chose their wives based on their looks?"
"Which man doesn't like good-looking girls? However, the two daughters-in-law of the Su family are not only good-looking, but their jobs and family conditions are also very good. They are city girls and have formal jobs. Wow."
"Do you know that Congwu paid a betrothal gift of 88 yuan to marry this wife? This gift is too high!"
"Everyone knows this. Zhang Xinlan keeps going around the village, saying how heartbroken she is that her son spent 88 yuan to marry a city girl. Everyone knows that Old Lady Wu paid the lion's share of the betrothal money, so why is she so heartbroken?"
Although they are a group of illiterate villagers, their sources of information are very wide. Basically, there is no news they cannot find out as long as they are willing. In order to satisfy their curiosity, they will ask others to find out even if it means going through many twists and turns in the mountain road.
Su Qingyun has lamented more than once that these people in their village are all good at collecting intelligence.
"Old Mrs. Wu is really generous. She is willing to give such a high betrothal gift. It seems that she is really satisfied with her granddaughter-in-law."
"Brothers Congjun and Congwu are both married, and Congjun's wife is pregnant. Of the three Su brothers, only Congwen, who is still in the army, is left. I wonder what kind of girl that guy will bring back in the future?"
"Congwen is a soldier now, so the wife he finds won't be any worse than these two brothers, right?"
"But Congwen stays in the army every day, so he can't meet any young girls. Aren't the troops just full of men?"
"You don't understand. My old Chen's nephew's cousin's aunt's brother-in-law's nephew is in the army. The female soldiers in the army are so beautiful, outstanding in every way. The young men in the army like them very much. Congwen is good-looking, so he will definitely be able to bring one back."
"The Su family is getting better and better every day. We can't even catch up with them."
A group of aunts and grandmas were chattering non-stop about the three brothers of the Su family, but they all tacitly avoided mentioning Su Qingyun, because they all knew that the girl of the Su family was different. She was like a golden phoenix that flew out of their mountain village and was destined not to stay here.
They didn't dare to imagine what kind of man would be able to marry her in the future.
Wu Guixiang heard the people mumbling there. She turned her eyes away and squeezed over, saying casually, "What are you talking about?"
"What else can we talk about besides your family's capable warrior and marrying a city girl?" Everyone was very respectful. Their faces were full of joy as they congratulated him, "Congratulations! Who knows, maybe there will be another happy event in your family in a while."
Wu Guixiang smiled reservedly, then said casually, "That doesn't have to wait for a while, my family has a happy event coming up."
"What? Is there any happy news?"
A group of people looked at each other, what good news could there be?
"Aunt Wu, are you talking about the award given to your Yunyun and Teacher Qin?" someone asked.
