"No." Wu Guixiang waved her hand. "That's all in the past. I'm talking about our Yunyun winning a prize in a competition."
"Is that the one going to the capital for the competition? What's it called... the invention competition?"
"Yes." Wu Guixiang raised her chin, her face full of pride. "Our Yunyun won the special prize. Do you know what a special prize is? It means first place, first place in the country!"
She raised her voice and spoke the last five words very heavily. Even on a day like this, she didn't forget to show off.
"The first-place certificate that my daughter Yunyun won is still hanging on the wall in the house, as well as the certificate given by the police a few days ago. Oh, I don't know if my wall will be big enough to hold all the medals in the future?" Wu Guixiang pretended to be distressed, but her eyes were full of boasting.
Everyone's eyes widened. Although they didn't understand what an innovation and invention competition was, they still understood the phrase "first place in the country".
Everyone's eyes turned to Su Qingyun, who was setting the table next to them, with shock. This girl's strength was really shocking them more and more.
"Aunt Wu, Yunyun is so amazing, really!"
"Yes, no wonder you love her so much. If we had a daughter like her in our family, I would love her too."
"You have it at home? What are you dreaming about? He's number one in the country, the only one of his kind in the country. Do you think he's just a cabbage in the field, you can have it whenever you want?"
"I'm just saying this." The person who said this had self-awareness.
Su Qingyun was unaware of anything, but Wu Guixiang enjoyed the flattery of the crowd as a matter of course and smiled with satisfaction.
"How much is the reward for the first place in the country?" someone asked curiously.
Wu Guixiang gave her a look of disdain. "Vulgar, so vulgar! For people like us, money isn't important. Honor is what matters."
She actually did care, mainly because her old man said that Yunyun was not an ordinary person and could not be treated like others. If she kept asking for money, her awareness would be too low.
Not only Yunyun can't mention it, but family members can't mention it either. They don't want to hold Yunyun back, so even if they care about money, they have to pretend not to care.
If Su Qingyun knew what her grandparents were thinking, she would only say that she was actually a vulgar person and money was still very important to her.
With everyone's help, the Su family felt a lot more relaxed and soon they had finished most of the work. In addition to preparing for the wedding banquet at noon, the big pot was constantly stirring and they were working in full swing.
Those who were free would sit in the yard, cracking melon seeds while waiting for the groom to bring the bride home.
Su Congwu moved quickly and brought Wu Shuhui there before noon.
"Brother Congwu and the bride are here!"
"What a beautiful bride!"
The children in the village were sharp-eyed and saw Su Congwu and Wu Shuhui coming from afar.
Everyone was excited, staring at the gate with wide eyes, and some of them were so anxious that they went out of the yard to greet them.
Su Congwu was in high spirits when he met his new wife. When he arrived at the door of his house, he stopped his bicycle and Wu Shuhui, wearing a red floral dress, got off the bicycle. Her heart was pounding and her face was a little red.
She knew that there were a lot of people waiting inside, and she would be the focus of the whole audience once she entered, so she couldn't help feeling a little nervous.
"Congwu, your wife is so beautiful! You are so lucky!" someone joked.
"Thank you, Brother Zhuzi." Wu Shuhui's face turned redder, but Su Congwu thanked her generously.
Turning around, Su Congwu extended his hand again and whispered to her, "Don't be afraid."
Wu Shuhui nodded, took a deep breath, put her hand in Su Congwu's palm, and walked into the house with him.
"Oh, they're finally here." Zhang Xinlan came out of the kitchen in a hurry. She had been waiting for a long time, and she smiled when she saw the two of them.
She looked at the beautifully dressed Wu Shuhui, and her previous displeasure faded a little. No matter what, this girl was really good-looking and presentable.
Wu Guixiang was also there, looking at the newlyweds and nodded with satisfaction, saying they were such a perfect match.
"You're right. Congwu's wife is really beautiful, with fair skin. You can tell she was raised in pampered conditions."
"That's right, that face is so tender that you can squeeze water out of it, tsk."
"This girl looks very generous and must have a good personality."
The comments of the onlookers made Wu Shuhui blush as red as an apple. It was Su Qingyun who squeezed in and saved her from the "fire".
"The bride will have to wait a while before coming out." Su Qingyun pulled Wu Shuhui into the house.
After all, there is a brief ceremony, so it’s better to go into the house first and wait a while before coming out to preserve some sense of ceremony.
