As the two were talking, there was a commotion outside. It was the Wen family's parents who arrived on the earliest bus.
Li Xiulian quickly welcomed them in, smiling, "Oh, Qin family, you're really early. Come and sit down."
Su Congjun, who was also wearing new clothes, took the things from Wen's father and mother. He was wearing a navy blue formal jacket, a white shirt underneath, and black pants. He looked energetic, with joy in his eyes.
Wen Kaifu smiled and said, "Congjun is really in high spirits today."
Su Congjun scratched his head embarrassedly.
Mother Wen asked hurriedly: "Where is Sisi? Where is she?"
Li Xiulian pointed to Su Congjun's room and said, "He's in Congjun's room. Qingyun is with him. You can go and have a look."
"Master, Madam, I will take you there." Su Congjun volunteered.
"Hey, what are you doing?" Li Xiulian quickly grabbed Su Congjun and said, "I've told you several times that you can't see the bride before the auspicious time!"
"I forgot." Su Congjun really forgot about this matter.
"Let's go and see for ourselves."
Wen's father and mother walked into Su Congjun's room and looked at the red everywhere, the bright red wedding quilt, the red wedding characters on the wall, and the red thermos on the floor. They nodded in their hearts. Although the Su family was a rural family, they also put their heart into it and did not treat their daughter badly.
Su Qingyun immediately greeted them, "Uncle, aunt, hello, come and sit down."
"Mom and Dad, you're here so early?" Wen Sisi turned around and asked in surprise.
When Wen's mother saw her daughter wearing a red dress and looking shyly waiting to be married, she burst into tears instantly after not sleeping all night.
"Sisi."
"Mom, don't cry." Wen Sisi panicked when she saw her mother crying. Tears instantly welled up in her eyes and she was about to let them fall.
Su Qingyun was anxious, "Sister Sisi, you can't cry, or your makeup will be ruined."
Wen Kaifu frowned, "It's your daughter's wedding day, why are you crying?"
"I'm happy." Mother Wen wiped her face and touched her daughter's face again, "Don't cry, neither of us will cry. Today is your big day, you should get married happily."
Besides happiness, there was more reluctance in her eyes. The feeling of marrying a daughter-in-law is always different from that of marrying a daughter.
Afraid that standing here would make the situation even more emotional, Wen's father and mother left after seeing their daughter and asked the Su family if there was anything they needed help with.
"No need, you two just take a rest. There are so many of us here." Li Xiu Lian said with a smile.
It's not just the Su family who are busy today. Marriage is a big happy event in the village now, and people who are familiar with each other have come to help. Just for the tables, chairs, dishes and chopsticks for the wedding banquet at noon, they were all borrowed from several families, otherwise there would not be enough.
Seeing that the sun was getting high in the sky, Wu Guixiang asked Su Congwu to set up a table in the middle of the yard and put the candies, melon seeds, peanuts and other dried fruit snacks they had bought on the table for the guests who would be arriving soon.
Not long after, the villagers stepped into the Su family's courtyard one after another. Nowadays, it is not customary to give favors when attending a wedding banquet. Most of them bring some vegetables. The more generous ones bring some meat to add some dishes to the wedding banquet at noon. Some also bring candy. They take whatever they have at home.
Everyone sat in the yard, eating melon seeds and chatting.
"The Su family's happy events are one after another."
"Who says it's not true? Look at the He family from Changxiu Village who were making trouble earlier. It's only been a short time since they joined the army and now they're marrying girls from the city. They're so much better than that girl."
"Hey, you, why are you bringing up that girl on her wedding day? Aren't you just trying to make things worse?"
"Oh, right, right, I shouldn't say that. Look, aren't those people sitting there the parents of the other girl?"
"It seems so. I heard that the bride's father was a military master and an old worker in the steel factory."
"Doesn't the guy who joined the army also work at the steel mill? The Su family only has two people working in the city, and they have a relative from the city, so they're really lucky."
"What's the big deal? If you ask me, the Su family's daughter is the most capable. There are so many workers in the city, how many of them have you seen who can be reported in the newspapers and praised by the whole province like Qingyun?"
"Exactly. I heard Wu Guixiang say a few days ago that Qingyun received another letter of praise from the provincial government. He was so proud."
"The Su family has never produced any bad people. Wu Guixiang's three sons are all top-notch fighters. The blessings of this family are still to come."
"Okay, let's stop talking. The banquet is about to start. I wonder how the Su family's wedding banquet will go?"
The villagers looked at the smoking steamer in the yard. The air was filled with an enticing aroma, making everyone drool.
