Ye Zhiyu wasn't worried that Lu Chen would run out of things to say; he was usually very good at coaxing people. It was just a little embarrassing for him to say it like that.
She guessed correctly; a faint blush appeared beneath Lu Chen's wheat-colored skin.
The people around started to jeer.
"sweet Nothing!"
"sweet Nothing!"
Lu Chen pursed his lips, feeling embarrassed, but his eyes shone with an alarming light.
A deep voice rang out: "I'm not good with sweet words. I just want to say, Ayu, I fell in love with you the first time I saw you. After that, I went through struggles, feelings of inferiority, and giving up because I felt I wasn't good enough for you."
He paused and then said, "But later, I found that I couldn't face you falling into someone else's arms and becoming someone else's wife, so I gradually opened your heart and settled in your heart. For the rest of my life, I will do my best to be good to you."
"I love you!"
Wow!
The young man listened very attentively, silently memorizing the information so he could use it someday.
Li Yuzhe was also on the list, but after thinking about it for a moment, he realized that it didn't seem to suit him.
Liu Shengnan muttered, "You still don't know how to say that? What exactly constitutes sweet talk?"
Wu Wenwen patted her with a smile, "Don't worry about it, the bride has already left."
After Lu Chen said "I love you," Ye Zhiyu opened the door and came out.
Their eyes met, and neither could see anyone else.
The crowd fell silent for a moment, staring at the ethereal girl. In a daze, Lu Chen felt as if Ye Zhiyu was about to ride the wind away.
In a panic, he quickly walked up to her, picked Ye Zhiyu up in his arms, and stared at her without blinking.
"Oh, you've gotten a new bride."
"He's getting a new wife."
The children, innocent and joyful, waited for the hosts to scatter wedding candies and eat wedding noodles, running from one end of the village to the other.
Since they lived in the same village, the distance was already short, and it would be even shorter if they rode bicycles, so they chose to walk. However, Lu Chen didn't want Ye Zhiyu to touch the ground, so he carried her the whole way.
This prompted some experienced people to make a few sarcastic remarks.
"Oh my, Lu Chen really dotes on his wife."
"Yes, it hurts to see you like this."
And then there was the one who had just witnessed Lu Chen answer all the questions correctly, grabbing his son's ear and giving him a stern lecture.
“Study hard! Look at Lu Chen. If you don’t study hard, you won’t even be able to get a wife. Isn’t that embarrassing?”
The one who was being lectured was naturally indignant: "I'm not going to marry a sent-down youth, and it's not like every family does it this way when they get a wife."
"What did you say?" He cowered as soon as his parents yelled at him.
"It's nothing, it's nothing. I was just saying I should study hard."
Ye Jinlin and Su Zheng'an exchanged a glance, their eyes full of satisfaction, and followed with smiles. Although they still couldn't stand him taking their daughter away, there was no doubt that he was indeed a good man.
The educated youth settlement gradually emptied out; they all went to the Lu family's house, leaving only Li Xi and Fu Tingshen in the courtyard.
Fu Tingshen stared blankly at the spot where Ye Zhiyu had just left, his mind still replaying the face that haunted his dreams.
If he hadn't tried to break free from his father's control, had obediently stayed with Ye Zhiyu, and hadn't gotten entangled with Li Xi...
Now I'm the one marrying her, and they'll be an enviable couple.
"Brother Ting Shen, Brother Ting Shen..."
Fu Tingshen snapped back to reality, lowered his head to conceal his expression, and then looked up, "What's wrong?"
Li Xi, who had seen everything, flashed a cold glint in her eyes, but a smile still lingered on her lips: "I should be asking you what's wrong? You didn't respond when I called you several times."
Fu Tingshen tried to remain calm, but his body had already stiffened reflexively: "I just thought of a question."
Li Xi: "Really? Let's not think about it for now. Let's go watch Zhiyu's wedding. After all, one of us is her good friend, and the other is someone she used to like."
Fu Tingshen felt a chill creep up from the soles of his feet.
"Why are you so stiff? Don't you want to go? Why? Because you didn't..."
Fu Tingshen guessed what she was going to say and interrupted her directly: "Yes, of course I'll go, it's for the banquet."
Li Xi stared at him for a full minute before looking away and heading towards the Lu family home with him.
He didn't want to go, but she insisted. She wanted him to watch Ye Zhiyu marry someone else. Wouldn't he regret it then? Well then, he could watch with his eyes wide open and properly mourn his dead love.
Hehehehehehehaha...
Lu Chen carried Ye Zhiyu all the way.
"Put me down, I can walk by myself."
Lu Chen shook his head, his eyes fixed on Ye Zhiyu from the moment he started looking at her.
At this time, weddings did not involve veils or headscarves.
Ye Zhiyu felt a little uncomfortable under his gaze, and tried to look away but refused to meet his eyes: "Why are you staring at me? It's not like we've never met before."
"I've seen you before, but I've never seen you marry me."
Ye Zhiyu glared at him, "What's wrong? Did the sweet talk test just now open up your meridians?"
"My feelings for you have always been genuine."
Ye Zhiyu calmed down, but anyone who touched her face at that moment would know it was burning hot.
The wedding was very simple. After bowing to both sets of parents and exchanging vows, the couple changed their address to each other, and that was it.
They went around toasting each table, and were encouraged to drink from the same cup as each other and bite into the same apple.
After that, Lu Chen kicked everyone out of the room.
"Brother Lu, please, let us see your wife again."
But Lu Chen wouldn't listen to a word. He hadn't even had enough of his own treasures yet, why should he show them to them?
"If you're tired, take a rest first. I'll have Niu Niu bring you some food later. Don't worry about anything."
There used to be an unwritten rule that brides could not eat or drink on their wedding day.
You have to wait until all the guests have left, because it's embarrassing for the bride to be looking for a toilet everywhere.
Ye Zhiyu looked around Lu Chen's room. She didn't ask Lu Chen to renovate the room because after he went to university, the whole family would probably move to the city in a few years, so it wasn't necessary.
However, it's clear that Lu Chen made some changes; the previous walls were now filled with wallpapers that weren't made with proper technology.
The floor has been completely renovated, as have the dressing table and wardrobe.
Her wardrobe was also moved in, saving us the trouble of taking it out and rearranging it. Apart from some scattered items piled up, it didn't take up much space.
There was a gentle knock on the door, and Lu Yun poked her head in.
Ye Zhiyu smiled and waved. She ran over with a tray in her hand, on which was her food: three dishes, a soup, and a bowl of rice.
"Sister Ye, you're finally my sister-in-law now. Can I sleep with you tonight?"
Ye Zhiyu was uncharacteristically speechless, "Uh..."
Lu Yun lowered her head in disappointment. "Is it not allowed?"
Ye Zhiyu could only pass the buck to Lu Chen: "I can't make that decision. You have to ask your second brother. If he agrees, then I'll agree." Of course he wouldn't agree!
Lu Yun became even more dejected. "That probably won't work. My eldest brother lets me sleep with my sister-in-law, and my second brother will definitely do the same."
