Chapter 038 Wedding (End)
In June, the sun is scorching, the heat is unbearable, and the early rice harvest is about to begin.
Bai Su sat in the pergola to enjoy the cool air like a real landlord. He fanned himself with a fan and there were two basins of ice at his feet, which were emitting cold air.
"Would you like some grapes?" The beautiful Eli was also under the awning. He sat next to Bai Su, holding a large bowl of chilled grapes in his arms.
After peeling the skin, he put it into Bai Su's mouth.
"No, no, no, you can't feed me grapes." Bai Su quickly turned his head away. "If someone feeds me grapes, I'll really become that thing."
Eli asked curiously, "What is that?"
Bai Su thought to himself, how can I explain King Zhou and Daji to you? I can only perfunctorily say, "That is what it is."
It was as if he hadn't said anything. Eli rolled his eyes and ignored him, eating the grapes by himself, one bite at a time, his eyes narrowed with joy.
Today is the day for rice harvest.
To be precise, the rice entered the harvest period three days ago.
Bai Su, relying on the rice milling machine manufacturing method he had learned in the agricultural college, worked with the carpenters to tinker with several simple manual rice milling machines. He also asked the city hall to expedite the delivery of several machines to his farm in Oat Town.
Now, two farms, two hundred acres of land, and an estimated three million kilograms of grain are sprouting from the fields.
Countless workers came to Bai Su's farm to join in the harvest.
By the way, because Bai Su provided a large number of jobs for the town during this period and solved the unemployment problem of civilians due to soaring prices, he was exceptionally elected and entered the Senate as an agricultural representative, becoming a nominal civil servant.
It can be considered as achieving a small goal before traveling through time.
Bai Su also wanted to go to the fields to harvest millet, but for some special reasons, he was stopped by his friends.
At this moment, it was almost noon. Mrs. Susan and Lisa were busy in the restaurant which had not yet officially opened, cooking for the part-time workers. They were afraid that Bai Su would not be idle, so they built a canopy and sent Eli, the only one who could intimidate Bai Su, to watch him.
So this scene appeared——
In the fields, men were busy harvesting rice; in the factory, women were carefully husking the rice and then packing it in brown paper bags with the words "Hexia Farm" printed on them; outside the farm, hundreds of convoys were on standby. Whenever a package of rice was delivered and filled a car, several representatives would come forward to check it. After confirming that it was correct, it would be immediately escorted by a team of Centaur guards to a nearby town.
More were transported to the dock.
The western continent, which was more severely affected by the hurricane, is the main target of this disaster relief.
This is also the reason why Bai Su was forbidden to work these days - he had to maintain a good enough mental state to attend his own wedding.
Yes, a wedding.
After several weeks of discussion and preparation, the wedding venue was finally set on the luxury cruise ship given to them by Keos's parents.
Bai Su was stunned when he saw the giant ship for the first time.
Keos, however, was unconcerned and said, "Didn't I mention that? My mother is a freight merchant. From shipping to carriages and horses, everything is her business."
Keos pointed to the carriage that was being loaded at the dock.
Then, Bai Su effortlessly saw a logo made of a centaur silhouette on the back of each carriage.
"That sign is..."
"It's me."
"Then the carriage we took when we went to Oatmeal Town is also like that?"
"yes."
Bai Su took a breath of cold air.
He originally thought that he was already a big farmer standing at the top of the wealth chain.
How come my boyfriend seems quiet on the surface, but actually has such a strong family background?
Bai Su was completely convinced.
He looked at Keos, who had a calm expression and showed no pride in his status as a wealthy second-generation man, and said sincerely, "After we get married, will you give me all your property to manage, and let me give you pocket money every month, about 200 yuan a month?"
Keos:?
…
Thinking of those interesting memories, Bai Su couldn't help laughing out loud.
"Bah!" Eli spat out a mouthful of sour grape skins and said in disgust, "Okay, stop looking like you're reminiscing about sweet memories! I promise, if you listen to me, everything tonight will only be sweeter."
Bai Su reached out and took a grape, put it in her mouth, and asked him, "How sweet is it?"
"It must be a sweetness that you will never forget in your life." Eli threw the empty ice bowl aside, stood up, took Bai Su's hand and took him home.
Being urged, Bai Su began to feel a sour, urgent and tight sense of joy in his heart.
He took one last look back at the rice fields: the harvesting work was nearing completion, all the workers were working around the clock, and with several representatives sent by the city hall watching over them, all the paddy would be threshed into rice and bagged and loaded onto trucks by the afternoon.
The same is true in Oat Town.
There was nothing for Bai Su to worry about anymore.
So now, he had to go back home and dress himself up properly under Eli's supervision.
To welcome the sea wedding that Keos had prepared for him for a long time.
·
Dusk, port.
The lights are on, and the romance is lingering.
Faria had just finished directing the loading of all the cargoes and was sweating profusely, but he did not dare to stop to rest. He just wiped his forehead with a silk scarf and hurried onto the deck to find his boss, his good friend, and the absolute protagonist of the day.
The groom is Mr. Keos.
From a distance, he saw the young Centaur in a formal suit standing on the deck, holding a glass of champagne, and greeting the guests who came to the wedding with a serious expression.
Just like he always did, he looked down on everything indifferently, as if nothing caught his eye.
It wasn't until he saw another groom passing by that his expression softened a little.
"Hey, man." Faria walked forward and put his arm around Keos's shoulders. "The ship is about to sail. You should go to the banquet hall and get ready."
Keos nodded, adjusted the iris on his chest, and walked towards the banquet hall.
On the other side, Bai Su, who had just come out of the central kitchen, was being pushed towards the dressing room by the extremely anxious Eli.
"You have to go to the kitchen and get covered in cooking fumes to feel comfortable, right?" Eli frowned and said angrily.
Bai Su... Bai Su couldn't find any words to argue.
He went to the central kitchen mainly to check on the progress of Lisa and the others - tonight's main course was Chinese food, a complete Chinese meal from rice to stir-fried dishes.
He was afraid that the more he argued, the angrier his newly recognized relative would be.
I had no choice but to accept these complaints and gently soothe her, "Honey, perhaps instead of criticizing me, it would be a better choice to use the time you spend helping me dress up?"
Eli snorted impatiently, but his hands moved very skillfully.
He is the kind of person who says one thing but does another.
…
Bai Su's invitation letter was very well prepared.
In addition to the civil servants who were going to the Western Continent to provide disaster relief on the cruise ship, neighbors, friends, partners, and all familiar people were invited to this wedding at sea.
As the commander-in-chief of this disaster relief operation and the father of one of the grooms, Minister Robbies could not be more proud.
He changed his usual meticulous, arrogant and unapproachable demeanor, and stood at the entrance of the banquet hall with his wife Mela, warmly welcoming everyone who came to congratulate him.
With the help of the cream cake made by Mrs. Susan, the atmosphere was very harmonious. People gathered in twos and threes, chatting, looking comfortable and at ease.
When the music abruptly stopped, everyone spontaneously walked to the chairs with their names on them and sat down, waiting for today's protagonist to make his grand entrance.
The first person to appear was a handsome man with long white hair and wearing an intricate robe.
"It's the high priest!" someone exclaimed in a low voice.
They were able to invite the high priest to be the master of ceremonies today... Everyone looked at Minister Robis standing in the front. Sure enough, the expression on his face was enough to show the pride in his heart.
Then, a beam of light hit the door.
One was a black-haired young man, the other half was a centaur young man, two equally handsome young men, each holding a ribbon in their hands, and the ribbons were connected by a beautiful flower ball between the two of them.
Then, several Shetland Centaurs in little suits came in from behind them and walked in front of the two grooms, jumping all the way and scattering glitter and flowers so that the two grooms could walk on the sparkling and romantic path they had set up.
They walked before the officiant.
There wasn't much ceremony involved, the high priest simply performed a magnificent magic in front of everyone.
Two golden vines grew out from the blood vessels at their wrists, intertwined with each other, as if completing an exchange of unbreakable vows, crawled into each other's bodies, and then disappeared.
This is the love magic of sharing life.
All the guests stared with their eyes wide open, unwilling to miss this rare magical scene.
"I don't feel anything special." Bai Su blinked.
The high priest smiled and said, "Tonight, you will experience that 'special feeling' - I have given you a wedding gift that will allow Keos to transform into a human when necessary... Let me think about it, um, Garcia calls it a buff."
"Wow!"
"Garcia asked me to bring his blessing," the high priest whispered. "By the way, I hope you can lend me Eli after the ceremony."
Bai Su quietly gave him an OK gesture and said in a low voice, "There's a vacant room on the second floor. Just tell me Eli's name."
He knew about the emotional entanglement between Eli and the high priest, and couldn't help but want to bring them together.
The smile on the high priest's face deepened, and it was obvious that he was very satisfied with Bai Su's arrangement.
So, he waved his hand and generously gave them a romantic magic effect, making glitter and petals float in the air. Under the ambiguous light on the boat, it looked romantic and affectionate.
After a brief silence, the crowd erupted in thunderous applause.
Then, with Keos and Bai Su as the lead dancers, everyone present took the hands of their loved ones, family members, friends, and even strangers they had just met, to participate in this romantic wedding dance together.
The children who can't dance, the little tigers, and the little ponies are working on the giant cream cake placed in the center.
A young man with golden hair raised his glass to Bai Su from a distance, then left the banquet hall alone and went to the deck.
Do I know him? Bai Su was a little confused.
The slow singing and dancing are bound to make people distracted.
Suddenly, Bai Su saw with his sharp eyes that in the corner, Eli was arguing with the high priest.
The beautiful lady was so angry that she slapped the high priest hard.
The seemingly unfathomable man was not angry. Instead, he held the snow leopard in his arms and gently stroked his back.
"Keos, look quickly... um..." Bai Su was just about to invite his lover to watch the gossip together.
But she was held up and kissed in an irresistible manner.
He opened his eyes wide, and at such a close distance, he could see his lover's affectionate and lingering gaze that seemed to make him melt.
"I won't look." Her lips were bitten gently, and in her ear was his low, restrained appeal for love, "Don't look at others either. Tonight, only look at me."
My heart was beating so hard it was about to burst through my chest.
Bai Su closed her eyes and tried to respond to the kiss.
"good."
·
On the deck, the blond man who had previously toasted with Bai Su was quietly looking at the sea, accompanied by Minister Robbies.
"Your Highness, you called me out?"
"Robis, I always feel like something is wrong, as if..."
Before they finished speaking, they saw a huge wave suddenly hit the originally calm sea.
Getting closer and closer!
"Buzz—"
It sounded like the roar of some giant sea beast.
The huge wave caused by the hurricane was frozen, and at this time, the blond man and Robbies finally came back to their senses from the shock.
The two looked at each other and quickly ran into the banquet hall...

The author has something to say:
【Question and Answer】
1. Who is the blond man? Why is he here? What about the giant sea monster?
2. In the context, why was Eli angry with the high priest?
3. Is the look in Keos's eyes when he looks at Bai Su innocent? Is he truly a pure and innocent pony?

1. Woohoo! I finally gave everyone the sweet ending I had in mind! Thank you to all my readers!
2. The ending is a happy one! Since this article is a connected unit, the ending here will serve as an introduction to the fourth unit. Bai Su and others will also make guest appearances in subsequent stories.
3. The next unit, before the timeline goes back, is about a synaesthesia (emphasis!) story of an angel and a funny boy, the sweetheart Saint. Unlike our innocent ponies, this one will be very strange and very synaesthesia...
