The Wang family wedding scene.
"Hey, Aunt Wang, your outfit looks great today!"
"You think it looks good too, right?"
"Hmm, it looks beautiful! Which tailor shop made this? The craftsmanship is really excellent."
"Where? Tailor shops can't make this style."
I bought it at that clothing store on the corner. They say it's sourced from a big city. Look how nice this style is!
People usually go to the new house to see the bride and chat jokingly.
But today everyone seems to have forgotten about that, and is only focused on talking about the newly opened clothing store.
The Wang family members looked rather displeased.
What might be a lively occasion for others is not a good thing for their family.
Their family's tailor shop made a living by making clothes for these neighbors.
A new clothing store has opened on the street, and judging from the conversations of these people, the clothes in this store are exactly what they want!
This is extremely bad!
If everyone rushes to buy ready-made clothes, who will still come to them to make clothes?
Thinking about it this way, the Wang family felt heavy-hearted.
Especially Wang Zhiguo's mother, who immediately pulled Wang Zhiguo into the room to talk.
"I told you long ago not to marry Su Jiaojiao, but you wouldn't listen."
"Now look what's happened! The moment they walked in, they scattered all our family's good fortune."
Wang Zhiguo looked helpless. "Mom, what does this have to do with Jiaojiao?"
It's not like she asked them to open a clothing store!
Besides, what era are we living in? You still believe in these feudal superstitions?
The radio keeps talking about breaking down these ideas, so don't say it in front of others. People will laugh at you.
"No matter what era, these are all passed down from our ancestors. How can we just throw them away?"
Besides, it's better to believe something is true than to believe it isn't.
I told you she was unlucky, but you didn't believe me. Now you should believe me!
"Mom, what's the point of saying all this now?"
"They've already come in, I can't exactly send them back, can I?" Wang Zhiguo rubbed his temples, looking annoyed.
Su Jiaojiao sat shyly in the bridal chamber, completely unaware of what was happening outside.
She was waiting for her aunts to come in and talk to her, but... apart from a few relatives who glanced at her, no one else came in.
She didn't take it seriously, assuming it was just a local custom.
As she listened to the lively sounds outside, she dreamed of a happy future.
From now on, she will no longer be a burden on the Su family.
From today onwards, she is a resident of this town.
With Zhiguo's excellent skills, supporting her would be more than enough.
She no longer needs to work in the fields under the scorching sun; she only needs to help her in-laws with housework and be considerate of Zhiguo to have enough to eat and drink.
As for Su Nianxue, she married a scoundrel and had to work hard making tofu just to support herself.
Tomorrow is market day, and she's determined to go to the market and give her a good thrashing.
Five yuan? Who would want that?
While she was lost in her thoughts, the banquet had already begun in the courtyard.
Seeing that there were no people around, Wu Xiaomei locked the shop door and went to Siyuan Restaurant.
"Hey, our Boss Wu is back."
How's business today?
"Is that even a question? Just by looking at her, you can tell business was good today!"
As soon as Wu Xiaomei entered the room, everyone started teasing her.
Wu Xiaomei glanced at the people at the table, her smile brightening even more. "Hmm, not bad."
Thank you all for taking the time to come and support me!
Today, everyone must eat and drink well, and don't even think about saving me money!
"That's right, people say the more you eat, the more you'll have, so we're not going to skimp on you!"
"That's better!" she said, walking over to Gu Yanbai's side, where there was still an empty seat.
Gu Yanbai realized her intention and kicked Zhou Mingjie hard under the table.
Zhou Mingjie was happily bragging to someone when he was suddenly kicked. He was not about to accept it.
Just as he was about to kick back the way he came, he saw Gu Yanbai blink at him a few times.
He immediately understood and smoothly shifted his position.
Gu Yanbai is really something. Now that he's married, he's become so pretentious that he won't even sit next to a female colleague.
In his opinion, of all the men in the room, he was the only one who considered Wu Xiaomei a woman.
Wu Xiaomei's smile froze. "Zhou Mingjie, are you sick in the head?"
If you keep changing seats, who's going to sit on your hot seat?
"What if you have hemorrhoids or something? Wouldn't that be contagious to others?"
Without blushing or skipping a beat, Zhou Mingjie stood up and casually switched the two chairs, saying, "Come on, you sit here."
I just sat down, and I haven't even warmed up yet!
If all else fails, I'll go get you a new one.
"No need, this one is fine!" Wu Xiaomei sat down angrily. "I just wanted to remind you that this kind of behavior is not good."
"Alright, alright, I know you're being picky, Miss. I was wrong!"
Seeing that everyone had been waiting for a long time, Wu Xiaomei signaled to serve the dishes as soon as she sat down.
Soon, a table of delicious-looking and fragrant dishes was prepared.
We all knew each other, and everyone was quite relaxed.
Having just eaten half a full meal, Wu Xiaomei started drinking with everyone again.
This time, she directly extended her glass to Gu Yanbai, "Yanbai, we're the only two people at this table who haven't had a drink yet!"
"Today is my grand opening, you absolutely have to have a good drink with me."
