With both sets of parents present, the marriage was officially settled.
We're just waiting to choose an auspicious day for our wedding!
Yang Hongxing smiled smugly, "Look, Nianxue, what did I tell you?"
They actually brought their partner to your door! Now you can all relax!
"Absolutely. You really are a prophet." Su Nianxue laughed heartily with her.
Meanwhile, Gu Yanbai was also busy preparing his sister's dowry.
Zhou Mingjie laughed and said, "Look at you, you're just like a father."
"Of course, we raised her from a baby, little by little. To be honest, it's not much different from raising my own daughter." Gu Yanbai didn't mince words.
Gu Yanliu lost her father before she was even a year old, and then... her mother too.
Grandpa, busy making a living with his two older children, had no choice but to entrust Gu Yanliu to him.
He, a boy, learned to change her diapers and feed her rice gruel.
And so, they raised her from a baby to a young woman.
To be honest, Gu Yanliu's family has been urging her to get married all these years.
He never pressured me.
In his view, it doesn't matter whether he marries or not.
If Gu Yanliu never gets married, then... let her live at home for the rest of her life. It's not like he can't afford to support her.
Zhou Mingjie winked and said, "You're so busy every day, why don't you leave these things to your wife?"
They insist on carrying it themselves, don't they find it tiring?
What are we getting wives for? Isn't it to manage the household chores and serve us?
That's your idea, but don't drag me into it.
Besides, my wife is never idle. She takes care of our two kids, washing, cleaning, eating, drinking, and toileting.
She also had to go and oversee the tofu shop whenever she had free time, helping to manage it.
"If I were to hand these things over to her again, she would be so exhausted." Gu Yanbai didn't take his words to heart at all and busied herself with her work.
"I know. Your wife is like an ancestor, she needs to be worshipped with three sticks of incense a day." Zhou Mingjie grumbled unhappily.
The two women had a good relationship, and their families lived across from each other.
He was certain that it was all because of Su Nianxue's influence; now, his wife was increasingly disregarding him.
In the past, when he came home late, she would help him heat up the food.
But now, people completely ignore him. They either go to visit the neighbors across the street or sit on the side watching their children do their homework.
In his opinion, what's so interesting about that thing?
Moreover, they watched every single step of the way. Was that really necessary?
Besides, would she even understand it?
"Alright, stop nagging like an old woman, huh?"
Since you have so much free time, why don't you go to restaurants and electronics stores more often?
"That's perfect, I've been busy preparing my dowry these days, so I'll have to trouble you to keep an eye on things!"
Zhou Mingjie...
He didn't need to say all that to him.
Besides, is he really that busy?
It's just preparing a dowry, why does it take so long? It's not like he's never been married before.
He bet that with him doing the hard labor, it wouldn't be long before he had to go pick up his child from school.
………
When the old man received the news, he was stunned for a long time.
Then he stood up and straightened his clothes.
He put his hands behind his back and swaggered into the village.
In less than an hour, the news had spread throughout the entire village.
Those old ladies who used to secretly mock Gu Yanliu for not being able to get married and for being an old maid for life immediately changed their tune.
Praise poured out of their mouths as if it were free, and everyone complimented Gu Yanliu on his good fortune.
After waiting for so many years, she finally found a good family.
With their wedding date approaching, Gu Yanbai and his wife prepared a generous dowry for her.
The couple knew that the girl had been helping out at home all these years.
The old man also gave her the dowry money he had prepared for her.
Gu Yansong and his wife also brought Zaozao to the wedding.
Their family's life has gotten better and better in recent years.
Leaving aside tobacco, just the turtles in their fishpond last year made them a fortune.
Therefore, he was very generous, giving Gu Yanliu a red envelope containing a full thousand yuan.
Gu Yanhe did not come, saying that she had too many livestock at home and could not leave them alone.
However, the old man brought a hundred yuan, saying it was for the girl's dowry.
Looking at all her family members in the room, Gu Yanliu felt a warm feeling in her heart, but also a little reluctant to part with them.
Fortunately, she married not far away, so she can visit her sister-in-law's house often in the future.
Gu Yanliu's wedding was held at the Siyuan Hotel, and it was a very lively affair.
The old man couldn't help but burst into tears as he watched his youngest granddaughter put on her wedding dress.
After years of hard work, those little guys who used to cling to his legs and cry have finally all grown up.
They've all settled down and started families.
That's great!
Today is a joyous day; crying is considered unlucky, and he can't bring bad luck on his granddaughter.
His granddaughter needs to have a good life from now on!
Thinking of this, he quickly wiped his eyes to clean up his tears.
He's a restless person; as soon as the wedding was over, he started clamoring to go back.
Gu Yansong and his wife were in the same boat; they had no choice but to deal with a lot of family matters and didn't have much time to spare.
Seeing that they couldn't persuade them to stay, Gu Yanbai and his wife had no choice but to give in to their wishes.
Before leaving, Gu Yansong told them something: Wang Peilan was ill.
