"How can she not be stingy? She still owes foreign debts! Didn't you see that the female educated youth who lived with her are nowhere to be seen?"

"He's so unpopular, yet he keeps bragging about how amazing his partner is, as if he's afraid we don't know. If I had known that he wouldn't even get a piece of wedding candy, I wouldn't have gotten up so early to help!"

"Who says it's not..."

“…”

While they were chatting and laughing, Wang Wanning and the other two who were sleeping together also woke up.

"Are you really not going to go? My falling out with her is my own business, and you don't have any deep hatred against her. If you don't even show up at her wedding, she'll find fault with you and say something bad about you later..."

Wang Wanning looked at Zhao Jie and Jiang Ling who were lying in bed and refused to get up, and whispered some advice to them.

“No!”

Zhao Jie turned over and hugged Wang Wanning's arm. "Are you afraid that she will say something bad? If she dares to say something bad, I will tear her mouth apart!"

She is not a pushover and is not afraid of Xu Xiangling at all!

"I won't go either! She didn't let you play with us before, but now we're playing together, I won't go to her and cause trouble!"

Jiang Ling also turned over and hugged Wang Wanning's other arm.

Wang Wanning looked at the two people with clear camps and felt moved. The unpleasantness that Xu Xiangling brought to that idea was quickly diluted by the two new friends!

As roosters crowed and cooking fires rose in Xiejia Village, the backyard became more and more lively.

Old wives and young wives all came with their children to join in the fun. They would not miss the chance to say a word of joy and get a handful of melon seeds and two pieces of candy. However...

"A pinch of melon seeds? Just a pinch of melon seeds? Where's the sugar?"

"On this happy day, there's not even any wedding candy. Does she not want to live a happy married life anymore or what?"

"Who needs a handful of melon seeds from her? I shouldn't have said congratulations earlier! Humph!"

“…”

“…”

The neighbors who received the handful of melon seeds from Xu Xiangling didn't say anything openly, but they turned their heads around and talked about it!

Pick!

Too stingy!

Even when people in their village get married, there are melon seeds and wedding candies!

Xu Xiangling came from the city and married an officer from Beijing. She played the game very hard, but she managed to get rid of them with just a handful of melon seeds!

The old women and daughters-in-law who got up early to join in the fun complained bitterly, and the children were also dissatisfied when they saw their empty hands.

On the wedding day, Xu Xiangling made a big scene and lost her face. She lay on the bed crying out of grievance, and her freshly put on bridal makeup was ruined by her crying!

After what Wang Wanning did yesterday, she had forgotten the most important thing!

Huo Mingda not only didn't ask anyone to post wedding characters, he didn't even ask anyone to send wedding candies or anything like that!

The melon seeds she was giving out now were the snacks she had bought with the money she had borrowed from Wang Wanning. The quantity was not much to begin with, and she had hidden them away and refused to give any to Wang Wanning. There were simply not enough to give out!

As the news about Xu Xiangling's stinginess spread, the neighbors who had originally wanted to come and congratulate her turned around and left, no longer joining in the fun!

For a while, the backyard was deserted and only the old village chief's wife was still holding on.

Xu Xiangling felt extremely aggrieved. While she complained that Huo Mingda was not thorough enough, she hated Wang Wanning even more!

If Wang Wanning hadn't made that scene yesterday, would she have ignored these things?

Now, on such a happy day, she has become a joke!

Xu Xiangling thought that it was unfair enough that such a thing happened on her wedding day, but she never expected that even greater injustice was yet to come!

Because, the time to pick up the bride has arrived, and Huo Mingda has not brought anyone with him!

"We must have been delayed on the way. It's okay. Let's wait a little longer!"

The old village chief's daughter-in-law had a kind face and gently comforted Xu Xiangling, who was wearing her wedding dress.

"Um!"

Xu Xiangling responded and waited patiently.

But……

First wait, the bride-picking party didn’t come!

Second class, still not here!

Until it was almost noon and time for dinner, Xu Xiangling could not wait any longer and rushed out of the room crying!

"Where are the people? Where is the bride's receptionist? Did they take the wrong road?"

Seeing the old village chief coming towards her, Xu Xiangling asked while crying.

"The bride-picking party is led by Xiao Huo, and he is familiar with the way to the village, so how could he go wrong?"

The old village chief and several village cadres were going to the town to attend the wedding banquet. Now that they had even changed their clothes, they were also confused when they learned that the groom did not come to pick him up. "How about we take you to the town to see if something has happened?"

The marriage certificate was obtained, the banquet was arranged, but the groom did not come to pick up the bride...

Even if you want to regret an engagement, don't regret it this much!

The old village chief and others intuitively felt that there was something wrong!

Seeing that it was almost time for dinner, how could Xu Xiangling handle it?

Although there was no bride-picking scene, and it was embarrassing for her to go to the state-owned hotel by herself, but the marriage certificate was already obtained, and she and Huo Mingda were already husband and wife. This marriage was her only hope for a turnaround, and she could not let it fail no matter what!

So Xu Xiang got on the commune's tractor and followed the old village chief and others.

Seeing this, the neighbors started talking to each other again...

But these did not affect the Xie family at all!

Even though they lived in the front and back yards, the Xie family had no interest in joining in Xu Xiangling's fun. They just did what they were supposed to do, pretending nothing happened!

After breakfast, Xie Zhenting asked Gu Nanzhi to call his family to his room and told them that he would find an opportunity to move back to the backyard, but Xie Jianbang refused.

"Brother, why are you chasing away the educated youth? Can you not chase them away?"

The eldest brother wanted his family to move back to the backyard, and Xie Jianbang had no objection.

He knew his elder brother's identity and knew that he must have his reasons for doing so, but...

Wang Wanning still lives in the backyard. Her feet were swollen again yesterday...

It would have been a good thing if he didn't hear the conversation between the three female educated youth last night. After hearing it, Xie Jianbang couldn't help but have some different thoughts about Wang Wanning. If he could avoid letting her move out, he naturally didn't want to let her move out.

Although Xie Zhenting has never been in a relationship, he still understands the principle that those who are close to water get the moon first!

Seeing my brother's hesitant look on his face, I guessed what he was thinking.

"Wang Zhiqing doesn't have to move out. Leave a room for her to live in!"

Although the backyard is an old house, it was bought when Xie Zhenting's grandparents were still alive, and it has more rooms than the front yard.

It doesn’t matter which room Wang Zhiqing lives in.

"Really? That's great!"

Xie Jianbang breathed a sigh of relief and smiled.

"Why are you so happy that Wang Zhiqing won't move away?"

Upon seeing this, Xie's mother immediately turned her head to look at him, "Second brother, you don't really have any feelings for Wang Zhiqing, do you? I'm telling you, don't be so enthusiastic and then turn around and act half-heartedly..."

"Mom, what are you talking about? I just took into consideration that her foot injury hasn't healed yet and it's inconvenient to move!"

Xie's mother: "Haha!"

He sneered and said nothing.

Seeing that the matter was settled, Xie Zhenting reminded Xie Jianbang, "Remember to remind her not to go out at night in the future!"

Xie Jianbang nodded, "Yeah!"

However, Father Xie and Mother Xie refused to do it after hearing this...
