Chapter 143



Gu Beihuai: "Sister-in-law, don't listen to the boss. I don't want it. I don't want to drink wild vegetable porridge. Whenever I go back to the educated youth site and smell that smell, my stomach gets uncomfortable."

Xia Yunxuan: "Okay, hurry up and help move the things. Your boss is teasing you on purpose, can't you see? You two should just get together. You always start fighting as soon as you see each other."

"Who is he a couple with?"

The two of them said this in unison, and then glanced at each other with looks of disdain.

"Hahaha."

"Look at how well you two work together, how dare you say you're not a couple."

While the two of them were moving things, Xia Yunxuan lit a fire and cooked lunch. When they finished moving the things, her cold noodles were ready. Gu Beihuai picked up a big bowl and ate with relish.

Xiao Yichen said, "Second brother, after dinner, come with me to borrow a chair or bench. You also need to help your sister-in-law move."

Gu Beihuai: "Okay, Boss, I'll go with you after dinner, just keep me company, I'm serious about the job."

After dinner, Xiao Yichen took off the clothes he was wearing and would wear them at his wedding tomorrow. He was reluctant to wear such nice clothes when doing rough work. These were given to him by Xuanxuan, so he must take good care of them.

When Xiao Yichen returned to the educated youth site, some of the educated youth looked at him less friendly after seeing him come back, especially the female ones.

Why is it that such a good man is obviously someone else's? There are so many people in their educated youth camp, but they are not as good as a stinky country girl.

How embarrassing it was for them. That stinky country girl was now without a father or a mother. What good was there in being an orphan? I really didn't know what this educated youth Xiao was thinking.

Xiao Yichen didn't even look at them. He went back to his bed, took off his clothes, folded them, put on his old clothes, and left without looking back.

Ji Yanfang originally wanted to make trouble, but after hearing people say that Xiao Zhiqing's family had a powerful background, she held her mouth shut and said nothing.

Xiao Yichen and Gu Beihuai came to their neighbor's house and said they wanted to borrow some tables and chairs as they were going to hold a banquet tomorrow. The neighbor was very enthusiastic and not only lent them the tables and chairs, but also took the initiative to help move them.

She also wished him and Xia Yunxuan a happy marriage and a quick marriage, and said that they were country people who didn't know how to speak, so he shouldn't mind it.

If there is anything they need help with in the future, just let them know. Xiao Yichen nodded to express his gratitude and asked them to come to the banquet early tomorrow.

Gu Beihuai and Xiao Yichen borrowed all the chairs and benches before helping Xia Yunxuan move. Fortunately, the place was not too far away, so it took the three of them several trips to move everything.

Xia Yunxuan quickly took out the tea and poured a cup for each person. They all drank it in one gulp and forgot to drink the water because they were so busy.

Just when they had taken a short break, the furniture deliveryman came again. The furniture arrived at a perfect time. Xia Yunxuan and the others started working again and put the furniture in place.

Xia Yunxuan felt particularly warm when she saw the dressing table, wardrobe, and washstand that Xiao Yichen had prepared for her. She had never expected that he had considered everything so thoroughly.

Xiao Yichen: "Xuanxuan, take a look at these furniture. If there is anything missing, we can buy it after we get married."

Xia Yunxuan: "Yichen, it's all right, you prepared everything very carefully."

"Any more would be too conspicuous and too noticeable. Although we are upright, there are always some people who like to cause trouble."

Xiao Yichen: "Well, I always listen to my wife. My grandmother said that a good husband is one who listens to his wife, and only by listening to his wife can you make a fortune."

Xia Yunxuan: "Yichen, stop talking nonsense, hurry up and light the fire so I can make dinner, otherwise you will go hungry tonight and I won't cook."

"Anyway, you guys are responsible for the firewood and washing dishes, and I'll cook. We divide the work and cooperate. Humph, if you do nothing after marriage and act like a big boss, I'll kick you back to the educated youth camp."

Xiao Yichen: "Wife, please don't kick me or your feet will hurt. I'll go right away. You can teach me how to cook later. When I learn how to cook, I'll cook for you. Then you won't have to work so hard."

Xia Yunxuan: "That's about right. You're doing pretty well. Just watch me cook. I'll wait for the food to be ready. Men who can do housework are the most handsome."

When Xiao Yichen heard Xia Yunxuan praising his handsomeness, his smile was as brilliant as fireworks. Well, it seems that he needs to continue to maintain this handsome face and let his wife look at him more.

Seeing the two being so affectionate in the kitchen, Gu Beihuai knew better than to disturb them. Since they were not fetching water, he chopped the firewood and arranged it neatly.

This way, my sister-in-law can cook faster and not so hard. After chopping wood, if she sees any sawdust, she will sweep it away cleanly. After all, the eldest brother is going to hold a banquet tomorrow, and it would be uncomfortable to look at it if it is too dirty.

After Gu Beihuai finished cleaning, he took out the prepared red paper scissors and cut out a lot of wedding characters, and pasted them everywhere inside and outside. It looked particularly festive and felt like a wedding.

This surprised Xia Yunxuan, she didn't expect that a boy could actually do handicrafts, and his haircuts were very beautiful. It was a pity that in this era, weddings were not allowed to be extravagant, otherwise it would look better if she took out balloons to tidy up the room.

However, she also added quilts and daily necessities according to local customs. These were originally prepared by her parents' family. Although she doesn't have a mother now, she prepared them herself.

She would never let those who wanted to laugh at her have their wish come true. Even if she could live well on her own, she could afford her dowry. She always relied on herself.

Xia Yunxuan prepared dinner, and after everyone finished eating, Xiao Yichen said, "Xuanxuan, I will give you 8,888 yuan as a betrothal gift, and I will also give you 50,000 yuan in the passbook. I have a lot of good things at home. If you can go back, I will give them all to you for safekeeping."

"I've also bought you a watch and a radio. As for the sewing machine, I'll follow your advice. If you say buy it, then buy it. I have the tickets here anyway."

It’s not that he didn’t want to buy a sewing machine for his wife, but he had never seen his wife buy cloth to make her own clothes, and he didn’t know whether she could do it.

Xia Yunxuan: "Yichen, isn't your gift too much? I know it would be too little if it were in Beijing, but now we are in the countryside, wouldn't it be too conspicuous?"

Xiao Yichen: "Xuanxuan, of course I know this, but marriage is a lifelong event, I don't want to be so hasty and make you regret it later, just ignore it anyway, my money can withstand the investigation."

"But the money in Xuanxuan's passbook was secretly left to me by my grandfather. I guess you can't let it slip now that nothing has happened to you, or else my sister-in-law will be so angry that everyone in the family will be in turmoil."

"You'll know what kind of person she is once you get to know her. She's blind, selfish, and can't tell right from wrong."
