Chapter 339 Wasted
Qin Huiyin got on the carriage and called out Song Yi, but it was Song Er who appeared.
"Where is Song Yi?" Qin Huiyin asked puzzledly.
Song Er said respectfully, "People have three urgent matters. Song Yi will be away for a while and will be back soon."
Qin Huiyin nodded and told Song Er: "You brothers have worked hard following me. Go to the account office later to collect your reward. I have already informed you in advance, so just go and collect it. In addition, I know that some escorts did not follow Brother Qingnan and the others to the capital due to family reasons. If they need work, give me a list of names."
When Qin Huiyin finished speaking, Song Yi had already returned.
He was adjusting his sleeves, which were stained with red liquid, and he couldn't wipe it off with a handkerchief. He had no choice but to roll up his sleeves to cover the stains.
"Song Yi, I have already told Song Er to do what I told you to do later." Qin Huiyin said.
"yes."
Song Yi and Song Er exchanged a look.
The carriage started moving, and Song Yi and Song Er followed behind on horseback. As for Song San and Song Si, they were only active in the city today, and they took turns on duty, so they went to rest.
As the carriage passed the alley, screams of pain were heard from the alley. The sound was muffled and not loud, and the loud sound of the carriage's wheels drowned out the screams.
Song Yi and Song Er looked towards the alley entrance and met the eyes of the tied people. Not only were they stripped naked, some had one hand removed, some had one leg removed, and the one who had just said he wanted to marry Qin Huiyin had both his hands and feet removed, his limbs hanging limply, like a soft worm without bones. Song Yi bared his teeth, and the people trembled.
With the boss away, protecting Qin Huiyin became the top priority for the four of them. These fearless bastards actually dared to attack Qin Huiyin, even if it was just a gimmick. If Qin Huiyin suffered any injustice, it would be a provocation to them.
Qin Huiyin returned to the backyard of the food city and saw Tang Luwu lying at the door listening to something as soon as she entered. She walked over and patted Tang Luwu on the shoulder, but she made a gesture to keep quiet.
"What's wrong?" Qin Huiyin leaned close to Tang Luwu's ear and asked.
Tang Luwu lowered her voice and said, "I don't know what mistake Dad made, but Mom kept scolding him. I've never seen Mom so angry. What's wrong?"
"I think I know what happened." Qin Huiyin said, "It's okay. Don't we know Uncle Tang's temper? He won't make any big mistakes, and he'll be fine soon."
Tang Luwu agreed with her, but was worried and still squatted at the door.
"Wife, I just want to see what the love between a man and a woman is like in operas. You always say I don't understand romance, don't you?" Tang Dafu complained aggrievedly while holding Li Taohua. "I heard from the brothers that operas are all about love between men and women, and I will understand the mystery after watching a few more. This is my first time going there, and you caught me red-handed. I promise I won't go there again, anyway I don't understand, and I still don't know what you mean by romance."
Tang Luwu and Qin Huiyin looked at each other, both of them with helplessness in their eyes.
The wedding date of the Li family and the Rong family has arrived. Qin Huiyin picked out the gifts in advance and took Li Taohua and his wife and Tang Luwu to the Li family for the wedding banquet. She specifically asked the Xia family that Madam Xia would be out of confinement for a few days, and He Lin would stay to take care of her and the child. The Xia family could only send one representative, Xia Ruwan, to the Li family for the banquet.
The Li family's old house was still two hours' drive from the county town. Qin Huiyin and the others set out at noon, and when they arrived at the Li family's house in the afternoon, many guests had already arrived.
Rong Mingjin got married from the Rong family's old house. It took much less time to take the sedan chair from the Rong family's old house to the Li family's old house than it did for Qin Huiyin and the others to rush over for the wedding banquet. The wedding procession played music and drums all the way, and in half an hour they welcomed the bride to the Li family.
Qin Huiyin stood at the door, watching the young man in red riding on his horse with a radiant look, bowing and smiling at the people around him, until he saw Xia Ruwan in the crowd, his smile paused. But soon, he returned to normal and thanked the guests who came to congratulate him.
Li Congxiao did have a handsome face.
After he got off the horse, he kicked the door of the sedan chair and welcomed Rong Mingjin out.
Rong Mingjin's wedding dress was inlaid with many pearls, which showed how much the Rong family valued this legitimate daughter.
People around were discussing how the Li family was marrying up to the Rong family. As a leader in the business world, the Rong family had connections and wealth, but the Li family was far behind them.
Qin Huiyin took Xia Ruwan's hand and found that her palms were sweaty. She looked back at her: "Wan'er, are you okay?"
Xia Ruwan placed her hand on her chest and shook her head gently, her eyes fixed on Li Congxiao.
"This guy is usually very sloppy, but today he is serious as usual. When he is serious, I feel a little uncomfortable." Xia Ruwan said.
Li Taohua said, "This Mr. Li seems to be a playboy but he is not vulgar. He is considered the best among men. They all say that the Li family is marrying up. Why do I feel that Miss Rong got the treasure?"
Li Congxiao and Rong Mingjin bowed to heaven and earth.
Rong Jingbo and Rong Wenxuan came to see the bride off and witnessed their cousin's important moment with their own eyes.
Rong Wenxuan stood beside Xia Ruwan and said gently, "Wan'er, I'm free these days, how about we go boating?"
"You are free, but I am not. The Xia family's business is all on my shoulders." Xia Ruwan said, "Sorry, please find some friends to play with!"
"It's okay, I can help you run the business." Rong Wenxuan felt a little disappointed.
Although their marriage was not cancelled, Xia Ruwan was obviously not as enthusiastic about him as before. He tried his best to make her happy, but she didn't appreciate it, and he had no choice.
After the wedding ceremony, the couple will be escorted to the bridal chamber.
After a while, the groom was carried out.
"Today is Brother Li's big day, we have to accompany him to drink a few more cups." A rich second-generation dandy who often hangs out with Li Congxiao said loudly, "right?"
"Yes, yes. Brother Li will be under the supervision of my sister-in-law from now on. If he wants to drink, he has to ask my sister-in-law for permission. While my sister-in-law is embarrassed to supervise him today, get him drunk quickly."
Li Congxiao begged for mercy: "Brothers, please forgive me! How about this, these two are my wife's brothers from her mother's family, let President Rong and Second Brother Rong drink with you."
Rong Jingbo was pushed out to block the drinking, but he was not unhappy. These rich second-generations didn't dare to force him to drink, but they had no problem forcing Rong Wenxuan to drink.
Qin Huiyin looked around the room, searching for Li Jingyan in the crowd.
Li Jingyan didn't bother them today. Seeing her smiling happily in the crowd, she must be busy making friends and didn't have time to pay attention to them.
"Why did you drink so much?" Qin Huiyin held the back of Xia Ruwan's hand. "Although your injury is almost healed, you can't drink like this!"
"I'll go out for some fresh air." Xia Ruwan waved her hand on her cheek. "This wine has a strong aftereffect."
