After breakfast, Guihua was dragged into the house by Suzhen to gossip. "Guihua, do you know? Yesterday, when I heard them say that Chen Dong was going to marry Wang Cuihua, I couldn't believe it. How could Wang Long be willing to marry his daughter to a poor person? This is not like him at all!"
Fang Guihua also agreed with her words: "If you don't believe it, I don't dare to believe it either. I feel that their marriage can't be true, but he just ran over to tell us, so it must be true!"
"So you think so too. By the way, I remember Xiaolan said that the two of them had been hooking up for a long time. Xiaolan, tell us how you knew that." Wang Suzhen called Tian Xiaolan over, wanting to hear what she was talking about the two people.
Tian Xiaolan came over. Since there was an audience, she didn't mind sharing gossip with everyone. "Auntie, you asked the right person. I just happened to see them dating in the bamboo forest by the river. I even saw their lips touching. Auntie, do you know what they were doing?"
"This is unbelievable! How shameless! They're being affectionate in broad daylight. They're still an unmarried young girl, yet they're so casual. I'm afraid she's pregnant! Otherwise, how could they get married so soon?"
Tian Xiaolan did not agree with Aunt Suzhen's guess. In her opinion, it was obvious that Wang Cuihua was in the dominant position in this relationship. It was impossible for Chen Dong to force her to have a relationship with him. The only possibility was that Wang Cuihua agreed herself. But judging from how anxious she saw Chen Dong running to the town to buy wedding supplies yesterday, it did not seem like something that had been discussed in advance, but rather a last-minute decision.
"Aunt, you don't know, but guess who I met when I went to town yesterday." Tian Xiaolan deliberately didn't say anything to whet her appetite.
"Which one? Don't tell me yet!" Wang Suzhen looked at Fang Guihua next to Tian Xiaolan, blinking at her, asking her for a clue. What did she mean by shaking her head at her? "It's definitely not your brother. Could it be..."
Liu Dongmei was washing dishes in the kitchen, listening to them talk about Longmenzhen, and she had an answer in her heart.
Tian Xiaolan tilted her head and asked in confusion, "Yes, it's him, Chen Dong! I saw him shopping for wedding things just yesterday. Do people go shopping so late for their weddings?"
How is that possible? Most people prepare for their wedding in advance, but his family announced yesterday that they are getting married today. It's as if a ghost is chasing them and no one will marry them if they are late. Wang Suzhen found it funny. She wanted to share this with her good sisters as soon as possible so that they could discuss it together.
As soon as she looked up, she met Tian Xiaolan's puzzled gaze. It was normal for her not to understand these things since she wasn't married yet, so she still had to explain to her: "Generally speaking, to get married, you need the consent of both parents, negotiate the dowry and betrothal gifts, then choose a good day, notify relatives and friends, and then get married. It's not like they do it."
When Tian Xiaolan heard the steps, she became even more suspicious. They were in such a hurry to get married, could there be some conspiracy waiting for her? She was either overthinking it or she felt something was wrong.
Wang Suzhen mentioned auspicious days and went to look at the calendar hanging on the wall of her house. She wanted to see what kind of auspicious day today was. She didn't know until she looked at it that it said it was not auspicious to get married or go out. How did Wang Long choose this day? She now suspected more and more that they were hiding something from everyone.
I told Guihua what I had just seen in the calendar, and Guihua took it and confirmed it again.
