The atmosphere in the educated youth dormitory was depressing.
Instead, there was the sound of gongs and drums outside the house, making it quite lively.
The crackling sound of firecrackers rang out, accompanied by cheers from the villagers.
All kinds of sounds came through the window and into the house.
Zhen Jia and Liu Yalan were so curious that they wanted to run out and watch.
But Lin Wanyu's face was sour that they couldn't afford to provoke her.
They could only return to their beds and rest.
Everyone quieted down, and the atmosphere became even more depressing and unbearable.
Seeing Lin Wanyu was about to cover her face with the pillow again, she sobbed.
Yu Fan suddenly had an idea and took the initiative to stand up and encourage her.
"Although it's Jiang Sui who's getting married today, Wanyu, you can't lose."
"You are the most beautiful among all of us female educated youth. How can you be outdone by a country girl?"
Zhen Jia and Liu Yalan also wanted to liven up the atmosphere, so they followed suit.
"Yes, Wanyu, you have so many beautiful clothes. You must dress up beautifully and let the villagers see them."
Although Lin Wanyu didn't say anything, she at least stopped crying.
She stayed in bed for a while, then got up silently and took out all the clothes she had brought from the city.
As the only daughter of the Lin family, she had never suffered any injustice in terms of food, clothing, housing and transportation.
Mother Lin dotes on her so much that she always buys her clothes in piles. She can fill up her suitcase with just a few pieces.
As educated youth who went to the countryside, the others' families did not have as good conditions as hers, and they could not help but look at her with envy.
There were so many beautiful dresses, Lin Wanyu reached out without blinking and directly pulled out the dress at the bottom of the box.
There was no hesitation in his action, and it was obvious that he had thought it through long ago.
"I think this dress is the most beautiful and suits me best."
Everyone was speechless as they watched Lin Wanyu holding up the bright red dress and gesturing around her body.
Didn’t she say a while ago that she thought red was tacky and didn’t suit her temperament?
Even though you dislike it so much, you still wear it.
Moreover, it was at someone else's wedding.
People of this era generally did not have good conditions. The poorer ones could not even afford to buy red cloth, and they were lucky enough to have a new piece of clothing to wear.
Lin Wanyu wore such a fashionable dress and chose the most eye-catching bright red color.
It's obvious that she's trying to steal the limelight from the bride, Jiang Sui!
Several people knew that it was inappropriate, but Lin Wanyu refused to listen and insisted on wearing it.
Yu Fan, Zhen Jia, and Liu Yalan didn't want to offend her. Thinking that they were not the ones being wronged anyway, they simply followed Lin Wanyu's wishes and gave her bad advice.
"We also think this dress is beautiful. Wanyu, you have fair skin, so you will look beautiful in red."
"Yes, if Wanyu puts on some more makeup, the villagers might not be able to figure out who the real bride is."
Listening to Yu Fan and the others saying all kinds of flattering words, Lin Wanyu finally felt a little relieved.
Looking at her own slim and beautiful figure in the mirror, she naturally reached out and took the cosmetics that others could not afford and used them on her face.
At the same time, she secretly thought in her heart that Yu Fan and the others were right.
Even if it is Jiang Sui who is married to Song Sichen now.
But she was just a little country girl, how could she be as precious as those who came from the city?
Who knows, when you get married, you may not even be able to afford a beautiful new dress.
Not to mention that Song Sichen didn't like her in the first place, and even this wedding was forced by her.
Lin Wanyu was determined to see with her own eyes Jiang Sui making a fool of himself in front of all the villagers and leaving in embarrassment.

On the other side, Jiang Anping and Wang Chunhong also slept until dawn.
Before I even opened my eyes, I heard a noisy noise outside.
"Why are you making so much noise so early in the morning? Are you going to let me sleep?"
Jiang Anping turned around irritably, cursing as he pulled the quilt over his head, trying to block out the sound.
Finally, it was Wang Chunhong who reminded him that today was the day Jiang Sui was going to hold her wedding ceremony.
But they had both made up their minds and neither of them was going to watch the ceremony.
Even if they are nominally biological children, they were forced by the villagers to pay such a large dowry, and they are very resentful.
It’s good enough that he didn’t rush to cause trouble for Jiang Sui, but he still wanted them to attend the wedding. It’s just a dream!
Jiang Anping and Wang Chunhong quickly reached an agreement and decided to continue sleeping.
But before they could close their eyes, they realized something was wrong and suddenly sat up from the bed.
"Wasn't Jiang Sui's wedding held in the village? Why did the sound sound so close to me?"
The couple looked at each other in surprise and showed expressions of horror.
"Oh no! Are those bandits from the village coming to rob us again?"
When Jiang Anping and Wang Chunhong finally reacted, they hurriedly put on their clothes and went out of the yard. As expected, they saw a huge crowd of people at the gate of the yard, and they were squeezed so tightly that no one could get in.
All the neighbors, including Aunt Fan, Old Lady Yuan, and Sister Fang, were almost angered to the point of having their noses twisted.
The people in the second and third rooms were not in a much better situation. They were already very angry about being forced to pay the dowry, and they were waiting for Jiang Sui to return to her parents' home last night so that they could give her a good beating to vent their anger.
But I didn't expect that this little girl was so cunning that she actually ran to the village chief's house.
They missed the chance to take revenge and were already very upset.
It's early in the morning and I have to deal with these nosy gossips.
On such a happy day, everyone in the Jiang family had a face longer than a donkey's, which looked so unlucky.
But no one cares whether they are happy or not.
Marriage is a major event that happens once in a lifetime, but none of Jiang Sui's family members are reliable, and there is not even anyone to arrange things for her.
Considering that they have been neighbors for so many years, everyone naturally has to respect her status as elders and make plans for her future.
“Ahem.”
As the oldest person in the village, Mrs. Yuan felt obliged to speak out.
"The most important event in our village this month is Sui Sui's wedding. We discussed it last night and all of us felt that what your family gave us was not enough."
Jiang Anping and Wang Chunhong were both so confused that they didn't know where to start complaining.
There have never been any big weddings in the village in the past. Why is Jiang Sui's wedding being treated so seriously?
They were thinking that they were going to hold a banquet today, and the villagers would at most come to get some dishes or something, so they went to prepare the food.
Vegetables are the least valuable in the village. Jiang Anping and Wang Chunhong both wanted to get rid of the people as soon as possible, so they said:
"The food is all in the kitchen, just go get whatever you want."
Aunt He and Sister Lu looked at each other and said happily, "I've been waiting for you to say this."
After saying this, the villagers didn’t care about Jiang Anping and Wang Chunhong’s reactions.
He went straight into their house and took away the only sewing machine in the Jiang family.
