Suddenly, someone shouted in the courtyard, "Head Of Yun, is Head Of Yun here?"
Yun Jingting looked out of the window and saw five or six people coming in. The person in the lead had white hair and looked about 50 years old. He was wearing a snow-white coat, black trousers, and cotton shoes. Although his clothes were very simple, he looked confident and arrogant. He was none other than the village chief of Sanfang Village, Bai Changxi.
The moment Village Chief Bai entered the courtyard, Xu Dongsheng quickly went up to him. "Hey, Bai Abacus, why are you here?"
"Oh, isn't it because the Head Of Yun is getting married? I have to bring a big gift." He turned around and waved to the few young men behind him. "Put the things by the wall."
Yun Laohu saw him from the house and quickly came out to welcome him. "Village Chief Bai, how are you?"
To be honest …
Among the villages near his base, he had the best relationship with Bai Changxi. In the past, when the army helped with the spring plowing, he mostly stayed in Sanfang Village because he got along with Bai Changxi the best.
At this moment, when he saw Bai Abacus coming to the wedding, he was naturally happy. But when he looked at the gift, his face fell. "Look, you don't treat me as a friend, right? Why did you bring gifts to the wedding?"
Bai Changxi laughed. "I don't have anything good. I just got half a sheep, a few jars of old wine, and two old hens. Head Of Yun, don't refuse. If you don't accept my gifts, I'll leave with my people and things. We won't know each other in the future …"
Don't refuse?
Yun Jingting really couldn't do it. After all, he was a cadre in the army and had discipline. "Your gift is too big. I really can't accept it. It's normal to give a basin and a thermos to attend a wedding. It's not easy for anyone to live with half a sheep now. Take it back and share it with the poor in the village …"
Bai Changxi took half a step forward and said seriously, "Head Of Yun, are you trying to slap me in the face? You're forcing me to leave immediately. There are five or six of us here for the wedding. We're going to eat here for three days. Can't we bring some wine and meat ourselves?"
Yun Laohu thought that it was a wedding now. It was not good to be too serious about these things. Even if this half a sheep was overboard, it was fine to return it after the wedding.
He was not a dawdling person. He nodded and smiled. "Okay, I won't be stubborn with you. I'm still waiting for you to preside over my wedding today."
Bai Changxi coughed, "Then you've found the right person. It's not that I'm bragging, but within a radius of ten miles, I'm the village chief of the top Elementary Scholar. With my eloquence, as long as I claim to be second, no one would dare to claim to be first."
Xu Dongsheng covered his mouth and laughed. "You're going to blow yourself up to the heavens. I reckon that half a sheep was blown to death by you."
The few of them laughed together.
Bai Changxi turned his head and called a young man over. "Nan Ye, you're fast and have good judgment. Do more work later to liven up the atmosphere. I didn't bring you here to eat for free!"
Nan Ye agreed readily. "Got it!"
He reached out to Yun Laohu generously. "Head Of Yun, nice to meet you. This is what I think. Since it's a wedding, it has to be lively and festive. I'll help to make a scene later. You have to cooperate fully!"
This kid was quite generous with his words. He was not afraid of anyone.
Yun Jingting could not help but take a few more glances at him. He was about 16 or 17 years old. He was tall and handsome. One look and she could tell that he was quick-witted. There was a hint of arrogance in his actions. He looked like someone who was not afraid of trouble.
Bai Changxi leaned toward Xu Dongsheng and lowered his voice. "How's Doctor Xiao? After the wedding, I'll go and see him."
Xu Dongsheng hesitated for a moment. "Don't. There are too many people today. Let's talk about it another day!"
"That's fine too!"
Yun Jingting overheard the conversation. "Oh right, Village Chief Bai, I forgot to ask. Did the people from the task force come back to the village to make trouble?"
"What trouble? They made trouble with me and I made him have diarrhea!"
Bai Changxi sighed. "I don't know what's wrong with people these days. They only know how to fight among themselves. Most of them have returned to the city. Only one person stayed in the village. I have to take good care of him all day. I've decided that from tomorrow onwards, I'll put some croton in his food. If he really has diarrhea, I'll quickly send him back to the city. Then, Doctor Xiao can go home!"
Ah!
That meant that Xiao Qingshan could not go back for the time being!
Yun Jingting did not mind. "It's okay. Doctor Xiao can stay here for now. He's not in a hurry to go back!"
Bai Changxi smiled with narrowed eyes. "Alright then. Sorry to trouble you and Xiao Mi!"
“”
Seeing that it was almost time for the wedding, the guests gradually started to arrive.
Nan Ye quickly walked to Lu Yue's side and familiarly helped to receive them.
Yun Jingting glanced out of the corner of his eye and saw someone squatting outside the main door. His face was facing the street, and only his back was visible. Even so, he was a soldier and had sharp eyes. With one glance, he could tell that it was Mi Jianguo.
After thinking for a while, he still walked over. After all, the other party was his father-in-law!
Father-in-law?
He did not address him that way!
He still remembered the past and did not quite accept this person. "Okay, you're here. Go in and have a drink!"
Mi Jianguo turned his head and saw Yun Jingting's tall figure standing behind him. He hurriedly stood up, his hands hanging by his side and his waist slightly bowed. "Hello, Head Of Yun!"
No wonder Yu Hongyan always scolded him as a "slave." Looking at him like this, it was really hard to like him.
Mi Jianguo asked softly, "Can I go in?"
“”
"How's Eldest Miss today?"
Yun Jingting pondered for a moment. "What do you mean? Are you going in or not?"
Mi Jianguo hesitated and looked at the ground. He did not dare to look at Yun Laohu. Occasionally, when a villager passed by, he turned his face to the side and did not greet them. He did not know what was so shameful about it!
Yun Jingting was a little impatient. He frowned and put one hand in his trouser pocket. He stood quietly and did not speak anymore.
Mi Jianguo took a deep breath and seemed to have made up his mind. "Okay, then I won't go in. Give this to Miss!"
He casually stuffed a red paper bag into Yun Jingting's hands. From the looks of it, it was a monetary gift.
Yun Jingting pushed it back. "If you want to give it to them, then hand it to them personally. I can't accept it. We don't have such a relationship. Let's not talk about it anymore. I still have guests in my courtyard, so you can decide for yourself. If you want to go in, I welcome you. If you don't want to, I won't force you!"
He was a person who clearly distinguished between love and hate. His feelings were definitely not fake.
He really did not like this "father-in-law" in his heart. His daughter was getting married, but as a father, Mi Jianguo did not do anything. He did not even dare to enter the house. It was obvious that he was in the wrong.
Yun Laohu forced a smile. "Then I'll leave first!"
She slowly walked down the steps, took out the wedding candy from the Jeep, and went straight back to the courtyard.
Mi Jianguo was left hanging there. He stretched his neck to look at the wedding banquet. Lu Yue happened to see him. "Hey, Uncle Mi, you're here for the wedding banquet too? Please come in!"
"Ah, no, I'm not here for the wedding banquet. I still have something to do at home. I'll leave after taking a look!" Mi Jianguo thought for a while and stuffed the monetary gift into Lu Yue's hands. "Help me pass this to Xiang 'er!"
He turned and left.
Lu Yue opened the paper bag and took a look. There were only two yuan inside.
She could not help but twitch her mouth. No wonder Mi Jianguo was not liked by others. He only gave his daughter two yuan for her wedding. It was not even as much as the average person. Was he still behaving like a father?
She did not say much. She wrapped the gift back and went to entertain the other guests.
At five o 'clock …
The courtyard slowly became lively. There were more and more guests, and the tables and chairs of the wedding banquet were about to be filled.
Xu Dongsheng clapped his hands twice in the sunset. "Everyone, quiet down! Quiet down!"
The surroundings slowly quieted down.
Village Chief Xu stood at the end of the long corridor with a smile on his face. "It's time. According to our village's rules, the wedding is about to begin. Let's invite the groom to enter."
Enter?
This was just a formality!
In reality, Yun Jingting had been busy in the courtyard. Although the villagers were a little afraid of him and did not dare to approach him to chat, they could see that he was wearing the groom's little red flower on his chest. He had a joyous look on his face, and there was a blissful smile in his eyes. He was much more approachable, and there were many people congratulating him.
Yun Jingting strode over to Xu Dongsheng and stood there with his shoulders straight and his back ramrod straight. He exuded the majesty of a soldier.
He saluted the guests. "Hello, everyone. Thank you for attending my wedding with Mi Xaing 'er!"
Nan Ye was in charge of adjusting the atmosphere. He immediately took the lead and clapped. "Congratulations to the newlyweds for a hundred years of bliss!"
Of course, the villagers echoed:
"Yes, I wish you a child soon!"
"Flying wing to wing, eyebrows to eyebrows!"
"Fortune as vast as the East Sea, longevity as long as the South Mountain!"
"Oh my, I'm wrong. Third Brother, that's a birthday greeting!"
"Hahaha!"
The wedding became lively all of a sudden.
Yun Jingting raised his hand and gestured for silence. "Thank you, everyone, for your blessings. I have a few words to say!"
His voice was calm and dignified.
Everyone immediately fell silent. Although there were many guests in the courtyard, it was almost silent.
Tang Xiling looked at the wedding banquet through the window. Her face was almost pressed against the glass. Although she couldn't go out now, she was very happy. She stared at Yun Jingting with gratification. It was like an old mother-in-law looking at her son-in-law. No matter how she looked at it, everything was fine.
Cloud Tiger said in a clear voice, "I've been here for a few years, so everyone should know what kind of person I am. I'm a straightforward person, and I don't know how to beat around the bush. Good is good, bad is bad, there's no middle ground. From now on, Mi Xiang 'er is my wife, and this house is my home. If your friends come, I have meat and wine, but if my enemies come, I have a club. That's all I have to say, there's nothing more to say."
Ah!
This …
Wasn't this too "simple and crude"?
Although he didn't say it explicitly, in short, he said, "Who dares to bully my wife?"
Everyone didn't know how to respond. They looked at each other, and the scene was a little awkward for a moment.
Xu Dongsheng coughed lightly and quickly came out to help. "Head Of Yun's speech is over. Next, let's invite Mother to enter!"
The bride entered!
After saying this, Mi Xaing 'er walked out of the room openly. Yun Jingqi followed behind her. When the two women stood in the courtyard, everyone's gaze was involuntarily fixed on them.
Beautiful!
So beautiful!
Mi Xaing 'er wore a red dress. With the golden sunset as the background, she looked like the most beautiful scenery in summer …
She walked slowly. When the breeze blew, the hem of her long dress stuck to her slender calves. The red and white contrasted, making her skin look as smooth and tender as milk. Two large braids rested on her ample chest. The ends of the braids trembled as she moved. She was so beautiful that people couldn't take their eyes off her.
Yun Jingqi, who was behind her, walked calmly. She was tall and slender, and her exquisite facial features were exactly the same as Yun Laohu's. However, she didn't lack the gentleness and charm of a woman. Her actions carried the charm of a mature woman. She was also exceptionally outstanding.
Yun Laohu's gaze lingered on his "wife".
For a moment …
It was as if his surroundings were empty. There was only the blue sky, white clouds, the breeze, the fragrance of flowers, and the woman in front of him …
When Mi Xaing 'er slowly walked in front of him, it was as if he had just woken up from a dream. He gently reached out his large hand.
Mi Xaing 'er's head drooped into the most beautiful angle. She placed her small hand in his large palm. She raised her eyebrows and smiled at him. That smile was imprinted in Yun Laohu's mind. It was like the most intense watercolor that wouldn't fade for the rest of his life.
The two of them stood side by side.
The setting sun cast a pair of silhouettes on the ground. The man was tall, and the woman was delicate.
The courtyard was silent. Everyone held their breaths as they stared at this pair of people …
So compatible!
A talented man and a beautiful woman!
So compatible!
Xu Dongsheng raised his voice. "Next, let's invite the wedding officiator, Bai Changxi, to read out the marriage certificate for everyone!"
Bai Abacus took the two marriage certificates. "Ahem, I hereby announce that Yun Jingting, male, 20 years old, and Mi Xaing 'er, female, 18 years old, are married according to the laws of the People's Republic of China!"
Yun Jingting clenched his large hand and held Mi Xaing 'er's small hand tightly. It was as if he was afraid that she would disappear into thin air from his side.
Xu Dongsheng's voice was cheerful. "Next, the newlyweds shall enter the bridal chamber!"
----- Digression —
Oh my god, it seemed like they were one step closer to the bridal chamber!
