Chapter 27
“Mother!”
Xu Wen, who had rushed back from the production team to report the news, his liver and guts cracked as he ran a few steps and jumped up, slamming his whole body into Li Honghua
Li Honghua was hit by Xu Wen and stumbled, falling to the ground with Xu Wen
All the people were relieved
Xu Wen was particularly angry, before he even got up and lay on the ground, he grabbed Li Honghua and questioned, “Auntie Li, how did my mother do it to you and why are you still chopping people with a scythe?”
As soon as Zhu Meizhen saw that she had her son’s support, she complained with a pale face: “She said your sister was arrested and sent to jail!”
Xu Wen raised his hand to slap Aunt Li, “How dare you say anything at your age? What do you gain by making up stories about my sister behind her back? Would you be happy if I said that your daughter was taken away from you in jail?”
Li Honghua shrieked in fear, but said, “But asking is being taken away, I’m not bullshitting”
Xu Wen in the end is not good to beat women, heavy fist smashed on the side of Li Honghua to scare her Got up and patted the dust on the body, to Li Honghua grunted: “My sister that is to assist the public security investigation of the commune Wen Yiming speculation case Now my brother-in-law has picked up her back walking! The public security also said that in a few days to my sister to award a certificate! Don’t talk nonsense”
He looked coldly at the good people who were sticking their necks out and helped Zhu Meizhen walk back, “Mother, my sister’s brother-in-law will be back in a while! Why don’t you go home to cook and argue with these rotten tongues here?”
“Yes! Let’s go back now”
Xu Wen supported Zhu Meizhen, Xu Qiusi supported his grandmother, and the four of them walked back
As soon as they turned the corner of their house, Zhu Meizhen stopped and asked her son, “Are you telling the truth? Can you really come back with Xiaozheng in a while?”
“How can I lie? It’ll be a lie in a minute Just now, I answered Lu Yuanzheng’s call to the team Ask is really fine, and Lu Yuanzheng is taking Ask back with him!”
The Xu family breathed a sigh of relief
Zhu Meizhen broke down into a smile and trotted towards the house, “Those two kids should be hungry after working for half a day, right? I’ll make dinner right away”
The confused members of the community were still standing by the side of the road talking
“Ask if they’ve really been released? Is there anyone else who has been taken away by the public security authorities who can come back?”
“I’m afraid it’s true, right? It’s pointless to lie about it, but we’ll have to find out sooner or later if it’s true”
“That’s true Mrs Liu, Wen Yiming is asking about the guy he met earlier, right? What happened to him?”
As a matchmaker, Liu Xiu’e was also questioned by the public security authorities, but was not taken away so many members of the community did not know
She also said a lot of good things for Wen Yiming, and also testified that Wen Yiming met with Xu Man, saying that they were in a good relationship
Later heard that Xu Man was taken away and some of the heart, this moment heard Xu Wen words more or less relieved, to inquire about the matter of people also did not have a good tone: “Xu Wen from the brigade that, is it true or false you go to inquire about it will not know?”
“Right!” Some people can not hear the good and bad words, but also really follow the words of Liu Xiu’e to go to the production brigade to inquire
Other girls and daughters-in-law who weren’t in a hurry to go home to cook also followed to the brigade
It was already dark when Lu Yuanzheng and Xu Wen entered the house
Xu Wang, who had heard the news, also rushed over
Zhu Meizhen and Xu Wang pulled Xu Man around, carefully examined her and saw that she was unharmed before they really put their hearts at ease
When Lu Yuanzheng and Xu Man sat down at the table, the Xu family asked why
Why did the public security authorities take away Xu?
What exactly did Wen Yiming do that got her involved?
How did Lu Yuanzheng get Xu out?
The first thing you need to do is to get your hands on some of the most popular products in the world, and you’ll be able to do it in a way that’s easy for you
When the Xu family heard the story, they all scolded Wen Yiming
The grandmother was so angry that she was shaking, “Wen Yiming is so young, why is his mind so bad? Ask a big girl to really sit in jail can do?”
Xu Wen gritted his teeth and said, “See if I don’t hit the door tomorrow”
Zhu Meizhen nodded her head, “A son does not teach his father Tomorrow I will also go to his house and talk to his parents!” After saying that, she sighed, “Luckily, Ask didn’t really follow Wen Yiming, or else this life would be ruined!”
Sang Xiaoqing took Xu Man’s hand, also in tears, “Ask, sister-in-law is sorry! If it wasn’t for me complaining about you wouldn’t have been in a hurry to get married, then you wouldn’t have met Wen Yiming, this brute! It’s all my fault!”
Xu Man had come back safely, if there was an eventuality, she would be the sinner of the Xu family
Xu Man shook his head, “Sister-in-law, don’t say that You don’t know a person’s face, you don’t know their heart Wen Yiming usually pretends to be so nice, who would have thought that he has a belly full of bad water, and his heart, liver and lungs are all black!”
Xu Wen patted Sang Xiaoqing’s back, “You don’t have to be like this Although we’re all at fault, in the end, it’s still that grandson Wen Yiming who’s too much of a bastard!”
Xu Che didn’t say anything, picking up his food while secretly thinking that he would sneak out of school tomorrow, sneak behind his second brother, and go break all the glass in the Wen family’s house, so that they would bully ask sister!
Xu Qiu Shi has a little more of a big picture view, looking at Lu Yuanzheng wanting to say something
Of course, Lu Yuanzheng understood what he meant and was busy stating, “Uncle, don’t worry! I don’t care what other people say, but I’ll be fine with Ask”
Xu Qiushi was relieved and greeted them, “Eat first! Let’s eat and talk about how hungry you are, right?”
People’s words can be intimidating
Especially that Wen Yiming also had a blind date with Ask, so there must be something to be said outside
It’s good that Lu Yuanzheng is sensible and has no intention of regretting the marriage
Otherwise, how can I go out and see people in the future?
Early Monday morning, Lu Yuanzheng accompanied Xu Man to school
Since those notes and books were found in the dormitory, the school must be full of rumors about Xu Man
If she didn’t show up, she would be treated like a criminal
Lu Yuanzheng took Xu Man to see the principal first
The principal said that the public security side has called to inform the school, said Xu Man is innocent, Wen Yiming is the criminal mastermind
Lu Yuanzheng thought: Old He is still so thorough and meticulous
“Don’t worry, the school will handle the matter impartially, since student Xu Man is innocent, we won’t let student Xu Man suffer any more unfair treatment or criticism I’ve already issued a notice, posting all the original facts of the matter on the bulletin board, as for Wen Yiming, he’s already been expelled”
Lu Yuanzheng and Xu Qiang thanked him and left the principal’s office
It happened to be the end of class time, Lu Yuanzheng waited for Xu Man at the bottom of the school building, and Xu Man went upstairs to the teacher’s office to ask her homeroom teacher for a leave of absence
After this incident, she didn’t have the mood to attend classes anymore Anyway, she was going to get married to Lu Yuanzheng in a few days, so she simply took a 10-day vacation
Once the homeroom teacher heard that she was getting married, she was quick to approve the leave, but only repeatedly instructed, “Xu Man, even though getting married is a big celebration, you can’t waste your time studying”
Xu Man nodded repeatedly
She had just come out of the office when she was surrounded by her classmates
Everyone thought that Xu Man had come to withdraw from school, and they all gathered around her to chatter
Especially Shao Yue cried anxiously, “Ask, we all know you’re innocent, don’t think about it! If you quit school, you’ll be playing right into the hands of that villain Wen Yiming”
“That’s right” Li Yun agreed, “You can’t punish yourself with the mistakes of bad people”
The other students also chimed in, only Liu Rulan sat in her seat and refused to come
She was looking forward to Xu Man dropping out of school, not that she couldn’t see Xu Man as a good person, she only thought that if Xu Man dropped out, she would be the best looking girl in the class!
She was a little disappointed that Xu Man didn’t quit school and pouted
But she was also relieved that Xu Man didn’t commit a crime
Otherwise, she wouldn’t be able to get along with a criminal deskmate
Xu Man cried and laughed, “I didn’t quit school! I’m just taking a wedding vacation”
“Oh! Not dropping out of school is good not dropping out of school is good” Shao Yue nodded repeatedly
Li Yun caught the point, “Taking a wedding leave???”
Shao Yue then realized that she had the wrong focus, in her excitement, she forgot that she was in a public place, “You really want to marry Instructor Lu ah?”
Li Yun rushed to cover her mouth
It was too late, everyone heard it
Dozens of students were instantly quiet
Xu Wen’s expression remained unchanged as he smiled and nodded, “Right But the wedding isn’t on the weekend, you all still have classes I won’t invite everyone to the wedding, I’ll bring you all wedding candies later”
Although everyone was still in high school, but with their age here, they didn’t feel that Xu Man’s marriage was anything out of the ordinary, they were only slightly surprised, especially since the person Xu Man was marrying was still that devil instructor
All of them have been poking around to find out when Xu Man and Instructor Lu got married, and whether it was because of military training
Xu Man of course shook her head, “We knew each other before he came to lead the military training”
“Then did Instructor Lu come today as well?”
Xu Man hmmmed and pointed in the direction of the balcony, “He’s waiting for me downstairs”
Immediately, a good person ran to the balcony and poked his head down, calling out to Lu Yuanzheng, “Instructor Lu!”
Lu Yuanzheng, who was waiting downstairs, looked up when he heard the commotion
Those few students who shouted, habitually shrunk their necks and ducked back
Courage disappeared when they saw Lu Yuanzheng’s face
Lu Yuanzheng raised his arm and waved at them
He was no longer their instructor, so of course he wouldn’t press people with his instructor’s stance
Seeing this, one of the classmates, evil grew out of fear and shouted, “Instructor Lu, when you got married to Xu Man, you didn’t even bring us any wedding candies?”
Lu Yuanzheng was slightly stunned and lost his smile, “I came in a hurry, so I really didn’t prepare I’ll buy them for you and send them to you later!”
“Me too!”
“And me too!”
Seeing that Lu Yuanzheng wasn’t annoyed, they all started to ask for joyful candies
Lu Yuanzheng nodded his head good-naturedly, “Everyone gets a share”
The students from the other classes heard this and followed suit, “Really? Instructor Lu do we have any?”
“Yes, all of them!”
After leaving the school, Lu Yuanzheng drove Xu Wen to the department store to buy some wedding supplies
“What are you doing here if you’re not going home?” Xu Man jumped up from his bike and looked up at the large signboard in wonder
“Don’t I still owe you two dresses?” Lu Yuanzheng parked his bike and walked over, naturally holding Xu Man’s hand as he walked inside, “I should’ve known that you’d take such a long vacation before the wedding, so I waited for you to pick them out yourself”
Xu Man shook her head, “I like all the ones you picked”
“That’s good”
Xu Man picked out another red singlet on his own, and a set of everyday clothes
When the wedding will be in fall in a few days, you can’t just buy summer clothes, or buy some thicker clothes so that you can save on buying again for the changing seasons
Before leaving, Lu Yuanzheng really bought some hard candy, sent back to the school for each class to eat by themselves
“They were just kidding, you really bought them”
“It’s rare that you’re willing to disclose it to me I thought you’d hide it”
Xu Wen didn’t say anything, and there were a few moments of shame
It was true that she didn’t really want people to know before, not that she wanted to hide her marriage, but she felt a little embarrassed that she was still a student
Now that Wen Yiming had made a scene, there was no need to hide it
“Xu Wen” Lu Yuanzheng suddenly spoke
“In”
“I’m glad”
With a simple sentence, Xu Man reddened
She knew that Lu Yuanzheng was talking about the fact that she had openly admitted to marrying him
But
She was also happy
Just as much as he was
The wedding was only one day, but the fine details were quite troublesome to prepare
Xu Wen couldn’t even keep busy as a bride-to-be
In the blink of an eye, it was the day before the wedding
In Weizhuang Commune, the day before the wedding is the day for the woman to wait for the wedding guest, commonly known as the send daughter
This day, the bride’s family of relatives and friends will bring gifts to congratulate
The Xu family place is small, can not set up so many tables, so borrowed the neighbor’s home tables and chairs for the banquet
The meat, fruits and vegetables were all bought in advance, and the chef who had been in charge of the cauldron rice for the past two years was invited to be the master of the team
Members of the community who were close to the Xu family also came to help The dishes, the water, the dishes, each in their own way busy feet, but also talking and laughing very lively
Early in the morning, Xu Qiusi, Zhu Meizhen, Xu Wen and his wife, Xu Che and Xu Wang’s family put on their new clothes and wore red flowers on their chests to greet the guests
Among the group of people, the one with the most time to spare was Xu Wen
She didn’t know many of these relatives and friends There is no need for her to show her face and hide in the inner room to make up her homework
Teachers, although repeatedly said that marriage is a happy event, but assigning homework to half not soft
Xu asked to think, are to be married to write homework bride, I guess she is also ten miles eight townships a first
This wedding banquet will be held twice a day
Once at noon, to stay are slightly distant neighborhood friends
For example, Xu Wen’s friends, Sang Xiaoqing’s friends
As well as some distant relatives
Xu Wen’s family set up a total of seven banquets
In the evening, the guests were all close relatives, as well as members of the community who helped out during the day
There were nine tables full of people
There were Xu Qian’s aunts and uncles, Sang Xiaoqing’s parents and brothers
Grandpa’s cousins, Xu Man’s cousins, cousins, and so on
And so on
The specifications of the two banquets at noon and in the evening were different
The noon banquet was slightly inferior, while the evening banquet was more sumptuous
Xu Man does not know what the reason for the difference is, about the difference in the amount of gift money?
Wei Zhuang this place, poor to be poor, but many rituals
In Xu Man’s opinion, every little thing has to be a banquet
So a big event like a wedding is even more solemn
She was curious and asked her grandmother, who told her, “We are poor in Wei Zhuang, and we used to be the longtime workers of the Wei family, so we are more united than other places You see, whoever is in the military banquet, the birth of a child banquet, the child’s birthday banquet, and even whoever has a secondary school entrance exams will have a banquet One reason is to share the joy, and the other is that we are poor Although there is not much, but also can accumulate a small amount to help these people to do the work of the family temporarily tide over the difficult times
Take marriage, it sounds like a happy event But nowadays, from the time you meet your parents to the time you bring your daughter-in-law home, you can’t get it done without 600 dollars or more When your sister-in-law got married, we didn’t give her a separate room, but we gave her all the money for the furniture, didn’t we? Not to mention our family, look at the hundreds of families in our production team, how many of them paid out 600 yuan?
All of them have borrowed from other families and are waiting for the wedding gift money to pay off their debts
Everything is about you and me, people have helped us, they have something to do we naturally have to go”
It was easy to toss and turn until the end of the evening to send guests to help the members of the community also clean dishes and send them back to their homes this is the end of the matter
In her previous life, Xu Wen had heard from her married classmates that the night before the wedding, they would be so nervous that they would lose sleep
She thought it was because none of them had ever gotten married in Weizhuang
Busy from dawn until the moon was high in the sky, each member of the Xu family was so tired that they couldn’t stand up straight, and Grandma even went to bed early
“Let’s all rest early! We still have to send inquiries tomorrow”
This was one of Wei Zhuang’s characteristic customs
The bride’s family waited on guests the day before, just to free up the day of the wedding to deliver their daughter to her husband’s family and to attend their daughter’s wedding
This night even Xu asked didn’t lose any sleep and went to bed early
Tired
The family had only just entered dreamland when they were woken up by the violent knocking and shouting outside the window
“Uncle, Auntie, Xu Man!”
Xu Man was a light sleeper and woke up the earliest
Listening carefully to the commotion, he asked with less certainty, “Lu Yuanzheng?”
“It’s me” Lu Yuanzheng stopped tapping the window, “Ask, tomorrow I can t marry you over the door”
