Chapter 175 Ji Xue protects Chen Shuning and confronts Wang Erxiu
Chen Shuning lowered his voice and said mysteriously, "Sister-in-law, there are too many people here. Let's go home and talk."
Ji Xue felt guilty and looked around. Seeing that no one was paying attention to them, she nodded.
Everyone was working hard, and laughter could be heard from time to time, which could be heard from far away.
Han Mei was wearing a new dress and had a red rope tied in her hair. She followed Liu Gui and walked over shyly.
Seeing so many people in the cafeteria, Liu Gui suddenly stopped, turned around and asked, "Meizi, is it appropriate for us to go in empty-handed? Or... should I go to town to buy some wedding candy?"
"Why waste that money?" Han Mei pouted and said dissatisfiedly, "We are not well off, so we should save a little."
She stood on tiptoe and looked into the cafeteria, saying dissatisfiedly, "Look, the whole village is here. If everyone gets a piece of candy, how much will it cost?"
"That's right—" Liu Gui agreed, "Besides, we can eat pork today, so no one should be critical if we don't buy candy..."
Xu Qingshan and Chen Jiawang were chatting at the foot of the wall when they looked up and saw Liu Gui standing nearby. He smiled and said, "Hey, is the groom coming?"
Seeing Liu Gui with empty hands, and then looking at Han Mei behind him who also had empty hands, the smile on Xu Qingshan's face faded a little.
Xu Qingshan said loudly: "Hurry in~ It's almost time for dinner."
It was the first time that Xu Qingshan had seen such a stingy couple. They had decided to get married today, but they hadn't prepared anything and were reluctant to even give out a piece of wedding candy.
Originally, he was planning to have a big fight to liven things up, but now Xu Qingshan has given up on that idea...
Liu Gui smiled and said in a fake voice, "Hey, you guys came early? Han Mei and I wanted to come earlier, but we got delayed by cleaning the house..."
Chen Jiawang nodded as a greeting, then turned and ran over to Guo Junshan. He wasn't familiar with the people at the educated youth center, and didn't want to get involved in their affairs.
Guo Junshan raised his eyebrows and asked in a low voice, "Jiawang, is this the couple you mentioned getting married today?"
Chen Jiawang nodded without saying anything.
Guo Junshan asked softly, "Just wearing new clothes, does that count as getting married?"
"Probably." Chen Jiawang replied vaguely, "I don't know either. Maybe they have other plans."
Guo Junshan flipped through the dishes in the pot and thought to himself: This is too shabby. When Shu Ning and I get married, we can't have the wedding so hastily.
When people in Beijing get married, they all pick up the bride by bicycle. I couldn't let Shu Ning down. Others would ride bicycles, but I let her take a car...
Guo Junshan was mentally planning his wedding and glanced at Han Mei. He thought to himself: This bride's dress is no different from what she wears every day...
Shuning can't be so shabby. I'll have to take her to make a few new sets of clothes, and she can wear whichever one she likes...
Chen Jiawang squatted on the ground and looked up at Guo Junshan. He saw his expression changing again and again. He didn't know what good things he was thinking about. His mouth was so grinning that he could swallow a sheep.
Chen Jiawang couldn't help but ask: "Junshan, what are you thinking about? You look so happy..."
"Ah?" Guo Junshan came to his senses and saw Chen Jiawang staring at him. He felt uneasy. "I'm not thinking about anything. I'm going to eat meat soon. I'm happy~"
Chen Jiawang's face was full of disgust. If he believed Guo Junshan's words, he would be a big fool. With Guo Junshan's conditions, could he not eat meat?
Seeing Chen Jiawang's suspicious look, Guo Junshan cleared his throat and said, "Jiawang, the meat is cooked. Go call someone to serve it on a plate."
Chen Jiawang didn't leave either. He turned around and shouted to Xu Qingshan, "Qingshan, go get someone to serve the meat. It's cooked."
Guo Junshan wiped his hands on his apron and squatted down. He took the opportunity of turning off the engine to avoid Chen Jiawang's scrutiny.
Chen Jiawang would not let him go so easily, and asked, "Junshan, what are your plans for getting married in the future?"
Guo Junshan said excitedly: "I am a gay man, so whether or not to have a wedding doesn't have much impact on me. However, it's different for lesbians!"
To please my future wife, I have to have a grand wedding! All her relatives and friends will be over, and we'll all sit together and have a good meal.
When getting married, there must be three turns and one ring, and wedding candy and red envelopes are definitely necessary... As for the rest, it depends on what she requires, and I will do my best to meet it."
"You're thinking long-term..." Chen Jiawang sighed, "Can you come up with an idea? Will your family object?"
Guo Junshan said confidently: "I can make my own decisions. I won't ask my family for money to get married. Besides, my parents are very open-minded and they respect me."
He had been working for a few years and didn't have any big expenses, so he had saved a lot of money. He didn't need help from his family to get married, so of course he could make his own plans.
Chen Jiawang nodded, feeling even more satisfied with Guo Junshan.
Although everyone had already eaten meat at Chen Shuning's house, the whole village, young and old, ate the same pig together, and no one could get a piece of the pie into their mouths, so there were only a few bites left.
As soon as the meat was served on the table, it was immediately snatched up.
Ji Xue was stunned by how quickly they picked up their chopsticks. By the time she realized what was happening, there was very little meat left on the table.
Chen Shuning was only concerned with grabbing the meat and hadn't eaten it at all. When he saw that Ji Xue's bowl was empty, he quickly picked out most of the meat from his own bowl and piled it into Ji Xue's bowl.
"Sister-in-law, you've never seen us rural people fighting over meat, right? We don't get meat very often throughout the year, so you're a little anxious..."
Come, I'll give you some meat, and this pig's blood, it's fragrant and tastes just as good as meat."
Ji Xue looked down at the meat in the bowl, feeling a little sad. Shu Ning knew she didn't like fatty meat, so he put lean meat in her bowl.
"Shuning, let's switch. Lean meat tastes better. Don't give it all to me..."
Guo Junshan stood at the entrance of the cafeteria, looked up and quickly locked onto Chen Shuning's position: "Chen Shuning——"
Chen Shuning turned around and saw that it was Guo Junshan calling her. Thinking that something important happened, she stopped talking to Ji Xue and ran out with the bowl in her hand.
Wang Erxiu curled her lips and grumbled in dissatisfaction: "I'm really surprised. What kind of luck does a country girl like Chen Shuning have?
Look at how intimately Officer Guo called her. I don't believe he's not interested in her. Could it be possible that she could turn into a phoenix?
Ji Xue glanced at Wang Erxiu and said sternly, "My sister is already a phoenix. Does she really need to fly up to a tree and become a phoenix? Who are you trying to embarrass?"
Besides, Officer Guo is the grandson of my grandfather's comrade-in-arms. He's spending the New Year here and has no relatives. He just knows our family. What's wrong with asking Shuning to come over and help?"
Wang Erxiu stared at him, and said with a fierce face: "Jiaxing's wife, how can you talk like that?"
"How can you talk like that?" Ji Xue put the bowl on the table and said, "You have nothing better to do than to make up stories! Even eating can't stop you from talking..."
