Joe's Farming

April 19th is a good day to get married.

Qiao Yu is going to help Wen Ge'er's house today, while Gu Feng is going to help Shi Daniang's house. The children will be taken by their grandfather to the groom's house for a banquet around noon.

When Qiao Yu arrived, Wen Ge'er's mother was combing Wen Ge'er's hair. There were also a few boys from the village in the room. They were all acquainted with Wen Ge'er when he was a child, but they gradually drifted apart as he grew up.

Among them was a girl named Xiaobai, who was tall, thin, fair-skinned, and dressed rather tightly. She had just married last year. When she saw Qiao Yu coming, she made room for him. They were mainly here today as Wen Ge'er's relatives to send off the bride. Normally, those who sent off the bride were unmarried sisters. But because Wen Ge'er was considered relatively old in the village, almost all the brothers he knew were married.

Fortunately, as long as the husband's family doesn't mind, no one will say anything bad about my brother's family. It is shameful for my brother to have no one to send him off. The more she understands the customs of the village, the more she realizes that her marriage to Gu Feng was a disgrace to Gu Feng in the eyes of outsiders.

At this time, Wen Ge'er's mother had done a hair-tie for Wen Ge'er, and Wen Ge'er called Qiao Yu over.

"This is the hairpin Wang Jie gave me. Brother Qiao, please put it on me." Brother Wen said.

Brother Wen put on a little powder today, and his eyebrows were curved like willow leaves. His mother also applied ointment on his lips, making his lips look moist.

Qiao Yu put the hairpin on Wen Ge'er and thought to herself, Wang Jie is such a good kid.

"nice."

People around also said that it was beautiful, and some people were so sharp that they could tell the difference in the silver hairpin at a glance.

"Brother Wen is so lucky. Your husband's family thinks highly of you and has tattooed your name on their hairpin."

Wen'er's face was red, but he was not as speechless as before.

"Well, I'm lucky. Whoever marries me will also be lucky." Wen Ge'er said.

Xiao Bai, who was standing next to him, had red eyes when she heard this. It took her a while to come to her senses before she said, "Brother Wen, it's time to put on the red veil. Someone from my husband's family will be here soon. Don't miss the time."

Wen Ge'er's mother handed the new husband to them and went to her own yard to entertain the guests. Generally, most people in the village would go to the groom's house for wedding banquets, so the people who came to Wen Ge'er's house were his relatives and friends. It was enough to set up two tables in the yard of Wen Ge'er's mother's house.

Li Xiuniang and her younger sister were helping in the kitchen. Today they were going to make pickled fish, spicy braised pork head, pork stewed with vermicelli, spicy chicken, and stir-fried pork with garlic sprouts. They also chose five vegetarian dishes to make it perfect.

As soon as the morning hour passed, festive suona sounds were heard outside the house, and the bridesmaid came over with the groom, shouting auspicious words.

Qiao Yu followed a group of guys to the door to block people. From a distance, she saw her husband in the wedding procession. He was tall and strong, and she grinned when she saw him. Wang Jie was wearing a red wedding dress and riding on his Lightning bike, looking very much like a groom.

Qiao Yu got along well with Wang Jie's family, and since her husband was also outside, she wanted to let them off a little. However, Xiao Bai and the others saw through her and chased her away.

Wang Jie was bullied by his buddies for a while, but luckily he was sweet-mouthed and brought out many small red envelopes with two copper coins in them, and he called everyone he met and gave them out. Finally, within a quarter of an hour, he was let in.

The bridesmaid had already helped Wen Ge'er out. Wang Jie couldn't stop smiling when he saw his new husband wearing wedding clothes and a veil.

Wen Ge'er's mother held Wen Ge'er's hand and said, "Son, be filial to your parents-in-law after you get married. Sister Shi is a good person. Live a good life with your husband. If you are bullied, be sure to tell me. Don't bear it alone."

Wen Ge'er said shyly, "Oh, Mom. I will. Don't worry."

Wen Ge'er's father also said: "If they bully you, just tell me and I will help you!"

Wang Jie, who was listening, immediately assured: "Don't worry, father-in-law, only Wen Ge'er can bully me. He is still my superior in the shop."

The onlookers all burst into laughter.

Wen Ge'er's father glared at Wang Jie and stopped talking. Humph, this little brat is so smooth-talking.

The bridesmaid asked Wang Jie to squat down and carry the new husband onto the bridal sedan.

Then the people who come to pick up the bride and the people who send off the bride gather together and follow the sedan chair to the groom's house.

Wen Ge'er sat alone in the sedan chair, thinking that she was finally getting married today, and the person she married was the one she loved, and she felt happy. But she also felt a little sad when she thought that she would be going back to her parents' home in the future.

In order to marry him, Wang Jie's family gave a betrothal gift of ten taels, which was the highest betrothal gift in the village. This showed how much the Wang family valued Wen Ge'er, which really made Li Xiuniang feel relieved. At the beginning, Mrs. Li threatened that her Wen Ge'er would not be able to get married.

After all, the marriage was not far away, and the group arrived at Wang's house not long after walking. Wang's family had set up more than ten large tables in the yard and the open space outside the yard, and some cold dishes were already placed on the tables, all of which were real meat dishes. Most of them were prepared in advance by Aunt Shi who asked Qiao Yu to come over yesterday. There were garlic pork, braised pork intestines, cold kelp shreds, cold cucumbers, and fried peanuts. Hot dishes were being served one after another.

The bridesmaid asked the groom to get off the horse and kick the door of the sedan chair. The bridesmaid helped the groom to step over the fire basin in the yard. Then she started to sing the Sunday song.

Aunt Shi's family is very popular in the village. Many people came from the village, and it was very lively around when the couple was paying their respects to each other.

"Send to the bridal chamber."

When the bridesmaid's voice came, Wen Ge'er felt his hand being grabbed.

"Don't be afraid, it's me." Qiao Yu said. He was specifically asked by Aunt Shi to help Wen Ge'er into the new house. Aunt Shi said Qiao Yu was a lucky man, Wen Ge'er and he played well together, so it would be best for him to send him off.

Wen Ge'er immediately felt safe and followed Qiao Yu step by step towards his new house.

The new house is actually the room where Wang Jie lived before. Originally, the house was built as a new house for the children, so the room was built very large, which is completely suitable for the young couple to live in.

The room was fully equipped with tables, chairs and cabinets. Qiao Yu felt that the Wang family had put a lot of thought into it.

Qiao Yu sent the person off and then left. After a while, he came back with a bowl of food. When he was leaving, he happened to see Aunt Shi delivering food. It was still early in the day, and it was unknown when the wedding banquet would end. It was also dinner time, so he was worried that Wen Ge'er would be hungry.

"I've put the food your mother-in-law sent you on the table. Eat it when you're hungry. I have to go out to find my children." Qiao Yu said.

Wen Geer forgot that he was still wearing a veil and nodded, then reacted and said, "You can go quickly."

"Well! I'll collect your bowl when you're done eating."

"it is good."

When Qiao Yu arrived at the yard, she found that the young man who was escorting the bride sat at a table by himself, while her husband, three children, and the eldest uncle sat at another table. When he was hesitating whether to sit with the young man who was escorting the bride, the children found him.
