☆ 41. Chapter 41: Bridal Chamber

Chapter 41


: The wedding banquet was quite good in the countryside. Most people have fewer meat dishes and more vegetables, but his was a half-and-half arrangement of meat and vegetables.

First there were two cold dishes, one fried peanuts and the other mixed with shredded radish. Then there were four meat dishes and four vegetable dishes, braised pork, stewed fish, stewed pheasant meat, stewed rabbit meat, meat fried potato slices, meat fried bamboo shoots, meat stewed tofu, and scrambled eggs with green onions. Even the vegetable dishes had meat. The staple food was all big steamed buns, with only a small amount of cornmeal added, which tasted more fragrant than pure fine noodles. They were almost as big as a bowl. A woman would be full after eating one, and a man would be full after eating two dishes. Finally, they served meat slices and sauerkraut soup. Of course, wine was also served, not only on the men's table, but also on the women's and children's tables. The wine served was not the worst kind of wine that the country people usually drank, but the wine that was two steps higher and used as gifts.

When the dish was served, even the village chief and Ji Erye were secretly surprised, and nodded repeatedly, saying that Ji He's life was really good. Some people said that he was a spendthrift and that it was not necessary to spend so much money to get married. After praising him when they met him, they scolded him and asked him to be frugal and live a good life in the future.

Ji He was in high spirits when he was happy. He nodded to everything they said, and he understood whether it was for his own good.

Ji He's health was not good before, which was known to everyone in the village. Even though he was in good spirits now, no one dared to force him to drink, so Ji He had an easy time as a groom.

When it was almost time to eat, except for the elderly, the rest of the people helped to clean up, the women helped to clean up, and the men helped to send things away. Those who

were not active at ordinary times did not stay for long at this time. They said a few words to Ji He, helped to take away some things, and then returned to the village.

Lin Yongxin said, "Ji He, you are married now, so live a good life in the future. If you have any problems, come to me, I will definitely help you if I can."

The village chief's wife Zhang Yu'e also smiled and said, "After all, the village is still popular. This place is not far from the village, so you can often go to the village. It's best to move back to the village in the future, so that your uncle can rest assured and you can take care of them more."

Zhang Yu'e came to see how Ji He's family was doing. She found that although the house was shabby, it was filled with new furniture and exuded a sense of prosperity. In addition, Ji He hired a sedan chair for his wedding and the banquet was so good, so she knew that Ji He had some money in his hands. Thinking that he could get Zhang Xiaoyu from Wang Zhubo, she smiled at him. She thought to herself that she would get along with Ji He first from her own family, and then slowly resolve the conflict between him and Ji Jun.

Ji He smiled and said, "Aunt Lin is right. I'll make plans when I have more money."

Zhang Yu'e smiled and nodded. If a person feels that a person has changed, she will think that anything the other person says is good. She thinks Ji He is pleasing to the eye now.

Lin Yongxin was a little afraid that Zhang Yu'e would mention Ji Jun on such a good day, so he hurriedly pulled Zhang Yu'e away.

After they went out, Zhang Yu'e looked at him and said, "Are you still afraid that I will mention Ajun? I'm not that ignorant."
