Chapter 23 Attending the Wedding Banquet

◎【2nd Update】◎

At the other end, at the gate of the Shen family.

Qian Baoru led Zhao Laosi's family to stand in the middle of the village road. They didn't look like they were here to attend the wedding banquet, but rather to cause trouble.

The villagers passing by here would take a few more glances at them, thinking that there would be a lot of fun.

Someone told the Shen couple about their arrival, and Wang Xiaoyun's face became even uglier. Fearing that Qian Baoru and the others were up to something bad, she hurried to find Shen Yuanzheng to discuss countermeasures.

Shen Yuanzheng was much calmer than her. He walked through the yard and went straight to the gate. When he saw the old lady of the Zhao family, his sullen face immediately changed into a smile.

"Auntie, why don't you come in now that you are here? Come in and sit down. I guess Tianbai and the others will be here soon."

In Dongshan Village, Shen Yuanzheng was only afraid of two people, one was his dead father, and the other was Qian Baoru.

In the early years, the two families were neighbors. Since he was a child, his father had taught him to treat the Zhao family well. At first, he thought it was because the Zhao family had done a favor to his family. Later, as he grew up, he found out that his widower father had always been secretly in love with Qian Baoru, whose husband had died. Unfortunately, the man had feelings for her but the girl had no interest in him. The old lady never liked him at all, which led to the marriage between the Zhao and Shen families.

Perhaps he was successfully brainwashed by his father since he was a child. Every time he saw Qian Baoru, he felt like he saw a half-mother. He was both respectful and scared. He wanted to say hello and leave immediately.

Qian Baoru raised her eyelids and looked at him without smiling, "No need, I told the second brother to wait for him here."

This is the middle of the road, they don't look like they are waiting for someone, but rather like they are making trouble, but he didn't dare to say this, he could only move his lips and stand aside to wait with them.

Among the Zhao family, Zhao Zhengxi's wife Lin Xing'er also came back from her parents' home. As the village beauty of the neighboring village, she is slender and tall, standing there proudly, which seems a bit out of place.

Zhao Taohua had no good feelings towards this third sister-in-law. In the book, after the Zhao family encountered a series of misfortunes, Lin Xing'er completely ignored their old friendship and not only proposed a divorce, but also stole all the valuable things of the Zhao family. For such a person, she felt that paying more attention to her was a waste of time.

Before this, the original body and Lin Xing'er got along well. Now that the original body has changed its heart, Lin Xing'er is very sensitive to the difference.

She gently tugged at the corner of Zhao Zhengxi's clothes and whispered, "What's wrong with your sister? Why doesn't she say anything when she sees me?"

Zhao Zhengxi turned his head and stared at her fingers holding the corner of the clothes. He quietly pulled the clothes back from her hands, looking as cold as he could be.

Lin Xing'er withdrew her hand in dismay, feeling unwilling.

They were now husband and wife, so why couldn't he accept her? He was such an ungrateful blockhead!

At this moment, a loud sound of gongs and drums came, and it was the groom who brought the bride.

Everyone looked over at the same time, and saw Shen Tianbai riding a 28-inch bicycle with Zhao Miaomiao behind him, riding slowly. He looked serious, and there was no trace of joy on his face that a groom should have.
