When everyone waiting to see the bride in front of the village office building heard someone ask Zhang about his proposal to marry Grandma Cao’s daughter, the adults all smiled.
"Huh." Grandma Zhang was angry because she didn't understand what the person meant by asking that, so she snorted from her nose and admitted it.
"You probably don't know yet, but the daughter-in-law Zhou Xialong is going to take home today is the girl Li Chunxiu who was picked up by Granny Cao next to the cross well."
People who don’t mind watching the excitement finally reveal the answer to the mystery.
Grandma Zhang's mind felt as if it had been washed away by a flood, and she was blank for a moment. She came back to her senses after a while, gasping and asked: "Tell me again, who is Zhou Xialong's new wife?"
"It won't change if I say it again. Zhou Xialong's new wife is Granny Cao's girl by the cross well."
"Grandma Cao is marrying her daughter. I heard that all the members of the Cao family are gone. There are still several tables of people bringing wedding gifts to the Zhou family today. It's quite honorable."
"Although Granny Cao's daughter was picked up, she has become a member of the Cao family, and she is married to Zhou Xialong. How can the Cao family not give her dignity?"
"My enemy, from now on the Cao family will be the mother-in-law of Zhou Xialong. If they don't give dignity to Granny Cao's daughter today, they won't want the Zhou family to give them face in the future."
The villagers are talking about it. The Cao family is still very kind. No matter what their attitude was in the past, they are now supporting Granny Cao's family. Only in the future will they have the honor to call themselves Li Chunxiu's natal family. The Zhou family naturally treats the Cao family.
I'll be a little more polite.
Listening to the villagers' comments, Grandma Zhang felt a surge of anger rush up to her head, then rush down and stay in her heart. She felt so suffocated that her chest felt like a huge boulder weighing on her chest, and she almost couldn't breathe.
She had said before that if Zhou Xialong wanted to marry again, he could only marry a blind, lame or stupid woman, but then someone else told her that the one Zhou Xialong was going to marry was Granny Cao's daughter!
She knew that Granny Cao had gone to see the daughter she had picked up many times in secret. When she heard that the woman had not been sterilized, she went to arrange a marriage and wanted to marry him back to Zhang Ke as his wife.
I originally thought it would definitely work. After all, the woman was picked up. If I didn’t find a man quickly, would I be waiting to be kicked out by the Cao family?
However, Granny Cao refused, and the woman also refused her family's proposal of marriage.
She didn't give up, and went there once in the first half of the year, but was also rejected. The woman said she would not marry and would stay at home to support Granny Cao in her old age.
As a result, now I want to marry Zhou Xialong!
Grandma Zhang was so angry that she felt like there were countless fires burning in her heart. Listening to the villagers talking happily, she couldn't stay any longer and left quickly.
She rushed home carrying her things, and met several people on the way. They were all going to the village office to wait to see the bride. They even asked her to go, which made her so angry that she almost vomited blood.
Grandma Zhang was so angry that she came home and saw that the door of her house was locked. She opened the door and slammed it shut. She pulled a chair in the main room and sat down, gasping for air.
She feels she shouldn’t come back!
Also, why did the person who told them about Zhou Xialong's divorce not tell them that Zhou Xialong was getting married again? What kind of peace of mind did he have?
Thinking of Li Chunxiu, who she and her son Zhang Ke failed to marry but was easily married by Zhou Xialong, Grandma Zhang became even more angry. If that woman didn't marry anyone, she still respected her as a man and turned around to marry Zhou Xialong.
He is also a bitch who flatters the superior and suppresses the inferior.
She decided that she must tell Zhang Ke that a better woman than Li Chunxiu would come back so that Li Chunxiu would regret going.
Feeling angry and unable to stay at home, Grandma Zhang put down her things and went to the village office again. She wanted to see what benefits the Zhou family had promised Li Chunxiu to make the woman willing to marry Zhou Xialong.
Zhang's family returned to the village happily to see Zhou Xialong's excitement, but the excitement made her angry. She left angrily, and the people who were waiting to see the excitement in the village office building did not pay attention.
When the bride came again, none of the villagers laughed at her. They secretly waited to see what Zhang's expression would be when the bride entered the village.
Brother Zhou didn't know that Zhang Ke's wife had come back to see his excitement. He led the team through the rural street, entered a side road when they were about to leave the village, and then took a big detour before the team drove to Granny Cao's house.<
/p>
Grandma Cao's house is not far from the street, but there is only a small alley leading to Xiangxiang Street, which cannot be passed by cars, so the Zhou family can only take a long way to pick up relatives.
The people of the Cao family were waiting as if they were looking through the water. When they saw the Zhou family's motorcade, especially the bridal car, they knew that the Zhou family was very concerned about the marriage, which made them feel more proud.
The young men of the Cao family guided the car to turn around and park properly on the bluestone road next to the well hole and in front of the neighbor's house.
The motorcade did not set off firecrackers on the way to the bride's house. When the car was parked, the young man in charge of setting off the firecrackers strung two strings of thousand-ring firecrackers together to the door of Grandma Cao's house, and then lit the fuse.
With the sound of firecrackers, everyone came out to watch the excitement.
The people who picked up the relatives carried baskets from the car and carried them into Grandma Cao's house one load after another, including meat, rice, wine, candies, etc.
The elders of the Cao family were waiting in the main room of Granny Cao's house. When the wedding reception team arrived, some people accompanied the bride-to-be and sat down in the main room to drink tea and eat fruits. Several older female elders directed the young people to open the baskets brought by the groom's family.
The husband's family gave the Cao family a decent face, including all the necessary items for a wedding in the countryside, four nines of red envelopes, and filial piety gifts for Granny Cao and Granny Cao's male cousins-in-law.
After viewing the wedding gift from the groom's family in public, the Cao family's elders directed people to carry the basket into Grandma Cao's bedroom, and then sorted it out. Some of the things were left behind, and some were kept to press the basket. The groom's family was not allowed to carry empty baskets.
Go back.
The male elders of the Cao family sat with the people who came to welcome the bride for a while, setting the table and serving food and drinks. The Cao family drank with the welcoming procession.
It was not lunch, but a banquet for the bride’s family to entertain the groom’s family. It was a ceremonial banquet, not a formal meal. The formal banquet for the guests would not be until at least eleven o’clock.
The wedding team has to go back, drive, and don't drink. The Cao family won't persuade them to drink. Just say what you mean and let it go.

After the banquet was over and we sat for a while, after 10:30, the groom's family came to welcome the bride, Mrs. Xi, also known as Quanfu's mother-in-law, and asked the bride's family to dress up the bride, which is what the ancients called 'make-up'.
The Quanfu mother-in-law invited by the Zhou family is Grandma Zhang San. Zhang Laosan and his wife have sons and daughters, and their children also have sons and daughters. The old people are in good health, and their children and grandchildren are all in order. Grandma Zhang San has a good life and good fortune.
If your family members want to marry you, most of them are willing to ask Grandma Zhang San to be your bride-in-law.
The Cao family invited an elderly mother-in-law, who has both children and grandchildren, to be the mother-in-law of Quanfu. The husband's family invited the bride to dress up, and the mother-in-law Quanfu went into the bride's room and put on the makeup for the bride.
The bride, Li Chunxiu, and her two children have not shown up yet. They have already tidied themselves up and combed their hair, leaving only the hair and face sent by the husband's family.
Mother-in-law Quanfu combed the bride's hair with a comb, sang a hair-combing song, combed her hair a few times, inserted the two silver-inlaid gem hairpins sent by the groom's family into the bun, and applied lipstick.
,make up.
The bride's makeup was finished, and Granny Quanfu delivered a letter to the outside.
Grandma Xipo Zhang San received the letter and urged the bride to come out of the palace again according to etiquette. The young people welcoming the bride were already ready. When Xipo asked the bride to come out of the palace again, firecrackers were set off outside.
Firecrackers went off three times in succession. The elders of the Cao family got up and placed mats and two new quilts in front of the hall. The old ladies entered the bride's room and helped the bride up.
The wedding team surrounded the groom and waited outside the bride's room. When the door opened, Xi Po handed one end of the big red flower to the groom and the other to the bride. She sang a local rural wedding song.
Grandma Xi urged the bride to leave the palace, Grandma Cao shed tears, and several of the Cao family's sisters-in-law sang wedding songs on their behalf.
Yes, it’s okay not to sing. When she sang, Ms. Cao’s mother-in-law, Ms. Li, burst into tears. Cao Qingyue and Cao Bingyue also cried when they saw their grandma and mother crying.
A rural saying goes that when a woman gets married, she will not cry until she gets married.
Don’t cry and don’t make fortune. Firstly, it means that if the bride doesn’t cry when she gets married, it means that she won’t go well in her husband’s family. If it doesn’t go well, she won’t get rich or prosperous. Secondly, it means that if the bride doesn’t cry when she gets married, it means that the bride’s family won’t make good fortune when she gets married.
The bride will not be allowed to leave the palace until she cries.
The Cao family's sister-in-law sang a song for the married girl. The married girl was supposed to sing a "Thanks to Parents" song to thank her parents for raising her. Ms. Li is from another province and cannot sing the local tune.
Then, the umbrella girl Chen Xiaozhu came on stage and sang a song of thanks to her parents on behalf of the bride.
At the end of the song, the Cao family's sister-in-law sang a song to persuade women on behalf of Granny Cao, and the clan members sang the "Song of Leaving Mother".
Next, the men of the Cao family sang the song "Thank you for coming."
The guests sang for the second time, and the wedding team all thanked each other. The sound of firecrackers continued outside. The firecrackers went off and then stopped, and then went off again, three times in a row.
Firecrackers came out of the pavilion three times. Granny Cao and the Cao family's sisters-in-law walked out of the room with the bride in their arms, and took the newlyweds to the hall to bid farewell to the ancestors of the Cao family.
The newlyweds thanked their ancestors, and the Cao family placed a chair in front of the incense table. Grandma Cao sat down to receive the tea ceremony from the newlyweds.
Grandma Cao was happy that she was marrying her daughter, but she couldn't help but cry and couldn't say anything. She only told the couple to be diligent, discuss everything, and never let each other be idle.
I only said a few words but couldn't continue, so I kept wiping my tears.
Cao Qingyue and Cao Bingyue quickly persuaded grandma.
The two sisters also wore retro Tang suits and coats and skirts, mainly in gold and red colors, with double buns on their heads. There were also two strings of silver bells tied to Cao Bingyue's little knot, which jingled and jingled, which was particularly cute.
The newlyweds bid farewell to Granny Cao, then bowed in all directions to bid farewell to the elders of the Cao family, and were led out by Po Xi. The girl holding the umbrella held the umbrella above the bride's head when she stepped out of the threshold, and Po Xi led the couple to the wedding car.
Boarding on the side.
The elders of the Cao family gathered behind the newlyweds, while the young people carried the wedding baskets from the groom's family and the bride's dowry behind them.
The sound of firecrackers went off one after another. The groom led the bride to the float, helped the bride into the car, and then got on the car.
Zhou Tianlan was still sitting in the passenger seat, holding Cao Bingyue in her arms again. The girl holding the umbrella also sat in the wedding car, next to the bride. When the float went out, it was single, but when it came back, it was a pair.
The wedding team arranged for the bridegrooms of the Cao family to take a van and an electric tricycle. Cao Qingyue also took the wedding party. She and several elders of the Cao family sat in the van with Xi Po, while some of the younger Cao family members took the motorcycles of the wedding team.
