Chapter 63: Wedding, Pei Yanning Returns (2)

At the same time, the sedan chair stopped at the gate of the new house, and Lingxi was taken out of the sedan chair amidst the joyous atmosphere.

The brazier at the door has been set up.

Gu Si's expression paused slightly.

There is a custom of jumping over a fire basin when getting married here.

It means to drive away bad luck and have a prosperous future.

Whether it is unlucky or not, Gu Si doesn’t believe it, but the implication behind it is still very good.

He picked up Lingxi and took a big step forward. The whole place burst into laughter, and the people welcoming the bride, seeing off the bride, and watching the fun cheered in unison.

Lingxi only saw a sea of ​​red, and people crowded together everywhere. Her face was still flushed until she was sent to the bridal chamber.

At this time, the bridal chamber was ablaze with red, with red curtains, red wedding quilts, and a bride sitting there in a red wedding dress.

Everyone knows that Gu Si's wife is outstanding in appearance. Now seeing her dressed up, everyone feels that there is no one in the world as beautiful as her. Even the stars in movie magazines are not as pretty as her.

Immediately after that, what were sent into the bridal chamber were pairs of boxes, washbasins, and kettles, as well as thick quilts, which were decorated with big red flowers and red "囍" characters on them. It was truly dazzling to look at.

The village was poor at the time and bright colors were seldom seen. If anyone could have a red handkerchief when getting married, it would be cause for joy for a long time.

But now...

The villagers exclaimed that their eyes had been opened, and they felt jealous.

But, who can blame Gu Laosi for being so popular that he was favored by the Pei family? They even built him a big yard. It is not surprising that he was given such a dowry as well.

With a cold face, Gu Si drove out the people who followed into the bridal chamber and bolted the door amid a burst of booing.

Lingxi was the bride, and now she was sitting there watching her fourth brother just looking at her. He didn't move or speak. Lingxi moved her body, and her face was red but the heat had not yet subsided.

"Why, what happened?"

She felt a little uncomfortable and couldn't help stuttering when speaking.

Gu Si smiled.

"Just look at my wife. My wife has always been the most beautiful, and today she is the most beautiful."

Lingxi: “…”

Gu Si came forward and pushed the peanuts, red dates, longans and lotus seeds scattered on the bed to the edge, and told Lingxi: "I didn't ask anyone to come in to accompany you because I was afraid you would feel uncomfortable. I left some cakes for you in the drawer, and there is hot water in the kettle. If you are hungry, eat something first, and I will come over to bring you food later."

It’s not that it’s not possible to find someone of the same generation or age, or a younger generation to accompany the bride, like other families do.

But Lingxi had little contact with outsiders, and she would be very uncomfortable facing strangers all of a sudden. Regardless of whether this was in accordance with the rules or not, on such a happy day, Gu Si was reluctant to make Lingxi uncomfortable, so he did not arrange for anyone else to come.

Lingxi nodded with a smile on her face, the heat on her face never subsided, which made Gu Si laugh.

He was reluctant to leave, and after all he remembered that there were people waiting for him outside to entertain him, so he left the bridal chamber.

There were dozens of tables set up for the lively banquet. This was the most sumptuous scene that Gujia Village had not seen in many years.

Chicken, fish, pork, one plate after another, full of oil and fat.

I had eaten a belly full of peanuts and sunflower seeds before the food was served. I swallowed my saliva and felt a little regretful.

"The Gu family is really willing to do this!"

"Hey, maybe it's the bride who's doing the hard work!"

The aunts and uncles in the village started gossiping secretly.

The people of Peijia Village go into the mountains to hunt every year. It is no secret that everyone in the village is a good hunter. The difference between wild boar meat and domestic pork can be tasted at once.

So each of them speaks with details and evidence.

As soon as Gu Si appeared, he was stopped by someone.

A group of Gu Qingbei's former friends followed suit.

"Old Four, you must drink today and you can't run away again.

Today is your big day, if you don't drink this, your wife won't think you have any problem with her." A group of people said this while making faces and laughing in a very ambiguous way.

Drink some wine!
If not now, when?
Want to go back to the house and find your beautiful wife?
dream!

Let him never come back today.

"Come on, come on, Fourth Brother, I'll give you a toast. I wish you and your sister-in-law a long and happy marriage."

"Yes, yes, yes, congratulations, Fourth Brother. You must drink this cup. Fourth Brother and Sister-in-law standing together are a match made in heaven, a perfect match!"

"Old Four!
Today, my brother wishes you a happy today every year. "

Gu Si: “…”

Is this how the words are used?

Gu Si was alone, with twenty or thirty people in front of him.

He subconsciously turned to look for Pei Jin, Pei Yu and Pei Xuan, but saw that the three brothers of the Pei family were also stopped and urged to drink, and the ones who persuaded them happened to be Gu Qingnan and Zhao Jianan who had agreed to help him block the wine.

Gu Si: “…”

!!!

On such a happy day, Gu Si did not offend others.

It’s just drinking!

drink!
At this moment, in the bridal chamber, Lingxi listened to the noise outside, her eyes fell on the bridal chamber whose entirety she had just seen, and a smile appeared on the corner of her mouth.

This is the bedroom.

It's about 30 to 40 square meters, with the door on the west side, next to the north wall, and the living room is outside.

Lingxi is now sitting on the kang next to the south window. She can see the situation in the yard from the window. The chef is cooking here and the table is set in the shed outside the door. Lingxi cannot see the specific situation over there.

Her eyes fell on the row of chests of drawers against the north wall, on which were placed a pair of red candles and some small objects in pairs. She smiled with her eyes curved.

But at this moment, Lingxi suddenly felt vaguely that the north window in the living room outside seemed to be opened, and she was stunned for a moment.

Everyone has gone out to eat now, is there anyone still in the living room?

The next moment, Lingxi's bedroom door was pushed open, and a person who seemed both strange and familiar to him walked in slowly.

The man was wearing a long gown with silver-white embroidered patterns. He had delicate features and an unparalleled noble temperament.

The moment he saw her, his anger instantly subsided, but the red in his eyes had not yet faded, indicating that he was very upset.

Lingxi stood up subconsciously and stared at it in a daze.

"It's only been a few years since we last met, how could you not recognize me?" He opened his arms, feeling a little nervous.

"know."

The person in front of her was not wearing a mask today, revealing eyebrows and eyes similar to Lingxi. The look in her eyes was the same as always, smiling and tolerant.

"Dad!" she whispered.

When she shouted this, she felt particularly wronged.

Lingxi threw herself into his arms, unable to stop crying.

She knew——

Uncle is daddy and always will be daddy!
At this moment, Lingxi had completely forgotten her previous desire to watch the fun.

Pei Yanning's anger was extinguished by Lingxi's tears. He patted her back tenderly with a gentle tone, but his eyes turned red again with the long-lost call of "Dad": "Be good, don't cry, baby, it's Daddy's fault, Daddy is back!"
-
A group of people were having fun trying to get Gu Si to drink, but soon they found that he was just sitting there motionless. Whenever someone toasted him, he would just glance at them coldly.

Then, sit up straight.

He just looked around from time to time, his eyes were blank and a little aggrieved, as if he was looking for someone but couldn't find him.

Everyone: "..."
