Chapter 228 The Wedding Is Done
The crowd was silent for a while, and soon became lively again. Everyone congratulated Mr. Yan on his wedding and said auspicious and auspicious words.Dong Bao reckoned that even if someone wanted to leave right now, they wouldn't leave, so it wasn't obvious that he was going against Mr. Yan.

"If you say Mr. Yan is a real man, the prime minister can pull a boat!" Someone boasted, "If I had taken off my shoes long ago, I would have slapped that woman with the soles of my shoes! If I tie her up and send her to the official, she must be sentenced." She can't be exiled for three thousand miles, how could she be let off so easily!"

"Master Yan is a talent! He thrived without that woman. I think that woman is Kefu. No matter how repentant I am, I can't keep her!"

"It must be that the concubine doesn't want her anymore. She is old and decrepit and has come back. She wants to cheat Mr. Yan. Our Mrs. Yan is a good person, but we can't bear this useless attitude!"

Under the deliberate comments and compliments of hundreds of people, Mr. Yan immediately became an inspirational model of successful people who endured humiliation.

The wedding interrupted by Feng Cuiju continued, as if Feng Cuiju's arrival was just a small episode and had no impact on today's wedding.This time, there were no troublemakers. Under the auspices of the head of the academy, Mr. Yan and Mrs. Li first paid homage to Tiandi and Mr. Yan's parents, and then the husband and wife bowed to each other.

Next, they were not sent to the bridal chamber, but arranged for Mrs. Yan and Mrs. Li to sit at the main seats. Dongbao and Xiaoxu were called out from the crowd by Aunt Qiuxia. Stepfather and stepmother kowtow to offer tea.

Mats were also placed in front of Mr. Yan and Mrs. Li. The two children, Dong Bao and Xiao Xu, both wore the same red silk and satin clothes, which were festive and beautiful. Dong Bao knelt in front of Mr. Yan, and respectfully handed over The tea cup yelled, "Father, please use tea." Master Yan quickly took the tea cup and drank a big mouthful of tea, then helped Dong Bao up, took out a red envelope from his body, stuffed it into Dong Bao, and said with a smile : "Good boy, take it."

"Hey." Dong Bao stuffed it into his sleeve with a smile, touched the red envelope with about three or four pieces of silver in it, secretly thinking that his stepfather is really generous.

And Xiao Xu also knelt down to offer tea to Li Shi earnestly, and when Li Shi took the tea cup, Xiao Xu kowtowed to Li Shi, and yelled crisply: "Mother!"

Li Shi burst into tears immediately, quickly hugged Xiao Xu, wiped his face and said: "My good boy, we don't have so much politeness, we don't need to kneel." He also gave Xiao Xu a big red envelope.

"Certificate!" With the shout of the dean of the academy, the sound of firecrackers and gongs and drums sounded again, which meant that Mr. Yan and Mrs. Li had already saluted and became an official husband and wife.

Master Yan knew that Li Shi was thin-skinned, so he didn't drag her to toast the guests, but only let her go back to the room to rest, and told Dong Bao to stay with Li Shi well.

There was a lively wedding banquet in the yard, with the sound of toasting, drums and congratulations, as if the farce that Feng Cuiju had just happened never happened at all.

Dong Bao sat with Mrs. Li on the newly-married bed. The bed was covered with brand-new mattresses. In the corner of the bed were stacked six quilts printed with the characters of "Double Happiness" and "Double Happiness". There are red combs, green onions and chopsticks wrapped in red paper are placed on the window sill, and everything in the room is bright red and festively dazzling.

"Mother, what are you thinking?" Dong Bao asked at this moment.

Mrs. Li sighed, patted her somewhat numb face, and said softly, "This matter...it's not his fault."

Dong Bao laughed, Mrs. Li meant that she didn't intend to pursue it anymore, and she was going to live like this, so she nodded and said, "I think so too." They have known Mr. Yan for more than a year, what is Mr. Yan like? People, they still know quite well.Besides, the two of them have already done their marriage affairs. If they separated because of this terrible thing, it would be a joke. When it is time to be tolerant, we must be tolerant.

"Mother, if you hear something unpleasant in the future, just pretend you didn't hear it." Dong Bao took Li Shi's hand and said, she had a hunch that there would be all kinds of rumors before tomorrow, since she decided to make peace with Yan If adults go to the end, they must have the sacrifice and awareness to go to the end.

Mrs. Li nodded with a smile, touched Dong Bao's head and said: "This mother knows, since... hey, I have heard all kinds of ugly things. As long as our mother and I live well, we don't care what others say."

Through the carved window, she could see the tall figure of Mr. Yan toasting at the table in the yard. Just looking at it made her feel at ease. This was something she couldn't get from her previous husband. Since she decided to marry Mr. Yan, The attention and respect Mr. Yan gave her made her realize what a real marriage is.

Marriage is a life of two people who have a lot to discuss, respect and considerate each other, the husband protects his wife and children, and the wife takes care of her husband and children. It is by no means what she was like when she was in the Song family. First, she was used by the Song family as a tool for giving birth to boys, and later as a coolie and a punching bag , Let alone say a word of his own in front of Song Yang, he didn't even dare to speak loudly, for fear that something would make Song Yang dislike him, and he would give him another cold face and reprimand.

She has just realized the prelude to a happy marriage, and she has not officially entered this life, how can she be willing to give up such a good Lord Yan, such a well-behaved Xiao Xu?If she lets go, most women will rush to take over from behind, she is not stupid!
After a while, Xiaoxu and Quanzi came in together carrying a tray, on which were chopsticks, several bowls and four big white flour steamed buns that were still steaming.Because Xiaoxu is short and Quanzi is tall, Quanzi had to half-bow to Xiaoxu's height, fearing that the dishes in the bowl would be spilled, so the two carried the tray into the room with great difficulty. Dong Bao hurried forward to pick up the tray and put it on the dressing table.

"I said I can do it myself, Xiao Xu has to do it, it's a lot of trouble!" Quanzi grinned, complaining half-truthfully.

Xiao Xu blushed and argued, "I want to bring food to my mother and sister!"

Li smiled from ear to ear, touched Xiao Xu's head and said, "When you grow up, you will be able to serve meals by yourself."

Dong Bao twisted Xiao Xu's chubby face, and said with a smile: "Sycophant!" He said and took off the fastened bowl. The dishes included stewed chicken, fish cubes, small crispy meat, and big meat stewed tofu , meatball soup, it looks like a good dish picked from the table, smelling the aroma of the dish, Dongbao is even more hungry.

"Master Yan asked my mother to serve the dishes at the teacher's place." Quanzi said, rubbing his head and grinning again: "At first, my brother said to bring it for us, but my mother refused, saying that my brother is an older child." It's too late to enter the aunt's new house, so let me and Xiao Xu bring it over."

Thinking of the tall and strong Lin Shi, Mrs. Li sighed: "You have all grown up. In two years, Quanzi will also be a strong young man. Hurry up and go out to eat, don't starve yourself."

"I can't be hungry! My mother has already packed the food for us and put it in our bowls. We can eat it when we go there." Quanzi laughed, and quickly ran out with Xiao Xu.

Mrs. Li handed the chopsticks to Dong Bao, and broke a steamed bun for Dong Bao, and said with a smile, "Hurry up, I heard your stomach rumbling just now."

Dong Bao took it with a smile, she sat on the chair, Li Shi sat on the edge of the bed, and they ate around the dressing table.

Mrs. Li tasted a few mouthfuls of the dish, nodded in satisfaction and said, "This dish is not bad. I heard from your father that Mr. Qu's cooking skills are good, it's really not bad!"

After eating Dongbao's dishes for so long, Li's taste has also improved a lot. He knows that cooking is delicious and he is willing to put oil in it. Like Song's, he only puts a few drops of dark vegetable oil in a large pot of dishes. No matter how skillful the cook is, he can't cook delicious dishes.But it’s definitely not that the more oil you put, the better it tastes. Like the pork stewed cabbage that the countrymen cook in winter when they slaughter pigs, many people don’t know how to eat it. The dish was cold after a while, and the solidified lard was two fingers thick, and it tasted greasy, and it would be a pity not to eat it.

This teacher Qu's craftsmanship is really good. Although it can't catch up with Dong Bao's variety of tricks, it's just this simple home-cooked stew. Most cooks are strong.

Dong Bao took a while to realize who Li Shi said "your father" was. He couldn't help laughing, nodded and said, "It's very good. When I was outside, I heard someone praise Teacher. It is said that he is very difficult to invite, because he is too old, and he has not come out to serve people for many years."

Mrs. Li smiled and nodded, Mr. Qu and Mr. Yan, who were so hard to hire, have all been invited here, doesn't it just show that he attaches great importance to this marriage.

When the banquet was halfway through, Dong Bao and Li Shi also finished their meal, and when Dong Bao was about to take out the bowls and chopsticks, several people suddenly came to the door, and the leader was Aunt Qiuxia who was smiling happily And Li Hongqin, followed by Guizhi Hehua and Gao Shi.

"Why are you here now? It's only been a while since the banquet started, are you full yet?" Mrs. Li hurriedly got up and asked.

Aunt Qiuxia quickly sat Li Shi on the bed, and said with a smile: "I'm full, there are a lot of dishes on the table, I'm full after just a few dishes, and there are still a lot of dishes left that haven't been touched. Only the men are still eating, and they are drinking, which takes more trouble than us."

Mrs. Li nodded with a smile, and whispered to Qiuxia and the others: "When the banquet is over, you guys will leave later. For those untouched dishes, you guys will share them and take them home to eat. There is also swill, Qiuxia. Xia, later you go to the shop to get the big ash and the cart, and take the slop home to feed the pigs."

"Okay, I'm not being polite to you." Aunt Qiuxia smiled, and smiled kindly at Dongbao: "Tomorrow my family will cut wheat, Dongbao, would you like to take Xiaoxu back to play?"

Dong Bao nodded quickly, "I'm going, we'll be there around noon, and I'll bring you meals by the way."

"Don't send food, there are a lot of leftovers today, and I can freeze them with well water for a few days!" Aunt Qiuxia laughed, she wanted Xiaoxu and Dongbao to come out, and give more to Master Yan and Mrs. Li Spending time alone is not about thinking about the meal delivered by the future daughter-in-law.
