Chapter 807 Xiaowu's Wedding
After all, this stall at home also needs manpower to take care of it. If she followed her fifth brother to Fucheng, she would be blessed, but to be honest, she really couldn't bear to part with this spacious house at home.
They worked hard to build the big yard in front of them, and the fields also need to be taken care of by manpower. If the master is away and the servants are lazy, they will lose nothing but white rice and fat steamed buns.
Listening to the voices of several people, Bai Yunxi looked at her two daughters-in-law, held back her smile and waved her hands to appease them and sit down.
"Don't worry too much, mother has arrangements. Xiaowu is going to Fucheng to take up the post this time. He is not familiar with life and needs to explore everything on his own. If he brings too many family members, it will be a burden. When Xiaowu and his wife have established a foothold in Fucheng, It’s the best place for us to live there. Besides, we can’t live without people in our house. We need to work together for a long time, so we can’t just focus on one thing and lose the other.”
After listening to their mother's explanation, Bai Anyan and Xiao Si looked at each other. They both stood up and spoke solemnly to their mother,
"Don't worry, Mom, we will definitely guard the family business, do our part, support our fifth brother, and never hold him back."
Listening to the children's tone, Baiyunxi still feels quite accomplished, which proves that her chicken soup in recent years has not been in vain. Although their progress is relatively slow, every step is down-to-earth.
Nowadays, everyone has their own things to do and perform their duties, so they don't have other thoughts.
As the old saying goes, people are most afraid of being idle, because idleness can cause trouble.
After appeasing everyone's mood, the next step is Xiao Wu's wedding.
Although time is tight, not a step of the procedures that need to be followed are missed. It was lively and lively, and Sister Shan was married into the house in a glorious manner.
From then on, Zhang Yishan was the daughter-in-law of the Bai family.
Bai Xiaowu's wedding shocked the whole village, because not only the rural landowners came to congratulate him, but the mayor, the college master and the county magistrate also came. Everyone came to the door with congratulations and gifts, and their polite appearance was different from the serious appearance in their impression. completely different.
The people who came were either the county magistrate and the college master who were completely invisible on weekdays, or they had seen them from a distance and did not dare to approach the squire and landlord. But after these people arrived at Bai's house, they all smiled brightly and said hello to each other.
This kind of approachable attitude made them stunned, envious, and at the same time feeling proud. No matter what, the champion was the phoenix from their village, and it was very honorable to say it out.
As the suona of hundreds of birds approaching the phoenix got closer and closer, the red sedan chair turned into the village. When everyone saw it, they immediately greeted it happily. In addition to seeing the bride, you can also pick up wedding coins.
After the crowd dispersed with a roar, Chen Jiao was left standing alone on the roadside. Looking at the approaching red sedan, she stepped back cautiously and stood on the slope in the distance.
Although she specially changed into the latest clothes today, she still couldn't hide the tired look on her face as she watched the newlyweds holding bright red silk and being surrounded by people into the courtyard amidst the noisy congratulations of everyone.
Although the bride had a hijab on her head and could not see her face, she had seen the girl who had been to Willow Bay several times on weekdays. I have to say that the two of them are really talented and beautiful, a match made in heaven.
Lovely men and green women, naturally noble.
Chen Jiao rubbed her hands with regret in her eyes. If she had known she would not let her daughter offend Xiao Wu, she would find a good marriage for her and marry her in a glorious manner. Although she would not be able to call a slave, she would be able to do so. Life is easy.
No matter how bad it is, my daughter's whereabouts will not be unknown.
Obviously they are not the same kind of people, but she was blinded by lard and had a wishful thinking, insisting on letting her daughter cling to wealth and status. In the end, she was defeated and nothing was gained, and she also lost the daughter she had raised with all her heart.
"Ms. Chen, what are you doing standing there in a daze? Come in quickly. I heard that the bride is pretty, and there will be wedding gifts soon."
Being urged, Chen Jiao smiled bitterly and naturally did not join in the fun. She knew that Baiyunxi did not welcome her. In the past, she might have been able to make some small talk, but now she could no longer afford to offend this aunt.
If he makes her unhappy, she will be scolded again when she comes home.
On the day of Xiao Wu's wedding, the family was so busy that they had no time to care about other things. Chen Jiao stood in the distance and watched the excitement. Bai Yunxi didn't know anything about it. In her free time, Mrs. Song learned a few words from her.
Thinking of Xing'er's whereabouts, she felt nothing but regret.
After returning home three days later, Bai Yunxi prepared luggage for the two of them and got ready to go to Fucheng.
The documents for taking office have been sent to the capital long ago, and the local reception officials have also arranged an official residence for him. He can just wait for Xiaowu and his party to move in directly when they arrive.
As the departure was about to begin, Bai Yunxi held a family meeting after discussing with Xiao Wu.
"It's easy to travel tomorrow. Xiaowu and I have already discussed it. This time when we go to Fucheng, I will also explore the way and become familiar with each other. After all, I have eaten a few more years than the two of them. If anything happens, It can still help.”
"Since I'm going to stay with you for a while, after thinking about it, I'm going to take Yaya and Du Shi. Li Shi is taking the child. The weather is hot and tossing, which is not good for the child. I'll stay quietly and help your second sister-in-law take care of Zhuangzhuang. . Do you have any opinions?”
Listening to her mother-in-law's arrangement, Ms. Li looked at her chubby son in her arms and shook her head.
"Zhuangzhuang eats too much and sweats when he moves. It won't be good if he gets a rash. I agree to stay. In fact, I can take care of the child by myself. My sister-in-law can go with my mother. If I really can't take care of it, Come on, you can call your niece to help."
Bai Anjing waved her hands after hearing this, "I won't go. I'll stay at home with my second sister-in-law to take care of Zhuangzhuang. Mother can take my eldest sister-in-law and Yaya with her. I'll go with my second sister-in-law to see the world when there's a chance."
If she left, her eldest nephew would be so strong that he could fall off the bed if he wasn't watched. What if he fell? In addition to taking care of the child, there were also housework, and my second sister-in-law couldn't take care of it alone.
Listening to her daughter's voice, Bai Yunxi curled her lips,
"Don't worry, let's go and find the way first. When we get familiar with each other, we'll come to pick you up. Maybe we'll spend the New Year in the capital this year."
Several people listened to their mother's tone, and they would get together during the New Year, so there was no need to fight for it.
Yaya walked to Bai Yunxi, "Grandma, can I take Dong Ling with me?"
When mentioning Dong Ling, Bai Yunxi looked up and saw her squatting in the corridor at the door drawing circles.
"Yaya wants Dong Ling to accompany her?" As expected, the two of them developed feelings for each other.
"Well, although she doesn't talk, I feel at ease having her by my side." Yaya looked up, looked at her grandmother eagerly, and shook her arm coquettishly.
