Chapter 609: The Daughter Who Got Married Off
"Bro, you better smile soon or sis-in-law's family is going to get angry." Anyone not in the know would think he's dissatisfied with the marriage, being forced into it!
Xu Qigang looked at the ridiculous big red flower on his chest and simply couldn't muster a smile. His reputation as the Living Yama was completely ruined now. Especially the bunch brought by Little Hooligan before, they almost rolled on the ground laughing.
Little Hooligan... he remembered, unless he never got married in his lifetime, he would have trouble.
Xu Yingshan cocked his head to look at the big red flower, also finding it extremely ugly. Where did brother find such awful friends? That big red flower, just frighteningly ugly, good thing it was his brother wearing it, if it were someone else, who knows how they might have beaten up that friend!
"Going to pick up the bride! Going to pick up the bride!" The two families weren't far apart, and along the way, they encountered many people blocking the car asking for wedding candies, which was a good thing in the countryside. Xu Qigang kept a cold face all along, scaring people from daring to block the car asking for wedding candies.
Moreover, it was the first time the countryside had seen a car being used to pick up the bride, which made people even less daring to block it under nervous feelings. It wasn't until they reached Sheng Ning's house that Xu Qigang finally managed to muster a faint smile, calling on Xu Yingshan to distribute the wedding candies.
Sheng Ning was sitting inside the house, just hearing the buzz outside. Waiting and waiting, she finally saw someone come in. Looking up to see the big red flower on Xu Qigang's chest, she couldn't help but snort out a laugh.
"Hahaha..."
Xu Qigang's handsome face instantly turned dark, "Don't laugh."
"That big red flower of yours is even bigger than those at the General Union," Sheng Ning finally realized. "Who did this? Such evil?"
"Little Hooligan!" The rescue team was ready, obviously up to no good.
Sheng An, with sharp ears, immediately scorned upon hearing Little Hooligan's name, "I knew he was a bad guy, brother-in-law, why do you hang out with such people?"
Before Xu Qigang could respond, Qin Yue, following behind, heard his name and came up to Sheng An, asking, "Why am I a bad guy? Tell me?"
Seeing him, Sheng An got scared and hid behind someone else. Coincidentally, it was Qi Lei.
"An'an!" Qi Lei patted her shoulder, gently consoling, "Don't be scared, he's just joking with you." Qi Lei had just arrived and happened to join in the buzz of welcoming the bride with everyone.
It must be said, An'an's sister indeed looked very attractive, none in ten miles and eight villages could match her beauty. Seeing the beautiful Sheng Ning in front of him, Qi Lei was even more certain that he liked An'an.
No matter how good-looking her sister was, he still felt An'an was the best.
The moment Qin Yue saw Qi Lei, he immediately bristled like an angered lion. His fists clenched unconsciously, and Xu Qigang, keenly aware of the change, kicked him timely, disdainfully saying, "Move aside quickly, don't delay me from getting married."
"Hahaha..." The scene burst into roaring laughter.
Shen Luhua came in carrying a washbasin, pushing people aside.
"Time to wash feet, from now on we'll pour out water as we send off our daughter."
The basin was placed in front of Sheng Ning, not really to wash, just a symbolic gesture. Xu Qigang personally bent down to wipe her feet dry, then helped her put on socks and shoes. He also placed a couple of cakes on the ground for her to step on.
Symbolizing climbing to greater heights.
After the foot-washing water was used, it was taken outside by a boy of the same clan arranged by Shen Luhua and poured out.
Symbolizing the notion that spilled water can't be gathered up.
Once a series of rituals were done, Xu Qigang finally carried his little wife out the door. Lao San Shen and Shen Luhua followed them to the doorstep, watching their daughter being taken away, they cried their eyes out.
