Protagonist:

Li Xiulan

At six o'clock in the morning,

The Rolls-Royce lead wedding car was at the very front, the cars of Wang Yaohua's several fox-and-dog friends followed close behind, while Wang Dashan and Wang Erhai's cars were arranged at the very end.

The wedding motorcade set off in grand style.

It did not immediately drive out of the county town heading for Shanggou Village.

Instead, it circled the county town a full two laps before leaving the county town.

Every so often, all the vehicles had to honk their horns together once.

As if announcing to the entire county town that he, Wang Yaohua, had made it big — taking a Rolls-Royce to fetch the bride.

Wang Dashan drove his own car, his face full of gloom.

Couldn't help but say a sentence:

"Is there a need to make such a fuss like this?"

Mother Li Xiulan sat in the passenger seat, Wang Xiaohua and Gu Wenqing sat in the back seat.

Li Xiulan said:

"How they do things is their business, we shouldn't meddle with loose talk!"

Wang Dashan said irritably:

"Mom you don't know, Wang Yaohua just now actually had the nerve to ask me for a loan, and even said something about forgetting to reserve the hotel banquet's final payment — it's a joke! Just now if it weren't for Second Brother stopping me, I would've opened my mouth and scolded him properly!"

Li Xiulan, however, said:

"That fifty thousand yuan, since it's been lent out, there's no need to get angry."

Wang Dashan puzzled:

"Mom, weren't you strongly opposed to me lending money to Wang Yaohua? In a couple days I'll go demand it back from him!"

Li Xiulan, however, said:

"No need. If you go demand it from him, you won't get it back either. The reason Mom opposed it was because I knew that once you lent it, you'd never get it back. Forget it, just don't lend anymore in the future."

Wang Dashan, however, still couldn't swallow his anger:

"I lent him money out of the kindness of my heart, to help him tide over a crisis, and he turns out like this — serves him right to be poor for a lifetime!"

Wang Xiaohua spoke up at this time:

"Big Brother, Mom's right, no need to be angry. In the future if he dares ask you for a loan again, you just first make him repay the money. Since the previous loans haven't been repaid, you can righteously refuse him."

Gu Wenqing spoke up to ask at this time:

"Classmate Xiaohua, speaking of which, are weddings held on your side all this particular about pomp and circumstance?"

Wang Xiaohua didn't know whether to laugh or cry:

"My cousin doing it like this is just an isolated case. Actually, weddings around here are mostly simple and unadorned, they wouldn't be extravagant and wasteful."

Li Xiulan said:

"This is still the first time I've seen someone rent a luxury car to hold a wedding."

Can only say Li Xiulan has seen little and finds much strange.

In recent years, the bridal escort ceremony at weddings has trended toward renting luxury cars to serve as the lead wedding car.

Especially those who like to compare and save face, they all rent a luxury car to prop up appearances.

Anyway, renting a luxury car for one or two days isn't extremely expensive, just a few thousand yuan.

And at this time, the other side.

Wang Yaohua sat in the back seat of the lead wedding car, his face somewhat gloomy.

Wang Dashan and Wang Erhai unwilling to lend him money, then he's in a real bind.

Because he indeed did not reserve the final payment for those 20 banquet tables.

Can't say it's a lot, can't say it's a little, but this twenty thousand yuan, if he can't produce it, is enough to make him lose all face and dignity.

What to do about this?

And the other side.

Shanggou Village.

Li Yuncui put on her red bridal attire; today is her auspicious wedding day.

But the home was cold and cheerless.

The bridal room's decoration was very shabby — just some Double Happiness characters pasted up, one red quilt swapped in, and that was it.

No other guests at home, only her parents and her.

They didn't call other relatives to come send her off.

Because Li Zhenxing's debts were exposed and his contact list blasted, many relatives kept their distance from them.

Li Zhenxing also had no face to invite relatives over; after all, some relatives' money still hasn't been repaid.

As for bridesmaids and such, Li Yuncui didn't go looking either.

Ever since her premarital pregnancy, returning to Shanggou Village to give birth and raise the child, back then she had already cut off contact with all those former friends.

Later she eloped with Zhou Zhihao, then experienced a breakup and returned to Shanggou Village again.

All kinds of upheavals had long since detached her life from all her previous circles.

Friends she hadn't contacted in too long, she was too embarrassed to directly ask them to come be bridesmaids.

And asking for money to hire a best man was even more impossible.

After all, she knew very well what the family's financial situation was.

So in the end she simply didn't look for a best man at all.

On this great joyous day, the two newlyweds' situations were vastly different on both sides: Wang Yaohua's side was bustling and lively, while Li Yuncui's side was cold and deserted.

It could be called an absurd spectacle.

But even more absurd things were yet to come.

"Daughter, Yaohua and them should be arriving soon; your mother and I will go to the Village Entrance to welcome Yaohua, you stay here and wait."

Li Zhenxing and Luo Jiaxin went out.

For ordinary wedding customs, there was no need for the bride's parents to go out to welcome.

But there was no choice; no one had been hired to help with the arrangements.

So it had to be this way.

"Okay, Dad, Mom, you go!"

Li Yuncui replied with that one sentence.

Then she watched her parents leave.

Today was her wedding day; although there was no romantic wedding like she dreamed of when she was young, Li Yuncui still vowed in her heart that as long as today passed and she became Wang Yaohua's wife, she would live well from then on.

Because she felt Wang Yaohua was an honest man; although she didn't love him, she could entrust the rest of her life to him.

Her heart was filled with countless thoughts when suddenly footsteps came from outside the door.

Li Yuncui heard the noise and hurried to open the door.

She found that the person standing at the Door was not her husband Wang Yaohua, but Zhou Zhihao, with lingering ties!

"What are you doing here?"

Seeing Zhou Zhihao, Li Yuncui's face turned pale with shock, and she was about to close the room door.

However, Zhou Zhihao propped up the door panel with one hand, and no matter how hard Li Yuncui pushed, she couldn't close the door.

"Today is your wedding, such an important day; of course I have to come see you off!"

As soon as the words fell, Zhou Zhihao rushed in.

Then he pushed Li Yuncui down onto the red bed in the marriage room.

Li Yuncui struggled:

"Didn't you say you weren't coming?"

But Zhou Zhihao quibbled:

"Did I say that? How would I know?"

Li Yuncui continued to struggle:

"Don't do this; Wang Yaohua will be here soon."

But Zhou Zhihao said:

"Rest assured; before he arrives, I will disappear on my own!"

His speech came with hurried breathing, like surging sea waves beating against reefs.

So much so that creaking sounds could be heard outside the house.

Like a storm's assault, wave after wave came head-on; Li Yuncui had already given up struggling, replaced by moans on the edge of pain and love.

But halfway through!

At this moment, firecracker sounds suddenly came from outside!

"Pop-pop-crackle!"

The piercing explosions startled everything, stopping the wild wind and huge waves abruptly.

"Hurry and leave; Wang Yaohua is here to escort the bride!"

Li Yuncui hurriedly pulled up her wedding dress, her face full of panic.

Zhou Zhihao's face was also full of panic; he never expected Wang Yaohua to come so fast.

Pulling up his jeans, he opened a crack in the door and looked outside.

But he discovered Li Zhenxing, Luo Jiaxin, and Wang Yaohua walking in.

Today's Wang Yaohua was beaming with joy; the Rolls-Royce as the main wedding car had given him plenty of face!

And at this moment, he was about to welcome his bride!

From now on, he had shaken off the identity of a large-age single man; no one would mock him for having no partner, no one would say he had no ability; his life would enter a new stage!

He was full of spring breeze and pride, completely unaware that in the bride's room, there was another man.

"Oh no, they're coming; we can't leave!"

Seeing Wang Yaohua walk into the Courtyard, Zhou Zhihao only then panicked to the point of trembling lips.

He no longer had the courage from when he rushed into the room.

Because he knew that if this matter was caught by Wang Yaohua and he was caught in adultery on the spot, Wang Yaohua might beat him to death directly.
