Chapter 72

The next day at dawn, before the sky was bright, Liu Limin rode his bicycle to the Sihe Academy.

Immediately after, Li Dong and Ma Liang also arrived with their kitchen colleagues.

Shazhu, Li Dong, Ma Liang, and others stayed at home to prepare the food.

Cao Weiguo, Xu Damao, and Liu Limin rode their bicycles to pick up the bride.

When the three arrived at Shangti Village, the village entrance was already crowded with villagers.

"The groom is here!"

"Whoa! Three bicycles!"

"The Song family truly found a good son-in-law!"

Looking at the three bicycles, the villagers' eyes were full of envy.

Bicycles were treasures in this era; there weren't even five in the whole commune.

There was only one second-hand bicycle in their village, which belonged to the village head.

There were quite a few girls in the village who married into the city, but it would be considered impressive if there was even one bicycle to pick up the bride.

"Grandpas, grandmas, uncles, aunts, older brothers, older sisters... dear villagers!"

"From today on, I am the son-in-law of Shangti Village. The wedding candies I brought aren't many, but they are a token of my heart."

Cao Weiguo carried a bag of wedding candies and scattered them in large handfuls.

"It's White Rabbit!"

"So many candies!"

"This young man is good!"

The villagers were full of joy, and Song Hu welcomed them with a smile: "Brother-in-law, come into the village quickly!"

"The groom is here!"

"The groom is picking up the bride!"

Cao Weiguo arrived at the Song family, paid respects to his father-in-law and mother-in-law, and distributed wedding candies to everyone.

Amidst the laughter, Cao Weiguo saw the bride.

Song Yulan was wearing a white printed shirt, with a red flower pinned to her chest, and blush on her face.

It would be very rustic in later generations, but in Cao Weiguo's eyes, she was as beautiful as a fairy.

Cao Weiguo said with deep affection: "Wife, from now on, I will love you, cherish you, until the end of time!"

Song Yulan was shy and moving: "Weiguo, today is the happiest day of my life."

"So sweet!"

"The bride is so beautiful!"

"Groom, hug the bride!"

Amidst the teasing of the relatives, Cao Weiguo picked up Song Yulan.

"Groom is hugging the bride!"

He carried Song Yulan all the way out of the door and gently placed her on the back seat of the bicycle.

The Song family sent over wedding quilts, thermos bottles, washbasins, and spittoons.

Cao Weiguo said with excitement: "Wife, hold on tight; we're going home!"

"Hmm."

Song Yulan hummed happily and hugged Cao Weiguo's waist tightly.

When they came, it was a group of people; when they went back, it became a large team.

Not only were there those picking up the bride, but also those sending the bride off.

The team picking up the bride rode their bicycles home first, and the courtyard immediately became lively.

Master Chen Baoshu's family, Deputy Factory Director Li, and a group of directors and deputy directors all arrived at the Sihe Academy.

Cao Weiguo led Song Yulan to Chen Baoshu: "Master, this is my wife, Song Yulan. Yulan, greet Master."

Song Yulan greeted Chen Baoshu appropriately: "Hello, Master."

Chen Baoshu said with satisfaction: "Good, Weiguo. Yulan, you two must live a good life in the future and have a big, fat boy."

Song Yulan's face turned red, and Cao Weiguo grinned and said: "Guarantee to complete the task."

After meeting Master Chen Baoshu, Cao Weiguo and Song Yulan distributed wedding candies together.
