Chapter 44: What kind of immortal man did Su Liyan marry?!

~7 min read 1,367 words

All along the way we walked and stopped, sightseeing, and smelled the fresh cow dung.

Around nine in the morning, the two of them returned to Qiu Qiu Village.

At that moment, the Su clan's courtyard was decked with lanterns and colorful banners; the women of the village were all sitting on little stools in the Su clan's small courtyard, with many sheets of red paper placed on the small tables before them.

Everyone was holding small scissors, helping to cut window paper-cuts and the 'double happiness' character.

Everyone was especially willing to help, after all, by helping they could get to eat nougat candy~

It's made from milk, with peanut kernels, walnut kernels, and such inside.

While eating, they sighed in their hearts, the Su clan's son-in-law is really lavish.

This wedding candy is nothing like anyone else's.

At that moment, someone outside shouted:

「Auntie, your son-in-law and Liyan have come back. 」

When the people in the courtyard looked up, they saw Lu Yuan and Su Liyan already coming in carrying big and small packages.

As soon as he entered the door, Lu Yuan grinned and said:

「Mom. 」

And the overjoyed Su mother immediately dropped the small scissors in her hand, hurriedly stood up, and said with a smile she couldn't contain:

「Eh~~ You're back so early, I thought you wouldn't return until after noon. 」

Lu Yuan carried the things to Su mother's front, put them aside, and said with a smile:

「We got up early today~」

Su mother looked at the big bundle Lu Yuan had set down, a bit dazed, this… this… how did he bring back another pile of stuff?

At that moment, Su Liyan stood at the doorway, looking dazedly at the courtyard.

Two live pigs, one live sheep, and the corners of the wall were piled with various vegetables.

You see, every farming household has a cellar, precisely to store vegetables for winter so they won't freeze and spoil.

If the vegetables aren't put in the cellar, there's only one possibility: the cellar is full.

Su Liyan knew her family's cellar; it could hold ten cabbages, and having that much already counted as prosperity for her family this year.

Seemingly having thought of something, Su Liyan didn't first go greet her mother, but went straight to the cellar.

She lifted the cellar lid and looked down to see piles of various grains and flour, plus jar after jar of that very expensive wine her husband had brought on his first visit.

Su Liyan is no fool; of course she knows this must have been bought by her husband, who had it delivered in advance.

Su Liyan now feels both heartache and happiness.

No woman doesn't want her wedding to be decent, but Su Liyan truly feels the pinch of money.

At the same time, Su Liyan also knows this is because her husband values her in his heart; otherwise he wouldn't have bought so much.

Deeply moved, Su Liyan silently replaced the lid, picked up the things, and went to stand beside her husband.

At this moment, Su mother looked at these pieces of clothing and boots that looked expensive and warm, her face full of joy, yet her voice sounded a bit complaining as she said:

「Oh dear, what's the point of spending so much money? We're not lacking anything, Yuan'er, you really are... 」

Everyone in the courtyard could see that Su mother was just talking; after all, when she said that she was practically about to laugh out loud.

Beside her, Su Liyan also put down the things, took out a scarf from a bundle, and handed it over with a smile, saying:

「Mom, this is also something Yuan ge bought for you, made of raccoon dog fur, it's really expensive. 」

The surrounding women felt a wave of envy; the Su clan's son-in-law is truly amazing!!

Lu Yuan, however, didn't pick up on Su mother's remark, but instead looked around and said:

「Where are my father and the others? 」

Su mother, her face full of delight, eyes shining as she stroked the large scarf, came to her senses and hurriedly said:

「They went to tally the number of participants for the day-after-tomorrow's banquet, and then they need to go borrow tables, as well as plates, bowls, and chopsticks from each household. 」

Lu Yuan nodded; his plan for the banquet is to hold it on the third day.

Have a meal at noon, another in the evening, and sleep at the Su household on the third night; then get up early the next day and return to Huangcheng.

At this moment, Su mother also thought of something and hurriedly said:

「Oh dear, son-in-law, you got up so early this morning, you surely haven't eaten yet; mother and Liyan will first make you a meal, you eat first, they might not be back for a while. 」

Lu Yuan repeatedly waved his hands and said with a smile:

「No, when I and Liyan came back, we bought a few fried dough stick, ate them on the road, I'm not hungry; at noon I'll wait for my father and Chang Liang to return and eat together. 」

Saying that, Lu Yuan looked at the red paper on the small table and smiled, saying:

「I can also cut this red paper. 」

Having said that, Lu Yuan took a small stool from beside him, eagerly picked up a sheet of red paper, and began folding it in half.

Meanwhile, the women beside him, hearing Lu Yuan's words, couldn't help but click their tongues and swallow their saliva.

Fried dough stick?

That thing, everyone has only heard of but never eaten.

It's said to be made from white flour, but it's tastier than white flour and more expensive.

And after Su Liyan had helped her mother bring the things into the house, she also took a small stool and sat beside her husband.

Su Liyan can also cut window paper-cuts, and she's quite good at it.

However, Su Liyan's mind wasn't really here; she kept turning her head from time to time to look at the things in the courtyard, seemingly calculating how much money they would cost.

The happiness is genuine, the joy is real.

But the heartache is also real.

After Lu Yuan cut one out, he immediately prepared to hand it to Su Liyan beside him for a look.

However, after calling twice, Su Liyan finally came to her senses, quickly turned her head toward Lu Yuan and said somewhat astonished:

"Eh? Brother?"

Seeing his wife like this, Lu Yuan also knows, his wife is starting to feel sorry for money again.

Lu Yuan placed the window flower in his hand down, and couldn't help but smile.

"Again feeling sorry for money?"

Su Liyan was startled, then quickly said:

"No~"

In front of outsiders, Su Liyan cannot lose face for her husband.

Seeing Su Liyan's cute little appearance, Lu Yuan couldn't help but reach out and pinch her stunningly beautiful mature lady face, saying:

"Don't feel sorry for money, you know brother has money."

This is your first wedding, and also brother's first wedding.

This is the only wedding of your life, and also brother's only wedding of his life.

Life only has this one chance; don't leave any regrets, so that when we two are old and look back on these days, we can still smile happily, right?

"Listen to brother, we aren't short on this bit of money~"

Su Liyan stared at her husband with a face full of astonishment.

Originally, her husband suddenly pinched her cheek in front of so many people, making Su Liyan very shy.

But after hearing her husband's words, Su Liyan forgot about that.

At this moment, the astonished Su Liyan's beautiful eyes suddenly began to redden, she pursed her alluring red lips.

The next second, Su Liyan flung herself into Lu Yuan's embrace, her beautiful face burying into his chest, speaking with a sobbing tone:

"Brother~~ I want to be with you for a lifetime~~"

All the surrounding women were also dazed by Lu Yuan's words.

After they came to their senses……

My goodness.

What kind of immortal man did Su Liyan marry……
