Chapter 146 Wedding
Chapter 146 Wedding
Here, Chen Chengyu was still sharing the good news with Zhao Pannu. The two were walking and chatting in a secluded place in the town.
Zhao Pannu's family lives in the town.
Over there, the Chen family acted quickly and have already started preparing for the wedding!
After Chen Chengyu came back, they gathered together at Chen's house to discuss finding a matchmaker, formally proposing marriage, and setting a date to pick up the bride.
At this point, Chen Chengyu became shy!
"So it wasn't you who was anxious to marry her?" Chi Xiaotong teased her.
"It's different. Before, I was anxious because I wasn't sure. What's more, his family's situation before... I was afraid something might go wrong. Now that I've passed the exam and he's doing much better, I'm not so anxious anymore!"
"Then take it back soon! If you keep an eye on it, you won't be bullied!"
"Sister, do you know something?" Chen Chengyu was very sensitive and noticed that there was something else behind Chi Xiaotong's words.
"Nothing!" Chi Xiaotong denied.
"Sister!" Chen Chengyu was very serious.
"Well, I went there once before and saw him being scolded. You two are just engaged, and I can't interfere because of my status. I can only call him out under the pretext of business. I can help him once, but not twice!"
"Just being scolded?"
"Uh, yes." Chi Xiaotong felt a little guilty.
"Tell me the truth, was he beaten?" Chen Chengyu asked.
"You know why, right!" he said in a firm tone.
Chi Xiaotong's eyes wandered. She did ask, and Zhao Pannu also told her, but she promised not to tell Chen Chengyu.
"Sister, is it Pan Nu who won't let you say it?"
Chi Xiaotong nodded and tried to make amends: "I warned his mother! It's okay!"
"I want to know. I can't let him be wronged and I know nothing about it! I won't be impulsive. Sister, just tell me!" Chen Chengyu negotiated.
"That's enough! Stop shaking!" Chi Xiaotong felt dizzy from being shaken by Chen Chengyu.
"I'm telling you, you can't let it slip, or your husband will think I'm not trustworthy!"
"I will definitely not say anything and will not do anything!" Chen Chengyu promised.
"Last time, when I went there, I saw his mother beating him, and he was also standing there getting beaten! I stepped forward to stop them, but his mother told me to mind my own business!
His mother let me go only after I told him I wanted to discuss business with him.
I asked him, but he refused to tell me at first. I told him that he wanted to tell me, and he said that he didn't want to spend all the money he earned from selling candy to buy books for his mother. His mother said he was unfilial and needed to be taught a lesson!
The whole family depended on the little money he earned to survive. When life got better, his mother felt that she was good enough again and wanted to continue taking exams!
Really, your brain is not very good! Loving to study is a good thing, but you have to consider the actual situation!
I couldn't keep him forever, and when he went back, I didn't have to see him off. I don't know what happened to him later!
He repeatedly told me not to tell you, fearing that you would be distracted!"
"I have finished the exam now! He didn't tell me when I went there!" Chen Chengyu was depressed.
"Of course he won't tell you. Doesn't he know what his mother is like? He has no choice, he can't hide away! Is he telling you to get angry with his mother or to help him get justice?
He didn't say it because he didn't want to rely on you for everything! He is a strong-willed person and won't be willing to bow down to you!" Chi Xiaotong said.
"But, we're getting married! And he hasn't told me anything yet!"
"Just be content! Think about how your brother-in-law was when he first got married! Marry him and treat him well, everything will get better slowly!"
Chen Chengyu recalled how Tian Yu looked when she first married Chi Xiaotong, and felt that Zhao Pannu was already very good! At least, apart from his family, there was no need to worry about him being wronged. Moreover, Zhao Pannu was still willing to share her ideas.
Because of this, the wedding date was set very tight.
The Chen family started preparing since Chen Chengyu passed the exam, and they have gathered all the necessary things long ago. As for the Zhao family, they also prepared quickly, but no one knows what kind of dowry they prepared. Chen Chengyu and the others don't care.
The two families exchanged gifts and discussed the process. This series of processes was completed in one month.
This is already considered fast, and it is certainly different from Chi Xiaotong's time.
Chi Xiaotong was alone at the time, and the Tian family had no plans to let Tian Yu have a grand wedding. Both families were anxious, and the procedures were almost not followed, and there were even problems at the wedding!
In addition, at that time, the Tian family was equivalent to selling their son, and they didn't care about these etiquettes at all.
Now, no matter what, Zhao Pannu's mother is still a scholar, and she has to maintain her face no matter what.
Regardless of whether she was reluctant or not, the Chen family had to agree to the marriage according to the county's etiquette, and if she wanted to look respectable, the dowry and ceremony would have to be big.
The Chen family really didn't care about the dowry she gave, but Chen Chengyu inherited the Chen family's consistent style and wanted to give her husband the best.
The two families lived far from each other, so when they discussed things, it was Chen's mother and father who went to Zhao Pannu's house. Zhao Pannu's mother was so proud of herself that she almost forgot who she was!
For Zhao Pannu, Chen Chengyu endured it. For their daughter's marriage, the two elders of the Chen family endured it.
Chi Xiaotong doesn't want to endure this. If you can't control her, she will make your family restless in the future.
Because last time, Chi Xiaotong talked to her and even warned her, she still had some respect for Chi Xiaotong.
Chi Xiaotong played the villain and followed the Chen family every time. The two elders played the good cop and she played the bad cop. If there were any excessive requests, she would just fight back.
As a result, every time she went there, Zhao Pannu's parents were unhappy. Chi Xiaotong didn't care. After the marriage was completed, she would stay as far away as possible!
There were a lot of small twists and turns in the middle, but fortunately the final result was very good!
On the day Chen Chengyu went to pick up his bride, he rode a tall horse, and Chi Xiaotong followed behind him in the same festive red dress.
At Zhao's house, they successfully brought the person out. Chen Chengyu carried the person to the carriage, saying that it was inconvenient to walk because of the veil, so they did it to save time!
Everyone just smiled and didn't say anything.
There was banging and hammering along the way, and the wedding procession was extremely festive. People in the whole town were talking about it: The son of the Zhao family married a scholar, what a glorious marriage!
In the following years, no wedding in the town could compare to theirs!
He had been talked about for a long time before because of the matter of Zhao Pannu's brother's child. Chen Chengyu was angry and wanted to let everyone see that the person they talked about, who was so fierce and undisciplined, was now married home in a grand ceremony!
Chi Xiaotong was even more generous and directly sprinkled sweets, spreading them along the way. After accepting the sweets, no matter whether it was sincere or not, you had to say a few words of blessing!
Tuantuan and Zhao Pannu's daughter Zhao Qinglu were both dressed up beautifully and sat side by side in the front of the car as flower girls.
Chen Chengyu wanted everyone to see her and tell everyone that Zhao Qinglu would be a member of the Chen family and her daughter in the future! She was recognized by everyone in the Chen family.
Zhao Pannu didn't know about this. He was still wearing a veil, sitting in the carriage, listening to the excitement outside, with a happy face.
