Chapter 117: Chapter 117

Even though they didn’t say they’d sever ties with them, cutting ties with the two sons is the most critical. Without their daughter’s support, the two sons’ future is really not worth mentioning.

If they knew it would be , they shouldn’t have plotted against their son-in-law yesterday.

If they let the wedding go smoothly today, how could the son-in-law not help his brothers-in-law in the future?

Thinking of this, Grandpa Niu shouted angrily at his two sons, then called out to the relatives and friends:

"Everyone, let’s go! The bride has left! How can the sending-off party fall behind? Quick, quick, follow along!"

With those words, everyone reacted and rushed outside, with many children laughing and chattering along, making it seem like a real event!

Bai Ruxue had long joined the welcoming party with her siblings.

When Niu Yingying ran out, Wang Yongsheng didn’t bother with anything else and led the welcoming party to follow, so now, the welcoming party with the newly wedded couple was at the front, and the sending-off party was desperately chasing from the back.

There’s a tradition that a father can’t send off his daughter when she gets married, so Grandpa Niu stayed home alone, but now all three sons hadn’t left yet.

"Hurry and go! Your sister must have been overwhelmed and spoke nonsense before! Apologize properly and it’ll all be over! Hurry up and go!" Grandpa Niu yelled at his two sons.

"Alright! I’m going right now! Dad, you said it! Sis won’t really cut ties with us!" Niu Zhengming quickly ran outside, demanding assurance from his dad.

"Dad, didn’t I say this wouldn’t work? You insisted on doing it this way! Look! Now what’s it come to?" Niu Zhenggang said, then ran outside.

"Dad... you all?" Niu Zhengde walked out from the house, dumbfounded.

"Hurry up and go! Why are you just standing there? Your sister is about to reach her in-laws! And you’re still here! Run faster!" Grandpa Niu shouted.

Niu Zhengde, muddle-headed and without asking anything, ran outside.

By the time the three brothers arrived, the wedding ceremony was almost over.

Niu Zhengming and Niu Zhenggang, knowing they were in the wrong, didn’t dare speak and stood quietly aside watching.

Niu Zhengde, however, was invited to sit at the bride’s tea table.

Once the heaven and earth vows were done, the parents were saluted, and the bride was ready to be taken to the bridal bed to sit. Here, there was no vow exchange between the couple.

The bride sat on the bed all along, accompanied by her sisters-in-law and younger sisters.

Niu Zhengming and his brother wanted to go in but were blocked out by Ma Xiaohua.

She couldn’t care less here, with her in-laws at home, she couldn’t control them, but here, if these two caused a fuss she feared they wouldn’t even get to eat the feast, so she quickly stopped them from stepping into the east room.

"I’m warning you two! No more fussing around, Yingying is already upset! Be careful or she’ll really cut ties with you!" Ma Xiaohua warned.

"Sister-in-law, we’re not causing any more fuss! We just want to go in and apologize to our sister!" Niu Zhenggang said as he tried to go inside.

"What’s wrong with apologizing later? Does it have to be today? Hurry up and leave! If you don’t want to eat, go home now! Apologize later!" Ma Xiaohua struggled to push the two out.

Soon, the food was served, and everyone looked amazed. Such meaty, oily dishes weren’t even eaten twice during the New Year; the Wang Family was truly lavish!

Besides meat, there was alcohol too, and the men who came were all drinking, cheerfully chatting and laughing.

"Mom, I have some things to do, I’ll head home first, you all come back after the banquet ends!" Bai Ruxue went to the kitchen where Wang Cuihua was busy adding food.

"Xiao Xue, what’s wrong?" Wang Cuihua asked worriedly.

"Nothing major, just a bit of a stomachache! I’ll head home, drink some hot water, and I’ll be fine! Maybe I caught a chill! I’ll head back now!" Bai Ruxue quickly whispered and turned to leave.

She heard knocking in her mind; Zhang Yuan had entered the space, she had to quickly find a chance to go in.

Bai Ruxue left the village, found a secluded spot, and stopped. After looking around, she saw that a dirt slope blocked the view, making it hard for others to spot her if they passed by, so she quickly entered the space.

"Xiao Xue, why are you only coming in now? Is someone around?" Zhang Yuan felt like he had been waiting for ages. As soon as he got off the train, he hurried to find a place to enter the space and let her know he was safe, mainly because he missed her after just a few days apart.

"Today, my uncle is getting married, do you think anyone’s around? I barely found an excuse to come out!" Bai Ruxue said, looking at Zhang Yuan.

In just about five or six days, Zhang Yuan had a slightly scruffy look. "Zhang Yuan, you’re in Capital City now, aren’t you?" Fresh chapters posted on ɴovelfire.net

"Yes! I just got off the train, so I wanted to come in and tell you I’m alright!" Zhang Yuan stared at Bai Ruxue, unwilling to blink.

"You haven’t gone home yet, so I’ll get you a razor, and you can clean up here!" Bai Ruxue said, turning to find a razor.

Zhang Yuan followed her closely, "Xiao Xue, have you missed me?"

Bai Ruxue noticed that Zhang Yuan completely lacked the shyness common to people of this era, casually flirting with her.

"Here you go! Clean yourself up! With that scruffy look, it’s hard to miss you!" Bai Ruxue took a razor from the counter and handed it to Zhang Yuan.

Zhang Yuan skillfully found the mirror and started shaving.

Bai Ruxue turned to collect two bottles of fine liquor, wiping away traces that shouldn’t appear in this era, and prepared snacks and dried fruits to pack them all.

Though she had endless questions in her mind, now wasn’t the time to ask, as Zhang Yuan hadn’t even gone home yet.

Even if he had gone home, she wouldn’t ask directly, she’d wait for him to give her the answer.

"Girl, I’m heading out now! Need to rush home!" Zhang Yuan quickly wanted to leave after organizing himself.

"Take this for Grandpa and Grandma!" Bai Ruxue said, handing the things she prepared to Zhang Yuan.

"Such a considerate girl! Don’t worry! I’ll handle things well and then be back soon!" Zhang Yuan said and left.

Because Bai Ruxue gave him the items, the space supermarket didn’t react at all, and no request was issued.

Bai Ruxue didn’t leave immediately; she ate a self-heating hotpot in the supermarket. What she didn’t take Zhang Yuan to was her own small rest room.

After renting the supermarket, she separated a room for herself, relying on it for showers and such these days.

The rest room was a suite, with an independent bathroom. Previously, she didn’t dare use the shower gel inside during baths, fearing that once outside, others would smell the scent on her and become suspicious, so she used soap from this era. But now she could use it.

She rushed to the rest room, took a satisfying shower, but didn’t delay too long, afraid of being exposed if she didn’t return home.

So she quickly dressed, and having just showered and feeling cold, she wore the scarf Zhang Yuan gave her.

Between Teams Three and Five is the earth, Four not being between Teams Three and Five, so Bai Ruxue walked a bit before entering the village.

At the village entrance, Bai Ruyu blocked her path.

"What are you doing?" Bai Ruxue asked angrily, facing Bai Ruyu who had stood silently in front of her, blocking her way.

At fourteen, she showed none of the typical traits of a girl, always sloppy. Sometimes Bai Ruxue even suspected if Bai Ruyu was a bit slow-witted.
