Chapter 267 He is the cannon fodder control group (23)
Brothers don't have to wear a veil when they get married, and there are even fewer rules in the countryside, so the first thing Gu Yao saw when he opened the door was Si Cen's appearance.
There was a flash of surprise in his eyes, and he was stunned for a moment.
Until someone behind him laughed and joked, "The groom is staring at his new husband. You know your new husband is good-looking, so stop standing there and take him home quickly. You can look at him as much as you want to at night, hahahaha..."
There were some good-natured laughter all around.
Gu Yao quickly turned around and met the teasing look in the young man's eyes when he came to greet him. He raised his hand, put his fist to his lips and coughed lightly twice, then stepped into the house amid the urging.
In fact, a new bride needs her relatives to see her off, but everyone knows Man Ge'er's current situation, so no one says much about him marrying out of Aunt Zhao's house.
Even when the groom personally went into the room and carried Man Ge'er out, everyone was only surprised and astonished for a moment, and then they quickly returned to normal and smiled and gave their blessings.
Naturally, the person whom Gu Yao invited to accompany him to pick up the bride could not have a bad relationship with him and of course he wished the best for him.
The lively wedding procession went all the way to Gu Yao’s thatched cottage.
Even though he saw Gu Yao decorate the house with his own eyes yesterday, he didn't know if it was because his mood was different, but now looking at this house that was simple but full of festive atmosphere and carefully decorated, Si Cen felt a different kind of warmth.
Four or five sets of tables and benches had been placed on the open space in front of the house. These were naturally borrowed from other families in the village by Gu Dazhui and Gu Dashan, father and son, who came together early in the morning to help Gu Yao.
This is how weddings are held in the village. Tables, chairs, benches, and even pots and pans are all borrowed from each family. Even the people who help are invited by each family. You help me this time and I will help you next time. This is how the friendship between neighbors grows stronger and stronger through the interactions between them.
However, Gu Yao had few good relationships with the families in the village, so many things about this marriage were arranged for him by Aunt Zhao and her family.
To be honest, Aunt Zhao and her family truly treat Gu Yao as their own son.
Holding her husband in her arms and crossing the brazier, Gu Yao put Si Cen down and held his hand, and the two of them worshipped heaven and earth in the only half of the room that could be called a main room.
There is no tablet in the hall. Instead, there is the tablet of the one-eyed hunter who adopted Gu Yao, as well as the tablets of Si Cen's parents.
The two people were wearing bright red wedding dresses. Apart from the limp when they walked, one was tall, graceful, steady and handsome, while the other was delicate, likable and full of blessings. The picture of them standing side by side was so pleasing to the eyes.
Si Qing, who was hiding not far away and peeking, almost bit his sleeve when he came over quietly.
His eyes were blazing with jealousy.
He had never been treated like this in his previous life. The bright red wedding dress was so exquisite and luxurious that it looked like it was made of silk!
The careful and caring movements of Gu Yao when he held Man Ge'er in his arms, and the gentle expression when he lowered his eyes to look at him, were the first time Si Qing had seen them in this and previous life.
It was also at this time that Si Qing discovered that Gu Yao was so handsome.
Compared to the one in his memory, the hunter who often didn't like to shave, wore shabby clothes, wandered around in the mountains and forests all day long, always covered in mud and blood, was extremely rough, had scars at the corners of his eyes, looked ferocious, and had lame legs... In short, he was an extremely poor hunter.
This handsome man with tender eyes made Si Qing feel unfamiliar. At the same time, he was filled with great jealousy towards Man Ge'er and an inexplicable resentment.
Perhaps he had already felt unwilling when he met them in the city before, but at that time he was only unwilling that the poor hunter was willing to spend so much money to buy things for Si Cen, but had never bought him even a new piece of clothing in his previous life.
And now the unwillingness is more about why, it was Man Ge'er, the sloppy and ruthless poor hunter, who turned out to be like this now, why did he look at others with such loving eyes?
Si Qing watched the two of them walk into the house hand in hand and listened to the voices inside shouting "Pray to Heaven and Earth". Jealousy gnawed at his heart and made him want to rush in regardless and ruin the wedding.
until……
"Qing'er, what are you doing here? You..."
Si Qing hurriedly adjusted his expression, turned to look at Gu Hefeng, and smiled bitterly, "I know that Man Ge'er resented our family and didn't even invite us to his wedding, but he is my brother after all. I couldn't bear the thought of him getting married without any family members. I was just afraid that he would be bullied, so I secretly came to see him. I was relieved to see that he was fine."
Gu Hefeng sighed and looked at him with a bit of heartache, "Your parents... Hey, what do the elders do have to do with you, a little boy? You are so kind, but he and his husband may not appreciate your kindness. You'd better go back, lest that unreasonable hunter finds out and comes to bully you again."
Si Qing showed an expression that looked like she was about to cry, "Brother Hefeng, you are the only one who understands me the best. As long as you don't misunderstand me, everything will be worth it."
The two of them were like a pair of protagonists in a play of extraordinary love, holding hands and looking at each other with tears in their eyes, acting out a corny scene.
Si Cen Ke didn't know and had no interest in knowing.
After the wedding ceremony, he was sent into the room, and Gu Yao had to come out to entertain the guests.
According to custom, the newlyweds can ask their good friends to come in and keep them company, or have their family members and younger generations come over to talk to them.
But he didn't.
I thought I was going to sit there doing nothing, but before long I heard someone outside say, "Brother Man, I'm coming in."
Then Brother Jin came into the house holding his three-year-old son.
Si Cen looked at him, blinking. Before he could say anything, he smiled first, "Gu the Hunter was worried that you would be lonely, so he asked my mother-in-law yesterday to ask me to come and accompany you today. I brought Lin'er with me, so don't mind the noise."
Si Cen looked at the chubby little guy who was hiding in Jin Ge'er's arms, looking at him curiously with his big eyes, and also smiled.
"How could I complain about the noise? Lin'er is so well behaved, come and sit down."
Brother Jin came over and sat next to Si Cen.
"Don't hold him all the time. Don't your hands feel sore? Put him on the kang and play with him." Si Cen said as he stuffed a piece of candy into the child's pocket. This was the one that Gu Yao gave him before he went out.
Gu Yulin did not immediately grab the candy, but looked at his father. He did not reach out to take it until he saw Jin nodded at him, and said in a baby voice, "Thank you, pretty brother~"
From this one thing alone, we can see that Gu Yulin is different from other children in the village. It can be seen that it was Brother Jin who taught him personally and taught him very well.
Jin Ge'er originally didn't want to put his son on the kang, fearing that the child would be ignorant and dirty Si Cen and the others' wedding quilts.
But Si Cen saw that the child was clean and not a naughty kid, so he said he didn't mind. He also said that in some places there is a custom of letting children roll around on the newlyweds' bed, which is a good omen. So Jin Ge'er was no longer polite and took off the kid's shoes and put them on the kang.
As expected, he ate the candy and played by himself.
Si Cen chatted casually with Jin Ge'er, and later they talked about toothbrushes, tooth powder, and ideas for doing business... They got along very well, and Si Cen liked Jin Ge'er's temperament a little.
Brother Jin is a special guy who looks gentle and graceful, but actually has his own opinions and ideas.
It was not until the end that Si Cen suddenly realized that he had made his first friend since coming to this world.
