Joe's Farming

Chapter 61 Dinner

The three of them went there in Yipinxuan's carriage. After dropping off the people, the carriage would return to the restaurant and pick them up after the banquet.

Gu Feng and Qiao Yu were both attending a wedding banquet for the first time, and they were both a little nervous. Gu Feng had never attended one before, so he didn't know what to do, but once he showed that face, no one would dare to talk to him. Qiao Yu didn't understand the interests of the ancients and lost her husband's face.

Fortunately, Xu Yuan had already arranged for the servants to sit at the same table with the shopkeeper. The seat was near the front and the main table, but they didn't need to interact with Xu's relatives.

Qiao Yu handed the gift box to the accountant and asked him to make sure the gift was delivered to the newlyweds.

The accountant smiled and replied, "Don't worry, the young master has personally instructed me."

Only then did Qiao Yu sit down with Gu Feng and the shopkeeper.

There were only tea, cakes and cold dishes on the table. The hot dishes would be served after the ceremony. The guests slowly took their seats. Qiao Yu looked around and saw that they were all wealthy people in the town, but he didn't know any of them.

Xu Yuan is the youngest son in the family. He has an older sister who married into a family in Qingzhou Prefecture and rarely returns to her parents' home. Mr. Xu and his wife are welcoming guests at the door at this moment, and Qiao Yu has just greeted them.

Not long after, festive sounds of suona, ban drum, flute and other musical instruments were heard from the door.

Qiao Yu kept staring at the auditorium. Why wasn't Xu Yuan there? Logically, the groom should have come out to pick up the bride.

Mr. Xu and his wife had already returned to the auditorium from the doorway and sat down. The bride, covered with a veil, was led into the courtyard by the matchmaker with a red silk scarf, stepped over the brazier, and slowly walked to the front of the auditorium.

"Why is the bride so strong?" a guest whispered.

"Look at her feet, they're so big!" a woman exclaimed.

"Hush, I heard he's a country boy, otherwise why would he be willing to marry me..."

The bride under the veil seemed to have heard the discussions and her feet involuntarily moved further into her wedding dress.

Qiao Yu looked at the bride and felt something was wrong. Gu Feng approached him and whispered, "Xu Ning."

Qiao Yu looked at her husband in surprise, and Gu Feng nodded in confirmation. He had worked with Xu Ning for so long and was familiar with his body shape.

Qiao Yu immediately thought of the day when Xiao Xing was bullied and met Xu Ning in the town. He thought that it was the day when Xu Mansion found the person with a good fate. In addition, Xu Ning mentioned the state of getting married the day before, so it turned out that he was the "bride" who was brought to the wedding.

Qiao Yu couldn't explain how she felt, because she had never seen this wedding from the perspective of a "bride". Then, Qiao Yu thought Xu Yuan was going to appear, but she saw Xu Yuan's personal servant carrying a rooster.

Some people were already laughing, but because the host was there, they could only cover their faces with their hands. Xu's parents also looked unhappy, and only the matchmaker sang all the words in a very festive voice.

Finally, the ceremony was over and the "bride" with the veil on her head followed the rooster to the new house.

Qiao Yu was worried that Xu Yuan's health had worsened and he couldn't even hold the wedding ceremony. He was also worried that Xu Ning could not stand the ridicule from the guests. However, he would have to slowly understand all this in the future.

As soon as the newlyweds left, Mr. Xu said a few words welcoming everyone to the ceremony, and then the wedding banquet officially began.

The first dishes served were ordinary chicken, duck, fish and meat. Every table had Yipinxuan's signature dishes, and there were also dishes specially developed by Yipinxuan's chef for the wedding banquet. All the dishes were named with good meanings, which showed that the host family attached great importance to this wedding banquet.

When Qiao Yu saw that the dishes were served, he wanted to eat quickly and go home. He knew that he would definitely not see Xu Yuan and Xu Ning today, and he just hoped that God would bless them both to be well.

"Hey, I don't recognize this young man! He's so handsome. Are you married?" A greasy middle-aged man standing diagonally opposite Qiao Yu looked at him with a smile.

Qiao Yu's mouth was still open, looking at the middle-aged man in surprise. Should I say that this man is blind? Isn't he afraid of being beaten when he can't see the big man next to him, Gu?

Gu Feng was thinking that this was someone else's wedding banquet and he couldn't hit anyone. Qiao Yu also held Gu Feng down with one hand, thinking about how to make her husband not angry.

Finally, the middle-aged man spoke again: "Oh, so you are married! Then you are so lucky to be with him! Ah~ I can't even buy you a set of good clothes. Look at this material, only country people wear it! Listen to me, kick him out and follow me. I will let you live a good life." He had already seen that this young man and the tall man next to him were a couple, but what was the relationship? People want to move up, and he has seen too many men who want to climb up. I just don't know why such a person appeared at this wedding banquet and was arranged to sit at the same table with him.

The lively table suddenly became quiet, and everyone looked at Qiao Yu and Gu Feng. Fortunately, the voice of the greasy middle-aged man was only heard by their table, and it did not attract more attention. Qiao Yu silently chewed and swallowed the food in his mouth, and pinched the back of Gu Feng's hand with his left hand, indicating that he should not be angry.

Qiao Yu raised her eyebrows and looked at the middle-aged man: "Where did you come from, you idiot!? You can't spit out ivory from a dog's mouth, right! You are a drooling old thief who doesn't know life and death. You are really a toad at the bottom of a well and have never seen the world. Can't you see that my love for Brother Gu is as strong as gold and our love is deep? You can donate your eyes if you are blind! You are wearing country clothes. What did the country people do to you? Did they eat your rice? I am a country person and I just like country people. Are you jealous? Your head is full of dirty things! I am as blind as you! I feel unlucky when I look at you!" After scolding, she glanced at her husband from the side. Good, Brother Gu was not angry and smiled at him gently. Thanks to Mrs. Li, she unlocked his curse words.

The whole table was shocked by Qiao Yu's abusive aura. The middle-aged man had never thought that he would be insulted like this in public by a lowly guy. He was so angry that he lost the fake smile on his face: "You...you...you are lucky that I like you! Don't be shameless!"

Qiao Yu became more and more courageous: "Come on! Who do you think you are? Do you need me to save your face? You think I didn't scold you harshly enough? If you say one more word, I will scold you so badly that your mother won't recognize you. "

One of the men chuckled in a rather unkind way.

The middle-aged man was completely enraged, his face flushed red. He pointed at Qiao Yu and said, "You...you..."

Qiao Yu thought: Fuck you, you... you... what?! Can you afford to pay for making my husband angry?

Just when Qiao Yu was thinking about how to make him shut up, the shopkeeper of Yipinxuan, who had finally returned from toasting, interrupted the two of them and said, "Master Cao, today is my young master's big day. You don't know that this is our young master's sworn brother. He is not just some random person. You can't joke with him." He had just seen something unusual at the table from a distance, and hurried back to help Qiao Yu after toasting. Although he didn't hear what Cao said clearly, everyone in the town knew that this man was a pervert. He must have offended Qiao Yu with his words, which was why he was scolded.

Mr. Cao took a deep breath and said with a bitter smile: "I'm really sorry, I can't help but make a joke when I see a beautiful woman." Then he looked at Qiao Yu hatefully before shutting up.

Qiao Yu didn't feel like eating anymore, so she took Gu Feng's hand, stood up and said goodbye to the shopkeeper: "Shopkeeper, we are full, so we will leave first. You guys continue, enjoy your meal."

Of course the shopkeeper knew that Qiao Yu was disgusted by Cao Yufan from Fumanlou. This frivolous old man only knew how to flirt with other girls. No one knew who arranged him to sit at this table.
