Divorced woman with child travels through time

Behind the oxcarts carrying the aunties were the able-bodied men of Wangjiazhuang, carrying, holding, or holding various gifts, forming a long procession that stretched for dozens of miles.

The onlookers all praised her, saying that Madam Chen had made a good marriage.

Li Xianshu, holding her child's hand, silently watched from the crowd, not rushing forward to snatch the candy and coins. The child, however, had a large bag in his hand, which he had given to his younger brother when he saw him on the fifteenth. The first and second brothers had seen it but hadn't said anything. Only the ignorant child was still happy to have received such a large bag of candy.

In the distance, Li Baozhu, dressed in plain clothes and wearing a hat, blended into the crowd. Looking at Wang Erniu, tall and imposing, with a beaming smile, she gritted her teeth, the metallic taste of his teeth filling her mouth. Hatred surged within her. "Why can she have you? Why can you all live so well, while I'm stuck like this..."

Seeing Wang Erniu gently take Chen Wenfang's hand and help her into the carriage, Li Baozhu clenched her fists in hatred, her fingertips piercing her palms without her realizing it. "I will make you pay the price, I will..."

Watching the carriage drive away and the noise gradually fade into the distance, Li Baozhu walked home along the corner of the wall, feeling lost and dejected.

For some reason, while the men were almost fully recovered, Li Baozhu had not fully recovered. Her lower body was still occasionally itchy, and there were even unknown dark red sores on her body and face. The doctor said that it might have triggered a hidden illness and that she needed to take medicine for a longer period of time. Li Baozhu had never taken so much bitter medicine before, and she almost vomited up her bile. Now, she felt nauseous at the sight of medicine, but a belief supported her, and she still drank it all down each time.

Yuanlang had already been driven away by her. There was nothing she could do; no matter how much she liked him, he was tainted and she couldn't keep him. The daily itching on her body was a constant reminder that this man had betrayed her. However, out of consideration for their past relationship, Li Baozhu gave him some money and sent him away, managing to part ways amicably...

The wedding procession proceeded with music and fanfare. The summer morning air was pleasantly cool, not too hot. Chen Wenfang, peering through the carriage curtain at the imposing figure ahead, was lost in thought, imagining her future happiness.

Before long, the carriage finally arrived at Wangjiazhuang. As soon as they reached Aunt Liu's house, the firecrackers began to be lit. Red paper flowers and colorful ribbons were wrapped around the branches of trees on both sides of the road. Shi Tou, along with a group of children, lit the firecrackers with a "bang!" Instantly, a series of crisp explosions rang out, mixed with the children's cheers!

"Haha, run!"

"Wait for me, brother!"

"Oh no, it's blown up! It's blown up!"

"Run!"

"The bride is here! The bride is here!"

Chen Wenfang hadn't been back to Wangjiazhuang for many days and was surprised to find that the roadside had been decorated so beautifully. Now she was already looking forward to seeing her new house. No wonder Aunt Liu had said those days that the bride couldn't see the groom for the time being and had asked her about their local wedding customs. Chen Wenfang thought of the videos of modern people getting married that she had seen in her past life and casually mentioned them. Unexpectedly, Wang Erniu and the others actually did exactly as she said...

Chen Wenfang was both touched and dazed. In her past life, she had simply held a simple banquet and gotten married. If it weren't for this group of ancient people around, she would have doubted that she was still in her previous life...

A large group of children ran ahead of the carriage, first heading to Wang Erniu's door to deliver a message. Hearing the children's calls, Zhuan Tou quickly joined forces with the Wang Xiaoming brothers to light firecrackers, and the sound of firecrackers, even more intense than along the way, instantly resounded throughout the mountains and fields.

"This second brother really went all out!" Hu Chengxin, the fourth of the four families that Wang Erniu's brothers came to seek refuge with, was lean and wiry, and couldn't help but sigh.

"It seems that Second Brother really likes our sister-in-law." Nie Chuming was thirty-five or thirty-six years old, but like Xiong Dajia, he called Wang Erniu Second Brother.

"We must treat Madam Chen with more respect from now on," Lü Shunyi pleaded with Li Huan. "She must be quite capable to be the head of the household!"

Everyone nodded and said, "That's how it should be."

"These tree branches and firecrackers look quite nice when decorated. We can do the same for our children's weddings in the future," Nie Chuming suggested. Everyone nodded in agreement, agreeing that it was indeed a good idea and very lively.

Wang Erniu was finally almost at the door when a group of little kids, along with Wang Fugui and a bunch of grown men, stood smiling and blocking the way.

Wang Fugui, acting as the master of ceremonies, shouted loudly, "Duke Zhou first set up a gate to block the way: first, to block the noble son; second, to block the grandson; third, to block the newlyweds and their dowry; and fourth, to block the couple's long life."

Uncle Liu stepped forward with a smile, "Come on, come on, old friends, please make an exception!" He handed out red envelopes one by one, and everyone accepted them without hesitation. After taking the red envelopes, they all made way, and he also threw several handfuls of candy at the children, who finally made way as well.

Wang Erniu helped Chen Wenfang down from the carriage. Chen Wenfang tried to cover her face and steadily got off the carriage. She then stepped over the brazier and entered the main house. Chen Wenfang peeked around and saw that the whole house was almost completely decorated and looked very lively.

Uncle Liu and Aunt Liu took the seats of honor, and under the direction of Wang Fugui, the two bowed to each other. Wang Erniu then led Chen Wenfang into the inner room, followed by a group of onlookers.

Wang Erniu helped Chen Wenfang sit up on the bed, then released his sweaty hand and stood there grinning foolishly. Wang Hanyang urged from the side, "Second Brother, what are you grinning about? Tell the bride to put down the fan!"

The others chimed in, "Bride, hurry up and take her down!"

Aunt Liu laughed and said, "The groom has to say it first."

Wang Erniu chuckled and said, "Wife, just put it down."

Upon hearing this, Chen Wenfang slowly put down her fan, and everyone fell silent. Wang Erniu stared blankly at her, and Aunt Liu gave her a wink. Dazhuang Zhuantou then began to shoo people away.

"The bride's done reading, let's give her some space to talk, I'm leaving now..."

"Going out for drinks..."

Wang Erniu's brothers, sensing the situation, also led him out the door...

Chen Wenfang looked at Wang Erniu, who was standing there dumbfounded, and chuckled, "What are you looking at? You look silly."

Chen Wenfang pulled him down to sit and wiped his sweat with a handkerchief. "You must be exhausted today too."

Wang Erniu let her wipe his face, his eyes never leaving her, and said with a smile, "I'm not tired, I'd be willing to be even more tired. My wife, you look so beautiful today."

Chen Wenfang laughed and said, "How could it not be beautiful? I got up before dawn and spent an hour getting my face done."

Wang Erniu smiled and gently squeezed her hand, "Thank you for your hard work, my wife."

Chen Wenfang smiled and said, "I'm not tired at all, and I'm willing to marry you."

Wang Erniu saw the undercurrent in her eyes, suppressed his restless heart, and gently embraced her, saying, "Be good, wait for me to come back..."

Chen Wenfang nodded shyly...
