Chapter 1272: Chapter 1272: The Man Visits the Woman’s Home 3

The weather did not affect the progress of the wedding; the Wang Family’s close relatives could not excuse themselves and all had to attend.

Although everyone was quite averse to Wang Xinlai’s household, it was all behind the scenes. On the surface, the proper address and interactions were still maintained; it was just that hearts were no longer exchanged.

Wang Xinlai’s home had made decent preparations, with sunflower seeds, peanuts, and candies all displayed on the table.

Wang Lingzhi had specifically put on a new red shirt and pinned a wildflower to her temple, looking festive and joyous.

In contrast, the groom Mo Bai was a tall and thin-faced man, with delicate features and clear eyes, wearing a shirt that was white and pants that were black—only eighty percent new. It accentuated his slim figure, as if a gust of wind could carry him away.

However, Mo Bai’s face did not show much joy.

Wang Zhengguo shared the same surname and, as the head of Wanglou Brigade, he had to preside over this local peasant daughter’s wedding to the sent-down youth, which held a certain political significance as the state encouraged sent-down youths to take root in the countryside.

Miao Fengqin initially didn’t want to come, but Jin Cuihua dragged her along to watch the excitement.

"How did they end up together?" Miao Fengqin asked Jin Cuihua in a low voice.

The two women were hidden among several of the Wang Family’s close relatives who had come to enjoy the show. Jin Cuihua replied quietly, "Haven’t you heard? It’s better than an opera."

"What happened?" To be comparable to opera, the story must be quite extraordinary.

Miao Fengqin was very curious and couldn’t help but probe further.

Jin Cuihua spoke softly, "Our brigade doesn’t have a tradition of airing dirty laundry. The sent-down youths from other places naturally don’t know what Wang Lingzhi and her parents did. To integrate into the local collective, those sent-down youths who arrived one after another tried hard to form good relationships with us. That’s why Wang Lingzhi initially got on very well with another female sent-down youth, Bai Xiaolin."

Wang Lingzhi was shrewd; she started by helping Bai Xiaolin, teaching her hands-on how to do household chores and often helping her, and Bai Xiaolin wholeheartedly opened up to her, even giving her things she brought from Shanghai.

Bai Xiaolin was a sent-down youth from Shanghai who likely had the best family conditions among her peers.

Having been in Wanglou Brigade for only a few months, the Bai Family had already sent Bai Xiaolin several packages. Because Wang Zhengguo was known for his integrity, the items, after inspection, always reached Bai Xiaolin’s hands, and Wang Lingzhi often benefited from this as well.

Wang Lingzhi often visited Bai Xiaolin, and as they became more familiar, she began mixing with the other sent-down youths. Sometimes the youths would gather to cook together, and she would help out. The sent-down youths generally used the same toilet, which was unisex, and they went in batches. Who would have thought that one day, Wang Lingzhi had a sudden urgent need, rushed to the toilet, and just so happened to see Mo Bai’s buttocks!

"Buttocks..." Before she could finish with the word "cheeks," Miao Fengqin nearly choked on her saliva.

Jin Cuihua smirked, "And with that, the wedding was a natural consequence."

Miao Fengqin felt a wave of skepticism; why did it sound so off?

"It sounds off because it is." Jin Cuihua spoke softly, "A lot of the older villagers are thinking whether Wang Lingzhi had set her sights on Mo Bai from the start and deliberately followed him, pretending to have an urgent need to use the toilet."

Since it was the groom joining the bride’s household, Wang Zhengguo, following tradition, presented them with a certificate of merit at the end of the wedding.

The content of the certificate praised Mo Bai’s act of settling in the bride’s locality. Wang Xinlai and his wife, acting as if nothing had happened regarding the Bai Family from Guan Cheng, accepted the certificate with smiles, treasuring it as they placed it in a chest.
