Chapter 630: 630 Uh, Got Slapped in the Face Again (Extra Chapter)

His expression didn’t show any significant change, but Gu Ren, who came from the same belly as him, could naturally detect that subtle difference in treatment.

It was evident that he was much more affectionate towards his fiancée than towards his own sister.

Well, that makes sense, the fiancée is someone to walk hand in hand with for a lifetime, while a sister is a relative who marries away... whom to hold close and whom to keep at a distance... it was crystal clear.

But she didn’t mind, as long as Yingzhou was happy.

The three of them walked out of the house.

A cool breeze brushed past, leaving a slight chill on their skin.

Gu Ren called out to Su Zheng, who had been running wild all day and still wasn’t tired, "Zhengzheng, stop playing, it’s time to go back."

Su Zheng lifted his sooty face, full of reluctance.

"Can we not go back?"

He clung to Lin Zhicheng’s hand, his expression one of deep reluctance.

A helpless expression appeared on Gu Ren’s gentle face.

Su Qi said, "No, we can’t."

With that, he picked up his son and forcefully washed his hands and face.

"Ow!! So cold, so cold."

Lin Zhicheng and the other three little guys watched and giggled.

The sound of someone crying out from the cold was just too funny!

Hearing the laughter, Su Zheng paused for a moment, then stopped howling and joined in with a he-he-he of his own laughter.

Li Xiuli had organized quite a few things, big and small, and presented them to Gu Ren.

"Renren, this is some food, there are steamed buns, buns, meat, and so forth... Eat it if you get hungry tonight."

These were prepared in advance by her out of concern that her new son-in-law and the others might get hungry at night.

There was cooked food as well as raw vegetables and meat.

Gu Ren was surprised, "Thank you, Auntie."

"Why thank you." Li Xiuli laughed, "You all worked hard today..."

She was afraid that Renren and the others wouldn’t feel comfortable staying at her modest home.

Gu Ren quickly shook her head, "What have we done to tire ourselves out? On the contrary, you and my uncle... have arranged everything so well; we’re actually a bit embarrassed."

Thinking that only she and Aqi had come from the Gu Family, she glanced at Lin Tang with an apologetic look.

"My parents couldn’t come, it’s really..."

Putting oneself in another’s shoes, if this were to happen to her, she certainly wouldn’t be happy.

Before Gu Ren could finish her words, Li Xiuli took her hand and patted it gently.

"It’s alright, we all understand. It’s unavoidable when you’re busy with work."

"Besides, we’re all family now, no need to talk as if we’re strangers."

The fact that her in-laws couldn’t come had been mentioned by Tangtang long ago, so they were prepared and not surprised.

However, they were genuinely pleased with the way Gu Ren spoke so thoughtfully.

This showed that their own Tangtang was held in high regard!

Gu Ren had a good impression of the Lin Family. She smiled slightly, her scholarly demeanor apparent.

"Alright."

Her gaze was gentle, no hint of estrangement to be seen.

Li Xiuli saw that the usually lively Su Zheng was starting to doze off, her eyes crinkling with a smile.

"Zhengzheng is sleepy."

"Well, I won’t hold you up any longer; you should go back while it’s still light."

The elderly do love to natter on, once they start talking, it’s hard to stop.

Gu Yingzhou nodded and led everyone away.

It was a good thing the Machinery Factory’s vehicle was large; there would not have been enough room otherwise.

In the back row, Xia Yunxiu nudged Gu Yingzhou’s shoulder and made faces, saying, "Dude...!"

Gu Yingzhou frowned, "Speak plainly."

Xia Yunxiu patted the camera, looking quite pleased with himself, "This, when it’s developed, you’ll definitely be satisfied."

He had taken quite a few photos that day and was very pleased with himself.

Sigh, who told him to be reliable!

Gu Yingzhou’s eyes briefly softened as they swept over the camera and the videography equipment, saying, "Thank you."

Xia Yunxiu rarely saw him like this and leaned back.

"No need for thanks, if you’re satisfied, just give me a red envelope, that’ll do."

Nothing beats a solid red envelope.

"You won’t be shortchanged, everyone who helped out today will get one," Gu Yingzhou said indifferently.

Jiu Wei, who was driving, brightened up.

He almost laughed out loud.

Today was worth it.

The boss’s red envelope was surely going to be generous, and he was going to be able to add to his nest egg.

He wished there would be such good fortune every day.

Then he thought about it and felt something was off.

Well, the boss couldn’t get married every day...

With that thought, Jiu Wei caught a glimpse of Gu Yingzhou’s cold face in the rearview mirror, and his heart sank, unable to muster any more excitement.

He didn’t dare.

The car headed towards the county, and Lin Tang was thinking of going home when Lin Lu stopped her.

"Tangtang, wait a minute."

Lin Tang paused, "What’s up?"

Lin Lu gestured for her to follow and led the way to a house not far from the Lin Family’s, which seemed uninhabited.

Lin Tang walked over, curious.

"Dad, what are we doing here?"

Lin Lu didn’t answer; instead, he pulled out the key he had been keeping and unlocked the door.

The contents inside were revealed.

It was apparent that there was a brand new set of furniture: tables, cabinets, beds... everything was there.

Lin Tang boldly guessed, "Dad, this isn’t furniture you’ve prepared for me, is it?"

Though she posed it as a question, she seemed somewhat certain.

Besides family, who else would prepare furniture for her so meticulously?

Lin Lu shook his head.

The others in the Lin Family were smiling.

"Huh? It’s not?" Lin Tang’s expression stiffened slightly.

...Oops, wrong guess.

At times like this, as long as I’m not embarrassed, everybody else is.

She quickly adjusted her expression to one of polite smiling as if it took only a moment.

"Then where did this furniture come from, and why is it here?!"

Her change of face was seamless.

Seeing Lin Lu silent for too long, Li Xiuli gave him a slap and said with irritation, "Who did you learn this suspenseful act from? Tangtang is getting anxious."

When she saw the furniture, she suddenly remembered her apprentice Lin Lu and snapped back to reality.

Considering it was a celebratory day, he didn’t want to dampen the mood, so he suppressed his emotions for the time being.

Looking at Lin Tang, he said solemnly:

"...This set of furniture was prepared by the brigade for you."

"When you donated the threshing machines to the brigade, the villagers wanted to thank you and secretly made you this set of furniture. After it was completed, it has been stored here to avoid disturbing you, so we didn’t tell you."

"Now that you are engaged, there’s no need to keep it a secret from you."

Lin Tang was stunned.

The villagers made it for her?!

"This..." Lin Tang was at a loss for words.

When she donated the threshing machine, she wasn’t without self-interest.

She was thinking that with the threshers, the efficiency of farm work would improve a bit, and her family members could have an easier time.

These pieces of furniture... she...

Zhou Mei approached Lin Tang, looking at her and saying, "This is what you deserve. Two threshing machines, if sold, who knows how many sets of furniture they could have made. Don’t be silly."

Lin Tang: "..."

After a moment of silence, Lin Tang nodded, "I know."

She didn’t intend to refuse, after all.

The villagers hadn’t expressed any goodwill, she wouldn’t push; but if the villagers were thoughtful, she wouldn’t decline either.

Still, to be frank, the tangible warmth from the uncles and aunties of the village made Lin Tang’s heart burn.

These lovely people were worth it!

Li Xiuli stroked Lin Tang’s hair, her laugh lines full of tender affection.

"Don’t overthink it! Today’s engagement party was on such a grand scale, partly to repay the villagers’ kindness."

Without claiming it was the entire reason, there was at least a small part that was true.
