Chapter 320: Chapter 321 Uncle Nan Gets Married (Fourth Update)_1

While the villagers stood astonished, Nan Quanyou brought Lin Qiaoyun over, suddenly turning shy, "Well...I would like to introduce to everyone...this is...well, my...new wife."

"New wife?" The villagers had been eyeing Lin Qiaoyun for a while, but they didn’t dare ask as long as neither Nan Quanyou nor Nan Feng said anything. However, they had already guessed most of it. Hearing Nan Quanyou’s confirmation, they exploded in chatter, "Not only did your leg get better on your trip to the city, Quanyou, but you even got a new wife."

"Quanyou, your new wife is stunning. How did you win her over?"

"In the past, you dismissed the ladies we introduced to you. So, it turns out you considered the village ladies subpar and went looking for one in the city. And now, you even have a son."

"..." Amidst the prodding from everyone, Lin Qiaoyun’s face turned completely red. But having lived in the city for so long, she knew to maintain a composure. She pulled out some peanuts she had bought in the city and gave them out to everyone.

Only later did Lin Qiaoyun learn that these weren’t the only villagers. Following this wave, several other waves of villagers came to see Nan Quanyou’s leg and her. Nan Quanyou must have walked a hundred laps in the yard, and the peanuts Lin Qiaoyun had brought back were all gone. Fuguo became even happier as once they arrived in the village, local boys quickly befriended him. At first, he was shy, but soon let loose and ran around freely.

Nan Feng was tidying up the house and keeping an eye on the outside occasionally, chatting with the villagers. When Aunt Lan later arrived, she asked Nan Quanyou, "You finally brought a wife back. Shouldn’t you at least set up a few tables? Should I get the local fortune-teller to check the dates for you?"

Upon hearing this, Lin Qiaoyun’s face instantly filled with anticipation. However, seeing Nan Quanyou’s hesitation made her immediately disappointed.

She knew Nan Quanyou did not want to draw attention, worrying about the villagers making irresponsible remarks. And he had said before returning to Da Ping Village that paying respects to the ancestral hall would suffice, to which she agreed at the time.

However, Nan Feng quickly chimed in, "That’s necessary! Aunt Sima, you help me ask about the dates. Also, our house is quite old. I plan to build a new one in the backyard. Isn’t it the custom in our village to find an auspicious day for house-building? When you ask the fortune-teller about the dates, find out a suitable time to break ground as well. Once the house is ready, we’ll invite the local opera troupe to add to the festivities."

Building a house in the village isn’t expensive. You can directly chop wood from the mountain, and village labor is cheap. The rest of the materials can be transported from the brick kiln in Da Ji village. Building a single-story terrace would only cost about two to three hundred taels of silver.

For Nan Feng who’d just arrived, two to three hundred taels of silver would have been astronomical. But now, selling skincare products for just two or three months could earn it back. The silver that Nan Feng had saved up these past days could afford a beautiful house in the village.

...

The day when Lin Qiaoyun and Nan Quanyou got married, Nan Feng and Ye Ge also came back.

Ever since Ye Ge became a bodyguard, he only returned to the village once during the Mid-Autumn Festival to bring Uncle Zhou half a pig and various snacks and biscuits he had bought in the city. He hadn’t returned any other time.

As for Nan Quanyou, he was, after all, a low-key person. He firmly refused Nan Feng’s kind intention of inviting an opera troupe. He agreed only to set up a few tables in the courtyard and invite close friends and family, which, although modest, was more than enough for Lin Qiaoyun.
