Chapter 960: Chapter 960 Enviable
February was still chilly, and Yiting’s wedding outfit was based on the design Luo Qiao had drawn for her. Made-to-order by a tailor, the stand-collar Xiuhua Costume looked stunning when worn.
At ten o’clock sharp, the wedding procession arrived with three jeeps and a double-cab truck.
Following all the ceremonial procedures, and just before leaving the house, Lu Yixuan, the eldest brother, said to Kong Xiangrui, his brother-in-law, "Today, we are entrusting our sister to you, take good care of her.
If she does anything wrong, let us know, and we will properly talk to her. But if my sister is ever wronged in the future, we will employ our means to ensure justice is served on her behalf."
Before everyone, Kong Xiangrui quickly professed his stance, "Please rest assured, Big Brother, Sister-in-law, Second Brother, and Second Sister-in-law, I will protect Yiting well and not let her suffer the slightest grievance. If I fail, you are free to deal with me as you see fit."
Wang Xiaoxin promptly stepped forward to smooth things over, "Alright, we trust you. It’s almost time, go carry Yiting out to pay respects to the elders."
The sisters-in-law watched as their younger sister-in-law was carried outside, knelt on the red cloth that had been prepared in advance, and made a bow to Lu Xinyi. She then paid her respects in front of the ancestral tablets set aside before being hoisted onto the vehicle by Kong Xiangrui.
Outside, the double-cab truck was being loaded with the larger dowry items and secured with ropes. Smaller packages were already in the hands of those escorting the bride, who then boarded the vehicles waiting to fetch the bride.
The procession was surrounded by onlookers eager to catch a glimpse of the excitement. Most envied the impressive dowry on display in the vehicles, while a few girls who had grown up with Yiting and were yet unmarried, showed signs of jealousy.
Lu Yixuan’s family of four, along with his aunt, Stone, and Taifeng, were all on the list to escort the bride. Together with another close friend of Yiting, there were a total of eight people.
Lu Yichen and Luo Qiao were staying back to entertain today’s guests. The Lu Family’s banquet was also set up in Jinyuan Garden. A coach bus was arranged outside the courtyard to transport guests, which became a topic of conversation among those in the courtyard.
Once the wedding procession had left, Lu Yichen began ushering people onto the bus to head to Jinyuan Garden.
Lu Yichen and Luo Qiao were quite busy today. They handed their two children over to Elder Rong and Rong Daniang, who found the youngsters quite well-behaved, understanding that their parents were busy and thus, they did not make a fuss.
The Lu and Gu Families did not have many relatives; their guests consisted mainly of friends and colleagues. They occupied one wedding hall, which boasted over thirty tables. The menu, which Luo Qiao had prearranged, received unanimous praise from the guests.
On the other hand, when the bridal procession arrived at the Kong Family home, the truck carrying the dowry was not unloaded but parked in front of the house simply for display.
The gifts in the hands of the eight people who came with the bride, however, were brought into the newlyweds’ room.
When the Kong Family’s eldest and second daughters-in-law stepped outside to greet the escorting party, they couldn’t hide their envy at seeing the abundant dowry, thinking how fortunate their younger sister-in-law was to have such a generous maternal family—truly a source of a woman’s confidence.
Many onlookers were curious why the dowry items were not being moved off the truck, and someone asked the Kong Family’s eldest daughter-in-law, "Why aren’t you taking the dowry inside?"
Although envious, the eldest daughter-in-law explained, "My younger sister-in-law’s marital home can’t accommodate all these items right now. Fortunately, a house has also been included with the dowry. We’ll take everything there later, as it’s closer to her workplace."
"It seems this new bride is quite favored by her family."
"The new bride is the granddaughter of the neighboring Gu family. How could she not be favored? The eldest brother has done well in the army, and the second brother, after being injured in the army, works at the city police bureau, and I’ve heard he’s already become the chief."
"With a house included with the dowry, that’s quite a generous gesture."
"I heard the house was given by the second brother and his wife. For siblings to do so much is really commendable."
"That second granddaughter-in-law of the Gu family is quite something. Her medical skills are said to be on par with the old professors. She has studied under several esteemed professors and can independently perform major surgeries with a high success rate."
