Chapter 578: Chapter 549 Education_1

After Qi Xiaoyan left, Wang Shuping came over and provided He Tiantian with some knowledge about the relationship between men and women.

In the past, sex education for daughters was typically passed on verbally by the mother due to conservative attitudes.

Wang Shuping said a few words, and He Tiantian hadn’t quite understood yet, but she was already blushing.

"Did you understand?" Wang Shuping asked in a low voice, her face red with embarrassment. Talking to her daughter about such matters was a bit awkward, but her daughter was about to get married and if she knew nothing, any problems on the wedding night would not be good.

He Tiantian understood all about the matters between men and women. It was just her mother’s euphemistic explanation that left her somewhat puzzled.

"I understand!" He Tiantian nodded, seeing her mother blushing, she felt a little embarrassed too.

Not wanting her mother to continue feeling uncomfortable and embarrassed, He Tiantian indicated that she understood.

"That’s good," Wang Shuping sighed with relief, worried that her daughter wouldn’t understand and would be shocked, "The first time might be a bit painful, just endure it; it’ll get better later."

He Tiantian nodded and said, "Mhm, I’ll remember that."

"Alright, it’s getting late. You should rest early; you have to wake up early tomorrow," Wang Shuping said, suggesting her daughter get some rest to escape the awkward atmosphere.

Worried that her mother couldn’t see the path clearly, He Tiantian stood up and walked her mother to the bedroom.

Huo Yingjie stood at the doorway, gazing at He Tiantian. Tomorrow, they would officially be able to be together.

He Tiantian really wanted to walk over to Huo Yingjie, but her dad was watching with a vigilant eye nearby, so she hurried back inside.

Excited and a bit over-stimulated, He Tiantian couldn’t fall asleep. In a daze, it felt as though she had just closed her eyes for a moment when it was already dawn.

Third Grandma Qi came over and combed a sophisticated married woman’s bun for He Tiantian, coiling all her hair at the back of her head and decorating it with a red silk flower that Third Grandma Qi had made herself.

In special times, although they couldn’t dress as elaborately as before with exquisite garments, phoenix crowns, and wearing gold and silver, on the day of marriage, it was still possible to wear red clothes and a red flower.

He Tiantian, with her naturally red lips and white teeth, didn’t need any makeup to look beautiful.

However, for the wedding clothes, He Tiantian didn’t dare to be too flamboyant and chose to wear a red wool coat, red pants, and red leather shoes.

As for Huo Yingjie, he wore a blue Sun Yat-sen suit with black leather shoes, looking dapper with his short hair neatly trimmed.

Huo Yingjie standing together with He Tiantian, they were a match made in heaven!

Previously, everyone knew that He Tiantian was pretty and Huo Yingjie was handsome, but no one had expected the pair to look so stunning once dressed up.

The young men and women were very envious, hoping they too could marry a beautiful spouse and have such an exciting wedding.

Qi Fangfang also came over to look, with a flash of jealousy in her eyes.

It was all because of He Tiantian that her older brother had been locked up.

If He Tiantian had let go of her brother back then, he would still be the promising young man and pillar of his family, instead of the despondent prisoner who had been languishing in jail.

Qi Fenfen felt sad and didn’t want to watch anymore, her mood sour, she left quietly.

The children of Qijia Village were very happy today, almost like during the New Year, with lots of sweets, pastries, and meat to eat.

Third Grandma Qi sat in the middle, with He Jingyu and his wife on one side, and Huo Zhekun and his wife on the other.

Secretary Qi saw that the auspicious time had come, and began to call for the newlyweds to come out.

In the new society with its new customs, bowing down was no longer practiced, so they would bow to their parents and elders instead.

When Huo Yingjie saw He Tiantian, he had only one thought: to hide He Tiantian away so that no one else could see her.

She was too beautiful, and this time, the groom was him.

Tonight, they could finally have each other.

After the ceremony, He Tiantian was led to the bridal chamber.

He Tiantian’s room was decorated as a bridal chamber, with red hues everywhere, and the big double happiness character pasted on the wall.

The village girls and young wives came in to chat and laugh, with Qi Xiaoyan and Qi Daniu helping to entertain and taking out candies and pastries from the cupboard for the guests.

Everyone laughed for a while, but when the feast outside began, they all went out.

The bridal chamber quieted down!

The dinner had six dishes, three meat and three vegetarian, with a total of fifteen tables set up. To have such a wedding banquet in the countryside was quite exceptional.

In the afternoon, some young people wanted to come and tease the bride and groom, but they weren’t close to Huo Yingjie. Persuaded by Qi Xiaoyan and Qi Ergou, with cigarettes and candies in hand, they eventually left.

Those who came to help started to clean up the tables.

These tables, chairs, and dishes were borrowed from other families and needed to be returned after they were cleaned up.

Every time she returned something, Wang Shuping would give a handful of sugar cubes.

By the afternoon, everything was tidied up, restoring peace to the courtyard.

Only Secretary Qi and a few familiar faces remained, chatting in the yard.

Huo Yingjie stood by, occasionally serving tea and water to the elders and offering them cigarettes and lighters.

In the evening, Qi Xiaoyan, Liang Hongyu, and Zhao Dajiao came over to help prepare a table of food and drinks. They left after eating and drinking their fill around seven or eight o’clock.

Now, Third Grandma Qi’s courtyard had finally returned to its everyday calm.

Having been busy the entire day, the elders washed up and left one after another.

Bored and feeling cold, He Tiantian snuggled under the blankets and fell asleep.

When Huo Yingjie entered, he saw the charmingly blushing face of the sleeping He Tiantian and gently approached, sitting at the edge of the bed and reaching out to touch her rosy cheeks.

"Tiantian, you are so beautiful," Huo Yingjie’s hand gently caressed He Tiantian’s face, his eyes lingering fondly on the woman he constantly longed for.

Perhaps Huo Yingjie’s fingers were a bit cold, causing He Tiantian’s head to shrink back into the blanket to avoid his touch.

The previous night, He Tiantian was nervous and excited, and did not sleep well.

Distracted and noisy throughout the day, He Tiantian couldn’t get any rest, so when the night came and things quieted down outside, she couldn’t resist the urge to sleep.

On her wedding night, only this clumsy girl could sleep so soundly.

Huo Yingjie glanced around the room, its simple layout was incredibly cozy, reflecting He Tiantian’s delicate and thoughtful touches everywhere.

Bowing his head, Huo Yingjie leaned in to kiss He Tiantian.

But the strong smell of alcohol on his breath caused He Tiantian to shrink further into her blanket, mumbling, "It stinks."

Huo Yingjie gave a wry smile, letting out a breath and smelling it himself, the alcohol scent was indeed strong.

Now that He Tiantian was asleep, she was already complaining about the smell of alcohol, let alone when she woke up, she would surely complain even more.

Knowing He Tiantian’s stubbornness, she would definitely make him go out and wash up again.

Thinking that he should take action once and for all, Huo Yingjie decided to prepare beforehand, and then come back to indulge in his desires.

He brushed his teeth and washed his face, even using hot water to clean himself a bit.

Still feeling the smell of alcohol, he went to the kitchen, found some dried osmanthus, chrysanthemum, and peach blossoms, chewed them in his mouth, and finally got rid of the unpleasant smell of alcohol, now exuding a faint fragrance.

When Huo Yingjie came back, he was sober, his eyes sparkling as he gazed at the lovely bride on the bed.
