Reborn in the 80s: The Smart Wife with a Secret Space

Chapter 1297: Chapter 1297: Bitterness Finally Gives Way to Sweetness

A group of people entered the Su family courtyard. Cheng Liying, holding Shen Guqing, gave her a thorough look over and said, "You’ve been well taken care of."

Shen Guqing, being alone for quite some time, felt shy upon hearing these words from the lady.

Her future mother-in-law was a good cook, and after she returned, she made a variety of delicious dishes for her.

The main reason was that Zhang Yueshan, that man, insisted she stay in the room close to the Su family, delivering food to her through the wall in the middle of the night—it’s a wonder she didn’t gain weight.

There was no guest house in the town, so Zhang Yueshan went to the prefabricated panel factory in front, asking for the keys to the small courtyard he had mentioned in advance.

He returned to find Granny Zhang: "Mom, here are the keys to the Liu family courtyard. Go over and tell Guqing. If Master and Madam are tired, we’ll take them over to rest."

The Liu family courtyard was newly built, and they moved in two months ago. Recently, the second young lady married into the city and had a baby, so except for Uncle Liu, who was watching over the prefabricated panel factory, the rest of the family went to the city.

He straightforwardly arranged with them to borrow it for a few days, giving the family twenty yuan.

Just borrowing for a few days and getting twenty yuan, the Liu family agreed readily. When he needed to use it, he’d just find Uncle Liu at the prefabricated panel factory to get the key.

After Granny Zhang exchanged pleasantries with them, she said to Shen Guqing, "Your Master and Madam must be tired after all this fuss. Earlier, Shanzi went and fetched the keys to the Liu family.

I thought we’d let them have a meal in our courtyard first, and afterward, take them over to rest?"

This had been discussed before, and Shen Guqing laughed, "Mom, you always think things through."

Then the task of entertaining them was left to He Jinxuan and Xinyan, as Xinyan was familiar with the small town.

Today was Shen Guqing and Zhang Yueshan’s big day, and Xinyan stayed in the borrowed room at the Su family last night, accompanying Shen Guqing.

If she hadn’t lit the calming incense prepared by Xinyan ahead of time, Shen Guqing might have been sleepless all night.

Xinyan got up before dawn and also pulled her senior sister up, "Senior sister, wake up, it’s time to get ready and do makeup."

In her daze, Shen Guqing remembered it was her and Zhang Yueshan’s wedding day. She suddenly became alert, "Yanyan, your calming incense is really good."

Xinyan laughed, "If you don’t use the calming incense, you’ll have panda eyes today."

These words made Shen Yuqing laugh too, "At that time, Shanzi and I could become famous overnight."

Seeing the smile on her senior sister’s face, Xinyan understood that her senior sister was truly happy now, having Uncle Shanzi who cherished her and a mother-in-law who adored her as a daughter.

Finally, sweetness followed her hardships.

When it was time for the wedding, He Jinxuan’s car was directly put to use. Bright red flowers were tied to the front of the cars, and they made a special loop around Malan Town, then went to the Su family to pick up the bride.

Xinyan put a light makeup on Shen Guqing, helped her to put her hair up, paired it with a mortise red dress, along with a red coat of the same series, making Zhang Yueshan, who came to pick up the bride, stare in awe: "Guqing, I’ve come to pick you up."

Their affectionate gaze didn’t last long before it was interrupted by everyone’s teasing.

The banquet prepared by the Zhang family was pretty good, and all the relatives and neighbors who came to attend the wedding praised it, fulfilling Granny Zhang’s heartfelt wish.

After the wedding ended, since the next day was New Year’s Eve, Xinyan and the others didn’t stay long but began their return journey in the afternoon.

While the Master, Madam, and the two senior brothers had booked afternoon train tickets, fitting just right to squeeze in with Xinyan’s group, hitching a ride to the city’s train station.

Shen Guqing felt reluctant, but knew she would soon be back in the Capital to see them again, especially with Zhang Yueshan continuously accompanying her, only retrieving her gaze when the two cars drove far away.

Afraid that his wife would feel upset, Zhang Yueshan comforted, "We will soon return to the Capital."

Shen Guqing coyly replied, "I’m not a young lady; of course, I understand this. Wherever you go, I will go."

Thinking about the departing cars, she added, "It’s just a bit heart-wrenching to see them rush here through snow only to leave again so quickly, just because I married here."

Though lacking relatives, she has mentor connections. Now that she’s found someone to spend the rest of her life with, she suddenly feels everything is at peace.
