Marriage

Yu Heng rubbed his arm in confusion, blaming it all on him telling Zhang Bo that Yi Ke was a young miss with a temper.

"Why are you throwing a tantrum again? Are you going to my teacher's wedding? If you don't want to go, you can stay at home and let Wan Shi take care of you." Yu Heng handed Yi Ke's lunch to her and went into the kitchen to prepare lunch for the family.

"I'll go! I want to see what a country bumpkin's wedding ceremony looks like." Yi Ke hugged her lunch box and was about to return to her room.

"You can go, but you have to follow me the entire time that day. You can't mess around." Yu Heng had no choice but to say this.

Time passed quickly, and in the blink of an eye, it was Saturday. Red cloths were pulled up everywhere in the village. When they saw Xiao Yan and Zhang Bo's relatives and friends, they congratulated them.

Marriage in this remote village was a joyous occasion comparable to the New Year. The villagers had been preparing since Thursday.

For Yi Ke, she didn't care what happened in the village, but something good had happened to her recently.

When Wan Shi returned that day, he immediately contacted people to arrange for bodyguards to come over. In the end, he called 12 people over. Six of them were retired soldiers, and the other six were mercenaries.

Although the two parties hated each other, they finally compromised. The reason was that the Yi family had given them too much money.

Yi Ke was very satisfied with her bodyguards. They could defeat more than half of the villagers with their bare hands, not to mention that they were equipped with truncheons and electric batons. In an instant, Yi Ke felt safe.

The Missy, who was filled with a sense of security, had returned to her arrogant and luxurious life. She had completely lived a fearless life.

Yu Heng didn't say anything about this. He was also preparing a congratulatory gift for Zhang Bo. His family only had a few chickens. Yu Heng only left two for his parents to lay eggs diligently. The rest were tied with wings and placed in the basket on his back.

"Wait for me to buy some chicks for you guys to raise." Yu Heng looked at his younger siblings squatting in front of the basket on his back and couldn't bear to see them like this.

These chickens were all raised by Yu Xiang and Yu Yu. They were the hard work of the two children.

"It's alright, Brother. Today is Teacher Zhang's big day. Hurry up and send it over. Don't waste time." Yu Xiang urged. Yu Heng nodded and returned to his room to tell his parents about this.

Mr. Yu had been paralyzed in bed for five years. His eyes were no longer filled with energy, but looked at Yu Heng turbidly.

This honest man was destined to be taken care of in bed for the rest of his life. His long life without the light had almost tortured him beyond recognition.

Yu Heng's mother sighed, "It's been so many years, but Teacher Zhang still misses you. Now, he's getting married. Time really flies."

Mrs. Yu was also from a poor family. It was not easy for her to get married. Her eldest son's studies were promising. He was about to get into university in a few years and let the entire family live a good life. However, these things happened. Mrs. Yu felt that she had ruined his life.

Now, the people around her were all married. Her children were no worse than anyone else, but because of the family, he could not find a wife, Mrs. Yu could not help but cry. "It's my fault for delaying you."

Yu Heng didn't say anything. He just pulled the blanket up for the two of them. "It's not your problem. Mother, in two years, I'll save more money and bring you and Father to the city to see a doctor. You should recuperate. When the time comes, I'll find a job in the city. We'll buy a big house and bring our younger siblings to move to the city."

Thinking of her three sensible children, Mrs. Yu could not help but cry again.

He had clearly saved some money to renovate the old house, but something happened to Mr. Yu. When Yu Heng saved enough money, she fell ill. It was as if all the suffering and malice in the world were infinitely magnified on their family. When Mrs. Yu thought of this, she cried.

Yu Heng helped her wipe her tears and heard her say, "Don't be in a hurry to save money. You're already 18 years old and can get married. If you like any girl, go and try and see if you can marry her. You have to get married eventually."

Yu Heng shook his head. "Which girl wouldn't suffer if she followed me? Let's wait another two years."

Just as Yu Heng finished speaking, Yi Shi's voice came from outside the door again. "Brother Yu Heng, Teacher Zhang is getting married. Shall we go together?"

Yi Ke heard Yi Shi's voice from the room and immediately walked out. She deliberately ignored Yi Shi, who had just entered, and shouted, "Yu Heng, are you done? Let's go and see what marriage looks like!"

Yi Ke had meticulously dressed up in her room all morning, but when Yu Heng saw her outfit, he gasped.
