Chapter 1423: Chapter 1423: A Demonstration of Authority
"Tsks, tsks, tsks. This is really pitiable!" Zhang Chaoqian shook his head, a look of sympathy on his face, "It’s just like they say, ’the flowers are willing, but the water is heartless.’"
"Don’t go spouting nonsense, Glasses! Remember our task here and block them all for me. They can’t just steal my sister away that easily!" Li Zhi’s fists cracked as he rubbed them.
"Are you planning on starting a fight?" Gu Shuangshuang glared at him, "I’m telling you, don’t go overboard later. The villagers are all honest people, not like you guys, each with three sets of ulterior motives. Just don’t bully anyone, that’s all I’m asking."
"Not bully anyone? I think you’re just worried about Tian Niu getting slighted," Li Zhi smirked. "Let me tell you, now that we’re here, we can’t just let you be taken away easily."
"That’s right. The easier things come, the less you appreciate them."
"And shouldn’t we give the new son-in-law a bit of a tough time as well?"
Listening to their discussion, Gu Shuangshuang was exasperated: "Oh my God! You three are here to wreak havoc, aren’t you? Can someone please be kind enough to kick these three out?"
As they were talking, they heard Grandma setting off firecrackers and beating drums.
Speak of the devil and he shall appear.
Li Zhi lifted the curtain and looked outside. The people coming to fetch the bride weren’t from the village.
It was a whole troop of soldiers.
They marched in step, heading this way.
Leading them was naturally Tian Niu, with a bright red flower on his chest that was even more striking than him.
"The groom’s procession has arrived. Everyone, get ready to shine," Li Zhi said.
"That’s right, let’s get him ten or eight big red envelopes first," Zhang Chaoqian said excitedly, rubbing his hands together.
"Are you guys robbers or what?" Gu Shuangshuang looked at them with a headache, "Can everyone please be more mindful? I’m emphasizing again, today is my wedding day!"
"We got it!" Cheng Yue waved his hand at her, "Don’t think so little of us. You know, we’re all here for your happiness."
Tian Niu led the procession grandly to the front of the village center.
The locals all crowded around to watch the excitement.
The butler waved his hand and a burst of small firecrackers crackled, instantly heating up the atmosphere like a fireworks display.
Tian Niu stood in front of the village center, excitedly adjusting the red flower on his chest. frёewebηovel.cѳm
"Quit dawdling," Qin Jian chuckled as he watched the nearly ruined red flower, "Gu Shuangshuang is inside, she must be getting impatient!"
An Hao watched Tian Niu’s honest and straightforward demeanor and couldn’t help but smile.
She wondered what Qin Jian’s expressions had been like when he stood outside the door going to knock on their wedding day.
"Company commander, hurry up and call her," the soldiers were also getting impatient.
"Shuangshuang," Tian Niu gently knocked on the door and called through it, "I’m here to take you home."
"Tian Boy, why do you sound like a scared egg today! Can’t you knock with a bit more strength?" the butler couldn’t help but speak up.
"Exactly," the soldiers echoed, encouraging Tian Niu, "Company commander, use that commanding voice you use on the training ground and call your wife out!"
Taking the encouragement to heart, Tian Niu cleared his throat, raised his hand, and pounded on the door, yelling, "Wife, I’m here to take you home!"
"Then come in," Gu Shuangshuang shouted through the door.
"But you have to open the door first," Tian Niu called back.
No sooner had he spoken than the sound of the door latch clicking open was heard.
