Chapter 121 Let's talk about the Zhang family after we've had a little time to touch each
This is the second wedding held in the family compound. The last one was Zhou Dayong and Shen Qingshuang's wedding, but it was ruined by Wenrou.
With the help of Huo Yanchuan and Wenrou, Hao Gang's wedding was a very lively affair.
More than a dozen tables were set up in the family compound, and they were all full.
Hao Gang pushed his bicycle and took Peng Xiaowan to the entrance of the family compound. As Peng Xiaowan got off the back of the bicycle and was about to follow Hao Gang inside, she heard a commotion from the side.
"Carry him in, carry him in."
"Yeah, Battalion Commander Hao, are you impotent? Why aren't you carrying your wife inside?"
"How about we do a few push-ups while carrying our wives on our backs?"
"I think it's a good idea."
Hearing these sounds, Hao Gang turned to look at Peng Xiaowan, whose face was now flushed red.
She reached out and tugged at Hao Gang's sleeve, her fingers trembling slightly with nervousness.
Upon seeing this, Hao Gang reached out and lifted her up around the waist.
Peng Xiaowan gasped in surprise, reached out and hooked her arms around his neck, burying her face in his chest.
"Don't be afraid, I'm here." Hao Gang knew Peng Xiaowan was nervous, so he whispered to her to comfort her.
Hearing Hao Gang's voice, Peng Xiaowan calmed down a bit.
Hao Gang carried Peng Xiaowan all the way from the entrance of the family compound to their home, and only put her down after they entered the room.
"Honey, you stay in the room. I'll go outside and entertain the guests. Call me if you need anything."
Peng Xiaowan nodded, "Go ahead."
Those people outside are his comrades-in-arms; Hao Gang should go and keep them company at this time.
Peng Xiaowan finally breathed a sigh of relief after Hao Gang left.
She waited inside for a while before Wenrou came in.
"Xiao Rou, what brings you here?" Seeing Wen Rou, Peng Xiaowan felt like she had found a savior.
Wenrou held some food in her hand. "I was afraid you wouldn't have anything to eat, so I brought you some. You don't know how long you'll be hungry at noon, so have something to eat first."
"Xiaorou, you're so kind." Peng Xiaowan reached out and hugged Wenrou.
"I saw someone get married in the village before. The bride waited from morning till night and was hungry all day. You should eat." Wenrou put the food on the table and said with a smile.
"and you……"
Hearing Wenrou say this, Peng Xiaowan was about to ask her what her wedding was like, but then she suddenly remembered that Hao Gang had told her that Wenrou and Huo Yanchuan had only registered their marriage and had not held a wedding, so she didn't ask anymore.
She reached out and grasped Wenrou's hand, feeling a pang of sympathy for her.
"You eat quickly, I'll go out and take a look." Wenrou also saw what her look meant, patted her shoulder, and indicated that she didn't care about these things.
A wedding is just a ceremony. If two people truly love each other, she doesn't think it matters whether there's a ceremony or not.
Just as Wenrou had said, Peng Xiaowan stayed in the room from morning until afternoon before finally seeing all the guests off.
If it weren't for the food that Wenrou brought her, she probably would have gone hungry for a whole day.
It wasn't that Hao Gang didn't love his wife, but he had already been drunk by his comrades and couldn't even walk with them, so he couldn't care less about Peng Xiaowan for the time being.
That evening, Peng Xiaowan finally saw Hao Gang.
Seeing that he reeked of alcohol, she had no choice but to fetch a basin of water and wipe his face.
"Wife, I'm so happy today. I finally married you." Hao Gang had finally sobered up a bit and reached out to hug Peng Xiaowan, kissing her eagerly.
Peng Xiaowan looked helpless when she saw that he was still thinking about the wedding night even in this state.
However, even if he wanted to, he was powerless. After a while, the alcohol took effect, and he fell into a deep sleep again.
Peng Xiaowan helped him change his clothes, and it wasn't until after 10 p.m. that she finished washing up and lay down.
It wasn't until the next morning, when Hao Gang was still feeling a bit dizzy, that he remembered he had forgotten about their wedding night.
When he got up, Peng Xiaowan had already gotten up and prepared the meal.
According to local custom, the couple would normally return to their parents' home three days later, but since Professor Peng and Peng Shao are leaving today, the return gift ceremony is scheduled for today.
The Peng family is all here now, so there aren't so many formalities anymore.
The family had lunch together, and then Professor Peng was due to leave.
"Uncle, brother, please take good care of yourselves after you go back." Peng Xiaowan burst into tears at the thought that she didn't know when she would see each other again after this separation.
Professor Peng's eyes were also slightly red. He stepped forward and patted Peng Xiaowan and Hao Gang on the shoulder.
"You two should take good care of yourselves. When you have time, come visit this old man in Beijing."
He was also worried about Peng Xiaowan, but even family members will eventually be separated.
The good thing is that he saw Peng Xiaowan get married, and her new husband is quite nice.
"Yes, I will. When I have time, I will bring Xiaowan to Beijing to see you." Hao Gang gently put his arm around Peng Xiaowan's shoulder and said to Professor Peng.
"Alright, you two live your lives well, we're leaving now." Peng Shao said to Peng Xiaowan and Hao Gang after loading all their things into the car.
Just then, Wenrou and Huo Yanchuan came to see them off.
"Uncle Peng, have you taken everything?" Wenrou asked Professor Peng gently.
"I've taken everything. Thank you so much for taking care of me during this time. When you have time to return to Beijing, you must come over so I can properly entertain you." Professor Peng looked at Wenrou and Huo Yanchuan with gratitude on their faces.
Since the couple arrived here, if he hadn't met Wenrou, he probably wouldn't be able to go back now.
"That's settled then." Wenrou smiled, genuinely happy for Professor Peng and the others.
Although there was regret before because of Aunt Song's death, the Peng family's outcome is still considered satisfactory compared to the previous life.
Peng Shao opened the car door and sat down in the back seat with Professor Peng.
His car broke down several times on the Gobi Desert road last time, so this time he simply hired a driver to help him drive.
He looked at Wenrou and Huo Yanchuan and said, "Then we'll be going now. See you in Beijing later."
Huo Yanchuan nodded and replied, "Definitely."
As the car slowly drove out of the village, many people came out to see Professor Peng off.
After seeing Professor Peng off, Wenrou and Peng Xiaowan returned to their residential compound.
"Xiaorou, you seem to know a lot about Professor Peng's family. Did you know a long time ago that he would be exonerated and return to Beijing?" After returning home, Huo Yanchuan couldn't help but ask the question that had been on his mind for a long time.
Wenrou knew that she couldn't hide these things from Huo Yanchuan, so she nodded.
"Is it the same as what you dreamed about before?" Huo Yanchuan continued to ask.
When Huo Yanchuan first learned that Wenrou's dreams could predict future events, he was shocked, but now he has accepted it.
Although it sounds unbelievable, ever since Wenrou saved him last time, he has completely believed in what she said about the future.
However, rather than believing that it was a dream, he preferred to believe that these things were things that Wenrou had actually experienced, which was why she could empathize with them so much.
"I only knew that the Peng family would be exonerated, but in my dream, that day was still several years later. By then, Professor Peng had already passed away and had not reunited with Peng Shao." Wenrou told Huo Yanchuan everything that happened in her past life.
By then, Peng Shao had already become a business tycoon.
Huo Yanchuan was also shocked to hear this, so it was because of his gentleness that the fate of the Peng family was changed.
He never imagined that the person he initially married casually to appease his family would surprise him time and time again.
"Xiao Rou, it is my happiness to marry you," Huo Yanchuan said earnestly.
Wenrou felt a little uncomfortable seeing him suddenly become so serious, so she changed the subject.
"Huo Yanchuan, I'm thinking of starting a transport fleet. What do you think about recruiting those veterans who have retired from the military?"
She's been thinking about this for the past few days. Anyway, after those veterans leave the army, they will all return to their hometowns, and many of them will have no choice but to go back to farming.
This way, we can not only provide them with a job opportunity, but also make full use of their talents.
She discovered this problem when she went to provide training to the military.
She actually had this idea at that time, but she was heavily pregnant and couldn't do it even if she wanted to.
"A transport convoy?" Huo Yanchuan pondered carefully after hearing Wenrou's idea.
Although he didn't know what Wenrou's transport team was planning to do, he had never imagined that it would provide veterans with another job opportunity.
He knew that Wenrou had a broad perspective and a long-term vision, and that she was never impulsive. He was sure that she had thought about it carefully before she said that.
"I'll support whatever you want to do. My money is all with you. If you need it, feel free to use it." Huo Yanchuan naturally agreed.
With Huo Yanchuan's words, Wenrou felt reassured and went about her business.
"Then I'll go see the land tomorrow." She was already quite impatient.
To build a transport fleet, you need to find a good location.
"There are a few abandoned factory areas a few kilometers from here. They were requisitioned by the military to repair old fighter jets, but they're abandoned now. If you need, I can take you to see them tomorrow," Huo Yanchuan said to Wenrou, thinking of a place.
When Wenrou mentioned starting a transport fleet, the first place that came to his mind was that factory area.
That area also belonged to the military, but it's no longer of much use.
If a gentle transport fleet can be put to good use, that would be a good thing.
"Really?" Her gentle eyes lit up immediately when she heard that Huo Yanchuan had a place.
This is like having someone hand you a pillow when you're sleepy—it couldn't be better.
Seeing how excited she was, Huo Yanchuan smiled indulgently and said, "Would I lie to you?"
"Is it too late to go now?" She couldn't wait to go and see.
Huo Yanchuan couldn't do anything about her; it was almost dark.
He simply borrowed the bicycle Hao Gang had used for his wedding and, with Wenrou in tow, planned to go and take a look.
Seeing that Huo Yanchuan was actually going to take her there, Wenrou ran back to her room to get a flashlight and said impatiently to him, "Then let's go quickly."
Seeing that they were about to leave, Aunt Zhao quickly asked, "It's almost dark, are you going out?"
"Yes, Auntie, we have some errands to run and need to go out. We'll have to trouble you with the two children."
She replied gently, then pulled Huo Yanchuan outside.
Huo Yanchuan pushed his bicycle with one hand, while his other arm was gently pulled. A smile played on his lips as the two walked out of the family compound.
Just then, Zhou Dayong, who had just entered the compound, witnessed this scene.
The two of them acted as if they hadn't seen him at all and went out the door.
Zhou Dayong subconsciously turned his head and saw that Wenrou had already sat on the back of the bicycle, and the two of them rode away chatting and laughing.
Seeing this somewhat jarring scene, Zhou Dayong felt very uncomfortable.
Wenrou had once asked him to take her on a bicycle ride, but he was too shy to agree because he was worried that people would see them and gossip.
Seeing this scene now only breaks my heart.
This was the first time Huo Yanchuan had ever given her a ride on his bicycle. The road was a bit bumpy, and Wenrou initially just held onto Huo Yanchuan's clothes with both hands. But when the bike suddenly went to a bumpier spot, she almost fell off.
Upon seeing this, Huo Yanchuan reached out and grabbed Wenrou's hand, placing it on his waist.
"The road here is not good, hold on tight to me, don't get jolted off."
She gently hummed in agreement, then wrapped her arms around Huo Yanchuan's strong waist.
Although she already knew he had a good physique, this was the first time she had placed her hand on his abs, and she had to admit, they felt pretty good.
So she couldn't help but touch it back and forth.
Just as she was feeling relieved, thinking that Huo Yanchuan hadn't noticed, a man's voice came from the front.
"Let's touch it for a while and then go home. It's easy to fall down here."
gentle:"……"
"Who...who wants to touch you? Don't flatter yourself." Wenrou blushed instantly when he saw through her thoughts.
Huo Yanchuan chuckled lightly, "Alright, I was just being presumptuous."
Wenrou didn't dare to touch it again. She had just thought about how good the men in the movie were to have great bodies, and at that moment she wondered if they would feel nice to touch.
Unexpectedly, while thinking this, my hand went straight to it.
On the way, Wenrou felt that the road was no longer bumpy, so she decided to take her hand down.
Just then, Huo Yanchuan pulled her hand back.
"Hold on tight."
She gently said "Oh," and obediently hugged him back.
At this moment, she was also thinking to herself, what is she being so coy about? The two of them are already a married couple who have a marriage certificate and have a child, so why are they still acting like a young couple who have just started dating?
Just then, the car jolted even more violently, and Wenrou was jolted awake. The next second, she fell to the ground.
Seeing this, Huo Yanchuan reached out and grabbed her waist, and the two of them fell to the ground.
However, she was held by Huo Yanchuan and did not touch the ground, while Huo Yanchuan's entire back fell to the ground.
At this moment, Wenrou even suspected that the man was doing it on purpose.
