C1 It Was an Eye-opener

"She's here, she's here, her new wife is here..."

As the children cheered and gathered around, an extremely festive carriage gradually appeared in the eyes of the people who had been waiting at the Jiang family's entrance for a long time.

Not long after, the carriage with red silk tied to it arrived at the entrance of the Jiang family.

The person who was dressed in brand new clothes slowly walked beside the carriage. It was the youngest son of the Jiang family, Jiang Haofeng. Only when the carriage stopped completely did he open the curtain of the carriage.

In an instant, what entered everyone's eyes was a small white and slender hand that was gently placed on Jiang Minghao's large black and rough hand. Clearly, it was well maintained.

The woman who slowly walked out of the car was dressed in an extremely dazzling red wedding dress. Her figure was thin and petite. She looked like a twelve or thirteen year old girl in the village. Her delicate and small oval face was pale without a trace of blood.

Gu Xiwei lowered her eyes and looked at the distance between the carriage and the ground, which was about the same height as her. The space between her brows was slightly knitted, as if she was worried.

"Don't be afraid..." Suddenly, a rough and dark hand slowly wrapped around her waist and easily and quickly carried her off the carriage.

Gu Xiwei looked at him in surprise but did not say anything.

When Gu Xiwei successfully landed on the ground, the crowded crowd let out a sigh of relief. The chattering of the people also sounded in an instant.

Gu Xiwei did not care about their gazes. Her expression was normal as she let Jiang Haofeng lead her into the courtyard.

One word, poor.

Gu Xiwei instantly understood how miserable the husband's family was.

At a glance, she could see that the few earthen houses at the end of the courtyard were particularly eye-catching. There were two houses on both sides of the main house. On the left was a green vegetable field. The smelly pigsty was even more neighboring to the house on the right.

Even though Gu Xiwei had already made countless expectations in her heart, she still could not imagine that the Jiang family would actually be in such a situation.

Gu Xiwei sighed helplessly in her heart. She resigned herself to her fate and followed Jiang Haofeng to the main hall.

Gu Xiwei slightly tilted her head and sized up Jiang Haofeng who was tightly holding her hand. She followed him and slowly knelt on the straw mattress.

She bowed and poured the tea in one go.

This marriage, even if it was a marriage...

The smile on Gu Xiwei's face did not diminish. She pinched the red seal between her fingers and the corner of her mouth twitched slightly.

There was actually not a single copper coin!

Even so, it could not change the fact that she had already married Jiang Haofeng and became a Jiang family woman. Next, she should also learn to adapt to everything in the Jiang family.

"Mother, look! This is excellent rice! And this meat is estimated to be fifteen kilograms. Mother, we have meat to eat!" A piercing female voice was filled with amazement.

Gu Xiwei looked to the side. It turned out that the butler who had accompanied her since she was young, Uncle Gu, was instructing the servant to carry the food in.

Those things were bought by Uncle Gu from the market early in the morning. Earlier, Uncle Gu had been worried that the Jiang family was too poor and lacked food to treat people to a meal.

Now, everyone could see that they did not have any intention of preparing a meal. In fact... if she did not bring these things, she would probably be hungry on the first day she married into the Jiang family.

"Sister-in-law is indeed from a rich family. I'm afraid that she is used to eating big fish and big meat at home, right?" The woman who screamed just now finally moved her eyes away from the rice and meat. A face full of freckles suddenly came in front of Gu Xiwei with a smile.

"My god, such an exquisite chest. I think sister-in-law's dowry is also very rich, right?" Before Gu Xiwei could speak, the woman's eyes lit up when she saw her chest. Without thinking, she rushed over to her hands.

However, her big fat hand had just touched Gu Xiwei's chest when Jiang Haofeng glared at it. She could only dryly laugh twice and reluctantly move it away.

Jiang Haofeng fiercely glared at Madame Meng and then walked to Gu Xiwei's side. He gently opened his mouth and spoke. "Wife, let's go back to the house and rest for a while..."

"Yes..." Gu Xiwei replied gently. She had just walked a few steps when she saw a few children surrounding the meat and looking at it with eager eyes. "Husband, let mother make some food for those things..."

"Since it is my mother's intention, I will have to trouble sister-in-law to make some food for everyone to satisfy their craving."

The extremely quiet woman standing not far away had a faint smile on her face as she replied. "Xiao Wu, go back to your room to rest after a tiring day. I will call you for dinner."

Gu Xiwei quietly followed Jiang Haofeng's footsteps forward. An ominous feeling gradually rose in her heart. When the sound of the pig's snorting got closer and closer to her ears, she discovered that she wanted to cry but had no tears.

Their house was really next to the pigsty!

Seeing Gu Xiwei's eyes staring straight at the pigsty by the side, Jiang Haofeng's slightly dark face revealed an obvious embarrassment. "Little mother, I have wronged you..."

Gu Xiwei came back to her senses and did not say anything. She only asked someone to bring her dowry close to the house and she followed in.

The house was so simple and crude that one could see at a glance that there was only a bed leaning against the left wall, a wooden table with a foot missing, and two broken chairs. Although the white bedding was covered with patches, it was very clean.

Although it was old and worn, it was also spotless. It could be seen that the owner of the room had also used his heart.

Gu Xiwei's heart was already numb.

At this time, Uncle Gu arranged everything and prepared to say goodbye to Gu Xiwei, "Fourth Miss, this old servant should go back. You... take care of your health..."

"Thank you for your hard work, Uncle Gu..." Gu Xiwei slightly bowed to the butler and thanked him. There was an indescribable gratitude within.

Seeing this, Uncle Gu blinked his eyes and hid the reluctance on his face. He turned around and left without looking back.

"This red silk cloth is not bad. Why don't you give it to me?" Suddenly, Madame Meng's slightly sharp voice sounded again. Gu Xiwei poked her head out of the window and saw that it was Madame Meng who saw Uncle Gu and the others about to leave. She hurriedly pulled down the red silk tied to the horse's body and said that she could not bear to let go no matter what.

Uncle Gu's expression was indifferent as he glanced at her. Naturally, he would not bicker too much with a greedy and ignorant woman like Madame Meng. He winked at the servant and drove the carriage away in a hurry.

"Grandpa butler, why would the Fourth Miss marry someone like this? Isn't it too shabby? " We've traveled thousands of miles to send her off. Not only did we not say anything, we didn't even give you a single drop of saliva! " The attendant was quick-witted as well, and he saw that he had walked far away. Just a grumble.

"You don't want your life anymore! You can't say such things when you get back!" Uncle Gu's expression was slightly cold as he interrupted the servant's complaints.

It was just that he felt that it was not worth hugging Gu Xiwei in his heart. He had watched Fourth Miss grow up. With her frail and sickly body, she would probably not be able to endure for even half a year in such a desolate place!

He couldn't understand why Madam could be so cruel to Fourth Miss.

Gu Xiwei did not think of anything at this moment. She just quietly sat on the bed and looked at the figure who was busy working for her in the house.
