After transmigrating into the body of a widow, I became the richest man in the capital.

Chapter 333 Shit Luck

Su Xiaoxiao felt obligated to do this; it was the only way she could repay her aunt for twenty years of raising her. Su Bingcheng was her aunt and uncle's only son, so the wedding couldn't be too small-scale.

Every time Su Xiaoxiao returned to her uncle and aunt's house, she could feel the care and concern of her family, which is why she was so attached to her home.

A happy expression appeared on her face, no longer showing worry and fear.

While preparing for Su Bingcheng's wedding, Su Xiaoxiao learned that her aunt was also from a scholarly family and a well-bred lady, because after her father retired from office, the family fell into decline.

That was because of the previous emperor's suspicion, and Su Xiaoxiao felt quite sorry for her aunt.

Su Xiaoxiao and her aunt brought gifts and went to Sun Xiaomei's house. They then learned that the Sun family was also very wealthy. As soon as they entered the courtyard, they found that the mansion was no less impressive than the Su family's.

In that sense, the two families are indeed well-matched and a perfect match.

The front hall of the Sun family's house was full of people, all there to welcome the two of them.

"Grandma Su, you've arrived!"

As they were talking, a radiant old lady with a full head of silver hair, supported by the crowd, came to the door to greet Su Xiaoxiao and her aunt.

"It's been so many years, little sister, how have you been?"

Su Xiaoxiao's aunt nodded, "It's quite good. Thank you for your care..."

The two hadn't seen each other for a long time, and this long-awaited meeting was for the wedding of their children.

The silver-haired old lady looked at Su Xiaoxiao and asked, "Is this your adopted daughter, Su Xiaoxiao, the woman who married General Pei?"

"Yes, indeed."

The silver-haired old lady came over and looked Su Xiaoxiao up and down, praising her as she did so, "Hmm, she is indeed a beauty. This praise is almost making Su Xiaoxiao blush."

When talking about Su Xiaoxiao, the silver-haired old lady sighed deeply, thinking of Su Xiaoxiao's mother.

"You really do look like Wanyu."

She held Su Xiaoxiao's hand, tears welling up in her eyes.

Wanyu was Su Xiaoxiao's mother's childhood name, and that's all she could vaguely remember.

The silver-haired old lady spoke while wiping away her tears.

"Look what I'm saying here. It's all in the past. Now our Xiaoxiao is really successful. She's married to General Pei Yuan."

Su Xiaoxiao felt a little embarrassed. Why was it that every time she had a moment of glory, it was associated with Pei Yuan? Could she introduce herself and say, "How about I, Su Xiaoxiao, am I?" But when it came to Pei Yuan, Su Xiaoxiao was also very excited.

After exchanging pleasantries for a while, Su Xiaoxiao also met many people along with her aunt.

Sure enough, Sun Xiaomei's family was a large one, with many relatives and friends present.

Su Xiaoxiao felt that such social engagements were somewhat tiring, so she took a break and went to rest by a lotus pond nearby.

As she leaned against the railing, watching the lotus flowers in the water, she heard someone speaking behind her, "Oh, isn't this Su Xiaoxiao, who married General Pei? What, General Pei didn't come today?"

Su Xiaoxiao thought he was someone easy to deal with, but he wasn't. Although she didn't turn around, she could sense that this person was up to no good, and his voice was full of provocation and contempt.

"Hehe... So it's Cousin Sun." This woman was Sun Xiaomei's cousin, a distant relative, and she was quite pretty.

Sun Xiaomei was standing next to Su Xiaoxiao when she overheard these words. She was furious, as she and her cousin were usually at odds.

Now, bullying Su Xiaoxiao is tantamount to bullying her directly, isn't it? Sun Xiaomei immediately fired back: "General Pei is currently handling military affairs at the front lines and has many things to do. It's difficult for our Xiaoxiao to even see him. But I'm saying..."

She paused, then turned her head and looked at her cousin up and down as if she didn't recognize her.

"You look better. Has your brother-in-law been coming home more often lately?"

That one sentence revealed a lot: Cousin Sun's husband was often away from home. Cousin Sun smiled awkwardly, her gaze slightly displeased.

"Oh, yes, your brother-in-law treats me very well! That's why I look radiant!"

"That's alright. I've heard that my cousin's husband used to beat you a lot, but I don't know if that's true."

Upon hearing this, Cousin Sun's smile vanished, and even the awkward smile disappeared from her face.

She knew Sun Xiaomei was making fun of her, and couldn't help but roll her eyes, but she still wouldn't leave, stubbornly trying to change the subject.

To create an awkward atmosphere, she said, "By the way, I still don't know how Xiaoxiao met General Pei Yuan. Logically speaking, the two of them have such different backgrounds. Aren't you afraid that Xiaoxiao will be unhappy? You're in the fields all day long, how could you have met General Pei Yuan?"

This was indeed something that made Cousin Sun very curious. She didn't know what kind of luck Su Xiaoxiao had to run into such an important person.

"It's a long story. Well, maybe it was destined by heaven. Our Qiaoqiao is destined to be lucky. At that time, General Pei was seriously injured, and Xiaoxiao happened to meet him and saved him. That's how we met."

Su Xiaoxiao no longer needs to speak; there's a dedicated mouth doll beside her.

What could Cousin Sun possibly say? She was practically going crazy with jealousy.

"Never mind, I guess it's time for dinner at home, I'll go eat first, I won't talk to you anymore."

"Take care, cousin!"

After Cousin Sun left, Sun Xiaomei held Su Xiaoxiao's hand and laughed for a while.

At this moment, her aunt came over, followed by the silver-haired old lady, who smiled and said to Su Xiaoxiao, "Let's go, let's go to the restaurant in front for dinner."

As the silver-haired old lady spoke, she grabbed Su Xiaoxiao's arm and noticed that the flesh on Su Xiaoxiao's arm was quite firm. She couldn't help but exclaim, "This child's arms are quite strong. Do you know martial arts?"

Before Su Xiaoxiao could speak, Sun Xiaomei stepped forward and took Su Xiaoxiao's arm, "Come on, let's go eat."

The silver-haired old lady sighed behind Su Xiaoxiao, "This child must have suffered a lot to have such a good life today."

Su Xiaoxiao's aunt did not refute this. In fact, she cherished Su Xiaoxiao more than anyone else, which was obvious to everyone.

During the meal, Su Xiaoxiao didn't seem to mind much, but compared to what had just happened, she was indeed a little unhappy.

When the older generation sits together, they talk about their children, and of course, how to organize this wedding.

The younger generation, including Su Xiaoxiao and Sun Xiaomei, sat together, occasionally whispering and exchanging pleasantries, but overall, the scene appeared quite harmonious.
