Chapter 691: Holy Body
Chapter 691: Holy Body
Perhaps because everyone was relatively poor when they were young, and there was a lack of economic resources and entertainment, people were very willing to join in the fun when attending weddings.
After all, there's food, drink, and excitement to watch, and such opportunities only come around a few times a year, so naturally everyone values them.
But things are different now. There are so many more ways to have fun, and living conditions have improved. People are no longer so eager for the food at big banquets. Plus, with so many weddings being held, they're all pretty much the same.
Even when it's a wedding of a wealthy family's child, the venue, decorations, costumes, and props might be nicer and more upscale, but the process is almost always the same. This has led people to now tend to just go through the motions and return a favor when attending a wedding.
Frankly speaking, only a handful of people are truly happy on their wedding day.
The parents of both sides, their close relatives (especially those with good relationships), the two people getting married, and their best friends are probably the people who will care a little.
As for the others, they just come to give a gift and return the favor. Nobody cares how nicely the venue is decorated, how beautiful the bride's makeup is, how many outfits she changed, how professional the MC is, how luxurious the motorcade is, or how beautiful the wedding photos are. Even the groom doesn't care about some things. All that matters is whether the food on the table is delicious. As for everything else, it's almost all forgotten in the blink of an eye.
Unless, of course, some dramatic peculiarities occur at this wedding.
For example, a bride might listen to her best friend and ask for a 6 yuan dowry, but then be unable to come up with it and call off the engagement on the spot.
Or perhaps the bride price was suddenly increased on the wedding day, leading to a fight between the two families.
The groom's brothers came out dressed in imperial armor to present the wedding rings; at the very least, if the best man's pants fell down on stage, that would be a spectacle.
In short, people are already immune to the same old weddings; apart from that, a good meal is the most important thing.
Even if it's only been a month, if people are still talking about how delicious the food was at your wedding, then it proves that your wedding was truly amazing.
It's either because the chef is incredibly skilled, or because they spent a lot of money on the ingredients, like a king crab on the table or a large lobster for each person.
I guarantee that if someone gets married in the future, they'll compare the food at your wedding to what you had, and they'll think your wedding was much more impressive.
But the fight that broke out at the wedding was something Lin Mo and the others had never seen in real life before.
There are some videos online of wedding day dramas, but everyone just takes them for fun. However, if this scene happened in real life, it would be quite impactful.
Sure enough, upon hearing Liu Ruyan's words, Lin Mo and the other person both looked up at the makeshift platform outside.
All they could see was the bride and groom tearing at each other's clothes. Because they were a bit far away and weren't using microphones, and a group of people were pulling them away, Lin Mo and the others had no idea what was happening.
Both the bride and groom were from this village, so you could say that most of the villagers came, plus relatives from both families. So the tables in the tent were almost touching, and there were so many people.
As we all know, the more people there are, the louder the noise becomes. This led to the newcomers on stage starting to argue, while many people below were eating quietly and didn't even notice.
After all, it's a joyous occasion, the banquet has already started, what could possibly go wrong? If something were going to happen, it would have happened long ago, wouldn't it?
In addition, it was the dead of winter and so cold that everyone wanted to finish eating as soon as possible to make room for the people behind them and go about their own business, so they paid little attention to the stage.
"Holy crap, this trip to Nancheng was totally worth it! Awesome!" Upon seeing this, Miss Yuan immediately put down her chopsticks and rushed into the crowd.
Although she was a big glutton, she knew what was important and what wasn't urgent. She could eat every day, but she couldn't have excitement every day.
She could accept missing a meal, but she might only witness a fight at her wedding once in her life, so she had to go and join in the fun.
Seeing this, Lin Mo was afraid that Miss Yuan would cause some trouble again, so he quickly got up and said to Liu Ruyan, "Well, you sit here with the child and don't run around. I'll go and keep an eye on Sister Yuan."
After saying that, Lin Mo ran after Miss Yuan.
As for why Liu Ruyan wasn't allowed to step forward, it's because the scene was a bit chaotic, and there was no point in Liu Ruyan stepping forward.
Besides, they are just ordinary bystanders, neither of them are involved, nor are they the parents or relatives of either side, so why should they care?
With Liu Ruyan's striking presence, he might get a few elbows when he goes in, and if he gets even a scratch, his mother will beat him to death when he gets back.
Since that's the case, it's better to let Liu Ruyan stay where she is and let him go over to see what's going on, and while he's at it, bring Miss Yuan back.
Seeing this, Liu Ruyan couldn't help but smile helplessly. There was nothing she could do; she had chosen a younger man, and since she had enjoyed his youth, she had to accept his immaturity.
In her opinion, it's best to stay as far away from such things as possible. If something really happens, she'll avoid getting herself splattered with blood, since they're not close.
However, Liu Ruyan didn't secretly follow them. She just sat there and waited patiently, so as to avoid any unexpected problems on her end.
On the other hand, Miss Yuan used her petite figure to squeeze her way to the front row in the crowd. It has to be said that flat-chested lolis have a lot of advantages in this regard.
If she weren't a tablet, she wouldn't have been able to get in so easily today.
Meanwhile, on the stage, the bride and groom were each being pulled by a group of people, and even their parents were being blocked by others.
After all, this incident happened on such a joyous occasion. If a fight breaks out, it will certainly be no small matter. Some relatives and friends around are worried that both sides might lose their temper.
"Li Hao~ You bastard, you're not a man! I already said I'm not pregnant, what more do you want from me!" The bride, Ren Juan, was stopped by several bridesmaids and pointed at the groom, cursing him.
Her makeup was ruined from crying; she looked extremely emotional.
"I wronged you? You know in your heart whether I wronged you or not. You clearly told me that we had broken up cleanly, and then what?"
Tell me yourself, what were you thinking? You're sending your ex-boyfriend an invitation to your wedding? What, do you think I'm short of his money?
"You came on your wedding day? Do you want me to see how green you are?" Li Hao retorted angrily, pointing at Ren Juan.
Judging from this, it seems that the resentment had been building up for a long time, and today it finally reached a breaking point and exploded.
Although there were many people around and it was very noisy, the conversation was clearly heard by everyone in the innermost group. Miss Yuan's face turned red with excitement; this was too shocking! She thought the mindless plots in novels were outrageous enough, but she never expected reality to be even more dramatic than fiction.
After all, novels need logic, but reality doesn't; art imitates life.
"You're talking nonsense! I didn't see anything! Which eye of yours saw that?" Ren Juan shouted.
Upon hearing this, Li Hao sneered: "Do I even need to look? Before we got married, you said you were pregnant and wanted to get married. Didn't he transfer 20,000 yuan to you? Now that we're married, do you really think I'm stupid?"
The two engaged in a heated exchange on stage, and their parents couldn't help but join in, with one side accusing the other of indecent behavior and the other claiming that the other had no evidence to frame them. The argument escalated into a full-blown war of words.
Just then, Lin Mo finally managed to squeeze to the front and found Miss Yuan, asking breathlessly, "What's going on?"
Although he was stronger than Miss Yuan, there were just too many people around him, and it took him a lot of effort to squeeze in, given his size.
Miss Yuan, on the other hand, was short and knew how to squeeze through any gaps. Plus, she arrived earlier, when there weren't as many people around, making it easier for her to reach the front.
"It seems the bride's ex-boyfriend also came to the wedding. He might still be in the crowd. Oh dear!" Miss Yuan said, her face flushed.
Hearing this, Lin Mo was stunned. Although he had heard that his sister Juan had a lot of dating experience, he did not expect her to be so dramatic.
He still can't understand why he would send messages to his ex before getting married. He thought he had let go, but in reality, he didn't care about his partner's feelings at all.
Given the current situation, it's no wonder they started arguing. If your ex comes over and you take the liberty of coming over to take a look from a distance, it's fine if you don't tell anyone. But if you let the ex's current partner know, wouldn't that be like giving them a hard time?
So what? You think you can experience the wife I spent hundreds of thousands of dollars to marry without spending any money?
"This is going to be difficult," Lin Mo sighed.
Just then, Li Hao on the stage suddenly shouted, "Enough! Didn't you want evidence? Here you go, this is the evidence!"
After saying that, he directly threw a bulging red envelope at New Year's Eve.
The words "The Bride's Best Friend" were prominently displayed on the cover of the red envelope.
"This is..." Ren Juan was taken aback and asked with some confusion.
Upon hearing this, Li Hao sneered: "What are you pretending for? He gave you 20,000 yuan when he heard you were pregnant, and then gave you another 10,000 yuan for your wedding. Who else could it be but him!"
Hearing this, Lin Mo couldn't help but whisper, "Wow~ This ex is really trying to kill someone's spirit. Isn't this just messing with their mentality?"
But I have to say, they're quite willing to spend money. Either they're harboring resentment and deliberately causing trouble, or they're simply unwilling to let go and can't put it off!
The amount of money given as a wedding gift to Lin Mo and his family was not large, just a normal amount.
Especially for families like theirs, the usual amount is two hundred yuan, and some elderly people even give one hundred yuan.
However, Lin Mo's hometown is not far from Ren Juan's home. His father and grandfather's generation had a good relationship. After all, it was a rural area, and they lived close by, so they naturally visited each other often. So even though his family hadn't been back for a long time, his father initially planned to give 300 yuan. Later, when he heard that Lin Mo and Liu Ruyan were coming, he increased the amount to 500 yuan.
500 yuan may not seem like much, but it's not a small amount when it comes to gift-giving. Many of Ren Juan's relatives gave 500 yuan, and some even gave less than 500 yuan.
Those with a value of over 500 are close relatives or friends.
This sudden appearance of a 10,000 yuan red envelope is naturally very eye-catching.
"What do you think, Sister Yuan?" Lin Mo asked, turning his head to ask when he didn't receive a reply from Miss Yuan.
But when he turned his head, he saw Miss Yuan looking guilty, furtively turning her head as if trying to slip away.
Seeing this, Lin Mo's heart skipped a beat. He pulled her close and whispered, "Sister Yuan Yuan, that red envelope wouldn't be..."
Upon hearing this, Miss Yuan, with a mournful face, said, "Mo-zai, did I cause trouble? I didn't mean to!"
Lin Mo's eyes widened in surprise. Well, it really was true. Just thinking about how Miss Yuan had talked about the gift money before the meal and then rushed out, and seeing her expression now, Lin Mo felt a wave of dizziness.
Giving money as a wedding gift is a matter of course, but giving 10,000... well, it seems there's no difference between giving 10,000 and giving 100,000, Miss Yuan.
After all, she was a rich girl who grew up in the city and had never lacked money since childhood, so how would she know how much to give as a gift?
All she knew was that 10,000 yuan would definitely be enough for her to have a meal here; as for the rest, she could consider it the entrance fee for joining the fun.
After all, this is a wedding, and she wouldn't be able to afford to give too little. Besides, this is her first time attending a rural wedding, so she naturally has no concept of monetary gifts.
But the current situation is that this farce was indeed triggered by a red envelope from Miss Yuan.
Thinking of this, Lin Mo grabbed Miss Yuan and ran outside to find his father to see how to resolve the situation.
Was Miss Yuan wrong? She certainly wasn't. Who would be wrong to give too much as a gift? It must be that there's a problem in their relationship. He then said:
"Sister Yuan, you've achieved the Great Perfection of the Innate Abstract Sacred Body! You should speak less in the future, as your words have become law!"
Miss Yuan:
