Prank wedding pranks? Little fortune teller remarries military officer in a sweet romance.

The bride is supposed to return on the same day, but she is far from home. Her in-laws value her highly and warmly invite her to stay overnight.

Sun Yulan pursed her lips, thinking it was impossible.

Would a family that doesn't even offer a bride price let someone stay?

Thinking about it made her angry: "Look around, which family doesn't ask for a dowry when they marry off their daughter? You're so easy to talk to... Hey? Old Ling, look... isn't that Xia and her family?"

Ling Guosheng stood up and looked out from the courtyard gate, but before he could see the person clearly...

Aunt Ling from next door, with her sharp eyes, recognized the three Ling sisters from afar and jogged over to them.

"Oh my, September, weren't you getting married today? Why...why are you back again?"

She had a loud voice, and her shout reached several nearby households, who gathered around to inquire about the situation.

Ling Qiu felt resentful. Her third aunt was the most hateful. She was envious when He Zhigao came to visit before, saying that her family had gotten such a good son-in-law for free, and that the marriage probably wouldn't work out.

Now that my second sister has returned, she's rushed over to see what's going on.

"Third Aunt..."

Ling Chun, holding her younger sister down, said calmly, "The He family is ill, seriously ill. This marriage is off!"

Rather than waiting for people to speculate behind your back, it's better to just say it directly, so that these people won't gossip behind your back.

Aunt Ling asked again, "What's wrong? When Xiao He came over before, he seemed like a very energetic young man, I didn't notice anything wrong with him."

Sun Yulan jogged over, not asking her daughter what happened, but simply took Ling Jiuyue's hand and patted it gently.

"Fine, if we don't want to get married, then we don't. Let's go home!"

They know their own daughter well; she wouldn't have gone to her parents' home on her wedding day unless something really went too far. Something must have happened.

The old lady of the Ling family came over, leaning on her cane and wobbling with her small feet.

"No way, she's already married. Why is she suddenly being sent back? Ling Jiuyue, did you do something inappropriate that got you kicked out?"

"Mom!" Ling Guosheng said with a stern face, "I've already said the He family has problems, and my daughter won't marry him. Why are you saying this?"

Grandma Ling wouldn't let him in: "What do you know? You entered someone else's house without paying a single penny, and now you've been kicked out. It would be strange if nothing happened!"

She's already married, so she's not allowed to go back to her parents' home. There are still young women in the family who haven't left home yet, and we can't let her marriage affect the other girls' chances of finding husbands!

Aunt Ling chimed in, "Yes, September. Everyone saw you leave, and now you're back. I've lived most of my life and never seen a bride be returned on her wedding day. If you don't give a reason, it will definitely affect your younger sister and the rest of the family!"

Sun Yulan immediately became furious: "My daughter, she can marry if she wants, and come back if she wants. It's none of your business to interfere!"

Ling Jiuyue pulled her mother back, slowly glancing over Ling San's aunt and the old lady:

"You really want to know why?"

At this moment, the villagers and people working nearby gathered around, clearly wanting to hear what was going on.

Aunt Ling chuckled awkwardly, "September, we're all family, Auntie is just concerned about you!"

"Thank you so much for your concern!" Ling Jiuyue said regretfully.

"The reason I was rejected by the other party was because He Zhigao's mother cried and made a scene, saying that she couldn't marry the granddaughter of an old widow with bound feet who was remarrying, and that there was also a pregnant aunt who was coming into the family. She said that the family's reputation must be bad. She cried, made a scene, and even threatened to hang herself, and just wouldn't let me into the family."

Ling Jiuyue shrugged, "What can I do? I can't be reincarnated to escape grandmothers and aunts like that!"

"You brat!" Old Mrs. Ling raised her cane, about to hit Ling Jiuyue: "How dare you..."

"What are you doing?" Sun Yulan protected her daughter, staring at her mother-in-law and sister-in-law:

"What did my September say wrong, you old woman? You ran away to marry and have children because you thought we were poor, and now that your son is grown up, you've come back with two burdens. Everyone in the village knows that, and you still have the nerve to talk about my September!"

Ling Jiuyue's grandfather used to be a schoolteacher for a landlord.

It is said that Old Madam Ling was the daughter of a landlord, who fell in love with my grandfather's excellent looks and insisted on marrying him.

After getting married, she complained that her grandfather's family was too poor and argued with her in-laws every day.

She was originally threatening to get a divorce, but then the Cultural Revolution came, and even this landlord's daughter didn't dare to cause trouble anymore.

After her grandfather died, the old lady, disregarding the fact that her two sons were still minors, resolutely remarried in another place.

It was just bad luck for her. She married into a wealthy family, but unfortunately, her husband died in an accident a few years later. This old lady had no shame and brought her son and daughter back to rely on her two sons.

Therefore, Ling Jiuyue's eldest uncle and Ling Guosheng share the same father, while Ling Sanshu and Ling Xiaogu also share the same father.

Grandma Ling favored her eldest and second eldest sons, but doted on her third and fourth sons, which strained the family's relationship.

As for Aunt Ling, Ling Jiuyue wasn't wrong. Uncle Ling fell in love with a female classmate when he was in school.

As the old lady's niece, Aunt Ling deliberately seduced Uncle Ling in order to take advantage of her proximity to him. Less than seven months after entering the family, she gave birth to her cousin.

The Ling family, who were originally outsiders, became the laughing stock of the entire village because of this mother-in-law and daughter-in-law.

Now that Old Mrs. Ling is still eager to be scolded, do you think Ling Jiuyue will let her off the hook?

"Second brother, look at this! Look at your wife and daughter! How are they bullying this old woman? If you don't like your mother, if you think I'm old and troublesome, just say so! There's no need to use your wife and daughter to punish me!"

Ling Guosheng was about to speak.

Sun Yulan glared at him, and he turned his head away pretending not to know, and went over to ask Ling Jiuyue what was going on.

Ling Jiuyue didn't hide anything and told her father everything that had happened in the He family. She also introduced Qin Shixiao to Ling Guosheng.

Ling Guosheng nodded: "Back when we were building the dam, your father and I were in the same group. You even brought him clothes back then. I never imagined that twenty years would pass in the blink of an eye, and you'd all grown up!"

Qin Shixiao said respectfully, "I never expected that Uncle Ling would still remember me. When I was nine years old, I was seriously ill. Everyone said that I would not survive, but you saved my life, Uncle Ling!"

Little Ling helped me first today, so my family owes her a favor. If you ever need anything, Uncle Ling, just call her. I have plenty of brothers, so helping out is no big deal!

Over there, Sun Yulan gave her mother-in-law and third aunt a good scolding before preparing a meal with her eldest daughter. She insisted on having the meal with Qin Shixiao and the others before going home.

Qin Shixiao couldn't refuse, so the group had no choice but to stay for dinner.

The Qin family lives a few kilometers away.

Qin's mother stood at the intersection, looking back and forth, but still couldn't see her son. She was extremely worried.

"Do you think something bad might have happened?"

"No, that won't do!" After settling things in, Aunt Qin reassured her sister-in-law, "Shixiao knows what he's doing, and that girl is clever too, so don't worry!"

Qin's mother pulled her sister-in-law aside and asked Ling Jiuyue in detail, "Auntie, tell me, what kind of girl is that?"
