Chapter 148: Stillness Backpack
Before daybreak, the Lin residence had already been decorated with red wedding lanterns and red wedding strips were hung under the eaves.
Lin Jiaojiao changed into a dark red brocade dress and tied her hair neatly. Lin Yizhi stood behind her and helped her put on the jade crown.
"My wife, you are so beautiful."
He looked at the person in the mirror and suddenly felt a little jealous of Fu Qi. This was the first time he saw Lin Jiaojiao dressed up, but this beauty was because of someone else.
She also looked at herself in the mirror with surprise. She had just done a good job of sprucing up her face, trimming her eyebrows, drawing them into a heroic shape, and putting on some lipstick, making her look more energetic.
"Thank you, I think so too."
She turned to him and said with a smile, then stood up, picked up the black cloak with a white fur collar and silver edges hanging on the rack, and was about to put it on when he took it and helped her put it on.
"My dear wife, please come back soon."
She noticed that he was unhappy, so she held his face in her hands and kissed him on the lips.
"You are all equally important in my heart. If I accidentally do something that makes you sad, you must tell me. Don't keep it in your heart. Got it?"
He lowered his head and straightened her collar, "Got it."
"Boss, everything is ready, we can set off."
Lin Dadan called out from outside the door, and she answered, then kissed him before taking her things and walking out of the house.
After getting on the carriage, she opened the curtain and greeted the three people standing at the gate.
"Dad, big brother, Yizhi, please go back to the house quickly, don't catch a cold."
"Good father knows, it's snowing lightly today and we don't know when it will stop, so you should drive slowly and be careful."
"Jiaojiao, we'll wait for you to come back."
Three horse-drawn carriages drove towards the entrance of the village and picked up the head of the village along the way. She was going to get the land deed that Lin Jiaojiao had bought, which would only take effect after paying the silver and getting the seal.
The two carriages at the back were full of people, so she had no choice but to get on Lin Jiaojiao's carriage. As soon as she got on, she was stunned. When she first saw her, she thought it was a lady from a wealthy family.
"Jiao Jie'er, you are so dressed with such an aura that someone who doesn't know you would think you are a young lady from Kyoto."
Lin Jiaojiao was immediately amused by the village head's reaction, "Hahaha, really? I didn't expect the village head had been to Kyoto."
The headman waved his hand and said, "No, no, I just happened to meet the Third Prince returning to Qingzhou a few years ago. He was also escorted by the Second Princess and the general. I still remember the scene."
She immediately thought of the man in red clothes lying on his side in the gauze curtain with a pipe in his hand that night. This man was considered an outlier in this world. Looking at his scarred skin, she knew that he was a man with a story.
But this has nothing to do with her. If she deals with such people, she might die without knowing it.
Seeing her thoughtful look, the village head thought she was interested and continued, "A few days ago, I went to the city and heard that the second princess embezzled public funds and the empress took back her real power. Alas, it feels like the world is changing again."
"Yeah, but let's not worry too much. After all, it's none of our business. We just need to live our lives in peace and order."
She shouldn't watch too many battles for the throne on TV. The change of dynasties has little impact on small characters like them.
When they arrived at Chongkan Town, it was daybreak and the government office had just opened. The headman took the silver she had given him, went in to complete the formalities, and then came out and got on the carriage.
She hadn't been able to see clearly because it was dark before, but now she realized that the carriages had red curtains and even red hydrangeas were tied around the horses' necks.
Lin Jiaojiao also remembered the reward given by the system. She quickly opened the mall and took a look at the points. She already had 6289 points. She directly used 5000 points to exchange for a ten-square-meter stationary backpack.
Before she had time to pack her backpack, the head of the village came in with the deed.
"Jiao Jie'er, are you really going to get married? I thought it was just a rumor when I heard it before, but I didn't expect it to be true."
She smiled and nodded: "Yes, I will go to propose today, and we will get married in four days. When the time comes, the village head will have to come and have a drink."
The head of the village was stunned: "This, this is too fast."
She could understand why she married Lin Shen so quickly. After all, her innocence was gone and she had already set a time to go to the extra mile. But now that the New Year is almost here, she is in such a hurry to get married. Is Jiao Jie'er going on a long journey again?
But she immediately reacted, "Of course I'll come. Your feast is so rich. My grandson wants to come every day after eating it."
Not to mention her grandson, the whole family likes to eat it. It is so much better than what they ate during the Chinese New Year. Moreover, their food has improved greatly in the past few months, because Lin Fen always brings back some bread and pastries, saying that they are what she didn’t buy all that day and they are all benefits from her employer.
Later, when she went to the city, she found out that a small loaf of bread actually sold for about twenty cents, but Lin Jiaojiao gave it away for free. No wonder not only their village but also other surrounding villages wanted to squeeze into the farm to work.
The two chatted for a while, and then the carriage drove directly into Nanshan Chengnan West Road and arrived at the door of Zhishi Dessert Shop.
Liu Wen arrived at the door early and waited there. She had also hung red wedding lanterns at the door. She was very excited as she hadn't seen her boss for three months.
Seeing the carriage approaching and stopping at the door, she hurried over with an umbrella. As a result, the first person to come out was not Lin Jiaojiao. She felt a little disappointed and hurriedly helped the headman get out of the carriage and walked to the eaves of the shop. She turned around and wanted to continue to go to the carriage, but was fascinated by the person who lifted the curtain and smiled at her.
"Xiao Wen, long time no see."
She came to her senses and trotted over to her, "Boss, you're finally back!"
"Well, this store really works hard for you."
"This is what I should do. Boss, I didn't recognize you just now. Oh my God! Boss, if you come to guard the store, it will definitely attract a lot of people to buy things!"
She hid under Liu Wen's umbrella and went back to the store together. "Really? I just changed my clothes. Is the change so big?"
Liu Wen's eyes lit up when she heard this, and she said affirmatively, "Big! She is like a completely different person. Boss, please dress like this from now on. She looks really good."
People also got off the two carriages at the back, took down the food boxes from the carriages and put them in the store, then followed Lin Dadan to the backyard to move out boxes of red wedding gifts.
Deng Yan secured the boxes with hemp ropes, then picked them up with a shoulder pole. After trying to walk a few steps with it without any problems, she began to tie up the rest of the boxes.
"This is my first time in the city, don't say I'm a little nervous."
"Me too. There are so many red boxes. I don't know which young man the boss married."
Seeing that the people she brought were looking around and talking nonsense, Deng Yan interrupted them directly: "Stop talking nonsense, why don't you try to pick it up and see if it can walk steadily? Don't let it fall over when you walk over it, it will become a joke."
"Sister Deng is right. We'll be here right away."
