Chapter 1105: Lan Li’s Engagement 9
He Teng glanced at his wife, whose eyes were nearly lost in her laughter, scratched his head, and said, "Bought a lot of stuff, it’s easier to carry this way."
After speaking, He Teng led He Zhilan into the room and dumped everything out, saying, "Bought you some snacks. As for the cosmetics, some of what you wanted weren’t available, so I had the shopkeeper pick out similar ones for you."
He Teng didn’t mention anything about the pendant he had his eye on and wanted to buy for her. It wasn’t intentional; it’s just how he is.
He Teng’s personality is steady and calm. If he isn’t one hundred percent certain of something, he won’t say a word about it. When it comes to buying things, unless he’s already bought them, he won’t bring them up at all.
He Zhilan watched as He Teng pulled out all the small snacks from the basket in one go, feeling both amused and exasperated. "What do you take me for, a three-year-old child? They’re all kids’ snacks~"
He Teng took a look at He Zhilan, thinking to himself that, in his eyes, Zhilan didn’t seem much different from a child—always needing him to worry about her.
The following days were when the Niu Family was at their busiest. Living with the Niu Family, He Zhilan and He Teng wouldn’t treat themselves as honored guests who did nothing to help. Over the next two days, He Teng helped the men of the Niu Family with various tasks, while He Zhilan joined the women to clean vegetables, slaughter chickens and ducks, and prepare the wedding banquet.
In the blink of an eye, it was Xiaojia and Niu Li’s wedding day—a day when the village bustled with lively energy.
The village consisted of just over a hundred households, and essentially, everyone could be considered relatives through various connections. When the Niu Family held a celebration, not everyone could come for drinks, but nearly every household sent a gift.
