章 853: Without Losing Grace

Amidst laughter and chatter, the sweet rice dumplings were enjoyed, and then the girls returned to their room to continue playing Go. Chu Xuhua and the others went to Chu Xujin's home to drink and spend the slowly chilling long night together.

…

Chu Family Village was brightly lit all night. As morning dawned and sunlight broke through the clouds, the whole village buzzed with excitement.

Grandma Ge knocked on Ge Lihua's door, "Lihua, it's time to get up, bathe, and dress."

"I'm up, Grandma," Ge Lihua replied, then quickly got out of bed to prepare for her wedding.

The bed couldn't fit everyone, so Shen Ruyue and Chu Qingyue were taken away by Chu Xuhua and Ning Yuting in the middle of the night. Tang Jinghong had matters to discuss with Chu Qingzhi, so she also returned to her room.

Chu Qingning, Chu Qingfrost, and Chu Qingyan had stayed with Ge Lihua, and now they were awake as well.
