Siheyuan: Breaking up with Shazhu at the beginning

Chapter 56: Accept with an open mind

56

In this context, Yang Jun also knew that it was inconvenient to ask for details. After all, the sudden increase of tens of millions of kilograms of grain in the north of the city was too conspicuous. If he did not take more action, it would be difficult to avoid the attention of the top leaders.

This matter cannot investigate the person behind the scenes, but they still need to go through the necessary procedures.

We can't just do nothing.

There might not be a need to arrange a grand banquet here, but it was different for Yang Jun.

After all, he was outside this circle, and these leaders felt that it was impolite not to entertain Yi Qiu Shui properly on such a special occasion. It would be even more difficult for Yang Jun to accept if he did not hold the wedding.

The door of Guo Caodi's house was filled with generals of the older generation. They were wearing generals' coats, and when they saw the wedding procession coming, they stopped talking and watched the wedding car approach.

When Yang Jun saw such a grand scene in the car, he couldn't help but feel nervous.

He immediately stepped on the brakes, engaged the handbrake, jumped out of the car, ran quickly to the leaders, put his legs together, and gave a standard salute.

"Reporting to the commander, I am Yang Jun, and I have been ordered to pick up Comrade Yi Qiushui.

"

These senior leaders looked at Yang Jun's tall and well-trained figure, nodded frequently, and spoke highly of him. This retired soldier still retained his military enthusiasm and loyalty.

Guo Caodi raised his hand to check the time and said to his son Guo Tianming:

"It's almost time, go and get your sister out.

"

After hearing this, Guo Tianming responded and turned to walk towards the inner house.

In both urban and rural customs, the bride must be carried to the wedding car by her elder brother. This ceremony symbolizes that during the escort to her new home, the bride's feet must always be kept in the air and cannot touch any ground to avoid bringing bad luck.

After Yi Qiu Shui got on the bus, the leader waved to everyone to follow.

Not only the principals went to the wedding, but also their distinguished wives and the group of young men from the big courtyard who grew up with Yi Qiu Shui in the big family.

When he saw that there were no seats in Yang Jun's jeep, he decisively drove Yang Anguo into Li Tiezhu's car.

I don’t know what arrangements the old comrades made, but the seven cars that were originally picking up the bride and groom all pulled over to make way for the old leaders’ exclusive cars.

All the cars are luxury cars with "Jun" (military) in their names. Driving on the avenue, they are very imposing, eye-catching and make people feel honored.

After Yang Jun confirmed that everyone was seated, he honked the horn twice before starting the car and driving slowly.

The team left the gate of the military compound and lined up in a single file, looking like a long dragon on the street. Passers-by consciously avoided the convoy, envious of this grand and dignified wedding scene.

During the trip, Yang Jun's eyes could not leave Yi Qiushui, and he could not help but praise: "Look, my wife's makeup is so beautiful today."

Yi Qiushui smiled playfully, blushed slightly and rolled her eyes: "Is it different from what you usually see?"

Bridesmaid Bao Chunlei curled her lips and interrupted, "Hey, can you guys restrain yourself a little? There are other people in the car." At the same time, Qian Jiajia and another bridesmaid also expressed their agreement with dissatisfaction.

Despite the bridesmaids' constant complaints, Yang Jun didn't care.

Because today is a big day for him, his wish is to let everyone around him feel this joy, no matter how much they resist accepting it.

"Three thousand six hundred and fifty nights,

The sweetest night must be the wedding night.

The fragrance floats in the night wind, as sweet as sugar covered in snow,

The magpie couplet implies auspiciousness.

The wine glass is filled with blessings,

…… "

While driving, Yang Jun couldn't help but humming this self-adapted love song. Although it was modified temporarily, the melody was pleasant and the rhythm was cheerful.

The girl sitting next to him blushed after hearing these explicit lyrics, but she looked at the bride Yi Qiu Shui with envy, knowing that she had found a partner who loved her deeply.

"The nest branches of the birds flying side by side,

Green waters and green mountains are all happy,

Husband and wife spend their life together.

The husband farms and the wife weaves, helping each other. "

Yi Qiu Shui was moved by Yang Jun's soulful singing, her eyes sparkled with stars and a satisfied smile on her face.

In my heart, I feel lucky to have found a talented man who is not only good at singing, but can also write appropriate words according to the circumstances.

At the beginning, the bridesmaids were a little shy, but as they listened they found the lyrics to be beautiful, and gradually they became involved and couldn't help singing along.

"You carry the load and I water the garden,

The old cold kiln has a shelter,

... "

Yang Jun noticed that the bridesmaids joined the chorus, but as the singing progressed, something seemed to be wrong - the chorus turned into a duet.

So he coughed a few times as a reminder.

“Cough… cough…”

"Sisters, don't be too casual as bridesmaids. We are not the bride's maids."

Hearing this, the bridesmaids couldn't help but laugh, blaming and finding it funny at the same time:

"Go away! Your little tricks."

"You want to take advantage of the bride and beat her up, right?"

Hearing their jokes, Yang Jun quickly refocused his attention, gripped the steering wheel tightly and concentrated on driving, fearing that he would accidentally lose control.

……

When the vehicle arrived at Nanluoguxiang Hutong, Erye immediately ordered the firecrackers to be set off. Then, Guo Tianming and the young people in the compound carried even larger fireworks from the vehicle.

The story develops smoothly and the atmosphere gradually becomes thicker.

The fireworks had just finished on the groom's side, and another celebration began over there.

There were too many vehicles pouring into the alley, so the guests all chose to park on the main road outside the alley. Only the car driven by Yang Jun went deep into the alley.

There is no noisy suona music, no traditional braziers for toasting, everything is kept simple and plain.

The crowd gathered around the newlyweds and escorted them into the backyard.

Yang Jianguo, the director of the steel rolling mill, served as the host and witness of the wedding. After the enthusiastic blessings, he completed his mission and entered the bridal chamber of the newlyweds.

After sending Yi Qiu Shui into the bridal chamber, Yang Jun quickly returned because he knew that today's guests were particularly numerous and distinguished, and he could not neglect them in any way.

There were already forty or fifty people coming from the steel rolling mill alone. All the factory leaders and workshop directors were present. Some were familiar friends, while others were meeting him for the first time.

But no matter who the visitor is, he needs to treat him attentively.

Yang Jun greeted the guests with a smile on his face, and found his second uncle, asking him to take good care of the guests from the steel rolling mill and the people from Yin Qiu Shui's side, and let them take their seats first.

My second uncle agreed readily and said that this was no problem for him.

My second uncle was particularly happy today because as the main person in charge of the wedding, he finally had the opportunity to communicate with the factory leaders. No matter whether they were familiar or unfamiliar, they all came forward to chat and offer auspicious words.

Then, Yang Jun walked to the front yard, found the dumb Sha Zhu, and asked in a low voice:

"Brother Zhuzi, I'm afraid there aren't enough seats. Can you add a few more tables?"

"It's a small matter. Let alone adding a few more tables, even adding five or six tables is no problem. You already have a rich variety of plates here, and adding a few more won't make any difference.

"

“That’s it, let’s add three tables.

"

Yang Jun thought for a moment and decided that this was a safer approach.

After returning to the backyard, he returned to the task of entertaining guests.

After Guo Caodi led a group of senior leaders to visit the new house, although they had some opinions about the small size of the space, they did not raise any issues. They just followed the guidance of their second uncle and walked into their seats.

The crowds inside and outside the courtyard were so crowded that they seemed to be about to overflow the space. This crowd included not only guests attending the wedding, but also curious onlookers from the neighboring courtyards.

They have lived in this old city all their lives, but have never seen such a grand wedding lineup: from the rows of luxury cars picking up the bride to the distinguished guests in the courtyard dressed in uniform military green, everyone seemed to be in a high position, especially the majestic aura that naturally exuded that made people dare not approach.

The bride is as beautiful as a fairy, and you can tell at first glance that she is a lucky person.

---

At this moment, the wives of the top leaders, leading a group of female relatives, were coming to the gift table in the front yard to toast and congratulate.

Due to Yi Qiu Shui's special background, she has no relatives but is more like their own child in the eyes of her relatives, so they are very unambiguous about giving out red envelopes.

The leader's wife spoke first:

“Guo Caodi, give me five hundred dollars.

"

Xu Damao acted as the cashier. When checking the money, he called out the name of each guest loudly. This was to facilitate financial accounting and also to verify whether the correspondence was correct.

After hearing Xu Damao read out the number, everyone couldn't help but exclaim in surprise.

Everyone began to speculate about the true identity of the elegant lady in front of them, and their eyes became more respectful.

Nowadays, let alone five hundred yuan, even fifty yuan is a generous gift, but the lady directly gave five hundred yuan, which was far more generous than the need for a dowry.

Before people could begin to envy this generous bride, the sound of Xu Damao counting gifts could be heard on the gift table.

“Five hundred dollars in extra cash.

"

"Wang Shaoan, five hundred yuan.

"

"Miao Chengdong, five hundred yuan.

"

"Li Yang, five hundred yuan.

"

“Li Zhong, five hundred yuan.

"

...

As the amounts of money kept being reported, the crowd had become accustomed to such high donations. They talked about the bride's family background and marveled that Yang Jun was able to find such a good match.

Among the twenty-one guests, the bride gave the most generous gifts. Most of the guests gave gifts worth five hundred yuan. Even some wealthy young men were generous and gave gifts worth thirty yuan each. The gift list alone took up five full pages.

As the third uncle wrote down the gift list, cold sweat continued to break out on his forehead. His hand holding the pen had begun to feel numb from being tense for so long. As he watched the amount of the gift money continue to increase, he became more and more shocked.

In the past, he only thought that Yang Jun was capable and difficult to mess with, but now he realized that Yang Jun was a hidden talent and his bride was someone no one could afford to offend.

The men wearing the coats of generals and lieutenants had demeanors as steady as mountains. They must have gone through life and death trials to be able to display such calmness and composure.

Moreover, all the female guests who attended the event exuded a noble air, which could be seen from their clothes.

Xu Damao could no longer bear to sit there, so he simply stood up, hunched his back slightly, and respectfully took the gifts from them.

Perhaps due to excessive excitement or nervousness, he stuttered when he reported the amount of the gift money...

After the newlyweds returned the gift, no one was willing to come forward to give another gift for a long time.

They were all afraid that the small gifts they brought would seem particularly shabby compared to those of others.

Everyone present had to save face and didn't want to add any extra burden.

Seeing that everyone was hesitating, Ji Demin signaled the others with his eyes and took the lead:

"Ji Demin, I respectfully present you with two hundred yuan."

Hearing this, everyone focused their attention on Ji Demin.

Although the total amount of gifts from this middle-aged man in a Zhongshan suit was not as much as that of others, no one dared to ignore his presence.

To him, two hundred dollars is not a trivial amount that can be taken lightly.

"Li Lixin, two hundred yuan."

"Peng Dehai, two hundred yuan."

"Wang Dezhi, I respectfully present you with two hundred dollars."

"Two hundred dollars for Shengli."

...

When it was Li Tiezhu's turn, he walked forward with firm steps, took out a thick stack of banknotes from his pocket and put it on the table.

When Xu Damao saw this scene, his eyes widened and he counted the pictures one by one with trembling hands and saliva.

"Li Tiezhu, the total gift is 1,200 yuan."

"Wow……"

Everyone was amazed again.

Although they had seen Li Tiezhu take out a heavy wallet and had expected the gift money to be considerable, they were still surprised when they heard the actual amount.

Finally, someone appeared who offered a higher gift money than the other party’s family.

One thousand two hundred yuan!

What kind of concept is this?

No one present dared to think too deeply about it, but deep down, they were all asking themselves how many years of hard work it would take to accumulate so much money.

Everyone knew in advance that Li Tiezhu took out 1,200 yuan for two reasons: 200 yuan was a gift between him and his comrades, and the other 1,000 yuan was compensation between him and other comrades.

Ji Demin and the others were fully aware of this and did not feel jealous because he gave too much as a gift.
