Chapter 77 The Third Uncle Gets Beaten
Chapter 77 The Third Uncle Gets Beaten
Under the direction of several supervisors, He Yuzhu followed the procedures.
Today he's the groom, so naturally he has to put aside his superior airs and do whatever others say.
Following the customs of Wangjiazhuang, He Yuzhu did as instructed, and Liu Yulan followed He Yuzhu to serve tea to the two elders.
Once the tedious process is completed, it's time to start the meal.
He Yuzhu and Liu Yulan definitely won't attend the banquet; they need to rush back to the courtyard house.
This is a daughter's wedding, not a marriage proposal, so the Liu family is the main focus here.
Seeing that it had been a while, He Yuzhu decided to take his new wife back home.
They then bid farewell to Liu Yulan, Liu Dazhi, Wang Cuilan, their grandparents, and their younger siblings.
Liu Dazhi also set up several tables for a feast; today is a joyous occasion for the Liu family. To save face, Liu Dazhi prepared a lot of ingredients in advance.
He Yuzhu also delivered 20 jin of pork, 5 jin of mutton, and four large carp weighing several jin each to the Liu family in advance.
The bride price given to the Liu family was twenty yuan, which Liu Dazhi didn't actually want. After all, his son-in-law had given the family so much in the past two years, and he was afraid that if they asked for too much, his son-in-law would think they were greedy.
My son will have to rely on his son-in-law to find a job in the future.
Liu Dawei is fourteen years old and has one year left before graduating from junior high school.
According to his son-in-law, if Liu Dawei can get into high school, he can be given a cadre status.
If he only graduated from junior high school, he should be given a worker's position.
With He Yuzhu's guarantee, Liu Dazhi and Wang Cuilan had no reason to worry about their son's future.
As parents, being able to find a job for our son and a wife for him is enough to fulfill our mission.
As for Liu Yulan's two younger sisters, Liu Yuqiu and Liu Yuju, that's not important.
Liu Yuqiu and Liu Yuju held onto their second sister, feeling extremely reluctant to part.
Looking at He Yuzhu and Liu Yulan, who seemed like a perfect match, Liu Yuchun felt a sharp pain in her heart.
Everyone says that marriage is like being reborn for a woman, so why am I so unlucky?
Now I stay home every day to take care of the children, serve my in-laws, and do farm work.
Even so, she was often beaten and scolded by her husband, Zhang Ming.
She hadn't done anything to wrong him at all, but because he heard some gossip, he didn't trust her at all.
If Liu Yuchun had known she would end up like this, she would have preferred not to marry Zhang Ming even if she had chosen not to marry at all.
Seeing He Yuzhu taking such good care of her younger sister, Liu Yuchun felt even more jealous and upset.
Zhang Ming, who was standing nearby, had been observing Liu Yuchun the whole time. Seeing the expression on his wife's face, his heart grew increasingly sinister.
Even though Liu Yuchun was proven to be a virgin on their wedding night, Zhang Ming still felt that she had cheated on him.
Over time, Zhang Ming's hatred for He Yuzhu and Liu Yuchun deepened. He even took his anger out on the Liu family, feeling that they were birds of a feather with He Yuzhu.
The Liu family and He Yuzhu concealed what had happened between Liu Yuchun and He Yuzhu.
Zhang Ming had already chosen a little green hat and was wearing it on his head; no one could stop him now.
Considering the time constraints, He Yuzhu and Liu Yulan hurried to catch their ride and left Wangjiazhuang Commune.
Liu Yulan and He Yuzhu waved goodbye frantically to their parents, younger brother, and younger sister from the car window until they could no longer see them.
He Yuzhu also saw Liu Yulan's agitation and could only try to calm his young wife down.
Two years have passed, and today I can finally marry the new version of Fan Bingbing. Heaven knows how he survived those two years.
Well, Qin Huairu, that's not important.
"Wife, don't look anymore. We can come back to visit them often later."
"Yeah, Brother Zhu, thank you."
As Liu Yulan spoke, she leaned against the other person, because of the red flowers on their clothes.
Everyone understood that they were a newlywed couple, and the people in the car all smiled knowingly. Otherwise, they would definitely have been taken to the police station, but naturally, they wouldn't be now.
He Yuzhu quickly handed out cigarettes and candy to everyone, naturally receiving a round of congratulations.
They arrived in the capital amidst laughter and joy.
He Yuzhu and Liu Yulan arrived at the Beijing train station and got off the train. He Yuzhu then led Liu Yulan to the bicycle parking area.
He gave the old lady watching the car a dime, then pushed the car away.
Liu Yulan sat on the back of the bicycle, hugging He Yuzhu, her head resting on the man's back. From this day forward, they were husband and wife.
This dream has finally come true, and I no longer have to worry about anything going wrong.
Arrived at the subdistrict office.
Both parties produced letters of introduction, and soon a marriage certificate, resembling an award certificate, was issued.
He Yuzhu once again handed out wedding cigarettes and candies to everyone. After leaving the street office, the two looked at the certificates of merit in their hands.
"Brother Zhu, are we getting married already?"
"Yes, we're married. Honey, come home with me."
"Yes, let's go home."
Liu Yulan excitedly got on the bicycle and followed He Yuzhu towards Nanluoguxiang.
Despite the engagement having lasted for so long, neither Liu Yulan nor her family had ever visited the courtyard house.
The main reason was that He Yuzhu frankly told the Liu family about some things in the courtyard house, and they were very angry when they heard that there were so many demons and monsters in the courtyard house.
Zhu Zi, such a good person, was actually slandered as a bad person by them.
In order not to disgust the other party, and not to cause any changes to their marriage, the Liu family gave up the idea of visiting the He family's home.
As for Liu Dazhi, whether Wang Cuilan truly believed him or chose to believe him for her son's job, no one knows.
Liu Yulan truly thought highly of He Yuzhu, so naturally she wouldn't cause any trouble.
It's better than marrying a cripple or a divorced man, right? Since Brother Zhu said not to go, then I won't go.
She trusted her own judgment and had complete faith in He Yuzhu's character. As for the rumors and gossip from others, what did they matter?
Besides, these days, what kind of conditions can a village girl who marries into the city afford to be picky? The fact that he's not a cripple or a divorced man is already considered excellent.
Besides, after two years, they had already fallen deeply in love, and no one else could sow discord between them.
Yan Bugui waited at the door, hoping to get some benefits from He Yuzhu.
Although I've never gotten anything from He Yuzhu before, today is He Yuzhu's big day, so I can't just hit him.
It would be even better if the other party hit someone; it might ruin their marriage.
Yan Bugui's idea was quite good; Yi Zhonghai had persuaded him with just a few words. Of course, Yan Bugui wouldn't have done it if there were no benefits to it.
Who told Yi Zhonghai to give so much? He was actually willing to give up fifty yuan to ruin He Yuzhu's marriage.
Fifty yuan completely bewitched Yan Bugui; he couldn't think of anything else. He was also confident that He Yuzhu would restrain himself today and wouldn't really turn against him.
He'd never seen a groom resort to violence on his own wedding day. Thinking of this, Yan Bugui finally mustered the courage to stand at the door, ready to intercept He Yuzhu.
This was Yi Zhonghai and the deaf old lady's last resort. They couldn't very well engage in close combat, so they both felt it was better to stay in the back.
If this still can't stop He Yuzhu from getting married, then we'll have to figure things out slowly later. According to the deaf old lady, even if you get married, you can still get a divorce.
He Yuzhu is not easy to deal with; the country girl he married certainly isn't as smart as him.
If He Yuzhu gets divorced through his schemes, it will be really difficult for him to remarry in the future.
It was already an accident that He Yuzhu was able to get married. No one expected that He Yuzhu, who was only twenty years old, would rush to find a wife from the countryside.
Yi Zhonghai, the deaf old lady, and the others thought He Yuzhu would be picky about his wife in the city. This misconception allowed He Yuzhu to secretly marry a wife successfully, but it certainly won't be so easy next time.
Xu Damao, Li Tieniu, and Zhang Xiaoquan are now all helping out at the He family's place.
Li Xiaoman and Zhang Panpan's mother helped He Yushui clean up the house.
He Yushui asked the two to prepare a large banquet in the kitchen. Her elder brother had told her in the morning that all the ingredients in the kitchen were ready.
Although He Yushui didn't know when her older brother bought the ingredients, she was used to her brother's resourcefulness.
Xu Damao felt envious and jealous. Although he had a good relationship with He Yuzhu now, he always felt that he should be more successful and live a better life than He Yuzhu.
Although they have always been good friends, Xu Damao can't help but want to compete with He Yuzhu.
In particular, upon hearing that the other party is engaged or getting married, one might even secretly harbor thoughts of sabotaging their marriage.
Xu Damao was startled; this impulsive act was completely irrational. Besides, He Yuzhu might seem all smiles to him normally, but if he really did it, the other party might actually beat him to death.
The main problem is that Xu Damao had no idea who the other party was or where they were from.
He Yuzhu never mentions his fiancée; he simply won't speak when asked.
Xu Damao felt that He Yuzhu was being unfair, but he couldn't force him to.
Xu Damao is now quite glad that the other party didn't tell him. If he had known the detailed address and name, it's hard to say what might have happened.
When the commotion came from the front yard, Xu Damao, Li Tieniu, and Zhang Xiaoquan had already run over.
Yan Bugui lay on the ground, covering his face and wailing.
"Da Mao went to the police station to report that someone had robbed him on the road."
Upon hearing He Yuzhu's words, Xu Damao immediately prepared to go out.
Yi Zhonghai and Liu Haizhong hurriedly stopped Xu Damao.
"Zhu Zi, it can't be that bad, your third uncle is just joking with you."
"Who's joking with you? On my wedding day, you're blocking my way and demanding money. Isn't that highway robbery? If you dare to stop me, you're accomplices and will all get shot."
Liu Haizhong, Yi Zhonghai quickly let go of his hand.
Yan Bugui didn't dare to delay and hurriedly called out to He Yuzhu.
"Pillar, Third Uncle was wrong. Just ignore me like I'm nothing."
Seeing that several people had given in, He Yuzhu took Liu Yulan's hand and turned to walk into the central courtyard.
The other onlookers also went to the Intermediate People's Court. As for the few shameful old men, they had long been a laughing stock in everyone's eyes.
Yan Bugui thought he could gain something today, but he had just finished saying a few words when...
He Yuzhu then punched and kicked him, shouting that someone was robbing him.
Yan Bugui was completely bewildered. Was that what he meant? Although he did want to force the other party to give him some benefits, how did it turn into robbery?
