Chapter 153 Returning Home and Getting Beaten

Yi Ke happily welcomed the bride and groom into the main room. While Ziyi was pouring tea for the two of them, he opened the gifts they had given him and found two packs of cigarettes. He was stunned for a moment, thinking that Ziyi didn't smoke, and then he felt relieved. Although Ziyi does not smoke, etiquette cannot be abandoned. The rules for returning to the bride's parents' home are as follows: bringing cigarettes and alcohol means that the groom's family is very satisfied with the bride. Giving double portions of each gift indicates that the man’s family is wealthy.

Everyone knows how much wealth Ma Youcai has. But he was willing to show it, and Yi Ke was still very satisfied. The only thing that made her angry was that the groom did not know how to be gentle with women.

Yi Ke glared at Ma Youcai with a vicious look. When Zi Yi saw Yi Ke glaring at Ma Youcai, he instantly glanced at Ma Youcai and narrowed his eyes dangerously.

The poor groom suddenly felt a chill. He looked around but couldn't find the source of the cold. He subconsciously leaned towards his wife and said to Yike in a flattering manner: "Sister Yike, I remember you like Moutai very much, so I bought Moutai. I know that you don't smoke, so I bought it just for your sake. Don't blame me, I didn't buy it for you to smoke."

"I don't blame you, really. You're very thoughtful. Haha, you've been busy these days. Why don't you let your brother give you a massage?" Yi Ke said in a strange tone.

"It's not hard, it's not hard." Ma Youcai was frightened by Yi Ke's sarcastic tone and waved his hands hurriedly.

"You're welcome, you're welcome, brother-in-law, let Ziyi give you a massage." Before Yi Ke could even exchange a glance with Ziyi, Ziyi stepped forward, grabbed Ma Youcai's arm and pulled him out.

"Come on, brother-in-law, let me give you a massage!"

"No, no. Ah, don't hit my face, I still have dignity!" Ma Youcai's ghostly howls rang out in the courtyard...

"Sister, why did you ask your brother-in-law to beat him? This is not a good idea. It seems that Youcai has done nothing wrong." Han Guihua heard her man's screams and felt a little anxious. My brother-in-law looks like a good fighter. What if my man gets beaten?

"Don't worry, sister. Brother Ziyi knows his limits. Brother-in-law is thick-skinned and can't be hurt. Why are you heartbroken, sister? It's only been three days and you're already partial to him. You only love brother-in-law and not your sister." Yike said coquettishly.

"No, no, my younger sister will always be the first in my heart." Sister Han Guihua became even more anxious and hurriedly explained.

Yike laughed complacently. Her elder sister Han Guihua knew that her younger sister was teasing her on purpose, and she felt relieved: "The older your younger sister is, the more naughty she is. She will even play on your jokes."

"Who told my sister to only have eyes for my brother-in-law now? I'm really jealous." Yi Ke said half-truthfully.

Sister Han Guihua took Yike's hand lovingly and said, "Sister, since you rescued me from that room, you have been my only relative. No one in this world can compare to your position in my heart, really."

Seeing that her sister was serious, she quickly changed the subject and said, "I know. But don't say that next time, or your brother-in-law will be mad at you if he hears."

Han Guihua said, "Don't worry about it. He doesn't dare to leave him alone."

"Brother, brother, you said you wouldn't slap me in the face, why did you do it again?" Ma Youcai cried out in pain outside.

Han Guihua couldn't help but look outside the door and asked Yike, "Is it really not going to break?"

"Don't worry, sister. Brother-in-law has learned from Brother Ziyi. He is very skilled and can't be beaten. Brother Ziyi just wants brother-in-law to use up his energy, so that he won't be too energetic and tire you out."

As sister Han Guihua listened, she understood what her sister meant and her face turned red. He said hesitantly, "I, I'm not tired either. You, you should ask them to stop fighting."

Yike shouted to the outside of the door: "Brother Ziyi, sister said not to hurt the groom."

After a while, Ziyi and Ma Youcai walked in. Ma Youcai's hair was messy and his clothes were covered with dust. He seemed to have rolled on the ground, but there were no scars on his face.

"Wife, look how my brother beat me." Ma Youcai started to complain to Han Guihua as soon as he came in.

Han Guihua pretended to be disgusted and said, "It's so dirty, why don't you go and dust it off."

Yi Ke teased, "Brother-in-law, are you tired now?"

"Good sister, did I do something wrong? Please ask my brother for me. Except for my face, I feel pain all over my body." Ma Youcai said with a bitter face.

"There's no need to ask about this. Your wife knows the reason. Haha, go home and ask your wife. But brother-in-law, I have to warn you. Don't let my sister have a baby so early. She must be at least 20 years old. If you can't do it, go home by yourself today. I want my sister to live in my house permanently." Yike changed his joking tone and said solemnly.

"Answer me quickly. What? Do you still want to practice?" Ziyi threatened.

Ma Youcai was startled and raised his hand to assure, "Sister Yike, don't worry, I will do it. For the sake of my wife's health, I dare not do anything reckless. A child is not as important as my wife. Right? My wife."

"Then don't tire me out in the future." Han Guihua said in a low voice with a blushing face.

"No, no, never again." Ma Youcai finally understood why he was beaten by his elder brother today.

"Well, to celebrate for our bride and groom, let's go to the state-owned restaurant and have a good meal. What do you think, Brother Ziyi?"

"You arrange it. Whatever you say, I have no objection."

"Then go get ready and we'll set off."

…

In the afternoon, sisters Han Guihua and Ma Youcai were preparing to go back. Yi Ke wanted her sister not to go back, because Ma Youcai used to live next door, and now she didn't have to go back to the village. It would be so easy for the two sisters to meet. But her elder sister Han Guihua said, "Sister, before he got married, it was fine for him to live outside for a long time. Now that he is married and has a family, he cannot leave an image that is out of tune in the village. I also want to get to know the members, and I have to go back to get my household registration sorted out."

"Do you still want to go to the forest?"

"Of course I'll go. I've heard from my husband that you grow a lot of crops in the forest and raise a lot of chickens, ducks, pigs, etc. I really want to go and see them. Next time you go back to the forest, take me with you."

"Okay. Sister, it's best not to go to work and earn work points when you go back to the village. My brother-in-law seldom went back to work before he got married. I heard that he only went back to the production team to help with the harvest during the busy farming season. Although you are married now, there is no need to change anything. Your brother-in-law can support you anyway. You should get used to not doing farm work. In the future, you should live in the mountains for a long time so that no one will ask about your whereabouts." Yike taught Han Guihua.
