Chapter Ninety-Nine: Happy Wedding, Yuzhu!
Zhou Congsheng grunted "Hmm?" and looked at Chu Lian and Zhou Daoming with a puzzled expression. The two of them then recounted to Zhou Congsheng what a visiting sister-in-law had said.
The man spoke with great detail and conviction, and seeing their strange expressions, he took his leave.
In fact, they knew very well what their son was like. Over the years, the only person they cared about was Shen Yuzhu. They were just angry because their son had handled things this way.
If he were responsible and had a sense of duty, he shouldn't have given any girl the chance to get close to him, let alone let Shen Yuzhu find out about it.
Such a good daughter-in-law, if Zhou Congsheng manages to drive her away, haha... he'll be in for a double whammy of men and women!
Knowing he was in the wrong, Zhou Congsheng simply explained the whole story to Chu Lian and Zhou Daoming, especially the recording.
"Mom and Dad, now you understand, right? I suspect that the old lady who came to our house has bad intentions. Tell me what her characteristics are, and I'll go find her."
Chu Lian waved her hand, "No need to go. Why make yourself uncomfortable? What they said is ambiguous. If you go to their door, wouldn't that be admitting to it?"
Zhou Congsheng was just saying that; he wouldn't walk into a trap. During the conversation between the three of them, he had already made up his mind and felt that the Guan family might be behind this.
He wanted his clueless parents to cause trouble for him and Shen Yuzhu, preferably by creating a big scene. This would spread rumors about the Guan family and help restore Guan Yiting's reputation.
That's quite a dream!
The couple, Company Commander Guan and his wife, waited at home all night but no one came to their door, which made them even more anxious. They were thinking of asking two of their friends, older women, to help them out the next day, but they were called away by their superiors as soon as they got to the office.
When Company Commander Guan arrived at the leader's office, he saw Zhou Congsheng sitting on the sofa. The leader's face was somewhat dark, and Guan's heart skipped a beat.
Half an hour later, the two came out of the leader's office. Guan Lianchang was so angry that his face turned ashen. He looked at Zhou Congsheng and sneered.
"Hehehe... Young people are really hot-tempered, but I have to tell you, experience counts. Don't end up losing more than you gain!"
"Company Commander Guan, you don't need to warn me like that. I'm already being lenient by not producing the recording, but the reason you had the leadership mediate this time was entirely because of you."
"What?"
“Aunt Yang came to our house yesterday and talked nonsense in front of my parents. You dare to say that you didn’t do it? My father has seen all kinds of people over the years. If he were someone who couldn’t distinguish right from wrong, how could he have been transferred to Beijing? Company Commander Guan, you’re underestimating people too much.”
Company Commander Guan turned pale at what he said. When they returned from the supply and marketing cooperative yesterday, he paid special attention to Zhou Daoming and found that the man looked very honest and straightforward, and spoke as if he were a housewife.
That's why... I just didn't expect this old man to be so cunning.
"Company Commander Guan, my wife and I have no intention of causing trouble for anyone. We just want to live a peaceful life. As long as others don't make things difficult for me, I will never cause them any trouble."
Company Commander Guan observed him for a while, then sighed and nodded.
"Alright, but Captain Zhou, you're so young, with a bright future ahead of you. Wouldn't it be better if you married a woman of equal social standing? Why bother with a former educated youth..."
"Company Commander Guan, the fact that you can say such a thing only shows that you know nothing about my wife's abilities."
Company Commander Guan: "..."
You're so stylish!
On the sixth day of the Lunar New Year, a banquet was held in Shen Yuzhu's courtyard in Xiangyang Production Team. Shen Yuming, the bride's older sister, was busy entertaining guests, while Qiao Wangshu personally took charge of the banquet.
Liang Manxiu and Feng Zhengyang both took leave to come and help, and they invited quite a few guests.
Besides the brigade leader they met when they first arrived in the village, Zhang Ershun, Zhang Shuai and his family, some families who had helped Shen Yuzhu build her house, and several male educated youths from the village who had worked with them to catch spies, they also came to join in the fun.
To make the wedding more lively, Shen Yuming even found a local opera troupe to perform all night, thanks to Lü Guangzhi's connections.
The opera troupe was a legitimate organization, and they sang only positive and uplifting songs, so no one said anything.
The wedding was a lively affair. When Zhou Congsheng arrived in his car to pick up the guests, Lü Jianshe helped set off firecrackers.
Zhou Li stood in front of him and gently patted his shoulder. "Brother Jianshe, I didn't expect you to be such a flexible and magnanimous person. You've really grown up, watching the girl you like get into your rival's car."
"Get lost! My relationship with Shen Zhiqing is purely platonic. I'm not good enough for such a good female comrade. I think even Zhou Congsheng would have a hard time keeping her company. Hey, get out of my way! You have the nerve to talk to me like that? In front of Comrade Ren Liang, you're not even worth a piece of dog shit."
"Hehehe... You don't know this, do you? Manxiu now speaks to me for more than three sentences each time, and he won't tell me to get lost anymore."
Lü Jianshe: "......."
Shameless bastard, you good-for-nothing!
Shen Yuzhu wore a red dress, her long hair was styled in an updo, and a small red flower was tucked behind her ear. She looked beautiful, elegant, and graceful, captivating Zhou Congsheng.
"Zhuzhu, I've come to marry you!"
"Yes, you've come to marry me, Zhou Congsheng!"
The two of them stared at each other, their eyes overflowing with love, until their little heads leaned closer.
"Give me a kiss, give me a kiss, give me a kiss..."
"One hug is enough. There are so many people here. Can you shut up? This is my sister-in-law and brother's wedding day. Do you want your friends to wait until your brother and sister-in-law get married before making a fuss?"
Ren Baobei clapped her hands and squeezed against Zhao Yue, neither of them willing to give in, which made Shen Yuzhu burst out laughing.
"Ren Baobei, stop making a fuss." Ren Dayong quickly pulled her away when he saw that his sister had upset his sweetheart.
Ren Baobei is a troublemaker, but she is very smart. Ever since she came to the army and met her brother, she has keenly sensed that this damned guy has taken a liking to her nemesis.
So at this moment she was even less willing to listen to him. When she saw him reach out to grab her, she decisively turned her head and ran to the side to continue making a fuss.
Shen Yuzhu and Zhou Congsheng smiled, recited the quotations together, held a ceremony, and toasted the guests. Just as they were about to get into the car, they were suddenly stopped by someone.
Everyone looked and saw that it was Lin Wanwan, who had just returned from the farm yesterday.
"Happy wedding, Yuzhu. I didn't expect it to be such a coincidence. You're getting married right after I got back. It's such a pity that we didn't even have time to catch up."
"It's not a pity at all, we don't have any old stories to continue."
Lin Wanwan gave a bitter laugh, "Hehehe, yes, you don't have one, but I do. I still have a lot to say to you. I really didn't expect that we were both sent-down youth, but you became an officer's wife while I'm stuck in the mud. Look at me, aren't I a joke?"
