They also gave each of the men watching a celebratory cigarette.
"I'm so sorry, congratulations!"
Everyone originally just wanted to come and join in the fun, but they didn't expect to get wedding candy and cigarettes.
They were all overjoyed, spouting a whole bunch of auspicious words.
Just then, the courtyard gate suddenly creaked open.
Everyone was prepared to be made to face difficulties.
Unexpectedly, when the door opened, they were greeted by a group of people smiling more brightly than morning glories.
Just as everyone was looking at each other in bewilderment, the other side shouted in unison.
"Hello, son-in-law!"
Then, without saying a word, they ushered everyone inside.
It's called welcoming, but it's really no different from dragging someone away.
This sudden turn of events left everyone bewildered. As they entered the courtyard, their eyes were filled with confusion and unease.
Seeing that everyone was standing in the yard, Uncle Zhong quickly smiled and led them into the living room.

Third Uncle patted him on the shoulder, "Sisi has changed her clothes, you can go in now."
Huo Tingzhou pursed his lips and stood still.
He remembered his wife telling him before that she might symbolically block the door at that time.
Just a token gesture.
He even prepared the red envelope.
Third Uncle smiled and shook his head. He had already said what needed to be said that day, and the boy had made his promise.
Moreover, this is the gateway to happiness for the young couple; why would he block this on their joyous occasion?
"There are too many people today, so I won't entertain you. You should go in quickly and not keep Sisi waiting too long."
Having said that, Huo Tingzhou couldn't refuse. "Thank you, Third Uncle."
After giving another military salute, he took a deep breath and pushed open the door.
