Yan Jiecheng's hand was slapped hard by Yan Bugui, and then he stuffed all the candy into his pocket.
Fatty led Yu Li into the central courtyard, first to the Jia family. Qin Huairu had gone to work, and Banggeng had gone to school. Only Jia Zhangshi was at home with Xiaodang and Huaihua.
Madam Jia was also surprised to see them: "What's this?"
"Auntie, I'm getting married! I've come to give you some wedding candy. Let me introduce you, this is my wife, Yu Li."
With a beaming smile, Jia Zhangshi quickly took the candy and praised Yu Li a few times.
Seeing Xiao Dang and Huaihua staring at him expectantly, Fatty teased Xiao Dang, saying, "Quickly call her sister-in-law."
Little Dane called out sweetly, "Sister-in-law."
The fat man patted Xiao Dang's head, stuffed some wedding candy into her pocket, and said to Jia Zhangshi, "Auntie, we still have a few more families to visit, so we won't linger any longer."
As soon as they stepped out of the Jia family's gate, Jia Zhangshi dug the candy out of Xiao Dang's pocket. She dug and dug and dug inside the tiny pocket…
Then he put a piece in his own mouth and another in Huaihua's mouth, saying to Xiaodang, "Eat less candy, or you'll get cavities. Save these candies for Banggeng!"
Xiao Dang didn't say anything, but simply picked up a candy wrapper from the ground.
In the east wing, Yi Zhonghai was also not home. The fat man simply grabbed a handful of wedding candy for an old lady and that was it.
The main house belongs to Sha Zhu. (Passing by.)
Upon arriving at the backyard, they went to Xu Damao's house first. He was home, and Lou Xiao'e was also there. They were both surprised to see the fat man leading Yu Li in: "Well, well, you brought your wife back without a word!"
The fat man has lived in this courtyard for so long, and his closest relationship is actually with Xu Damao and his family.
There was no conflict of interest, and they didn't care about Fatty's monthly salary of 18.5 yuan. Plus, they had a common enemy, Sha Zhu, so they gradually got along.
Xu Damao grinned so hard his mustache stood up straight: "Brother, you have to be there when you have your banquet, I'll give you a gift!"
Lou Xiao'e also remembered: "By the way, Fatty, where are you planning to hold it?"
"It's in this courtyard. But not the room I'm living in now. It's the two empty rooms in the front yard and the east wing."
Xu Damao was taken aback: "You mean?"
The fat man nodded: "The real estate department allocated that house to me."
"..."
If Deputy Factory Director Li couldn't even afford a house, he wouldn't need to engage in such a power struggle with Factory Director Yang. However, he certainly wouldn't be that generous.
According to his original plan, he would wait until the fat man was officially hired before considering whether or not to give him the house.
Unfortunately, the fat man's performance at his father-in-law's house on the second day of the Lunar New Year was quite outstanding.
His father-in-law said to Deputy Factory Director Li, "Many of the leaders in important positions are from the Jiangnan region. I'm worried about how to get in touch with them. You should try to win over this fat man."
That's why Deputy Factory Director Li generously allocated the house directly to the fat man.
Lou Xiao'e asked the fat man, "How many tables are you planning to set up?"
Xu Damao interjected, "Just follow the rules. Set up a table in each of the front, middle, and back courtyards. Then set up another separate table in your room, inviting only people you are close to."
In fact, Xu Damao is a very traditional person.
For example, he is very familiar with these old traditions and rules; he is obsessed with having a son; and he firmly believes that it is not his fault, etc.
Xu Damao's suggestion was very pertinent, and the fat man readily accepted it: "Brother Damao and Sister-in-law Xiao'e will definitely be invited then."
Others like Master Wang, Aunt Pang, Old Zhao, Liu Lan... these are all people we need to invite.
Speaking of Liu Lan, the fat man hasn't dared to look her in the eye these past two days.
After hearing the news that Fatty had gotten married, Liu Lan became extremely depressed. The once talkative and chatty woman now barely utters a few words all day.
The way she looked at the fat man was incredibly resentful. However, she didn't do anything outrageous, and didn't even try to settle things with him alone!
After leaving Xu Damao's house, the fat man went to Liu Haizhong's house.
Uncle Erda also went to work, while Aunt Erda stayed at home with Liu Guangtian and Liu Guangfu.
The fat man explained his purpose and scattered wedding candies, which made the Liu family very happy. They were especially enthusiastic after hearing that the fat man planned to hold the banquet in the backyard at his house instead of the deaf old lady's house.
She looks exactly like the three old ladies.
As for the deaf old lady's house, never mind.
Upon arriving at the house in the rain, Yu Li looked around curiously: "It really doesn't look like a bachelor's house; it's tidy and clean."
The fat man scratched his head: "I have obsessive-compulsive disorder."
It was just a joke, but Yu Li was struck dumb. The fat man didn't hear her speak for a long time, and when he turned around, he was almost crying.
After a great deal of effort, the fat man finally explained to her that obsessive-compulsive disorder is an illness, but it's not an illness either; it doesn't require injections, medication, or surgery. If it does, it's chopping off both hands…
After figuring out that it was another new term invented by the fat guy to tease her, Yu Li stopped crying and laughed, playfully punching him twice to vent her anger.
The fat man had been lusting after her for a long time, so how could he possibly resist now? With a loud "woof," he captured Yu Li's lips and began a series of passionate kisses.
The two of them took brooms, mops, and rags to the east wing of the front yard, opened the door, and began cleaning.
The three women came over when they heard the commotion, and their eyes were practically gleaming with desire to kill someone!
Their family of six lives in a house just like Fatty's, so cramped they can barely move; but Fatty, on the other hand, lives in such a big house with Yu Li!
That's infuriating!
The fat man ignored her. Let him look; it wouldn't hurt him. He could just keep his temper in check.
Yu Li was in a state of excitement. This house was so big; no one else would be sharing it with her, and it wouldn't just be what others left over.
This is her home.
Yu Li burst forth with immense enthusiasm. The fat man barely lifted a finger; she did all the cleaning, inside and out, by herself.
This girl works just as hard as Chen Yan, and she's exceptionally good at it!
After cleaning up, Yu Li witnessed the fat man's amazing skills during the move.
Despite having so many things in the room, including many books, she didn't feel any strain at all.
It was as if the fat man had simply moved He Yushui's house into the east wing without leaving a trace.
If I remember correctly, there was an open copy of Hegel's book on the table.
Lou Xiao'e lent this book to Fatty. Yu Li wanted to pack it up, but Fatty said it was very precious. She didn't dare fold the corners, so she remembered the page numbers.
I never imagined that the number of pages back then is still the same number of pages on my desk now, and even the positions seem to be exactly the same!
