Zhou Yanfeng suggested to He Ting: "If anyone in the team has leftover tiles from building a house, we can give them some money to get them back."
"Speaking of flipping tiles, we've never done this before. If you don't step firmly on the roof, it's no joke if you flip it over."
Zhou Yanfeng promised: "I will go and find out who has leftover tiles, and then find you a fellow villager who can flip tiles. Tomorrow I will go to your clinic and do the work in the two rooms."
"I'll pay for the renovation, so I have to show some appreciation for your marriage."
"But are you really going to move in with your childhood sweetheart?"
His brother Ting got married at a young age, and Zhou Yanfeng felt very sorry: "In the past, there were so many girls chasing after you in the compound. The most beautiful one, Feng Shishi, followed you as a little follower. When you came to Xiangyang Brigade, the female educated youths at the educated youth point were also interested in you and showed their affection to you openly and secretly."
"You are such a suave and elegant man, and you just got married so casually. I always feel that you two are not a good match. Brother Ting, you are a flower stuck in cow dung..."
Zhou Yanfeng kept chattering beside him, and He Ting, who was carrying something behind him, kicked him.
Just two steps away from the brigade clinic, He Ting warned him with a cold face: "Lu Baiwei and I got the marriage certificate today."
"No matter why we got married, she is now my wife, He Ting, and your sister-in-law, Zhou Yanfeng."
"Yes, brother. You have to respect her."
"If you don't respect my wife, you are looking down on me, He Ting. Zhou Yanfeng, we will not have any contact from now on."
He Ting looked very serious, even a little harsh, and it didn't seem like he was joking.
Look, they just got the marriage certificate, and they’re protecting it like crazy.
It turns out that his brother Ting is a hidden wife-protecting maniac!
"Brother Ting, don't worry, I was just kidding. Look at my bald mouth."
He Ting was angry, and Zhou Yanfeng was panicked: "Brother Ting, I was wrong, I was really wrong."
"If I dare to tease my sister-in-law again, you don't have to punish me. I'll just jump into the river to cool off."
"Brother Ting, don't be angry, I am just bull shit, okay!"
Zhou Yanfeng did not hesitate to make fun of himself and promised that he would absolutely respect Lu Baiwei in the future. Only then did the anger on He Ting's face dissipate a little, and his terrifying aura was restrained.
Seeing He Ting like this, Zhou Yanfeng, who was anxious, tired and sweating, finally breathed a sigh of relief.
He warned himself in his heart that Lu Baiwei would be his big sister from now on, and he must not say anything to offend her in front of Lu Baiwei, otherwise he and Brother Ting would be in trouble as brothers.
So when Zhou Yanfeng carried the things to the brigade clinic, he was like a mouse seeing a cat when he saw Lu Baiwei.
As soon as he put the things down, he obediently called Lu Baiwei "sister-in-law".
"Zhou Zhiqing, thank you for your hard work in helping to move things."
Lu Baiwei placed the bowl and chopsticks on the table and called him: "Thank you for running all the way here. Come and have a meal with us!"
As soon as he entered the room, Zhou Yanfeng smelled the fragrance of fish soup on the table.
The aroma made him salivate.
But facing his brother Ting's cold face, Zhou Yanfeng waved his hands: "No, no, the educated youth center has left some food for me."
Seeing that Zhou Yanfeng behaved well in front of Lu Baiwei, He Ting finally stopped arguing with him about his nonsense.
He called out to Zhou Yanfeng: "Eat what I told you to eat, why are you wasting time talking?"
Smelling the tempting aroma of the fish soup, Zhou Yanfeng changed his mind: "Well, let's eat some!"
Tang Yunling brought over a lot of fish soup, enough for a large clay pot, and there were some extra for each person to eat.
Lu Baiwei scooped out three bowls, then took a bowl and put the corn tortillas on the table.
The fish soup stewed with perilla has perfectly removed the fishy smell, leaving only the fresh and fragrant taste of the fish soup. One sip of it will make you feel comfortable all over.
Zhou Yanfeng took only one sip and was conquered by the delicious fish soup.
"Sister-in-law, you are such a good cook."
The female educated youth at the educated youth point cooked and frying dishes. They were very frugal and reluctant to use oil, but they were lucky enough that the food was well cooked.
It's rare to eat meat after coming to Xiangyang Brigade, let alone such delicious fish soup.
Her brother Ting will have a good time in the future, so she is a little envious. Why?
Zhou Yanfeng, who was conquered by the fish soup, was very shameless.
"Sister-in-law, you will be my sister-in-law from now on."
Zhou Yanfeng asked shamelessly: "Can I come and have a meal for a few days?"
Even Lu Baiwei was amused by him!
He Ting looked at it with disdain: "The fish soup was not cooked by Weiwei, and you don't need to think about it. Weiwei and I just moved here, where did the fish soup come from?"
"Oh, no?"
Zhou Yanfeng asked, "Who cooked it?"
"My third aunt cooked it. Today she took my cousin to the next brigade to fish. She knew that He Ting and I had just moved in and couldn't cook, so she stewed this pot of fish soup and sent it to me."
Only then did Zhou Yanfeng realize that the team leader Tang Jinghe was Lu Baiwei's cousin.
The captain's wife is a really good cook.
It wasn't cooked by Lu Baiwei, Zhou Yanfeng felt a little regretful.
He asked Lu Baiwei: "Sister-in-law, does your third aunt need a nephew?"
This brother He Ting is quite funny and humorous.
Lu Baiwei was amused by him again: "I can make this fish soup, and you can eat it again tomorrow."
When Lu Baiwei said she wanted to stew the fish, she was not lying to Zhou Yanfeng.
There must be a wedding banquet for the marriage, and her uncles and people from He Ting’s Youth League Office must be invited.
It is the busy farming season now.
The brigade has just harvested the first crop of rice and has been plowing the fields these days, waiting to plant the second wave of rice.
Lu Baiwei's original plan was to help the team plant rice after turning over the tiles, and then hold her wedding banquet with He Ting.
Her uncle came with a ladder and finished the work soon, so why not hold the wedding in advance during the one or two days before transplanting rice?
After seeing Zhou Yanfeng off after dinner, Lu Baiwei suggested holding a wedding banquet.
"After the team finishes planting rice, I want to go up the mountain. Then I have to pass the barefoot doctor exam as soon as possible. I have a lot to do."
Lu Baiwei discussed with He Ting: "What I mean is, we should take advantage of the time when the brigade is busy with farming and hold a wedding banquet tomorrow. Invite my uncles and the people from your educated youth camp to have a meal."
"My cousin told me today that her uncle's team caught a lot of fish at the dam. It's hard to get meat tickets, but fish can be bought. Just let my aunt go there."
"Fish is cheap, only a few cents per pound."
He Ting understood.
His wife wanted to take advantage of the opportunity to get fish at a few cents per pound and hold the wedding banquet.
Fish is also meat, so you can save a lot of money.
How come he married a wife who loves to help him save money?
It is true that he married Lu Baiwei without having the time to explain to her uncles.
He came over without saying a word and helped to turn over the tile.
Marrying Lu Baiwei and holding a wedding banquet is a matter of attitude, and this banquet must be held as soon as possible.
"You can't just eat fish, you have to have a bowl of pork dish too."
He Ting agreed to hold the wedding banquet tomorrow: "I still have a lot of meat coupons saved up. I will go to the supply and marketing cooperative tomorrow and buy a few pounds of meat for the banquet."
