"Brother Jinzhou, you'll be a gigolo from now on."
"Yes, my wife may have done it."
…
Once this was said, the people behind him no longer had any taboos and started joking with Qi Jinzhou.
Qi Jinzhou was in a good mood today, and he wasn't angry no matter what you said. The atmosphere was particularly lively. When the adults heard this, they couldn't scold their children in person, so they could only roll their eyes at them.
Accompanied by the sound of gongs and drums, the wedding procession's boat stopped at the riverside pier behind the steel plant's staff quarters. A string of boats came down quickly, and people were already waiting there to greet them.
Sanni was wearing a bright red woolen coat today, which she had bought at a high price herself. She was wearing leather shoes given to her by her sixth sister, and she had a red flower on her head. She also put on lipstick with the help of her sisters. She looked particularly bright and charming, a look you don't usually see.
Qi Jinzhou was stunned when he leaned over the window and looked down. After a while, he stretched out his arms and waved downwards.
"Hey~ Sanni~ I'm here~"
In an instant, everyone upstairs and downstairs burst into laughter.
"I say, Jinzhou, if you were really a girl, you would be laughed to death now. You are so eager to get married!" Master Zhang stood far away and looked at his "half-son". He really wanted to pretend not to know him.
Qi Jinzhou nodded calmly, "That's right. I'm already 25, how can I not be eager to get married? All I think about day and night is being married off to my wife!"
"Brother Qi, this isn't about wanting to get married, it's clearly about lust, hahahahaha!"
"You're right. You're already 25 and you still have your own bed. How empty, lonely and cold it must be!"
"That's right, hehehe..."
Sanni walked into the room amidst the laughter, and for no reason, she wanted to glare at the man.
Unfortunately, Qi Jinzhou implemented his thinking as a son-in-law today and dressed himself up like a pretty boy.
His beard was completely shaved, as if he had had a haircut. His short black hair was parted in the middle and had a stiff styling. He wore a white shirt and black trousers, a red tie around his neck, and a rare red suit on top.
When he smiled, his eyes and eyebrows curved, and only the small scar on his left cheek reminded outsiders that he was not as harmless as he looked.
I guess I have to get that red suit custom-made. Which clothing store sells red suits? Qi Jinzhou is really serious about being a bride!
The uncles and aunts who had already prepared for the reception quickly brought out the still hot longan and egg sweet soup and gave each member of the wedding party a bowl. Since they didn't want to drink Xinglang wine, they still had to have some snacks as breakfast.
There was no such thing as any wedding-welcoming games at that time. After eating snacks, the two groups led by Cai Yinling and Lao Shi's wife began to direct people to move the dowry onto the boat first.
Qi Jinzhou actually prepared quite a bit of dowry for himself, including traditional foot basins, fire pots, rice cookers, and buckets for offspring, as well as watches, sewing machines, radios, washing machines, tape recorders, and even a large sofa.
There should have been a bicycle, but Ma Dexiang already had one the previous year, so he didn't buy another. He also dismantled the television that had been in his living room, packed it up, and put it in his dowry.
Everyone on Sanni's side was shocked. Qi Jinzhou was so rich! With so many things in Sihe Village, the conditions would surpass Lin Guoqing's family! Sanni was so lucky!
Sanni felt a bit troubled. In fact, she had discussed this matter with Qi Jinzhou before. What she meant was that Qi Jinzhou didn't need to buy too many things. She didn't have much savings, only a few hundred yuan. If Qi Jinzhou had more savings, it would be better for him to save some.
In the future, whether they want to raise children or start their own business, they will have to spend money, so there is no need to waste it on these face-saving projects.
Qi Jinzhou said that he was innocent. It was really not his intention to buy them. The uncles in the factory insisted on giving them to him. Except for the watch and the radio, which he bought himself, the rest were paid with the change from the factory director and the money collected by the uncles.
He said that he was going to "marry" to the countryside, and the living conditions would definitely not be as good as in the city, so he would have to bring these material things with him. They were Qi Jinzhou's family, so they should prepare these things for Qi Jinzhou!
In fact, at that time their factory director even got a refrigerator ticket and was going to move it back for him, but Qi Jinzhou refused to take it and gave up. Otherwise, there would probably be more things now!
Sanni: ...Should she treat Qi Jinzhou better in the future? After all, his family seems to be quite powerful...
Originally, they should have served tea to their parents, but Qi Jinzhou had no parents, so they asked Master Zhang and his wife to sit on the sofa, and Sanni and Qi Jinzhou knelt down to serve tea to them one by one.
With tears in her eyes, Mrs. Zhang drank the tea handed to her by Sanni and gave her a red envelope.
"Good boy, you must live a good life with Jinzhou in the future. This child has a hard life... It's not easy to be a son-in-law. You must treat him well..."
Then Master Zhang beside him said, "You're talking about something as easy as saying it's easy for someone's wife to make it."
Master Zhang rummaged around for a long time before finally finding his red envelope and stuffed it into Sanni's pocket. "Nizi, don't listen to your master's wife's nonsense. This guy isn't someone you can just bully. If he dares to bully you, tell me and I'll beat him up!"
Qi Jinzhou grinned, "How dare I..."
Sanni smiled and kowtowed to the two elders. Without any hesitation, she said frankly, "Don't worry, I will treat him well! No one can bully him except me!"
"good!"
The crowd burst into warm applause. This was the posture of someone coming to marry the groom!
"Hahahaha! Brother Jinzhou, you're done. You'll definitely be a henpecked husband from now on!"
"Sister-in-law is awesome! Defeat Qi Jinzhou!"
After the bride and groom have paid their respects to the Kitchen God and announced that someone in the family is getting married, the groom will start beating gongs and drums to urge the groom to get on the boat and get into the sedan chair. After beating the gong three times, the groom will give each person a bowl of glutinous rice balls.
After finishing his meal, Qi Jinzhou went downstairs and pretended to be "helped" by Cai Yinling and Lao Shi's wife into his "bridal sedan chair," which was actually a rattan chair with two bamboo sticks on each side and covered with a red wedding cloth. Paired with Qi Jinzhou's red suit, the festive look was eye-catching.
The four sedan bearers shouted "1! 2! 3!" and lifted the sedan chair with all their strength towards the riverbank. They parked it safely in the middle cabin of the sedan boat, and then both sides waved goodbye.
Qi Jinzhou was sitting in the sedan chair. Just when he was about to make a joke about his current situation, Lao Shi's wife covered his mouth with a finger.
"The bride is not allowed to speak after she gets into the sedan chair! She can only speak after she eats the dumplings in the bridal chamber!"
Qi Jinzhou: ...
Sanni finally couldn't hold it in and burst out laughing.
