At noon, Ma Dexiang didn't dare drink, fearing that he would be drunk and unable to entertain guests in the afternoon. But in the evening, he really let go and drank bowl after bowl, and he could fill himself up even without anyone toasting him.
Qi Jinzhou was also dragged along to drink. Besides his uncles and brothers from the steel plant who kept pulling him away, the people from Sihe Village also drank as soon as they saw him.
Even Lin Shugan, who had arrived on time with everyone from the steel plant to have dinner, had the audacity to toast his cousin's husband, followed closely by his two younger brothers and sisters, who all said they wanted to toast individually.
Lin Shuying blinked, feeling that she couldn't be left alone, and joined the queue.
The key point was that what they had in their bowls was soda, while what Qi Jinzhou had in his bowl was solid Zhuangyuanhong. And he'd already drunk almost two kilograms of rice wine. Yellow wine is the kind that doesn't show up when you drink it, but it has a strong aftertaste, the kind that can make you fall down with a gust of wind.
Seeing that Liuni and the other girls were about to line up, Sanni pointed a finger at them and said, "Why are you all just joining in the fun? Go eat!"
"Oh~ I'm protecting you now~"
The brothers from Qi Jinzhou's factory who were all around him started to make a fuss and insisted that Qi Jinzhou continue drinking.
He knew his alcohol tolerance, and even felt a little dizzy when he went to the bathroom just now. Qi Jinzhou looked at the wine bowl for a long time, then pretended to say "ouch" and leaned towards Sanni.
"Drunk, drunk~"
It was just that his acting was so bad that everyone laughed at him. But Sanni didn't care, she took Qi Jinzhou's wine bowl and put it on the table.
"Hey, he's drunk, don't force him to drink. Everyone, eat and drink well, we still have to go to work tomorrow!"
"Wow! Qi Jinzhou! You despicable little bastard, you're so great just because you have a wife!"
"That's right! That's right! Don't you dare pretend any more!"
"Jinzhou, you cunning fellow! You are not a good person at all!"
"Last time I got married, you were the one who took the lead and got me drunk! We even agreed that you would follow me when we got married!"
…
Qi Jinzhou didn't care. He felt a little relieved in his heart and followed Sanni into the house to hide.
How can I let you pour me with my love on my wedding day?
However, there is one bad thing about bungalows, which is that anyone can come and break through the window, especially when there are so many people in the yard.
Qi Jinzhou could only pretend to be drunk and fell on the bed. As he pretended, the alcohol really took effect and he fell asleep in a daze.
When he woke up again, the party had already ended. Even the tables, chairs, benches, pots and pans had been cleared away, and their belongings were returned to their respective homes.
Sanni was carrying a basin of water and a kettle in. When she saw him wake up and sit stupidly beside the bed, she glared at him.
"Are you awake? You drank so much just now, I thought you were going to sleep until tomorrow!"
Qi Jinzhou chuckled, "No, that won't do. How can I just sleep through my wedding night like this? That would be too unfair to you."
Sanni: !!! Hooligan!
Qi Jinzhou stood up and swayed a little. He pulled Sanni to steady himself. He couldn't help but curse those bastards in his heart.
"Why did you stand up?" Sanni quickly helped him sit back down and put the basin and kettle on the floor beside the bed.
"I thought you wouldn't wake up, so I got some water for you to clean up. Now that you're awake, you can clean yourself up."
After saying that, he was about to turn around and leave, but Qi Jinzhou pulled him back again, and this time he was pressed directly on his knees.
"I can't wipe it. I don't have the strength." Qi Jinzhou rested his chin on Sanni's shoulder, looking listless but actually speaking brightly.
"Actually, I'm awake, you can help me wipe it."
Sanni:!
"We got our marriage certificate the day before yesterday and had our wedding today. We're officially and covertly husband and wife, so why can't you help me wipe it off? Oh, right. Have you washed it? Do you want me to help you?"
Prosperity, democracy, civilization, harmony, freedom, equality, justice, rule of law, patriotism, dedication, integrity, and friendliness. Review: Be a human being. Prosperity, democracy, civilization, harmony, freedom, equality, justice, rule of law, patriotism, dedication, integrity, and friendliness.
The jade incense burner, the icy mat, the mandarin duck brocade, the powder melting and the fragrant sweat flowing onto the mountain pillow.
The night was silent, the newlyweds were overjoyed and sweet.
Congratulations!

Sanni’s wedding was like Shuying’s last moment of relaxation. After the wedding banquet, she returned to school and studied hard.
1985 was a very important year. Not only did the economy implement a dual-track system, but the college entrance examination also began to implement a dual-track system, and many college entrance examination policies were successively introduced.
But it's all the same to Lin Shuying.
She has passed the preliminary exam in April. Originally, there were nearly 400 students in her senior year, but after the preliminary exam, only 150 people were eligible to take the college entrance examination.
Seeing that the seats of their former classmates were empty, the remaining students inexplicably felt more pressure.
There was no need for the teacher to urge us, as everyone was reviewing frantically. In the corridor of the senior year, no other sounds could be heard except the voices of the teachers.
Lin Shugan was holding a sack and peeking at the door of Class 1, Grade 3. A boy was probably coming back from the toilet outside.
He walked quickly into the classroom, glanced at Lin Shugan quickly, and then walked back quickly.
When he passed by Lin Shuying's seat, he pointed at her table and said something without stopping.
"Lin Shuying, your brother is at the door."
Shuying was lying on the table studying the math questions from last year's college entrance examination. When she heard this, she looked up and saw Lin Shugan.
She put down her pen and walked out silently and quickly.
"Sister." Lin Shugan looked at his sister seriously, then seemed to be hesitant to speak.
Lin Shuying did not speak softly to her brother as usual, but said in a slightly hurried tone,
"Just tell me if you have something to say!" She had only solved half of the problem.
Lin Shugan swallowed the question he wanted to ask, "How long has it been since you washed your hair? It looks like it's clumped together," out of a strong desire to survive.
Instead, he picked up the sack and said,
"Mom asked me to bring you some summer clothes, and I think some cigarettes and stuff. Oh, and this month's food rations are all in there."
The last time Lin Shuying went back was on March 14, the day Sanni and Qi Jinzhou got married.
Today is May 6th, and she hasn't been home for almost two months. Lin Shu also brought her last month's food.
"Oh, yes, food. I forgot about it." Lin Shuying quickly took the bag. It seemed that the squad leader came to ask for food the day before yesterday.
As a result, he just listened perfunctorily and went to read after he finished speaking. Everyone also listened perfunctorily and were busy doing exercises.
Shuying took the bag and thought she was done, so she turned around and was about to go in, but was stopped by Shuchan again.
"Oh, sister, why are you in such a hurry? I haven't given you the food coupons yet!"
Lin Shuying: "...I have only two months until the college entrance exam. How can I not be anxious? You should hurry up!"
