Chapter 144: Giving birth to a daughter? Okay, I'm your father's future in-law.

It seemed that after getting married, Chen Pingping became mature and sensible in the blink of an eye.

"Pingping, Pingping, where are you going?" The groom didn't understand what was going on. When he saw the bride suddenly running out to see the guests off, he called out twice and hurriedly followed her out.

From a distance, Wang Ziru could clearly see her sister-in-law holding paper-wrapped wedding candies in her arms.

Relatives who come to the village for the wedding banquet will take away a bag of wedding candy when they leave. The bag usually contains wedding candy brought by the bride's family, such as rice candy, popcorn, or fried small twisted dough sticks and other snacks.

Han Dixing turned around and looked at the bride and groom running towards them one after the other, a little suspicious, "What is your brother doing?"

Here, Wang Ziru, who was standing in front of Han Dixing, had no time to praise her brother's wife.

Chen Pingping rushed to Han Dixing holding the wedding candy and said breathlessly:

"Chief Han, I'm really sorry today. Zonghao was confused at the time and gave everyone the candy and mung bean cake in your lunch box as wedding candy. This is our wedding candy, please don't reject it."

Wang Ziru was shocked. Seeing her brother chasing after her, she looked unhappy. "Zong Hao, what were you doing in Qinglong Village?"

Han Dixing saw Wang Ziru acting like a sister and chuckled, "It's okay. I bought the candy and mung bean cakes for the kids, and they just happened to like them..."

Wang Zonghao knew he was in the wrong, so he scratched his head and smiled thickly, "I'll buy you a pound of candy when I get my salary."

These words were said to Han Dixing.

Han Dixing admired this point. This guy did not shirk responsibility even after doing something wrong.

"No need. I'll accept this bag of candy from the bride and take it back for my family to share your joy." Han Dixing was very polite. He took the candy with both hands, turned around, got into the car and left.

The brother and sister stood there and watched the jeep drive out of the village before turning back.

Along the way, Wang Ziru wanted to warn her brother, "When you work in the county in the future, don't be like you did today, always asking for revenge."

"You have been working in the county for a few days. You know how important connections are in the county. The circle in the county is only a small one. Those famous people know each other. Unlike in the village, there are not many interests between each other. That doesn't allow you to show off in Qinglong Village like you did today."

"Han Dixing came to support you today and gave you 20 yuan. You two should be grateful for this great favor."

"He owed me 20 yuan for a favor?" Wang Zonghao was extremely surprised.

I thought that guy was just offering 10 bucks as a token of his appreciation, but I didn't expect the Han family to treat the Wang family as a relative.

After a pause, Wang Zonghao resumed his playful smile, "Sister, you gave me 30 yuan for my wedding, so you owed me an even bigger favor by doing so to my brother-in-law."

"Hush! You little brat, keep your voice down. Your sister squeezed out the living expenses from her pockets, and your brother-in-law doesn't even know about it..." Wang Ziru of course wanted to make the matter sound very serious.

On the one hand, the man had been studying in a military academy for several years, and the army only gave him 28 yuan in living allowance every month.

So I really can’t afford the money for my brother’s wedding.

On the other hand, when my younger brother got married, no matter how many favors he had to pay, the couple must have discussed the excuses at home, so that his wife's family wouldn't gossip about him behind his back because they thought he was too ungrateful.

Fortunately, the man said that when he returned to the army, his salary would be paid according to the rank of deputy regiment commander, which would be more than 70 yuan per month.

After deducting his living expenses in the army cafeteria, he could get about 50 yuan.

Otherwise, Wang Ziru would never be so generous as to save face for her parents' family.

Chen Pingping was extremely happy and secretly calculated how many favors the Wang family could receive at this wedding.

"Sister, you know what my parents mean. Maybe in the next two days, after we clean up the house, we will separate the family. Then you and your brother-in-law can come back." Chen Pingping said very assertively.

Wang Ziru looked at her sister-in-law, then at her brother, and said earnestly, "Although it is too early to separate the family, you two must listen to your parents' arrangements. This time, if the Wang family borrowed the debt for Zong Hao's marriage, you can't let your eldest brother and sister-in-law pay it back."

Wang Zonghao opened his mouth, but finally had to admit it.

"Also, Pingping, now that you're married into the Wang family, you're my sister-in-law. As your elder sister, I'm saying some things for your own good. When the family is divided, your parents shouldn't get involved. After all, this is the Wang family's family affair, and it has nothing to do with the Chen family." Wang Ziru warned her sister-in-law very firmly.

"Oh..." Chen Pingping bit her lip and had to agree.

The young couple knew what was going on and realized that the elder sister's skills were extraordinary.

If you offend my sister, don't even think about relying on her to get ahead in the future.

In the afternoon, after the wedding banquet at both grooms' families, relatives left one after another carrying bags of wedding candies.

The only ones left at the groom's house were the village women who had been hired to help. They were still clearing the dishes, washing the dishes, and then returning the tables and chairs to their respective homes. This was the daily routine on the afternoon of the wedding banquet.

There were also a small number of close relatives sitting in the fire room with the groom's relatives, chatting and waiting for dinner.

The groom's good friends even arranged a bridal chamber entertainment for him that night.

Zhang Kang specifically asked Zhai Ximo to go through the formalities at his father-in-law's home in Longwang Village to avoid gossip from the Wang family, and then brought his wife and children to Zhang's house to enjoy the wedding candy and have fun.

"Dad, Mom, let's go to Zhang's house now. After all, Zhang Kang is an old comrade-in-arms of Baoer's father." When Wang Ziru saw the man coming to pick them up, she hurried out of the fire room and found her parents to explain.

Wang Dongsheng was in a good mood that day, and he and Lin Xiuying both wanted their daughter and grandson to go to the Zhang family to congratulate them.

"You should go! Zong Hao is a rash kid. When you go to the Zhang family, say hello to the adults there..." After all, Wang Dongsheng is the head of the family. Normally, he would greet the adults of the Zhang family when he met them in the town. Today, the Zhang family must be uncomfortable with their youngest son causing such a commotion.

Lin Xiuying looked at her handsome son-in-law with a smile and asked, "Go sit for a while and come back for dinner."

"Mom, it's rare for Zhang Kang to come back to his hometown to visit his relatives, so today we invited many old classmates from junior high school and many comrades-in-arms. We'll have dinner there. After dinner, we'll play for a while and then go home." Zhai Ximo explained with a smile.

These words were made very clear, and the father-in-law and mother-in-law would not blame the couple.

"Then..." Lin Xiuying frowned, "It would be a bad idea for you to bring wedding candy with you to Zhang's house now. Let your brother bring you two bags of wedding candy tomorrow."

"It's okay, we can eat it anytime we come back."

After the family of three finished talking with their parents, they went to greet several relatives and clan members in the fire room. It was rare for the relatives to see such a handsome and steady son-in-law of the Wang family, so they all followed them out to see them off.

Wang Zonghao was playing cards with a group of friends. When he heard that his sister was going to Zhang's house to congratulate them, he looked unhappy.

Sitting at the card table, holding a cigarette in his mouth, he waved his hand and said, "Oh, if you want to go, go ahead! After breakfast tomorrow, I will go to your house to give you wedding candy."

Suddenly, a group of young men who were playing poker around a square table in the stone house started to make fun of the situation.

"Hey, Zonghao, can you get up tomorrow morning if you sleep with a new quilt?"

"Even if you want to get up early, Ping Ping may not be able to help you."

"Hahaha... Zonghao will also be disciplined by Pingping one day."

Bao Er seemed to have telepathy. Even after being carried out of the Wang family yard by his grandfather, he refused to let go, and his little arms tightly hugged his grandfather's neck.

Seeing this, Lin Xiuying went over and took the little grandson with a smile, "Bao'er still can't bear to leave grandpa, has your grandpa not spanked you for a long time?"

"Grandpa doesn't spank children." Baoer said with a smile.

Zhai Ximo looked at the time on his watch and said, "Dad, Mom, it's getting late. If we go over here like this, the Zhang family might be ready to have a feast."

"You guys go slow, come back and play in two days." Wang Dongsheng had tears in his eyes.

All three of my children are finally married.

I felt a little reluctant as I watched my son-in-law leave with my daughter and little grandson.

When I reached Zhang's house in one breath, the Zhang family was already preparing dinner.

The guests who stayed at Zhang's house at night, apart from a few relatives from Zhang Kang's grandmother's family, were all his old junior high school classmates and comrades-in-arms.

Everyone finally met Zhai Ximo's wife and children. Those comrades who were also wearing military uniforms vied to come over and hug the baby of the Zhai family.

Zhang Kang came out of the bridal chamber, smiling broadly, and shouted, "Sister-in-law, you are here. We have been waiting for you and your son."

"Congratulations, Zhang Kang."

"Thank you, sister-in-law." Zhang Kang immediately bowed to express his gratitude and invited Wang Ziru to go to the bridal chamber to chat with the bride.

In the new house, besides the bride, there was also Zhang Kang's sister.

This was the first time the two met each other, and because Zhai Ximo almost got married through a blind date with Zhang Kang's sister, the two women looked a little embarrassed.

"Sister Ziru! You're here. Where's Baoer? Bring him in to eat some wedding candy." Zhu Yan, dressed in a bright red wedding gown, sat on the wedding bed which was covered with eight colorful wedding quilts. She quickly stood up and responded.

Zhang Kang finally snatched the little baby of the Zhai family from an old comrade-in-arms and brought him to a new house.

"Bao Er, do you think Aunt Zhu Yan will give birth to a girl or a boy next year?"

Wang Ziru laughed, "You really treat your child as a Bodhisattva."

"He is a man who speaks his mind directly." Zhu Yan said with a red face.

Bao Er opened her clear eyes, looked up at the adults, took the red egg that Zhu Yan stuffed into her hands, and said childishly, "Give birth to a girl."

"Ah? A girl doll?"

"Okay, okay! My daughter is the best. When my daughter grows up, Uncle Zhang will become your father's in-law. Hahaha..."

The Zhang family's house is more lively at night than at noon.

After dinner, Zhang Kang's old classmates and comrades-in-arms "carefully" prepared a wedding night entertainment for the couple - the newlyweds biting apples.

The program is simple but full of challenges.

Tie an apple with a rope and place it between the bride and groom. They bite it together, and whoever bites more will be the boss.

Whether he can be the boss is another matter, but he can raise the atmosphere of the night to the highest level.

"Old Zhai, I heard that you and your sister-in-law didn't get to eat the apple when you got married, right? No matter what, tonight, we will make sure that Zhang Kang doesn't get to eat the apple either! It all depends on how steady your hands are." An old comrade handed a red apple picked up with a wooden stick to Zhai Ximo, and asked him to hold the stick while letting the newlyweds eat the apple.

"Yes! With so many of us, we must make sure that Zhang Kang can no longer be the head of the family, just like you can no longer be the head of the family after you get married, hahahaha..."
