Chapter 148 Marriage
Little New Year.
The weather was very good and the sun warmed the whole yard.
Huang Ling and Zhou Huaiyi invited their closest relatives and friends to their home for lunch and to attend their simple wedding.
Unexpectedly, the number of people who came exceeded expectations.
Fortunately, they had experience in repairing houses and prepared food in advance.
There were two round tables at home, but they were not enough to seat them, so the two of them went to Chief Feng's house to borrow a round table.
Just when things were getting busy, someone from the security guard office called and said that someone was at the gate looking for Zhou Huaiyi.
Zhou Huaiyi thought they were here to congratulate him, so he asked them to register and let them in without thinking, because this was not the first time.
When he arrived at the hospital, Zhou Huaiyi's face changed.
He walked out and closed the gate behind him.
Huang Ling wanted to stand up, but her aunt held her down: "Xiao Yi can go, you can eat quickly!"
She sat down obediently, but did not look away.
Zhou Huaiyi walked up to Xie Huihui.
"Brother-in-law." Xie Huihui called out.
“Xiao Xie, if you are here to congratulate me, please come in and have a drink. If it is something else, let Shen Sibo come to me himself. What kind of man is it to push a woman in front.”
Xie Huihui's husband, Shen Sibo, is the younger brother of Zhou Huaiyi's late wife, Shen Siyan.
With just one sentence, all the prepared remarks of Xie Huihui and her husband were silenced.
"I......"
"You know where this is. If you want to cause trouble, I suggest you do it outside the area. It will be better for you. I think you know the area!"
Xie Huihui clenched her fists.
“Besides, if you make a fuss, then I won’t be polite. Think about whether Shen Sibo can save you or whether he will save you.”
Xie Huihui hurriedly shook her head: "I'm not trying to make a scene, I'm here to congratulate my brother-in-law."
"Okay, thank you. After fifteen, let him come find me himself."
"Okay, brother-in-law, I'm leaving now."
Zhou Huaiyi nodded slightly, watched Xie Huihui leave, and then returned to the yard.
As soon as I entered the yard, I met Huang Ling's gaze.
Huang Ling smiled at him and gave him a trusting and confident look, and Zhou Huaiyi breathed a sigh of relief.
She was truly fearless, and he loved that about her.
After the meal, some people said goodbye, and the remaining few comrades who were closest to Zhou Huaiyi helped to clean up, wash dishes and clean the place.
Huang Ling didn't even have a chance to get started.
She said to Zhou Huailan, "This is the first time I've seen people coming to a banquet helping with housework."
"They do this every time. The land has to... well, it's started. They have to brush off a layer of the ground." Zhou Huailan pursed her lips.
After the tables and chairs in the yard were moved away and put away, a few people began to sweep the floor, not even sparing the flower beds.
"Well, let's treat them to a meal every month! And do some house cleaning for us at the same time." Huang Ling made the decision.
"Hahahahaha, my dear sister-in-law, you want to pluck the feathers of even the passing geese, right?"
"Hey, don't say that, comradeship!"
Zhou Huaiyi passed by and said to the two of them, "Why are you standing here in the cold wind? Go inside and warm yourself by the fire."
It was indeed okay, so Huang Ling pulled Zhou Huailan to the storage room to help her uncle pack the dried bacon and sausages, preparing to take them back as gifts to the comrades who had helped clean up the "battlefield" in the end.
Auntie and Huang's mother were chatting happily by the brazier, while Xiaoting sat on the side eating pine nuts.
Huang's father and Huang Ling's cousin Huang Xiuyuan were playing chess in the corner of the room.
Tuanan and Pengfei had just finished their meal and asked their comrades who were going home to help send the food back.
Aunt Huang said to Huang's mother, "Before Xiaoyi changed his job, the three of us used to celebrate the New Year together: me, his uncle, and Xiaolan. After he came back, it's been the four of us now. This year is the most lively one yet."
Huang's mother patted her hands and said, "Next year you can go to Changzhou to celebrate the New Year. It will be more lively there."
My aunt suddenly had an idea: "Mother-in-law, why don't you come to our town and play for a few days and then come back on the 29th. There's a big fair in our town these next two days, hosted by the town, and it's going to be really lively! Invite Huailan and Xiaoting."
As soon as the aunt said this, Huang's mother immediately understood what she meant.
"That's too much trouble for you..."
"It's not a trouble! Not a trouble at all! Xiaoting and Huailan sleep in one room, and you and your father-in-law sleep in Xiaoyi's room. I hope you don't mind!" The environment at my aunt's house is also good.
"This..." Mother Huang looked at Father Huang. They didn't want to trouble others, but they also wanted to give the two newlyweds some time to themselves.
"That's it!" Auntie said. "Let's go and pack our things!"
When Zhou Huaiyi and Huang Ling came back after sending their comrades away, they were already standing in the yard, counting the number of people and preparing to go out.
"Wait a minute while we go shopping, I'll accompany you." Huang Ling asked.
Huang Xiuyuan showed Huang Ling the two handbags in his hands.
"Mom, my aunt invited us to her house!" Xiaoting answered crisply.
"This... Aunt, this is too troublesome..."
"No trouble, no trouble, don't say any more, it will delay our shuttle bus."
Zhou Huaiyi immediately said: "Then I'll take you there."
"No, no, Xiuyuan can just send us off!" Huang's mother also refused.
Huang Ling and Zhou Huaiyi looked at each other. These people had ignored them and left on their own.
"Come pick us up on the morning of the 29th," said his uncle, patting Zhou Huaiyi. "I still have to prepare New Year's dinner for the 30th!"
"I understand, uncle."
Zhou Huaiyi and Huang Ling sent them out of the yard and were then driven back.
When they reached the main road of the family compound, Huang's mother finally asked, "His aunt, who is the woman who came to see Huai Yi today..."
My aunt is also a straightforward person, so she told everyone Xie Huihui's identity.
Everyone's expression was the same. They were a little surprised at first, and then pretended nothing happened.
Zhou Huailan was afraid that everyone would misunderstand, so she explained: "It must be Shen Sibo who asked her to come. She called me once before and said that if my brother remarried, he would have to return my sister-in-law's house in Shanghai to him, saying that it belonged to the Shen family, but my sister-in-law had already said that this house would be given to my brother."
Huang Xiuyuan heard this and realized that it was within his area of expertise. So he continued:
"It depends on whether there is any evidence of ownership, such as any documents left behind. If there are no documents and the property is left by the other party's parents, he can really get a share." He was considerate and did not mention the word "will".
In fact, the two of them had chosen a date a month ago and got their marriage certificate in the presence of their family. Today they were just inviting everyone to dinner, but Huang Xiuyuan was still worried about the elders' taboos.
"What does Fourth Brother Huang do for a living? He seems to know a lot about this." Zhou Huailan asked curiously.
Huang's mother introduced him, "Xiuyuan works at the Judicial Bureau. He's a lawyer! His head is full of legal provisions, and he can recite them by heart. If Huailan has such problems in the future, just look for your fourth brother Huang."
"Oh, okay." Zhou Huailan raised her head and looked at Huang Xiuyuan.
"Don't worry about this, my in-laws. Xiaoyi is a child with his own ideas. He will handle it himself. At worst, we don't want it. It's not like we don't have a house. Xiaoyi won't argue with them, and he won't let them affect him and Xiaoling."
My aunt was very sure.
