Xiao Su gave Wang Dabao a reproachful look, "You guys are always teasing me."
"Oh, really, no, Mom and I were just telling the truth." Wang Dabao laughed and grabbed an apple to eat. "You have no idea, all the old ladies in the yard say you're a fairy descended from heaven."
"real?"
Upon hearing the praise, Xiao Su immediately pouted, a hint of smugness appearing on her face.
After a while, the two rode their bicycles to the compound.
The courtyard was bustling with activity at the moment. Xu Damao, the projectionist, had quite a network of connections, and guests were coming and going.
Wearing a white shirt, Xu Damao was greeting guests with a smug look on his face. When he saw Wang Dabao and Xiao Su, Xu Damao's eyes lit up and he hurriedly came over. "Brother Dabao, you must have a lot to drink at noon. This must be your wife. She's really beautiful. After you finish drinking my wedding wine, it'll be my turn to drink yours."
"Da Mao, congratulations on your marriage!"
Wang Dabao chuckled, "Your wedding banquet is over, next time we'll have a full moon celebration."
Xu Damao grinned from ear to ear, "Thank you, thank you, Brother Dabao, I love listening to this."
Just then, Sha Zhu, who was about to go to the factory, walked up to them and said in a sarcastic tone, "Oh, this is quite a big operation. Don't worry, you might not be able to make ends meet in two or three months."
Xu Damao's expression changed, and he was about to lash out when Wang Dabao quickly smoothed things over, "Zhuzi, it's a joyous day, let's say something auspicious."
Sha Zhu snorted at Xu Damao, then looked at Wang Dabao and held up two fingers: "Brother Dabao, when you get married, I'll give at least this much as a wedding gift. Xu Damao, hah, he doesn't deserve it."
After saying that, he turned and left with a disdainful look.
Sha Zhu's words made Xu Damao gasp in anger: "That idiot, he just ruins my mood."
Wang Dabao comforted him, "Alright, ignore him. You're the star today, having fun is the most important thing."
Xu Damao took a deep breath and forced a smile, "Alright, Dabao, you and your wife stay here for now, I'll go check over there."
Wang Dabao nodded, and as soon as Xu Damao left, he immediately dragged Xiao Su home.
What's so interesting about getting married? It's nothing compared to going home to see your wife.
Wang Dabao had set up the stove nicely when he left in the morning, and now it was really warm when he brought Xiao Su into the house. He brewed a pot of tea, and the two of them sat facing each other by the stove, leisurely drinking tea.
Xiao Su was also daydreaming about her wedding, chattering away with Wang Dabao.
Just then, there was a sound at the door.
"Dabao, are you home?" It was Yan Bugui's voice.
Wang Dabao figured it out immediately: Old Yan hadn't seen him in the yard, and since his door wasn't locked, he must have come looking for him at home. Look how bored he is.
"Not here."
Wang Dabao tilted his head and called out towards the door.
Yan Bugui had nothing to do at the moment, so he wandered around hoping to find Wang Dabao to chat with, but no one was there. He wondered if Wang Dabao had gone home to rest, since lunch was just around the corner and he didn't want to oversleep at home.
The house was empty, and Yan Bugui was completely stumped.
"No, Da Bao, I was just worried that you might fall asleep and be late for the banquet. As long as you're still awake, that's fine. I'll be going now."
Yan Bugui didn't know if Wang Dabao was doing it on purpose or joking, but ever since he found out that Wang Dabao was the head of the security department, he felt that their relationship had taken a turn for the worse.
Sometimes, even if you want to get a good deal on DaBao, you have to think about it for a long time and eventually give up.
The door creaked open.
"It's Brother Yan, come in quickly."
Yan Bugui had already come down the steps when he heard the door open. He turned his head and saw Xiao Su.
"Oh, it's my sister-in-law! I didn't know you were here. If I had known, I would never have come knocking on the door. This is such a mess." Seeing that Xiao Su was quite nervous because of Yan Bugui, well, there was no way around it; this girl was just too beautiful.
"Well, sister-in-law, you should go in now. I won't disturb you two. As I just said, I'm just worried that Da Bao might fall asleep."
"Old Yan, come in quickly, your sister-in-law doesn't understand what you're saying." Wang Dabao's voice came from inside the house.
Yan Bugui hesitated for a moment, then looked at Xiao Su and said, "Then why don't I go in?"
"Brother Yan, come in."
Xiao Su smiled and stepped aside.
He lifted the curtain and entered the west room. "Oh my, Da Bao, your room is so warm. This is exactly what the textbooks describe as warm as spring."
Wang Dabao smiled and asked Yan Bugui to sit opposite him, while Xiao Su sat down next to Wang Dabao.
"Did you hear that, Susu? Old Yan is a cultured man. You should treat him with respect from now on."
"Come on, Da Bao, you're making fun of me in front of your sister-in-law." Yan Bugui was a little embarrassed by the teasing, picked up his teacup and took a sip. "This tea is really good."
"Okay, if you like it, you can take the rest of the packet."
As he spoke, Wang Dabao took out the remaining half-packet of tea from under the coffee table and handed it over, saying, "Just take it and drink it. Do you really think I'd move your potted plant for free?"
Yan Bugui was a little flattered. "I'm so sorry, then I won't stand on ceremony with you, Da Bao. I'll put it in my pocket first, so that when someone comes later, they won't be jealous."
As he spoke, Yan Bugui carefully put the tea leaves into his pocket.
Just as Yan Bugui finished setting things up, people actually came in from outside. The door wasn't closed, and Liu Haizhong and Yi Zhonghai arrived together.
"Da Bao, can Lao Yi and I come in?"
"Come on, Old Yan is with me."
You can't just walk into Section Chief Wang's house, even if the door is open. Liu Haizhong and Yi Zhonghai know the rules; they can joke and tease each other in the courtyard, but when it comes to serious matters, Wang Dabao won't mince words.
The two were also taken aback when they entered the house and saw Xiao Su. Although Xiao Su had been to the compound a few times, this was the first time they had seen her up close, and they were immediately amazed by her beauty.
Now Liu Haizhong finally understands why the older woman said Da Bao's wife was a fairy.
"Oh, my sister-in-law is here too."
Liu Haizhong looked like he shouldn't have come in. "We couldn't find Lao Yan, and when we looked this way, we saw the door was closed. We figured Lao Yan was here and came over for a stroll."
Wang Dabao stood up and offered his seat: "Alright, sit down quickly, have some tea, we'll be drinking Da Mao's wedding wine soon."
During this time, Liu Haizhong and Yan Bugui were the ones doing all the talking, while Yi Zhonghai listened on the side like a quail. His goal was to infiltrate this small group; even if he couldn't get in, it wouldn't matter if he stayed on the periphery.
In short, just make sure these people don't ostracize him, that's enough.
After a while, the group got up to eat.
Xu Damao set up eight tables, which was quite a grand display in the courtyard.
The wedding went very smoothly. When Qin Jingru saw Xiao Su during the toasting, she couldn't help but feel glad that she had given up early, otherwise she would never have been able to compete with her.
After a night of drinking, Wang Dabao was completely drunk, and Yan Bugui even crawled under the table.
Liu Haizhong and Yi Zhonghai were practically hugging each other, which surprised everyone. They had lived together for so many years and had never seen them get along so well.
Xiao Su helped Wang Dabao home, and the two went straight to bed.
