Chapter 1294: Burning with Fury
He Dazhuang hugged Li Ye tightly, then complained with a smile: "Li Ye, your child is so big now, but you didn't send me a wedding invitation. We are classmates, but you didn't invite me to such a big event as your wedding. It's really not considerate of you."
“.”
Li Ye, who had just given He Dazhuang a polite response, almost cursed out "MMP".
Not to mention that he and He Dazhuang had no friendship, He Dazhuang was assigned to Golmud, Qing Province, 2,000 kilometers away from the capital. In the 1980s when transportation was inconvenient, wouldn't it be a hassle to send him an invitation?
Oh, by the way, when He Dazhuang got married two years ago, he wrote letters to inform all his classmates in Beijing.
Then no one went, but just sent their share of money.
But this time, He Dazhuang came to Chen Xiaoling's wedding. Li Ye wanted to say that what he just said was hypocritical courtesy, but it was difficult to say.
So Li Ye said calmly: "When I got married, we had just separated. You had to take a three-day and three-night train ride from Qing Province. I really couldn't bear to torment you!"
He Dazhuang said openly: "Look at what you said. We are classmates. Let alone three days and three nights, I will come for eight days and eight nights."
“.”
Sun Xianjin, who was standing next to him, saw He Dazhuang bragging and asked with a smile, "Hey, He Dazhuang, how did you get here this time? Did you take the train again?"
He Dazhuang said proudly: "No, I came here by plane. Since last year, I have been eligible to take a plane."
It was not until 1993 that the mainland abolished the requirement for a letter of introduction to purchase air tickets, so He Dazhuang was clearly showing off, "I am also at the department level."
Li Ye's classmates are scattered all over the country. Most of them have smooth work, but the one who was promoted to director level so quickly must be considered an outstanding one.
"Oh~"
Sun Xianjin showed an expression of "I see".
[If you really have to take a three-day and three-night train ride, you may not be able to come. ]
“Pah pah pah~”
Suddenly, firecrackers were heard outside, and everyone knew that the groom's wedding party had arrived.
"Xiaodou'er, go and block the door."
“.”
Xiaodouer came to the door happily and was the first to ask, "Give me the red envelope and open the door."
But after a few small red envelopes, Xiaodouer opened the door.
After all, asking for red envelopes at the door is just a small environment to create an atmosphere, and it is definitely not a good opportunity to make a fortune, so Li Ye had warned Xiao Douer in advance that he must not be greedy.
The groom was a very gentle man, said to be a young talent introduced to Chen Xiaoling by her leader. The two of them standing together looked very well matched.
"Alas~"
He Dazhuang suddenly sighed and whispered, "What a pity for Yang Ye! If Yang Ye had confessed to Xiao Ling earlier, maybe..."
Li Ye quickly pulled He Dazhuang aside and said sternly, "Dazhuang, don't say anything nonsense today."
When Li Ye graduated, he went to the station to see off his classmates. Yang Ye and He Dazhuang took the same train.
After the train started, Yang Ye suddenly leaned out of the window and shouted "I love you" to Chen Xiaoling. Unfortunately, Chen Xiaoling hesitated for a moment, and the two missed each other.
But no matter how regretful the two of them are, they shouldn't mention today.
"Hey, I just said it casually, no one else can hear it, but look at this groom, doesn't he look a lot like Yang Ye? Both are fair-skinned and well-mannered. Yang Ye hasn't gotten married yet!"
“.”
Li Ye suddenly felt that it was a mistake to let He Dazhuang come to attend Chen Xiaoling's wedding today.
During the following process, Li Ye stayed by He Dazhuang's side to prevent him from talking nonsense again.
Li Ye finally breathed a sigh of relief only after the bride was picked up and everyone arrived at the wedding banquet.
However, Li Ye was somewhat helpless about the location of holding the wedding banquet today.
People decades later would never have imagined that a wedding banquet could be held at KFC.
That’s right, it’s KFC, the restaurant that serves fried chicken, French fries and hamburgers.
The first KFC in mainland China opened in Beijing in the winter of 1987. It was positioned as a "high-end restaurant" from the moment it opened. In an era when the average wage per capita was more than 100 yuan, a person had to spend more than ten yuan to have a full meal.
This is equivalent to the standard of 400 to 500 per capita in later generations, which really proves the saying "Don't choose the right one, just choose the expensive one."
In 1990, a couple held their wedding on the second floor of KFC, and it was reported in the newspapers. Various newspapers and media reprinted the report, which raised the status of KFC and attracted many young people to follow suit.
So Chen Xiaoling's wedding can be considered to be in line with fashion.
But Li Ye looked at the table full of fried chicken and French fries and still found it hard to understand.
[How can I drink this wine? ]
But Li Ye was worrying too much.
Since graduation, we have had fewer and fewer opportunities to meet each other. Even for those classmates in Beijing, most of them only get together during the Spring Festival. In fact, since the year before last, Zhen Rongrong no longer likes to arrange it, so it is normal for us not to see each other for a year or two.
Even though they are brothers who live very close to each other but haven't seen each other for half a year, they can still drink half a pound of wine even if they are only eating two pickles.
Then, He Dazhuang got drunk.
"I'm telling you, when you get married, you should find someone who is of equal status, otherwise you won't have anything in common. If you only look at appearance and family background, I guarantee you'll end up quarreling every day. You won't be able to live like this."
“.”
He Dazhuang said a lot of gibberish. At first, everyone was confused and couldn't understand what he said, but later, the more they listened, the more they felt something was wrong.
So Pu Xianghe asked, "Da Zhuang, are you not living a happy life? I remember when you wrote to us, wasn't your sister-in-law a relative of your leader's family? Isn't this enough to be a good match?"
"Ah~~"
He Dazhuang sighed deeply and said regretfully, "What I mean by being well-matched is personal accomplishment. At that time, the leader was kind enough to introduce me to someone, and I was embarrassed to refuse his kindness. Who knew that it would be so hard to describe in words later on.
She is a junior high school student, but she always argues with me. When I talk to her about reason, she doesn’t understand at all.”
“.”
Li Ye suddenly felt his foot being stepped on.
He turned his head and met the eyes of his good brother Sun Xianjin.
It's all disgust.
You married your boss's relative, were quickly promoted to department level, and now you're dissatisfied with him?
Li Ye shook his head, poured a glass of Coke for Sun Xianjin, and signaled him to enjoy his drink and not talk.
But the next moment, he heard He Dazhuang crying, "Life is really unbearable, so we have to separate. Now I understand that when looking for a partner, I have to look for someone I know well. I won't suffer any loss if I know him well."
Pu Xianghe was shocked and asked, "Da Zhuang, are you getting divorced?"
He Dazhuang wiped his eyes and nodded aggrievedly.
“You.”
Pu Xianghe didn't know what to say.
We are all adults, who can't figure this out?
He Dazhuang wiped his tears, picked up his glass and said to everyone: "We are all old classmates, I am not afraid of being laughed at. We must look forward and live our lives. Please help me, please help me."
Pu Xianghe sucked his teeth and said helplessly: "We'll keep an eye out for you! But this kind of thing is hard to come by."
"Hahaha, yes, yes. It's a once in a lifetime opportunity."
He Dazhuang laughed and didn't feel embarrassed at all.
But when Li Ye followed his gaze, he was instantly filled with anger.
