Chapter 18
On the 28th, the sky was blue and cloudy, and firecrackers rang out incessantly in the residential building. Children sifted through the debris, searching for duds. Then, using their hands, they piled the flaming powder into long strips, ignited them with matches, and with a whoosh, a golden dragon of fire shot forward.
□□ had not yet burned out, but the groom had already returned with his bride.
Xu Shanshan's parents' home was too far away, so after careful consideration, Peng Shuya arranged for her to marry from the nearest hotel. Fang Zhiwen decorated the hotel a day in advance, with red ribbons stretching from the first floor to the second, and the rooms were fully stocked with fruit plates, cakes, and a children's bucket.
Fang Zhiwen carried Xu Shanshan upstairs and walked through the door, where he was greeted by the congratulations of neighbors and relatives. Even the Fang family's grandparents were beaming with smiles, and Fang Youqing, Xu Shanshan's younger sister-in-law who had returned from Shanghai, praised her profusely.
Ever since everyone knew that Xu Shanshan's coming to the city was planned by Fang Zhiwen, when everyone looked at their relationship again, they no longer felt that Xu Shanshan was not worthy of Fang Zhiwen.
They all lamented Fang Zhiwen's cunningness, saying he would do anything to win over Zhou Kai. Some even privately discussed that Fang Zhiwen had secretly arranged Zhou Kai's marriage to Liu Xin.
All in all, with Fang Zhiwen's methods, Xu Shanshan could not escape.
Fang Zhiwen accepted all the rumors.
Sun Yuemei touched her sister-in-law's arm and said, "What's going on with the Fang family? Why are there so many infatuated people?"
Her second son, Fang Yuan, was also a failure. Not having married Liu Qingqing, he had given up on himself and decided to become a country boy. Even though his family had arranged a marriage for him, he refused to return to the city.
When Sun Yuemei thought of this, she felt so angry that her liver ached.
Fortunately, Fang Zhiwen foolishly married a village girl, and now even the smooth road paved by his father has been cut off. Whenever she thinks of this, she feels happy.
Fang Youqing, however, looked Xu Shanshan over. She was wearing a red one-piece dress with a lotus leaf collar, a black belt cinching her waist, and a pleated skirt that reached her calves. She wore a pair of silver stilettos fastened with pearl-patterned clasps. Her hair was slightly curly, and her face, barely the size of a palm, was delicate and fair. A sidelong smile made her look particularly charming and affectionate.
With such a rare beauty, it’s no wonder her nephew went to such great lengths to win her over.
As for Fang Yuan from my second sister-in-law's family, he is a fool. Liu Qingqing cannot compare to Xu Shanshan.
If it were Zhiwen, Liu Qingqing would never have the chance to marry someone else.
Fang Zhiwen didn't care what others thought. He locked the door of the bridal chamber and suddenly hugged Xu Shanshan in his arms, so tightly that their bodies were almost airtight.
Xu Shanshan buried her head in his arms, her chest beating non-stop, but she whispered: "Zhiwen, hold me tighter."
Fang Zhiwen tightened his arms, almost wanting to rub Xu Shanshan into his bones and blood.
This feeling of being cherished is really addictive. Xu Shanshan never knew that someone's arms could be so comfortable and safe.
Xu Shanshan looked up at Fang Zhiwen, only to see that his eyes were full of her.
"Wife," Fang Zhiwen sighed softly, and then lowered his head to face his long-cherished dream. The gentle man turned out to be like a hungry tiger. Xu Shanshan's heart trembled, her legs could hardly stand, and she relied entirely on Fang Zhiwen.
There was a knock on the door. The cousins were joking outside, but the two people inside the room could not hear anything. All they could hear was each other's breathing, heartbeats, and the sound of each other's lips and tongues entwining.
Fang Zhiwen hugged his wife, and his heart finally settled down.
Zhou Kai had been defeated by him, and he would never have to worry again in this life.
There were loud knocks on the door, and Xu Shanshan woke up from her drowsiness. She quickly jumped out of Fang Zhiwen's arms, blushing and saying, "Stop rushing us. Let's go out."
Fang Zhiwen rubbed Xu Shanshan's face and neck for a while before saying, "Let's go and have a toast."
At the same time, Qian Fang and Zhou Liguo tied Zhou Kai up at home, fearing that he would suddenly go crazy and ruin Fang Zhiwen and Xu Shanshan's wedding.
The old couple were really scared by Fang Zhiwen.
Although the main reason was that his son was incompetent, one thing led to another and his son fell into the trap he had dug, which was really frightening.
Thinking about the large sum of money her family had to pay back this morning, Qian Fang felt angry.
It turned out that Zhou Kai had borrowed money from someone to bribe him. The man said nicely at the time that they were good friends and there was no rush to pay him back, but he turned around and brought a group of scoundrels to collect the debt.
Zhou Kai sat in the corner with a gloomy face, not saying a word. Liu Xin hugged her son Wang Hai and said to him, "Zhou Kai, let's get a divorce."
Liu Xin married him because he looked good and was a college student.
I didn't expect this guy to be such a complete idiot.
Zhou Kai looked up at Liu Xin and said sinisterly, "Did Fang Zhiwen arrange this blind date for you and me?"
Liu Xin sneered, "If you think so, then so be it. Not only that, Fang Zhiwen forced you to go with me to get the marriage certificate."
Zhou Kai choked and said after a long while: "Divorce is fine, but you have to compensate me."
"What? Zhou Kai, do you still have any shame? Compensation? Ha, I didn't say you were a marriage fraud, which is good enough."
"So what? It's you who wants a divorce, not me. It's you who's anxious, not me."
"Really? Then let's see who's the more anxious one." Liu Xin rushed over and beat Zhou Kai up. Zhou Liguo and Qian Fang hated them to death, but there was nothing they could do about them.
On this side, Qian Fang and Zhou Liguo hurriedly tried to stop the fight, tears streaming down their faces in anger.
On the other side, Peng Shuya and Fang Yuanzhou took the young couple around to toast and laugh.
Over here, Zhou Kai and Liu Xin were wrestling on the ground, rolling around for several rounds. Over there, Fang Zhiwen and Xu Shanshan were happily drinking from their wedding cups.
Zhou Kai and Liu Xin quarreled all night, and Fang Zhiwen and Xu Shanshan also quarreled all night.
The next morning, Xu Shanshan rubbed her broken waist, thinking that what her elder and second sisters said was not entirely right. They said that it would be fine after half an hour. It was a lie. She endured it for most of the night, and started to endure it again in the morning. She bit her lower lip so hard that it was broken, and then she was held down and licked violently.
Xu Shanshan felt that Fang Zhiwen must have been a dog in his previous life.
Love licking too much.
If Xu Shanshan didn't have to go to work, she doubted she would be able to leave the room today. Even as she was getting dressed, Fang Zhiwen clung to her like a big puppy, rubbing his chin against her shoulder again and again, and said in a low voice, "Honey, we have three days of wedding leave."
"I asked Team Leader Yan, and I don't necessarily need to take the three-day wedding leave now. I figured since there's nothing much going on at home right now, it's better to save it for when I need it."
"Besides, didn't Lina say that mushrooms and chestnuts would arrive by car today? You have important things to do too, so don't delay."
Fang Zhiwen took a deep breath at his wife's shoulder and said, "Okay, I'll listen to you."
Xu Shanshan blushed and sighed softly. After leaving the house, she shook her dizzy head and repeatedly reminded herself in her heart that she must work hard and not waste the job that Fang Zhiwen gave her.
......
Xu Shanshan went to the factory carrying the wedding candy. Team Leader Yan pulled her aside and said, "The technical department of the factory is organizing a training course. Do you want to attend?"
"I'll join in."
Seeing her eyes light up, Team Leader Yan smiled and said, "I knew you'd want to join. Come on, sign here."
Xu Shanshan signed and prepared to return to her workstation, but Team Leader Yan pulled her back and said, "Qin Xiang, our quality inspector, has gone home to give birth. You should do the quality inspection work during this time."
"I?"
"Well, you're the only one in our group with a 100% pass rate, and you're also meticulous and steady in your work. I don't trust anyone else except you."
Among the employees in this group, except Xu Shanshan, Qin Sisi came the latest. She has only been working for 3 years. But even so, this girl has become a seasoned expert.
Thinking of this, Team Leader Yan felt that Xu Shanshan was even more precious. Furthermore, since her younger brother Yan Liang was following Fang Zhiwen to earn extra money, she naturally wanted to take good care of Xu Shanshan.
The work of quality inspection is definitely more comfortable than that of operator.
On the other side, Fang Zhiwen brought Jiang Wen and Yan Liang back with the goods. Yan Liang winked and teased, "Brother Zhiwen, you are not good enough. Tsk tsk, you let your sister-in-law go to work on the first day of your marriage, tsk tsk tsk."
Fang Zhiwen was so angry that he pushed a bag of chestnuts onto his shoulder and snorted coldly, "You know shit, that's just your sister-in-law making progress."
Since his wife is so ambitious, he, as a man, cannot fall behind.
When the people in the staff building saw Fang Zhiwen bringing back a lot of mushrooms and chestnuts, they took out their rice-washing baskets and asked everyone to buy some, and they eventually sold two sacks of them.
"Brother, I'm starting to want to be self-employed."
"No, if you really become a self-employed person, your mother will curse me to death behind my back. I know you want to make money, so I'll let you sell chestnuts and mushrooms part-time. When the time comes, just give me 10% of the interest. After all, I have to repay my sister's favor."
"Brother, this is your business, how can we be so embarrassed?"
"There's nothing to be embarrassed about. I found a new job." If it weren't for helping Sister Xu Shanshan and the others, Fang Zhiwen would not have done this business.
"Brother, what kind of work?" Yan Liang asked curiously.
"It's not ready yet. I'll tell you later." In the new society, the most profitable thing is definitely electronic products. Of course, even if Fang Zhiwen was a reborn person, he couldn't afford high-end products like mobile phones.
But it's easy to upgrade existing electronics.
It's not a rare item; it's the favorite radio of unemployed young people these days. With the tape playing and bell-bottoms on, you're the coolest guy on the street.
There was a very difficult accessory to make, but by chance, Yang Jian could actually make it himself.
As a result, Fang Zhiwen recruited Yang Jian to join the gang.
Yang Jian was not valued at home. As a student, he had to pay for food during the summer vacation. If he delayed paying for one day, his brother and sister-in-law would throw his bedding out of the building.
As soon as Fang Zhiwen mentioned making money, he immediately agreed.
Yang Jian thought that even if he didn't make money, he was willing to help Xu Shanshan's husband.
The business of Li Zi and Junzi was transferred to a good brother. Fang Zhiwen went to find Yang Jian in the afternoon. The two of them rode their bikes to various scrap collection stations and brought back a lot of second-hand materials, which was like looking for a needle in a haystack.
