Looking at the two newlyweds, who were passionately reading quotations under their portraits, Ye Zhiqiu glanced at Feng Xiaomei standing next to them. She was smiling and seemed a little envious.
When singing red songs, it is not just the bride and groom who sing, but everyone applauds and sings together.
It was repeated in every living room, and the whole house was filled with applause, clapping and collective singing.
So after four times, He Yongjun and the others had hoarse voices, but they were still smiling!
Ye Zhiqiu also heard Feng Xiaomei singing for the first time. Her voice was clear and melodious. Everyone clapped and sang together, starting with "The East is Red" and singing three songs in a row.
The wedding banquet was very successful because Ma Ziqiang and He Dashan, their old leaders, expressed high praise for the separate-meal banquet, saying that it was a symbol of equality and unity for all.
Just as the old leader finished praising us, several people came uninvited!
However, after He Dashan helped a leader out, the group of people who were originally furious wiped their sweat and said that they had received a report and saw that there was no big wedding banquet, but separate meals.
They wiped the sweat off their foreheads and said it was all a misunderstanding. A group of people fled in disgrace! So Ye Zhiqiu didn't see it as a big show, but just a child's play!
As for the subsequent results, I believe that the outcome was already determined by the old leader’s unhappy expression!
Because Ye Zhiqiu was assigned to the He family, he came to Guan Shan with his glass raised and said, "Grandpa Guan, we are really destined to meet! I really didn't expect that we could meet like this in such a vast sea of people. I must toast you with some old wine!"
One cup is not enough to calm my excitement, and two cups are not enough to settle this fate. I must toast you three cups. Grandma Sun will definitely not let you drink more, so please feel free to drink as much as you want!
As soon as Ye Zhiqiu finished speaking, he drank a glass of wine, and then poured two glasses in succession and drank them all in one gulp.
Everyone here cheered, and Guan Shan said happily: "Then I will have a drink with you, Xiaoye. Your grandma Sun didn't just forbid you to drink! The doctor clearly didn't say to quit smoking, she lied to me and asked me to quit.
Now he's trying to trick me into quitting drinking. It's so hard to be a man! I'm already retired, and the only pleasure I have left is drinking and smoking, and I'm being tricked into quitting!
Ye Zhiqiu remembered that time when he met him on the roadside and forgot that he couldn't smoke, so he lit a cigarette for him!
So Grandma Sun lied to him about not being able to smoke?
But Ye Zhiqiu couldn't say that, so he jokingly said, "Hey, Grandma Sun, that's for your health! If quitting smoking and drinking wasn't good for your health, why would she be such a bad person and trick you into quitting after all these years? Don't you agree?"
"That's right. I'm an old man, and I'm not someone who doesn't understand things. So, if I'm angry, I have to hold it in. I can't take it out on people who are doing me a good thing..."
Ye Zhiqiu toasted everyone around to let the people sitting there see his alcohol tolerance. There were more than 20 people sitting around, and none of them fell behind, which drew cheers from the whole room!
After toasting the He family, he naturally couldn't show favoritism to one and neglect the other, so Ye Zhiqiu apologized and prepared to walk towards the Ma family to toast there as well.
When he came in, Feng Xiaomei saw that his face was red. Thinking that he had drunk a lot of alcohol, she quickly stood up and tried to help him.
Whether Ye Zhiqiu drinks two taels or two catties, his face will turn red, but it will not have any effect.
But if a beautiful woman supports you, you will be drunk even if you are not intoxicated! Feng Xiaomei's soft hands, coupled with the fact that she was wearing thin clothes due to the hot weather, made you feel her warmth even when she was close to you. Ye Zhiqiu was really a little drunk and dizzy at this time.
"Are you okay? Your face is so red. If you can't drink, don't drink so much. It's not good for your health!"
It was the first time that Ye Zhiqiu heard Feng Xiaomei speak such a long speech to him without any stumbling. He felt extremely happy both physically and mentally.
He leaned close to her ear, and his voice was filled with the hot smell of alcohol, which made Feng Xiaomei's ears a little itchy.
Ye Zhiqiu whispered, "Don't worry. Everyone here might get drunk, but I won't get drunk with my alcohol tolerance. So don't worry about me. Just eat well. You'll know how much I can drink when you see me toasting you."
Ye Zhiqiu felt that he could no longer control himself, so he quickly got away without letting Feng Xiaomei support him.
The people sitting on the Ma family's side were all Ma Ziqiang's comrades-in-arms and leaders. Even some of Ma Banghua's friends, and even Feng Xiaomei were older than Ye Zhiqiu!
So he took the wine glass and came to the old leader Ma Ziqiang, showing a bright smile and said: "Leader, my name is Ye Zhiqiu, a good friend of the groom Ma Banghua. I often heard Uncle Ma talk about you and the time when you commanded the troops to fight the Japanese invaders.
As the youngest person here, I must toast you. First, I toast you as an elder. Second, I toast you for defending our country. Third, I toast you for being a hero. Without heroes like you, we wouldn't have the good life we have today, much less good days like today!
As soon as Ye Zhiqiu finished speaking, Ma Ziqiang was very happy with what he said and immediately took the lead in cheering and applauding.
So Ye Zhiqiu drank three glasses in a row amidst applause and cheers. The old leader was also very happy. He smiled and said, "Talents emerge in every generation. Comrade Xiao Ye is very good. It's just that I'm old and the doctor doesn't allow me to drink too much, so I'll have a drink with you!"
Ye Zhiqiu quickly bent down and said, "Of course I should. Health is the capital of revolution! The fact that you, the leader, are drinking this glass of wine with me is enough for me to brag about for years! How lucky I am to be able to drink with a great hero like you!"
After a long round of applause, Ye Zhiqiu toasted everyone. However, he naturally couldn't toast three times to the rest of the people, so he toasted one cup at a time.
But this drinking method was a bit shocking to everyone, considering that this was an eight-cent cup. There were nearly thirty people here, and even Feng Xiaomei, who drank soda, was toasted by him.
At least three kilograms of wine was drunk like this. Feng Xiaomei became anxious and wanted to get up to help Ye Zhiqiu. She was really worried that he would get drunk after drinking so much.
However, although Ye Zhiqiu's face was red, his eyes were clear and he didn't look drunk at all.
Ma Ziqiang's comrades here were all stunned, so some curious people started to toast back, to see when Ye Zhiqiu would fall down!
Ye Zhiqiu wasn't afraid of this! After all, he had the cheating space, and his alcohol tolerance was not bad, so it was impossible for him to get drunk!
So he drank no matter who toasted him, and the more he drank, the more he drank, and the cheers kept coming, making the guests from the He family unable to sit still!
Someone was itching to come over here, and then there was a big fight, with people toasting each other!
Ma Banghua was about to vomit after drinking so much. He pulled Ye Zhiqiu aside and asked, "Brother, can you drink more? I really can't take it anymore, but there's still one family that hasn't gone in to toast..."
