Siheyuan: I am Banggeng's uncle

Chapter 903: Pay a visit!

More than half an hour later, the motorcade slowly drove into Tongluoguxiang. The children who had been waiting in the alley saw the arrival of the motorcade. Some of them went to greet the motorcade, while others cheered and ran towards the courtyard, shouting happily, "The bride is here! The bride is here!"

Because all the children in the alley had come to watch the excitement, Banggeng instinctively slowed down to avoid hitting the children. Meanwhile, Er Mao and the others who had been sitting in the truck had jumped out of the vehicle early on, handing out candy to the children who had come to watch the excitement while directing traffic and preventing the children from crowding in front of the vehicle.

Because there were so many neighbors who came to see the bride, the journey, which should have only taken one or two minutes, took the motorcade five or six minutes to reach the courtyard house.

"Crack!"

The moment the jeep stopped, a deafening burst of firecrackers rang out at the entrance of the courtyard house.

Banggeng parked the car, quickly pushed open the driver's side door, strode to the passenger side, and said with a smile to Tang Yanling sitting in the passenger seat, "Yanling! Put your arms around my neck, and I'll carry you home!"

Upon hearing Banggeng's words, Tang Yanling saw the neighbors gathered at the entrance of the courtyard house through the car window. A shy expression immediately appeared on her fair face. She then reached out and put her arm around Banggeng's neck, letting him carry her into the courtyard house.

When Jia Dang, Jia Huaihua, Wu Anbang, Wu Anmin, Wu Andong, Jia Anjing, and Wu Anqing, the siblings, saw Bang Geng carrying Tang Yanling into the courtyard, their faces all lit up with happy smiles. They led the way, shouting, "The bride is here! The bride is here!"

Soon, Banggeng carried Tang Yanling to the central courtyard. However, this time Banggeng did not carry Tang Yanling through the gate of the other courtyard, but went directly through the gate of the Jia family's old house.

Before the wedding date of Banggeng was set, Jia Dongming had already arranged for Master Lei to renovate the old house according to the layout of a two-bedroom, one-living room house in later generations.

Walking through the main door, you enter the living room. On the wall hangs a picture of a great man, and in front of the picture is a horizontal table with a brand-new television set on it.

On the other side of the living room, there was a long sofa, next to which was a brand-new refrigerator. Near the front door, there was a women's bicycle with a red ribbon tied to it.

As for Banggeng's new room, the bedding on the bed was all the four-piece set used for weddings in later generations. Directly opposite the bed to the door was a dressing table with some cosmetics on it.

The Tang family followed Bang Geng into the main room and immediately noticed that the house had undergone a complete transformation since their visit last week. Not only were all the furniture new, but there were also large appliances such as a television and a refrigerator. This scene undoubtedly surprised Tang Jiansheng and his wife, and they were also happy that their daughter had married into such a family.

Tang Guobin, with his wife and children, followed Tang Jiansheng's family into the house. When the couple saw the furnishings, they were both shocked. Tang Guobin's wife said to him with envy, "Honey! Your cousin's in-laws are so well-off! Look at that TV, it's definitely more than twelve inches. And that appliance next to the sofa, it must be the legendary refrigerator. If we could have appliances like that, I'd be willing to live a few years less."

Tang Guoping was shocked and envious when he saw the furnishings in Banggeng's house. Thinking of what had happened at Tang Jiansheng's house, Tang Guoping cursed inwardly with annoyance: "Dad is really something. Everything was fine, so why did he have to cause such a scene when my cousin's husband was getting married? If he hadn't caused that scene, with my cousin's husband's family's wealth, even a small amount of money would have been enough for our family to live a good life."

At this moment, the happiest person in the Tang family was undoubtedly Tang Guoqiang. His brother-in-law had promised him that after his sister married him, he could stay at his brother-in-law's house for a few days. Now, seeing the television set on the table in the main room and imagining watching TV every day when he visited his brother-in-law's house, Tang Guoqiang's face immediately lit up with anticipation. Soon, the wedding ceremony began under the guidance of the master of ceremonies. First, the bride and groom sang "The East Is Red" together and recited two quotations from the Little Red Book. Then, the couple knelt down to pay their respects to Jia Zhangshi and offered her tea.

When Jia Zhangshi saw her grandson and granddaughter-in-law kneeling before her, she accepted the tea offered by her granddaughter-in-law, which made her so happy that the wrinkles on her face smoothed out in a smile, radiating endless warmth and joy.

Madam Jia brought the tea to her lips, took a small sip, and then immediately took out the red envelopes that Jia Dongming had prepared for her in advance from her pocket. She handed them to Banggeng and Tang Yanling, who were kneeling in front of her, and said happily, "Banggeng! Yanling! These are red envelopes from Grandma. I hope that you two young people can give Grandma a big, fat great-grandson soon!"

When Banggeng and Tang Yanling saw the red envelope handed over by Jia Zhangshi, they immediately reached out and accepted it from her hands, saying in unison, "Thank you, Grandma!"

After Banggeng and his wife served tea to Jia Zhangshi, it was Qin Huairu's turn. Banggeng looked at Qin Huairu sitting in the chair, and knelt down with Tang Yanling in front of her, obediently saying, "Mom! Yanling and I kowtow to you! You've worked so hard all these years, and we will definitely take good care of you in the future!"

Upon hearing Banggeng's words, Qin Huairu was so grateful that tears streamed down her face. She wiped her tears with her sleeve, then took the teacup from Tang Yanling, took a small sip, and then took out the red envelope she had prepared beforehand. With great emotion, she said to Banggeng and Tang Yanling, "Banggeng! Yanling! I hope that from today onwards, you two will be happy and live a long and fulfilling life together."

Upon hearing Qin Huairu's words, Bang Geng and Tang Yanling reached out and took the red envelope from Qin Huairu's hand, expressing their gratitude to her in unison.

After Qin Huairu got up, Jia Dongming and Lin Qiuyue were pulled to sit down. Bang Geng looked at Jia Dongming and Lin Qiuyue sitting in front of him and thought about the changes in their Jia family after Jia Dongming returned. He was sincerely grateful to Jia Dongming.

After Banggeng pulled Tang Yanling to kneel down, he bowed three times to Jia Dongming with a grateful expression before saying, "Uncle! You have worked hard all these years. Without your guidance, I, Jia Geng, would not be who I am today. I will remember your and Aunt's kindness to me for the rest of my life."

After hearing Banggeng's words, Jia Dongming waited until Banggeng and his wife had served them tea before instructing Lin Qiuyue, who was sitting to the side, "Wife! Bring out the gifts we prepared for the couple!"

Upon hearing Jia Dongming's instructions, Lin Qiuyue immediately picked up the box placed to the side and said with a smile to Banggeng and his wife, "Banggeng! Yanling! This is a pair of couple watches that your uncle asked someone to buy for you. Here, your uncle and I wish you to join hands and create the most beautiful picture of your life together, and may sweetness forever remain in your hearts."

Upon hearing Lin Qiuyue's words, Jia Dongming took out a men's watch from the box and put it on Banggeng's wrist. After Lin Qiuyue helped Tang Yanling put on her watch as well, he jokingly said to Banggeng and Tang Yanling, "Banggeng! Yanling! I won't say any more words of blessing. What I want to say now is that I hope you two will work hard from today onwards and strive to fulfill your grandmother's wish as soon as possible, and to continue the Jia family line!"

Banggeng never expected that his uncle and aunt would prepare such a big surprise for them. He glanced at his watch and said to Jia Dongming with gratitude, "Uncle! Don't worry! I promise to work hard and try to make my grandma's wish come true as soon as possible."

Tang Yanling was extremely pleased with the gifts that Jia Dongming and his wife had given them, because she knew that the watch on her wrist was no ordinary watch. When she heard the promise that Bang Geng had made to Jia Dongming, Tang Yanling's face flushed red, and she thanked them shyly, saying, "Thank you, Uncle! Thank you, Aunt!"

Tang Yanling's best friends were shocked by the Jia family's wealth the moment they stepped into the Jia family home. When they saw the wedding gifts that Jia Dongming and his wife gave to Bang Geng and his wife, their eyes were filled with envy.
