Courtyard House: Drunk and barging into the Xu family's house, I woke up numb.

"Who says you can't go to the bridal chamber when you're drunk? Besides, didn't Sha Zhu go to the bridal chamber a long time ago?"

Upon hearing this, everyone burst into laughter. He Yuzhu wasn't too angry; he knew that they weren't mocking him, but rather ridiculing him.

He bowed to the crowd.

"Dear elders and brothers, today is a joyous day for me, please give me some face."

"It's fine to say this to my face, but when Qin Huairu comes later, please don't mention it. She's shy."

“If any of you scare away the wife I finally managed to marry, I’ll go and stay at her house.”

Is Qin Huairu thin-skinned?

Would someone with thin skin really go to the vegetable cellar and sleep with a man they've been set up with on a blind date?

That being said, today is, after all, their big day. They came to enjoy the feast, not to cause trouble.

As the saying goes, "He who takes a bribe is bound to be grateful, and he who eats another's food is obligated to him."

Since we're already here, let's leave other grudges for tomorrow. Today is the day the bride and groom are the most important.

"Alright, Zhu Zi, everyone was just joking with you. Hurry up and change your clothes and invite Huai Ru over."

He Yuzhu responded and went out the door. He had already taken his clothes to the Jia family. Now that everyone was sitting at the He family's house, he naturally had to go to the Jia family's house to change his clothes.

Nowadays, weddings have simplified the old customs of bowing to heaven and earth, and the process has become very simple.

After changing clothes, the newlyweds enter the venue, bow to the elders, offer tea, and say some opening remarks and polite words. After the banquet begins, they go from table to table to offer toasts and say some polite words.

He Yuzhu went to the Jia family's house and ran to the inner room to change his clothes. Qin Huairu straightened his collar.

"I told you to invite Cao Xu, did you invite him?"

He Yuzhu nodded.

"I asked him to come, but he was on the night shift yesterday and no one was home when I went there."

“He just got off work, so I went to the backyard to invite him myself, but he hasn’t come yet, and his seat is still empty.”

Qin Huairu gave her instructions.

"Go and see him later, and make sure he comes to this banquet."

"As long as he drinks this wedding wine, our past issues will be considered closed, and the factory won't be able to say anything about it then."

He Yuzhu laughed.

"Are you trying to shut him up with a glass of wedding wine?"

Qin Huairu said.

"If we can shut him up, I'll offer him not just one cup of wine, but ten cups without hesitation."

"You should know that as long as he doesn't speak up, the security department won't report it to higher authorities, and I'll be fine."

He Yuzhu said.

"Today, Rainwater published a notice in the newspaper that he was severing ties with me, which is like trapping us both."

“The steel mill will definitely come to you to find out what happened. I can tell that Cao Xu didn’t want to make a big deal out of this.”

"Once the rain was published in the newspaper, the matter could no longer be kept secret, which was tantamount to betraying Cao Xu."

"If you still let him cover for us now, he'll probably be the one to suffer the consequences later."

Qin Huairu said.

"The newspaper is usually delivered to the factory leaders' offices at nine o'clock, and Cao Xu hands over his shift at eight o'clock."

"Therefore, he must not have seen today's newspaper."

“I never intended for him to cover for us, and he wouldn’t help us cover for us either.”

"But as long as he comes today and drinks this wedding wine, he will at least say a few words that are in our favor."

Qin Huairu's plan was quite good, but she made one major mistake: she didn't know that Cao Xu had a habit of buying newspapers.

After Cao Xu came to this world, he lost his cell phone, computer, and game console, which greatly reduced his enjoyment.

Listening to the radio and reading newspapers became his new sources of enjoyment, which he used to learn about society and entertain himself.

He Yuzhu didn't ask any more questions, but as he was about to leave, he suddenly asked.

"Where's Bang Geng? I haven't seen him all morning?"

Qin Huairu straightened her clothes in front of the mirror.

“He went out to play. I’ve been busy with the wedding these past two days and haven’t had time to pay attention to him. He’s having a blast.”

"I bet this time he'll be hanging out with those kids in the alley again, either setting off firecrackers or making a mess."

"Don't worry about him, he'll come back for dinner when he's tired of playing."

He Yuzhu nodded and walked out of the house, muttering to himself.

"That shouldn't be the case. This kid is always more eager than anyone else to attend banquets, so why is he playing around like this today?"

Qin Huairu left the house and followed He Yuzhu's steps. At this moment, she saw Cao Xu enter the middle courtyard from the front yard.

"Section Chief Cao, you're back just in time. The banquet is about to start, come join us."

Cao Xu looked at the two dressed in their finest attire and shook his head.

"Gentlemen, do you still have time for this formality and pretense?"

Qin Huairu tugged at He Yuzhu's arm and asked softly.

"Section Chief Cao, what do you mean by that?"

Cao Xu said.

"What else does that mean? Banggeng is outside making you two hang up your shoes, criticize you, and parade you around in public."

Qin Huairu was taken aback upon hearing this, and she looked at Cao Xu in disbelief and asked.

"Section Chief Cao, I didn't hear you clearly just now, could you repeat it?"

Cao Xu heard footsteps behind him and spoke to Qin Huairu in front of him.

"I don't need to say anything, just see for yourselves."

Qin Huairu's eyes instantly reddened when she saw Bang Geng walking into the courtyard.

She didn't care that she was wearing new clothes and went up to grab Banggeng's shoulder.

"Banggeng, what's wrong with you? Tell Mom, what happened?"

He Yuzhu was also extremely angry when he saw Bang Geng's tattered and swollen face. He stepped forward and asked.

"Bang Geng, tell your stupid dad who did this to you. I'm going to kill him!"

Bang Geng was deeply traumatized and on the verge of collapse. He Yuzhu's words "stupid father" directly triggered his sensitive nerves.

He broke free from Qin Huairu's grasp and shoved He Yuzhu, who was standing next to her.

"You pervert, don't touch my mom!"

As far as Bang Geng is concerned, he felt that Qin Huairu had not had any problems before, at least there was no evidence of it, and the problem only arose with He Yuzhu.

It was because He Yuzhu slept with his mother before getting married that his mother was branded as a womanizer.

That's why he was publicly criticized and humiliated in front of everyone.

Caught completely off guard, He Yuzhu was pushed squarely by the stick and fell directly into the yard without paying attention.

Qin Huairu was also somewhat angry when she saw Sha Zhu being pushed down by Bang Geng.

"Bang Geng, what are you doing?"

"If you have something to say, say it. Why are you resorting to violence?"

As they were talking, Qin Huairu went to help He Yuzhu, and Xiao Dang ran over as well.

"Dad, are you alright?"

Bang Geng was devastated when he heard his sister call Sha Zhu "Silly Dad".

"Xiao Dang, what did you call him?"

Although Xiao Dang found her brother quite frightening, she still told the truth.

"Silly Dad, Uncle Silly and Mom's wedding banquet is all set up, of course we should call him Silly Dad?"

Banggeng grabbed his hair with both hands and gave it a good ruffled tug.

"He's not my dad. My dad is Jia Dongxu, not Sha Zhu. He's just a scoundrel named Ming!"

Qin Huairu stood up and slapped Bang Geng across the face.

"You brat, what nonsense are you spouting? You want a beating, don't you!"

Bang Geng covered his face and looked at Qin Huairu in disbelief.

"Mom, you hit me! You actually hit me for some random guy who harassed you?"
