Yan Bugui was currently in the room counting the gifts he received.
Most of the residents in the courtyard handed over two yuan, relatives and friends gave four yuan, and Li Donglai handed over ten yuan as a gift.
"Look, this old man is still very enlightened." Yan Bugui was so happy that he couldn't close his mouth from ear to ear.
The third aunt rolled her eyes and said, "When Li Donglai got married, didn't you also hand over ten yuan? Is there anything wrong with people returning the gift money?"
"What the hell do you, a woman, know? Now that Li Donglai is the director, he is a senior official. Logically speaking, he does not need to return the favor."
The third aunt said: "Li Donglai is not a leader like cousin Hongling, so he cannot do such unscrupulous things."
When it comes to Zhang Hongling's cousin, the third aunt has a lawsuit on her forehead.
After Zhang Shunde came to Yan's house, he arrogantly made a few small requests.
First of all, after Zhang Hongling and Yan Jiecheng got married, Yan Jiecheng's salary book had to be handed over to Zhang Hongling.
Also, Zhang Hongling is relatively weak and needs to supplement her nutrition. She has to eat an egg in the morning, noon and evening every day, and eat one meal of meat every week.
These two requirements are unacceptable to the Yan family.
Take the first one as an example. When Yan Jiecheng worked in the steel rolling mill, his salary book was always in the hands of Yan Bugui. Yan Bugui had to deduct the expenses for raising Yan Jiecheng over the years before returning the salary book to Yan Jiecheng.
More than half of it had already been deducted, but who would have thought that Yan Jiecheng got into the bureau for framing Li Donglai. Although he was quickly released because of Li Donglai's generosity, he was still fined twenty yuan. Of course, the money will still have to be paid.
Count it on Yan Jiecheng's debt.
As for the second request, it is even more nonsense. What kind of family can eat an egg every meal now?
At that time, Yan Bugui declined Zhang Shunde on the grounds of limited family conditions, and said that as long as Zhang Hongling married, their family would definitely treat Zhang Hongling well.
Yan Bugui originally thought that the concessions he had made were enough, but who would have thought that Zhang Shunde turned his back.
He said that if the Yan family did not meet his demands, he would take Zhang Hongling and leave the Yan family immediately.
Now it was Yan Bugui's turn to be caught blind.
Now that the wedding banquet has begun, relatives and friends are here. If the new wife runs away, the Yan family will be in great disgrace.
There was really no other way, so Yan Bugui could only agree to Zhang Shunde's request.
I originally thought that I would just let it go for the time being. As long as the two of them held a wedding ceremony, things would be easier to handle in the future.
However, Zhang Shunde took out a prenuptial agreement that had been drawn up long ago and asked Yan Jiecheng and Yan Bugui to sign it.
The agreement was still printed with ink, and the terms above were very detailed.
Yan Bugui didn't know whether this thing would be effective in court, but if he signed it and wanted to regret it, Zhang Hongling would definitely use this as an argument.
When the time came to go to the street office, Zhang Hongling took out the agreement, and the Yan family ignored it.
However, if the agreement is not signed, Zhang Shunde will take Zhang Hongling away this time and make the Yan family embarrassed in front of their relatives and friends.
Yan Bugui had no choice but to grit his teeth and sign the agreement.
Thinking of this now, Yan Bugui was so angry that he trembled all over.
"Yan Bugui, get out of here!"
Hearing Zhang Shunde's shout, Yan Bugui frowned subconsciously and sat motionless on his chair.
The third aunt heard the noise outside and whispered: "Lao Yan, today is the happy day of Xie Cheng. There are so many relatives and friends outside watching. Don't make sure anything goes wrong. Go and have a look."
"
"No, I got very angry when I saw that Zhang Shunde. He's just a director of a lumber factory, pretending to be the director of the factory."
Yan Bugui also became stubborn and refused to go out.
Just when the third aunt had no choice but to do anything, Yan Jiecheng ran in from outside.
He looked panicked: "Something bad happened, Dad, Silly Zhu beat Zhang Shunde!"
"What?"
Yan Bugui's face changed drastically when he heard this. He could no longer care about the anger in his heart and walked out quickly.
Although he only met Zhang Shunde once and did not have a close friendship, he also knew very well that after Zhang Shunde was beaten today, he would definitely cause trouble.
Maybe, Yan Jiecheng's wedding will turn into a pornographic one!
The more Yan Bugui thought about it, the more frightened he became, and he almost ran all the way outside.
When he saw Zhang Shunde sitting on a chair with a bruised nose and face, his eyes were as wide as bells and he was glaring at Silly Zhu. Zhang Hongling was cursing in a low voice while helping Zhang Shunde clean his wounds.
Yan Bugui's calves were trembling a little. He suppressed his panic and walked forward, licking his face and smiling: "Hong Ling's cousin, this is so good, why did you start a fight?"
Zhang Shunde was about to speak when he seemed to remember something and glared at Zhang Hongling. Zhang Hongling stood up holding the table and said with a cold face: "Yan Bugui, my cousin is my only relative. Today is my big day."
, he was the most distinguished guest in the entire wedding banquet, but the stupid cook in our compound beat him up. If you don’t give me an explanation today, I don’t think this wedding will go ahead!"
When everyone heard Zhang Hongling's words, they shook their heads and clicked their lips.
After all, Yan Bugui is also Zhang Hongling's father-in-law. Zhang Hongling actually calls him by his first name, which is really rude.
Yan Bugui has always been the most disciplined person. When he heard this, his face was a little angry, but considering that this was Yan Jiecheng's wedding, he could only endure it.
Yan Bugui walked up to Silhu, frowned and asked: "Sinzhu, I invited you to be the cook today, how can you have a conflict with the guests!"
"Oh, third uncle, this guest of yours is unruly and made a bet with me. He lost and he didn't admit it!"
After hearing what Sha Zhu said, Yan Bugui looked at a loss, where is this going?
At this time, Yan Jiefang came up and explained the cause and effect of the matter. Yan Bugui was dumbfounded.
This stupid column obviously set a trap for Zhang Shunde, and Zhang Shunde was stupid enough to jump straight in.
Yan Bugui knew that Shazhu was a soft-spoken person, so he said with a smile: "Shazhu, you and Yan Jiecheng are both good brothers. Today is Jiecheng's happy day. I'll forget about it today.
Don’t be anyone’s father anymore, there’s no point in using all this rhetoric, don’t you think?”
Silly Zhu was originally angry, but after listening to Yan Bugui's words, he felt a lot more comfortable and nodded: "Old Yan, today I'm just looking at your face, otherwise the boy named Zhang will have to call me daddy."
!”
Silly Zhu compromised, but Zhang Shunde quit.
Since he became the director of the lumber factory, he has been domineering in the lumber factory and has been praised by others outside. He has never suffered such a big loss.
Zhang Shunde pushed Zhang Hongling's hand away, stood up and sneered: "Yan Bugui, don't be a peacemaker here. If Silly Zhu doesn't kneel down and call me grandpa today, we will never be finished today!"
Si Zhu thought he had made a concession. When he heard this, he immediately became angry. He stood up, rolled up his sleeves, and wanted to teach Zhang Shunde a lesson.
"Okay, let me see if you still want to be beaten!"
Zhang Shunde knew that he couldn't beat Silly Zhu, so he shrank his neck and said, "Okay, Silly Zhu, you wait with me."
With that said, Zhang Shunde stood up and was about to leave. Seeing that the situation was not good, Yan Bugui immediately stepped forward to stop him.
"Hong Ling's cousin, Si Zhu has a bad mouth. Don't be as knowledgeable as him."
"You have a bad mouth? Huh, I'll show him how powerful he is later!"
"Yan Bugui, you don't have to worry about this today!"
After saying that, Zhang Shunde pushed Yan Bugui staggeringly, walked out the door, got on his bicycle and left.
Yan Bugui looked at Zhang Shunde's back and frowned: "He's leaving now, right?"
"Of course not. My brother is the chief director. He was bullied by a little cook. How could he not regain his position?" Zhang Hongling crossed her left leg on her right leg, raised the corners of her mouth slightly, and said proudly: "There are some people.
, but it’s going to be a disaster!”
Silly Zhu was not a fool. He immediately understood that Zhang Shunde was going to bring in reinforcements, but he was not afraid. In his opinion, with him and Yu Juhua, no matter how many people came, they would not be a match for them.
However, Yan Bugui felt that something was wrong. Zhang Shunde suffered a big loss from Sha Zhu. He knew Sha Zhu's strength and dared to say harsh words, which showed that he had something to rely on.
Silly Zhu was the cook he hired. If he was beaten for good or bad, the Yan family would have to follow suit.
Especially since Shazhu has a very good relationship with Li Donglai, Li Donglai will definitely stand up for him.
Thinking of this, Yan Bugui couldn't sit still any longer, stood up and turned around: "Hey, why didn't I see the uncle?"
"The old man took two bites of food and then went home."
Yan Bugui could only go to Li's house again.
This is already the fifth time he has kicked on Li's door in the past few days.
Li Donglai was at home telling Li Xiaomei about her long trip.
"You are a girl. When you go to school, you must unite your classmates and respect the teacher."
"When I'm not with you, you have to be careful in everything."
"If you miss me, your school has a phone number, just hang up with me."
Li Xiaomei didn't expect that Li Donglai had such a verbose side, so she looked at Ding Qiunan helplessly: "Sister-in-law, my brother has become you..."
Ding Qiunan stretched out his hand and tapped her forehead: "With your quirky energy, if you don't bully others, who can bully you?"
Ding Qiunan originally didn't agree with Li Donglai sending Li Xiaomei to the aviation academy in Jichun, thinking that she was too young, but she soon discovered that Li Xiaomei's ability to live independently was far beyond her imagination.
In some emergencies, we handled them appropriately.
She felt relieved after thinking about it carefully. Li Xiaomei had lost her parents since she was a child, and Li Donglai was not very good at taking care of others. How could it be possible if Li Xiaomei was not capable of living independently?
The family was laughing and joking when Yan Bugui rushed in.
He took Li Donglai's hand and walked out: "Something happened to the uncle!"
Li Donglai was a little confused: "Old Yan, today is Yan Jiecheng's big day, so you can't say something nice. When I left the wedding banquet just now, the guests were enjoying themselves."
"Oh, something really happened." Yan Bugui told the story from beginning to end about Si Zhu beating Zhang Shunde.
Ding Qiunan covered her mouth and smiled: "This is something that Shazhu can do, but the method is a bit inappropriate. After all, Zhang Shunde is Zhang Hongling's cousin, and now you are in a dilemma."
Yan Bugui slapped his thigh in annoyance: "It's okay for me to be in trouble. That Zhang Shunde is not easy to mess with. Not only is he the director of the lumber factory, he is also the captain of the lumber factory's protection team. He must be sending in reinforcements now."
Already."
Upon hearing this, Li Donglai's expression suddenly became serious.
The factory protection team is actually a non-staff security officer. Since there is no establishment, the quality of the team members varies, and some are even rogues.
Before the public-private partnership, the steel rolling mill also had a factory protection team. However, after Director Yang came to power, considering that the impact of the factory protection team was too bad, he disbanded the factory protection team.
Li Donglai looked at Yan Bugui and said, "Old Yan, go to the police station immediately and ask the police officer to bring someone over."
"Yeah, why did I forget Yuyu's house!" Yan Bugui clapped his hands loudly and strode outside.
Considering that the small police officer was busy with work and might not be able to arrive in time, Li Donglai turned back to look at Li Xiaomei: "Little sister, I am giving you a glorious and arduous task now. Are you confident to complete it?"
Li Xiaomei stood at attention and saluted: "Promise to complete the task!"
"Okay, now you get on your bicycle and go to the steel rolling mill to find Qin Fen. Today is the weekend, and all the workers in the workshop are off. You ask him to bring the temporary workers over to help."
"clear!"
Li Xiaomei accepted the task and ran away in a flash.
"I'm going to the front yard now to keep an eye on it."
Li Donglai changed into clean clothes and was about to go out. Ding Qiunan said with some worry: "You must not show off."
Ding Qiunan knew that Li Donglai had some skills.
However, the land hooligans in the factory protection team never follow common sense and are best at sneak attacks.
"It's okay, I've never seen anything like this before!"
When Li Donglai came to the front yard, Zhang Hongling was standing on a chair and said angrily: "I'm telling you, when my cousin brings people here later, he will definitely beat the people in your courtyard till their noses are bruised and their faces are swollen!"
She was so annoying to look like that. If the residents of the courtyard hadn't considered that she was Yan Jiecheng's new wife, they would have attacked her long ago.
Li Donglai didn't like her, so he pointed at Zhang Hongling and said to Yan Jiecheng: "Yan Jiecheng, bring your wife into the house!"
Yan Jiecheng looked at Li Donglai a little embarrassed: "Master, I, I don't dare!"
What a loser! Li Dong came to see Third Aunt: "Third Aunt, I'll leave this matter to you. If Zhang Hongling still dares to make a noise here, don't blame me for being rude!"
The third aunt knew that Li Donglai meant what he said, so she quickly went up and took Zhang Hongling's hand: "Hongling, listen to mother's advice, let's go into the house first. The master of our courtyard is not someone to be trifled with. The Jia family in the middle courtyard
Jia Zhang was such a powerful person in the past, but Li Donglai took care of him."
Zhang Hongling heard Yan Jiecheng mention the Jia Zhang family, and today she also experienced the power of the Jia Zhang family.
To be honest, if her cousin didn't help, she might not be Jia Zhang's opponent on her own.
Zhang Hongling looked at Li Donglai, her eyes suddenly shone with light, she jumped down from the chair, ran to Li Donglai, and stretched out her hand.
"You are the eldest man in the courtyard? You are so young. Hello, I am Zhang Hongling."
