Chapter 48: Jia Family's Embarrassing Scene
In the courtyard of Xu Youliang's house, the neighbors all stood up to help. A group of people gathered together, eating and chatting, and the atmosphere became more and more lively.
Xu Youliang and his best friend checked the bike carefully again. After making sure there was no problem, they led a group of people, riding on bicycles wrapped in red cloth, and rode towards No. 95 Nanluoguxiang.
"Old Xu is finally getting married!"
"She actually asked us, Old Xu, to prepare ten bicycles. I don't know what this girl looks like."
"I saw that girl. She's a little old, but she's really pretty!"
The neighbors watched Xu Youliang leave and started talking about him.
It is really not easy for Xu Youliang to get married after being single for so many years.
And No. 95 Nanluoguxiang.
The Central Courtyard is also exceptionally lively today.
With the help of neighbors, both He Daqing's and Jia Dongxu's homes were decorated with lights and colors, and everywhere you looked was festive red.
Of course, most people gathered at He Daqing's house.
There was no other choice, so He Daqing invited the chef from Fengze Garden, and even the breakfast was exceptionally delicious.
After breakfast, the chefs of Fengzeyuan had to prepare lunch, so they did not stop.
Seeing the chefs' exquisite knife skills and swift movements, the neighbors were full of admiration. Especially those who had children of marriageable age, they also wondered if they could ask He Daqing to help prepare the wedding banquet for them.
The meals prepared by these chefs are not only beautifully presented, but also taste amazing. If you can ask them to cook, the banquet will definitely be high-class!
"He Daqing, don't be too proud, or you'll be in trouble!"
Jia Zhang was sitting in the west room, but the room was deserted.
Normally, the house should be the busiest when a bride gets married, but she is already in her thirties and it is her second marriage, so who would be interested in coming into the house to see her?
Jia Zhang looked out the window from time to time, and saw a group of people surrounding He Daqing and praising him, and she felt uncomfortable for a while.
"Why hasn't Xu Youliang come yet?"
Jia Zhang was getting a little restless.
Then he looked at his son Jia Dongxu, only to find that the boy was also there with the crowd, eating happily.
Jia Zhang was furious. Her own mother was about to get married, but her son was supporting others. He really couldn't see the situation clearly...
Finally, about an hour later, with the sound of gongs and drums, Jia Zhang, who was sitting on the bed, saw through the window glass that Xu Youliang, whom she had been thinking about, was pushing a bicycle and walking into the central courtyard with a dozen people behind him.
The ten people were all wearing new clothes and looked full of energy.
Next to them, people were pushing bicycles wrapped in red cloth.
As soon as this group of people appeared, the neighbors who had been surrounding He Daqing came over one after another.
"Don't mention it. Xu Youliang looks honest on weekdays, but he's actually quite capable."
Looking at the big red flowers in front of the bicycle, a smile finally appeared on Jia Zhang's face.
Haha, aren’t you, He Daqing, very powerful?
But it was just one bicycle.
My man came to pick me up with ten bicycles!
At this time in the yard, the neighbors had surrounded Xu Youliang's wedding party.
"Wow, they brought so many bicycles at once, what a grand ceremony!"
"It seems that Dongxu's mother is still quite popular!"
"The groom is a little ugly, but he really values Jia Zhang very much!"
Bicycles are not cheap these days. So many bicycles appeared in the yard all of a sudden. Even though everyone knew that they were not Xu Youliang's, the fact that so many were gathered at once showed that Xu Youliang must have some complicated connections!
There were quite a few children in the compound at that time.
Whether it is the sons of Liu Haizhong's family or the sons of Yan Bugui's family, they are at the age when they like to play.
Seeing so many bicycles appear all of a sudden, everyone became curious and ran over.
"Oh my god, this flower is beautiful."
"How do you ride a bicycle? Can I try?"
Brothers Liu Guangfu and Liu Guangqi, as well as Yan Jiefang and Yan Jiecheng, came over curiously, flipping through the books here and there.
A snort!
At this moment, curious Liu Guangqi pulled casually, and the big red flower tied with red satin was torn apart immediately.
The big red flower was connected to other red cloths on the car. When Liu Guangqi did this, all the red cloths fell down at once.
Then, a slightly worn-out bicycle was exposed in front of everyone.
For a moment, the originally bustling yard suddenly became quiet.
No one expected that these bicycles wrapped in red cloth were actually old or second-hand bicycles!
And those red cloths turned out to be fig leaves!
Xu Youliang, "..."
Damn it! I prepared carefully for many days and was almost successful, but in the end, I was made a fool of myself by a little kid.
Shameful.
It’s so embarrassing!
Jia Zhang, who was sitting in the room, was so angry that her face turned blue.
The reason why she asked Xu Youliang to bring ten bicycles was not just for the sake of appearances. But this guy actually used some old bicycles to fool her!
Where can I put my face?
He originally wanted to defeat He Daqing, but now he has completely turned into a clown!
Snapped!
While he was in a daze, he heard a noise coming from outside. He saw the fat man with a big belly, Liu Hai, pull out a leather belt from his waist that had been used for who knows how many years and was almost rotten, and hit Liu Guangqi with it.
"You bastard, you're going to tear the roof off the house if you don't get punished for three days. Why are you messing with other people's cars?"
Liu Haizhong, who is in his thirties, is very tough and is determined to educate his son.
"Dad, I didn't mean to do that. Who knew they were all old cars!"
What Liu Guangqi feared most was the whip in his bangs. When he saw his father coming, he turned around and ran towards the crowd like a frightened rabbit, loudly defending himself as he ran.
It would have been fine if he hadn't made any excuses, but as soon as he said this, the entire compound couldn't help but burst into laughter.
Xu Youliang, "..."
Jia Zhang, "..."
They were already feeling deeply ashamed, and now they felt like their face had been severely trampled on again.
Xu Youliang couldn't stay any longer, so he put down his bicycle and ran quickly towards the Jia family's house.
At this moment, he only wanted to take Jia Zhang away as soon as possible and leave this embarrassing scene.
However, as soon as Xu Youliang entered the room, he saw Jia Zhang sitting on the bed, looking at him with a gloomy face.
"Xiao Zhang, you...listen to my explanation..."
The corner of Xu Youliang's mouth twitched, and he stammered for a moment, not knowing how to explain it.
