Chapter 660: Surprise at the Wedding Banquet
"Okay, big brother!"
Upon hearing this, Tilinaza replied weakly and turned to walk towards the third courtyard.
Time passed by minute by minute, until a burst of firecrackers was heard outside and the loud shouts of children were heard at the door. Zhou Tian then took Shen Yulin to the door.
Sure enough, just as I reached the door, I saw a car slowly driving towards the courtyard at the entrance of the alley.
Following behind was a row of boys and girls riding bicycles, and Zhou Zhiqiu, the third elementary school student.
As the car stopped and the door opened, Zhou Hao walked out with Chen Yaning.
"Here comes the bride, here comes the bride!"
Accompanied by the children's loud shouts, the two newlyweds walked up to Zhou Tian and said, "Brother, sister-in-law, we are back!"
"Good! Good! Good!"
Looking at his second brother, Zhou Tian didn't know what he was feeling at the moment. He said "OK" three times, and then he reacted: "Okay. Come in, come in!"
As he spoke, Zhou Tian let the two of them walk into the courtyard, then looked back. After a while, a group of people from the Chen family also arrived at the door in a sedan.
Looking at the two brothers Chen Wei and Chen Jun, as well as several other young men in their twenties, Zhou Tian knew that they should be the children of Chen Wei and Chen Jun.
After exchanging pleasantries with several members of the Chen family, Zhou Tian welcomed everyone in.
Subsequently, many guests came one after another, including people from the research institute, managers from subordinate factories, and many people he had met before.
Until one car after another stopped and several elderly people got out of the cars, many of the guests who had come became quiet for a while.
"Xiaotian, what's wrong? Your brother is getting married, but you didn't even inform us. Do you look down on us old guys?"
"Commander, why are you here?"
When Zhou Tian saw the person coming, he was stunned for a moment, but then he went to greet him excitedly.
"You guys are usually very busy, I don't dare to disturb you easily, not to mention this is just my second brother's wedding, what can I do for you?"
"Okay, don't use this excuse to fool us. We are just the vanguard. There are still a few more behind us. But the people above can't come this time. After all, the impact is too great. But they asked me to bring gifts to you and your second brother! How can you not welcome them?"
Looking at Zhou Tian, one of the old men couldn't help but jokingly said.
"How is that possible? Welcome. It's my honor. Chief, please!"
Zhou Tian was immediately delighted, and hurriedly welcomed the elders in and arranged them at the Chen family's table. When Chen Wei and Chen Jun from the Chen family saw the elders, they immediately stood up and respectfully saluted them.
"Hello, Chief!"
"Alright, today is the wedding of your Chen family and Zhou Tian's second brother, so don't be polite. Sit down, everyone!"
One of the old men smiled, glanced at the crowd that was almost full, and sat down as well. The other old men also took their seats.
"Okay, Xiaotian, why don't you go and greet the other old guys? I think they will be here soon!"
As he was speaking, a burst of old laughter was heard.
"Hahaha, I said Lao Luo and the others must have arrived. Sure enough, I was right!"
I saw three more old men walking in from the Chuihua Gate, followed by several guards, looking around vigilantly.
"Hahaha, I didn't expect you guys to come right after we sat down. That's perfect, it saves the little one from having to go out and greet you!"
Luo Lao smiled and stood up.
"Comrades, please take a seat!"
The moment he saw the three old men, Zhou Tian's heart beat faster. Today's scene was really beyond his expectations. You know, each of these people is the cornerstone of the country.
And they influence the situation in the country, but he didn't expect that today when his second brother got married, he would invite all these old people out. It made him feel like he was dreaming.
It felt a little unreal. Even Shen Yulin, who was following Zhou Tian, felt dizzy. Although she knew that her husband had a high status in the country, she never expected it to be so high that he even invited all these people.
Not to mention the two brothers Chen Wei and Chen Junliang and the Chen family members who were sitting on the side. Now they were sitting here and felt very uncomfortable. They really felt that they were not worthy.
The people at the other tables were all shocked and didn't dare to make any noise.
Even if there were people who didn't know the information, they were told about it by people who knew the information, making it even more difficult to believe.
Needless to say, the protagonists Zhou Hao and Chen Yaning were already shocked beyond words. Although the Chen family was quite influential in the country, it depended on who they were compared with. If compared with any old man at the table, their Chen family was just a second-rate family.
Originally, Chen Yaning married Zhou Hao. Although she didn't say it in her heart, she felt in her heart that she was marrying down. But who made her like Zhou Hao? But now it seems that this was not marrying down at all, she was clearly holding on to a golden thigh.
Especially towards her husband's brother Zhou Tian, she felt that he was unfathomable.
Only after everyone was present did Zhou Tian hold a wedding for his second brother and Chen Yaning. They first bowed to the portraits and sang red songs. Then, under Zhou Tian's introduction, Zhou Hao and Chen Yaning toasted several elders one after another.
Zhou Tian also introduced these old men to his second brother. Although it was still a bit far for his second brother to get to know these old men given his current status, they were still the Zhou family's connections after all.
Perhaps because of the presence of several old men, the atmosphere of the banquet was not very lively. They first said a few words of encouragement to Zhou Hao and gave Zhou Hao gifts. After Zhou Hao finished, they left first under the escort of the guards.
Only after the elders had left did people start talking, especially Chen Wei, who was laughing so hard that his eyes were narrowed into slits.
After all, no matter what, as a member of his mother's family, he still showed up in front of several elders. Even Chen Jun and several children of the Chen family looked at Zhou Tian with slightly different eyes.
The lively atmosphere lasted until three o'clock in the afternoon, when people began to say goodbye one after another. After everyone left, my second uncle's family helped to clear the table and clean up.
Only then did Zhou Weimin see a light of relief and surprise in Zhou Tian's eyes.
His expression was filled with indescribable pride and pride: "Xiaotian, although Second Uncle knows that you have made great achievements, I never thought that you would be so capable. If Big Brother and Big Sister-in-law are still alive, they will definitely be proud of you!"
"Uncle, you're too kind. I don't think I've done anything great for the country. It's just that the leaders took care of me!"
Zhou Tian said in a slightly complicated tone.
