Chapter 1524: Wang Mazi, the Insightful One
Lin Chen returned to the central courtyard and looked at the people coming and going in the courtyard. Everyone had a smile on their face.
A group of children were chasing each other and playing while waiting for the meal to start...
The Siheyuan is now very prosperous. After all, in a few days, five young men will be marrying their wives one after another.
At this time, Wang Mazi and Pan Guozi came back happily from outside. The two guys went to the post office early in the morning to write letters to their hometown to report their safety.
"Uncle Lin, look how lively the kids in our yard are! I hope my Shibin hasn't caused any trouble these days!"
Lin Chen thought that it would be more lively in the afternoon...these little bastards just keep causing trouble every day.
"It's normal for children to have bumps and bruises, as long as they don't intentionally hurt others."
These days, Luo Shibin has been fighting with this person or that person, and almost all the residents in the courtyard have been irritated by him.
Pan Guozi was also in a headache. He had said it several times but there was no effect.
Wang Mazi pushed Pan Guozi away and hurriedly offered Lin Chen a cigarette.
"Brother Lin, I wrote a letter to my family today! Thank you for allowing Yinfeng's mother to come to Sijiu City to find me. Thank you for your kindness."
As a special personnel, Wang Mazi is not allowed to bring his family members with him during the reform period.
But in the steel mill, Lin Chen has the final say... If he says yes, then yes. Wang Mazi's request was approved without hesitation!
"We're all neighbors, so don't be so polite, Old Wang. Once the construction is done, I'll try to get you two transferred to the sanitation team. Doing sanitation work at the steel mill... is better than going to the Gobi Desert."
The steel mill construction site was nearing completion, and many other reform teams had already withdrawn. Wang Mazi heard that they were all being sent to the northwest to open up wasteland, but he and Pan Guozi didn't want to go... They would rather stay in the steel mill health team than leave the city.
"Thank you, Brother Lin. Thank you very much! When Yinfeng's mother arrives, I, Wang Yaozu, will host a banquet for the whole courtyard. Huahua and I will be officially married!"
Lin Chen gave the other party a thumbs up...
"Old Wang is really smart. Let Old Liu announce it to everyone before the banquet starts! And arrange the dates... The Liu family will hold it next month, followed by the Qiao family, the Yan family, the Chen family, Monkey, Dashachun... Yours will have to be postponed!"
Pan Guozi, who was standing by, felt his scalp tingling after hearing this. He had not expected this courtyard house to be so powerful... If you want to hold a wedding banquet, you have to queue up, otherwise it will not be your turn.
These are just weddings and weddings, not including those added on at the last minute. For example, today’s banquet was added on at the last minute…
Wang Mazi was not in a hurry, it didn't matter when he did it. He was mainly afraid that his wife would be bullied after entering the courtyard, so he announced early that he would hold a banquet to entertain everyone.
"I understand, I understand. Let the young people do it first. I'm not in a hurry... I just want everyone to have fun together."
Wang Mazi didn't have much savings, so Lin Chen knew that this was his third sister-in-law coming to give him some money...
Back then, the third sister-in-law must have gotten a lot of small yellow croakers from Captain Lu.
"This is a good thing that everyone will support. Let's have a few drinks later... I'll celebrate for you in advance."
……
at noon
Jia Zhang, who looked listless, sat in the corner without saying a word...
The dwarfs at the same table were all wondering what was wrong with Jia Zhang today? They hadn't seen her all morning, and now she looked like a dizzy duck.
"Jia Zhang, since you are sick, just go back and lie down. Why are you pretending to be pitiful here?"
Jia Zhang wanted to put on a complete show, so she didn't want to come...but if she didn't come and sit at the table, she would definitely be suspected.
"We are having a feast at home today, why can't I come? You don't have to worry about my health, I just didn't sleep well last night. I just need to take a nap in the afternoon..."
The other people looked at Jia Zhang, who looked listless, and didn't take her seriously. They all thought that she had a relapse of an old injury!
Liu Haizhong once again warned everyone not to do anything to betray Siheyuan, otherwise next time it would not be as simple as setting up a banquet.
"Jia Zhang, Qiangzi and Cai Quanwu, come here and make a promise to everyone..."
The three of them had no choice but to stand up and repeatedly promised that they would never betray the big guy again.
Jia Zhang looked at everyone in the courtyard and began to curse in her heart...
"Laugh, laugh! I'll kill you bastards in a moment."
After receiving the apology and assurances from the three, the banquet officially began...
Although Lin Chen's body was immune to all poisons, he didn't even take a single bite of the stir-fried pork head with green peppers...
As a result, Yan Bugui ate more than anyone else. He asked Lin Chen to treat him just to eat meat. Now a delicious dish was in front of him, how could he miss it.
Everyone at the table came to the old man to toast, and Lin Chen accepted everyone who came... He even wanted to toast three times with everyone who came.
"Brother Lin really has a huge capacity. If everyone clinks three glasses, that would be thirty glasses!"
There were about ten people at the table of the butler, and Lin Chen clinked glasses with each of them three times in a row... Although on the surface he was trying to get himself drunk, in fact Lin Chen didn't want them to drink too much. After all, the fun hadn't started yet... There were only a few bottles of Erguotou in total, and now most of them had entered Lin Chen's space.
"I'm so happy today! I'm not afraid of Old Joe, so why should you be afraid... fill up the glass quickly, we won't leave until we're drunk today."
When Qiao Buwang saw that Lin Chen wanted to drink, he stopped trying to persuade him to drink less... and clinked glasses with Lin Chen.
Lin Chen was thinking, I will be drunk in a while, don't come to me even if the sky falls outside in the afternoon. You all go find the little chicken and find a solution!
……
The banquet ended at one o'clock in the afternoon, and as expected, Lin Chen was drunk!
Liu Guangtian and Yan Jiefang carried him back to the backyard, one on each side... When the dwarf saw that his son-in-law was so drunk that he couldn't stand up, he immediately became unhappy.
A son-in-law is half a son! For Dwarf Tiger, Lin Chen's position in her heart is even higher than that of her own son.
There is no way. Xiao Lingling has already promised to take care of her in her old age, which means that Lin Chen will be responsible for her when she is old in the future.
You can’t find such a son-in-law even with a lantern...and the reason why my mother can enjoy her old age is also due to the superb medical skills of my son-in-law.
"What's wrong with you old guys? How did you get Brother Lin so drunk? Don't you know that Sister Huairu is not at home? You are all fine..."
Lao Xu looked at his wife and smiled cheerfully: "Don't yell! It was Brother Lin who insisted on challenging the ten of us. We didn't force him to drink. If you don't believe me, go ask him after he wakes up..."
At this time, Yan Bugui also came out to smooth things over: "Yes, yes, yes, Sister Hu, don't be so angry! It was really Brother Lin who asked us to drink..."
While the short-legged tiger was still blaming everyone, Chen had already gone to take care of her son-in-law...
When Lin Chen saw Chen was about to help him take off his shoes, he immediately dodged.
"No, I'm fine... Take this pill! Most people in the hospital will have stomach problems in a while... Jia Zhang's skin has started to itch again in the past two months, you don't have to be afraid of her..."
