Chapter 1645 Zhao Jun misses his son
The Zhao family went out to see the guests off, leaving only three tables in the room.
Among the three tables, only the leader's table was still drinking.
At this time, Chu Anmin suggested that they stop here today so as not to delay other people's business.
No one at the table objected, and Yu Xuewen, Zhang Shaowen and Zou Yunchuan had no objection either. The reason for this drinking party was the comradeship between Chu, Tao and Zhao, and had nothing to do with Yu Xuewen and the others.
Zhang Shaowen left as soon as he said he would. After saying a few polite words to the people at the same table, he stood up, greeted Zhang Jingye and two clerks, and walked out with Zou Yunchuan.
Chu Anmin, Tao Dabao and others followed, both to see them off and to leave.
Since the four members of the Zhao family were not at home, Zhou Chunming, Li Dazhi and Zhao Guofeng helped to entertain the guests.
After arriving at the front yard, Zhao Jun saw Zhang Shaowen and four others were about to leave, and hurriedly walked over to greet them.
Seeing Zhao Jun coming, Zhou Chunming and Li Dazhi invited Chu Anmin, Yu Xuewen and others into the house. Zhao Guofeng sent Zhang Shaowen to meet up with Zhao Jun.
Facing Zhao Jun, Zhang Shaowen, Zou Yunchuan and others said a few words of blessing.
Zhao Jun thanked them one by one. When they reached the gate of the courtyard, seeing Wang Meilan approaching, Zhang Shaowen raised his hand and said to her, "Captain Wang, next Monday is tomorrow. At 9 a.m., you have to go to the township for a meeting."
After saying this, Zhang Shaowen muttered again, "I've been calling you these past few days, but you didn't answer."
Since knowing that Wang Meilan was the daughter of an old friend, Zhang Shaowen's attitude towards Wang Meilan has changed a lot. At the banquet, Zhang Shaowen saw Wang Meilan's hospitality to the people of Xishantun, and the people of Xishantun showed Wang Meilan their heartfelt respect, which made Zhang Shaowen feel that Wang Meilan was a good worker.
As for why she didn't answer the phone these days, Zhang Shaowen had already found an excuse for Wang Meilan in his mind: she was busy with her son's wedding.
Hearing Zhang Shaowen talking about the meeting, Wang Meilan quickly agreed. After seeing Zhang Shaowen and the others off, Zhao Jun and the other three returned to the house and sat with the guests for a while, then saw Chu Anmin raise his hand and say, "It's okay, we'll leave."
Having said that, Chu Anmin stood up and was about to leave.
He arranged to leave, and the forestry bureau's tiger hunting team and Mosiga's driver also wanted to leave. Yu Xuewen discussed it with Tao Dabao, and the two of them also stood up and said they wanted to go back.
It’s getting late, and the young couple still has important things to do, so they should leave quickly.
The Zhao family and several leaders of the forest farm escorted the two groups of people out together.
At this moment, Han Dachun and Han Daming came over, each carrying four or five plastic bags, and met Zhao Jun and others.
"Sister-in-law!" Han Dachun called Wang Meilan and said, "These are the two tables of food left, no one has touched them."
Wang Meilan was afraid that there would be too many people coming and that her family might not be able to entertain them well enough, so she prepared two more tables of dishes for each banquet.
Han Dachun had personally instructed that if there were any leftovers from the two tables, the helpers and kitchen assistants were not allowed to share them, but had to pass them on to the next generation.
In this way, the remaining two tables of dishes from the first round were mixed into the second round and put back into the pot, and then served on plates.
At the last banquet, although there were 272 people from Xishantun, there were many children who needed to be held by their parents while eating, so the 27 tables were not filled.
The empty space was just right for Li Wubo and Ji Lin's families to sit there.
So, in the end, the two tables of dishes that You had prepared were left over.
The Han brothers' hearts were with the Zhao family. Seeing that the Zhao family's banquet was over, they knew that Wang Meilan was too generous and were afraid that Wang Meilan would share the two tables of dishes with the helpers and kitchen assistants. That's why they packed the dishes in plastic bags that Zhao Jun bought from the city, hoping that Wang Meilan would take them back to the Zhao family's old house to eat.
Seeing the two brothers bringing the vegetables, Wang Meilan hurriedly took a few plastic bags and asked Chu Anmin and others to hold them.
The men were embarrassed, Li Wubo's wife and Ji Lin's wife each took two. Zhao Jun picked four boxes of meat and vegetables and sent them to Li Yunxiang. When he first went to Yongxing last year, he lived in Tao Xiaobao's house. Li Yunxiang cooked and took care of him and Li Baoyu every day.
At this time, Wang Meilan gave Jiang Lan a few more dishes, but she heard Jiang Lan decline, "Sister-in-law, please give all these to that aunt."
Jiang Lan pointed at Old Lady Chu and said, "Auntie didn't eat much just now."
As soon as Jiang Lan finished speaking, everyone looked at Old Lady Chu. Jiang Lan and the others didn't know what happened later, but Zhao Jun and the others saw clearly from the toasts that the old lady hugged him twice with all her might, and the next two hugs slipped through the cracks. It can be said that she was busy all day.
Chu Anmin was stunned when he heard this, and glared at Tao Dabao under the influence of alcohol, as if he was blaming Tao Dabao for not taking good care of his wife.
"Ouch!" Although Wang Meilan knew what was going on with Mrs. Chu, she had to save face for the Chu family at this time, so Wang Meilan walked towards Mrs. Chu with four plastic bags of vegetables and said apologetically, "I was so busy today that I didn't notice. Did you not eat well?"
"No, no." When asked by Wang Meilan, Mrs. Chu waved her hands in panic and said, "I've eaten well. It's very good."
"That means you're just chatting, haha." Wang Meilan found an excuse for Old Lady Chu, then handed the dishes in her hand to her and said, "If you get hungry tonight, just heat up these dishes and eat them."
"Yeah!" Old Mrs. Chu took the dish with a smile, not noticing that her son was staring at her.
"Brother, take this." At the same time, Zhao Jun handed two dishes to Li Chunming and said, "Chief Li, these are all untouched. The icy crispy white meat dish is something the child would like to eat, so you take it back for the child."
Zhao Jun said so, and Li Chunming obeyed respectfully. Seeing Li Chunming accept the dishes, Zhao Jun gave some to Zhao Jicheng, Qin Zhusong, and Zhang Dongzhi.
These are all his father's relationships. His father is drunk now, so Zhao Jun has to help maintain these relationships.
In this way, most of the dishes brought by Han Dachun and Han Daming were distributed to these people.
After seeing off these guests, only guests from Zhao’s mother’s family were left in the Zhao family compound.
"Second brother." At this time, Ma Ling's aunt Wang Cuihua called Wang Cuihua softly and said, "It's almost time, let's go too."
Hearing this, Wang Cuihua looked at Ma Dafu and said, "Dad, it's already this late, let's go."
Ma Dafu, who was quite cheerful in the morning, suddenly looked gloomy.
Ma Dafu looked up at Ma Ling who was sitting opposite him. His lips trembled slightly, but he said nothing.
The next second, Ma Dafu suddenly stood up from the sofa. He looked at Ma Ling again, but didn't say anything.
Ma Dafu wanted to say, "Dear, let's go now," but he was afraid that he would lose control of his emotions once he said it.
So Ma Dafu turned to his eldest brother-in-law, Dalian Qiao, and said, "Brother, brother-in-law, let's go."
"Let's go. It's time for us to leave." Wang Zhongjie stood up as he spoke. They had been here for several days and had already sent their eldest niece out. They had been with her from beginning to end today, so it was time to pack up and go home.
Seeing the Ma family was about to leave, Ma Ling couldn't help but feel a little flustered. At this moment, Ma Yang called her, "Let's go, sister."
After hearing what Ma Yang said, Zhao Jun almost cursed. He spent so much effort to marry the wife, and you still want to take her away?
Ma Yang's words made everyone laugh, and his cousins all teased him.
While everyone's attention was on Ma Yang, Ma Ling quickly and quietly wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes.
Her family left immediately, leaving her alone at her husband's home. Ma Ling suddenly felt abandoned by her family.
Zhao Jun noticed Ma Ling's emotional changes. He patted Ma Ling's shoulder gently. Ma Ling turned her head and looked at Zhao Jun. Meeting Zhao Jun's gentle gaze, Ma Ling felt a little comforted.
But when Ma Ling turned around, she saw Ma Dafu looking at her.
After meeting his daughter's eyes, Ma Dafu turned his head and looked away. He had seen his daughter crying just now; Ma Dafu also saw Zhao Jun comforting Ma Ling.
Seeing that his son-in-law was kind to his daughter, Ma Dafu felt a little more comforted. He was afraid that Ma Ling would cry again, so he asked his family to leave.
Seeing that the guests from the bride's family were about to leave, the Zhao family hurried to see them off, and Zhao Jun pulled Ma Ling to follow behind.
The Zhao family's yard was also large. Everyone talked as they walked, and it took more than a minute to walk from the front of the house to the gate of the yard.
"Fourth brother-in-law!" Suddenly, Ma Ling's third aunt's cousin Sun Gaomeng pulled Ma Yang to Zhao Jun and called Zhao Jun, "Our younger brother has something to tell you."
"Ah?" Zhao Jun was startled and looked at Ma Yang. At this time, everyone stopped and cast their eyes over.
Before the Ma family leaves, they can give their new son-in-law a few final words of advice, which is fine. As the brother-in-law, it is OK for Ma Yang to start with some words of advice, and no matter whether what he says is appropriate or not, Ma Dafu, Wang Cuihua or Ma Sheng can add a few words.
Ma Ling stared at Ma Yang with her big eyes; she still had expectations for this younger brother whom she had raised since childhood.
Ma Ling knew that unless they got divorced, her parents would not interfere with her life.
At this time, no matter what her family said, all Ma Ling could get was psychological comfort.
But Ma Ling, who was about to be separated from her family, urgently needed this kind of psychological comfort.
Under Ma Ling's gaze, Ma Yang came in front of Zhao Jun, but he opened his mouth but no sound came out.
“Go ahead!” Wang Gaomeng pushed Ma Yang impatiently, and Ma Yang said, “Brother Jun…”
As soon as Ma Yang opened his mouth, Li Ruhai interrupted him: "Why call me Jun-ge? Call me brother-in-law!"
Everyone laughed. Ma Yang said to Zhao Jun in a panic, "Sister...brother-in-law, you can't hit my sister or anything. Otherwise, we will deal with her!"
"What?" Zhao Jun was stunned. The topic was originally quite serious, so why did it suddenly become wrong?
“Hahahaha…” Amid the laughter of the crowd, Ma Yang finally realized that he had said the wrong thing. His face flushed red and he shouted to Zhao Jun, “We’ll take care of you!”
"Hahaha..." Everyone laughed even louder. Zhao Jun didn't laugh because Ma Ling next to him looked unhappy. Ma Dafu didn't laugh either. He grabbed Ma Yang by the back of the neck and pulled him to his side.
"My dear relatives! My dear mother-in-law!" At this time, Ma Dafu said to Zhao Youcai and Wang Meilan, "Then we will leave."
After Ma Dafu finished speaking, without waiting for Zhao Youcai and Wang Meilan to respond, he said to Ma Ling: "Ling'er, live a good life with Zhao Jun in the future, respect your father-in-law and mother-in-law, and take care of your two sisters."
Hearing this, Ma Ling held back her tears and nodded repeatedly, and then she heard Ma Dafu continue, "At home, you have to be active in your eyes..."
"Oh, my dear relatives!" Hearing this, Wang Meilan interrupted Ma Dafu and said, "How much work can there be at home? Don't worry, when our daughter comes to our house, we will treat her like our own daughter. What kind of work can we let her do?"
Ma Dafu wanted to hear Wang Meilan's words. Hearing this, Ma Dafu felt psychologically comforted and smiled, "Mother-in-law, what are you afraid of with your own child? Let her do whatever work she needs. If she doesn't know how to do it, just teach her."
"Okay, dear relatives, then you can rest assured." Wang Meilan saw that it was getting late, and thought that she should not delay her son's entry into the bridal chamber, so she stopped talking nonsense with Ma Dafu. Her family had plenty of money and people, so why should she order her daughter-in-law around?
Having said what needed to be said, Ma Dafu gave Ma Ling one last glance and then left with the guests from her family.
After the guests from her mother's family left, Han Dachun took the cook, the helpers, and the kitchen assistants to the front yard and said to Zhao Youcai and Wang Meilan, "Brother, sister-in-law, we have packed everything up for you. We will leave now!"
Wang Meilan saw this and waved to Jin Xiaomei and Zhao Ling, who each took out a stack of red envelopes from their pockets. Jin Xiaomei distributed the red envelopes to the helpers and kitchen assistants, while Zhao Ling distributed the red envelopes to Han Dachun and the other twelve cooks.
The red envelopes for the helpers and kitchen helpers each contained 20 yuan, while the red envelopes for the cooks each contained five big unity notes.
The helpers and kitchen assistants carried the stew pots they brought from home, while the cooks each carried four lunch boxes.
These people worked hard for a whole day at Zhao's house, but they all returned with a full load.
Wang Meilan took a group of people to send the cook away, and then she never returned.
This elder is reasonable. Wang Meilan knew that Ma Ling had just arrived at the Zhao family, so she was inevitably a little scared and a little shy. Instead of bringing people back, it was better to just leave.
As for the mess in the house, Wang Meilan didn't care.
"Mom and the others are not coming back?" Seeing that Wang Meilan and the others had disappeared, Ma Ling asked Zhao Jun in a low voice.
"Wife, please come into the house first!" Zhao Jun simply called his wife, which made Ma Ling blush and she turned around and ran into the house.
But she forgot that this was not her home. The front yard of the Zhao family compound was three times as big as her own. Ma Ling ran two steps but still couldn't get into the house, so she changed from jogging to walking fast.
Seeing Ma Ling leave, Zhao Jun hurriedly closed the door. The fence of the old Zhao family house was not locked, but the big iron gate of the new house was locked.
He closed the door from the inside, locked the heavy padlock weighing one and a half pounds, and Zhao Jun turned around and ran into the house.
When Zhao Jun entered the house, Ma Ling was already sweeping the floor with a broom. Many people came to the house today, and in the countryside these days, when people go out to visit friends, they throw melon seed shells and cigarette butts directly on the floor.
Although the Zhao family's house was paved with tiles, the guests were used to it. Seeing the room full of garbage, Ma Ling picked up a broom as soon as she entered the room.
Zhao Jun, who had just come in, looked at Ma Ling bending over to sweep the floor and recalled the scenes of the two of them living together in their previous life.
Then, Zhao Jun thought of his son again.
So Zhao Jun called Ma Ling and said, "Wife, don't clean up yet. You've been tired all day, take a rest."
There is one more chapter to make up for it, which will be posted around 2:30. Brothers, if you are tired, go to bed first and read it tomorrow morning.
