Liu Dacheng, the eldest brother of the Liu family, smiled and said, \u201cBrother-in-law, aren\u2019t we here for the wedding?\u201d<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cI didn\u2019t invite you,\u201d Zhao Fugui said angrily.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cThat is your mistake. Jinge is getting married. How could you not invite his uncle? According to\u00a0 tradition, when he marries, we need to carry him!\u201d<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Liu Dacheng went to the tables that had already been set up by the Zhao family, pushed aside a guest, and sat down on the edge of the table. \u201cAs uncles and aunts that have the closest relationship, you have to give me a big red envelope.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">According to rural customs, if the bride had a brother when she got married, this brother needed to carry her out. If there were no brothers in the family, someone from her maternal family\u2019s side would do it, like the uncle or cousin, and the bride\u2019s family would give them a red envelope.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">But . . . it was customary for a married niece to give a big red envelope. Even when an uncle gave a red packet of 100 copper to his nephew, the nephew or niece only needed to give him 50 copper. Not only that, the uncle from the mother\u2019s side was supposed to help in the wedding preparations!<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In the end of the day, this so-called red envelope was only because some people thought it was too much to ask for both money and help, so they finally gave a small red envelope.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Liu Dacheng\u2019s statement showed his extreme shamelessness, but they did even more shameless things.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Liu Dacheng\u2019s wife also sat down, took the things on the table, and ate them. She also said to some men from Hexi, \u201cZhao Liu is really unfilial. Her son doesn\u2019t even say anything to his family when he gets married. She never knew how to be polite. But now she is getting more and more foolish, making her parents angry.&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cThe Zhao family are living such a good life and could even hold such a decent wedding. At the beginning, we only borrowed ten silver from the Zhao family, and she came back and forth for it for ten years. I\u2019ve never seen such a stingy person.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">When the first person opened their mouth, more and more people from the Liu family spoke excessively, and some people even commented on Zhao Jinge.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cThis Jinge is so ugly. I don\u2019t know how he hooked up with a man who was willing to marry in.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cI don\u2019t know what&#8217;s wrong with people . . .\u00a0 Once upon a time, there was an eunuch who was bitten by a dog in our village. As long as someone is willing to marry, no matter who it is, will you marry?&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cYes. If not for that, who would want to marry such an ugly and old ger?\u201d<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0. . .<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">These people scolded without restraint, but they also kept eating the food and even took out baskets and casks and started emptying the dishes. They were so fast that the guests invited by the Zhao family could not respond.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Sometimes in this world, the more shameless you were, the better you could take advantage of it.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cWhat are you doing?\u201d Wang Haisheng looked at the people discontentedly and stood up. He used to be a very timid man, but after being with Jiang Zhen for a long time, he was no longer the silent man he used to be.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cYes! What are you doing? Stop it!\u201d He Chunsheng also stood up, and his brother, He Xiasheng seeing this, stood up quickly as well.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Although He Chunsheng and He Xiasheng had come today, they had been shrinking in the corner without any sense of presence. They knew that their identity was a little embarrassing. Seeing that the Zhao family had no need for help, they hid in a corner and didn\u2019t say anything. They just wanted to eat the wedding banquet silently and leave. And as it turned out . . . Liu Heitou came!<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Having been beaten by Liu Heitou several times, He Chunsheng and He Xiasheng were afraid of him. When they saw Liu Heitou, they couldn\u2019t help but feel a bit weak and even wanted to turn around and run away. But if they ran away this time . . . wouldn\u2019t all their previous efforts be useless? Their days might be even more miserable in the future.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">He Chunsheng and He Xiasheng were trying hard to not run away when they saw Wang Haisheng stand up. Even though they felt embarrassed, they also stood up.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cLooks like people are still daring to talk to us like that. After my sister married into the Zhao family, she turned a blind eye to us, didn\u2019t she?\u201d Liu Dacheng said angrily and overturned a table.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The dishes on that table had already been eaten or emptied by them, but the plates that were still there were all smashed to pieces.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Liu Dacheng was called by Liu Heitou to make trouble for Zhao Fugui and his family. When his eldest daughter came back from the county town a few days ago and told them that Zhao Jinge might be getting married, their family didn\u2019t care\u2014they didn\u2019t want to have anything to do with the Zhao family because the life of the Zhao family was difficult. But what they didn\u2019t expect was that, even though they didn\u2019t want to have anything to do with the Zhao family, Liu Heitou from their village unexpectedly came to their door . . . Naturally, they didn\u2019t dare to not listen to Liu Heitou\u2019s words, so they came\u00a0 here to make trouble. And after seeing that the Zhao family\u2019s marriage banquet was so respectable, they were even more eager to find fault.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The sound of the bowls and chopsticks falling to pieces on the ground was so loud that Zhao Fugui clenched his fist in resentment. Just then, Jiang Zhen strode out of the house.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Today was his wedding day. Although Jiang Zhen had long regarded Zhao Jinge as someone from his family, he knew how much he cared about these customs. He didn\u2019t regard the wedding as sacred but still calmly completed the process. After all, this was his wedding, a once in a lifetime wedding.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">He took Zhao Jinge into their new house, and their mother was saying auspicious words. But before he could lift Zhao Jinge\u2019s red veil, there was a loud noise outside. He finished the process at the highest speed, lifting Zhao Jinge\u2019s red veil and drinking a glass of wine. He couldn\u2019t believe that someone dared to overturn his table!<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Jiang Zhen himself had overturned the table of the Jiang family once, but no one was allowed to overturn his own table! What was more, this was his wedding!<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Zhao Jinge had looked forward to this wedding so much that he had been trembling in delight, but someone wanted to destroy it . . ..<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cLooking for trouble?\u201d Jiang Zhen scanned the people present, and finally, his eyes fell on Liu Heitou.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cI heard that you changed your name to Jiang Zhen? Jiang Zhen, your mother-in-law . . .\u00a0 Oh, you married in! Then it is your mother, your mother is from Lijia Village, so we as your relatives have come here to drink the wedding wine.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Liu Heitou looked at Jiang Zhen with a sneer on his face. In fact, he could have come to make trouble earlier, so that Jiang Zhen could not even pay his respects in the ancestral hall, but he didn\u2019t do that. If Jiang Zhen wanted to marry the ugly ger or go to live in the ugly ger\u2019s house, why should he stop him? He couldn\u2019t wait!<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Liu Heitou looked at Jiang Zhen with disdain in his eyes. Up until now, he had completely ignored Jiang Zhen and wanted to see the mess he caused Jiang Zhen. The Liu family were his relatives. When relatives came to his door, what could he do?<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cJiang Zhen!\u201d Zhao Jinge came out of the house with his eyebrows wrinkled tightly, so the scar between his eyebrows stood out even more.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Liu Heitou glanced at Zhao Jinge and said with a sneer, \u201cIs this the man you married? He is really ugly. He can\u2019t compare with the little ger you saved last time. However, there are still uses for a big man like him. You don\u2019t have to be afraid of breaking him.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As Liu Heitou spoke, Jiang Zhen had already started taking off his new clothes. He threw his clothes at Zhao Jinge and let him take them. Jiang Zhen grabbed the door bolt and went out.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If a bad guest came to your door, it was better to fight them out!<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><br \/>Edited by : Faro<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Proofreader: Taalia<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Support translation:<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.patreon.com\/bePatron?u=25191841\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"217\" height=\"51\" class=\"wp-image-338 lazyload\" data-src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/ontimestory.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/become_a_patron_button.png?resize=217%2C51\" alt=\"\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 217px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 217\/51;\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image is-resized\"><a href=\"https:\/\/ko-fi.com\/lajnaa\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" data-src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/ontimestory.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/kofi3-3.png?resize=185%2C47\" alt=\"This image has an empty alt attribute; its file name is kofi3-3.png\" width=\"185\" height=\"47\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" class=\"lazyload\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 185px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 185\/47;\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\r\n\r\n<p><!--EndFragment--><\/p>\r\n<p><!--EndFragment--><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Now, in the face of Zhao Fugui\u2019s questions, the Liu family were still smiling.
