Chapter 77 A world where only the Xu family is hurt
Gao Zhendong followed the crowd and gave a gift of 5 cents. It seemed that there were more gifts, but Gao Zhendong didn't care. That was all. His relationship with Xu Damao was just like that.

Time passed as people in the yard were busy. When it was almost noon, the dishes were served and the seats were full.

At this time, the wedding is at its simplest stage. There is no such thing as bowing to heaven and earth and then to parents. Why? Who wants to make themselves uncomfortable?

After everyone sat down, Xu's father and mother, along with Xu Damao and Pang Shuixian, appeared at their doorstep, and the noisy scene became quiet.

It was obvious that there was no pre-arrangement or anything like that in Xu Damao's wedding. It was just a forced move.

Although it was said to be a happy event, the only one who showed a happy expression was Pang Narcissus. Both Xu's father and mother looked as if they had eaten shit.

Not to mention Xu Damao's face. To say he looked pale was an understatement. To say he looked ashen was probably the right word.

What about three turns and one sound and thirty-six legs? Not at all.

Pang Shuixian obviously doesn't care about this. This woman is very goal-oriented. Once she achieves her goal, she will be happy. Even if she doesn't have it now, she will have it after a long time in the future. The Xu family will need it too, right?

Gao Zhendong didn't know what the wedding host was called in Beijing at that time. He was not a native of Beijing and had never attended any local weddings. This matter was obviously not worth inquiring about.

He only knew that his hometown in his previous life called this the Chief Supervisor, so in his heart, he should be called the Chief Supervisor.

The chief supervisor was Yi Zhonghai. He felt that hosting this wedding was nothing like the weddings he had hosted in the past. He just wanted to go through the process quickly and get it done.

I still have to say some polite words, but I can't say those old sayings anymore. Basically, it's about two aspiring young men and women who have come together in the construction of society. I wish them to respect each other after marriage, manage their families well, and work harder for social construction.

Gao Zhendong didn't hear the phrase "May you have a happy marriage and a son soon", which made him feel that it was quite appropriate. If this phrase was applied to Xu Damao and his wife, it would probably be the most vicious curse.

Sha Zhu and He Yushui sat next to Gao Zhendong. Looking at Xu Damao's expression, Sha Zhu smiled happily. If you didn't know, you would think he was the one getting married.

After Yi Zhonghai finished speaking, Xu's father also said a few words. It was obvious that he was not in the mood to talk. He just finished his speech by celebrating his son's wedding, thanking the neighbors, eating and drinking well, and then ended it hastily.

Under the hosting of Yi Zhonghai, Xu Damao and Pang Shuixian bowed to their parents and then bowed to everyone, and the wedding was considered over.

Most of the people in the yard had witnessed or heard about the trouble Pang Narcissus caused that night.

Although we didn't see the later scenes and don't know how the two got married, we were obviously aware that today's wedding was strange, so apart from the slightly perfunctory "Congratulations" when the two bowed, no one showed any congratulatory expression.

As the wedding ended, Yi Zhonghai announced the start of a banquet, and the scene became even more lively than the wedding just now.

If you are not active in eating, there is something wrong with your brain.

Although there is not much meat, it’s okay as long as it’s something to eat.

Sitting at the next table was Yan Bugui's family. Old Yan gave 5 cents and his whole family came. Gao Zhendong didn't know what the rules were in Beijing, but in his hometown in his previous life, people would give a gift, no matter how much, but there would usually not be more than two people at the table, unless they were very close relatives, then the whole family would come.

Unlike Xu Damao's family who had Sima faces throughout the whole time, Sha Zhu was smiling happily the whole time. You can't say he did anything wrong. I'm happy for you that you're getting married. You can't find any fault with this, right?

Gao Zhendong hadn't been to such a party for a long time, and he and Sha Zhu were having a great time drinking together. However, he still quietly said to Sha Zhu, "Sha Zhu, your laughter is too exaggerated. Hold back a little, hold back a little." Sha Zhu nodded, "Okay!"

Then I laughed even more happily.
Gao Zhendong also had a pleasant chat with other neighbors at the table. Eating with a group of people is different from eating alone.

Everyone in the hospital was happy, except Xu Damao's family who were hurt.

Faintly, Gao Zhendong's sensitive ears heard someone talking about Pang Shuixian with others, "I think I've seen this woman somewhere before."

Gao Zhendong turned his head and saw the two people who were talking about this were laughing, and their laughter was a bit weird.

Soon, the bride and groom began to toast each table. Gao Zhendong was arranged to sit at the front. He was the only one with an official hat in the yard, and he was also a deputy section chief.

After the main table was his table. He was originally arranged to sit at the main table with the Xu family, Yi Zhonghai, and Liu Haizhong. However, Gao Zhendong declined, saying that he was about the same age as Sha Zhu and could drink more freely, so he did not go.

When Liu Haizhong heard that Gao Zhendong was not going, he seemed relieved, as if being the only ninth-rank official in the entire hospital was a very stressful thing for him, who was obsessed with officialdom.

Xu Damao and Pang Shuixian each wore a red flower on their chest, with the words "groom" and "bride" written on them. The two of them came to this table with wine glasses in their hands. Xu Damao glanced at Yan Bugui's family at the next table and his face darkened.

The two of them first toasted everyone at the table. Some brought wine, some brought water. He Yushui brought a bowl of soup. Everyone blessed in unison, and Sha Zhu's voice was particularly loud.

The look in Xu Damao's eyes when he looked at Sha Zhu, if eyes could light up, then Sha Zhu would probably be burning with anger right now.

After drinking a glass of wine, Pang Shuixian pulled Xu Damao again, poured more wine, and thanked Gao Zhendong: "Leader, thank you for that day. Damao and I toast to you."

Gao Zhendong smiled and said, "Why thank us? Your love is your own, and it happened naturally. We dare not take credit for it. Wish you all the best again."

When Xu Damao heard the words "free love", his face turned pale and he wanted to curse, but he didn't dare to.

Gao Zhendong didn't say much that night, and he didn't even write Pang Shuixian a blank check like "If the police station finds out, the factory will definitely deal with Xu Damao seriously."

Hearing Gao Zhendong's congratulations, Xu Damao had to lower the rim of his glass and drink the wine. The man in front of him was a popular person in the factory, a real engineer, deputy captain of the militia, and deputy section chief. He couldn't afford to offend him.

Amid Gao Zhendong's smile and Sha Zhu's laughter, Xu Damao and his wife went to the next table.

Holding the wine glass and looking at half of the Yan family members at the table, Xu Damao felt numb. He couldn't vent the humiliation he had suffered at the previous table here. It was a wedding, even though what he was organizing was not a wedding.

Xu Damao was so angry that he didn't even say a polite word. He drank the wine in one gulp and without waiting for half of the Yan family members at the table to toast, he turned and went to the next table.

The excitement lasted until the afternoon before it ended.

Gao Zhendong was resting at home, but he didn't expect that Lou Xiaoe would come and bring people to carry a lot of things.
