Chapter 659 Acting, Cheng Jianjun and Cai Xiaoli get married
After learning that Cheng Jianjun and Cai Xiaoli were getting married, Han Chunming couldn't keep calm. During the meal, he didn't even say much.
After eating, Han Chunming didn't stay long and left in a hurry.
Han Chunming's abnormality made Han Chunyan look confused. She knew her brother better, but this was not like his character.
"What's wrong with Xiao Wu?"
Zhou Chen placed the wedding invitation next to him on the table.
"Here."
Han Chunyan opened the invitation in surprise, "Cheng Jianjun and Cai Xiaoli are getting married. No wonder Xiaowu is worried. After all, he had talked with Cai Xiaoli at the beginning, and now that he knows that Cai Xiaoli is getting married to Cheng Jianjun, he must be in a bad mood."
Zhou Chen shook his head with emotion. So far, the entire Han family does not know the truth of the matter. Han Chunming and Cai Xiaoli have never been in love at all.
But he didn't expose this matter, it's been so many years.
"You can give me a red envelope when the time comes."
"How much does that pack cost?"
Zhou Chen recalled that when he and Han Chunyan got married, although he did not invite Cheng Jianjun, Cheng Jianjun still came, and Cai Xiaoli also came, and both of them followed the ceremony.
"Four hundred for sure."
When Han Chunyan heard this, she was immediately surprised: "So many?"
You must know that after working for so many years, her monthly salary is only a few dozen yuan. Now that the factory is not performing well, she can only get 60% of her salary.
After calculation, four hundred yuan is equivalent to more than half a year's salary.
"It's not much. Didn't I give you money? You don't have to save it, just use it."
Han Chunyan quickly shook her head and said: "How can that be done? I still have to save so much money. Didn't you say you want to buy a house?"
Zhou Chen looked helpless: "Chunyan, you really don't have to save money. The business in the store is good now and the dividends are quite good. Although the money is now used to open new stores, it won't be long before we can recover more money. I
With the 20,000 yuan given to you, you can buy whatever you need to buy, and really don’t skimp on it.”
Zhou's Small Commodity Store has been open for half a year, and it is an exaggeration to make a lot of money every day, but there is no problem for Zhou Chen to pay a dividend of 20,000 to 30,000 yuan a month. In addition, a new store will be opened soon, and doubling it by then will not be a problem.
The 20,000 yuan he gave Han Chunyan was mainly the red envelope he received when he got married. From friends alone, he received thousands of red envelopes, not to mention from relatives.
Mother Han gave her five thousand. Of course, the five thousand was not Mother Han's own money, but the gift money given by Zhou Chen. She confiscated none of it, gave it all in red envelopes, and bought a lot of things.
Han Chunyan's two brothers and one sister both paid 200, Han Chunming paid 2,000, and Yang Huajian and Mao Tutu paid 1,000 each.
As Zhou Chen's biological sister, Zhou Yi directly gave her 10,000 yuan, and her second uncle Zhou Liangping also gave her 5,000 yuan. In his words, Zhou Chen was the only male in the Zhou family. In addition to giving his daughter, his money was also given to Zhou Yi.
Chen.
The gift money and red envelopes received tens of thousands. Excluding the money for the wedding and the banquet, the remaining more than 20,000 were all given to Han Chunyan by Zhou Chen.
Han Chunyan has lived for thirty years and has never been so wealthy. However, she has always been used to saving. Even if she had money, she did not spend it randomly. Instead, she kept it herself and prepared to buy a house for Zhou Chen.
In fact, she couldn't quite understand Zhou Chen's thoughts, because in her eyes, Zhou Chen's courtyard house was really great. She didn't understand why Zhou Chen still thought about it when they both had such a nice house.
Want to buy a house.
Zhou Chen didn't tell Han Chunyan that he wanted to buy a villa, because it was only the end of 1982, and commercial housing had not yet fully emerged. Even in Yanjing, the housing price was only a few hundred yuan per square meter.
As for villas, the price is actually not much different. However, due to the large area, a villa, especially within the second ring road, costs hundreds of thousands at least.
Even Zhou Chen doesn't have that much money now, so he must make money first. Although house prices will rise in a few years, he will only make more money.
So he wasn't ready to tell Han Chunyan about buying a villa right now. If he did, he would definitely scare Han Chunyan.
Another reason is that Zhou Chen has a good impression of Han Mu and Han Chunming, but he has no good impressions of the two brothers and eldest sister above.
He knew the plot well and knew what was going on with those three people. Han Chunming was tricked by them. He didn't want to be targeted by these three families, so it was very necessary to keep a low profile.
Cheng Jianjun and Cai Xiaoli's wedding banquet was held as scheduled, in the courtyard of their home.
Zhou Chen had no intention of joining in the fun, so he went there with Han Chunyan when it was almost noon.
As soon as he entered the courtyard gate, Cheng Jianjun came towards him.
"Oh, Zhou Chen is here, welcome, welcome."
On the big day, even though Cheng Jianjun was unhappy with Zhou Chen, he still greeted him with a smile.
Zhou Chen said politely: "Cheng Jianjun, congratulations. Cai Xiaoli is the most outstanding female educated youth among our educated youth. I don't know how many people are watching her. I didn't expect that you got the advantage in the end. You have to treat her well in the future."
"
"Congratulations, congratulations. The second sister Han is well known as a virtuous person in our courtyard. Compared with the second sister, our Xiaoli is just average."
"You greet the guests, we'll go in first."
"Okay, then I won't greet you anymore."
Because the space in the backyard was relatively large, the banquet was placed in the backyard. However, Zhou Chen and Han Chunyan did not go to the backyard immediately, but returned to Han's house first.
"Mom, why didn't you go to the backyard to help?"
"I helped. I can't help you anymore. I'll come back and have a rest. Xiaochen, come and sit down."
Mother Han is very enthusiastic about Zhou Chen. It's no wonder that none of the five children in the Han family can go to school. None of them have even graduated from high school.
As for Zhou Chen, not only did he come from a cadre family, he also graduated from Peking University and is still working as a teacher at Peking University. In ancient times, he would at least be a scholar.
Therefore, the entire Han family respects Zhou Chen very much. As a mother, Mother Han especially likes Zhou Chen and feels that he is many times better than the eldest son-in-law.
"Thank you, Mom."
Zhou Chen sat down next to Mother Han, and then asked: "Mom, why didn't you wear the clothes Chunyan and I bought for you?"
When he and Han Chunyan got married, they bought several outfits for Han's mother.
Mother Han said with a smile: "It's not Xiao Wu's wedding. Why should I wear new clothes? The clothes you bought me are so good. I am usually busy with daily necessities and have no time to wear them."
"It's okay. You can wear it as you like. If it breaks, we will buy it for you."
Mother Han smiled happily and said: "What are you buying? How old am I? Why do I need new clothes? Mom knows that you are filial, but if you live your own life well, Mom will be satisfied."
After talking for a while, Mother Han suddenly asked Zhou Chen in a low voice: "Xiao Chen, you two are not young anymore. When are you going to have a baby?"
"mom."
Han Chunyan's face suddenly turned red.
Mother Han glared at her: "Mom, it's for your own good. Raising children when you are old will do a lot of harm to a woman's body."
She is a woman herself and has given birth to five children, so she knows very well the harm that giving birth can to a woman.
Zhou Chen responded with a smile: "Mom, don't worry, we are already making plans."
Mother Han then beamed: "This is right."
Han Chunyan deliberately changed the topic and asked: "Mom, where is Xiaowu?"
"Who knows where this damn kid went? He disappeared early in the morning."
Speaking of Han Chunming, Mother Han became very angry. What a nice girl Cai Xiaoli was. She was originally the target of her son, but now she is married to Cheng Jianjun.
Although she didn't say anything, she felt very uncomfortable, especially when she saw Cheng's mother showing off to her, which made her even more angry.
Zhou Chen sat here for a while, then saw Yang Huajian coming, so he went to the backyard with Yang Huajian.
"Where's Mao's map?"
"He didn't come. He said he didn't want to see Cheng Jianjun looking so proud, so I brought the gift money."
"Oh, this is in line with his style. How have you been doing in the unit recently?"
Yang Huajian sighed: "When I first came here, I had a lot of things to do and was very busy. I came here today and asked for a special leave."
"Really? Are you so busy?"
"What do you think? Now that we are reforming and opening up, there are too many things going on. Although I am just here, I still have a lot of things going on."
"Yang Huajian, Zhou Chen, this way."
As soon as they arrived in the backyard, the two of them were about to find a place to sit down when they suddenly heard someone calling them.
Yang Huajian took a look and said with a smile: "It's Su Meng and Li Yuan."
The two walked over and sat down at the square table.
"You two came quite early." Yang Huajian said with a smile.
Li Yuan said: "I came here early. Su Meng lives here and is right there when I leave. Han Chunming also lives here. Why isn't he here?"
"You have to ask Su Meng and Zhou Chen about this. It's useless to ask me." Yang Huajian pointed at Su Meng and Zhou Chen and said.
Su Meng snorted coldly: "I don't care where he is, it has nothing to do with me."
"Hey, are you having trouble with Han Chunming again?"
"Who is arguing with him? I'm not familiar with him." Su Meng said harshly.
Li Yuan looked at Zhou Chen: "Zhou Chen, you are Han Chunming's brother-in-law now. You must know where your brother-in-law is, right?"
"have no idea."
Zhou Chenyan gave a concise and concise answer.
At this time, Cheng Jianjun came over, greeted them a few words, and then went to pick up the bride at the door.
Yang Huajian looked at Cheng Jianjun and Cai Xiaoli who walked in, with emotion on his face.
"To be honest, I really didn't expect that Cai Xiaoli would actually marry Cheng Jianjun. Cheng Jianjun really has a lot of tricks up his sleeve."
Li Yuan didn't understand what he meant and asked: "Is there anything wrong with Cai Xiaoli's interest in Cheng Jianjun? Cheng Jianjun is also a college student after all, and now he is a cadre in the Inspection Section of the Taxation Bureau. Cai Xiaoli should be the one who married Cheng Jianjun.
Bar?"
"hehe."
Yang Huajian chuckled twice and did not refute. No matter what, today is a wedding, so face must be given.
Not long after, all the relatives and friends of the Cheng family had arrived, so the banquet was announced and everyone started to use their chopsticks.
Su Meng just took a few bites and lost interest. As her best friend, Li Yuan understood why Su Meng was like this.
"What did this guy Han Chunming do? The banquet has already started, why hasn't he come yet?"
Yang Huajian smiled and said: "This guy is mysterious all day long. I don't know what he is doing, but I think he will come. After all, he lives in the same compound as Cheng Jianjun. If he doesn't come, how will we get along with each other in the future?"
Li Yuan said to Yang Huajian: "Yang Huajian, please do Su Meng a favor later and make Han Chunming angry so that he will not dare to do this to us Su Meng again."
Yang Huajian asked in confusion: "Help? How to help?"
Li Yuan gave her advice: "When Han Chunming comes later, you and Su Meng deliberately act closer to make him angry."
After saying that, she turned to look at Zhou Chen and warned: "Zhou Chen, you can't tell Han Chunming."
Zhou Chen shrugged and said, "You can do whatever you want. It has nothing to do with me and I won't say anything."
He was too lazy to care about Han Chunming and Su Meng's affairs. He had not tried to persuade Han Chunming, but Han Chunming was stubborn and would give up the entire forest for the sake of Su Meng.
While talking, Han Chunming suddenly ran into the yard out of breath.
Yang Huajian was the first to see it. He immediately stood up and shouted to Han Chunming: "Chunming, this way, come here quickly."
Cheng Jianjun and Cai Xiaoli, who were standing up to prepare a toast, complained a little when they saw Han Chunming, who was sweating profusely and had just arrived.
"Chunming, you are a bit outrageous. What's going on? Why did you come now?"
Han Chunming wiped the sweat from his forehead and replied out of breath: "I'm sorry, the motorcycle broke down halfway. I came here on my legs."
"Okay, I'll let you go now, I'll talk to you later."
After dealing with Cheng Jianjun, Han Chunming sat down next to Zhou Chen. When Su Meng saw that Han Chunming was going to sit next to her, she immediately stood up, walked to sit next to Yang Huajian, and looked away from him with a cold face.
Han Chunming smiled at her and when she saw that she ignored him, he didn't care and said hello to Yang Huajian and Li Yuan.
Yang Huajian poured a glass of wine for Han Chunming. Han Chunming picked up the glass and still looked at Su Meng with a smile, trying to please Su Meng.
But Su Meng deliberately ignored him, and instead asked Yang Huajian: "Yang Huajian, last time I heard that you were about to get married, and then you cheated on your fiancée?"
Yang Huajian said with a depressed look: "Isn't it? Don't mention it. My fiancée rides on me every day because her father is more powerful than mine. I have long wanted to brag about it, but
If the old man doesn't say anything, I can't help it. Zhou Chen also knows about this, and we even had dinner together."
Speaking of this, Zhou Chen also felt sympathy for Yang Huajian. Yang Huajian's fiancée was indeed a top-notch person. She was particularly weak-sighted and very capable. She was somewhat similar to Su Meng.
But Yang Huajian is not Han Chunming. He can endure it because he has no right to speak. If he had the right to speak, he would have kicked his fiancée long ago.
"Speaking of which, the reason why I had a fight with that woman was because one day she gave me a hard time in front of our whole family, which completely angered my old man, so I took advantage of this opportunity to push things along.
, Kakaka, the engagement was terminated.”
Li Yuan said cooperatively: "Yang Huajian, why bother looking for something far away? Isn't there a beautiful woman sitting next to you right now?"
Yang Huajian glanced at Han Chunming, then suppressed a smile and asked Su Meng: "Su Meng, if you don't mind it, can we develop a relationship?"
Su Meng deliberately raised her head, glanced at Han Chunming, and said to Yang Huajian, "I think this is okay."
"Then it's settled, let's go out for a walk after the meeting is over?"
"OK."
Han Chunming couldn't sit still at this time. He was usually shrewd, but when he encountered something related to Su Meng, his IQ suddenly disappeared.
Although he knew that these two people might be angry with him on purpose, he still couldn't help it and felt very uncomfortable.
Taking advantage of the urine escape, Han Chunming ran away to relieve his depression.
After coming back, Han Chunming was still depressed. He drank with Zhou Chen and Zhou Chen didn't persuade him.
After a while, Cheng Jianjun and Cai Xiaoli came over with a toast. At this table, Han Chunming was still particularly unhappy.
Yang Huajian was also playful and playful. When he saw Han Chunming's appearance, instead of stopping, he became even more aggressive and flirted with Su Meng.
After Cheng Jianjun and Cai Xiaoli left, Zhou Chen approached Han Chunming and whispered: "Chunming, I saw Cheng Jianjun arranged two people outside, who are from the law enforcement department. I guess he is waiting for your good brother to come and cause trouble.
."
When Han Chunming heard this, his expression suddenly changed, and he didn't care about Yang Huajian and Su Meng's performance there.
"Are you serious?"
"You'll know when you go out and take a look."
Han Chunming couldn't sit still anymore, so he stood up and walked outside.
Seeing Han Chunming leaving again, Yang Huajian asked Zhou Chen: "Why did Chunming leave again? What did you say to him?"
"Nothing, let's continue drinking."
He reminded Han Chunming that he just didn't want Cheng Jianjun to succeed. This guy was secretly plotting against others on the day of the wedding. This kind of person couldn't let him succeed.
With his reminder, Han Chunming stopped Li Chengtao in advance and no tragedy occurred.
