Chapter 481 Come, let’s eat wedding candy! Let’s share in the joy!
On Tuesday, the gunner supported himself against the wall and struggled to get up from the ground.
He wiped his face, tears mixed with blood streaming down his face, sobbing and saying:
"Mom, I'm sorry to you and to Xiuqin.
She is such a good person. She gave birth to three children for me, took care of all the housework, and never neglected the crops in the fields.
I was so obsessed that I had to marry Liu Xiu'e, the tigress!
The old lady listened and pounded her pillow anxiously:
"Erpao! Go and bring Xiuqin back quickly! Bring us the Zhou family's generous gifts and kneel down to beg her!
People like Liu Xiu'e will chew you up until not even a bone is left when you're old and can't work any more!"
As she spoke, she started coughing again, gasping for breath and her words were incoherent: "If you still recognize me as your mother, take Xiuqin home and let her take care of this family!"
Zhou Erpao's eyes were red, and he nodded vigorously:
"Mom, don't get so angry that you get sick! I'll go now!
Even if Xiuqin doesn't forgive me, I will ask her to come back!"
He didn't bother to wipe the wound on his face, and stumbled out the door, wiping his tears as he ran, his heart sobbing with regret.
Zhou Erpao limped into Linjia Village. Under the big locust tree at the entrance of the village, suona music was deafening, dozens of eight-immortal tables were filled with red lacquered bowls and plates, and laughter was everywhere.
As soon as he showed his face, several men squatting at the foot of the wall eating melon seeds started to sneer.
"Hey, isn't this the ever-imposing Secretary Zhou?" The old man in the straw hat squinted at his swollen face. "How did you get into this state? Did you get bit by a stray dog?"
The person next to him laughed so hard that he slapped his thigh: "Need you ask? You've done too many bad things and you'll get what you deserve!"
"What is he doing here? Is he here to steal the bride?"
Before he finished speaking, the surrounding area suddenly exploded.
"Don't talk nonsense! Who told him that Xiuqin was getting married today?"
"God knows! No one in our village goesssips about this!"
Zhou Erpao's temples were throbbing, and he grabbed the collar of the young man closest to him: "What did you say? What day is today?"
The young man pushed him away, his face full of disgust:
"You've come just in time! Let's have a drink before we go!"
Sister Xiuqin is getting married today, and the groom is a hundred times more respectable than you!"
"Boom!" Zhou Erpao felt thunder explode beside his ears. He looked up and saw the wedding procession approaching in the distance, playing music. The red silk sedan chair shone so brightly in the sunlight that he could not open his eyes.
Someone threw peanut shells at him: "Secretary Zhou, have some wedding candy to share in the good luck!"
"That's right! Sister Xiuqin is so beautiful now!"
Someone in the crowd winked at Zhou Erpao and shouted, "Take a good look at your ex-wife later and see what she looks like when she marries someone else!"
As he was speaking, the sound of firecrackers was heard in the distance, and a sedan chair carried by eight people swayed towards them.
As soon as the sedan chair landed, several young girls came forward, lifted the curtain, and helped the people inside to slowly walk down.
Zhou Erpao took a closer look and was stunned on the spot. Is this really Wang Xiuqin?
I haven't seen her for just a few months, but she has lost a lot of weight and her back is straight. She is no longer the hunched-over girl she used to be when she served people at home.
The bright red wedding dress made her face look radiant. Her hair was piled high with a few silver hairpins in it, and she walked with a breeze.
She looks exactly the same as when she was young and just married into the Zhou family, and even more energetic than then.
Wang Xiuqin got off the sedan chair and walked towards the wedding hall without raising her head, as if she didn't see Zhou Erpao.
But Zhou Erpao stood there, his legs as if nailed down. Looking at his ex-wife's appearance, he felt sour and regretful in his heart. His throat seemed to be blocked by something and he couldn't utter a word.
Zhou Erpao was so anxious that his eyes turned red and he rushed towards the sedan chair.
Before he could take two steps, his three daughters suddenly blocked his way.
Zhou Caifeng put her hands on her hips, Zhou Yufeng clenched her fists, and Zhou Xiufeng even spread her arms out, blocking the road tightly.
"What do you want to do? This is outrageous!" Zhou Erpao yelled at the top of his lungs, "I'm your biological father!"
Zhou Xiufeng snorted, her eyes widening. "Dad? You still remember you're my dad? How come you didn't remember that when you kicked us four out of the house?"
Zhou Caifeng stamped her feet in anger:
"That's right! You're out there fooling around with some wild woman every day, throwing us mothers out onto the street without even giving us a hot meal!
Now you remember that you are the father?"
Zhou Yufeng's tears welled up in her eyes, and her voice was filled with tears:
"My mother has been taking care of you and grandma at the Zhou family. She is so tired that she can't even straighten her back.
She finally found someone who truly treats her well. Today is her big day. If you dare to mess with her, we sisters will fight you to the death!"
The three girls stood shoulder to shoulder, blocking Zhou Erpao like a wall.
The crowd suddenly became agitated, and the groom, dressed in a red Chinese wedding suit, came over with a cigarette in his mouth and two large bags of wedding candies in his hands.
He was half a head taller than the people around him, with broad and thick shoulders that made his festive red clothes stand straight.
With a smile on his face and thick eyebrows and big eyes, he looked very energetic. He handed candies to people around him while walking, and shouted: "Come on, eat wedding candies! Let's share in the joy!"
As he was handing out the gifts, he spotted Zhou Erpao squeezed in the crowd and was stunned for a moment: "Hey, isn't this Secretary Zhou? Why did he come to our village?"
Zhou Erpao was beaten black and blue, and limped on one leg. He looked up at him and said:
"Are you the hunter?
I warn you, Wang Xiuqin is my wife, don’t even think about it…”
Before he could finish his words, Zhou Xiufeng rushed out, blocking the way in front of the groom, glaring at Zhou Erpao and shouting, "Have some shame! My mother divorced you a long time ago!"
The groom unpacked a packet of wedding candy and handed it to Zhou Erpao. "Secretary Zhou, on such a happy day, let's talk it over. Have some candy first."
Tuesday's candy was shot down:
"You stinky hunter! You're a dirt-legged bastard who makes a living by hunting rabbits, and you think you're qualified to touch my wife?
Believe it or not, I will ask the police to skin you alive tomorrow!"
Wang Xiuqin rushed out and looked at Zhou Erpao and said, "What on earth do you want to do? We're already divorced, why are you making trouble now?"
Zhou Erpao looked at Wang Xiuqin and was stunned. Wang Xiuqin had become much more beautiful.
The hunter stood in front of Wang Xiuqin and said, "Xiuqin, you go in first. I'll take care of this."
Wang Xiuqin shook her head and said:
"Zhou Erpao, have you forgotten what the divorce was about?
You have to let me say it in front of so many people, right?"
Zhou Erpao looked at her and said:
"Xiuqin, I really know I was wrong, can't I change now?
If you're willing to come back with me, I'll change and give you all our family's money from now on. Isn't that okay?"
Wang Xiuqin sneered and said:
"Bah! Zhou Erpao, you are so shameless! You really think no one knows what you did!
Who doesn't know that Zhou Jun is your biological son now?"
