The heavens set sail from the courtyard

Chapter 1368: Wedding Banquet Trouble
Days passed, and soon it was the day when Liu Jishi and Shen Xiuping were to get married.

Wang Gang asked for leave from Captain Chen early in the morning, and started busying himself as Shen Xiuping's family member the day before, helping to paste wedding characters and finding someone to put makeup on Shen Xiuping.

People who don’t know would think that Wang Gang married his sister.

Liu Shufang was very satisfied with her sister-in-law. Shen Xiuping was more than qualified to be a match for Liu Jishi, a divorced man, in terms of appearance, character, work and personality.

Shen Xiuping's only shortcoming may be that she has a father in prison, but the Liu family doesn't mind this, so everything is naturally fine.

Then again, if Shen Xiuping didn't have a father in prison, she wouldn't have gotten the job for free to Liu Jishi.

Weddings in the 70s were not as complicated as they are in later generations. The Wang family contributed three bicycles, plus the Liu family's three bicycles, to form a wedding procession, which immediately became the coolest guys on the street.

Because Shen Xiuping had no relatives, she invited all her neighbors to the wedding, and even held the wedding banquet in the railway compound, hiring two chefs to prepare the food.

Most people in the courtyard liked the kind-hearted Shen Xiuping. Plus, because of Liu Shufang's face, everyone who could come came, and a lot of gifts were given, making the wedding banquet lively.

Of course, Liu Jishi and Shen Xiuping were not shabby either. The wedding banquet included chicken, meat, duck and fish. It was very rich and the main goal was to make sure all the guests had a great time.

Originally, Shen Xiuping also invited Wang Xin, but Wang Xin refused to come because of his father's matter. In the end, Ma Yan went to the passenger police dormitory and dragged Wang Xin over.

The two arrived at the gate of the compound, and Wang Xin was still a little shy.

"Ma Yan, I have something else to do later. Just give the share of money to Doctor Shen for me."

"Wang Xin, you are a grown man, why are you so shy? You know everyone in the compound, and everyone is waiting for you. Come with me to the wedding wine." Ma Yan pulled Wang Xin into the yard.

Wang Gang saw Wang Xin from a distance, exchanged glances with Cai Xiaonian, and ran over directly.

"Wang Xin, you're here!" Cai Xiaonian helped Ma Yan hold Wang Xin back, and then said, "Hurry up, your seat is reserved."

Wang Xin glanced at Wang Gang, feeling somewhat embarrassed. He was still concerned about the fact that Wang Gang had caused Wang Yongge to go to jail.

Wang Gang said: "Wang Xin, my uncle is getting married today. If you have anything to say, we can talk alone after the wedding."

Other people in the compound also saw Wang Xin and ran over to invite him, not caring about his identity as the son of a murderer.

"Wang Xin, come in quickly, Doctor Shen was just talking about you!" Cai Danian said with a smile.

"Wang Xin, you haven't been back to the compound for a while. Don't you miss us, your neighbors?" Aunt Li blamed.

"Wang Xin, are you doing well out there? Your face has become thinner."

Looking at the friendly smile of his former neighbor, Wang Xin felt warm in his heart. In fact, he had been having a hard time recently.

Since the verdict of Wang Yongge's case, although Wang Xin returned to work in the passenger police team, his work was not going smoothly.

Captain Hu assigned him to work on the Magic City line and found him a new master. Although this new master was not as strict as Ma Kui, he was very cold to him and even ignored him.

His colleagues in the flight attendant team were also avoiding him intentionally or unintentionally, as if he had some infectious disease.

Wang Xin only now understood how uncomfortable it was to be labeled as the son of a murderer.

At the same time, he also truly felt the grievances that Ma Yan had suffered in her childhood, and felt even more guilty towards Ma Kui's family.

Captain Hu said that his superiors did not agree with his return to the passenger police corps. After all, it would have a bad influence and was against the rules for a murderer's son to be a policeman.

Later, Ma Kui put aside his past grudges, went to talk to the leader, and begged for several days, and only then was Wang Xin's job saved.

Wang Xin was deeply touched by this, and had been looking for an opportunity to repay the favor, but he was also worried about the change in his status and being looked down upon by his neighbors.

But now, seeing that his old neighbor cared about him and did not regard him as the son of a murderer because of Wang Yongge's incident, Wang Xin almost cried.

Cai Xiaonian hooked his arm around his friend's neck and walked toward the courtyard. "Let's have a drink later. You didn't tell me about such a big thing that happened in your family. Don't you consider me a friend?"

Cai Xiaonian forced Wang Xin to sit down on his seat, with Wang Gang and Ma Yan sitting next to him.

Yao Yuling and Niu Dali sat at another table, far away from each other. This seat was specially arranged by Wang Gang to avoid embarrassment when Wang Xin and Yao Yuling met.

In fact, Yao Yuling has been secretly observing Wang Xin. It’s not that she wants to get back together with Wang Xin, but out of the mentality of an ex, she is concerned about whether Wang Xin is doing well, but also worried that he is doing too well.

As Yao Yuling's loyal bootlicker, Niu Dali naturally kept staring at Yao Yuling. When he found out that she was peeking at Wang Xin, he became completely jealous. In addition, he had drunk too much and was getting drunk. He came to Wang Xin's table with a glass of wine.

"Wang Xin, why are you so late? Aunt Liu's brother is getting married to Doctor Shen. It would be fine if you didn't help, but why are you late? You have to drink three cups as punishment!"

Wang Gang frowned. His uncle was getting married today, so naturally he didn't want any accidents to happen.

"Niu Dali, you are drunk, drink less." Wang Gang reminded.

"I'm not drunk." Niu Dali burped and said, "I can still drink three cups with Wang Xin."

Wang Xin looked at Doctor Shen in the distance, picked up his glass and said, "It's my fault for being late. I should be punished for these three glasses."

After saying that, Wang Xin raised his head and drank a glass, then went to get the bottle of wine on the table and wanted to pour a second glass.

"Wang Xin, drink slowly." Ma Yan stopped him and said, "You haven't eaten a single bite of food. It's easy to get drunk if you drink like this."

"It's okay. Doctor Shen is getting married today. I'm happy. I'll get drunk if I want." Wang Xin grabbed the bottle without caring, and then drank three more glasses.

Ma Kui, who was sitting at another table, immediately became gloomy when he saw Ma Yan's concern for Wang Xin.

Wang Sufang held Ma Kui's hand under the table and said, "Today is their wedding day. You should be patient and talk about it when you get home."

Ma Kui nodded with a stern face, but his eyes never left Ma Yan and Wang Xin.

Wang Xin drank three glasses of wine on an empty stomach and his face immediately turned red. Ma Yan quickly snatched the glass from his hand and picked up some food for Wang Xin.

"Eat a few more bites of food to suppress the smell of alcohol."

Niu Dali looked at Ma Yan, then at Wang Xin, and couldn't help but say, "Wang Xin, you're amazing! It hasn't been long since we broke up, and you're already back together."

As soon as he finished speaking, the faces of everyone at the table changed.

"Niu Dali, you've drunk too much." Wang Gang immediately stood up, pulled Niu Dali's arm, and said, "Yao Yuling is over there, go find her!"

Niu Dali shook off Wang Gang's hand and said drunkenly: "I won't go over. I want to drink with Wang Xin. I want to ask him how to please girls. His father hurt Ma Yan's father like that, and they are still together?!"

Wang Xin's face, which was originally red, turned pale in an instant.

Wang Gang said to Niu Dali with a gloomy face: "Don't make trouble. My uncle is getting married today. If you dare to say a word again, I will make you get out of the compound."

Wu Changgui, who was sitting at the next table, noticed something was wrong and quickly ran over to smooth things over.

"Da Li, why are you here? I wanted to have a drinking contest with you! Come on, come to our table."

In the compound, Wu Changgui and Niu Dali have the closest relationship because they have frequent contact at work.

Niu Dali stared at Wang Gang unyieldingly, totally ignoring Wu Changgui's good intentions.

"Being a police officer is so great! Just because you're a police officer you can bully people!" Niu Dali shouted loudly: "I'm standing right here, let's see how you drive me out of the compound."

The commotion here was finally noticed by the bride and groom at the main table, and the lively banquet suddenly became quiet.
