Reborn as a Superpower Girl in the 80s
Chapter 992: One, Two Up, Can’t Get Up

Around ten thirty, the sound of firecrackers could be heard at the compound’s main gate, and someone shouted loudly, "The bridal procession has returned, the bride has arrived."

This was the factory director’s son marrying a bride, spectators gathered everywhere, all eyes were on the dowry items on the car, which included three large items, a washing machine, a refrigerator, and a motorcycle.

It was clear everything was prearranged as there was already a television at home. All the betrothal gifts had been spent, and a motorcycle had been added.

Luo Siyuan, carrying his bride, was intercepted by people teasing the newlyweds in the courtyard. Fortunately, Luo Siyan and Luo Xuyuan were strong enough to pull Luo Siyuan out from the crowd, blocking those creating a ruckus, finally allowing him to carry his bride into the bridal room without interruption.

As soon as he put down his bride, the people who teased the newlyweds caught up, handing out wedding candies and cigarettes, eventually leaving the couple be. At this moment, the person in charge came over to call the couple down for ceremonial rites.

The rituals were standard, originally it was to bow to the parents, but Luo Siyuan insisted that his grandparents sit at the top, followed by bowing to the guests, then the couple bowing to each other, and the ceremony was complete!

Then someone announced to the guests, "Please move to Jinyuan Grand Hotel in Jinyuan Garden, head directly to the Peony Hall, the wedding banquet will be held there."

The celebration was lively, but today Luo Haotian, the father, had drunk too much. When he exited the restroom, he took the wrong direction and vomited on one side of the corridor.

Gu Qianru, after exiting the restroom, heard some noise and curiously went over, saw Luo Haotian vomiting and staggering, and tried to call for help, but there was no one around at that moment.

She turned to call for someone, but seeing Luo Haotian, being tall, shaking severely while leaning on the handrail, she feared he might fall down, so she went over to lead him to a safe area.

She had just approached and was supporting him away from that spot when he blurted out, "Hello, my dear aunt-in-law, enjoy your food and drink."

Then his body swayed, almost pulling her to the ground; Luo Haotian then fell asleep. Gu Qianru was distressed as she could not hold him by herself. If it weren’t for him leaning against the wall and her clinging to him desperately, he would have ended up on the floor.

At that moment, Luo Qiao’s granduncles and uncles arrived, who also appeared quite drunk.

Gu Qianru couldn’t worry about formalities, she hurriedly called them over for help. The four managed to recognize Luo Haoqing who squinted hard, "Did my second brother drink too much?"

Gu Qianru, sweat on her forehead, responded, "Quick, come and catch him, I really can’t hold him."

But just as they approached, Luo Haotian slid down the wall. Gu Qianru, seeing that his relatives had arrived, let go and stepped aside.

The four were eager to help; the eldest uncle, Luo Haoxuan, instructed, "Everyone lend a hand, let’s help him back to the sofa in the hall."

However, they overestimated themselves as each one was unsteady from drinking. The four did manage to lift him, but less than a foot off the ground, he fell again.

Ning Hongda even rubbed his head, slurring, "Why can’t we lift him, he’s so heavy."

Yet they were persistent, trying to lift him three or four times, but each attempt failed just as he was raised, nearly crushing him, which terrified Gu Qianru enough not to let them continue.

She quickly summoned Luo Xuyuan and Lu Yichen who were seeing off guests, "Quick, come over, your dad is drunk."

Luo Xuyuan and others arrived to see the granduncles and uncles chanting a rhythm, "One, two, lift, can’t lift."

Frightened, they hurried over to lead the four elders away, allowing their cousins to take over.

When they returned, they saw their brother-in-law was already carrying the man, quickly assigned their younger brother, Luo Siyan, to help him take the man back.

The feast had ended, leaving only the cleanup. Watching their father being carried away by their brother-in-law, Luo Xuyuan felt an inexplicable heartache. His father should have been happy today, with all his children settled, but he probably also felt lonely.

Luo Siyuan had mentioned a few days ago that after the wedding, they might not stay long in the Mechanical Factory Residential Compound, as it was too far from the maternal and infant product factory, making it inconvenient for Luo Siyuan’s wife, Yan Qiu, to commute to and from work. Hence, they planned to live in the compound where Yan Qiu had lived before.

In the future, only their father would be at the Mechanical Factory Residential Compound.

He sighed, thinking about gathering everyone later to discuss what to do next.

Just as he was about to check if there was anything else to be done, he saw his grandaunt and aunt helping their grandparents walk out from inside.

The grandaunt smiled, "Xuyuan, let’s go, let’s head back. Luo Qiao has already arranged for someone to handle everything here, no need for us to be busy anymore."
