Chapter 492: Chapter 491: All Drunk (2nd Update)

And then, someone really started banging on the door; the wooden door banged loudly, almost unable to withstand the force.

"Sister Niannian, what should we do?" Xu Sisi shouted anxiously.

Then she added, "Ladies, hurry and block the door."

A group of girls giggled and excitedly ran to join in blocking the door, filling the room with laughter and cheer.

Xu Niannian, being pregnant, didn’t dare join the boisterous scene, so she automatically sat down next to Chen Xiaorou,

Watching their playful antics.

The noise from outside the door grew louder, and just when it seemed the girls could no longer hold it, Xu Niannian shouted out, "Jin Yu, I’m coming over to block the door."

Jin Yu, who was leisurely watching the commotion from outside, nearly had a heart attack when he heard her voice, and Xu Zhiqiang was also not a little scared.

Consequently, those big brothers pushing the door were pulled aside by Xu Zhiqiang and Jin Yu, one in each hand.

With the banging silenced, Xu Niannian covered her mouth and laughed; oh, it really worked, and she was still sitting on the bed.

Seeing that nobody was pushing anymore, Xu Sisi gave Xu Niannian a thumbs up, "Sister Niannian, that was brilliant."

Xu Niannian stuck out her tongue, showing a rare childlike side, "You’ll learn to do the same later."

Xu Sisi nodded emphatically, completely agreeing.

The banging outside had stopped, and it was not possible for Xu Niannian and the others to actually keep Xu Zhiqiang out forever.

But they still had to give him a hard time.

Hiding the shoes happened as usual, then a group of girls crowded in front of Chen Xiaorou.

Xu Niannian stepped back automatically, not wanting to squeeze in with them.

Xu Sisi posed various questions to Xu Zhiqiang at the door, forcing him to praise Chen Xiaorou’s virtues and to make a declaration of love.

The result of Xu Zhiqiang’s confession was laughably awkward.

He stiffly bellowed, "I will try hard to like you."

Upon hearing this, everyone was stunned.

Amid the fun and chaos, Xu Zhiqiang eventually whisked Chen Xiaorou away.

Since the distance was short, there was no car; the bride couldn’t touch the ground, so Xu Zhiqiang carried Chen Xiaorou towards their new home near the factory building.

The procession moved impressively.

Jin Yu and Xu Niannian walked behind, with him witnessing Xu Niannian’s spirited walk despite her bulging belly, unable to resist holding her hand, insisting that she walk quietly by his side.

Xu Niannian, happy to see her brother getting married,

Wore a joyous smile that lit up her face, her eyes shining.

She even playfully swung Jin Yu’s hand as if she were still a child.

Meanwhile, Xu Sisi was energetically running ahead of them while Jin Ruiyang followed her closely, trying to slip away from him like a cat trying to shake off sticky candy.

As for Ye Shaoting...

He was forgotten, as neither Jin Ruiyang nor Jin Yu paid him any attention.

He had come here because he’d received a transfer order to move to the capital.

When his superior mentioned that Jin Yu had returned to Nancheng, that’s why he had come looking for him.

He hadn’t anticipated that upon arrival, he would walk into Jin Yu’s uncle’s wedding.

Seeing the couples paired off, Ye Shaoting felt a tinge of envy.

He had once mocked Jin Yu, telling him he probably would never find a partner in his lifetime.

Yet now, Jin Yu had a child while he was still alone.

Moreover, the last man standing was him.

Jin Ruiyang even had someone he was aiming for; tsk, the world had changed indeed.

Back at the Xu Family’s place, it was even more lively, with tables and chairs set up on the large dam outside the factory.

Following the village tradition, Xu Zhiqiang and Chen Xiaorou had to toast the guests, of course, but they could also have drinking surrogates.

Yang Cuihua made it clear that Xu Zhiqiang and Chen Xiaorou were not allowed to get drunk tonight,

So they had to find stand-ins for drinking.

Chen Xiaorou had to find unmarried women, while Xu Zhiqiang had to find unmarried men.

Thus, Xu Sisi, who was standing to one side, was strangely pushed forward to become a surrogate drinker. Accompanying her in this duty was Zuo Qing, who volunteered for it.

Xu Sisi and Zuo Qing attentively followed behind Chen Xiaorou.

The two held wine cups in their hands.

Xu Sisi thought to herself, who am I, where am I, and what am I doing?

I’m still a child; why is my great-aunt so cruel?

Her memory flashed back to the moment when Yang Cuihua had come to find her, briskly pulling her away without a second’s hesitation to be a stand-in drinker.

Xu Erhong and Liu Guimei were still there at that time.

In Nancheng, especially in Qingshan Village, drinking customs are deeply revered.

Xu Sisi had wanted to resist, reaching out to Xu Erhong and pleading, "Dad, I don’t know how to drink."

Xu Erhong had slapped her on the hand and said angrily, "Are you suggesting that I should drink instead? That would be unfilial."

Their thoughts were not on the same wavelength.

Feeling hungry, Xu Niannian’s belly was already rumbling. Yang Cuihua, caring for her, knew she loved sweet wine rice cake, which coincidentally had been prepared that morning. Even with the day’s hustle, Yang Cuihua managed to make time to heat up a pot of sweet wine rice cake for Xu Niannian.

Xu Niannian happily ate two bowls of it and drank two bowls of Sweet Wine Soup as well.

After eating, all she wanted to do was sleep.

So much so that she even missed out on the room-disturbing festivities.

Jin Yu took Xu Niannian back to the room, saw her fall into bed ready for sleep, her face flushed red, and couldn’t help frowning, "Could she be drunk?"

After thinking about it, Jin Yu felt it was unlikely.

The alcohol content in sweet wine is very low, and after being boiled at high temperatures, that negligible amount of alcohol would have evaporated; there was no alcohol left at all.

Otherwise, Jin Yu wouldn’t have allowed her to drink it.

However, Jin Yu didn’t know that Xu Niannian’s constitution was unusually special due to having consumed water from the space, which made her particularly susceptible.

Although the sweet wine contained no alcohol, its aroma was enough.

Anything related to the word ’wine’, she could get intoxicated by, provided the quantity was sufficient.
