"Be careful, or you'll end up smelling like cooking oil all over yourself, and the bride will be disgusted."

"Don't worry about things here, I'll keep an eye on things for you. You should go to the front yard and keep the guests company."

Seeing that Sha Zhu refused, Li Chaoyang said with a smile, "He Yuzhu, you don't need to be so polite with me."

"Besides, I'd like to cook one of my signature dishes for your wedding today."

Sha Zhu said embarrassedly, "You have already helped Ran Qiuye and me a lot."

"You helped us buy all the food for this banquet, and I am already very grateful to you."

"We would feel even more embarrassed to ask you to cook for us again."

The chefs who were helping out were also Sha Zhu's usual work buddies, and they smiled and said, "You can all go out now."

"Leave this to me, you can rest assured."

After listening to what Sha Zhu and the others said, Li Chaoyang thought to himself: handing Ran Qiuye over to Sha Zhu was really a good choice.

Sha Zhu is not only a superb cook, but he is also straightforward and kind-hearted, though he has a foul mouth.

But he is definitely someone you can entrust your life to.

Li Chaoyang patted Sha Zhu on the shoulder and said, "He Yuzhu, don't be shy with me."

"As long as you treat Ran Qiuye well in the future, that's enough."

Sha Zhu nodded and said to Li Chaoyang, "You can rest assured about that. After I marry Ran Qiuye..."

"We're husband and wife now, I'll definitely treat her well."

"And I will also be good to the baby in her belly."

After hearing what Sha Zhu said, Li Chaoyang felt once again that his decision was correct.

Li Chaoyang said to Sha Zhu, "Alright, Comrade He Yuzhu, please leave now."

"Get out of here quickly, everyone is waiting for you, the groom."

Then he turned to the chef who had just spoken and said, "Chef, let's start cooking."

"The big guys outside can't wait to eat the feast we've prepared."

"But later, I'll need you to help me out, since you're more professional than me when it comes to cooking."

After saying that, Li Chaoyang and the chef started preparing the dishes for the banquet.

Sha Zhu looked around and saw that the kitchen was indeed very well prepared, and with Li Chaoyang there to supervise him, he didn't make a fuss.

After all, marriage is a big deal, and there are too many things for him to worry about and take care of.

So he turned around and left decisively.

Watching Sha Zhu's departing figure, Li Chaoyang revealed a faint smile.

At this moment, the courtyard of the siheyuan was already full of people. The eldest uncle, the second uncle, and the third uncle all sat with Director Wang in the main seat.

Of course, this also includes Yu Haitang, Xu Damao, and the bride Ran Qiuye.

Sha Zhu left the kitchen and, amidst the blessings of his neighbors, sat down next to Ran Qiuye.

Just then, an old man said, "Silly Zhu, you're really lucky."

"To be able to marry such a beautiful woman as Ran Qiuye as my wife."

Uncle Er, who hadn't managed to get a word in with Director Wang, quickly chimed in, "You're right, Director Wang. Look how lucky Sha Zhu is!"

"This young man must have accumulated a lot of good fortune in his past lives to be able to marry such a beautiful bride as Ran Qiuye."

Factory Director Wang was staring intently at Yu Haitang, seemingly oblivious to what the two old men were saying.

But Xu Damao, who was standing nearby, heard this. He rolled his eyes and thought disdainfully, "What do you old guys know?"

The good fortune that Sha Zhu earned is something I didn't want, so I gave it to Sha Zhu.

Besides, the child in Ran Qiuye's belly isn't Sha Zhu's.

Only you bunch of fools don't know, you're still kept in the dark.

Thinking this, Xu Damao turned to look at Ran Qiuye, feeling increasingly resentful. Such a beautiful woman, and she actually got lucky with He Yuzhu.

Xu Damao said slowly, "What the old man said is right, Shazhu is really lucky."

"Only then could I marry a wife like Ran Qiuyue, who is both beautiful and cultured."

"I wonder what kind of methods the usually honest and simple-minded Sha Zhu used to win over such a beauty."

"You've finally caught up with him, Sha Zhu, shouldn't you tell us about it?"

Sha Zhu and Ran Qiuye certainly understood what Xu Damao meant by those words.

However, they didn't know how to answer Xu Damao.

The other onlookers also egged them on, urging the two to talk about their relationship.

After all, in this era, moral standards are still strictly enforced, and men and women cannot get together casually.

Everyone is relatively naive, but when faced with each couple, they can't resist their fantasies and curiosity about love.

So everyone was happy to tease these newcomers and listen to their stories.

Because Li Chaoyang arranged the marriages of Sha Zhu and Ran Qiuye.

Sha Zhu is the best possible match Li Chaoyang could find for Ran Qiuye.

So Sha Zhu glared at Xu Damao and said, "We were introduced by Li Chaoyang, so what?"

To be honest, Sha Zhu was still a little afraid that Xu Damao might say something inappropriate.

However, he didn't want to show his weakness in front of Ran Qiuye and let his wife look down on him.

Ran Qiuye remained silent, her face flushed, her head bowed, putting on a shy and bashful act.

Seeing the two of them like this, everyone else laughed good-naturedly.

But Xu Damao, unconvinced, continued, "Teacher Ran, what made you choose this old bachelor?"

Yu Haitang keenly sensed something was amiss, so she replied, "Xu Damao, why are you everywhere?"

"No one will think you're mute if you don't speak. Today is a big day for Teacher Ran and He Yuzhu."

"You can tease them a little, but don't go on and on. Didn't you see how red Teacher Ran's face is? 973 is practically bleeding."

Xu Damao was speechless and felt frustrated. He knew exactly what was going on, but he couldn't say it.

But in front of so many people, can't he speak up or refute?

He was the one who said, "Begonia, how can you talk to your Brother Xu like that?"

Yu Haitang said, "Xu Damao, stop trying to take advantage of me. Who do you think you are?"

"Don't try to get close to me. You're not the kind of person to call me 'Begonia.' You're not afraid the organization will come after you, but I am."

"Besides, how else do you expect me to talk to you?"

Xu Damao did not expect that Yu Haitang would not give him any face in front of so many people.

He was very unhappy. He already felt uncomfortable seeing Sha Zhu and Ran Qiuye get married.

Now, Xu Damao's anger was rising rapidly.

He thought to himself: Yu Haitang, don't be so smug. Once I've won you over, let's see what you can do to me.

I'll show you how powerful I am then, hehehe.

At this moment, Director Wang suddenly said with a smile, "Comrade Yu Haitang is right, Xu Damao, don't try to get close to Haitang."

"We still need to pay attention to issues of conduct."

"Otherwise, if something really happens, I can't protect you."

Factory Director Wang will certainly not waste any opportunity to exercise his power.

He couldn't do anything to Li Chaoyang, but he could easily use his position as factory director to put Xu Damao under pressure.

Seeing this, the old man also felt that Xu Damao was being a bit unreasonable today. How would others view him? They would definitely think that he hadn't managed the courtyard well.

So, the old man also put on a serious face and chimed in, "Xu Damao, you're the most curious of all. You want to know everything."

The second uncle thought to himself, "This is my chance to show off in front of Director Wang."

He quickly chimed in, "Xu Damao, today is Ran Qiuye and Shazhu's wedding. You should stop making a fuss and stop joining in the commotion."

But the Third Uncle's mind wasn't on these trivial matters at all; what he really wanted to know was what Factory Director Wang had promised Li Chaoyang.

Li Chaoyang now wields considerable influence in the courtyard house, and is said to be just as powerful in the factory as he is.

Now, even Director Wang has been having private dealings with Li Chaoyang... The Third Uncle turned to look at Director Wang.

He asked, "Director Wang, I just saw Li Chaoyang and you together in his room."
