I am doing well in the Siheyuan

11 noon.

Ye Ming brought Ran Qiuye and slowly came to the scene.

The neighbors who were watching immediately gathered around.

Lou Xiao'e stood aside, watching the two people being surrounded by the crowd and entering the house, trying hard to accept it all.

Mrs. Tan knew her daughter's thoughts very well, but others should not interfere too much in matters of the heart.

The deaf old lady rarely came out to watch the fun, and when she saw Lou Xiao'e, a light suddenly flashed in her eyes, as if she was thinking about something.

"Huh, you thought being a deputy director was so great, but on such an important day as your wedding, you can only pick up your bride on a bicycle. You can't even borrow a jeep." Jia Zhang and Bang Geng sneered at the side.

Mrs. Han couldn't stand it, so she walked past Jia Zhang and scolded her, "Oh, I don't know what you are complaining about. Ye Ming can become a deputy director at the age of 20. How many people with this ability can you find in Nanluoguxiang, let alone in the whole city?"

Liu Haizhong and Aunt Er were also watching the ceremony nearby.

They dare not offend Ye Ming easily now, so they can only keep this account in mind for the time being and settle it later.

He is just a deputy director. On his wedding day, Director Yang refused to lend him even a car. It seems that their relationship is not as close as rumored by the outside world.

With Ye Ming's political acumen, his turnaround is just around the corner.

After welcoming Ran Qiuye home, the next step was a series of established wedding procedures.

The guests took their seats one after another, and the three courtyards in front and back were filled with banquets.

In the next courtyard, except for Yan Bugui who was able to come in for the banquet thanks to Ran Qiuye, everyone else could only watch.

"Grandma, there are so many empty seats inside. I also want to go in and eat something delicious." Banggeng pointed to a few empty tables in the yard. The aroma of meat had already wafted to his nose.

"Who knows what he is up to? I also want to eat good food, but this kid doesn't give me face. What can I do?" Not only the Jia family, but also the residents in the next yard have complaints about Ye Ming.

"After all, they have lived in the same courtyard for ten or twenty years, but they didn't even invite us to drink at their wedding."

"Who said it wasn't true? We also helped with his family's funeral. If we had known that this guy was an ungrateful person, we shouldn't have meddled in his affairs."

"He is now the deputy director of the steel mill. We can't even get close to him."

"So what if he's the deputy director? The deputy director has already fallen. He has done things so ruthlessly that this day will come sooner or later."

"I heard that Ye Ming bought a lot of things for his wedding, including a bicycle, a radio, a sewing machine, and new furniture. He has been picking up junk for the past six months. He only earned so little money every month before. These things must have cost at least 400 yuan, right? Where did he get so much money?"

"what do you mean……"

The man lowered his voice and said seriously: "Even if it is Director Yang, it is impossible for him to lend him so much money by himself. If he didn't embezzle, where did all this money come from?"

"Come on, gossiping on such a happy day, aren't you afraid of retribution?" The deaf old lady couldn't bear to listen any more and her face became gloomy.

How did a compound that was once harmonious become like this...

"You keep mentioning little favors every day. If you hadn't joined forces to drive that person away, there wouldn't be so much trouble today. You can cause so much trouble just because of a meal!" The old lady's words were sharp and no one dared to respond.

Jia Zhang was still unyielding, "Even if we were wrong first, you are the old lady of this courtyard. Even if you don't invite us to the banquet, you should accept the glass of wine we offer."

The old lady saw through his intentions and responded with a sneer: "Don't even think about using my reputation to back you up. I can't afford to lose this person!"

Looking back on the past, the old lady realized too late that the mistake had already been made.

She had the chance to make amends, but in order to protect Sha Zhu, she chose to remain silent.

If I had known that this one wrong thought would plunge the entire yard into chaos, I should not have turned a deaf ear and dumb.

She will bear this mistake for the rest of her life.

"Xiao Ye, Director Yang's car is here." With this shout, all discussions inside and outside the compound came to an abrupt end.

Ye Ming exchanged glances with Ran's father and mother, and walked forward together.

"Haha, congratulations. I've been busy at the factory and only just arrived now. Please don't despise this little gift."

"Director Yang, you are so kind. We are very grateful that you can attend Xiaoye and Qiuye's wedding despite your busy schedule. What gifts do you have? Please come in."

Ye Ming's parents had passed away, so the responsibility of receiving distinguished guests naturally fell on Ran's father's shoulders.

After a few greetings, when everyone was about to take their seats, the roar of a jeep was heard from the alley again.

"Hey, why is it so lively?" A strange leader approached, and Ran's father and the onlookers were stunned for a moment.

Although I didn't know him, I could tell from the jeep he was riding in that his status was at least not lower than that of Director Yang.

"Director Wang, you are here too?" Director Yang recognized the person and walked forward with a smile.

"It's Master Ye's big wedding day, how can I not come and have a drink?" Ye Ming greeted with a smile on his face.

"Director Wang, why are you alone? Didn't your sister-in-law come with you?"

"Why bring her here? You have to prepare an extra gift. The treatment in our Municipal Law Office is not as good as your kitchen."

"How can that be possible? Your presence is the best gift. Please come in." Ye Ming chatted and laughed with the leader, and the surroundings suddenly became quiet.

"Did you hear clearly just now? Who is this leader?" Cheng Jianjun's father asked Cheng's mother in a low voice.

"It seems to be an office in the city. He should hold a high position, right? How could this guy know such a high-level leader? And it seems that they have a close relationship."

Not only were they confused, but Liu Haizhong, Yan Bugui and others were also bewildered.

The deaf old lady's face was full of worry. She had long realized that Ye Ming was no ordinary person, but she didn't expect that he had already made the acquaintance of such a high-level leader.

It's only been half a year...

Father Ran mistakenly thought that this was the leader that Ye Ming had taken Ran Qiuye to meet before, and the smile on his face became even brighter.

"Don't worry, Chief Sun's car will be here soon." Just as Director Wang finished speaking, the roar of a car was heard again in the alley.

Soon, a middle-aged man wearing glasses walked into the scene carrying gifts.

"Haha, Master Ye, congratulations. The banquet hasn't started yet, right? I put aside all my work and came here just to show my support for you!"

Hearing this, everyone's eyes lit up.

"Chief Sun, you are too polite. It is never too late for you to come." Ye Ming greeted the other party with a smile.

"Haha, that sounds good. Oh, this must be the bride. What a perfect match. Master Ye, you are so lucky."

Seeing that Section Chief Sun brought the topic to himself, Ran Qiuye hurried forward to greet him.
