Chapter 422: Taking Care of the Aftermath
After Ning Yuan and his friends entered the yard, they saw the neighbors gathered in the pavilion on the corridor to enjoy the cool air.
Ning Wanli and his group of old men seemed to have finished their conversation and were sitting in the yard smoking.
The other group consisted of female comrades whom Aunt Fat helped to greet.
There were plenty of melon seeds, peanuts, cut watermelon, and Beibingyang soda that was directly wholesaled for Ningyuan's wedding.
So everyone gathered here, eating, drinking, talking and laughing, it was very lively.
Ning Yuan's mother, Zhong Yan, was not here. She must be sitting in the room with Meng Qing and her parents.
There's nothing we can do. It's his fault that as a son, he can't even calm down on his wedding day. As parents, we have to worry more!
After Ning Yuan, Zhong Yuemin, Fatty Fan and others returned to the yard, they were immediately surrounded by the neighbors.
"Good boy, you still remember to come back? What day is it today? You've been gone for such a long time!"
Ning Wanli, Zhong Shanyue and other old men also came over and scolded Ning Yuan.
Although everyone felt a little sorry that Ning Yuan was not in the bridal chamber in the afternoon and there was no wedding night, fortunately Ning Wanli and Zhong Yan prepared enough food and snacks.
Everyone had been eating and drinking for the whole afternoon and their mouths were full, so naturally no one would worry about this matter.
So, after seeing Ning Wanli scolding Ning Yuan like that, everyone quickly spoke up to defend him.
Zhong Shanyue was the general manager of Ning Yuan's wedding. In addition, he and Ning Wanli were old comrades-in-arms for many years, so it was natural for him to speak.
"Hey, Old Ning, come on, it's such a happy day today, why are you getting mad at the kid? Dayuan is already a married man, a grown-up. It's normal for young people to have their own affairs, isn't it?"
Of course, Ning Wanli didn't really want to scold his son, but he had to show his attitude in front of so many neighbors.
The fat aunt also immediately protected Ning Yuan and spoke to Ning Wanli.
"Alright, alright, the kids are back. Stop blocking the way here and let them go inside!"
After the fat aunt said this, the crowd dispersed and the atmosphere of noisy conversation and laughter returned to normal.
Ning Yuan and Zhong Yuemin and their brothers entered the house together.
There is still fruit on the table. I have been busy all afternoon and haven’t had a chance to drink water.
It would have been fine if we didn’t see any fruit, but when we did, we immediately felt very thirsty.
Apples, oranges and watermelons, the guys didn't hesitate to sit down and started eating.
Zhong Yan, who was sitting in the house chatting with Meng Qing and her family, came out after hearing the noise in the living room.
After seeing that it was Ning Yuan and Ning Wei who came back, he was originally planning to give them a lecture with a stern face, but when he saw that these guys looked extremely thirsty, he immediately softened his heart.
"Eat slowly, kids. Dayuan, go to the utility room and bring over another case of soda. Also, let your little brothers quench their thirst first. I'll go boil some water!"
After hearing his mother's call, Ning Yuan quickly threw the orange slices in his hand into his mouth, stood up and said to his mother.
"Mom, don't bother. I'll just go get some soda. No one wants hot water. It's so hot out here, soda is just the thing to quench your thirst!"
"Mom, go inside and tell Meng Qing and the others. I'll just talk to my friends here for a few minutes and then I'll go inside!"
Zhong Yan shook her head helplessly at her eldest son and walked back into the house.
Ning Yuan quickly walked to the utility room and brought back a box of Arctic Ocean soda.
Orange-flavored soda, although the weather was hot and the soda was not cold enough, it was still very thirst-quenching to drink.
Fatty Fan and the others didn't need any instructions at all. They all took out the soda from the box, bit open the bottle caps, and poured it directly into their mouths.
“Gulp gulp~~”
Many of the buddies drank heartily, which quenched their thirst.
If it’s not satisfying enough, there’s more in the box, just keep drinking.
Ning Yuan asked everyone to sit down again, and then he gave instructions to Feng Sanyuan.
"Old Feng, go to the power plant later and get Chen Liangzi over here. Drive over there. The jeep you drove from work is still at the gate!"
Feng Sanyuan didn't ask any more questions, just nodded, and walked out of the yard with the newly opened bottle of soda in his hand.
Zhong Yuemin, Fatty Fan, Xiao Yang, Sun Kegong and others also stopped eating and drinking and looked at Ning Yuan.
Ning Yuan glanced towards the inner room and then spoke to his brothers.
"After we disperse tonight, guys, don't go wandering around while it's cool. Tell your guys to stop wandering around!"
Zhong Yuemin, Fatty Fan and the others nodded. After hesitating for a moment, Zhong Yuemin asked Ning Yuan in a low voice.
"Brother, what are you going to do with those knifemen under your command?"
Ning Yuan made a gesture for silence, looked cautiously towards the inner room behind him, then stood up and motioned everyone to follow him out.
After leaving the house, several people walked to a secluded place in the yard.
Ning Yuan then stopped, turned to look at his friends, and said seriously.
"Brothers, no matter who asks you, just say one thing: those people have nothing to do with us brothers, and we don't know them. Do you understand?"
"Don't worry buddy, no one is stupid!"
Zhong Yuemin was the first to speak in agreement.
"Well, besides, we really don't know those people. Damn, this is the first time we've met them!"
Xiao Yang said with a wry smile and shook his head.
This was actually the truth. Indeed, among the people present, only he and Sun Kegong did not know Zheng Liang, Wu Qiang and the others.
This is reasonable!
Ning Yuan nodded, then continued.
"This matter today could be big or small. I can't say for sure what will happen next, but, guys, just don't let anything slip. I'll handle the rest!"
Zhong Yuemin, Fatty Fan, Xiao Yang and the others all nodded.
When they heard Ning Yuan ask Feng Sanyuan to call Chen Liangzi over, they guessed that Ning Yuan was going to explain how to deal with those knifemen.
Except for Sun Kegong, who had known Ning Yuan for a relatively short time, the others knew Ning Yuan very well.
Therefore, they all concluded that Ning Yuan would definitely not care about the lives of those knifemen.
This is the charm of Ning Yuan's personality. He will not abandon his brothers easily. Whenever someone does something for him, he will definitely take care of the aftermath for them, and he is extremely generous!
After a brief explanation, Ning Yuan led everyone back to the house.
Zhong Yuemin and the others naturally sat in the living room eating and drinking.
Ning Yuan hurried into the inner room and apologized to his father-in-law and mother-in-law as soon as he entered.
