The past events were deeply etched in Zhu Yanli’s memory. "But we are Zhu family members, from the Zhu clan of Gǎn'ēn Village. Today is my big wedding day. Why must you talk about death and life? Honestly, Fourth Grandma, how deep is the grudge between us that you would come to disrupt such an important day for me?"
Gān Júhuā was speechless. She could not reveal that someone had instructed her to do this. She could only say, "You speak to me like this, a junior. Do you have any manners?"
"One speaks politely to those with manners. Speaking politely to those without manners is truly foolish as a pig. Fourth Grandma, do you think my sister and I are foolish as pigs?" Zhu Yanyi stepped forward and spoke slowly. Then she turned to Zhu Yanli and said, "Sister, since Fourth Grandpa and Fourth Grandma do not like your toast, do not toast them. Go toast others." She added, "Why say more to such people? It is better we just enjoy our own happiness."
Zhu Yanli nodded with a smile. She held Tàishū Yuánxiáng’s hand and walked directly past Zhū Guìfū and Gān Júhuā’s family to the next table to continue toasting.
"You… you…" Zhū Guìfū and Gān Júhuā did not expect Zhu Yanli to bypass them directly. One never skipped a table when toasting.
"Come, come. Fourth Grandpa, Fourth Grandma. Since you do not like my sister and brother-in-law’s toast, I will toast you." Zhu Yanyi smiled, holding a cup of wine. She placed it directly at Zhū Guìfū’s mouth. Before he could speak, Zhu Yanyi poured the wine accurately into his mouth.
"Cough, cough! What are you doing?" Zhū Guìfū did not expect Zhu Yanyi to do this. The wine nearly entered her windpipe.
"Old sayings are true. If you refuse the respectful wine, you must drink the penalty wine. You did not like my sister and brother-in-law’s toast, so you must want my penalty wine. I am generous," Zhu Yanyi said with a generous expression. "Since you want my penalty wine, I will prepare it well for you. Do not worry. One cup is not enough; I have a pot. If a pot is not enough, I will have people bring jars. I will make sure you enjoy it fully."
The villagers watching from nearby tables had already disapproved of Zhū Guìfū’s behavior. Now, seeing Zhu Yanyi’s action, they could only smile secretly.
If anyone else had done this, the elder relatives would have stopped them. But because it was Zhu Yanyi, they dared not intervene.
Although Zhu Yanyi’s photo had not appeared in the newspapers recently, the villagers still knew her news. She was the pride of the Zhu family in Gǎn'ēn Village. They absolutely could not offend her.
In contrast, Zhū Guìfū had always had a bad reputation among the clan. So, when Zhu Yanyi acted this way, they did not think she was wrong. Instead, they silently believed Zhū Guìfū deserved a lesson.
Zhu Yanyi smiled and said again, "Fourth Grandpa, do not worry about drinking too much. With me here, I guarantee you will have no problems. Come drinking healthy, go home to sleep safely."
The people at nearby tables heard this and drank and ate more enthusiastically, pretending not to see the situation. After all, Zhū Guìfū and her wife had been too excessive earlier. So, Zhu Yanyi dealing with them was understandable.
Since the Medical Buddha Girl had promised they would go home safely, no one thought there would be serious issues. The other Zhu family members present directly pretended not to see what was happening.
It must be said that Zhū Guìfū and his wife had failed miserably in how they treated people. If they had not caused such a scene, others might have ignored it.
Since Zhū Shùnyáo’s family had learned her true identity, the Zhu family in Gǎn'ēn Village knew the wrongs committed by Zhū Guìfū and her wife. They knew Zhū Shùnyáo’s mother had left five yellow fish before she passed away. Yet, these five yellow fish were not used for Zhū Shùnyáo. Instead, they had tormented her severely.
Zhū Shùnyáo’s success today was not due to anyone else’s merit. It was because Zhū Shùnyáo himself had ability. Moreover, this ability had benefited the hometown people and the clan.
So, if they had to choose between Zhū Guìfū and Zhū Shùnyáo, they would naturally choose Zhū Shùnyáo. They would never choose Zhū Guìfū. Besides, Zhu Yanyi had guaranteed their safety. This made others even less likely to intervene.
Even Zhū Ēnfū did not speak up. After all, Zhū Guìfū was wrong to bully a junior. If he did not want to attend the wedding, he should not have come. Since he came and deliberately caused trouble, it was his fault. So, Zhū Ēnfū only focused on his own matters and ignored the situation with Zhū Guìfū, pretending to be deaf and dumb.
Zhu Yanyi saw through this clearly. She was not worried that people here would cause her trouble. Zhū Guìfū’s character was too poor. There was no one in Gǎn'ēn Village who liked her family now.
Zhu Yanyi had long wanted to discipline this family. Previously, they had not caused major issues. But today was her sister’s big day, and they dared to make trouble. Did they think her family had no one?
Of course, Zhū Shùnyáo could have handled this. But even though Zhū Guìfū had abused Zhū Shùnyáo, Zhū Shùnyáo had grown up in the fourth branch. Therefore, even if angry, he could only express verbal anger. Open confrontation was impossible, though secret actions were another matter.
Zhu Yanyi was different. First, she was a generation removed. Second, her status was high. Not only Zhū Guìfū, but even if they wanted to change the clan leader, no one dared to resist. Zhu Yanyi was the Medical Buddha Girl, the Little Divine Doctor of Huáxià.
Zhu Yanyi smiled at Gān Júhuā and said, "Fourth Grandma, Fourth Grandpa has drunk my penalty wine. You should drink a cup too." Zhu Yanyi enthusiastically poured a cup of wine.
"No…" Gān Júhuā wanted to refuse. But Zhu Yanyi poured the wine directly into her mouth. The speed was so fast that Gān Júhuā had no chance to speak.
Gān Júhuā coughed and could only swallow it. The wine entered her throat. Fortunately, it was mellow Daughter’s Red wine, but some entered her windpipe, making her cough until tears came out.
After about ten seconds, both Zhū Guìfū and Gān Júhuā collapsed onto the table. Zhu Yanyi called out to Luó Gāng and others, "Brother Luo, come here with a few people. Help my Fourth Grandpa and Fourth Grandma rest inside. After drinking too much, rest is most important."
Others realized that Zhu Yanyi must have put something in the wine to prevent them from causing trouble later.
But this was good. Knowing they were not in danger, no one would interfere. Without Zhū Guìfū and Gān Júhuā, the atmosphere became even more lively.
