Villagers saw Er Zhu and nodded in greeting one after another, only the Liu family members living in other villages felt puzzled.
Despite their confusion, it was a joyous occasion, so they didn't say anything, merely casting strange glances at Er Zhu.
"You fool, where are you sitting? This is the VIP section!"
Just as Er Zhu was about to sit down, a beautiful woman beside him yanked the stool from behind him, glaring at him impatiently.
Er Zhu recognized her; she was Liu Daming's cousin and one of his wealthier relatives.
It was rumored she had built over a dozen greenhouses, supplying exclusively to several star-rated hotels.
"Liu Fang, let Er Zhu sit here. Where he sits doesn't matter, does it?"
Liu Da Shen, Liu Daming's mother, saw Liu Fang about to continue her taunts and quickly stood up to speak for Er Zhu.
Although Er Zhu was considered a fool, he had helped their Liu family immensely.
Besides, Er Zhu didn't seem like a fool anymore, but no one had brought it up, and she hadn't asked.
"Aunt, that won't do. How can a fool sit in the VIP section? It's generous enough to even let him come!"
Liu Da Shen opened her mouth, wanting to retort, but for a moment, she didn't know what to say. She could only nod apologetically at Er Zhu. Er Zhu didn't mind and grabbed another stool to sit down.
Most people at this table were from outside the village; he was too lazy to explain, let alone listen to their pointless mockery.
"Tsk, who told you to sit here? Bad luck! Get out!"
Seeing that Er Zhu not only didn't leave but actually sat down, Liu Fang impatiently shooed him away, trying to pull out the stool from under him. But even with her face red, the stool didn't budge!
"Er Zhu, be a good boy, go to that table. That's the best one, with plenty of people to play with."
Seeing that Er Zhu wasn't leaving, a woman sitting next to him had a flash of inspiration. She spoke to him as if coaxing a child, pointing to a table in the corner.
Although she appeared kind and amiable, Er Zhu still saw disdain in her eyes.
Damn it, they really think I'm an idiot!
"Yes, yes, that table is great, it's quiet there!"
Liu Fang hadn't reacted yet, but suddenly, as if guessing something, she also nodded in agreement.
Someone like Er Zhu, a fool, should be seated in a secluded corner to prevent him from embarrassing them. What was Daming thinking, arranging him in the VIP section!
While coaxing Er Zhu, Liu Fang glanced at Liu Daming, who was busy outside, her eyes rolling almost out of their sockets.
Liu Da Shen sat beside them. She knew what Liu Fang and the others meant, but each time she opened her mouth, she didn't know what to say.
"Liu Fang, what are you doing? Er Zhu's seat is right here. Why are you trying to drive him away? I'm telling you, if you push him away, you can get out!"
Just as Er Zhu was about to play dumb and get through this, Liu Daming saw the scene. He closed the car door and walked towards Er Zhu.
"Liu Daming, do you have any sense? With a fool sitting here, if you don't find it embarrassing, I do!"
Liu Fang was also full of anger. Her face instantly darkened, and she shouted at Liu Daming.
"That's right, Daming. I know Er Zhu is from your village, but it's really not appropriate for him to sit here. It'll make people laugh!"
Liu Fang wanted to say more, and the woman who had tried to chase Er Zhu away earlier also stood up and explained in a low voice.
Other relatives from outside the village also gathered around, nodding in agreement. Only the villagers from Shiliu Village gathered angrily, casting a shadow over the happy wedding and making the atmosphere incredibly tense!
Only two people sat there, unmoving, as if none of it concerned them.
"Alright, everyone stop talking. Er Zhu is sitting here today, and whoever is not satisfied can get out!"
Liu Daming was overwhelmed by the commotion and shouted impatiently, his eyes full of fury.
"Fine, we'll leave. Who do you think is eager to come to your lousy wedding? Inviting a fool as a VIP, I think you're even dumber than a fool!"
After a brief silence, Liu Fang grabbed her bag from the table and, muttering curses, prepared to leave.
Who hosts wedding banquets at home these days? If not for Liu Daming being a relative, she wouldn't have come even if carried by eight palanquins!
And to sit at the same table as a fool, she thought it was just bad luck!
Several other guests also picked up their belongings, wanting to leave. Liu Daming's face was grim, and the atmosphere became awkward.
"Who said our Er Zhu is a fool?"
Just as Liu Fang and the others were about to leave, an old voice suddenly came from the crowd. The guests made way, and Uncle Liu, hunched over, slowly walked over.
"Oh, Uncle Liu is here!"
Seeing Uncle Liu, Liu Fang's scornful and angry face instantly bloomed into a smile, and she eagerly went to greet him.
Liu Daming's expression worsened; he wished he could throw Liu Fang out!
How could their Liu family have such a snobbish person, it was truly embarrassing!
"Get away. I'm not familiar with you."
As Liu Fang reached out to help Uncle Liu, he flicked his arm away with a disgusted gesture. Liu Fang's smile froze, and a trace of embarrassment flashed in her eyes.
"If it weren't for Er Zhu, Daming wouldn't be able to get married today. Er Zhu sitting here is perfectly reasonable!"
Uncle Liu gently patted Er Zhu's shoulder and scanned the crowd. His voice was calm but powerful!
"Yes, Er Zhu is a VIP in any family in our village, because without him, we wouldn't be here today!"
Just as Liu Fang was about to retort, a villager from Shiliu Village stood up and said gratefully, looking at Er Zhu.
"Exactly, Er Zhu is the village's richest man, he deserves to sit there!"
Sun Er Niang also stood up. She glared at Liu Fang and the others as if they were her mortal enemies. If looks could kill, Liu Fang and the others would have been dead by now!
Er Zhu is the village's richest man!
Hearing this, Liu Fang looked at Er Zhu in disbelief. A flicker of shock crossed her eyes.
Isn't this Er Zhu a fool? How could a fool become the village's richest man...
"Hahaha, your village is really interesting, having a fool as the richest man!"
"Hahaha... Liu... Hahahaha..."
"Hahaha, I don't think you should be called Shiliu Village, you should be called Fool Village, a village of big fools!"
...
After the shock came bursts of mocking laughter, especially from Liu Fang. Uncle Liu felt she was about to burst from laughing!
All the villagers from Shiliu Village stared furiously at Liu Fang and the others. If it weren't for it being Liu Daming's big day, they would have already taken action!
And Er Zhu, he merely glanced contemptuously at Liu Fang and the others, saying nothing.
Big fools?
Aren't they the big fools?
Especially Liu Fang, who supplies to Qingya Hotel.
Qingya Hotel was the predecessor of Wang Xiaomei's family hotel. After Er Zhu bought it, he changed the name.
