Chapter 73: I just want to wait on my husband for a lifetime~

And then, when it was time to eat, a miraculous scene occurred.

Many people whom Lu Yuan didn't even know came over, saying they wanted to come to his house for the wedding feast.

Lu Yuan said there wasn't enough room; only a table for ten remained, and he still needed to invite more people.

But since these people came, they certainly didn't come for nothing.

He immediately suggested they give more gift money.

With these folks, Lu Yuan wasn't as polite as he was with the factory bosses; it wasn't simply a case of saying 'give more' and letting them come.

After all, these people aren't leaders, and they have no sense of decorum.

What if he now asks for more gift money, and when they show up they end up giving even more?

Then Lu Yuan would lose out.

So Lu Yuan just asked the price.

Later, the seats for those ten people ended up at fifteen yuan each.

Exactly, Lu Yuan sold the seats at one table for 150 yuan.

After finally confirming the seats for ten people, Lu Yuan then stopped.

This was voluntary on their part; Lu Yuan definitely didn't force them!

Meanwhile, the female workers nearby were completely dumbfounded.

No way……

This seat at Su Liyan's wedding…… starts at fifteen yuan??

Really or not……

When the meal was almost finished, some female workers suddenly looked worried and said to Lu Yuan:

"I… we don't have that much money for gift gifts… we still have to live."

Although everyone said their family circumstances were not bad, fifteen yuan for a gift is more than anyone can bear.

And the year's end is coming up; we need money at home too.

Regarding these female workers' remarks, Lu Yuan chuckled and said:

"My sisters, we're one family; you usually take such good care of my wife—how could I cheat you?"

That really is different.

After all, before Director Xu arrived as the big leader, these people were already willing to show up and support.

Willing to add to the liveliness.

Moreover, in the factory, these people also looked after Su Liyan.

Lu Yuan, though sometimes not much of a… uh… not that… sometimes he can be a bit scheming.

But he can still tell good people from bad……

How could Lu Yuan possibly scheme against these people?

Having said that, this table of male workers and the table of the newly added leaders have already let Lu Yuan eat his fill.

As for this table of female workers, whether they give gift money or not no longer matters.

Lu Yuan immediately said:

"Even if you don't give gift money, you're welcome to come anyway; I and Liyan welcome you.

Just look after my Liyan more in the future; she's from the countryside, doesn't know some things, so please teach her and show her around."

Lu Yuan's words were pleasing to everyone; the female workers' faces broke into smiles as they said:

"No need for you to say that; rest assured, we all treat Liyan as our sister, and we'll definitely take good care of her—no one in this factory would dare bully Liyan~"

Su Liyan leaned against Lu Yuan, her face full of happiness.

Su Liyan felt she was truly blessed; her husband's own qualities were already one in a million, and he's so eloquent and capable.

Marrying him, she has never been unhappy for a single day.

Being able to marry him must be the luckiest thing in her lifetime~

Meanwhile, Liu Jie also looked satisfied and said to Lu Yuan:

"Don't worry, these people can't afford fifteen yuan in gift money; two or three yuan to chip in for the fun is still fine. No one in the factory dares bully Liyan, but you—you'd better cherish your wife more from now on."

Everyone nodded repeatedly, yes, yes.

Everyone was still thinking about how Lu Yuan previously gave Su Liyan a monthly living allowance of five yuan.

But nobody thought it was unforgivable, after all, Lu Yuan used to be poor.

But now it's different—he also received a factory commendation with a bonus, plus the 150 yuan from arranging the banquet.

If Lu Yuan recovers from his illness and returns to work,

then he'll be quite well off.

Lu Yuan then grinned and said:

"Of course; it's my wife, so I definitely dote on her~"

Su Liyan also beamed with happiness and said:

"My older brother really dotes on me~"

Upon hearing Su Liyan's words, everyone couldn't help but laugh and look at her, saying:

"I think it's you who especially dotes on your husband!"

After lunch that noon, Lu Yuan wasn't in a hurry to go home; there was nothing to do back there, and he didn't plan to go fishing today.

Lu Yuan intended to stay a while longer at the factory to keep Su Liyan company.

Speaking of which, after the meal there is a one‑hour break.

Everyone usually just leans on their workstation and takes a nap.

After everyone had finished eating, when they went to the water tank to wash their lunch boxes, Lu Yuan stood aside smoking and waiting, while his wife helped him wash his lunch box.

The female workers nearby, seeing this scene, couldn't help but say:

"Why don't you let your husband wash it himself? He's not missing his hands."

Su Liyan was startled, then quickly replied:

"My husband has a stomach ailment; he can't work."

Many female workers responded with black lines on their faces:

"He has a stomach problem, not a hand problem—how can he not even wash a lunch box?"

Su Liyan, however, stubbornly shook her head and said:

"No, he's my husband, so he must not work; I have to attend to him. Even if he later has no stomach trouble, I will still attend to him—I'm willing to attend to him~"

Upon hearing this, the crowd laughed and scolded:

"You really are something—then you'll have to attend to him for the rest of your life!"

But Su Liyan, very seriously, nodded and said:

"I just want to attend to my husband for the rest of my life~"

Seeing Su Liyan's now earnest expression, the crowd found it a bit amusing, though they didn't say much more.

Originally, everyone was just joking around, with no particular intention.

Moreover… everyone thought, if their own husbands were like Lu Yuan—capable, eloquent, and good at humor—they would also be willing to attend to them.

When the crowd had finished washing their lunch boxes and were heading back,

Lu Yuan, however, saw Liu Erdao and Wang San……

No, it was Li Sanqiu and Wang Dajian.

These two didn't know what they had been busy with earlier; they were only now going to the cafeteria to eat.

Seeing these two people, Lu Yuan suddenly remembered something.

He hurriedly greeted them, saying:

"Hey, you two brothers are only just going to eat now?"

These two felt a bit embarrassed seeing Lu Yuan, but they couldn't show it on their faces.

I heard that this guy somehow pleased Director Xu earlier, making him happy—don't know how he did it.

The two nodded, but before they could say anything, Lu Yuan got straight to the point:

"Right, I know your families aren't well off; earlier it was my fault, brother—I'll make it up to you."

"Tomorrow brother is holding a feast at my home; if your family's situation is difficult, you don't need to come."

Upon hearing this, Wang Dajian and Li Sanqiu were both dumbfounded.

Ha?

There's still such a good thing??

The two were so delighted they couldn't contain themselves, and burst out laughing on the spot:

"Oh dear, brother, this is great—we two brothers have been waiting for you to say this!"

"Brother, we definitely won't go!"
