Comfortable life in Siheyuan

In the middle courtyard of the Jia family, Qin Huairu, her mother and her two daughters worked in the kitchen for more than half an hour before they finally prepared all the dishes.

When the dishes were served, Bang Geng still hadn't come back.

The Jia family members all tacitly did not pick up their chopsticks and started chatting about some happy things.

After the dishes were completely cold, Bang Geng came in from outside.

"Banggeng, you're back. I've been waiting for you for a long time. Hurry up and wash your hands and get ready to eat! I'll go heat up the dishes." Qin Huairu was holding a dish and was about to go to the kitchen.

"No, I'm not hungry!" Seeing that there was someone in the room, Banggeng turned around and went back to the room.

Qin Huairu's movements of carrying the dishes paused.

The Jia family’s dinner began in this somewhat depressing atmosphere.

"Mom, why did my brother think of going to Wang's house? So many days have passed, and I haven't seen him do anything? What happened to him today?" Xiao Dang tried to hold it in for a long time, but still couldn't help asking.

"You must feel bad seeing that young couple being so happy and harmonious! Today at the table, he and Xu Erhu both drank nearly half a catty of wine!" Qin Huairu explained helplessly.

Even so, Qin Huairu had to stop him, otherwise Bang Geng would have drunk too much and lay down.

"I don't know when my brother will cheer up. It makes me sad to see him like this." Huaihua put down her chopsticks. She really had no appetite.

"Let's not talk about this anymore, let's talk about something else..." Seeing that the atmosphere was solemn, Xiaozhuang began to try to change the subject.

"By the way, is Erhu from the Xu family married? I remember he is about the same age as me." Huaihua understood what her husband meant and followed suit.

"You're not married yet. You drank so much with your brother today. I guess you must be feeling depressed!" Qin Huairu explained.

"The Xu family is well off! This shouldn't be the case!" Xiao Dang also felt a little strange.

"I guess he will rush to find a blind date when he goes back today. Xu Erhu has good qualities, if I really want to find him, there is no way he, a college student, will be single." Qin Huairu thought about Sun Xiaoyan's reaction today and said.

"You have to hurry up. It's time to get old."

At the Xu family, Xu Erhu couldn't hold his liquor well, and he drank alone today, so he just fell asleep now.

After opening his eyes and looking at the water on the bedside, Xu Erhu felt his mouth dry.

After taking a big sip of water, Xu Erhu climbed out of bed. Just as he walked to the door, he heard his parents arguing outside.

"Xu Damao, are you going to take care of Erhu's marriage? The child doesn't even want to come home now, how can he go on a blind date and find a partner?" Sun Xiaoyan's voice was not loud, but Xu Erhu heard it clearly.

"Am I not also trying to find a solution? The child doesn't want to come back, and I have no place to put my energy!" Xu Damao also felt wronged.

"Buy Erhu a house near the school! He can live there when he finds a partner and gets married. This way, I won't have to control you drinking. I won't have to worry about you making a fool of yourself!" Sun Xiaoyan changed the subject and spoke out what was in her mind.

"Our place is so big, isn't it enough for us to live in? With more than ten rooms, there's no need to buy another one!" Xu Damao didn't want to buy this house. If Erhu moved out again, his Sun Xiaoyan might run away one day.

"Xu Damao, we have been together for more than 20 years. I know your character and your worries. Don't worry, we will spend our lives together like this and will not leave each other. Besides, I don't want to ask too much about your affairs. I am not that interested.

But these two sons are my roots, you must take good care of them, otherwise I will not serve you." Sun Xiaoyan said solemnly.

Xu Damao was silent and didn't say a word for a long time.

Xu Erhu, who was in the room, couldn't help but shed tears as he listened to his mother's words.

Xu Erhu hasn't come back much during this period, mainly because he is angry with his stepfather Xu Damao.

Now I feel very sad when I hear my mother say this.

Xu Damao slowly stood up, stared at Sun Xiaoyan for a long time, and said slowly: "I'll go and look for the house. Erhu's marriage should also be arranged as soon as possible. You know me, I really care about these two sons. As for the other things, find a matchmaker to arrange a blind date for him, you should hurry up!"

Sun Xiaoyan then breathed a sigh of relief and nodded.

Xu Erhu had no intention of going out at this time, so he went back to bed and lay there for a long time before coming out.

"Erhu is awake? You can't drink much, drink less!" Sun Xiaoyan warned with a hint of blame.

"Got it, Mom! I won't do it again next time!"

Xu Damao came out of the house when he heard his voice and looked at him with a smile: "Erhu, what do you want to eat? Dad will buy it for you tomorrow!"

"You can eat anything, I'm not picky!" Xu Erhu pulled an awkward smile on his face.

Xu Damao didn't talk about this topic anymore, but went to the kitchen with Sun Xiaoyan.

"Why did you come in? Can't you just wait for the food?" Sun Xiaoyan was a little surprised. After Xu Damao married her, he never entered the kitchen and always used the excuse that being a cook was embarrassing.

"I just don't know what to say to the child. I just said a few words to him and I broke out in a sweat on my back!" Xu Damao looked at a loss.

"You just have kidney deficiency, what does it have to do with the child?"

"Go away, stop bringing up that matter!"

Sun Xiaoyan started looking for a matchmaker the next day, and Xu Damao was also busy. He went to some friends in the construction team to ask where there were houses for sale.

In the courtyard, Liu Qingshan took his family out for a stroll in the morning. He didn't ride a bike, but took the young couple directly to Qianmen Street.

Xiao Jiang is from Jiangsu Province. He has never been to Beijing, so he finds everything strange.

Siqi saw a soy milk stall in front of him and said to his wife in a wicked way, "Wife, this soy milk is a specialty of our Kyoto. It's not available anywhere else. Do you want to try it?"

Jiang Xueqin had just shown a hint of curiosity when she was stopped by Feng Yu.

"Don't listen to his nonsense. A lot of people in our old city can't get used to drinking that soy milk! So don't go and make trouble for yourself." Feng Yu said while glaring at Liu Siqi.

"People who like douzhi really like it, but people who can't get used to it think it tastes even worse than swill, and they will vomit after drinking a sip." Liu Qingshan explained with a smile.

Jiang Xueqin thanked Feng Yu and Liu Qingshan with some gratitude, then turned around and glared at Liu Siqi again.

"Let's go to the mall and buy some things. You will go back to Jiangsu Province later, so bring some things to send to your in-laws." Liu Qingshan looked at the store in front of him and called a few people to go in together.

"Several people picked up some local specialties and packed them up. Liu Qingshan went to the counter and asked for some high-end cigarettes and tea."

"Mom and Dad, these are too many. It's not convenient for Siqi and I to take care of them!" Jiang Xueqin advised quickly.

"It's okay. Your Aunt Lou specially prepared two suitcases for you. They are very convenient to carry!" Feng Yu smiled and held her arm.

Liu Qingshan didn't buy any wine, but planned to go back and get a few bottles from his collection.
