Siheyuan: A blessed place to start

The auspicious day has arrived!

"Zhu Zi, stop bragging. Are you really a man? The results will be seen tonight! Hurry up and go to the backyard to pick up the bride. It will be bad if you are late!"

As the host of the wedding, Lao Zhang was busy with the arrangements in the front and back yards. Sha Zhu also changed his usual sloppy style today. After putting on a suit and tie, he looked very energetic.

"Shazhu is going to pick up the bride, Shazhu is going to pick up the bride!"

A group of kids gathered around Sha Zhu, eating candies and humming songs. To the kids, it was a good thing for anyone to get married, as long as they could have candies to eat.

But the kid king Bang Geng was so angry that he slammed the table at home.

Jia Dongxu was so angry that his face turned pale and so thin that it could have plowed the ground.

Jia Zhang sat upright with an attitude of being on high alert, her triangular eyes rolling, listening to the bursts of laughter outside, feeling so depressed!

Now I understand that if you rely on mountains, they will fall; if you rely on people, they will run away.

But it wasn't all because of Yi Zhonghai, the big tree she relied on. He didn't run away, he didn't run away at all...

"Come to greet you with joy, stand outside the door and wait for your reply, please open the door quickly, the God of Wealth and God of Joy are here!"

Lao Zhang's voice pushed the festive atmosphere to a climax, and Sha Zhu grinned with his big teeth bared.

"Zhu Zi, go knock on the door and ask the bride's family to open the door so we can pick up the bride!"

At Lao Zhang's suggestion, Sha Zhu knocked on the door with a smile.

"Huai Ru, open the door, I'm here to pick you up!"

Sha Zhu shouted at the top of his voice, his voice was loud and his heart was more open!

But Qin Huairu didn't say anything, but Xiao Weiguo's voice came from inside.

"Who is here? Tell me your name!"

Sha Zhu's heart skipped a beat and he slapped his thigh in regret.

Last night, Xiao Weiguo took the initiative to find him and asked him to prepare nutritious meals for Qin Jingru for a month. He refused on the grounds that he was busy getting married. He didn't expect that Xiao Weiguo was waiting for him here!

No wonder I didn’t see him so early in the morning. It’s too late to regret now.

"Brother-in-law, we are close friends. I'll treat you to a drink later. Please let me go today!"

If it were someone else, it would be fine, but when it comes to Xiao Weiguo, Sha Zhu is really unsure!

"Then come the red envelope. I won't open the door without it!"

My goodness, this shout scared Sha Zhu so much that he started drooling. Not only was Xiao Weiguo in there, but also Chen Dapao and those other devils.

Everyone outside the door was stunned. How could a red envelope be required for a bride?

"New era, new atmosphere, new customs. If you want to take your wife away, you must give a red envelope. If you don't, the door won't be opened. Don't even think about taking her away!"

"Yes, Silly Zhu, give me the red envelope quickly!"

"Silly Zhu, give me a red envelope!"

"Silly Zhu, give me a red envelope!"

There was a wave of excitement in the room at once, and everyone urged Sha Zhu to give a red envelope, and the atmosphere was very lively.

"If it weren't for you, this wouldn't be robbery! Xiao Weiguo, you... come on, come on, can't I give it to you?"

Sha Zhu never expected this to happen. He didn't have much change in his pocket, but Xiao Weiguo would never open the door for him unless he got some benefits. So he just went for it and was willing to bleed heavily to deal with Xiao Weiguo.

Little did they know that a piece of money would be snatched away by someone inside in an instant as it was stuffed into the crack of the door. However, there were more wolves than meat, and the door was still locked tightly, and no one could open it.

Sha Zhu stuffed a few more 20-cent, 10-cent, and 50-cent bills into the box one after another, and the room finally quieted down.

"Silly Zhu, sing another song!"

"Yes, come one, Silly Pillar, come one!"

Sha Zhu, who was wearing a big red flower, had just been slaughtered and was about to sing again, and he almost lost his temper.

He kept muttering about how damn hard it was to find a wife, and when he was about to get her, she would always cause trouble for him.

Just when everyone was immersed in the joy of their wedding, a group of people suddenly came to the gate.

"No, this courtyard is holding a wedding or funeral. Why does it sound like the atmosphere is not right?"

The visitors were a makeshift band, whom Jia Zhang had invited from the village at a high price.

But the other party was not a fool. They had agreed to hold a funeral, but as soon as they entered the alley, they saw big red envelopes and big wedding characters, and the courtyard was very lively.

It doesn't look right at all!

The leading captain asked with a look of surprise, and Jia Zhang did not hide anything at this moment.

"Captain Wang, let me tell you this, it's a coincidence that this happened today! The 20th anniversary of our old Jia's death coincides with the wedding of the old He family in the hospital. But since ancient times, the dead are the greatest, so you don't have to worry, just brag, I'll take care of anything that happens!"

This was the first time that Jia Zhang was so arrogant, and he really tried his best to cause trouble.

But Captain Wang was no fool, he stamped his feet in anger.

"You are such a fucking idiot. Why didn't you find out what happened before you came? Who would think of blowing the trumpet after a person has been dead for more than 20 years? You are clearly looking for trouble!"

A bald young man scratched his head and said helplessly, "Dad, we did agree before we came here. Someone in their family just died and they will bury him today. Because of Daoyuan, I didn't agree. She even gave me extra money to agree."

The young man also had an innocent look on his face. Things that had been agreed upon in advance changed so suddenly!

Captain Wang rolled his eyes at his own son, expressing his helplessness.

"Well, let's not make money without conscience. We won't feel at ease spending the money we make! Get out of here now!"

As he spoke, Captain Wang waved his hand and signaled for everyone to evacuate immediately.

Jia Zhang stretched out her short and thick legs and blocked the way of several people.

"You took my deposit, but you changed your mind? Is this how you do business? I'm telling you, if you don't do this for me today, I'm going to sue you! Sue you for speculation and fraud!"

Several of them came from rural areas and didn't quite understand the rules in the city, but they were so scared when they heard about the appeal.

"No, don't worry, sister. We got up early and traveled more than 20 miles to get here. It wasn't easy for us. My son doesn't know anything. Since we have received your deposit, we will return it to you. We can't do this job!"

Captain Wang looked embarrassed and expressed his apologies.

But Jia Zhang was sure that the other party knew nothing, so she started to deceive him.
