Siheyuan: I am Jia Dongxu's cousin

"Dad, how can you be like this? You even want money to prepare a wedding house for your son!" Yan Jiecheng said with some dissatisfaction.

He doesn't even have a formal job now. He relies on going to grain stations and other places every day to carry grain and work as a temporary worker to earn money.

The monthly salary is only 16 or 17 yuan. I have to pay half of the food expenses to my family. If I pay back this 400 yuan, I will not have any money left.

"Jiecheng, you can't say that. Did I pay the 10 yuan betrothal gift to Yu Li's family?" asked the third uncle.

"Yes."

"When Yu Li came to our house for dinner, did I give her the chocolate that Zhang Weiguo had given her?"

"Yes"

"Right, Dad doesn't have to ask you to pay back the money. But think about it, you still have two younger brothers and a younger sister. What will they do if you give all the money to get married?"

In fact, the third uncle Yan Bugui didn't want to calculate on this matter, but there was nothing he could do.

There are seven people in the Yan family. Before Yan Jiecheng started working, the whole family relied on his salary of 27.5 yuan to support them.

He was able to save the 400 yuan entirely by living frugally.

evening.

"Honey, let's go set off firecrackers." Lou Xiao'e said to Zhang Weiguo, whose face was covered in flour.

"Okay, let's put the dumplings in when they're cooked."

"Ah."

Soon, Lou Xiao'e couldn't wait any longer. She came to the kitchen door and urged coquettishly, "Honey, are the dumplings not ready yet? I really want to set off firecrackers!"

Zhang Weiguo turned around, looked at her expectant eyes, and said with a smile, "It will be ready soon, it will be ready soon, don't worry."

A few minutes later, Zhang Weiguo walked out of the kitchen with steaming dumplings and brought Lou Xiao'e to the yard.

"Hubby, let me come, let me come."

Lou Xiao'e couldn't wait to snatch the match from Zhang Weiguo's hand and light it.

"Why are you coming? You're still pregnant." Zhang Weiguo quickly stopped Lou Xiao'e, fearing that something might happen to her.

"Hmph (￢︿??￢☆)"

Lou Xiao'e pouted in disappointment, but seeing Zhang Weiguo's concerned look, she had to give up.

As Zhang Weiguo lit the firecrackers, a crackling sound rang out in the courtyard.

Zhang Weiguo and Lou Xiao'e stood aside and admired the gorgeous fireworks.

"Honey, can you please let it go again?" Lou Xiao'e looked at Zhang Weiguo with her pitiful little eyes again.

What can he say? Zhang Weiguo lit another string of firecrackers.

As the last string of firecrackers fell, night gradually fell. Zhang Weiguo took Lou Xiao'e's hand and walked into the house.

At the dinner table, the two sat together. Zhang Weiguo picked up a dumpling, blew away the heat gently, and then put it to Lou Xiao'e's mouth.

"Honey, the dumplings you make are so delicious."

"It's delicious, just eat more."

After dinner, the two sat on the sofa, and Lou Xiao'e asked, "Honey, what do you think we should name our son when he is born?"

Zhang Weiguo thought for a moment and said, "If it's a boy, he'll be called Zhang Rongyao, and if it's a girl, she'll be called Zhang Jinxuan."

"Honey, why do I feel like you're a little excited when you mention the word 'glory'? Do you like boys too?"

Zhang Weiguo thought, what's the point of liking boys? It was just a reminder of a game of **Glory in the previous life.

Zhang Weiguo quickly deleted the thought in his mind and said, "As long as you give birth to a child, I like them all."

-

As the bell struck 12 o'clock on New Year's Eve, the entire city was instantly lit up, and bursts of firecrackers sounded like cheerful music in the night sky.

At this moment, a voice sounded in Zhang Weiguo's mind.

[Ding, (￣▽￣*), the new year has arrived, would you like to sign in, host? 】

Zhang Weiguo silently said in his mind, "Sign in."

[Congratulations to the host for obtaining the "Offspring Gene Optimization Potion"]

【Please ask the host whether to extract. 】

At this time, Zhang Weiguo was checking the introduction of the "Offspring Gene Optimization Drug" and had no time to deal with the system.

[Offspring Gene Optimization Drug: A gene drug developed by scientists in the 23rd century specifically for newborns. It can make newborns immune to all diseases before the 23rd century (including the 23rd century), and can greatly improve the IQ of newborns. ]

Zhang Weiguo looked at the introduction of "Offspring Gene Optimization Drug" in the system and exclaimed in his heart, "This system is awesome."

Zhang Weiguo even thought that if he gave birth to a son, he might as well drink the potion.

At this time, Lou Xiao'e, who was dazed, opened her eyes and said, "Husband, why aren't you asleep yet?"

Zhang Weiguo kissed Lou Xiao'e on the face and said, "Go to sleep, let's go to sleep now."

On the first day of the Lunar New Year, Zhang Weiguo drove his car and took Lou Xiao'e back to the village.

"Dad, Mom, we're back." Zhang Weiguo parked the car at the door and shouted as he walked towards home.

"Big brother is back, big brother is back."

When the little sister Zhang Lili heard the sound, she ran to the door excitedly.

"Happy New Year, Lili."

Lou Xiao'e saw Zhang Lili running out and handed her a red envelope.

"Brother, what about yours?" Zhang Lili said with a smile.

"Give."

Zhang Weiguo took out a red envelope from his pocket and handed it to her.

Then he said, "Lili, go call Huguo and Meimei out and move the things at the door into the house."

"Go ahead, Lili. Your brother has bought a lot of good things for you." Lou Xiao'e said with a smile, touching Zhang Lili's head.

After Zhang Weiguo and Lou Xiao'e entered the house, they first greeted the two elders.

Then the two elders handed the red envelopes they had already prepared to the two people.

At this time, Zhang Lili, who was standing at the door, looked at the car at the door and asked in confusion: "Where are the things that big brother bought? And who parked the car in front of our house?"

"This car is so beautiful." Zhang Huguo didn't think too much about it. Instead, he stared at the car left and right.

The introverted Zhang Meimei said, "It won't be taken away by someone. Let's go find Big Brother and ask him."

After a while, the three of them ran back into the house and said, "Brother, it seems that the things you bought were taken away."

“What’s happening?”

Zhang Weiguo was a little confused. The most powerful man in their village, the Boss of the Guo family, was probably already covered in grass by now. Who would take the things he bought?

Asked: "Lili, did you check in the car? Is there nothing inside?"

"In the car?" the three said in unison.

Zhang Huguo then asked, "Brother, are you saying that you drove the car outside back?"

"Yeah, you didn't go and see it."

Zhang Weiguo slapped his head at this moment. He had forgotten how rare cars were in that era.

"Brother, can you take me upstairs to sit for a while?" Zhang Huguo stared at Zhang Weiguo expectantly with his big eyes.

"Why not? I'll take you for a ride later."

"Brother, I want one too." Zhang Lili also said at this time.

"Okay, everyone goes."

After a while, Zhang Weiguo took the three kids to bring the things in the car back to the house.

By the time Zhang Weiguo and Zhang Huguo finished visiting the village elders, it was already noon.

When they got home, Zhang's father, Zhang Weiguo and Zhang Huguo were drinking at the table, while Zhang's mother, Lou Xiao'e, Zhang Meimei and Zhang Lili were talking about the baby in Lou Xiao'e's belly.

At this time, Zhang's father, who had drunk a little too much, said:

"Weiguo, I thought of a name for my eldest grandson. It's called... Zhang Yuge. What do you think?"

"what?"

When Zhang Weiguo heard the name, two voices appeared in his mind unconsciously: "hi - Squidward -" and "Oh, SpongeBob SquarePants..."

Zhang Weiguo asked helplessly: "Dad, who came up with this name for you?"

"This is the name my father asked Blind Wang from our village to calculate. It has a good meaning, and I think the name 'Zhang Yuge' sounds nice."

"Weiguo, what do you think?"
