Siheyuan: Selling antiques? Only making 28,000 RMB from 30,000 RMB

Zhou Dong smiled and nodded, but did not invite the neighbors to come in to eat. He knew that although he bought a lot of pork, there were so many people in his family that it would not be enough for everyone to share.

After a while, the braised pork was ready and Zhou Dong served it on the table. When grandparents smelled the fragrance, their eyes were full of satisfaction. Zhou Dong served a few bowls of rice and sat down to eat with his grandparents.

Just as they were enjoying their meal, there was a knock on the door. Zhou Dong put down his chopsticks, walked over to open the door, and saw Jia Dongxu standing at the door with a somewhat unhappy look on his face.

"Zhou Dong, what delicious food are you making? It smells so good?" Jia Dongxu asked with a frown.

Zhou Dong smiled slightly: "Jia Dongxu, I made some braised pork today."

Jia Dongxu nodded, but his expression did not ease: "Zhou Dong, we are all neighbors, we should share any delicious food."

Zhou Dong was stunned for a moment, feeling a little embarrassed: "Jia Dongxu, I bought this meat specially for my grandparents to eat. It won't be enough if we divide it."

Jia Dongxu snorted: "Zhou Dong, in our yard, if anyone has good things, don't we all share them together? You are not very kind."

Zhou Dong was about to explain when Qin Huairu and Liu Haizhong came over. Qin Huairu's eyes flashed with dissatisfaction: "Zhou Dong, we are all neighbors. It's not good not to share good things."

Liu Haizhong also nodded: "Yes, Zhou Dong, everyone helps you so much all the time, you should show some appreciation."

Zhou Dong felt helpless. He knew his neighbors had a point, but there was not enough pork to share with everyone. He looked at his grandparents and felt embarrassed.

At this time, grandma stood up and said with a smile: "Don't worry, Zhou Dong also means well. This piece of pork is indeed not much, we can make a big pot of food and everyone can eat together, how about it?"

Grandpa also nodded: "Yes, everyone, don't embarrass Zhou Dong, let's add some other dishes and have a lively meal together."

The neighbors' faces softened after hearing this, and they all nodded in agreement. Zhou Dong looked at his grandparents, his heart full of gratitude. He quickly put the remaining braised pork into the pot, added other dishes, and cooked a big pot.

After a while, the delicious big pot of food came out of the pot, and everyone sat around in the yard and ate this sumptuous dinner together. Although there were not many dishes, everyone was very satisfied.

"Zhou Dong, thank you so much. Today's meal was really delicious." Liu Haizhong said gratefully.

Yan Bugui nodded: "Zhou Dong's grandparents are really good people. We are all grateful to you."

Zhou Dong smiled and felt warm in his heart. He knew that although life was not always satisfactory, with the support and help of these neighbors, everything would be fine.

After dinner, everyone cleaned up the yard together, and Zhou Dong and his grandparents returned to the house. Grandpa looked at Zhou Dong with a look of satisfaction on his face: "Zhou Dong, you did a great job today, and everyone is very happy."

Grandma also nodded: "Yes, Zhou Dong, the neighbors are very grateful to you."

Zhou Dong smiled slightly: "Grandpa and grandma, thanks to you, everyone is so happy today."

Zhou Dong still worked hard every day, leaving home early and returning late. The neighbors in the courtyard also became more and more accepting of Zhou Dong's grandparents, and everyone got along better.

One day, Zhou Dong saw some fresh fish in the market, and he bought a few to take home. When he returned to the courtyard, he happened to meet Qin Huairu and Liu Haizhong. When they saw the fish in Zhou Dong's hand, a trace of envy flashed in their eyes.

"Zhou Dong, there are good things again today." Qin Huairu said with a smile.

"Well, I saw these fish were fresh today, so I bought a few."

He smiled and said, "Zhou Dong, you are so filial. Grandpa and grandma are so happy to have you at home."

He went straight back to the house. He put the fish on the kitchen table and started to prepare dinner. When grandpa and grandma saw the fish Zhou Dong brought back, a trace of joy flashed in their eyes again.

"Zhou Dong, such a big fish, did it cost a lot of money?"

Zhou Dong and Qin Huairu's marriage caused quite a stir in the courtyard. The relationship between the two actually started a few months ago, but it was never made public. Zhou Dong's careful care and gentleness towards Qin Huairu gradually touched her heart, and Zhou Dong's grandparents were also very satisfied with Qin Huairu, thinking that she was a virtuous and kind daughter-in-law.

On this day, Zhou Dong decided to formally propose to Qin Huairu. He carefully prepared a dinner and invited grandparents and Qin Huairu to share it. At the end of the dinner, Zhou Dong stood up and looked at Qin Huairu affectionately.

"Qin Huairu, I know we have not known each other for long, but during this time, you have given me a lot of warmth and happiness. I want to spend the rest of my life with you, are you willing to marry me?" Although Zhou Dong's voice was a little nervous, his eyes were full of sincerity.

Qin Huairu's eyes moistened when she heard this. She also stood up, held Zhou Dong's hand, and nodded gently: "Zhou Dong, I do."

Grandpa and grandma witnessed all this and looked at them with satisfaction. Grandma wiped the tears from her eyes and said with a smile: "Zhou Dong, Qin Huairu, you must cherish each other."

The preparations for the wedding started soon. The neighbors of the Siheyuan helped to decorate the venue and prepare everything needed for the wedding. Everyone was looking forward to this happy event, because the union of Zhou Dong and Qin Huairu was not only the happiness of the two of them, but also a great happy event for the entire Siheyuan.

On the wedding day, the courtyard was decorated with new decorations. Red wedding characters were posted in every corner of the courtyard, and the table was filled with delicious food. Neighbors all put on their best clothes and came to the courtyard early to wait for the wedding to begin.

Zhou Dong and Qin Huairu walked hand in hand to the center of the venue amid the blessings of everyone. Grandpa and grandma stood beside them as witnesses.

"Today is a good day. We are here to witness the wedding of Zhou Dong and Qin Huairu. Their union is not only the happiness of two people, but also a happy event for our Siheyuan family." Grandpa's voice was deep and powerful, spreading throughout the yard.

Grandma took over the conversation and said gently: "Zhou Dong, Qin Huairu, you must support each other and go through every day of the future together. May your life be as beautiful as today."

Zhou Dong and Qin Huairu looked at each other, their hearts filled with emotion. They exchanged rings and hugged each other tightly amid the applause and cheers of their neighbors.

However, just when everyone was immersed in joy, Jia Zhang suddenly came over and watched all this with tears in her eyes. She walked in front of Zhou Dong and Qin Huairu, choking and saying: "Zhou Dong, Qin Huairu, I wish you all the best. It's just that seeing your happiness reminds me of my son Jia Dongxu."

Qin Huairu's eyes flashed with mixed emotions when she heard this. She gently patted Jia Zhang's shoulder and comforted her, "Auntie Jia, Dongxu will be happy for us in heaven."

Zhou Dong also nodded: "Yes, Aunt Jia, we will always remember Dongxu."

Jia Zhang nodded and wiped her tears: "Thank you, I am just a little sad, but more happy for you."

As the wedding continued, neighbors came forward to bless the newlyweds. Liu Haizhong took out a bottle of fine wine that he had treasured for many years and said with a smile, "Today is a happy day. Come, let's drink together and bless Zhou Dong and Qin Huairu!"

Yan Bugui also took out his own special dishes and greeted everyone enthusiastically: "Come on, everyone, don't be polite, eat more, today is our courtyard's happy event!"

Qin Huairu had a happy smile on her face, busy greeting every guest. Zhou Dong looked at her from time to time, his eyes full of tenderness. He knew that today was not only a happy moment for the two of them, but also a festive day for the entire courtyard.

The wedding lasted until the night, the courtyard was brightly lit, and there was constant laughter. Neighbors drank wine, ate delicious food, and sent their blessings. Zhou Dong and Qin Huairu's wedding became a good story in the courtyard, and everyone was happy for the couple.

After the wedding, Zhou Dong and Qin Huairu returned to their new home, which was decorated warmly and romantically. Qin Huairu looked at the room and was touched: "Zhou Dong, thank you, everything is so beautiful."

Zhou Dong walked up to her and hugged her gently: "Qin Huairu, this is just the beginning, we will always be happy like this."

She whispered, "Zhou Dong, I am really happy. With you by my side, everything becomes so beautiful."

Zhou Dong kissed her forehead gently: "Qin Huairu, we will go through every day together. No matter how many difficulties we face, we will face them together."

As the night deepened, Zhou Dong and Qin Huairu hugged each other tightly, enjoying the tranquility and happiness of the moment.

In the following days, Zhou Dong continued to work in the food factory, while Qin Huairu took care of the housework and grandparents at home. The neighbors in the courtyard were full of envy and blessings for their marriage, and the relationship between everyone became closer.

One day, Zhou Dong came home from get off work and saw Qin Huairu busy in the yard with a happy smile on her face. He walked over and patted her shoulder gently: "Qin Huairu, what are you busy with today?"

Qin Huairu turned around and saw Zhou Dong, and said with a smile: "Zhou Dong, I'm tidying up the yard. I want to plant some flowers and plants to make our home more beautiful."

Zhou Dong smiled and nodded: "Okay, I'll help you."

The two worked together, and soon the yard was in perfect order. The neighbors saw this heartwarming scene and came forward to make fun of it.

"Zhou Dong, Qin Huairu, you are really enviable." Liu Haizhong said with a smile.

Qin Huairu blushed slightly: "Uncle Liu, please stop making fun of us."

Yan Bugui also came over and said with a smile: "Zhou Dong, Qin Huairu, the yard is well maintained. It makes people feel happy just looking at it."

Zhou Dong responded with a smile: "Uncle Yan, everyone can come to our house and chat when you are free."
