Siheyuan Back to the 1950s

Since the new person assigned to the department arrived, Sun Zhengguo has devoted himself to the work, constantly improving the drawings, hoping to complete the task as soon as possible.

The group of younger brothers under him are also not idle. Every time the section chief changes a drawing, the entire industrial parameters need to be recalculated.

Their task is to cooperate closely, calculate industrial parameters, and follow the section chief closely without any slackness.

In just half a month, the drawings of two common machine tools, C616 and C620, have been successfully finalized.

As for the remaining drawings of the X62W universal milling machine, they are slightly more complicated and require more time to perfect.

But as long as this drawing is completed, it means that we can enter the actual transformation stage.

It's time to get off work again today, but Sun Zhengguo is still studying the drawings, as if he has forgotten the passage of time.

"Brother, it's time to get off work!"

Hearing his brother's call from the door, Sun Zhengguo raised his head, glanced at his watch, and couldn't help but sigh.

"Time flies by so fast. I didn't even notice it and it was already time to get off work."

After saying that, Sun Zhengguo carefully packed up the drawings, put them into his canvas bag, and prepared to take them home to continue revising them.

On the way back, Sun Zhengan thought about his marriage and asked.

"Brother, Yu Li's father told us to pick a good day so we can propose marriage anytime."

"Okay! Let's go back and ask mom to take a look, but we still need a matchmaker. Who are you going to find?"

Although my younger brother is in a free love relationship, there has been a saying since ancient times that matchmakers should arrange marriages, so the necessary etiquette must be followed.

"I haven't really thought about this. Brother, who do you think is suitable?"

"I think you don't need to bother yourself. Aunt Chen from our hospital is suitable. She has a good relationship with our family and is skilled in the business. Just choose her!"

"Okay! Brother, you have the final say."

The two brothers chatted all the way home and started to eat. During this time, Sun Zhengguo talked to his mother about his younger brother.

Lin Wencui certainly supported it and said she would talk about it after dinner.

After dinner, Lin Wencui picked up the calendar and the family picked out a good day.

"Zhengguo, look, the eighth day after tomorrow is a good day for traveling. Why don't you two brothers take a leave so that you can settle the marriage earlier?"

"Okay! I think the eighth day of the first lunar month is also a good date, but I'll have to trouble you to make another trip. I'm going to ask Aunt Chen in the backyard to act as a matchmaker. What do you think?"

Lin Wencui certainly had no objection to her son's proposal and nodded in agreement immediately.

After all, good things should be kept within the family. If we talk about relationships in this courtyard, Aunt Chen's family must be the most influential.

No matter what happens to the Sun family, the Chen family in the backyard always stands on the same front with them.

The few of them then discussed the gifts for proposing marriage. Sun Zhengguo was still simple and straightforward, saying that these days people just bring whatever they need, and that going through all the red tape would be useless.

After discussing the matter, Lin Wencui ran to the backyard again to talk to Aunt Chen.

When Aunt Chen heard that she was wanted to be the matchmaker, she was so happy that she couldn't stop smiling. There was no reason for her to disagree, and she immediately said that she would take care of it.

Time passed quickly, and the day of proposing marriage arrived in a blink of an eye. The two brothers of the Sun family also took a day off today, and all the gifts were prepared, so they could set off at any time.

Today's marriage proposal gifts are also very rich, including chicken, fish, meat, flour, cigarettes, alcohol and sugar. The quantity is not particularly large, and the main purpose is to cover all aspects.

Aunt Chen who was behind also came to the Sun family. When she saw the gifts, she couldn't help but praise them, saying that the Sun family was open and honest, and they were worthy of being the best in the compound.

At 9 o'clock in the morning, after the gifts were packed, the four of them took two bicycles and rushed to Yu's house.

The Yu family lives in Xinjiekou. Although the two families are not in the same street office, the distance between them is really not far.

Ten minutes later, the four of them arrived at the courtyard where the Yu family lived.

The Yu family was well prepared today and bought meat early in the morning. A group of aunts and young wives were waiting at the door to watch the fun, including a sentry - Yu Peng.

When he saw several people from the Sun family coming, Yu Peng immediately ran into the yard, shouting.

"Here they come, Mom, Dad, and brother-in-law are here."

"Hahaha……!"

Hearing everyone's laughter, Yu's father, who was standing at the door, immediately scolded.

"What are you yelling about, kid? The marriage hasn't been finalized yet. Don't let others laugh at you."

"My sister and brother-in-law have known each other for so many years, it's only a matter of time. What's so funny? These people are so boring."

Yu Peng is only 14 years old this year and still a little childish, so he replied immediately.

Yu's father ignored his upset son. He just glared at him and called Yu's mother to come out to greet the guests.

Sun Zhengguo and others also came to the door, and were being inspected by the aunties and young wives at the door like a troop review.

Of course, these aunties first look at the person and then the gift. It would be best if neither of them is outstanding, so that they will feel more balanced.

Some people will definitely find this unbelievable, but in fact this is human nature. People in Beijing who love face will not tell you that what I want is for you to be worse than me.

The final result was definitely not satisfactory. The people and gifts from the Sun family were all of high quality. The aunts were very disappointed, but they still had to say some compliments against their will.

"Tsk tsk! The future in-laws of the Old Yu family are not bad, the family conditions are good, and the son-in-law is also good-looking."

"Aunt San, we are not blind. We still need you to tell us. Aunt Yu said that her in-laws have several section chiefs in their family. They are very powerful!"

"Tell me, everyone, who helped to introduce such a good marriage? Why didn't anyone help our daughter to find someone?"

"This is his daughter's own ability. The two of them are in a free love relationship. If you have the ability, tell your daughter to find someone herself."

"Hahaha……!"

The laughter of the aunties at the door did not affect the mood of the Sun family at all. After accepting the inspection, they entered the yard and arrived at the door of the Yu family.

As a matchmaker, Aunt Chen had already come to the Yu family to discuss the matter yesterday. With her help, both parties will greet each other warmly.

After a round of polite exchanges, the Sun family members were welcomed into the house and served tea.

After the tea was served, everyone sat down and began a friendly conversation. The Yu family was represented by Yu's father, and the Sun family was represented by Sun Zhengguo.

Of course, the conversation between the two parties was only symbolic, because Aunt Chen had already sounded out the situation before, and the Yu family did not have any special requests.

Finally, the two families agreed on a 20 yuan gift price and a dowry as a token of appreciation, and the wedding was scheduled for the th, with ten days left.

As for setting up a banquet? There is no such thing now, but the Sun family still plans to have a small-scale banquet among their own people.

On the Sun family's side, Lin Wencui was only responsible for paying 1000 yuan and some bills. As for what to buy, the couple decided on their own.

Such a generous gesture also stunned Yu's father. It was simply inhumane. His daughter really found the right person. It was worth it for his daughter to wait for so many years.

The marriage proposal went very smoothly and took less than half an hour. The rest was garbage time, so everyone started chatting and Yu's mother began cooking.

Thanks to the gifts brought by the Sun family, Yu's mother was generous at noon and prepared several delicious dishes, which polluted the air in the entire courtyard.

After lunch, the two brothers had to go to work, so they said goodbye.

Lin Wencui took Aunt Chen back to the courtyard, while the Sun Zhengguo brothers took a car together and went to the Machinery Department.
