Siheyuan Back to the 1950s

On the second day after the successful proposal, Lin Wencui gave Sun Zhengan the 1000 yuan and tickets that she had promised in advance in front of the whole family.

Sun Zhengan was so happy that he couldn't stop smiling. He had been looking forward to this huge sum of money for a long time.

"Mom, now that I have this money, can I spend it however I want?"

After getting the money, Sun Zhengan still asked with concern.

"I'll give you the money and I won't ask any more questions. This is what we agreed upon. You can do whatever you want."

Sun Zhengan's mouth was crooked with smile when he got his mother's affirmation.

"Second brother, with this money, should we buy the three turns and one ring first?"

Sun Zhenghong was also jealous and encouraged them from the side.

"Little sister! I have already discussed this money with your sister-in-law. I have a car and a watch now, so I can buy your sister-in-law another watch. That's it."

Sun Zhenghong was completely stunned. His second brother had a huge sum of money, and he only spent 100 yuan and saved the rest for himself. It was really a good plan.

However, this also gave her a new idea. When she gets married in the future, can she convert her dowry into money?

Seeing her second son's arrangement, Lin Wencui did not ask for anything. After all, the family had enough of these big items. If she really wanted to use a sewing machine, she could just go to her eldest son or find her nephew.

As the saying goes, if you have enough money, you won't be worried. Sun Zhengan got the money and in the next few days, he accompanied Yu Li to buy a watch, a few wedding clothes, and some daily necessities. Finally, the two of them got their marriage certificate.

As the days passed, on the day before the wedding, relatives from my hometown came and temporarily stayed in Juer Hutong.

It is worth mentioning that my aunt Sun Xiaoying gave birth to a big fat boy three months ago. She brought him here this time and he became everyone’s favorite.

Early the next morning, the family gathered in the courtyard and chatted happily.

When the grandmother saw her two pregnant granddaughters-in-law, and thought about having another granddaughter-in-law today, she walked with the wind, holding her youngest grandson in her arms.

"Mom and Dad, everyone stop chatting and come over to eat!"

Hearing Lin Wencui's shout, everyone didn't say anything polite. After all, there was still a lot to do after dinner!

After breakfast, everyone started to prepare for the bride-picking ceremony. Four bicycles were prepared for the ceremony. Sun Zhengan took his cousins ​​and several other brothers to pick up the bride.

When the auspicious time arrived, several people pushed the cart and rushed to Yu's house.

“Jungguk, everything is arranged.”

After Sun Zhengan left, Lin Wencui confirmed again.

"Don't worry! Mom, we still follow the old rules. We will do things here and go to the small courtyard to eat. Uncle He brought Yu Shui to the small courtyard early in the morning. Uncle is there to greet us. We just need to take care of things here."

Seeing that her eldest son had arranged everything in an orderly manner, Lin Wencui nodded with satisfaction.

An hour later, the clairvoyant Sun Zhenghong ran in breathlessly. Without saying a word, everyone went out of the house.

"Mom, the bride-picking team is back."

"understood."

"Hahaha……!"

Seeing that everyone was laughing, Sun Zhenghong was a little confused. Did I say something wrong?

At the gate of the courtyard, all the aunties, young wives, and even the aunties from the neighboring courtyards have already occupied the advantageous positions, waiting for the arrival of the bride.

A group of people from the Sun family also came to the door. When they saw Sun Zhengan, Sun Zhengguo immediately gave orders.

"Cousin, Zhengdong, let's set off the firecrackers!"

"okay!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Lin Jiguo and Sun Zhengdong, holding a lit cigarette in their hands, immediately ran over and started setting off firecrackers.

“Pah pah pah… Boom, boom, boom…!”

As the sound of firecrackers rang out, Sun Zhengan and his group arrived at the door.

The aunties at the door immediately became agitated, "The bride is here!" A group of people immediately surrounded her, ready to ask the bride for wedding candy.

The person who came to the wedding today was Yu Haitang, who immediately started distributing candies. Aunt Chen was also there to help, and Sun Zhengan was protecting his wife.

After going through numerous difficulties, the newlyweds finally made it through the door. The neighbors received wedding candies and were also smiling.

After the newlyweds entered the house, they went through another tedious procedure: they stepped over the fire basin, burned incense and offered sacrifices to their ancestors, and then they entered the bridal chamber.

After everything was settled, everyone stayed in the courtyard for another hour before rushing to Juer Hutong together.

Seeing the Sun family evacuate collectively, the people in the compound also knew what was going on. They most likely went to Sun Zhengguo's house for dinner.

Who in the compound doesn’t want to go?

But they were just showing their respect to their own people and didn't invite anyone else. In the courtyard, except Aunt Chen and He Daqing and his daughter, everyone was cursing in their hearts.

At this time, in the small courtyard of Juer Hutong, He Daqing and his daughter's work was almost finished and they were waiting for guests.

The fragrance wafted around the courtyard, causing the surrounding children to jump around in panic.

When the Sun family arrived, He Daqing handed the work in his hands to his daughter, and then walked towards Sun Zhengguo.

"Jungguk, the food is almost ready. When will the feast begin?"

"Uncle He, everyone is here, let's start the feast now!"

"Okay! I'll be right there."

Since they were all family, they started to take their seats when they heard the meal start.

Sun Zhengguo also came to his room, ready to call his wife to eat. Since there were many people today, he did not let Ning Xiaowei join in the fun.

In the room, Ning Xiaowei was chatting happily with her mother and sister-in-law when she suddenly saw Sun Zhengguo walk in.

"Hey! Jungkook, you're here."

"Yeah! Mom, stop chatting, the party has already started outside."

"Okay, let's go. Don't keep everyone waiting."

With all the people in place, Sun Zhengan and his wife spoke a few symbolic words and the banquet was officially announced to begin.

There was a wide variety of dishes at noon, and He Daqing's cooking skills were also very good.

Although everyone present had been supported by Sun Zhengguo to some extent, and they were not too short of food, they all lacked oil and water, so everyone was eating happily.

After three rounds of wine and five dishes, Sun Zhengan brought his wife to toast again. Upon hearing that the new daughter-in-law changed her mind, the elders happily gave their blessings and a red envelope.

When the banquet was over, the leftovers were divided equally between Aunt Chen and He Daqing.

After packing up, He Daqing was the first to say goodbye. Sun Zhengguo winked at his brother, and Sun Zhengan understood immediately.

"Uncle He, you've worked hard today. This is a small gift from me. Please accept it."

After Sun Zhengan finished speaking, he took out two packs of cigarettes, a red envelope, and a handful of candy and handed them over.

Seeing the candy, He Yushui took it and said, "Thank you, Brother Zhengan."

He Daqing hesitated for a moment, but due to financial difficulties, he accepted the thank-you gift.

"Thank you. My family is all dependent on you, Brother Zhuzi, so I will accept it."

"Of course, of course, you're welcome, Mr. He."

After some polite exchanges, He Daqing and his daughter left.
