Siheyuan Back to the 1950s

Chapter 516 Engagement Success

After going out, Li Xiuxiu was afraid of being seen and felt embarrassed, so she quickly walked to a place with fewer people.

Although Shazhu didn't understand, he didn't dare to ask, so he just followed.

Soon, the two came to an empty riverbank, and Li Xiuxiu stopped.

Seeing that there was no one around, both of them blushed instantly, and finally it was Sha Zhu who broke the peace first.

"Comrade Li Xiuxiu! Let me introduce myself first. My name is He Yuzhu, I'm 28 years old, I'm a cook at the Red Star Steel Rolling Mill in Sijiucheng, and my monthly salary is 32 yuan..."

After Sha Zhu finished speaking, Li Xiuxiu also explained her own situation.

Their family is not as troubled as the He family, the only drawback is that their background is not good.

However, in this respect, the two of them are alike, and neither has the right to look down on the other.

Perhaps both of them had the same experience. After introducing each other, the awkwardness was relieved a lot and they started talking more.

Sha Zhu started telling some interesting stories about his time as a chef, and Li Xiuxiu was willing to listen.

Gradually, the two of them got along better and better, and finally they just found a clean place to sit down and chat.

"Xiu Xiu, I liked you the first time I saw you. What do you think?"

Seeing that the time was ripe, Sha Zhu did not hesitate and decisively chose to confess his feelings.

"This this…?"

Li Xiuxiu hesitated and didn't know how to answer.

I thought, are city people so direct? Shouldn't the matchmaker ask this?

However, although it is difficult to answer, she finally met a man who is not lame or blind, so she can't let go.

In order to avoid misunderstanding, she could only nod with a blushing face to show her attitude.

"Really?"

Sha Zhu didn't know whether he was really excited or just pretending, and he grabbed Li Xiuxiu's hand.

"Be gentler." Li Xiuxiu said coquettishly, feeling pain in her hand from being grabbed.

"oh oh!"

Sha Zhu quickly let go, fearing that it would cause the other party to be disgusted.

"Then let's go back?" Li Xiuxiu stood up and prepared to go back.

Sha Zhu also stood up, "Xiu Xiu, are you angry?"

"I'm not angry. Since neither of us has any objection, why are you still sitting here? You're so stupid."

Li Xiuxiu said this, turned around and walked home.

The dog Shazhu finally came to his senses and followed him happily.

"Xiu Xiu, wait for me."

While the two were still walking back, several people in Li's house were also chatting and laughing, talking about some interesting things.

Because He Daqing and Li Fugui had surprisingly similar goals, as long as their children didn't object, they wouldn't object either, so everyone was able to chat so happily.

As everyone was chatting, Li Fugui remembered some unpleasant things and started complaining.

"Hey~!"

"Tell me, my daughter is not ugly, why would those immoral matchmakers introduce some lame and blind people to my daughter?"

"Yes, I admit that my family used to be landlords, but I have never done anything immoral, let alone harmed anyone. Dajiang, you know this!..."

Hearing that Li Fugui was getting more and more excited, Sun Dajiang was afraid that he would make mistakes if he continued, so he quickly stopped him.

"Brother Li, be careful with your words, be careful with your words."

"Oh oh oh!"

Li Fugui realized that something was wrong and immediately stopped complaining, then smiled awkwardly.

Then he gave He Daqing an apologetic look and said embarrassedly.

"Brother, I'm sorry to make you laugh."

"It's okay, it's okay. What's so funny about me? It's still the same." He Daqing said self-deprecatingly.

Isn't he angry? He has been screwed over the past few years and doesn't even have a decent job.

Tell me, who can he go to for justice?

Just at this moment, Li Xiuxiu and Sha Zhu walked in from outside, one after the other.

Lin Wencui saw the expressions of the two and felt that something was going to happen. She was just about to call Li Xiuxiu into the room to ask her about it, but Sha Zhu spoke first.

"Dad, Xiuxiu has agreed to date me."

"what?"

He Daqing's eyes bulged with shock, his face full of disbelief.

He never thought that his silly son could have such ability.

"Dad, you heard it right. Xiuxiu has nodded and agreed to date me." Sha Zhu repeated it again.

This time He Daqing heard it very clearly. The zombie face that had remained unchanged for a hundred years had completely turned into wrinkles because he laughed so hard.

Li Fugui was also very happy that his daughter could finally get married, and the man was a city dweller.

So he immediately said to his daughter, "Xiu Xiu, why are you still standing there? Go kill a chicken. I want to have a couple of drinks with your future father-in-law at noon today."

Li Xiuxiu didn't expect her father to be so direct. She nodded with a blushing face and prepared to walk out.

He Daqing also reacted at this time and pushed his son with his hand.

"You rascal, you are just a cook, why are you standing here? Go and help."

"Oh oh oh! I'll go right away."

Sha Zhu scratched his head embarrassedly, then followed Li Xiuxiu out.

After the two left, He Daqing and Li Fugui both felt that this matter could not be delayed any longer. The two good friends hit it off almost immediately and started discussing their child's marriage.

Even Lin Wencui found it unbelievable. The two of them went on a blind date on the same day and then started discussing the wedding date. It was too fast!

At lunch, although there was a lack of seasoning, Sha Zhu's cooking skills still received unanimous praise.

This guy became so proud of himself that he kept making eyes at his future wife.

If the occasion wasn't wrong, He Daqing would probably let him try the size 43 rubber soles.

After dinner, they cleared the table and sat down again. Li Fugui then started talking about marriage with his daughter.

"Xiu Xiu, you guys went to cook just now, and we discussed and decided to set your wedding date. Do you have any objection?"

Li Xiuxiu knew what her father was worried about, so she did not object and just nodded.

Seeing that his future daughter-in-law had no objection, He Daqing asked his son.

"Zhu Zi, what do you think?"

"Hehehe! What ideas can I have? It's all up to you, old man."

After Shazhu finished speaking, he suddenly thought of a key question and continued to ask.

"Dad, what date did you and Uncle Li decide on so I can prepare in advance."

"Haha!" He Daqing smiled. How could he not understand his son's little trick, so he said.

"On October 10th, your father-in-law will send Xiuxiu over himself. We won't have a banquet. We can just call your master over, along with your uncle Sun and his wife, and have a great time."

After He Daqing finished speaking, the idiot Sha Zhu counted on his fingers and found that it was not a long time. He was very happy.

However, He Daqing didn't care what his son was doing. He took out two big black ten notes from his pocket, wrapped them in red paper that had been prepared long ago, and then solemnly handed them to Li Fugui.

"My dear, although you didn't ask for a betrothal gift, we still have to pay for it. I'll wait for you to come over in a couple of days, and then my family will give you another marriage proposal gift. I hope you'll accept it."

"this…?"

Li Fugui hesitated for a moment, but finally accepted the money.

Although his family is not short of this money, since his in-laws are very particular, he cannot lose face for them.

After talking about the bride price with his in-laws, He Daqing looked at his future daughter-in-law.

"Xiu Xiu, you've been wronged by marrying into our family, but I want to make one thing clear to you. The reason we don't hold a wedding banquet is not because my family is reluctant, but to keep a low profile. I hope you can understand."

"Dad, I'm not wronged. I understand all this."

OK! Li Xiuxiu called out "Dad", and He Daqing spent money again, took out a big black ten and handed it to Li Xiuxiu.

Li Xiuxiu wanted to refuse, but she couldn't find a reason, so she had to accept it.
