The days of being a buyer in Siheyuan

Time soon came to the weekend. Today, Liu Minghui stayed in the yard and did not go out. Today was Liu Guangqi's wedding day. Liu Haizhong asked him and Xu Damao to accompany him to pick up the bride.

The yard was busy early in the morning. Liu Haizhong was the second-in-command in the yard, so everyone gave him face and lent a hand when necessary.

Liu Haizhong asked He Yuzhu to be the chef today. He Yuzhu had built the stove after get off work yesterday. Now Liu Lin and several aunts are helping with the preparations. Liu Lin has been married for several days and is a cheerful person. She has a good relationship with the neighbors. He Yuzhu, in particular, is not so harsh when he speaks now that Liu Lin is looking after him.

Liu Minghui did not let Yu Li come out to help. Pangpang needed someone to stay with him, so Yu Li just stood by and watched with the child in her arms.

"Hey, you can see that Second Master really loves Liu Guangqi. He even made such a big fuss in this famine year."

Liu Minghui and Xu Damao were squatting in the corner smoking, and Xu Damao said while smacking his lips.

"That person is the treasure of Second Master. Second Master doesn't mind spending the money."

Liu Minghui responded casually on the surface, but he knew that Liu Haizhong was about to face a severe attack from the filial son. Liu Guangqi would probably run away in a few days after the marriage. Not to mention the things Liu Haizhong had bought for him, it was unknown whether Liu Guangqi would move them all away.

When you come to the backyard, you can see Liu Haizhong giving orders there with a beaming face. Yi Zhonghai and Yan Bugui are sitting there watching. Yi Zhonghai feels a little uncomfortable, because he has no family, and now he feels depressed to see Liu Haizhong showing off in front of him.

Yan Bugui was very happy. Today Liu Haizhong asked him to write a gift list. Yan Bugui was very happy because he didn't have to give any gift money. He could have a free meal and get a red envelope.

"Guangqi, it's almost time, go pick up the bride."

When it was almost nine o'clock, Liu Guangqi, Liu Minghui, Xu Damao and the others went to the bride's house. There was nothing to say along the way. They just picked up the bride and that was it.

Xu Damao didn't have a good relationship with Liu Guangqi to begin with, let alone Liu Minghui. He had no intention of paying any attention to Liu Guangqi at all, because he knew that this man was an ungrateful person.

You have to know that Liu Haizhong and his wife were so good to him and gave him whatever he wanted, but they ran away after they got married and didn't provide any support for Liu Haizhong in his old age. Liu Minghui didn't want to have close friends with such people.

"The bride has arrived."

When they returned to the courtyard, the children who had been in the alley outside started shouting.

Next, the bride came in and sang a song facing the photo of the great man, and the wedding was complete.

In Liu Minghui's opinion, the bride was a beautiful girl from a small family. She should come from a good family, which could be seen from her parents.

Liu Haizhong was so happy that Liu Guangqi could marry such an outstanding girl that he raised his glass frequently at the table, which made Yi Zhonghai next to him look very unhappy.

If he wasn't a senior official and it was not difficult for him to leave, he might have just left. It was Liu Haizhong who kept showing off his son here. These words were like sharp knives stabbing Yi Zhonghai's heart.

After the lunch banquet, Liu Minghui took Yu Li home. At noon, Liu Minghui and Xu Damao hid in the middle courtyard and did not go to the backyard to join in the fun, so they did not drink much.

"Why don't you take a rest?"

After returning home, Yu Li asked Liu Minghui.

"No, I'll take you to buy some cloth and a sewing machine later."

Liu Minghui waved his hand and took out the ticket that Li Huaide had given him a few days ago.

“Is this the sewing ticket?”

Yu Li looked at it curiously after the knot.

"It seems that Uncle Er wanted to buy a sewing machine a few days ago, but he didn't buy it because he didn't have a ticket. Isn't this rare?"

Yu Li was talking about the three-turn and one-ring ticket that Liu Haizhong prepared for Liu Guangqi. With the idea of ​​getting three-turn and one-ring for Liu Guangqi, Liu Haizhong went to the black market several times, but still failed to buy a ticket. In the end, he bought a bicycle and a radio.

Liu Minghui remembered that there was no bicycle in Liu Haizhong at the beginning of the story. It seemed that the bicycle would be directly ridden away by Liu Guangqi.

In the end, Liu Haizhong only had a radio to listen to the news every day.

"This was given to me by Deputy Director Li. He only has this one left."

Liu Minghui explained.

"Oh, then Deputy Director Li is very nice to you. You should thank him more when you have time."

When Yu Li heard that it was Li Huaide who gave it, she didn't react much. But she knew that this man was her husband's backer at the steel mill.

"Okay, let's go out later. It's hard to sleep now because it's so noisy outside."

Although they had dispersed, there was still a group of middle-aged women washing things in the central courtyard. It was quite noisy with so many people.

Yu Li had no objection to what Liu Minghui said. She changed her clothes and went out with Liu Minghui.

The sun was very strong at noon. Liu Minghui was riding on the road with Yu Li. There were few pedestrians on the road, so Liu Minghui rode very fast. It took him less than half an hour to reach Chen Xueru.

"This is it."

After Liu Minghui parked the car at the door, he took Yu Li in. Chen Xueru was already waiting in the house. Liu Minghui had told her the day before that he would bring Yu Li over today.

"Oh, this must be my sister. Come in quickly. It's very hot outside."

Now Chen Xueru was the only one in the room. When she saw Liu Minghui walking in with a woman, she immediately knew that this was Liu Minghui's legal wife.

She was prepared for this and quickly led the two of them to the inner room to sit down.

Yu Li also knew who Chen Xueru was. She had heard Liu Minghui mention her before. When she saw her today, she saw that she was indeed a great beauty. She couldn't help but put her hand on Liu Minghui's waist and twisted it.

"Sister is really beautiful, no wonder she can charm people so much."

Yu Li had no intention of getting angry and spoke with a faint smile on her face.

"Why are you being so polite? And can you please not twist one side at a time? It will hurt me too."

Liu Minghui didn't know why this woman was so good at pinching people, so after he sat down, the two of them started pinching each other.

Although he didn't feel anything given his physical condition, he couldn't just let them continue, so he interrupted their conversation.

After hearing Liu Minghui's words, Yu Li and Chen Xueru smiled at each other, as if they had reached some consensus, and they all directed their criticism at Liu Minghui.

"You asked for this."

"You are just too sentimental."

Yu Li and Chen Xueru both accused Liu Minghui, and Liu Minghui could only accept their words silently without any reason to refute.

After this episode, the atmosphere between the two of them eased a lot, and at least they recognized each other.
