Siheyuan Great Craftsmen

Back in his room, Zhou Tian continued reading for a while until he felt his eyes starting to feel sore. He folded the book over the parts he was reading, then put the book down and lay down.

Since tomorrow is Sunday, which is also his day off for the week, Zhou Tian did not plan to get up early, so he naturally slept until he woke up naturally.

When he woke up, he found that it was already bright outside. Perhaps it was because many people who worked in the steel mill were resting in the yard today, so the yard was very quiet.

Even some women and children who got up early were chatting in low voices, and the children were driven out to play outside the courtyard.

Zhou Tian got up, went upstairs to check on Sanxiao who was still sleeping, then turned around and went out, went to the breakfast shop outside the courtyard, bought three bowls of soy milk and fifteen fried dough sticks with his lunch box, and returned home amid the envious gazes of his neighbors.

As for why he didn't buy four bowls, it was because he really couldn't enjoy the sour taste of Sijiucheng bean juice. It tasted like drinking swill, which he couldn't accept as he was from Jin Province in his previous life.

After returning home, Zhou Tian put soy milk and fried dough sticks on the table, then went up to wake up his younger brothers and sisters. He originally planned to let the three little ones sleep a little longer, but fried dough sticks and soy milk would not wait for anyone.

After waking up my younger brothers and sisters and waiting for them to wash up, the family sat at the table and started eating.

"Second brother, you and third brother and little sister, do your homework after dinner. I have to go out in the morning! Don't run around, understand?"

While eating the fried dough sticks, Zhou Tian looked at his second brother Zhou Hao and said.

"I know, brother!"

The second brother Zhou Hao nodded, took a sip of soy milk and replied.

The third brother was biting on the fried dough sticks and drinking bean juice, and he didn't seem to hear what the eldest brother said. Instead, the youngest sister Zhou Ting raised her head and asked, "Brother, are you going out? Can you take me with you?"

Seeing the eager look in his little sister's eyes, Zhou Tian shook his head and said, "Brother has something important to do, so I won't take you with me. After your summer vacation, I will take you back to my hometown to play, okay?"

Zhou Tian has always been very loving to his little sister. After all, she is the only girl in the family, and he himself does not have any idea of ​​favoring boys over girls.

Besides, didn’t people in the previous life always say that a daughter is a father’s little cotton-padded jacket? He had always raised his little sister as a daughter.

Hearing that her elder brother did not agree, the younger sister Zhou Tian's face immediately showed a trace of disappointment, but she did not cry or make a fuss, because the little girl was also very sensible. She knew that her elder brother must have a reason for not taking her with him.

I could only lower my head and continue eating the fried dough stick in my hand.

After dinner, Zhou Tian once again worriedly warned his second brother, went back to his room to get four million, then left the house and walked out of the courtyard.

As soon as I walked to the front yard, I saw a woman in her fifties wearing a flowered cotton jacket walking in from the gate with a pretty girl about seventeen or eighteen years old.

"Sixth Aunt, what are you doing?"

When Zhou Tian saw the two people, he couldn't help but stop, glanced at the girl behind the woman and asked, but then a hint of relief flashed in his eyes.

He had heard that Jia Dongxu was on a blind date a long time ago, and now when he saw the girl behind the woman, he understood.

When the woman saw Zhou Tian, ​​she immediately smiled warmly.

"It turns out to be the boy from the Zhou family. What? Are you going out?"

"Yes! Sixth Aunt, is the person behind you Jia Dongxu's blind date?"

Zhou Tian glanced at the woman behind Aunt Liu and asked,

The woman was none other than Aunt Six, a famous matchmaker in the nearby street. As for her real name, no one knew it. All they knew was that if anyone in the nearby street wanted to get married, they could go to her.

Now, as the street office has not been established yet, matchmakers are considered a rare talent. That is also why most people dare not offend them.

Otherwise, if something goes wrong and Aunt Six doesn't introduce them to a partner, that would be the end of these people's lives, or even worse.

"Yes! Just yesterday, your aunt Jia found me and asked me to introduce a blind date to her Dongxu. It just so happens that I have a few people of the right age. So, I found one and brought him to her today!"

As Sixth Aunt was talking, her eyes suddenly turned and she asked, "Zhou's boy, if Sixth Aunt is not mistaken, you seem to be old enough to go on a blind date. How about I introduce one to you? What do you think?"

Aunt Six has long had her eyes on the Zhou family. Ever since Zhou Tian was promoted to an intermediate master, she has had the urge to introduce him to a blind date.

Unfortunately, in 1950, the country promulgated the latest marriage law, which stipulated that the marriage age for men must be 20 years old. Zhou Tian was only years old at the time, so it was not easy for her to bring it up and she had to give up.

But after meeting Zhou Tian today, she decided to try to tell him. After all, Zhou Tian was considered a rare and high-quality young man in the neighborhood. Not only was he promoted to master chef this year, but his home was also renovated. It was said that it was even more comfortable than the imperial palace. How could she resist?

"Sixth Aunt, are you kidding me? How old am I? Okay, Sixth Aunt won't talk to you anymore. You should go to the Jia family as soon as possible. I guess the Jia family's aunt is already waiting impatiently!"

When Zhou Tian heard this, his face turned slightly red and he hurried outside.

Even when Aunt Liu called him from behind, he didn't turn around.

"Sixth Aunt, who is this young man?"

Sixth Aunt called Zhou Tian for a while, and seeing that Zhou Tian did not turn back, she was about to continue walking towards the Jia family with the girl behind her, when she heard the girl suddenly ask.

"Xiaojuan, what's the matter? Are you interested?"

Aunt Six asked, looking at the girl behind her with a teasing look on her face.

"no!"

The girl's pretty face suddenly turned red, and she said something inconsistent. But it was no wonder that the girl asked. Although Zhou Tian had just turned eighteen, he looked much more mature than his peers because he had taken on the responsibility of the family so early.

The most important thing is that although Zhou Tian's appearance can be said to be handsome, he is only above average, with sharp eyebrows and bright eyes, especially with the scholarly air about him, he is not much worse than the stars in the movies.

"Okay, Xiaojuan, don't think about him anymore. He is now a master chef in the steel mill, and his monthly salary is nearly 800,000 yuan. We have to face reality!"

Listening to Aunt Six's words, the girl couldn't help showing disappointment on her face. She hummed softly and stopped thinking about it. Instead, she became even more silent.

"Let's go, I think your aunt Jia is getting impatient!"

Having said that, he led the way and walked all the way towards the Jia family.

However, Zhou Tian didn't slow down until he walked out of the courtyard. He couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. In fact, he was frightened by what Aunt Liu said.

But when he recovered, he had to admit that Sixth Aunt's words did move his heart.
