Siheyuan: I am the Smart Pillar

Li Huaide forced an awkward smile and said, "Brother, look at what you said. What happened today is indeed my fault. There are really too many things going on in the steel mill. I have just arrived here not long ago. If I really leave early, my colleagues in the steel mill will be confused."

Liu Shiqiang nodded and said, "It's okay, I understand. Dad asked you to go in. There are several important leaders inside. Please talk nicely when you go in later." Li Huaide nodded and said, "Don't worry." Liu Shiqiang glared at Liu Cuihua and said, "You guys can just play here. Cuihua, you can't be willful."

Liu Cuihua pouted and nodded, saying, "Okay, I won't make trouble, okay?" Liu Shiqiang took Li Huaide into the house. After the two of them entered the house, a mean woman next to Liu Cuihua said, "Cuihua, you are really capable. You dared to beat your man in front of us. I really admire you. Your man didn't get angry. Cuihua, you are an idol among us."

Liu Cuihua smiled and said, "Huh, what I, Liu Cuihua, said is right, isn't it? I'm not like you who are controlled by your husbands every day. I, Liu Cuihua, have the final say at home. I am the sky in my family." Liu Cuihua's friends around her looked at him enviously. Most of them were married women.

Their families are generally very well-off, but they are unwilling to treat their men like Liu Cuihua. But a man like Li Huaide, I am afraid no one in Liu Cuihua's family would look down on him. They envy Liu Cuihua a little. What's wrong with being a coward? What's wrong with being poor? But Li Huaide is handsome. They admit in their hearts that apart from other factors, Li Huaide's physical conditions can be said to be the best.

This made some women who were prettier than Liu Cuihua feel unbalanced. They also wanted to be the queen of men? Liu Cuihua was not prettier than herself, but why could she find such a man? Wasn't he just a live-in son-in-law? Live-in sons-in-law were much better than those they married out. Live-in sons-in-law had no status at all in this era. Women had the final say in the family.

Liu Cuihua said, "Sisters, come to our house today. Come to my bedroom. I have set up a table there. We can eat and chat." Everyone nodded with a smile, and they were naturally very happy. A group of women went to the second floor, closed the room and ate and drank inside.

In the living room, the two brothers-in-law and the father-in-law were sitting at the table eating and drinking, while Li Huaide was standing aside and pouring wine. Many people at the table had no good feelings towards Li Huaide, the son-in-law. Which man would give up his dignity and become a son-in-law in someone else's home?

Li Huaide's father-in-law is called Liu Daqiang. Liu Daqiang has worked hard in the army for most of his life and has achieved his current status. Today, he is hosting a banquet for his best friends and former subordinates. The former subordinates highly respect their former leaders. If the former leaders want to invite them, they will naturally come to the banquet.

Liu Daqiang tasted the dish, put his chopsticks on the table and said, "Damn it, who cooked this? The Mapo tofu is not spicy enough, and the braised pork is so sweet. Are you trying to kill me?" Liu Shiqiang smiled awkwardly and said, "Dad, please calm down. The chef who cooked for you has gone back to his hometown recently. My second brother and I went out to buy this, so we'll just have to make do with it."

Liu Daqiang snorted coldly and said, "What did you say? You asked your father to put up with you. I, Liu Daqiang, have fought in wars all my life, and I just want to eat something good. You bastard, you asked me to put up with you." Liu Daqiang was born in a military family, and he had a very bad temper. As the years passed, white hair appeared on his head. His personality has changed a lot, but his temper has never changed.

On the other side, after visiting Director Wang, Director Wang and his wife bought some food and went back to the courtyard. As soon as they arrived at the courtyard, the neighbors asked questions. He Yuzhu waved his hand, signaling everyone to be quiet and said, "Ladies and uncles, tomorrow it will be my chef who will cook. Don't ask any more questions, just wait for the feast tomorrow."

Yang Ruihua said with a big belly and a smile, "Zhu Zi, you are so lucky. Is Master Mo an ordinary person? He is a person that ordinary people cannot invite. Let us, Zhu Zi, invite him, so we old guys can have a good meal. What about the people in our courtyard tomorrow? We are so blessed."

He Yuzhu smiled and said, "This is just my master's consideration for me as an apprentice. Everyone should come early tomorrow." The neighbors were naturally very happy, and they all patted their chests and promised that they would arrive early tomorrow. Back in the house, the couple sat on the stool to rest and discuss the details of tomorrow's wedding. Although the couple walked a lot today, they still did not feel tired at all.

At this time, there was a knock on the door. Qin Huairu ran over and opened the door, and found Bai Xiuying outside. Qin Huairu tidied up the hair on her forehead and asked, "It turned out to be an old lady. What can I do for you?" Qin Huairu invited the old lady in. After all, it was not good to block someone outside the door.

Bai Xiuying smiled and asked, "It's like this, Huairu Zhuzi, I came here this time to ask, do you two have anything that I and your uncle can help you with?" The couple thought about it, shook their heads and said, "We two don't need any help right now. After all, there are many things that we can solve easily."

Bai Xiuying's face was a little gloomy. After thinking for a while, she asked again, "Zhu Zi, who will play the role of your parents tomorrow?" In traditional customs, newlyweds have to pay respect to their parents. He Daqing is now in Baocheng, and He Yuzhu's mother has been dead for many years.

Qin Huairu thought for a while and said, "We have already discussed this matter. Zhuzi's master and his wife will take on the role." Bai Xiuying sighed in his heart. He felt very uncomfortable. He had watched He Yuzhu grow up since he was a child. Seeing He Yuzhu getting married, he was very happy in his heart.

Last night, her husband asked her to ask who would be the parents of He Yuzhu and his wife. Bai Xiuying was looking forward to it. She knew that He Yuzhu had respected her husband very much in the past, and she really hoped that He Yuzhu would let her husband and her husband be his parents. When Bai Xiuying got this answer, she felt a pain in her heart.
