Siheyuan: I am the Smart Pillar

Xu Damao looked at He Yuzhu with envy. He also wanted a wife now. After working in the kitchen of the steel mill all day, he felt bad. Although the food was good, working in the kitchen was also very tiring. How nice it would be if he also had a wife like Qin Huairu who would serve him at home.

As he was thinking, he was absorbed in his thoughts. He heard Jia Zhang shout, "Hey, Dongxu, you are finally back? Have you and Chunhua got the marriage certificate? Show it to everyone in the courtyard!" Then Xu Damao shifted his gaze to Liu Chunhua. Xu Damao almost spit out tears and covered his mouth with a smile.

He Yuzhu also looked at his eyes more. Liu Chunhua was really too eye-catching now. Liu Chunhua looked better without makeup. If she was dressed up, she could be posted on the door to ward off evil spirits. The originally ugly face was covered with a layer of white powder, and the thick lips were painted with red lip balm.

She also wore a flower on her head, which looked a bit out of place. Qin Huairu covered her mouth, she didn't mean to laugh, but she thought the makeup was too ugly. Several children who were watching the excitement in the middle courtyard stood there in a daze, and one little girl was so scared that she started crying.

After smiling awkwardly at the couple, the parents quickly carried the child into the house. Liu Chi looked at his daughter who was actually dressed up, nodded with a smile, and a smile appeared on his unhappy face. His daughter was beautiful no matter how he looked at her, but she was taken advantage of by a little chicken like Jia Dongxu.

Xu Damao covered his mouth and whispered to He Yuzhu, "This Jia Dongxu, this Jia Dongxu is really a talent. Marrying such a living ancestor, aren't you afraid of getting scared to death when you get up to go to the toilet in the middle of the night?" He Yuzhu pursed his lips and nodded, and said to Xu Damao and Qin Huairu, "Eighty percent, eighty percent, it's likely that Aunt Jia took a fancy to the dowry and sold Jia Dongxu like this."

Xu Damao thought what He Yuzhu said made a lot of sense, nodded and said, "If I were to marry such a thing, I would rather find a beautiful girl in the countryside." He Yuzhu looked at Xu Damao and said, "Why? You haven't even grown all your hair yet, but you're already thinking about women." Xu Damao said with some dissatisfaction, "Why, you have someone to hug you to sleep at night, but I can't sleep alone, so what's wrong with marrying a wife?"

The two of them were talking back and forth, making Qin Huairu blush with shame. Liu Chi looked at the marriage certificate with a smile and nodded with great satisfaction. Then he patted Jia Dongxu's thin shoulder and said, "I will leave my daughter to you in the future. You must not let her suffer any grievances. If you let my daughter suffer any grievances, then I, as her father-in-law, will definitely teach you a lesson."

Liu Chunhua's cousins ​​also stared at Jia Dongxu fiercely, and Jia Dongxu could only nod and bow. Liu Chi smiled and said to Yi Zhonghai beside him, "That cart is some vegetables and meat I bought. Old Yi, you are the matchmaker for the two children. Let's have a meal at my in-laws' mother's house tonight. What do you think, Old Yi?"

Yan Fugui came over and said, "I can also keep you company. Hello, Brother Liu. I am the third uncle in the courtyard and a primary school teacher at Red Star Primary School." Liu Chi looked at Yan Fugui, nodded with great satisfaction and said, "A teacher at Red Star Primary School, he is a cultured person. Let's have a drink tonight. I am your daughter, so you have to take care of me in your courtyard in the future."

Liu Haizhong came over with a big belly. Liu Chi knew Liu Haizhong. Although he didn't like Liu Haizhong, for the sake of his daughter, Liu Chi had to invite him. He walked up to Liu Haizhong with a smile and said, "Old Liu, I got a few bottles of good wine today. How about we get drunk tonight?"

Liu Haizhong pretended to be a leader and said, "It's not good to eat and drink here, but today is your daughter's wedding, so I, Liu Haizhong, will sacrifice my life to accompany you." Jia Zhang was very angry and said that these people could dye the food in a dyeing room. She wanted to not invite guests tonight, but she thought that today was her son's wedding day, so she kept silent and stopped making trouble.

Yi Zhonghai nodded with a smile, he was very satisfied with this marriage. Jia Dongxu's character was very weak, while Liu Chunhua was a strong and sturdy woman without any scheming. The two of them got together to provide for their old age, which could be said to be a match made in heaven. Yi Zhonghai looked at Sha Zhu unceremoniously and said, "Zhu Zi, help me cook a few dishes tonight, I want to have a drink with Master Liu."

He Yuzhu was not angry, but nodded with a smile. Seeing He Yuzhu agreed, Yi Zhonghai nodded with satisfaction. He Yuzhu's next words made him feel uncomfortable. He Yuzhu said with a smile, "Today is Brother Jia's big day, and I, as his neighbor, have to congratulate him. So, I used to charge 10 yuan for the banquet outside. Today I will charge yuan?"

Yi Zhonghai got anxious when he heard this. He shouted in a hoarse voice, "Hey, Zhuzi, are you obsessed with money? You and Dongxu are good friends who grew up together, and you have lived next door to each other for decades. Today is a good day for your brother Dongxu? You actually accepted money! You really disappoint me. Do you still respect the old tradition of helping each other in the courtyard?"

People in the yard started talking about it. Xu Damao sighed and said, "This old man is not a good person at all. He said it in a high-sounding way, but Zhuzi couldn't deal with it." Qin Huairu was also very angry. Isn't this bullying my man? Just when I wanted to take a step forward, what should I say?

Shazhu smiled and said, "Uncle, what you said is inappropriate. Each profession has its own rules and regulations. You are not a chef, so you don't know that. Even if they are familiar friends, a chef has to pay when cooking for others. If I don't accept Brother Jia's money, then if other people in the yard ask me to cook for them, should I accept it or not? My master just allowed me to take over the banquet a few days ago, and I can't break the rules of my profession as a chef."

Yi Zhonghai's old face was red, he clenched his fist and wanted to say something. He Yuzhu smiled and said, "I believe that if an old man works in the factory for free without pay, I believe he would not be willing to do so! Don't you think so?"
