Siheyuan: The Qing Dynasty is back

Chapter 70 Preparation before marriage

Liu Haizhong's family spent a lot of money to celebrate his achievement of becoming a Level 7 worker.

I took out all the bacon that had been stored at home for a long time.

On the table were scrambled eggs, bacon and Chinese cabbage, shredded potatoes, and a portion of cold shredded radish.

Plus the sausages and peanuts brought by Xu Damao.

Six dishes for four people. This is a very good treatment in this era.

Yan Bugui looked at the dishes in front of him and couldn't help but move his throat several times. His family probably didn't have such a rich meal during the Chinese New Year.

Liu Haizhong opened a bottle of wine from his home and poured it for everyone.

"Come on, I finally passed level seven today. I'm very happy. Let's have a drink together!"

Several people were also holding wine glasses and talking.

"Lao Liu, congratulations!"

"Congratulations, Lao Liu!"

"Second Uncle, I hope you can pass the eighth level next time!"

The compliments from several people made Liu Haizhong laugh happily and he drank the wine in the glass in one gulp.

Then the four of them clinked glasses, ate, drank and chatted.

Yan Bugui said, "Lao Liu, Daqing, what do you think the factory will do with Yi Zhonghai being seriously injured this time?"

Liu Haizhong was probably drunk, and shouted, "What else can we do? He can't be a fitter in his condition. If I were the leader, I would just send him home. It's a waste of national resources for him to stay in the factory!"

Xu Damao shook his head and said, "I don't think so. The factory will at most transfer him to another department. If they dare to do that, I guess the workers in the factory won't agree."

He Daqing didn't say anything, just watched them analyze it.

After they talked for a long time, He Daqing finally said, "We don't care how the factory handles it. The main thing is that Yi Zhonghai will never be able to cause any trouble in our courtyard again."

"Yi Zhonghai is a hypocrite from the beginning, and now everyone has slowly seen his true colors. In the past, he could still rely on his status as a seventh-level worker to show off in the hospital. Let's see how he can show off this time."

Xu Damao was the first to support He Daqing's words, saying, "My uncle He is right. In the past, Yi Zhonghai relied on his high rank in the factory and his status as the boss of the courtyard. He took sides and always took care of the Jia family. Now he is nothing. I wonder who will listen to him in the future!"

Liu Haizhong is now thinking that now that his work level has been raised, can he replace Uncle Yi Zhonghai in the future?

Three of the four people present were happy about Yi Zhonghai's injury.

As for Yan Bugui, I will side with whoever benefits me!

The drinking party lasted until midnight and was finally disbanded.

The next day, the factory completed the investigation into the accident.

Director Yang took the accident report and looked at it carefully.

He said to Chen Weidong, the head of the Security Department, "So, there is nothing wrong with our machinery, and it is caused by Yi Zhonghai's own health problems?"

Chen Weidong nodded and said, "Yes, Director. Our own engineers and the engineers you invited yesterday have conducted a detailed inspection of the machine tools. It can be proved that there is no problem with our machine tools and everything is normal."

"We also went to the hospital yesterday to question Yi Zhonghai. According to his own account, he suddenly felt dizzy and his body leaned forward during the assessment. This led to the accident."

Director Yang nodded and said, "Okay, thank you for your hard work. We need to hold a meeting to discuss this matter. You should go and have a rest."

After Chen Weidong left, Director Yang thought about it and called a few deputy directors and the secretary to hold a meeting to discuss the issue.

New Year's Day is coming soon, and the factory has been very busy these days.

The work of these three foreign experts has also come to an end.

But they liked the food He Daqing cooked more and more, and they kept asking He Daqing to cook Chinese food for them to change their taste.

During this time they became increasingly fascinated with Chinese food.

In Carl's words, "Western food is for filling up, while Chinese food is for eating well."

This has made He Daqing think all day long recently about what kind of dishes to cook for these three uncles that will suit their tastes.

After work that day, He Daqing just got home and saw an old lady supporting Yi Zhonghai slowly coming back.

Yi Zhonghai looked very embarrassed.

Not only did he walk with a limp, but his entire right hand was wrapped up like a big dumpling and hung in front of his chest, unable to move freely.

He Daqing saw it and shouted to Yi Zhonghai, "Hey, Old Yi, why are you back so soon? I said I would go to the hospital to see you when I have time in the next few days."

"You recovered too quickly, didn't you? I thought you would have to stay in the hospital for at least ten days or half a month. I didn't expect you to be discharged so soon?"

He Daqing's words made Yi Zhonghai so angry that he glared at him fiercely.

Then he snorted coldly, turned around, and quickened his pace to go home.

He really didn't want to bother with that bastard He Daqing right now.

Since he came back, nothing has gone smoothly for me. Now he is openly laughing at me.

He Daqing watched Yi Zhonghai flee in embarrassment after being squeezed out by him. He went back humming a little tune in triumph.

The meal at home was ready and the family was waiting for him to eat.

New Year's Day is coming soon, which means Shazhu is getting married soon.

Shazhu has been cheerful these days and is in a good mood no matter what he does.

He Daqing said as he ate, "Zhu Zi, have you been to Yu Li's house these days?"

Sha Zhu laughed and said, "Dad, I went there yesterday."

"Did your father-in-law tell you about your wedding?"

"Dad, Yu Li's family said that since conditions are not good now, there is no need to hold a big wedding. They just want us to have a meal together and have some fun."

"How many relatives can come to their house?"

Sha Zhu thought for a moment and said, "I heard from Yu Li that only her uncle and aunt came over from her family, and there are no other relatives."

Chen Xueru said, "Daqing, it would be bad if we don't invite the neighbors to Zhuzi's wedding this time. Many people have been asking about Zhuzi's wedding these days."

He Daqing put down his chopsticks and said, "You are right. I have been away for a few years, and Zhuzi and Yushui have received some care from our neighbors. This time, let's just return the favor."

"Food is so hard to come by now. I'm going to the mountains this Sunday to see if I can hunt any prey."

"We will set up two banquets at home to entertain our own people. We can make a big pot of stew for the neighbors in the yard and give each of them a bowl of food."

Chen Xueru said with some concern: "I heard that the rural areas are turning the mountains upside down. What can you gain by going there?"

"It's okay. I'll go in and take a look. It would be great if I can catch prey. If not, I'll come back."

Sha Zhu said excitedly: "Dad, can I go with you?"

He Daqing glared at him and said, "You have a lot of things to do, why are you following me to make trouble? Go buy everything you need this Sunday. Don't be in a rush when the time comes."

Although Sha Zhu wanted to go to the mountains to take a look, he dared not disobey his father.

The weekend soon arrived, and He Daqing pushed his bicycle out early in the morning.

He didn't plan to go to the mountains today. He still had a lot of wild boars and deer in his space. There was no need to go so far to suffer.

He Daqing rode his bike towards the north.

This is the suburban ruins that Yu Linhai mentioned.

Originally this was a royal garden, but it was burned down by foreign invaders.

I heard that this place was very magnificent and contained countless treasures.

But when He Daqing came here.

Before my eyes was a vast expanse of overgrown weeds and extremely desolate ruins.

From those messy marble carvings, one can vaguely see that they are all carefully carved.

All the usable wood and other materials here have been picked up.

But there are still a lot of collapsed and broken stone sculptures here. It is really a pity to see.

This is the profound lesson that if you fall behind you will be beaten!

It is also evidence of the crimes committed by those people back then!

He Daqing walked along the overgrown path further inside.

Looking at the exquisite carvings scattered everywhere, broken into pieces.

This is simply an insult to the Dragon Kingdom and a trampling on art.

Walking in it, He Daqing felt very heavy-hearted.

In both of his lives, he was proud of being a Dragon.

But when he saw the scene here, he felt sorry for this country that had suffered so much.

These are all artistic treasures left by our ancestors, and now they have been abandoned in the wilderness.

After being beaten by wind and rain, many exquisite things have become corrupt.

There is no road here now, so He Daqing can only walk slowly inside along the grass.

We came to a place that looked like a small square.

The square is now covered with withered weeds and some small trees are taller than people.

In a corner, He Daqing saw a large round vat carved from stone, like a big bowl.

There is also a marble base underneath.

This big bowl has a diameter of more than one meter and a depth of about seventy to eighty centimeters.

Because it is in the corner of a rockery. It has not been destroyed yet.

Although it looks a bit black and is covered with dirt and weeds, the exquisite carvings around it are still perfect.

He Daqing walked around it and started to clean it up.

This is indeed a good thing.

After thinking about it, He Daqing put it into the space.

Take this back and place it at the kitchen door. It should be fine to put a few fish in it then.

It's better than leaving it here to be exposed to the wind and sun.

Having gained something, He Daqing continued to walk inside.

The further you go inside, the more buildings are destroyed.

At the edge of a small forest, He Daqing found the purpose of his trip.

There were a few stone tables and seven or eight stone benches scattered here and there.

He Daqing walked over and carefully selected a complete round table and four exquisitely carved stone benches.

The main purpose of coming here this time has been achieved.

Next, He Daqing went around again.

This place is really too big and there is no road. When it was almost noon, He Daqing came out.

He didn't touch anything else, so he left it here to warn future generations.

Let them know that their country has been invaded!

Let them remember that they must never forget these national hatreds at any time!
