Siheyuan: Since 51

Lin Zhiyuan sat down on the sofa, threw a big front door, crossed his legs, and asked with a smile, "Tell me, what's going on?"

Zhou Liping took the cigarette, lit it, took a puff, and exhaled a long puff of smoke.

"It was you who introduced Yongqiang to someone. My Wenfang was busy all the time and arranged at least seven or eight times, but none of them worked out. Guess what happened in the end?"

"Okay, I'll leave this to you."

Lin Zhiyuan admitted his feelings first, but didn't indulge him. He rolled his eyes and said, "I won't guess. If you want to say something, just say it now."

"Hey, you man."

Zhou Liping raised his eyebrows slightly and said speechlessly: "He is actually dating Xiaomin."

"What?" Lin Zhiyuan was stunned. "Yongqiang and Xiaomin?"

Zhou Liping snorted coldly and muttered, "That's right, you said this matter is weird."

Lin Zhiyuan took a puff of cigarette, calmed himself down, pondered for a moment, thought it was a good idea, and spoke immediately.

"If the two of them get along, what's the problem? Although Yongqiang is average-looking and seven years older than Xiaomin, he is a section-level cadre and has a rich family. Are you unhappy?"

Zhou Liping scratched the back of his head and sighed.

"It's not that I'm not happy about it, it's just...how should I put it, it's a little embarrassing!"

"Embarrassment, Xiaomin's happiness is the right thing to do. Besides, he used to call you Liping, but from now on he has to call you brother. Just tell me, did you make a fortune?"

"I... now that you put it that way, it's true."

Ren Yongqiang acted very quickly and went to visit the Zhou family during the New Year carrying a lot of bags.

Just after the sixth day of the New Year, Old Lady Deng brought a matchmaker to the house and cut the Gordian knot to arrange the marriage.

Then, just after the 15th, the contact person came to repair the house.

Originally wanted to find someone to make furniture, but when she heard the other party say it would take at least two months, the usually gentle old lady Deng, for once, didn't look friendly to her.

He went out happily every day and made seven or eight trips to the trust store and the supply and marketing cooperative.

The furniture and daily necessities are all in place.

After the new year, work resumed and for more than half a month, Li Huaide was elusive and rarely appeared in public.

When he had nothing to do, Lin Zhiyuan went for a walk.

Li Huaide's office door was locked.

Lin Zhiyuan couldn't help but frown. What was he busy with every day?

I knocked on the door, but no one answered.

Without waiting any longer, he turned around and returned to the office.

Making tea and reading a book, the whole morning passed.

At noon, I went to the cafeteria to eat and met Xu Damao by chance.

The two chatted as they walked.

Suddenly, Xu Damao knocked on Lin Zhiyuan's arm a few times and said in a low voice: "Brother Zhiyuan, look, that's Zhang Suqiu's wife. What's her name? Liu Yanyan."

Lin Zhiyuan glanced sideways and asked, "The one with long hair?"

"Correct."

It’s not far away and I can see it clearly.

About twenty years old, but that's right, Zhang Suqiu is not yet thirty.

She has a fair face, willow-shaped eyebrows and cherry lips, which is indeed quite attractive.

Retracting his gaze, Lin Zhiyuan continued walking and asked casually, "She works in logistics?"

Xu Damao nodded and said, "Yes, I heard that Director Li arranged for me to be a recorder in the fleet."

"Oh? Educated?"

Xu Damao shrugged. "How would I know that?"

"That's true." Lin Zhiyuan couldn't help but shook his head, "Let's go, it has nothing to do with us, let's go eat quickly."

March 3th, the 17th day of the second lunar month, Sunday.

Old Mrs. Deng carefully selected a good day.

Lin Zhiyuan has always been close to the Zhou family, and Zhou Xiaomin has called him brother for nearly ten years, so he attended the meeting directly as the representative of the woman.

When I came to Ren Yongqiang's house again, I almost didn't recognize him.

The courtyard was tidy and neat, with three main rooms, all kept clean and tidy.

Old Mrs. Deng moved to the west wing with Ren Hongjun.

Busy running around, welcoming and seeing off guests.

Old Mrs. Deng was still standing still, but her face was full of smiles.

Holding Lin Zhiyuan, he kept sighing.

"Zhiyuan, it's all thanks to you. I like Xiaomin the moment I see her. She's quiet and gentle, and you can tell she lives a down-to-earth life..."

After listening to the nagging patiently, Lin Zhiyuan laughed heartily and said, "Grandma Deng, I am your mother's family member today. You must promise me that Xiaomin will not be bullied after she enters the house."

Old Mrs. Deng glared, "With me here, who dares to bully Xiaomin? Yongqiang? Let him try, I will break his legs."

Lin Zhiyuan laughed, "Okay, I feel relieved when you say that!"

There are three tables in total.

Qiao Zhuqing was also there, sitting with Old Lady Deng and the elders.

Neighbors gathered around a table.

Lin Zhiyuan, Zhou Liping, Sun Ping'an, and Ren Yongqiang and several colleagues from the police station sat at the same table.

After the simple ceremony, Ren Yongqiang grinned and led Zhou Xiaomin to toast each table.

After a while, he came to Lin Zhiyuan's desk.

Before the two newlyweds opened their mouths, Sun Ping'an laughed and joked.

"Brother Yongqiang, the marriage certificate has been obtained and the girl has been taken home. From now on, if you bully Xiaomin, our family members will not be happy about it."

Ren Yongqiang snorted and pretended to be serious, "Ping An, you are disrespectful. From now on, you have to call Xiao Min sister-in-law."

Lin Zhiyuan immediately interrupted, "Hey, that's not right. Xiaomin called me brother who is ten years younger than me. Are you sure you want me to call her sister-in-law? You better think about it."

Li Hu was not afraid of the trouble and immediately agreed, "Yongqiang, think it over first, Liping is sitting at the table."

"I……"

Ren Yongqiang was startled, then he admitted defeat decisively, "Brothers, come on, thank you for your support, I will drink first as a sign of respect."

"One cup is not enough. Count carefully, how many brothers are there at this table?"

"That's right, come one by one."

……

After three cups, Zhou Xiaomin reached out to stop them, "Brothers, how can you drink like that? He hasn't eaten anything for a whole day."

"Hey, you're protecting me right after I entered the door?"

As soon as Lin Zhiyuan finished speaking, Ren Yongqiang's colleagues at the police station also started to make jokes.

"Hey, brothers, let's hold back."

"Yes, there is something important happening tonight."

……

Each word was more explicit than the last, and Zhou Xiaomin's face turned red.

Lin Zhiyuan took out a red book from his bag, which was still a collection of essays, and handed it over to help.

"Come here, Xiaomin. I have watched you grow up. Take it. You know your brother Zhiyuan's habits. The statue has been placed in the room for a long time. Take a book and read it!"

……

After a happy gathering, Ren Yongqiang finally said goodbye to being single.

After the drinking party, Lin Zhiyuan went home slightly tipsy.

living room.

Wu Xia and Qin Huairu were eating melon seeds while Lin Jialiang was holding the two little ones and making faces from time to time.

Lin Manyu was standing by, coaxing the baby with a rattle.

Lin Zhihao and Xiao Shufan were nowhere to be seen.

After entering the door, Lin Zhiyuan asked with a smile, "Second Uncle, Second Aunt, you didn't go out today?"

Wu Xia glanced at Lin Jialiang and replied with a smile: "Well, I just came back not long ago."

After that, he asked, "How much did you drink?"

Lin Zhiyuan waved his hand, "Not much, just half a pound."

Lin Jialiang handed the two little guys in his arms to Qin Huairu and Lin Manyu respectively, and said, "Let's go to the east wing. I just happen to have something to talk to you about."
