"Wow, this set is beautiful, let's try it later."

"Yuzhu, this men's suit is very suitable for you, you should try it on; but I always feel that this women's suit will make me look fatter, because I have narrow shoulders and may not be able to support it."

Under Chen Xueru's introduction, Xu Huizhen on the side was also actively choosing clothes.

He Yuzhu kept smiling and tried on the clothes that Xu Huizhen handed to him over and over again.

As time passed slowly, Xu Huizhen finally exhaled tiredly and said, "Xueru, let's choose these two sets. They are suitable for me and Yuzhu."

But she then complained, "This is all your fault, He Yuzhu. If you had come a few days earlier to choose the dress, it would have been better. And you could have customized it. Now we are in a hurry to hold the wedding, and it is too late to customize it!"

After saying this, she looked resentfully at He Yuzhu who was doing nothing on the side, blaming him for not starting to prepare for the wedding in advance.

He Yuzhu looked innocent. How could he be blamed for this? Wasn't it the beast in the courtyard who caused it?

He had wanted to start preparing for the wedding earlier, but he was summoned to the police station again and again to assist in the investigation, and he felt helpless!

"Huizhen, I'll take the clothes and help you iron them. I'll arrange for someone to deliver them to your house this afternoon. Is that okay?"

The thoughtful Chen Xueru interrupted at the right time.

Although Chen Xueru felt bitter in her heart, she still gave her best wishes when she thought about her best friend's upcoming wedding.

"Well, my good sister, you really care about me. I will repay you in this life!" Hearing this, Xu Huizhen happily took Chen Xueru's arm.

"How much are these two sets of clothes in total? Let's pay first." Looking at the intimate scene between the two women, He Yuzhu said with a smile.

For some reason, He Yuzhu always felt that there was something wrong with the way Chen Xueru looked at him.

Before He Yuzhu finished speaking, Chen Xueru quickly said, "No need to pay."

Chen Xueru noticed the two people's puzzled looks and explained to herself: "Just treat these two dresses as your wedding."

He Yuzhu and Xu Huizhen realized that they could not persuade Chen Xueru, so they thanked her and formally invited her to attend the wedding banquet.

After He Yuzhu and Xu Huizhen finished selecting the wedding dresses, they said goodbye to Chen Xueru, and Xu Huizhen took He Yuzhu to choose other things.

Chen Xueru stood at the door of the silk clothing store and watched the two of them leave.

The shop assistant asked Chen Xueru in confusion: "Boss, didn't you say that these two dresses are not for sale? Why this time..."

Chen Xueru interrupted her question: "Originally, they were prepared for newlyweds who are going to get married in the future!"

Chen Xueru slowly raised her head and looked up at the blue sky, waving goodbye to the past.

If you can't spend your life with the one you love, then use your favorite dress to fulfill that feeling for her.

After leaving Chen Xueru's shop, He Yuzhu and Xu Huizhen went to the supply and marketing cooperative and bought two watches, a radio and a sewing machine, thus completing the so-called "two turns and one ring" necessities.

The total cost was 438 yuan. As for the extra item - the bicycle, they simply ignored it because they both had one bicycle each and did not need to buy a new one. As He Yuzhu often said, "Save where you should save, and don't be stingy when you should enjoy."

When He Yuzhu was about to take out the money, Xu Huizhen stopped him and said with a smile: "I know you are short of money, so just keep it for where you need it! I still have the money you gave me before, which is just right for paying."

Xu Huizhen took money directly from her pocket and gave it to the salesperson.

Because He Yuzhu had given her two thousand yuan as an engagement fee as the cost of their marriage.

These are naturally part of the expenses for purchasing wedding necessities. They don't need to buy quilts, sheets and pillow sets separately for the time being because Xu Huizhen's mother had carefully prepared them for her before she died.

This is also a symbol of a mother's greatest love for her daughter.

He Yuzhu tacitly agreed that Xu Huizhen should pay the money to the supply and marketing cooperative, and he also took this opportunity to enjoy the love and care from his wife.

After everything was ready, the two of them returned to their new home in Maozi Hutong with their bags.

As soon as he got home, He Yuzhu went into the kitchen to wash vegetables and cook, while Xu Huizhen began to put up red "囍" for the new home.

The girl, He Yushui, also followed suit and helped to paste the word "囍".

Not long after the word "囍" was pasted, He Yuzhu prepared a delicious lunch and specially invited Master Li Guodong to come and eat together.

But what surprised him was that Master Li Guodong had been drinking honey black tea the entire morning and almost never put down the teacup.

"Master, will drinking it this way be more effective for you?" He Yuzhu couldn't help but ask curiously.

"Well...it may be slightly helpful, but after drinking two cups, the effect doesn't seem to be as significant as the first two cups." Master Li Guodong touched his beard embarrassedly and directly stated his actual feelings.

"Drinking more doesn't seem to have much effect. Master, how about trying another drink tomorrow?" He Yuzhu gave a constructive suggestion.

He Yuzhu did not expect that the magical healing effect of honey was also limited. In the morning, he gave a cup to his master, plus the master made two cups himself, a total of three cups, which was effective for his master's old injury.

He silently calculated in his mind and thought he had discovered a pattern of honey's magical effect. He could only wait for his master to drink honey tea tomorrow to verify whether his guess was true.

Hearing He Yuzhu's suggestion, Li Guodong sighed and nodded helplessly, hoping that drinking the honey tea tomorrow would still have an effect on his old injury, because the old injury could no longer recover slowly, which would make his expectations go unfulfilled and he would not be able to make further progress in martial arts, which would be a pity.

After dinner, He Yuzhu was about to start washing the dishes when there was an anxious knock on the courtyard door.

He Yuzhu went to open the door and saw that the person knocking was policeman Lin Fei.

"Officer Lin, what are you doing?" He Yuzhu was a little confused by this unexpected visitor.

"Xu Huizhen should be with you, right? I just heard Xu Yuanshan mentioned that his daughter is with you in Xu's Tavern." Lin Fei looked around the yard and said, looking at He Yuzhu with an inquiring look.

He Yuzhu replied: "Xu Huizhen is indeed here with me. We just had lunch."

"The court will hear Liu Guangqi's case today, and I've come here to remind you and Xu Huizhen to appear in court together." Lin Fei explained his purpose, after all, it was a case involving Xu Huizhen.

"Okay, I'll take Huizhen with me later!" He Yuzhu nodded.

"This is the compensation that the deaf old lady gave for breaking your window." After getting confirmation, Lin Fei directly stated his purpose, then took out ten yuan from his pocket and handed it to He Yuzhu.

After finishing all this, Lin Fei left in a hurry. The police work was still very busy.

At this time, Xu Huizhen appeared behind He Yuzhu and asked in confusion: "Zhuzi, why did the police come to us?"

"It's the man named Liu Guangqi who tried to harass you before, remember?" He Yuzhu turned to her, "The court will hold his trial this afternoon."

"So that's what happened." Xu Huizhen nodded, "That bad guy should be shot! He's so abominable!"

When Xu Huizhen heard that Liu Guangqi was going to be tried in court, she felt very happy.

In this era, no matter who you are, once you are convicted of hooliganism, according to the law, the prisoner will be shackled and charged, paraded through the streets for public display, and will most likely be sentenced to be shot.

The thought of this scene made Xu Huizhen even happier. She pulled He Yuzhu's arm and asked anxiously, "When will the trial start? Where will it be held? When will we go there?"

Facing his wife Xu Huizhen's expectant face, He Yuzhu smiled and agreed: "Okay, let's go now."

After saying hello to his sister He Yushui, the two rode their bicycles to the People's Court together.

As soon as they arrived at the courtroom of the People's Court, He Yuzhu and Xu Huizhen immediately saw the beastly group of people in the courtyard, including Yi Zhonghai, Liu Haizhong, Yan Bugui and others.

However, at this moment He Yuzhu didn't want to pay any attention to them at all. He was about to take Xu Huizhen to sit in the victim's seat when a figure quickly came into his sight.

This person is Liu Haizhong, the former second master of the Siheyuan.

He Yuzhu asked dissatisfiedly: "Liu Haizhong, what do you mean by stopping us?"

Liu Haizhong completely ignored He Yuzhu's questioning and kept looking at Xu Huizhen on the side: "Huizhen informed me that Guangqi's trial is about to begin. Can you promise not to mention in court that it was my son Liu Guangqi who was rude to you? I asked, if you don't say what Guangqi did to you, then at most he will be sentenced to ten years in prison."

Seeing that Xu Huizhen didn't say a word and didn't seem to have any intention of giving in, Liu Hai felt angry, but he could do nothing about it. He gritted his teeth and knelt down in front of her, asking with a choked voice: "Please, Comrade Huizhen!"

Liu Haizhong promised: "No matter what kind of request or compensation you need, I will agree to it. A ten-year prison sentence for Guangqi is already the most severe punishment. Do you really want my son to pay with his life?"

Seeing Liu Haizhong's begging, the silent Xu Huizhen flatly refused: "I don't want a penny of compensation! I hope that he will be tried according to the law and get the punishment he deserves!"

"I really can't imagine what would have happened to me if he had succeeded at that time. I know my personality, I would probably have committed suicide on the spot, so there is absolutely no way I would have forgiven him!"

At this moment, Xu Huizhen couldn't believe it. Liu Haizhong actually asked him to give false testimony in court and let Liu Guangqi go. These two people with the surname Liu were not worthy of being human beings at all. They were beasts.

Liu Guangqi committed evil and broke the law, and his father Liu Haizhong is no less evil!

Hearing Xu Huizhen's refusal, the desperate look in Liu Haizhong's eyes became even more serious. As a father, he hoped to save his son's life.

He suddenly looked at He Yuzhu who was eating watermelon nearby, and crawled over to him on his knees like a stray dog.

Liu Haizhong said to He Yuzhu, "Yuzhu, Grandpa He, you and Guangqi grew up in the same courtyard. Can you watch your friend who grew up with you accept such a sentence? Huizhen is your daughter-in-law, you should help me persuade her."
