Siheyuan: From the time I became a fool

"Second uncle, you are really generous. Only a seventh-level blacksmith like you can be so generous. How can ordinary families have such courage?

But why don't you hold the banquet after the New Year? At that time, people would say that they have too much fat in their stomachs. It's such a waste now!" He Yushui couldn't help but said

"Hey! Yes, whether it's held before or after the New Year, I don't have any objection to that. It's mainly about the woman's side! I'll just go along with it..." Liu Haizhong was laughing happily, with a look of pride on his face.

But there is also a bit of melancholy in this pride, because my son graduated from junior college and found a good in-law family.

They arranged for their son to have a good job, and his future achievements would not be worse than Li Huaide's. But because of this, his son would basically live there and would rarely come home.

It’s pitiful to see the love of parents in the world. Which parent doesn’t want the best for their children, let alone their eldest son whom they have high hopes for.

All he could do was to give his all so that his son could marry with dignity, so that he wouldn't be looked down upon after marriage!

But because of this, his two sons were very dissatisfied with him, although he suppressed them by force.

There is a very secret thing that he has been keeping in his heart. He knows it even without saying it, but he can't tell it. In fact, the atmosphere in their courtyard is not right.

Especially before the founding of the People's Republic of China, there were many cases of promiscuity. Yi Zhonghai was promiscuous and often went to the Eight Great Hutongs. Of course, he occasionally...

The most popular person at that time was He Daqing, who was a good cook and could bring in a lot of greasy food. Especially after his wife had a difficult childbirth...

Although cooks are considered to be of the lowest class and have no status, who dares to say that there is no shortage of food at home over the years?

So He Daqing was very popular among women. For a while, his wife was very close to He Daqing. Well, He Daqing even went to the movies with Jia Zhang.

This caused him to have a vague suspicion in his heart, but he couldn't say it. If he did, he would be helping someone else raise a son.

Even if this is really He Daqing's child, he absolutely cannot admit it! But he can control this matter rationally, but sometimes he can't control his emotions, so he can't help but get angry at the two boys! So he is doubly nice to his eldest son!

But he would definitely take this matter to his grave, and he would not even tell his wife about it, because he knew that once this matter was exposed, there would be no peace in the family!

In the evening of the next day, Liu Haizhong got the ingredients. He Yuzhu checked them and confirmed that they were good, and the menu was also ready.

Although some dishes do not have complete seasonings, there is not so much emphasis on this these days, and Liu Haizhong also agreed!

Through logistics, some pig offal was obtained. Of course, Liu Haizhong had to spend money on it, but he was given the cost price, which made Liu Haizhong so happy that he couldn't close his mouth.

The staple food is steamed buns made of two grams of flour. It is good to eat this these days, even at banquets.

As for the dishes, there were Kung Pao Chicken, Shredded Pork with Fish Flavor, Shredded Pork with Beijing Sauce, Stir-fried Liver Tips, Braised Pork, Chicken with Mushrooms, Mixed Stew, Stir-fried Pork Intestines, plenty of meat, and a meatball soup. Each person at the table could have a meatball, but this was a top-notch meal.

What's more, the meal He Yuzhu prepared was large in quantity and filling. Although there were more vegetables and slightly less meat, it still made everyone gasp.

This is considered to be a fairly long face with bangs.

After all, he didn't prepare the meat well. In fact, no one is stupid. We all know that this kind of frozen minced meat, if there is no good cook, will be really unpalatable when stewed. How to describe this thing? It's like chewing wood chips.

On the wedding day, quite a lot of people came, and everyone in the entire courtyard was called by Liu Haizhong.

Everyone added a little, some added a few sweet potatoes, some added half a pound of meat, some added 5 yuan, and some added yuan. After all, the food in Liu Haizhong is really good! You don't even need a ticket.

Even the Jia family gave 8 cents. He Yuzhu brought Ma Hua from the kitchen to help him and taught him how to cook some dishes.

As for the rest, the old ladies in the Siheyuan can help with it.

"Second uncle, my cousin happened to be here today. You wouldn't mind, would you? She's just a little girl from the countryside!"

Just as everyone was about to sit down, Qin Huairu came with her cousin. This made everyone feel a little uncomfortable, and what could Liu Haizhong say?

It was the wedding day of his eldest son, which was the most important thing in the family. The problem was that most of the female relatives did not come to the table, even Han Ruoshui did not come to the table. She just prepared some food and ate it at home with He Yushui.

It happened that all the men, women, young and old from the Jia family sat at the table!

"Hurry up and sit down!" Liu Haizhong said while biting his back teeth.

"Master, look at that girl. She's so pretty. Even though her cotton-padded jacket has patches on it, look at her little face!"

The meal was ready, and Ma Hua, who also sat at the table, almost drooled at He Yuzhu!

He Yuzhu turned around and patted his stupid apprentice on the head.

"She is indeed beautiful, but there is no quota. After marriage, the child's household registration can follow the mother. Are you sure?"

"No, no, no, no, no, this is not enough for me to eat. I can only eat in the kitchen to barely fill my stomach!"

Ma Hua's head was shaking like a rattle. Actually, he was not that old! He was only 15 when he came to the steel mill. Of course, his situation was quite common in the factory!

"That's it. Since you can't give her a daughter, don't have any inappropriate thoughts about her in the future. Don't take advantage of her and ruin her life!"

He Yuzhu is giving his apprentice some advice.

"Don't worry, Master. I understand. I will never do such a wicked thing that would harm others!"

Xu Damao also stared at Qin Jingru and said, "Zhu Zi, this girl is really pretty, she is prettier than my sister Qin.

It’s just that the transition from farmer to non-farmer is so troublesome. One of my friends is 30 and still hasn’t found a wife. But didn’t he marry a woman who fled from famine a while ago?

Apart from anything else, that girl is really attractive and pretty, but so what if she is pretty?

Not long after, she was sent back. They couldn't afford to support her. They couldn't afford to support her! There was a rumor that if they married a refugee, they would be given a place to settle down, but in the end, they couldn't.

At first it was said that the girl was alone, but who would have thought that the entire village, town, and county came together to escape the famine.

His house was almost emptied by that group of refugees, and people didn't say anything else, just said it was this girl's parents, brother, sister-in-law, uncle, aunt, and uncle!

They are starving to death, can you just ignore it? What is a praying mantis crossing the border?

Later, my brother and his family were so scared that they ran away! In the end, the police chief led a team to take away the group of refugees! Even so, he still made harsh words!

Luckily, it was quite chaotic at the time and we didn't get a marriage certificate. But even so, there were still some people who slipped through the net and wanted to kill my brother!"

"You slept with a virgin girl, in the name of marrying her, and then you just said you didn't want her. The girl's family will definitely go after your brother!

But every family is in difficulty now. It’s okay to support a wife, but no one can handle the people who come to extort money from them later.

Another scary thing is that if a woman marries someone for food, she will definitely find ways to get food to her parents' home as long as there is someone there. Even now, it is still like this. Everyone can only say that they will not starve to death, but whose family is really rich.

And the household registration is really a problem. How can we live without a fixed amount of food? " He Yuzhu couldn't help but sigh.

"So what happened later? Your brother and his family definitely didn't dare to live there anymore, and they didn't dare to go to the factory anymore!"

"That's not good. Later, I had no choice but to ask for help from others and exchange jobs with those working in the mines. Only then could I feel safe! But the work there was so tiring and dangerous!"

Xu Damao clicked his tongue twice and said, "Man, don't be too soft-hearted. Look at those poor people, they might take your life if you are not careful!"

"That family is dishonest." At this moment, Yi Xiaolong rolled his eyes at Xu Damao.

"Most of the women who escaped from famine would cut off all ties with their natal family if someone wanted them! It can only be said that there are bad things everywhere!"

"Yi Xiaolong, you mean you've cut off contact with the people on your side, and you're not causing trouble for Master Yi!"

Xu Damao sneered, "Then have you ever thought about your former uncles, relatives, and friends who are still starving, or even starving to death? Have you ever thought about helping them?"

"How can I help? I won't cause trouble for them, which is the greatest kindness I can do. How can I help others when I can't even survive myself!

My dad has to support a family of four with this little salary subsidy. In order for us to have enough food, my dad would definitely go to any place where he can work overtime! How could I be so ignorant! "

Yi Xiaolong glared at Xu Damao fiercely again
