Siheyuan: Steel Mill Driver

"Please keep this passbook. I'll ask you for money when you need it in the future."

Actually I wanted to buy you a bicycle sewing machine, but I didn't have a ticket, so I didn't buy it! But if you need anything, just tell me. My brother has bicycle sewing machines.

Tang Xin sighed and said, "Zhu Zi, I know what you're thinking. I just want to have enough food and clothes to wear. I'm not that materialistic."

"If you don't have a bicycle, you can still take the bus. If you want to make clothes, you can use your hands, too."

"Oh, you don't know my brother. He's been married for such a long time, but he's never turned on his sewing machine!"

Tang Xin asked in surprise: "Why buy a sewing machine if they don't use it?"

Sha Zhu was about to say that it was his father-in-law who accompanied him, but then he thought something was amiss and didn't say it.

"Who knows? Maybe I have money but nowhere to spend it!"

Tang Xin looked at the passbook in his hand, opened it and took a look, then said in surprise: "Zhu, Zhuzi, how come there is so much money?"

"Haha, it's okay, you can just put your mind at ease. I promise to make you fat and plump."

"Go away, I'm not a pig."

Tang Xin's sister, Tang Xiaomei, also took a curious look, then her eyes widened. Just as she was about to speak, Tang Xin covered her mouth and said, "Shut up, you can't tell anyone about this. Also, this is your brother-in-law's money, don't think about it."

Tang Xiaomei pouted and said, "I'm not stupid, how could I say that? Besides, you just got married and your heart is already following your brother-in-law. Poor me."

Before she could finish, she felt a pain in her waist and complained, "Oh, sister, are you really pinching me?"

When Sha Zhu saw Liu Lan and the cooking chef coming, he said, "Okay, you guys prepare the melon seeds. Liu Lan is here, I'll go make some arrangements."

Li Feng was bored and eating melon seeds. He looked at Liu Lan and said, "Hey, Sister Lan is here."

Liu Lan smiled and said, "Haha, I came here to help. Didn't you come back recently? Why didn't you come over for dinner?"

"Don't mention it! We've been repairing the Grand Canal and transporting supplies during this period, so we don't have time to go to the cafeteria!"

Liu Lan said this, took out five yuan and said, "Write the gift for me first, I'll be busy and forget it later!"

Li Feng took the money and said to He Yushui, "Just write Liu Lan."

Liu Lan looked at He Yushui and said, "Hey, Li Feng, this isn't your little wife, is she? She looks young enough!"

"Hey, what are you talking about, Sister Lan? She is He Yuzhu's sister, and her name is He Yushui."

"Yushui, this is your brother's kitchen helper, her name is Liu Lan, you can just call her Sister Lan."

"Sister Lan."

"Oh, what a misunderstanding! This is He Yuzhu's sister! She is so pretty, but a little thin."

As she spoke, she watched He Yushui write the gift account. Now there was only one name on the book, that was Li Feng's. She looked at Li Feng in surprise and asked, "Fifty? You wrote quite a lot!"

"Haha, not bad!"

"The word 'Rain Water' is really well written! By the way, Li Feng, where is your wife?"

"Him, she's from the street, she's at work now."

Liu Lan looked at Li Feng and said, "Tang Xin, did you see it?"

Li Feng asked in confusion: "Tang Xin? Who is Tang Xin? Don't you know him?"

Liu Lan patted her head and said, "She's Sha Zhu's new wife. Her name is Tang Xin. I introduced her to her. What do you think? Is she pretty?"

"It's okay, what's wrong?"

"Haha, you kid! I wanted to introduce Tang Xin to you, but I didn't expect you to get married so soon!"

After listening to this, He Yushui rolled her eyes at Liu Lan and said, "My brother is getting married today. Do you think this is appropriate?"

"Haha, the little girl has quite a temper!"

"Okay, I'm going to help pack the ingredients, you guys go ahead and get busy."

"Huh, what a big mouth."

Li Feng smiled and said, "All the women in the kitchen are like this. If they don't say anything every day, it would be boring!"

He Yushui looked at Li Feng and said, "Brother Gousheng, you have to promise me that you won't have any ideas about Tang Xin. It's not easy for my brother to find a wife."

"What are you thinking, little girl? Am I that kind of person?"

"Yes, you are that kind of person. Don't think I don't know about you, Lou Xiao'e, humph!"

"Oh my god, how come everyone knows about such a trivial thing?"

He Yushui looked at him and said, "Only I know it, no one else knows it. If you really want to, then you can find me. Please don't provoke her, okay?"

"Silly girl, am I such a bad person in your heart?"

"Well, you are so bad."

"Here, I'll give you some pine nuts to keep you from having idle thoughts."

"That's just right. I have two pieces of sorghum candy here as well."

Time passed quickly and it was time to get off work. More people came to write gifts, so Li Feng and He Yushui also became busy and did not finish until just before the meal started.

The two of them checked the amount of money and confirmed it was correct. He gave the money to He Yushui, then sat next to his wife and said, "Hey, Brother Damao is back. I thought you couldn't make it!"

Xu Damao smiled and said, "How can I miss it? I still remember that when I got married, Shazhu forced me to drink a lot. Today, I have to get him drunk no matter what."

After He Yushui collected the gift bills and the money, she came back and heard what Xu Damao said. She said speechlessly in her heart: You should take a break. Your hometown has been destroyed, and you are still conceited!

He Yushui sat down next to Ding Fengqin and said, "You must be Gousheng's wife! You are so beautiful, no wonder Gousheng likes you so much!"

When Ding Fengqin heard this, she felt something was wrong, and said with a sour taste: "You are He Yuzhu's sister, Yushui!"

After saying that, he held He Yushui's hand and said, "Are you angry because you saw me? Are you angry that I stole your brother Gousheng?"

He Yushui's face immediately turned red and she said, "No way, don't talk nonsense, it's not true."

Ding Fengqin smiled, and no one knew what she was thinking of. She leaned over and whispered something in He Yushui's ear. Before she could finish her words, He Yushui was so scared that she ran to sit on the other side of Li Feng in a panic.

Ding Fengqin couldn't help but laugh when she saw her expression!

At this time, Sha Zhu and Tang Xin came out and said, "Thank you all for coming to my wedding banquet. We two would like to toast everyone and thank you for coming and blessing us."

The deaf old lady at another table looked at this with indescribable pain and emotion in her heart. Yi Zhonghai beside her patted the old lady's hand and said, "Don't think about it. Eat quickly, or the food will be gone soon!"

After Sha Zhu asked Tang Xiaomei to sit next to He Yushui, he and Tang Xin also sat down and said, "Everyone, come and eat. What are you waiting for? Eat."

After seeing Tang Xin's appearance, Xu Damao felt that it was a waste for her to marry Sha Zhu and said, "Sha Zhu, I never thought that you could get married so soon!"
