At this time, Director Yang had quickly completed the letter of introduction to Director Zhou and stamped it with his personal seal.

Then he waved his hand and said to He Yuzhu:

"Forget about the engagement party. Let's wait until your sister's wedding day." After saying that, he handed over the letter of introduction.

But when He Yuzhu held the other end of the letter, Director Yang did not let go, but kept this posture, looked into He Yuzhu's eyes with a smile, and asked: "But, Yuzhu, when are you going to invite me to your wedding?"

Seeing that He Yuzhu was too embarrassed to respond, Director Yang glanced at him and advised him earnestly: "You should find a partner as soon as possible. You are almost thirty years old. Don't be so careless all the time."

"Settle down a family and build a career, settle down a family and build a career."

"If you don't start a family and settle down first, how can you better move forward?"

Director Yang didn't say anything more. He just reminded He Yuzhu a few words and then drove him out of his office. He Yuzhu walked out of Director Yang's office without realizing that Qin Huairu was secretly watching him.

He hummed a little tune and returned to the kitchen of the cafeteria.

As soon as I stepped into the kitchen, I was surrounded by Chef Yang and other chefs.

Everyone was curious about what treasure he had gotten when he went to find Director Yang to "fight the rich".

Faced with everyone's questioning, He Yuzhu smiled and took out a few industrial tickets and showed them off in front of everyone.

"When we come back from vacation the day after tomorrow, we can also become car owners!"

At that time, bicycles were very precious.

Even if you just go to a repair shop and spend more than a hundred dollars to have someone assemble a new bike using old bicycle parts,

It is enough to make many people jealous.

Moreover, He Yuzhu specifically asked Director Yang for the industrial ticket.

Apparently he was going to a department store to buy a brand new bicycle, which made people around him envious.

Everyone gathered around He Yuzhu and congratulated him.

Ma Hua took the opportunity to put down his notebook and came over, and even suggested whether we should buy a few strings of firecrackers.

I'll put it up when He Yuzhu buys a car to add some festive atmosphere.

However, this elicited a cold look from He Yuzhu, who then brought up the matter of the 10,000-word reflections, causing Ma Hua to retreat to his corner with a sad face.

It looks really pitiful.

He Yuzhu stayed in the kitchen for a while longer. Seeing that it was almost four o'clock in the afternoon, he packed up his things and prepared to go home.

Because the factory had no reception tasks today, the special kitchen for the leaders was not open, so He Yuzhu naturally did not bring back any dishes home like he did last night.

Although there was still a lot of food left in the cafeteria at noon, if it were in the past, He Yuzhu would definitely bring back two large full lunch boxes.

But now that he has the system, the system warehouse is filled with all kinds of food ingredients, and he has long looked down on those cabbage, radish and potato chips.

So he simply let Sister Wang and Master Yang take care of the distribution, and he only took four steamed buns home. Unexpectedly, his action made Sister Wang and the others grateful.

He kept praising Master He for being righteous, so much so that He Yuzhu felt a little complicated when he left the cafeteria.

The steel rolling mill is not too far from the courtyard where He Yuzhu lives.

He Yuzhu was holding four steamed buns.

About ten minutes after leaving the cafeteria, we saw the familiar old locust tree at the entrance of the alley. Under the bare trunk, Banggeng, his two sisters, and a few half-grown boys from the alley were chasing and playing around the trunk.

Especially Bang Geng’s laughter is the loudest.

It can be seen that he is in a very good mood today.

I remember that at noon, Qin Huairu gave up her pure image that she had maintained for many years in order to let He Yuzhu help her family solve the problem, and showed her kindness to him in the canteen kitchen. Although He Yuzhu rejected her and slapped her,

But judging from Qin Huairu's expression when she left the cafeteria, she was obviously unwilling to accept the factory's punishment and might have found other helpers.

However, no matter whether it was Xu Damao or Deputy Director Li, as long as they were not the original "Silly Zhu", Qin Huairu would have to pay a sufficient price if she wanted any man to lend a hand. He Yuzhu speculated about the possibility of malicious intent, and when he saw Banggeng running and playing like crazy at the moment, he couldn't help but outline a sarcastic smile at the corner of his mouth.

He Yuzhu couldn't help but sigh that Qin Huairu's family, from the old to the young, were truly rare, all of them were top-notch talents rarely seen in the world.

Especially Bang Geng. Almost all the troubles that their family has been in lately are due to Bang Geng's mischief. As a mother, Qin Huairu not only has to apologize and pay compensation,

She may even pay an unspeakable price for it, so that her deceased father cannot rest in peace. However, Banggeng is like nothing happened, with no guilt for the disaster he caused to the family. As soon as he got home from school, he just wanted to play around, completely ignoring the family situation.

"You really have no conscience at all."

He Yuzhu shook his head and ignored the group of children. He just glanced at Banggeng, then walked into the alley and went straight to his own courtyard.

However, to his surprise, there was a large group of people gathered at the gate of the courtyard today, busy doing nothing.

As I got closer, I saw that it was the third uncle Yan Bugui who was shouting and directing the crowd...

It turned out that Yan Bugui, who had received money from He Yuzhu before, was planning to replace the gate of the courtyard house with a new one! He Yuzhu was taller than the others, and as he approached, Yan Bugui quickly discovered him.

"Hey, Yuzhu, are you back from get off work?"

Yan Bugui smiled and nodded to He Yuzhu, who smiled back, and then turned his attention to the two doors Yan Bugui had just bought. These were two doors made of solid wood, not brand new.

However, it is well-made and made of solid materials, and even if you look at it with the most critical eyes, it can be considered to be at least 70% to 80% new.

This was enough to satisfy him, even though He Yuzhu's eyesight was not good enough to identify what kind of wood was used for the new door.

But when he walked over and knocked on the door, he turned around and looked at the other two old doors that had been dismantled and thrown aside.

He understood that Yan Bugui had really put a lot of thought into purchasing this door.

"Uncle, did you carefully select this door?" He Yuzhu smiled and gave Yan Bugui a thumbs up.

“What a great choice!”

Yan Bugui replied with a proud look on his face: "Of course!"

He pushed the frame of his glasses and boasted to He Yuzhu incessantly with a hint of reserve: "In order to choose this door, I rode my bike across half the city in my free time these two days!" Hearing this, He Yuzhu praised Yan Bugui several times in succession, which made Yan Bugui feel very pleased.

He did not talk much with He Yuzhu, but just said that when the door was replaced, he would go to He Yuzhu's house to talk to him. Then, Yan Bugui was busy instructing the two carpenters who were replacing the door panels. Even though He Yuzhu walked through the crowd and into the yard,

One could also hear Yan Bugui's excited and high-pitched voice giving orders at the gate of the courtyard:

"Hey, hey! Raise the left side a little bit!"

"No, it's still too low!"

"That person, hurry up and help, hold it steady!"

After entering the compound and standing at the door of his house, He Yuzhu could still hear Yan Bugui's shouting. He glanced at the dilapidated door of his house and thought: When I go to buy a bicycle on my day off the day after tomorrow, I will also buy a new door to take home.

A door that has been repaired like Xu Damao's is still somewhat sturdy, but it looks really ugly.

He Yuzhu has already discussed with He Yushui that he would ask her to bring her future brother-in-law over in a few days so that he can meet him and have a chat with him first.

It would be really embarrassing if my future brother-in-law saw such a broken door. Thinking of this, He Yuzhu took out the key, unlocked the door and entered the room. The scene in the room was the same as when he left in the morning.

He Yuzhu first put the four steamed buns he brought back into the kitchen and placed them properly. Then he turned around and turned on the stove that he had specially turned on to block the wind before leaving the house in the morning.

He found that there were still sparks inside, so he did not add any more firewood, but just threw a few coal balls into the stove.

Then he put the aluminum kettle full of water on the stove to boil. As for himself, he found a stool and sat down.

I took out the Tan Family Cuisine Notes that I had not finished reading today and continued to study it. As time passed, the kettle on the stove gradually emitted a series of continuous buzzing sounds as the water temperature in the kettle rose...

"Boom!"

Suddenly, there was a knock on the door.

He Yuzhu looked up.

The door was pushed open by the neighbor's uncle Yan Bugui, and he had already stepped into He Yuzhu's house.

"Yuzhu, didn't I tell you before that I had good news for you?"

"Now that I'm finally done with my work, I'm here to chat with you when I have some free time!" Yan Bugui said with a smile on his face.

After saying hello, he walked over and sat down on a chair opposite He Yuzhu.

However, before He Yuzhu could ask,

He first took out a twenty-cent coin from his pocket and placed it on the table in front of the two men.

Yan Bugui smiled and said:

"I have calculated that, apart from the money for buying the gate today,

Even though we still have to fix the plumbing and wiring in the yard, and there are some miscellaneous expenses, if we buy all the expensive ones, at least we can still save this much money.”

"This money should have been paid to you by Xu Damao, so I thought about it and decided that you should take the remaining part."

Although Yan Bugui spoke righteously, He Yuzhu was full of complaints in his heart. The gate that Yan Bugui replaced for the yard today was good, but it was a second-hand product after all and was unlikely to be worth much money. Moreover, this old man was always good at haggling over small matters.

He Yuzhu would never believe that after dealing with the so-called "official business" in the courtyard, Yan Bugui could be so honest that he did not keep any money for himself.

Is he coaxing a child?

Yan Bugui took out this one and a half yuan just to please him, to form an alliance with him and to keep his mouth shut. However, He Yuzhu did not want to accept this one and a half yuan.

So he pushed the money on the table back to Yan Bugui and said with a smile: "What use is this money to me?"

"It's better to let your uncle keep it."

He Yuzhu had already seen the distressed look in Yan Bugui's eyes. After pushing the money back to him, He Yuzhu said a few polite words.

Yan Bugui was so delighted by what He Yuzhu said that he finally accepted He Yuzhu's suggestion and put the one dollar and two cents back into his pocket.

Seeing Yan Bugui patting his coat pocket with satisfaction, He Yuzhu secretly mocked him. But he did not show it on the surface. Instead, he smiled and asked Yan Bugui:

"Uncle, you came to see me today specially, it shouldn't be just to tell me the good news, right?" If so, please go home quickly and don't linger here.

If not, please explain your intention as soon as possible.

Don't you know that your smile is like a blooming old chrysanthemum, which makes people feel uncomfortable? After He Yuzhu's reminder, Yan Bugui finally remembered the real purpose of his visit today. Yan Bugui sorted out his emotions a little, smiled and waved to He Yuzhu:

"How could it be because of such a small matter?"

He looked up at He Yuzhu, then pondered for a while, and no one knew what he was thinking about. Just when He Yuzhu couldn't help but ask directly,

Yan Bugui narrowed his eyes and slowly turned to He Yuzhu and began to talk, "This is what happened."

"Yuzhu, you are already quite old.

"Look at the neighbors in our yard, who is still single at your age?" Yan Bugui said with a smile, "But you were too close to Qin Huairu before, and you didn't see other girls in your eyes.

Even if everyone wants to introduce you to someone, seeing how you look, you would be embarrassed to bring it up, right?"

“So…” Yan Bugui deliberately dragged out his voice.

He Yuzhu was also happy to cooperate with him, took the initiative to take over the topic, and responded with a pretended happy look, "So, Uncle San, the good news you want to tell me is to introduce me to a girlfriend?"

"That's right!" Yan Bugui clapped his hands and said with a smile.

"Since you call me Third Uncle, as your elder, shouldn't I help you solve your marriage problems?"

He said with emotion, "Fortunately, you woke up in time and cut off contact with Qin Huairu's family, so I dared to ask you what you think.

Otherwise, you will miss out on the good things today!"

Yan Bugui wanted to show off and demonstrate his merits to He Yuzhu, so he never revealed the woman's name. However, He Yuzhu knew the whole story. In the original story, Yan Bugui did try to set up a match for He Yuzhu.

But he only accepted the gift and did not do anything. He did not even mention He Yuzhu's name to the young female teacher Ran Qiuye in the school.

His real intention was to get some matchmaking gifts from Sha Zhu!

Later, due to the various disturbances of the "enthusiastic neighbors" in the courtyard led by Qin Huairu, the marriage that originally belonged to Sha Zhu was declared over before it even began, and it came to an end. He Yuzhu already had a guess in his mind, and naturally didn't want to watch Yan Bugui continue to act. He rolled his eyes, pretended to be impatient, and said to Yan Bugui:

"Uncle, please stop being so mysterious."

Then he straightened his back, looked seriously into Yan Bugui's eyes, and made a solemn promise.

"Which girl do you want to introduce to me?

If it really works out, I will definitely include your share of the matchmaker's gift!" Upon hearing He Yuzhu's answer, Yan Bugui's eyes immediately lit up. Then, he waved to He Yuzhu happily:

"Hey, what are you talking about?"

Yan Bugui clenched his fists and coughed softly a few times into his chest.
