Love in the Siheyuan: Starting from Jia Dongxu

"You don't need to write a self-criticism, it will go into the archives." Director Wang waved his hand. "Just write a manuscript on spiritual civilization construction for me to see. If it's qualified, we will organize a study session in the courtyard."

"Okay, okay." Jia Dongxu agreed quickly. This little thing was easy to handle. He just had to piece together some words in his mind.

At this time, Sha Zhu came over and saw Jia Dongxu, his eyes widened, "Dongxu, where is Xu Damao's grandson?"

"He was taken to the police station and was told he was going to jail!" Jia Dongxu said as he stepped forward and hugged Sha Zhu. "Zhuzi, I'm sorry for not finding you a good wife."

"Dongxu, I remember everything you said to me that night. I don't blame you for what you said!"

Sha Zhu looked at Jia Dongxu, "Dongxu, you are getting married today, let's go back and prepare a wedding banquet for you."

Sha Zhu said as he walked out, rubbing his nose.

Jia Dongxu hurried forward, "Zhu Zi, are you okay?"

There's something wrong with this silly Zhu's behavior. He's nothing like his previous carefree self.

"It's okay, I'm fine." Sha Zhu forced himself to walk, "Dongxu, I'm really fine."

After saying that, he ran to the side and cried.

Jia Dongxu asked Jia Zhangshi and Qin Huairu to push Sha Zhu's bicycle back, and he went to Sha Zhu's side.

After he finished crying, she handed him a cigarette and said, "Zhu Zi, have a cigarette."

Sha Zhu took the cigarette and took out the matches, but he couldn't even light a few. In a hurry, he threw the cigarette and matches away.

"Dongxu, you're right, we should send her back." Shazhu leaned against the wall and asked, "When I left, he said he wanted to bring his parents over to look after the child, and I didn't agree, so we got upset."

"He really thinks I'm stupid. I have to support her whole family by myself."

"Zhu Zi, stop talking. She is just a country girl who is ambitious but lacks knowledge. She wants to climb up the social ladder and change the fate of her family. If she misses you, it will be her loss."

Jia Dongxu leaned against Sha Zhu and said, "I'm sorry, Zhuzi, I meant well but ended up doing something bad. That wild girl has ruined your reputation."

"I don't blame you. In the final analysis, I have to thank that grandson Xu Damao. Otherwise, if I had married that girl, I would really not be able to hold my head up high."

Sha Zhu said, wiping his face, "I'm only 16 years old, and I'm already the deputy director of the steel mill. Am I still worried about not being able to find a wife in the future?"

"Well, let's find a good wife in the future." Jia Dongxu helped Sha Zhu up and walked towards home.

"You are still young now, and it will take another four years before you get married. There is a lot of time, Zhezhe, let's take our time to choose."

"Okay, let's take our time to choose!" Sha Zhu said with a smile.

When the two returned home, Sha Zhu pushed Jia Dongxu away and went to the kitchen to cook.

Jia Dongxu went in to accompany Sha Zhu, "Zhu Zi, how about you cook the banquet over there today?"

Next week, my father-in-law's family in the security department over there is going to make western noodles. We agreed on the price of 12 yuan. He should come over to eat your food today.

"Really? Then I have to show my strength." Sha Zhu said and focused his attention on cooking.

I continued to think about the time when I went to Changping and asked Sha Zhu whether he liked his wife or cooking. Now I can see Sha Zhu’s choice.

Now Sha Zhu is completely absorbed in cooking, completely different from his appearance outside the Military Control Commission.

Seeing Sha Zhu cooking seriously, Jia Dongxu went upstairs to get out paper and pen and started writing the manuscript on spiritual civilization construction, waiting for Director Wang to come and show it to her.

By the time he finished writing, Jia Zhang had already borrowed a table and chairs in the yard.

There were two tables in the living room and three tables outside.

After a while, the aunts who helped in the kitchen came back, took the dishes from their respective homes and started washing them.

Yan Bugui was holding a pen and a piece of paper to record the gift list.

People in the yard also began to come over one after another to give gifts, and Jia Zhang arranged seats for them.

When almost everyone in the courtyard had arrived, Jia Zhang saw Jia Dongxu accompanying Sha Zhu in the kitchen, so she pushed him out and asked him to go upstairs to change his clothes.

After a while, Chen Zhonghua, Hu Wei, Zhang Daniu from the steel rolling mill and three officers from the security department also arrived.

Finally, Zhang Weimin from the Logistics Department also arrived. After a while, Director Wang also came over to give a gift. He sat next to Zhang Weimin and the people from the steel rolling mill at a table, chatting and laughing.

Yan Bugui looked at the gifts from his colleagues at the steel rolling mill, which were 10 or 5 yuan each, and was amazed. The gifts from his neighbors were not as much as the one person from the steel rolling mill.

What he didn't expect the most was that Director Wang also gave him 5 yuan. It seems that Jia Dongxu and Director Wang have a close relationship.

Why was I so dumbfounded at that time and wanted to be a boss?

After waiting for a while, Yan Bugui saw that no one came, so he quickly squeezed to a table. His two sons had already reserved a seat for him. If he didn't come over, he would be kicked out.

The little sea lion was not allowed to sit at the table at this time, but fortunately Yan Jiecheng was allowed to sit at the table, so there were three people in his family who could sit at the table.

I contributed 2 cents to the meal, so I have to eat it back today. After seeing that everything in my family had been written down on the table, Yan Bugui nodded with satisfaction. He was full after today's meal, and he wouldn't have to think about meat for the next month.

Yi Zhonghai's wife came to his house. Yi Zhonghai was worried and didn't want to go out.

Liu Haizhong's wife came with her three children, while Liu Guangqi and his mother followed one child each.

The same was true for other families, with their children following behind them without taking up any seats.

After Jia Dongxu brought Qin Huairu down the stairs and thanked everyone, the meal officially began. Several aunts brought the dishes to the table in a continuous stream.

Jia Dongxu brought Qin Huairu to the coffee table and was surprised that Zhang Weimin came. He had invited him out of courtesy at the time, but he didn't expect that he would actually come.

After the toast, Jia Dongxu and Qin Huairu went back upstairs.

"Do you want to go downstairs and drink with them?" Qin Huairu asked Jia Dongxu while looking at the excitement downstairs.

Jia Dongxu smiled and said, "I'm not going to make things difficult for myself. There are so many people here, and if each of them drinks a sip, I'll get drunk."

"Huai Ru, let's get married." Jia Dongxu held Qin Huai Ru's hand.

"It's so lively today." Qin Huairu said happily as she listened to the noisy voices downstairs, "People say that the more lively the wedding banquet is, the more prosperous your life will be in the future."

"Then maybe we didn't prepare enough wine? We should prepare more wine today so that everyone can get drunk and it will be more lively."

"That's good, I'm very satisfied. Thank you for letting me live such a good life." Qin Huairu said with a smile.

Jia Dongxu embraced Qin Huairu and said, "It's still too early. We still have a lifetime to go there. How about we hold a wedding banquet on our 60th anniversary of marriage?"

"Why don't you say we can do it in 70 years?" Qin Huairu said with a smile.

“Then we’ll do it even if we’ve been married for 70 years!”
