Love in the Siheyuan: Starting from Jia Dongxu

When it was dark, Jia Dongxu got up.

Seeing people drinking downstairs, Jia Dongxu also felt a little hungry.

After going downstairs and drinking a few glasses of wine with Master Lei and others, Jia Dongxu felt much clearer.

"Chief Jia, how is this house?" Master Lei asked with a smile, raising his glass to toast Jia Dongxu.

"Okay, but the soundproofing is not very good at night." Jia Dongxu said after finishing his drink.

Master Lei laughed and said, "There's nothing we can do about this. How about we adjust the time so it's not at night?"

Jia Zhang and others were eating in the kitchen. When they heard what they said, they couldn't help but whisper, "They started talking nonsense after drinking a few mouthfuls of horse urine."

"Zhu Zi, don't be like Dong Xu, who talks nonsense after drinking a little." Jia Zhang said, looking at the silly Zhu who was eating nearby.

"Aunt Jia, I'm tight-lipped. I'll just listen and not say anything." Sha Zhu glanced at Qin Huairu and laughed.

When Jia Zhang saw Sha Zhuyang, she couldn't help but said angrily, "Bah, you little bastard, you've become a bad boy following Dongxu."

Then he looked at Sha Zhu and said, "Dong Xu said he would introduce you to a wife. How is it going now?"

"Mom, it's only been three days, how can it be so fast?" Qin Huairu said, looking at Zhuzi and said, "I told my sister-in-law to introduce a wife to him."

Jia Zhang said, looking at Sha Zhu, "That's fine. Zhuzi should find a wife as soon as possible to start a family. In the Qing Dynasty, boys could start a family at the age of 14 or 15, and Zhuzi is already 16."

"Yes, the landlord's son in our village got married at the age of fifteen." Qin Huairu said.

Sha Zhu was very interested. She got married at a younger age than him. "What happened next?"

"What happened next? Later he was kidnapped by the Japanese in the city." Qin Huairu said.

After hearing this, Sha Zhu couldn't help but snorted, then said, "Then you have to keep an eye on yourself, don't let anyone snatch you away."

Qin Huairu got angry after hearing this. She snatched the bowl from Sha Zhu and wanted to kick him out.

Jia Dongxu saw Jia Zhang also pointing at Sha Zhu and saying something.

"What's wrong?" Jia Dongxu hurried into the kitchen and asked.

Jia Zhang pointed at Sha Zhu and talked for a while before saying, "This Zhu is being stupid. He told Huairu to be careful and not let anyone snatch it away."

Jia Dongxu couldn't help but laugh when he heard this, "Zhu Zi, do you have so little confidence in me, your brother?"

"Don't say anything more, just drink three cups of your own accord. I had something happy to tell you, but I won't tell you because you made my wife angry."

Jia Dongxu looked at Sha Zhu with a smile and said to Qin Huairu, "You are mine, no one can take you away from me."

"Bah, I won't talk to you anymore." Qin Huairu blushed, put down the bowl and left the kitchen. It was so embarrassing to say this in front of so many people.

Seeing the half bowl of rice left by Qin Huairu, Jia Dongxu said, "Wife, don't run away. You haven't finished your meal yet."

"We'll eat later." Qin Huairu said as she ran upstairs without looking back.

Jia Dongxu picked up the bowl and chopsticks and picked up some dishes. "Okay, I'll take the meal to her first. If the meal gets cold, she'll have a stomachache."

Jia Zhang looked at Jia Dongxu and said to Sha Zhu, "Zhuzi, did you see that? You should love your wife like this in the future and learn some good things from your brother Dongxu. Don't follow those shady people outside and learn some nonsense."

"Oh, I know, Aunt Jia." Sha Zhu blushed and buried his head in his food. Then he stretched his head out to look outside, "Aunt Jia, Brother Dongxu said I have a happy event. What is it?"

"You are so stupid. Happy events, happy events, what is a happy event?" Jia Zhang couldn't help but give Sha Zhu a blank look. How could He Daqing, such a smart man, raise such a stupid son.

Sha Zhu muttered to himself, "I don't know, that's why I'm asking!"

"Oh, it's about introducing you to a partner." Jia Zhang wanted to pry open the butchered pig's head to see if it was full of paste.

"Really? I have to go ask Dongxu." Sha Zhu quickly stood up and asked.

"Stop, wait for your brother Dongxu to come down and ask." Jia Zhang said, "Don't go to his room for no reason in the future."

Jia Zhang looked upstairs and saw that Jia Dongxu hadn't come down yet. She curled her lips and said to the rain beside her, "There are no night owls tonight."

After Jia Dongxu went upstairs, he didn't come down for a long time. Sha Zhu looked at the dishes and wine on the table and looked upstairs.

"Aunt Jia, why hasn't Dongxu come out yet?" said Sha Zhu to the parent who was boiling water nearby.

"You, hurry up and get ready for bed." Jia Zhang said with a smile, "Zhu Zi, I bought some beef bones this morning. Go back and make some soup for your brother Dong Xu."

"Hey, it'll be here soon. You can drink it tomorrow morning." Sha Zhu said, and found a pot. Aunt Jia lowered the fire in the stove and simmered the pot first.

Sha Zhu started throwing beef bones and other things into the pot and slowly started a fire.

"Aunt Jia, just simmer it for two hours with a little spark, and it will still be warm tomorrow morning." Sha Zhu said with a smile, "I want to drink a bowl tomorrow morning."

Jia Zhang was annoyed when she heard this and said, "Rainwater is good for growing, but you, a bachelor, can't drink it."

"If I don't drink, you can't drink either." Sha Zhu muttered.

"Why should I drink that stuff? It's just making me suffer." Jia Zhang rolled her eyes, went out to the backyard to get a bowl, and brought a basin of hot water to the old lady on the way.

"Zhu Zi, why aren't you eating the food on the table?" Yan Bugui asked as he came in at the door. After taking a look, he couldn't help but pick up the chopsticks to eat.

"What are you doing, Teacher Yan?" Sha Zhu said unhappily, "This is for tomorrow's food, why are you messing around?"

It seems that Jia Dongxu will not come down today, so Sha Zhu put the dishes into the kitchen.

"Hey, if you don't eat this it will go bad tomorrow." Yan Bugui was quick and grabbed a piece of bone, sucking it in his mouth.

"Okay, Teacher Yan, this is not something you should worry about. Tell me what you want to say quickly. It's late at night and we all need to go to bed." Sha Zhu tidied the table and fetched some hot water for Yu Shui to take a bath.

"Zhu Zi, you guys take a bath every day, and burning firewood costs a lot of money." Yan Bugui said when he saw this.

Sha Zhu looked at Yan Bugui with dissatisfaction, "No, Teacher Yan, we are all going to sleep, what are you doing?"

"Zhu Zi, your idea is wrong. I am dealing with serious matters here." Yan Bugui said.

After hearing this, Sha Zhu got anxious and threw the hot water he had scooped over, "Old Yan, if you say you want to make up for the zodiac today, your whole family will not be able to sleep."

Yan Bugui looked at the water on the ground, then looked at Sha Zhu, "Okay, He Yuzhu, you dare not respect me, the master of the courtyard, are you going to rebel?"

"No, we have to hold a meeting right away to teach you a lesson." Yan Bugui said angrily in the living room.

At this time, Jia Zhang came in from outside.

"Mr. Yan, are you okay? You went to someone's house late at night and disturbed their sleep. I think you are the one who deserves a lesson."
