Siheyuan: After being robbed of her marriage, she married Zheng Juan backhandedly

1965, November,
Ji Chun, optical film.

It was freezing cold and snowing heavily. There was a thick layer of snow on the roads, walls, and houses, and the sound of broken branches sounded from time to time.

"That's how it is."

There were three people sitting in front of Cheng Zhiguo, an old woman with gray hair, a five or six year old boy with dull eyes, and a seventeen or eighteen year old girl.

Although the girl in the flower season has not yet bloomed, she is already beautiful, with exquisite facial features, big eyes, bright and agile.

She looked at Cheng Zhiguo quite boldly, but she still couldn't hide the shyness in her eyes.

Because Cheng Zhiguo came to propose marriage.

"This is all my savings, 530 yuan. If you are afraid that I am a liar, take the money first."

Cheng Zhiguo continued, "I work as a fitter in the Red Star Steel Rolling Plant in Sijiu City. I'm a fourth-grade worker. My monthly salary is 35 yuan and [-] cents. From now on, Zheng Juan will also take care of it."

The old woman had never seen so much money before, so she panicked for a while.

"We don't want to..."

The girl was about to speak, but was interrupted by Cheng Zhiguo:
"Don't rush to refuse. If your aunt agrees to this marriage, you will go to Forty-Nine City with me. You have to add an extra layer of insurance for yourself, don't you?"

The girl lowered her head and muttered softly, "We didn't agree..."

That being said, she didn't dislike Cheng Zhiguo, not because Cheng Zhiguo was rich, but because he was tall and handsome Zhou Zheng, and his conversation was extraordinary.

The old woman hesitated for a while, then asked suspiciously: "You are from Forty-Nine City, why did you travel so far to propose marriage here?"

"My mother used to be an optical filmmaker. A relative introduced Zheng Juan to her. My mother was very satisfied with her and said that she would let me meet if she had a chance. However, she died of a serious illness some time ago, so this matter was put on hold. Before my mother passed away, all I could think about was my marriage."

Cheng Zhiguo looked at the girl, "This can be regarded as fulfilling her last wish, but I also know Zheng Juan and her character, so I took the liberty to come to propose marriage."

"Auspicious spring and winter are long. My aunt is getting old and can't support her health here. Forty-nine cities have four distinct seasons. Aunt doesn't have to go out to sell candied haws anymore. You can just take care of yourself."

"I'm okay, I'm okay." The old woman said so, but she didn't want to let go.

After all, it is not so easy to leave the place where you have lived your whole life.

Moreover, marriage is a major event in a woman's life and cannot be fooled.

Cheng Zhiguo said again: "There are many famous doctors in Forty-Nine City. Going there, Guangming's eye disease can be treated better."

As soon as these words came out, not only the old woman, but even Zheng Juan was a little moved.

Guangming's eye disease has always been a pimple in their hearts. If there is a chance to cure it, even if they wrong themselves, it is nothing to them.

Cheng Zhiguo saw that it was almost done, so he got up and planned to leave.

This matter cannot be rushed.

"I'll come back tomorrow."

Zheng Juan called him quickly: "Qian..."

Cheng Zhiguo smiled and said, "Let's put it here first."

After speaking, he walked out of the house, wrapped his collar, and stepped into the heavy snow.

Half a month later, after getting a preliminary understanding of Cheng Zhiguo's character, Zheng's mother made up her mind to move her family to Sijiu City.

Simply bring some belongings, and the four of them got on the train to Kyoto.

……

Cheng Zhiguo is not from this era, but from 60 years later.

Ten years ago, he woke up from a dream and found himself in an unfamiliar environment, in an era that did not belong to him.

After getting acquainted with it later, I realized that I had entered the drama "Love in the Courtyard" and became a member of the courtyard house, surrounded by a group of "beasts".

He doesn't like the people in the courtyard house, and he doesn't like the other women in the play.

Those women may have advantages, but they all carry the flaw of selfishness.

But now that it's time to get married again, Cheng Zhiguo thinks of Zheng Juan in "The World".

Zheng Juan has the strength and kindness of women in the new era, as well as the filial piety and regard for her husband as the god of women in the old era. Such a woman may not make people rich and powerful, but she is enough to stay together for a lifetime and hold the same eyebrows.

Cheng Zhiguo has no ambition to "open up a new era" or "lead the wave". He just wants to live out this life in peace.

And it is undoubtedly the most suitable to be able to endure the hardships of turbulence and keep Zheng Juan who has been quiet for years.

So with the attitude of giving it a try, he asked for leave and came to Jichun.

I didn't expect him to find it. Although the age difference between the two is seven or eight years old, it's not a problem at all.

Two days later, the four arrived in Sijiu City, and Cheng Zhiguo took them back to the courtyard.

The elder Yi Zhonghai was putting things away in the yard, and he was very surprised to see Cheng Zhiguo dragging his family along: "Xiao Cheng, what are these?"

"family."

Cheng Zhiguo replied, without any intention of chatting, and continued walking to the backyard.

The fat-headed and big-eared Jia Zhang came out when he heard the movement, his face changed when he saw Cheng Zhiguo, and he snorted angrily.

Immediately, the yin and yang said strangely: "I said where did I go these days, so I went to fool around outside, and brought a whole family back, thinking that this is some place!"

Cheng Zhiguo glanced at her and didn't bother to answer her.

Jia Zhang glanced at Zheng Juan, saw that she was several grades more beautiful than the outstanding Qin Huairu, felt even more uncomfortable, and muttered:
"I don't know where it came from. It has the face of a vixen..."

Cheng Zhiguo frowned:
"Aren't you beautiful? Are you envious? It's a pity that your parents don't have such good genes to give birth to such a thing as you."

Jia Zhang was taken aback for a moment, then his face turned livid, and he screamed, "Cheng! You bastard! Who are you talking about!"

"Get out! Don't play tricks in front of me!"

Cheng Zhiguo scolded, anger welling up.

Jia Zhang was taken aback.

"Mom." Qin Huairu came out in a hurry, grabbed Jia Zhang, glanced at Cheng Zhiguo again, and said with a complicated expression, "Zhiguo is back."

When her eyes fell on Zheng Juan's face, she was obviously stunned.

She has always been confident in her appearance, no matter whether it is in the street or in the factory, she does not think that there are many women who can surpass her.

But after seeing Zheng Juan, she felt ashamed.

Cheng Zhiguo ignored him and continued walking with the three of them.

Zheng Juan and Zheng's mother looked at each other with surprise.

After getting along with Cheng Zhiguo for so many days, Cheng Zhiguo spoke and acted calmly, and it was the first time he saw him so angry.

It seems that this courtyard house is not as harmonious as they imagined.

But they are newcomers, and they don't know the real reason, so naturally they won't say much.

"Wow!"

Waiting for Cheng Zhiguo to enter the backyard, Jia Zhang sat down on the ground and cried loudly: "It's unreasonable, the old woman surnamed Cheng bullied me, if my son is not paralyzed, who would dare to bully me!"
