Movie: Get Alpha Dog at the start

Chapter 1157 It’s done
"Jia Wen, why are you coming to our house?"

Qin Hao gave He Jiawen a look as he put on a full show.

He Jiawen came to his senses: "Oh, that's it. My mom's due date is coming up soon. I was thinking of asking if you are free tomorrow to help take her to the health care center."

"tomorrow……"

Qin Hao pretended to be embarrassed. Zhang Jianguo, who was standing beside him, immediately said, "I'm free tomorrow. How about I come and help tomorrow? It just so happens that our armed forces department also has a car."

He Jiawen saw that his goal had been achieved and was about to say something polite, but He Jiali frowned and said, "Isn't this too much trouble?"

Before Zhang Jianguo could speak, Qin Hao said, "What's the problem? The army and the people are like fish and water. When ordinary people are in trouble, how can Brother Zhang, as a soldier, just sit there and watch?"

"That's right. The people are in trouble, and we soldiers have no choice but to do our duty. What time will you leave tomorrow?"

He Jiali thought that in this cold winter, lying on a cart would definitely not be as comfortable as lying in a jeep: "Then... I'll trouble you."

"It's no trouble, it's all as it should be."

When the two looked at each other, He Jiali always felt that something was not quite right, so she went back under the pretext of going home to cook.

He Jiawen originally didn't intend to let He Jiali go, but was stopped by Qin Hao's eyes. Too much is as bad as too little. This was only the second time they met, and this was the 1970s. Flash marriages were not popular. There was a long time to go, so let them get to know each other slowly and it would be better to be natural.

Seeing that He Jiali and her sister had left, Zhang Jianguo was about to say goodbye, but was stopped by Qin Hao.

"Brother Zhang, it's time for lunch. Why don't you have lunch at our house before leaving?"

Zhou Guilan also stopped Zhang Jianguo: "Yes, we have to eat some simple food."

It was hard to refuse such a kind invitation, and Zhang Jianguo also wanted to find out more about He Jiali's situation, so he stayed.

"Auntie, just do a little bit, otherwise I won't dare to come here again in the future."

Seeing Zhou Guilan walk into the kitchen, Zhang Jianguo gave her some worried instructions.

"Don't worry, you can eat whatever we usually eat."

While Zhou Guilan was cooking, Zhang Jianguo finally couldn't help but ask Qin Hao.

"Comrade Xiao Qin, do the two girls who just came live next door?"

Qin Hao pretended to be honest and said, "Yes, the older one is the eldest daughter of the He family, and the one who is about my age is the second daughter."

"Who else is in their family?"

"There is also a grandmother, a father, and three younger sisters, not counting the one that Aunt Liu is pregnant with."

Zhang Jianguo's eyes widened: "They have so many daughters?"

"That's right. Uncle He wanted to have a son, but he ended up having five daughters. If it's another daughter this time, I guess Uncle He will give up completely."

Zhang Jianguo: "It doesn't matter whether you have a boy or a girl. The teacher always said: Women hold up half the sky..."

"Brother Zhang, that's just your idea. For most families, they still hope to have a boy to start the family. Uncle He and Aunt Liu are under a lot of pressure after having five daughters in a row." Qin Hao retorted.

Zhang Jianguo shook his head and smiled bitterly: "That's right. After all, I can't impose my views on others."

"Then...Comrade He Jiali must have been under a lot of pressure, right?"

Qin Hao sighed: "Yes, Sister Jiali started to grow her hair short when she was very young, just to prove to others that girls are not necessarily worse than boys."

"Comrade He Jiali has had a very difficult life."

Looking at Zhang Jianguo's empathetic expression, Qin Hao knew that he had already fallen, and couldn't help but smile to himself.

"Brother-in-law, we are destined to be brothers-in-law in this life."

Of course, with him around, Zhang Jianguo will definitely not be allowed to repeat the same mistakes, and the evil tendencies in the He family should be stopped by him.

As they were talking, the gate was pushed open and Qin Hongqi walked in carrying large and small bags.

"Dad, are you back from your business trip with Uncle He?"

Qin Hongqi smiled and nodded: "Who is this?"

"This is Brother Zhang from the conscription office of the armed forces department. I wanted to join the army, but I wasn't old enough. Luckily I met Brother Zhang, so my trip wasn't in vain." Qin Hao took the lead in taking over the conversation to avoid being exposed.

"Oh, you are from the People's Liberation Army. Hello."

"Hello, I'm sorry to bother you today."

"Don't bother me. I'm so happy you're here. Let's have a few drinks later."

Not long after, the food and wine were served. Zhang Jianguo saw that there was not only braised fish but also egg soup on the table. He couldn't help but smile bitterly: "Auntie Zhou, didn't we agree that I would eat whatever you usually eat..."

Zhou Guilan said with a smile: "Xiao Zhang, we eat this every now and then at home."

"This fish was caught by Haozi two days ago. The eggs were laid by our hens. They were free of charge."

Qin Hongqi also took out his treasured sunflower Moutai. Moutai from the 1960s was not too expensive, three yuan a bottle, but it required a wine ticket, which was not included in the quota and needed extra money to buy. People usually bought it as gifts, and at most they would drink a few sips during the Chinese New Year.

Zhang Jianguo tried to stop Qin Hongqi several times but failed to stop him from opening the bottle cap of Moutai, so he could only pick up the wine glass.

"Uncle, I'm really sorry for making you spend so much money today. I won't say anything more. It's all in the wine. I'll drink it first."

Seeing Zhang Jianguo so happy, Qin Hongqi slapped his thigh happily and said, "That's right, this is the demeanor a soldier should have."

"Uncle is going to tell you something from the bottom of my heart. We have two working parents and we only have one son. Our life is not that great, but it is better than most families. So just eat and drink well, okay."

As he said that, Qin Hongqi also drank it all in one gulp.

The two of them toasted each other and soon became familiar with each other.

"Uncle Qin, is your family familiar with the He family next door?" Zhang Jianguo asked, a little tipsy, shaking his head.

Qin Hongqi was also a little drunk. He patted his chest and answered, "That's not ordinary acquaintance. Let me tell you, when Chang Sheng and I were..."

Seeing that Qin Hongqi had been talking about something before he came to Tianjia'an, Zhou Guilan cleared her throat and said, "Boss, you are getting off topic. Comrade Xiao Zhang has taken a fancy to the eldest daughter of the He family next door, and wants you to help him make a connection."

Zhang Jianguo felt a little embarrassed when his secrets were exposed, and his already red face turned bright red.

Qin Hongqi immediately made the decision when he heard it: "Hey, that's it, don't worry, leave it to uncle, and I will tell Chang Sheng later that he can't find a son-in-law as good as you. It's just that we don't have a daughter, otherwise I would want to recruit you as my son-in-law."

Qin Hao held his forehead with his hand, thinking that his father was really drunk.

The meal was a great success for both the host and the guests. Zhang Jianguo was young after all, and after a while of relaxation after the meal, he was almost sober. Qin Hao then sent him to the alley entrance.

"Brother Zhang, remember to drive over tomorrow."

"Okay, don't worry, I know the way."

Zhang Jianguo disappeared into the crowd with somewhat erratic steps.

Early the next morning, the He family was still packing up when Zhang Jianguo drove over.

He Changsheng had never met Zhang Jianguo, but he had heard from He Jiawen that from the moment Zhang Jianguo got out of the car, He Changsheng's face was full of smiles.

"Oh, Comrade Xiao Zhang, I'm really sorry. My two daughters didn't know that I came back from a business trip yesterday. I'm sorry to have caused you trouble."

Zhang Jianguo quickly said, "It's not a big deal, it's just a side job."

Liu Meixin was also looking at Zhang Jianguo. Seeing that he was handsome, strong, and a soldier, she was very satisfied.

"Come inside and have a drink of water."

"Okay, sorry to bother you guys."

"Hey, what's the trouble with a cup of tea? Xiao Zhang and I feel like we get along great, so let's not be so polite."

Zhang Jianguo subconsciously glanced at He Jiali and agreed repeatedly: "Okay, then I won't be polite, uncle."

"Oh, that's right, let's go inside and warm up."

He Changsheng specifically asked He Jiali to make tea, and He Jiali had no choice but to make the tea with a slightly blushing face and bring it to Zhang Jianguo.

"Thank you."

"You're welcome."

Although the conversation was only three words, Zhang Jianguo could still feel his heart beating faster, which made him even more certain that he had fallen in love with this girl.

He Jiawen hid in the next room, observing his "masterpiece", and felt a sense of accomplishment.

The third brother He Jiayi and the fourth brother He Jiahuan were evaluating Zhang Jianguo.

"This Zhang Jianguo is much better than those ugly guys that my elder sister dated before."

"No, he's tall and handsome, and most importantly, he's a military officer."

"I've decided that I will also look for a husband based on this standard in the future," He Jiayi said seriously.

He Jiahuan stuck out his tongue at her: "Don't be ashamed. Even if the eldest sister becomes the second sister, it's not your turn yet."

"My second sister already has Brother Hao, so it will be my turn soon."

Before He Jiayi could finish his words, he felt a murderous aura coming from behind him.

"Old Three, say what you just said again!"

"Ah, elder sister, help me, the second sister is going to kill someone."

In the main room, He Changsheng heard the noise coming from the inner room and shouted in dissatisfaction, "Why are you yelling? You're causing me a lot of trouble every day."

After that, he apologized to Zhang Jianguo: "I'm sorry, there are many girls in the family, so it's noisy."

"No, no, actually I really like this kind of atmosphere. Uncle He, I'm not going to hide it from you. I'm an orphan and grew up in a military compound..."

When Liu Meixin heard this, she became even more satisfied with Zhang Jianguo. Not only did he have a good family background and a bright future, but he also didn't have parents yet. When her daughter got married, she would be the head of the family, and there wouldn't be any complicated relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law. If they hadn't met for the first time today, she would have wanted to make the decision to choose him as her son-in-law.

However, perhaps because she was too excited or the attack was about to happen, Liu Meixin suddenly felt a stomachache.

Zhang Jianguo and He Changsheng didn't have time to chat anymore. They quickly carried Liu Meixin to the car and drove all the way to the health center.

Three days later, He Changsheng and Liu Meixin came back. From their expressions, it could be seen that they did not get the baby they wished for this time.

That afternoon, He Jiawen ran to Qin Hao's house and cried.

"This world is so unfair. A bad person like Da Lao Tang gave birth to three sons in a row..."

Qin Hao could only change the subject: "How are Zhang Jianguo and your elder sister doing?"

Speaking of gossip, He Jiawen wiped away tears.

"Zhang Jianguo has been busy these three days. My parents are very satisfied with him and have also talked to my eldest sister."

"It's just that my eldest sister doesn't seem to want to get married, and my parents scolded her for it."

Qin Hao thought for a moment and said, "Wait for me."

Two minutes later, Qin Hao came out of the inner room and handed He Jiawen two movie tickets for "Heroic Sons and Daughters". There was no other way because there were no movies suitable for young men and women to talk about love in the early 1970s, so this one was the only one that could be accepted.

"Give it to your elder sister later and ask her to invite someone to watch a movie."

He Jiawen's eyes lit up: "This is good, tickets are hard to get, right?"

"It's hard to do, but we have to do it." Qin Hao added in his mind: "If such a good brother-in-law runs away, there will be no place to find him."

He Jiawen took the movie tickets home. He Changsheng and Liu Meixin looked at each other and called He Jiali over.

"Invite Xiao Zhang to watch a movie tomorrow. He's been busy these days, so you should thank him."

Seeing that his eldest daughter was still hesitant, He Changsheng said with a straight face: "Xiao Zhang is a good person with good conditions. How can he not be worthy of you?"

"Dad, Mom, I don't want to get married. I still have to provide for you in your old age."

He Changsheng couldn't help but be moved after hearing this, but he still said firmly: "You don't need to worry about the elderly care. Your mother and I both have jobs. You are the eldest in our family, and your younger sisters are growing up day by day. If you don't get married, your younger sisters can't stay married, right?"

He Jiali remained silent, lowering her head and rubbing the corner of her clothes.

"Okay, you're an adult already, and you're still throwing tantrums like a child. You don't have to worry about things at home. Just live your own life and don't let us worry about you." He Changsheng patted his eldest daughter's shoulder.

He Jiali had no choice but to ask Zhang Jianguo to go to the movies.

Perhaps because of the happy event of Ho Ka-lai, Ho Sheung-sheng and Liu Mei-xin did not have a cold war for too long this time because of the birth of another daughter.

After He Jiali was sent back by Zhang Jianguo, He Changsheng couldn't wait to ask.

"how's it going?"

He Jiali blushed and said, "He said that from now on, the He family's affairs will be his affairs..."

"Then what are you waiting for? Invite him to your house tomorrow and we'll officially put this matter on the agenda."

"Dad, there's no need to be so anxious, right?"

"My silly girl, you are already so old. If you don't get married, you will become an old maid. It's nice to be called by others. Jianguo is a good man, so don't be picky."

This time He Jiali did not object.

If we talk about the person in the He family who is happiest about the marriage of He Jiali and Zhang Jianguo, it would be He Jiawen. After all, it was she and Qin Hao who brought them together, and she is filled with a sense of accomplishment.

In March 1972, Zhang Jianguo and He Jiali held their wedding. He Changsheng was proud of having such a good son-in-law in front of his neighbors and colleagues. He drank more than anyone else that day and was almost sent to the hospital.

"It seems that having a daughter is not necessarily inferior to having a son. Look, the eldest daughter of the He family married an officer, and the second daughter of the He family and the eldest son of the Qin family have been childhood sweethearts. The future of these two sons-in-law is limitless."

"Now that you put it that way, it's true. Although there is no son to take over the family, there will always be one of the six sons-in-law who can take care of them. Changsheng and Meixin should not have to worry about their retirement in the future."

"A son-in-law is still a son-in-law after all, and it's still not as solid as a son."
