Siheyuan: The Rebirth of the Silly Pillar in the 50s

"My son is right!"

Yang Ruihua interjected from the side: "Now that my son has grown up, it's time for him to find a wife. Men have to get married and start a career."

"What do you know?"

Yan Bugui glared at her fiercely.

He also wanted to find a partner for his son to marry and have children.

This is the vision of every father.

Become a father and then a grandfather.

A man's life is considered complete.

but……

Yan Bugui thought that Yan Jiecheng had just worked for a year and must not have saved much money.

If you are looking for a girl from the capital city, you will definitely need a betrothal gift if you are a native girl.

There's no way they wouldn't give it.

But if it’s given, wouldn’t Yan Jiecheng have to pay for it himself if he doesn’t have the money?

Yan Bugui felt angry when he thought of this.

Times have really changed.

At that time, there was a war and chaos, and you could find wives who didn't need money on the street.

But now there is peace.

The woman was clamoring for a bride price.

I don’t know if it’s to live with the man or to live with the bride price.

He despised this trend.

He felt that getting married should be like him, picking up a free man on the street, and the two of them were making do anyway.

Wouldn't it be more beautiful to live with someone who doesn't need money?

"Why are you hurting me?"

The "no money" Yang Ruihua was a little unhappy.

She pouted and said, "Seeing how old Yan Jie is, Mao is almost thirty years old. It's time for him to get married!"

"How do you do the math?"

Yan Bugui said fiercely: "Yan Jiecheng is only in his early twenties, and you are only a few years old."

"After all, you still don't want to find it for me!"

Yan Jiecheng was not happy either.

How long has he been thinking about his wife?

Every time he passed by He Yuzhu's house and saw him and Lou Xiao'e being sweet, he felt itchy in his heart.

The thought of his wife made him feel weak.

When he grows up, it’s really hard not to have a wife!

"Who said I won't find it for you?"

Yan Bugui coaxed his son and said, "I've been looking for you since the day you told me. I just didn't pick the right one."

"It's not up to me to decide whether it's suitable or not?"

Yan Jiecheng asked back.

"My parents ordered me to tell the matchmaker. Why do you just have the final say?"

"You have an arranged marriage!"

Yan Jiecheng shouted.

"Whose marriage is not arranged?"

Yan Bugui retorted: "If you can find it yourself, why don't you use me to find it for you?"

"If you were really looking for me, you would have brought the girl to see me long ago."

Yan Jiecheng said not to be outdone.

"Look, look, look!"

Yan Bugui pointed at Yan Jiecheng and said angrily: "Who gave birth to this? One sentence is worth ten, and he asked me to find a wife for him! This kind of son will have to forget his parents when he marries a wife!"

Yan Jiecheng saw that Yan Bugui was really anxious.

He quickly put it up again and said in a soft tone: "Dad, I want to get married and I want you to have a grandchild as soon as possible? You have the most children in our compound. But think about it, He Daqingguang only has two sons. .If he adds another grandson, wouldn’t you fall behind?”

Yan Bugui nodded.

He felt that what Yan Jiecheng said was reasonable.

His unwillingness to stand behind others convinced him.

"I will look for you after the New Year. In fact, there are no other difficulties. The main issue is the bride price."

Yan Bugui finally told the truth.

"Lao Yan, you won't even be willing to give the bride price, right?"

Yang Ruihua's eyes widened.

She knew her husband too well.

He can really do this kind of thing.

"Now the betrothal gifts outside are getting more and more outrageous!"

Yan Bugui said in a loud voice: "I have asked about it. For a local girl in the capital, the bride price is [-] yuan! For example, the bride price for a girl from the countryside is [-] yuan! Our family won't go bankrupt if we get a daughter-in-law, right? ?”

"Then you still want to be a free hand?"

Yang Ruihua has been married for so long that she has even forgotten that she was acquired by a white wolf with empty gloves.

"If you can, that would be the best."

Yan Bugui smiled meaningfully.

"Cut you to death!"

When Yan Jiecheng heard Yan Bugui's outrageous remarks, he pushed his stool angrily and ran away.

Yan Bugui was so angry that he pointed at his back and complained to Yang Ruihua: "Look at the good son you gave birth to, you are scolding me for the Chinese New Year!"

"Not your seed yet?"

Yang Ruihua retorted: "It's as if you didn't give birth to her!"

Yan Jiecheng left the hustle and bustle at home and went to the compound to get even more excited.

Which of the neighbors standing in the compound is not harmonious and beautiful?

The man who was a few years older than him was holding his child and his wife.

It was an enviable life.

He had been looking forward to this day for too long.

So much so that I feel jealous when I see other people’s happiness.

The more he looked, the more depressed he became, so he simply lowered his head and didn't look at the road at all.

"Ouch!"

Sure enough, if you don't look at the road, you will hit someone.

Yan Jiecheng looked up and saw Xu Damao.

Xu Damao rubbed his head and complained: "Yan Jiecheng, you should be more careful! Why are you bumping into people!"

"Sorry……"

Yan Jiecheng looked up and was stunned.

God!

He opened his mouth in surprise and looked at the well-dressed Yu Li next to Xu Damao.

He has never seen a woman who suits his eyes so well.

When he first saw Yu Li, he felt that this was the woman tailor-made for him by God.

He even imagined them living together in his mind.

I even thought about the names of their two children.

"Hey! What are you looking at?"

Xu Damao stretched out his hand and shook it in front of Yan Jiecheng's eyes, pulling him out of reality.

Yan Jiecheng stuttered nervously, pointed at Yu Li and asked: "This is..."

"Looking stupid?"

Xu Damao said in a show-off manner: "This is the target of my buddy. You have never seen such a beautiful woman, right? They all followed me home for the Chinese New Year. You have no chance to sing!"

"Hate!"

Yu Li reached out and hit Xu Damao.

She knew he was joking so she wasn't angry.

She was so generous that she even extended her hand and said hello to Yan Jiecheng.

"Hello, my name is Yu Li."

Yan Jiecheng saw her stretched out tender hands and nervously rubbed his hands on his pants, fearing that the sweat from his hands might contaminate her.

When he reached out again, Yu Li had already withdrawn his hand.

He only touched the tip of his little finger.

Just this little fingertip is enough to haunt him.

"Let's go, keep an eye on the aisle! If you bump into the old lady, you'll have to ride in her for the rest of your life!"

Xu Damao led Yu Li to turn around gracefully.

Yan Jiecheng stood in the snow and watched them for a long time.

After he came to his senses, he made a bold decision.

He entered the house in despair and told Yan Bugui in a announcing tone: "I want to marry Yu Li."
