Siheyuan: My Northeastern Farmhouse

I have to say that in the entire courtyard, the first man is the most skilled one, but it is a pity that his mind is not on the right track.

After watching the excitement, Gu Weijun strolled to Aunt Wang's house.

Sister Zhou joked when they met, "Hey, Dajun, it's different now that you're going to be the leader! You can drink it at noon!"

Gu Weijun replied seriously, "The crowd's voice is so enthusiastic and the invitation is so sincere, how can I refuse? Besides, the chairman has said that we must go deep into the masses!"

Sister Zhou was so amused that she giggled with joy. At this moment, Gu Ma poked her head out of the kitchen and shouted: "Why did you wait until now for the ink to come! Come to the kitchen to help!"

"Hey, here we come!"

Gu Weijun ran into the kitchen, took the apron handed over by Gu's mother, and transformed into Chef Gu.

Sweet and sour carp, onion and ginger crab, braised prawns, pork and tofu Sixi meatballs, pork liver tips, pepper sausage, egg and melon slices, tomatoes and cabbage, and a shredded sea rice and radish soup. Eight dishes and one soup, live together!

Plus four cold dishes prepared by Gu Ma and Aunt Wang, soy sauce, minced garlic fungus, braised pig ear, and braised pork head. This table is called a feast!

Everyone sat down. Dad Gu raised his glass and looked at Father Zhou who was in charge, and said, "Brother-in-law, can you say a few words first?"

Father Zhou raised his wine glass with a smile, "This year is a happy year. Xiaowei was admitted to the Military Medical University, Dajun also joined the work and achieved good results, and now he has also entered school! Okay, that's great!" Let’s drink to the kids!”

Everyone at the table drank a drink happily.

"Secondly, I want to mention something about Dajun. Today's big table is too rich. Thank you for your hard work, Dajun! But, Dajun, my uncle found that you pay too much attention to the desire of the tongue. The eggs, fish, and chickens that you usually bring, It takes a lot of effort, right? It’s not a gentleman to pay too much attention to the desire of words! You should pay attention to it in the future! Especially when you step into a leadership position in the future!"

"Oh, on this big day, you still preach to the child," Aunt Wang quickly answered, "The child didn't steal or rob!"

Dad Gu stopped Aunt Wang: "Sister, we are a family, that's why my brother-in-law said that! And it just happened to talk about Dajun's weakness!" "Dajun, did you hear what your uncle said? You should pay special attention to this in the future!"

"I know, Dad, Uncle!" Gu Weijun quickly agreed obediently.

Father Zhou smiled and raised his glass again: "Then let's drink to the prosperity of our motherland and to this sumptuous table of dishes!"

Everyone at the table laughed and toasted again.

Zhou's father continued: "Thirdly, I want to thank Guohong for looking for people to find medicine for my health. My health has improved significantly this year, especially after taking the new medicine prescribed during the National Day."

Dad Gu responded quickly: "Brother-in-law, we are all a family, this is what I should do!"

Father Zhou raised his glass three times: "Cheers to the health of all of us!"

Everyone at the table happily drank another drink.

After three drinks, the banquet officially started. Father Zhou and Father Gu talked about the changes in the capital and the past in the Northeast; Mother Gu, Aunt Wang and Sister Zhou chatted about home life, school, and complained to Gu Weijun, "All day long. I miss the king of my daughter's country!" Gu Weijun felt like he was being shot while lying down. Didn't I mention it twice?

Gu Weijun had no choice but to respond seriously: "You women, you just don't understand that now is the period when my career is on the rise!" "How can I consider the love between my children?"

The three girls laughed together.

The dinner table was full of laughter and laughter! From point to point, Beijing and the whole of China are filled with this joy at this moment!

After the meal, the two families drank tea and chatted together to eat. It was around 9 o'clock in the evening when Gu Weijun's family returned to the courtyard.

As soon as she got home, Gu Ma quickly chopped the stuffing, kneaded the noodles, and prepared to make dumplings, regardless of how much she would eat in the evening. This dumpling meal on New Year’s Eve must be a must!

With the efforts of the whole family, the dumplings were quickly wrapped and many were placed outside to freeze!

After 11 o'clock in the evening, Gu Weijun and his younger brother set off firecrackers in the backyard, went back to the house and ate a bowl of dumplings, and then the family got on the kang to rest and go to bed!

On the morning of the first day of the Lunar New Year, they had eaten dumplings early. Gu Weijun's family was dressed neatly. Gu's father and mother were sitting on the chairs under the statue of Chairman Mao in the main room. Gu Weijun and his younger brother kowtowed to greet the New Year, "Dad, Mom, happy New Year!"

Gu's father and Gu's mother responded, "Okay!" and then gave each of the two brothers a red envelope. The money was not much, just one dollar each. Gu’s parents and Gu’s mother will wait at home for relatives and friends who come to visit them for New Year greetings, and then go out to visit them in the afternoon.

Gu Weijun set off with his younger brother. He first went to the elder's house in the courtyard to pay New Year greetings, and then set off to visit Aunt Wang and other relatives and friends' home to pay New Year greetings.

After Aunt Wang's house, we went to Secretary Huang's house, the concierge Uncle Qin, Zhao Chenggang's house, Yang Yu's house, and the grain station director Ma's house. Gu Weijun is planning to continue carrying seeds next year. The two brothers received red envelopes along the way, containing a bag full of candies and melon seeds.

When they returned home at noon, they sent their younger brother home first. Xiaoyu and Tiezi were sitting leisurely in the bedroom of Gu Weijun's house, eating melon seeds and eating peanuts. In the main room, Dad Gu was chatting with his visiting colleagues. Although they were not familiar with each other, they were also calling for New Year greetings from brothers and sisters!

On the afternoon of the first day of the Lunar New Year, Father Zhao took Gu Weijun, Ren Jun, and Tie Zi for a walk, mainly to pay New Year greetings to Father Zhao’s comrades and colleagues, including those from the police and the army. Director Zhao Yangxian of the Municipal Bureau also went there. There were too many people, so I planned to just click and leave. As a result, Zhao Yangxian ran out specifically to ask Dad Zhao to stay for a drink, and Gu Weijun followed him to have a good time. To be honest, it was not as rich as what Gu Weijun cooked at Aunt Wang's house on New Year's Eve!

After drinking this time, I had planned to go to the two section chiefs' and Bai Ling's homes to pay New Year's greetings, so I had to stop eating completely! why?

Because, on the second day of the new year, Wei Pingan got married!

The heroine is a distant cousin of Bai Ling's family. She is pretty and pretty. She just graduated from high school last year and works as a clerk in the district public security bureau!

Early in the morning on the second day of the Lunar New Year, Wei Ping'an, who wore a red flower on his chest, took Gu Weijun, who was wearing a brand new uniform, and several other relatives, riding a bicycle, riding the wind, to pick up his new daughter-in-law at the woman's house!

Along the way, Gu Weijun kept joking, "Old cows eat young grass!" "A pear tree weighs down a begonia!"

Marriage in this era was simple and enthusiastic. When Wei Ping'an arrived at the woman's door, those who had not yet entered shouted: "Mom, Dad, I'm here to take Juanzi home!"

The bride, Juanzi, was wearing a Chinese tunic suit with a red flower on her chest. She walked out so openly and generously, and the parents behind her were also smiling! The woman's relatives quickly tied various dowries: various quilts, dressing tables, boxes, and a sewing machine to the back seat of the bicycle.

After a quick trip back to the main courtyard of the Wei family, the two newlyweds held their marriage certificates and under the auspices of Bai Ling, bowed to the statue of Chairman Mao and then to their parents. The couple bowed to each other and the ceremony was completed!

Next came the much-loved bridal chamber, a group of young men eating peanuts and melon seeds and making noise at the same time. Two section chiefs also stood at the door, watching the fun with a smile. This Gu Weijun is the best at, "eating apples to red dates at each other's mouth, eating noodles at each other's mouth, hanging dates on the bride's chest, and hanging peanuts on the groom's waist" and then he was beaten out by the bride!

Lunch was also very sumptuous, with two tables open, and the invited chef Hong An flipped the spoon up and down, braised pork, pork slices, three kinds of pork, and braised fish, and also used all kinds of tricks. Gu Weijun continued to make noise at the wine table and asked Wei Ping'an to change the wine. As a result, the bride's domineering guard made her drink three glasses of wine without changing her expression!
