Siheyuan: Starting from the Pig Killer

"Are you getting married?"

Yan Bugui was a little surprised.

He had been thinking about introducing Xiang Yunduan to his wife, but when he heard the news, he felt a little disappointed.

This was the job he wanted to do, but he didn't expect Xiang Yunduan to solve it by himself?

At the beginning, he saw that Xiang Yunduan was too arrogant and deliberately made him angry. So out of revenge, he began to look for candidates everywhere and wanted to introduce them to Xiang Yunduan.

But now, he has actually given up the idea of ​​revenge on Xiang Yunduan. After all, with Xiang Yunduan's current situation, he can definitely raise ten children at one go, let alone three or five children.

The reason why I still want to introduce someone to Xiang Yunduan is mainly because I want to earn a matchmaker's money from Xiang Yunduan.

After all, Xiang Yunduan is very generous with his actions. If he really wants to be this matchmaker, the benefits will definitely be huge.

Recently, Yan Bugui feels more and more stressed. The situation outside is not very good. In the past, at the pigeon market, one cent could buy two and a half kilograms of mixed noodles, but now he can only buy two The weight has increased, and the prices of many food items have increased.

"How could it be possible? Third uncle must be happy when you get married. However, the teacher Wen Liwen whom third uncle introduced to you last time didn't succeed, so the third uncle always felt that he owed you something, so he kept thinking about it. Let me introduce another one to you, but it seems there is no chance now!" Yan Bugui sighed.

In order to find a job for Yan Jiecheng, I had to spend all my savings. Now I really don't have much money and I can't withstand the storm.

A girl suddenly appeared in Yan Bugui's mind. She had just been asked by the matchmaker to introduce her to his family.

So if you can earn a little bit, it’s a little bit.

Even if Xiang Yunlong is now an apprentice driver, he still has a lot of money. Besides, Xiang Yunlong is alone and doesn't have many places to spend money. He has been working for a year, so he probably has a lot of money in his hands.

Yan Bugui, who was always cautious and more able to settle accounts, decided almost instantly to introduce the person named Yu Li to Xiang Yunlong.

Moreover, once you get married, there will be one more person in the family, and you may even have to have children, which will cost you even more.

"Yes, it's my brother. Don't you know my brother? He's also in the slaughterhouse. He's an apprentice driver. Come to think of it, he's a serious colleague of yours!" Xiang Yunduan said.

"Why, I'm getting married. Third uncle, you don't seem happy?" Xiang Yunduan asked when he saw Yan Bugui's disappointed expression.

"Third uncle, you'd better call me terminal. It's not time to work. Don't call me the director. If people hear me, they'll think I'm addicted to officialdom!" Xiang Yunduan said with a smile.

Yan Bugui is somewhat knowledgeable. This situation makes him a little worried. The family's expenses have been reduced a lot recently.

"Introduce first, let's talk first. If you succeed in this matter, my brother will definitely benefit from you!" Xiang Yunduan said.

"Your brother, he is only nineteen years old this year, and he is getting married?" Yan Bugui was a little surprised.

However, in the current situation, it is better to postpone the matter of marriage. Marriage is also a big expense, and I really don't dare to spend this money now.

During this period, because he could not write good things, newspapers and magazines looked down upon him. He gradually gave up on being a writer and returned to his previous state, going fishing every weekend when he had time.

"That's right, considering you are such a generous person, Director Xiang, your brother is definitely not far behind!" Yan Bugui nodded seriously.

Of course Yan Bugui knew Xiang Yunlong, but he said that Xie Cheng was a colleague, but Xie Cheng was a loader, and Xiang Yunlong would be a driver in the future. He was one of the serious "eight members". Among workers, the driver's job was But it's very enviable.

"Ah? Your brother?" Yan Bugui didn't react for a moment.

Not to mention, there were more people fishing than before recently, so he had to go fishing outside the city.

"Haha, I thought you didn't want me to get married. What's the regret? If you feel you owe me, don't worry. It will be the same if you introduce someone to my brother!" Xiang Yunduan said with a smile.

It's just that it's a little unethical to do this. After all, what he's doing is equivalent to stealing business from the matchmaker.

Ever since his younger brother Yunlong moved to Beiluoguxiang, he has matured a lot in the past year.

Because of work, the two brothers don't actually meet often, but every time they meet, he can feel his brother's growth.

What makes him feel more guilty as an elder brother is that perhaps because of the previous incident between his younger brother and Qin Huairu, he handled it a bit roughly, which may have left a shadow in his younger brother's heart. This boy is now focused on work. Usually, I don’t even know how to fall in love.

In this era, people get married relatively early. Although the Marriage Law promulgated in the 1950s stipulates that men must be over 20 and women must be over 18, in practice, many people do not comply with the regulations. It is nothing more than having a banquet first. , just wait until they reach the age to get the certificate, and many people even don’t even get the certificate at all.

Xiang Yunduan was about to get married soon, so he naturally thought of his younger brother. Yan Bugui happened to talk about it at this moment, so he mentioned it more.

The past is over, what unresolved issues can the two brothers have? Is it possible that we will never have any contact with each other for the rest of our lives?

"Okay, I will definitely take this matter to heart and will definitely choose a good wife for your brother!" Yan Bugui nodded and said.

"Hey, Teacher Yan, and Director Xiang, you are all here. That's just in time. There is a new person in your yard. Now that everyone is off work and everyone is relatively crowded, let's hold a hospital-wide meeting. I will be the new neighbor. Let me introduce it to you!”

After Xiang Yunduan and Yan Bugui finished talking, they were about to go into the house to rest. Unexpectedly, two more people came in through the door. One was about thirty years old, and it was Director Liu from the street office. When Xiang Yunduan entered the courtyard for the first time, it was Liu. The director leads the way.

As for the other person, he is much older, his hair is a bit gray, and he has a long horse face, which is impressive.

"Director Xiang, come and smoke!"

As Officer Liu said this, he quickly took two steps forward, first took out a pack of qianmen from his right pocket, then quickly realized and put it back again, and then took out a pack of crab apples from his left pocket. He took out one and handed it to Xiang Yunduan.

Next to him, Yan Bugui watched eagerly. He originally thought that Director Liu would give him one, but he didn't expect that Director Liu would put the cigarette back after giving it to Xiang Yunduan.

Xiang Yunduan took the cigarette and took a look at it. It was a coincidence that when he first entered the courtyard, the cigarettes he gave to Mr. Liu were Haitang, which cost 86 cents a pack.

Rejecting Officer Liu's diligent ignition, he basically didn't smoke, and casually gave the cigarette to Yan Bugui: "Third uncle, please inform other neighbors to welcome new comrades to move in!"

Yan Bugui happily took the cigarette, clamped it to his ear, and then stood in the middle of the yard and shouted loudly: "Jie Cheng, Jiefang, Jie Kuang, and Jie Di, all come out and go to the middle courtyard and backyard to inform the others. Come and hold a hospital-wide meeting!”

I don’t know when it started, but the location where the whole hospital meeting was held changed from the middle courtyard to the front yard.
