Siheyuan: I found a wife right after I crossed over

When Liu Haizhong asked the question, his eyes were looking at the cook, who was cutting vegetables. In front of him were a few cabbages, a few large radishes, and some potato vermicelli.

Yan Bugui smiled, put his mouth close to Liu Haizhong's ear and said, "Old Liu, of course there is meat. I have already told Chongzi that he wants two pounds of pork and two pheasants. But the meat cannot be taken out today. What if someone steals it? I have to wait until tomorrow morning to take it out and let the chef cook it."

Liu Haizhong curled his lips and said, "Well, Old Yan, you are the most thoughtful. But you don't have many cabbages and radishes. How many tables of food have you prepared?"

That's right, with just those few cabbages and radishes, even if there's some meat left, it's not enough to make several tables of dishes.

Yan Bugui smiled and handed Liu Haizhong another cigarette, whispering, "We didn't prepare many tables, three."

"Three tables?" Liu Haizhong's eyes widened. "Old Yan, you are too stingy, aren't you? These three tables may not even be enough for Yu Li's family? Are you really not going to let anyone from our courtyard sit down?"

Yan Bugui said quickly, "No way, Lao Liu, there will definitely be seats for you and Yang Chong. I've calculated that there will be more than a dozen people from Yu Li's family, and there won't be many relatives from my side. If you add in Jie Cheng's colleagues, the three tables will definitely not be full, and seats will definitely be reserved for you and Yang Chong."

Then he lowered his voice and said, "You know, people in the courtyard can't afford gifts worth a few cents. If the whole family comes to eat, the gifts I receive won't be enough to compensate. But no one can sit here without you, Lao Liu. You are the eldest uncle in the courtyard. This wedding depends on you to be in charge."

Liu Haizhong was very pleased to hear the word "uncle". He nodded with satisfaction and said, "Don't worry. Tomorrow is Sunday. I won't be at work. I will definitely help you." Then he reminded him worriedly, "What about the people helping you in the hospital? You can't let them carry the dishes for you and then go home to eat, right?"

Yan Bugui said proudly: "I have already planned it out. I will not accept gifts from the people in the courtyard, nor will I ask them for help. When the time comes, Jiefang and Jiekuang will be the only ones to serve dishes."

Liu Haizhong curled his lips again: "It's you, Old Yan, who has planned everything carefully."

The next morning, Yan Bugui got up early. The couple took a broom and swept the front yard and the gate clean, and sprinkled a lot of water.

Yan Jiecheng also got up early, washed his face several times, combed his hair until it was shiny, and applied several layers of face cream on his face. He also ran to Yang Chong's door several times to urge him: "Chongzi, is it time yet? Should we leave?"

At around nine o'clock, the agreed departure time finally arrived. Yang Chong drove the car and took the groom Yan Jiecheng out. Before leaving, Yan Bugui and the third aunt repeatedly told Yan Jiecheng to bring Yu Li back as soon as possible and not to miss the auspicious time.

I arrived at Yu's door on time. The door was already crowded with neighbors who came to watch the fun.

Everyone wanted to see what kind of remarkable man the groom was, and they were all saying that the eldest daughter of the Yu family was very lucky to marry a son-in-law who was an official. They actually used a car to pick up the bride, which was the first time in this alley.

Yan Jiecheng jumped out of the car and listened to the discussions of the people around him, his face flushed. He felt particularly happy when he saw Yu Li, who was wearing a red dress and blushing, looking more charming than ever.

Amid the envious gazes of everyone, Yan Jiecheng took Yu Li's hand and got into the car. Yang Chong also started the car and drove the newlyweds back to the courtyard.

Yan Jiecheng was so happy that he looked at Yu Li from time to time, thinking that he would finally get the beauty. He couldn't help but secretly reach out to touch Yu Li's white and tender little hand, but as soon as he touched a finger, Yu Li pulled her hand back as if she had received an electric shock, and glared at him.

"You're going to be mine soon, yet you're still shy." Yan Jiecheng naturally thought that Yu Li was shy. After all, besides the two of them, there was also Yang Chong sitting in the front driving the car.

Logically, as the bridesmaid, Yu Haitang should have sat next to Yu Li, but no one knew what Yu Li was thinking. She did not let Yu Haitang get on the car with her, but let her and other family members of the bride ride on a cart.

Girls are all shy, but once they get back to the courtyard and have the ceremony and enter the bridal chamber, they won't have anything to be shy about. Yan Jiecheng thought happily, turning his head to look behind him, and found that the wedding procession behind him had been left behind and could not be seen.

After all, it is a car with four wheels. How could those bicycles and carts possibly keep up with it?

Yan Jiecheng thought about it and touched the seat below. This car is so comfortable to sit in. It's a pity that he can only enjoy it today. Unlike Yang Chong, he has to go back and forth in the car every day.

Yan Jiecheng was thinking about this with regret and envy, when Yu Li beside him suddenly said, "Chongzi, stop the car."

The two men in the car were stunned. Yang Chong turned his head and looked in surprise, thinking that they had not yet reached their destination and were still several miles away from the courtyard. Why did they stop the car here?

Yan Jiecheng also asked in confusion: "What's wrong? Yu Li, we haven't reached the place yet, what's the matter? Are you in a hurry to go to the toilet? We're almost there, let's go there..."

Yu Li glanced at him and said, "No, you ask Chongzi to stop the car first."

Yan Jiecheng had no choice but to say to Yang Chong, "Chongzi, stop the car for a moment. Yu Li might have something to do." To him, Yu Li's words were like an imperial decree. He had never objected, and today on their wedding day would be no exception.

Yang Chong stepped on the brakes and stopped the car.

Yu Li looked at Yan Jiecheng and said, "Yan Jiecheng, I suddenly remembered that my mother packed some peanuts and dates for me last night, saying that they would help us have a baby sooner, and asked me to bring them with me today. But I forgot about it, so go back and get them now."

Yan Jiecheng was stunned: "Peanuts and dates? No need, I think I have prepared some at home."

Yu Li said: "What your family prepared is yours. My mother said that what my family prepared must be taken with me, so that I can be the master of this family in the future."

Yan Jiecheng scratched his head: "Is there such a thing? Can I get it when I go back to my parents' home tomorrow? There are so many people waiting at home."

Yu Li shook her head: "No, my mother said that I must bring it on the same day, and before the ceremony, otherwise I may never be able to have a child in this life."

"This..." Yan Jiecheng had no choice but to say, "Well, Chongzi, let's go back."

Before Yang Chong could say anything, Yu Li said, "No, my mother also said that the car you get married with cannot be brought back, otherwise it will become a second marriage. Go back and get it yourself. We will wait for you here."
