Comfortable life in Siheyuan

Chapter 141 Lively Banquet

"Weidong, how old are you this year? Where do you live?" He Daqing asked with a smile on his face.

"Uncle, I'm 22 years old and live in Haidian, near the rainwater unit. There are only me and my mother left at home now, and my sister is married." Li Weidong said tremblingly, holding a teacup in his hand.

"Don't be nervous. Uncle He is very easy to talk to." Liu Qingshan noticed the young man's nervousness and comforted him with a smile.

"It's okay, Brother Liu, I'm not nervous." Li Weidong said insincerely. Liu Qingshan looked at the sweat on his forehead, smiled, and said nothing more.

Tian Xiuyun said to Yu Shui at this time: "Yu Shui, you have known each other for a while, when do you plan to get married?"

He Yushui looked up at Li Weidong and said shyly, "Weidong and I plan to get married on the Lantern Festival after meeting our parents."

A touch of emotion flashed across He Daqing's face. He stared at Yu Shui for a moment and sighed, "Our girl has grown up and is going to get married." "Dad, what are you talking about!" Yu Shui blushed with shame.

"Uncle, please believe me, I will treat Yu Shui well. My mother and sister like Yu Shui very much. I am working very hard now, and Yu Shui will not suffer if she follows me." Li Weidong stood up and said solemnly.

"Okay, I believe you. Come have a drink with your uncle at noon. Let's have a good chat." He Daqing said with a smile.

"Hey uncle, okay." Li Weidong said with a smile.

Uncle He stopped talking and just watched the young people chatting happily.

At this time, Sha Zhu came in with a plate of local specialties. Everyone started eating and chatting around the table. Yu Shui occasionally gave Li Weidong some snacks.

At noon, the He family prepared a large table of dishes. Now that the He family's conditions have improved, Sha Zhu will occasionally take some banquet work outside, and their life is very comfortable.

After eating and drinking, everyone had almost finished drinking, and Yu Shui's marriage was finalized at the table.

It's quite simple. Li Weidong can just send two cars to pick her up, and the dowry will go with her. The two families can have a meal together, and that's it.

No one mentioned the betrothal gift, but I guess it’s not convenient to talk about it now. Comrade Xiao Li has been carried to the rain room a long time ago and is still not awake.

"Dad, how could you do this? Look how drunk he is after giving him the drink." Yu Shui grumbled to He Daqing in dissatisfaction.

"My dear daughter! I only raised a glass to him, and the rest were toasts to me. This child is really silly and honest, there is no doubt about it. You should live a good life in the future." He Daqing said helplessly.

"How could the person I found be wrong? She is indeed very honest. She drinks cup after cup and doesn't even know how to drink slowly. Fortunately, she had some snacks at the beginning." Yu Shui said slowly.

"When did you go to his house? How do you get along with his family?" asked the sister-in-law with concern.

"My workplace is close to his home, so his mother invited me to eat some good food. I went there a few times. But the food was really not that good. Later I cooked it myself, and my performance stunned his entire family." Yu Shui said proudly.

Everyone at the table stared at He Yushui as if she were an idiot. They couldn't believe that this girl was just as honest as the silly boy in that room.

"You are really amazing. You never do anything at home, but become diligent when you come to other people's homes." Sha Zhu muttered dissatisfiedly.

"How can a grown-up girl be so eager to show off before even getting married? You are too unreserved." He Daqing said dissatisfiedly.

It’s no wonder that they were dissatisfied. They had never tasted the little cotton-padded jacket made by her.

"You cook tonight and we can test your cooking skills at home. Don't always be so ungrateful." My sister-in-law also chimed in.

"Sister-in-law, what are you doing? My cooking skills are just enough to fool others. People in my family are so picky. No, no, my cooking skills are not good enough." Yu Shui said hurriedly.

"It has to be done no matter what. If you don't eat it now, you may never have another chance in the future." My sister-in-law refused.

"Sister-in-law, you are laughing at me too." Yu Shui ran back to the room shyly.

"Qingshan, come and drink by ourselves." Sha Zhu said with a smile.

"Come on, have a drink. Your future brother-in-law can't drink much, so you, as his brother-in-law, have to take him to practice." Liu Qingshan said with a smile.

"Hey! There's no need to force it. Look at Xu Damao, he drinks a lot of wine and his alcohol tolerance is still the same." Sha Zhu said with a smile.

"Dad, since we are getting married in Yu Shui, you have to stay at home for a while." Tian Xiuyun asked.

"Yes, play with it for a few more days. Look how cute this cow is!" Liu Qingshan also advised with a smile.

"I'd better go back. I'll come back again before the Lantern Festival. I have to go to work for a few days in the next few days." He Daqing said apologetically.

"Dad, how have you been over there this year? You didn't suffer, did you?" Only Tian Xiuyun could ask this question. Sha Zhu was not that attentive, and Yu Shui's mind was not on this these past two days.

"That family is counting on me now, how can I suffer? I just miss my eldest grandson so much that I can't see him." He Daqing said with disdain.

"If you really miss Niu Niu, just break off contact with them. Yu Shui is married now, so I will clean up the ear room and you can come back to live there. Niu Niu can also eat the meals cooked by grandpa. Maybe your eldest grandson will even pass on your cooking skills to you!" Sha Zhu advised helplessly.

As soon as these words came out, everyone at the table felt that He Daqing's eyes suddenly lit up.

"This Niu Niu is still young and cannot be handed over." He Daqing said somewhat disappointedly.

"Uncle He, you are wrong. Don't you have to cultivate a relationship with your eldest grandson? What if he gives up and refuses to learn? What do you think you will do?" Nan Yi advised with a smile.

After these words were spoken, He Daqing fell into a dilemma again.

After a while, it seemed as if he had finally made up his mind: "I will come back in two years when my child is older. By then, he will be able to learn to read."

"Hey! That's right, let your grandson taste your cooking skills." Sha Zhu said loudly with a satisfied smile on his face.

"Yes, if you come back, we can take care of you." Tian Xiuyun responded with a smile and a gentle tone.

Then they chatted for a while, the atmosphere was relaxed and pleasant, and soon everyone went their separate ways.

However, Yu Shui was always worried about Li Weidong. She would visit him from time to time, worried that he was not feeling well or was in a bad mood.

Time passed quickly, and it was already evening. Li Weidong woke up from a nap and felt much better. Although the He family repeatedly tried to keep him, he politely declined the invitation. Then, Li Weidong rode his bicycle and set off on his way home.
