Comfortable life in Siheyuan

Master Lin did not intend to shirk his responsibility. He arrived at Qinjiazhuang on time the next afternoon and had an in-depth and pleasant conversation with Qin Jingru's parents. The topic was naturally their marriage.

The two sides had a pleasant conversation and the atmosphere was harmonious. Finally, they decided on the wedding date. The date was set on Wednesday, when Liu Guangtian would personally ride his bicycle to pick up Qin Jingru. As a gift, Liu Guangtian was required to bring ten yuan, and the matter would be considered a success.

Early in the morning on Wednesday, Liu Guangtian put on a set of clean and decent clothes and rode his bike to Qinjiazhuang. After giving the betrothal gift, he had a meal at the woman's home before returning to the city.

First they went back to the street office to get the marriage certificate, and then went to the master's house. The two newlyweds offered the master a cup of tea and the wedding was over. After dinner, the two returned to the small room in the master's house, which was their temporary home. Liu Guangtian smiled so hard that he couldn't close his mouth.

"Jingru, we are finally a couple. Although this wedding is a little simple, I promise that I will not let you and I live a hard life in the future." Liu Guangtian raised three fingers to the sky and swore.

"Guangtian, I believe you, otherwise why would I marry you?" Qin Jingru's face was flushed and she was a little shy while speaking.

Looking at Qin Jingru's shy appearance, Liu Guangtian was moved. He quickly turned off the lights in the room, took Qin Jingru's hand and sat on the bed.

"I'm scared in broad daylight!" Qin Jingru muttered softly.

"Then I'll turn on the light!" Liu Guangtian said with a grin.

"You hate it!"

At night, the old wooden bed creaked for half the night.

Liu Guangtian was living a sweet and happy life for many days, but the Jia family in the courtyard felt a little uncomfortable.

Today is Saturday. Early in the morning, the three uncles notified the entire hospital that there would be a general meeting in the evening and asked everyone not to be absent.

Liu Qingshan was still a little tired when he got home from get off work. Not long after he sat down, someone came over to deliver a message.

"Uncle Liu, are you home? Uncle asked me to notify you to go to the meeting." Yan Jiefang shouted at the top of his voice.

"I heard it, I heard it. Why are they here so early this time? We just got home and haven't even had dinner yet!" Father Liu was a little puzzled. Didn't they always have meetings after dinner in the past? What was wrong with this today?

"Uncle Liu, I don't know what those uncles are thinking. I am just responsible for passing on the message. By the way, I won't go to Brother Qingshan to talk. Please tell him later." Yan Jiefang said with a smile.

"Okay, I see."

After returning to the house, Father Liu sat down on the stool, with an obviously unhappy look on his face.

"Dad, what's wrong with you? Who made you angry?" Liu Qingshan walked over holding Xixi.

"What's the big deal? It's just some trivial matter in the yard. You said you wanted to have a meeting, so why did you have to start it so early? Our two grandchildren will be hungry later." Father Liu said with a sneer.

"It's okay, Dad. You and I will go there first. Let Mom and Xiaoyu take care of the children at home." Liu Qingshan said with a smile.

At this time, Xiaoyu and Liu's mother also came over. Liu's mother smiled and joked, "You are hungry and don't want to go to the meeting, right? I guess it won't take too long. I will prepare dinner for you at home and you can eat it when you come back."

"You should go earlier and don't keep these old men waiting." Feng Yu said with a smile.

The Liu family father and son got up and went to the central courtyard. As usual, they went to Zhuzi's house to find a stool and sat down at the door of his house, away from the eight-immortal table where the meeting was held.

After a while, several uncles came on stage one by one. Except for the third uncle who brought a notebook and a pen, the other two uncles each came with an enamel pot.

"Everyone, please be quiet. Today's meeting is a summary meeting. It is mainly to summarize the assistance work done in the courtyard over the past six months and see what the results are. After we finish the summary, we will also report it to the street office. We want the leaders to see the unity in the courtyard." An old man said with a smile.

Looking at Yi Zhonghai's formal smile, Qin Huairu's heart skipped a beat. Could it be that he was targeting his family?

"At that time, it was Qingshan's family who helped Sister Li's family in the backyard, my family helped the Jia family, and the uncle helped the Wang family in the front yard. Now, please ask the three families to tell us whether they have received any real help and whether their difficulties have indeed been alleviated." Liu Haizhong stood up and said.

Uncle Wang in the front yard was a little embarrassed, but after thinking about it, he stood up and said slowly: "My family is helped by the uncle. Every month, the uncle brings us corn flour early. Now we don't have to worry about going hungry every month."

As soon as Lao Wang finished speaking, the third uncle took the lead in clapping. Suddenly, the whole yard was filled with applause.

Aunt Li looked at the Jia family in the middle courtyard for a long time without getting up, then she stood up and said, "Qingshan is also very good to us. Now I take care of the children at his house every month. He not only gives me money, but also sends me some food every month. In the past six months, our life has become much better."

Sha Zhu was sitting below, cheering and cheering. Although everyone in the yard was a little envious, they still applauded.

Qin Huairu looked at her mother-in-law who refused to get up, feeling helpless. She had no choice but to stand up and said with a smile: "We also want to thank the second uncle for his help in the past six months. He gave us money at first and corn flour later. Our family finally doesn't need to borrow food in the past six months." Qin Huairu's face flushed.

At this time, the second uncle was enjoying the applause from everyone in the yard and was feeling a little elated.

"Good! This is a good thing. It shows that the people in our courtyard are humane. Our courtyard is a big collective, and we should help each other." Yi Zhonghai began to sing a high-sounding tone.

"We have just talked about the achievements of the assistance work in the first half of the year. Now we will carry out the assistance work in the second half. The first thing to do is to select the poor households." The third uncle stood up and said seriously.

Liu Qingshan looked at the Jia family at this time, and understood the real purpose of this meeting. It seems that the second uncle does not want to help the Jia family anymore. If the poor families are selected again, the Jia family will be in trouble. The first uncle is so cooperative, it is hard to guarantee that he is not still holding a grudge against Yi Xiaojun because of the last time he beat him with a stick.

"Each family gets one vote, and each person selects three families in need." At this point, the first uncle looked at Liu Qingshan and asked with a smile: "Qingshan, you will still participate in the assistance in the second half of the year. The second uncle and I are going to continue to help our neighbors, and you should do the same."

When Liu Qingshan heard what the old man said, he could only smile and say, "Okay, that's no problem for me."

"Okay, let's start voting now." Yi Zhonghai said confidently.

Sha Zhu sat next to Liu Qingshan and patted him with his hand.

"The Jia family probably has no hope this time!"

"No need to estimate, there is no chance. With their family's popularity, it's impossible for them to get in."

"I was wondering why the second uncle hasn't been making trouble recently. Turns out he was waiting here." Sha Zhu said in a low voice.

"This is called an open conspiracy. These gentlemen are very methodical in their work. Don't mess with them if you have nothing to do."
