The life of a villain in a courtyard

"You must be Qin Huairu. Your mother-in-law, Jia Zhang, has been arrested by us. Now we need you to go over and sign to pick her up. Oh, and bring twenty dollars with you. She ate a free meal at someone else's restaurant and smashed the table and plates. You have to pay compensation."

After all, Jia Zhang didn't commit any crime. She just had a quarrel with the store owner and ate a free meal at most. She just needed to pay the money, so she notified Qin Huairu to take the money to redeem the person and take him away at the same time.

"Twenty yuan! Police comrade, can you give me a lower price? This is too much money and my family can't afford it."

"That won't do. Besides, the money isn't fixed. It's the price of the boss's things being smashed."

Qin Huairu had no choice but to take out twenty yuan from her meager little treasury to clean up Jia Zhang's mess, and at the same time decided to deduct the money from the monthly pension for Jia Zhang.

Not long after Qin Huairu left, a head popped out of the house, and the owner of this head was Banggeng.

This morning, when Jia Zhang was taking the money, she was caught by Bang Geng. Now there is only one ignorant Huaihua at home, so it is a good opportunity.

He went to the closet and took out the money box from the innermost part. When he opened it, his eyes were almost blinded. It was more than 500 yuan. He had never seen so much money in his life. So many ten-yuan bills! He could buy a lot of delicious food!

At this moment, roast chicken, pork elbows, soda, cakes and candies were like little angels flying in Banggeng's mind, as if seducing him.

There are now two little men in Banggeng's mind, one who wants him to take the money, and the other who wants him to take it all without leaving a single cent.

"Anyway, all this money will be mine after you die!"

Thinking of this, Bang Geng grabbed the box and took away all the money inside. Then he put the empty box back and left the house, forgetting about Qin Huairu's request to take care of Huaihua.

They are truly a loving family.

……

"Hey boy, you're here!"

"Yes, Aunt Liu, how is your leg?"

"Much better, thank you for your concern."

Su Yun has sent Chen Li home many times and has become familiar with the people in the No. 27 compound.

"Lili, your boyfriend is here!"

Aunt Liu shouted towards the house, her voice so loud that everyone in the entire courtyard could hear it. Chen Li was thin-skinned and couldn't stand such teasing, so she ran two steps and pulled Su Yun into the house.

Chen Li's sister-in-law was in the room, hugging her shoulders and looking at Su Yun with a cold face. Shen Changfeng once made a promise to her that as long as he and Chen Li could be together, he would give her a 30 yuan matchmaking gift. However, Su Yun intervened and Su Yun was used to it. He always had a sour face every time he came to Wang Yunxia.

When Chen Li's elder brother saw Su Yun coming, he asked his wife to pour him a cup of tea. Chen Li also went to the yard to get a basin of water for him to wash his hands.

Wang Yunxia poured Su Yun a glass because he had so many things in his hands.

After taking a sip of sweet tea and washing his face, the heat from the journey disappeared, and Su Yun felt much more comfortable sitting in the chair.

"Come if you want to. What else do you want to bring?"

"It's not right to come empty-handed for the first time."

This was his first official visit.

"Brother Chen, what do you want to talk to me about?"

Chen Yuan picked up the teacup, took a sip, and remained silent for a long time before slowly opening his mouth.

"Su Yun, you've been dating my sister for a few months. When do you plan to get married?"

"Cough cough!"

Su Yun spat out a mouthful of water. He didn't expect that the other party would come to him to talk about this matter.

"Why? Don't you want to marry my sister?"

Chen Yuan's attitude became stern. If this happened, he would kick him out.

"No, no, I'm just not ready yet. After all, we've only been together for less than four months."

You have to know that in later generations it takes at least a year from dating to getting married, so he was so surprised to hear this.

"Four months is not a short time. Her sister-in-law and I met less than five times before we got married."

"Brother, I don't want to get married yet"

Chen Li suddenly walked in from outside and interrupted Chen Yuan. She had been eavesdropping on their conversation outside.

"What nonsense are you talking about! Men should get married when they are old enough, and women should get married when they are old enough. How can you not get married?"

"I didn't say I wouldn't get married, I just didn't want to get married so early."

Chen Li didn't want to leave home so early. As the saying goes, a daughter who is married off is like water spilled, and she was afraid that she would never come back after getting married.

"Brother knows that you are reluctant to leave this family, but it doesn't mean that you will not be allowed to come back after you get married."

With Chen Yuan's repeated assurances, Chen Li finally felt relieved.

"Su Yun, do you have any elders in your family?"

"No, I'm the only one left at home."

There are still a few relatives on Su's mother's side, but we haven't been in touch with them for many years, and we don't know whether they are dead or alive.

The next step is to follow a fixed procedure and agree on a time. Su Yun also has to go to the factory to get a letter of introduction, otherwise he cannot get married.

As for the betrothal gift, Chen Yuan did not ask for it, but he asked Su Yun to buy a bicycle and a sewing machine for his sister. To be honest, this request was not low. These two things together would cost three or four hundred yuan, but he still agreed.

When Su Yun left that night, Wang Yunxia walked into the room with a dark face. She was probably going to quarrel with Chen Li's elder brother. She didn't get any benefits from Chen Li's marriage. She wanted to take the opportunity to ask for some betrothal gifts but was blocked by Chen Yuan.

Since the one getting married was Chen Li, everything Su Yun gave naturally belonged to Chen Li. Their family was marrying off their daughter, not selling her.

I have to say that Chen Yuan's level of thinking is far beyond the current version.

After returning to the courtyard, Su Yun found Sha Zhu. He needed a chef. The two families had already agreed that there would be two wedding banquets. One would be held at the courtyard No. 27 where the Chen family lived, so that the neighbors could join in the fun, and the other would be held at the Red Star Courtyard.

"Is your brother here, Yushui?"

"Brother! Brother Su Yun is looking for you!"

"coming."

Sha Zhu patted the flour on his hands. He had just been kneading dough to prepare steamed buns.

"looking for me?"

"Brother Zhuzi, are you free at the end of next month?"

"Yes, what's wrong?"

"I'm getting married and I'm planning to set up a few tables in the yard."

"Married! You are amazing! You got a wife without telling anyone! When will you bring the girl over for me to see?"

"Brother, look at Brother Su Yun, and then look at you. You haven't found a sister-in-law for me yet."

"Isn't that a special case?"

"Brother Su Yun, I want to eat wedding candy."

He Yushui ran to Su Yun, smiled and stretched out her hand to ask him for candy.

"Don't be silly, wedding candy is given when the bride is picked up!"

"It's okay. I just happen to have some candy at home. I'll get it for you."

After a while, Su Yun came back with a handful of sour tricolor candies and put them all in He Yushui's hands. These candies were given to him by someone when he helped him buy fish some time ago. He didn't like this kind of low-quality fruit candy, so he never ate it.

"Thank you, Brother Su Yun."

He Yushui skipped back home with the candy.

"My dad will be back next month, and then we will cook this meal together."

"Uncle He is coming back?"

He remembered that He Daqing was brought back by Xu Damao after the reform and opening up. Why is he back now?

"Yeah, my dad told us before he left last time that he would come back after he finished with Baocheng's affairs."

"Then your house won't be big enough. There are six of us, including Uncle He, Widow Bai, and her two sons. How are you going to get married in the future?"

"My dad has already planned to break up with the White Widow. I'm telling you, this woman is not a good person. When I brought Yu Shui to find my dad, she refused to let me in. Things have changed. I will treat her the same way she treated me. You want to enter my He family? Dream on!"

The courtyard was not big, and everyone soon knew that Su Yun was going to get married.

"Old man Su Yun is getting married. Go ask him when he plans to hold the wedding so we can prepare in advance."

The second aunt rushed to Yan Fugui and urged him to go and ask.

"Okay, I'll go over and ask."

Yan Fugui came to Su Yun's door and pushed it, but it didn't open.

"Su Yun, Su Yun, are you home? I'm your second uncle!"

Su Yun was feeding the dog in the house when he heard Yan Fugui looking for him, and walked over to open the door.

"Second uncle, what do you want from me?"

"I heard you're getting married! Whose girl is it? How come there's no news about it? Bring the girl over some other day, and I'll help you check it out."

"Second uncle, I'm afraid you didn't come to see me just for this, right?"

"Look at what you said. After all, I am your elder. How can it be false that an elder cares about a younger person?"
