Dressed as a little fool: marry and have children

When He Yuzhu and his friends returned to Sijiu City, it was still early. Instead of going back to the courtyard directly, they followed Matchmaker Wang to her home.

When they arrived at Matchmaker Wang's house, He Yuzhu stopped and said to Matchmaker Wang, "Auntie Wang, this is the matchmaker's money for you." He stretched out his hand and handed over the money.

Matchmaker Wang took the money with a smile. Under the dim light of the street lamp, she took a look at the money in her hand. It was 5 yuan, 3 yuan more than the matchmaker had promised her. A trace of doubt flashed in her eyes, and she looked up at He Yuzhu.

He Yuzhu understood Wang the matchmaker's doubts, so he explained directly: "Auntie Wang, this is extra hard work fee. I have something else to ask of you."

After hearing this, matchmaker Wang thought to herself that He Yuzhu had something to ask of her, so she gave him more money. But she did not accept the money directly, but asked cautiously: "Silly Zhu, tell me what it is first. If it is difficult, Aunt Wang will not easily agree."

He Yuzhu smiled and said to Matchmaker Wang: "Auntie Wang, don't worry, it's not a difficult task. I want you to help take Xiuxiu to buy two sets of clothes and shoes."

When matchmaker Wang heard about this, she heaved a sigh of relief, as if a heavy burden had been lifted off her shoulders. A relaxed and happy smile appeared on her face, and her eyes and eyebrows were filled with kindness and enthusiasm.

She quickly put away the money in her hand, then gently patted He Yuzhu's shoulder, her tone full of confidence and determination: "Silly Zhu, this matter is left to Aunt Wang. Don't worry, I will definitely do it for you."

At this moment, Liu Xiuxiu pulled He Yuzhu's sleeve, and her little face was full of worry. She whispered to He Yuzhu: "Brother Yuzhu, ready-made clothes are expensive. We can buy cloth and make them ourselves. I know how to make clothes." Although her voice was low, He Yuzhu, who was beside her, could still hear her words clearly.

He Yuzhu felt Liu Xiuxiu's worry, he turned around, patted the back of her hand gently, his eyes full of warmth and comfort: "Xiuxiu, don't worry, I have money. You see you don't have any spare clothes, let's buy them this time, and I'll let you make all the clothes in the future." His voice was soft, as if it could soothe all of Liu Xiuxiu's worries.

Hearing He Yuzhu's words, Liu Xiuxiu's face showed a touching expression. Although she was still reluctant to spend money, she finally said nothing more after being comforted by He Yuzhu.

In order to ensure that Liu Xiuxiu would not be reluctant to spend money, He Yuzhu directly handed the money to Wang the matchmaker and asked her to help buy clothes. Wang the matchmaker took the money, smiled and nodded, saying that she would definitely take care of this matter.

After arranging all this, He Yuzhu and Liu Xiuxiu separated temporarily. He turned and walked towards the street office to get a marriage certificate. After all, he had brought the person back, and if he didn't get the certificate, he was afraid that Xiuxiu would think too much.

Liu Xiuxiu followed matchmaker Wang into the door of the supply and marketing cooperative, and her eyes were immediately attracted by the dazzling array of goods inside. All kinds of colorful fabrics, all kinds of ready-made clothes, and all kinds of daily necessities made her feel like Granny Liu walking into the Grand View Garden, overwhelmed.

The salesman's eyes swept over Liu Xiuxiu, who was dressed simply and even covered with patches, which made her look out of place in the environment of this supply and marketing cooperative. The salesman could not help but frown slightly, with a look of disdain on his face.

However, when she noticed that the matchmaker Wang was dressed decently and neatly, she immediately restrained her attitude and did not drive her away directly. Despite this, her attitude was still cold and not very enthusiastic.

Matchmaker Wang didn't care about the salesperson's attitude at all. She took Liu Xiuxiu straight to the ready-made clothing area. She carefully selected clothes and pointed at them from time to time to explain to Liu Xiuxiu beside her: "This fabric is soft and breathable, very comfortable to wear, and the color is suitable for your age."

Liu Xiuxiu followed behind Wang the matchmaker, watching her skillfully choosing clothes, feeling both grateful and distressed. She had just overheard the salesperson talking about the prices of the clothes, and those figures were simply astronomical to her. She had never seen so much money before.

However, she did not dare to stop Matchmaker Wang and could only stand aside silently, praying in her heart that Matchmaker Wang would not choose clothes that were too expensive.

On the way back, Matchmaker Wang introduced Liu Xiuxiu to the nearby buildings and places as they walked, and even told her which places sold cheap vegetables and which places sold good meat.

Liu Xiuxiu listened with great interest. She was full of curiosity and yearning for these new things. At the same time, her gratitude to Wang the Matchmaker became even deeper.

When the two returned to Wang the Matchmaker's house, He Yuzhu had not come back yet. Wang the Matchmaker saw that there was still some money left in her hand from He Yuzhu, so she asked Liu Xiuxiu to take a change of clothes to the bathhouse.

After a while, Liu Xiuxiu came out after taking a bath and changing her clothes. She looked radiant in her new clothes, completely different from her previous rustic image.

Matchmaker Wang was so surprised by the change in Liu Xiuxiu that she almost didn't recognize her. She looked at Liu Xiuxiu carefully. From her hair to her shoes, she looked brand new, as if she had been reborn. She sincerely admired in her heart: "It really fits the old saying that clothes make the man, and saddles make the horse!"

At the same time, she also felt that she had a unique vision. The clothes and shoes she chose perfectly set off Liu Xiuxiu's beauty and temperament. He Yuzhu was really lucky.

After He Yuzhu successfully obtained the marriage certificate at the street office, he went directly to a nearby candy store without staying for long.

He knew that although they were not planning to hold a grand wedding this time, according to custom, it was necessary to distribute wedding candies when taking the bride to meet people. He bought 2 kilograms of hard candies and planned to give a few to each household.

When he returned to Wang the matchmaker's residence, He Yuzhu was immediately attracted by the completely new Liu Xiuxiu. She was wearing new clothes, her hair was neatly combed, and her face was rosy as if she had put on blush. She looked beautiful and generous.

He Yuzhu couldn't help but stare in amazement. He widened his eyes and looked at Liu Xiuxiu carefully, as if he wanted to imprint every detail about her in his mind.

Matchmaker Wang looked at He Yuzhu's incredulous eyes and couldn't help but teasing, "Silly Zhu, don't say you don't recognize him. Even I didn't recognize him when I first saw him."

He Yuzhu and Liu Xiuxiu were a little embarrassed by what Wang the matchmaker said. He Yuzhu scratched his head and smiled awkwardly, while Liu Xiuxiu lowered her head with a blush on her face.

Seeing this, matchmaker Wang knew that they still had a lot of things to do, so she didn't try to keep them. She handed the remaining money to He Yuzhu, told them to be careful on the road, and sent them away.

He Yuzhu and Liu Xiuxiu didn't talk much along the way. He Yuzhu wanted to find a topic to break the silence, so he thought of talking about his family situation.

He told Liu Xiuxiu that his mother had passed away long ago, his father had remarried, and he had been living in the courtyard, hoping that in this way, Liu Xiuxiu would better understand his past and current situation.

After hearing about He Yuzhu's experience, Liu Xiuxiu couldn't help but feel some sympathy. She thought of her own experience, which was similar to He Yuzhu's, and she was full of hatred for the people who forced He Daqing, Yi Zhonghai and the deaf old lady to leave. She held He Yuzhu's hand tightly and said that she would always support him and accompany him.

He Yuzhu felt a warm current in his heart as he looked at Liu Xiuxiu who shared the same hatred for the enemy. He patted her head and continued to tell her about the people in the courtyard with a smile.

He hoped that through his stories, Liu Xiuxiu would have a better understanding of the life in the courtyard house so that she could be independent when he was away and would not be deceived by others.
