Siheyuan: Pioneer in anti-corruption, fighting against evil!

After listening, Yi Zhonghai said sincerely: "Don't worry, Director Wang, I will go to Jiajiazhuang this time to see the actual situation and personally check to see how Jia Zhang's labor reform progresses, so as to be realistic."

It may be easy to deceive a child, but it is a bit difficult to deceive Director Wang who has been working in this street for seven years.

"Actually, Mrs. Zhang can go home. But you are the boss of this courtyard, so you have to give her a guarantee?" Director Wang continued to ask with a serious look.

Yi Zhonghai wondered, what guarantee?

"Make sure that Mrs. Zhang corrects her previous bad habits of swearing and being unreasonable when she returns here. Otherwise, you will be responsible if anything happens to Jia Dongxu." The director's expression was extremely stern.

Is this called "joint liability"?

Yi Zhonghai was a little conflicted.

He knew very well that the old woman Jia Zhang was a person who spoke without restraint.

Trying to stop her from scolding you is harder than climbing a mountain.

If he doesn't bring her back, he won't be able to fight back against Li Aiguo, and Jia Dongxu will feel disappointed and frustrated, and lose his support.

Now the only "retirement backup" that can be relied on - Fan Jinyou, is no longer reliable, so Jia Dongxu is even more rare and valuable.

After some hesitation, he finally agreed.

He believed there was still a way to control Jia Zhang.

then,

then,

Director Wang helped Yi Zhonghai to complete all the necessary procedures and issued relevant passes, and all preparations were ready.

In another place,

With their help, all the families and ordinary residents in Yitian Village

Finally, I brought a second-hand old-fashioned household sewing machine back home.

This old household sewing machine is placed in a location that receives plenty of sunlight.

With this setup, you can make clothes easily without turning on additional lighting.

"Sister Xueru, you are an old tailor!

Could you tell me how to use your sewing machine?

My younger sister, I also really want to learn this technique.

"Sister Yudi was circling around Chen Xueru with great enthusiasm.

As if being pulled here by the sewing machine, her eyes could not conceal her excitement.

She has great interest and enthusiasm in this.

"Of course, I have something to do.

Well, oil me before sewing,

Next I will use my feet to drive.

Throw it on the pedal several times,

It feels silky smooth instantly.

Then take out the thread and fabric that have been threaded,

Sit down in the chair and start explaining.

This is how I taught my younger sister: Sister Rain,

Once you learn how to sew, remember it.

The same stitches come, and you must only move forward,

It is irreversible.

If sister Rainwater moves the needle backwards,

Your pins will fall off.

All I can do is start over.

You need to remember this.”

The girl nodded and thought seriously.

At this time, they were discussing the principles of sewing machines.

at the same time.

Uncle Jiu sat aside, spreading out the blueprint in his hand.

In his eyes, the fine parts and layouts appeared one by one.

During this period, due to some reasons,

The reconstruction drawing of the semi-dump body that is almost completed needs urgent redrawing.

Soon, around 3:45 in the afternoon,

In this short one-hour period,

Sister Haha not only made a sewing machine oil box,

Even a set of all-white sewing machine tank covers has been completed,

The small and exquisite appearance made Grandpa Jiu couldn't help laughing, and he secretly admired his wife's exquisite craftsmanship.

These daily necessities are indeed highly valued in China.

Hard to give up, from bedding sets to all kinds of home appliance protection,

We always try to find ways to decorate every item in our home into a unique and personal work.

Especially sofa cushions, TV shell leather covers and refrigerator insulation shell leather covers,

Waiting and waiting are common attire in homes.

Perhaps it is the Chinese people's traditional virtues of simplicity and their values ​​of frugality that are at work.

In recent days, Brother Nine has been leaving early and returning late.

Day after day, I took Aunt Jiu to wander around.

Buy all the necessary items for the upcoming wedding.

In fact, for people of this era,

No one has the money to spend lavishly.

It may be some simple household items or daily tools such as towels, kettles,

Dinner plates, etc.

Women naturally like to dress up.

The unimaginable enthusiasm makes the shopping list never end.

Waiting for the last pair of Brother Jiu's leather shoes to appear,

The Farmer King finally found an auspicious date in the old book of all things and chose a weekend as the wedding date.

According to his explanation, this moment is considered the most auspicious and suitable for forming a partnership.

Brother Jiu doesn't care about these things.

But he knew that if his parents were happy, he should not go against their wishes.

After estimating the schedule, there are less than five working days left.

This made Chen Xueru start to feel anxious.

It took her half a day to collect all the necessary items.

Li Aiguo, holding a letter of recommendation from the locomotive section, went to the Civil Affairs Bureau with Chen Xueru to register their marriage.

He distributed the money earned during the day to the staff as a reward, and he himself left the office area carrying the red marriage certificate.

The adjacent room was the department that handled divorce matters, and just then a middle-aged couple who had recently completed their divorce walked out of the room.

"Old Zhao, you can do whatever you want from now on!" the man shouted.

"Dashan, I've told you countless times that man is my cousin. He came here to fix the legs of our stool."

"The one who repaired the stool legs? Would he come into your bed?"

The man's face was pale and covered with scars as if he had been scratched by a cat.

The woman's nose and face were swollen, and there were some marks on the corners of her mouth.

The two quarreled on the road.

The cause of the incident is obvious.

For Li Aiguo, the most important things are the two divorce certificates he has just received.

The divorce certificate against the backdrop of time was truly desolate green.

It aptly reflects the characteristics of that era.

---

Leave the Civil Affairs Bureau after completing the formalities.

Li Aiguo borrowed another photo album from the equipment department of the locomotive depot.

I went to the city ** park with Chen Xueru to take a series of photos - some of which were individual scenes, and some included the two of us. After the photos were developed,

The photo will be framed.

When children grow up, they can also use this opportunity to understand the beauty of the times when their parents loved them.

Originally, Li Aiguo planned to invite Chen Xueru to try a traditional dress style and shoot a picture with a Nanyang style.

In the end, the idea had to be abandoned because the girl was too shy.

After finishing these chores, the clock was approaching noon.

On the way back to Sifangyuan, Li Aiguo remembered that the wedding shop had not been purchased yet. Considering that these things belong to the bride, the man is usually not responsible for purchasing them.

So, we headed to the department store to find a place to buy.

At this moment, the department store was just dispersing people and the number of people was sparse.

He locked the bicycle and led Chen Xueru through the door curtain into the store.

I went directly to the finished quilt cover and bed sheet area to buy, and selected two sets of bright red wedding decorations.

One set features a mandarin duck pattern on the water, while the other symbolizes prosperity.

Holding the receipt provided by the salesperson, he walked to the cashier counter to pay and found that the cashier was about to finish his work for the day.

Although there was a bit of unhappiness on his face, he still maintained the necessary professionalism in such a large store.

Li Aiguo remained calm as he handed over the list first, then took out two twenty-yuan bills and a set of twelve zhang of cloth coupons.

Seeing that Li Aiguo was indifferent, the colleague who collected the money had no choice but to accept the money. Then he picked up the stamp and pressed a few points heavily on the voucher.

This has become common practice.

At this time, if you approach these elders, try to get close to them.

They will most likely scold you and use you as an object for their anger, and will not help you until their emotions have subsided a little.

If you really have to give them some hard truths and they are in a disadvantageous position, they will feel uneasy.

After receiving the receipt, Li Aiguo didn't even look at the man. He walked to the counter and took away the carefully wrapped wedding sheets.

After purchasing the wedding quilt, he went to the food counter on the first floor and weighed two kilograms of candy and three kilograms of melon seeds.

He was planning to distribute wedding candies to every resident in the courtyard to add to the atmosphere.

Li Aiguo and Chen Fangxuan have very different ideas about holding the wedding banquet.

According to Chen Fangxuan's suggestion, they should celebrate in a grand manner, order meals at restaurants in the capital, and invite friends and family to share the holiday. This would give them more face and they would naturally receive more gifts.

In contrast, Li Aiguo wants to follow industry norms and only entertain colleagues in the cafeteria and is unwilling to accept red envelopes.

As for the neighbors in the courtyard, you can just give them some wedding candies and melon seeds as a token of friendship and that's it.

Neither of them could convince the other. In the end, Chen Xueru made the decision: "Then listen to Li Aiguo."

The old man Chen Fangxuan had no choice but to sit aside with grievance, saying in a whine: "My old cotton-padded jacket is unraveling."

Although it would be less troublesome not to hold a large wedding banquet, it is still a big happy event after all, so some candies should still be given.

As I passed through the gate, I happened to see Yan Jiefang stepping on an electric grinding wheel outside the door, acting as a human generator.

Yan Bugui's voice could be heard from inside the house from time to time, "Jiefang, hurry up, the lights won't turn on, how am I going to write the lesson plan?"

Yan Jiecheng curled his lips and seemed about to cry. During this period, because the Yan family applied to the power supply bureau for a power outage, the family's electricity was almost entirely dependent on manual power generation by the Yan family's eldest, second and third sons.

Every other week, electricity is supplied to Yan Jiecheng on Mondays and Wednesdays, Yan Jiefang is in charge on Tuesdays and Thursdays, and Yan Jiekuang handles electricity matters on Sundays.

Although pedaling the grinding wheel was not very strenuous, it still took two or three hours of continuous pedaling every day, which made Yan Jiekuang often feel his legs trembling.

The third aunt was hanging clothes in the corridor. It was a suit jacket, and after tidying it up, she carefully touched every wrinkle with her fingers to make it look neater and more tidy when it was dried.

Li Aiguo parked his motorcycle aside and walked over with Chen Xueru.

He took out a bag of candy from his canvas bag and handed it to Auntie, "Auntie, Chen Xueru and I plan to hold our wedding this Saturday."

"Oh, what a wonderful thing!"

Aunt Wang took the candy with both hands and said with a smile, "Where are you going to hold the banquet? I think the prices in the restaurants outside are too high. It would be better to open a few pots in our compound and hire a chef to cook. This would save money and be convenient."
