Siheyuan: My Golden Finger is updated weekly

In a blink of an eye, it was Xu Damao's wedding day.

Today is the weekend.

Xu Damao started working intensively early in the morning.

I also specially invited Yan Bugui to help collect the membership fees and keep accounts.

Sha Zhu had already set the table before he started cooking.

Every table was filled with melon seeds, peanuts, candies, cigarettes and liquor.

It was quite a grand occasion.

Xu Damao was also a man who cared about his reputation, and the wife he married was a daughter of a wealthy family, so of course the banquet could not be shabby.

Xu Damao is dressed up smartly today. He is tall and in high spirits, and is in high spirits.

Lou Xiao'e was wearing a bright red dress, looking very festive.

Both sets of parents also came to the compound.

However, Lou Bancheng did not have many common topics with these common people. He stayed in Xu Damao's house the whole time and it seemed that he did not intend to show up until the banquet started.

However, after meeting Li Meng and learning that Li Meng also lived here, I chatted with Li Meng for a few words.

"Little comrade, so you live here too?"

Lou Zhenhua had a good impression of Li Meng, after all, he had helped his daughter treat her leg once.

Although I was disappointed when I learned that Li Meng had a wife, after all, I originally thought that he and Lou Xiao'e could become a couple.

But as a shareholder, he had heard about how Li Meng helped the police solve a major case some time ago, and he had an even better impression of Li Meng.

[Ding, gain from Lou Zhenhua's favorability +20, appreciation +30, disappointment +10...]

A beep sounds.

Li Meng frowned slightly.

Disappointed?

Why is Lou Bancheng disappointed with himself?

You don't have much interaction with him?

"Could it be that he saw that I hadn't given any gift and felt that he was not giving face to his son-in-law?"

Li Meng thought about it and smiled, "Yes, Mr. Lou, this is really a coincidence. I didn't expect to meet you here. Last time you recommended me to work in the steel rolling mill, I haven't thanked you in person yet."

"Hey, that's a small matter. You were able to be promoted from a temporary worker to a patrol leader so quickly. That's real ability. It also proves that I didn't make a mistake in choosing you."

"Boss Lou, you are so kind."

After the two chatted for a while, Li Meng smiled and said, "Okay, Mr. Lou, please sit down. I have to go out and have some fun. Damao is getting married today, and I'm going to congratulate him."

After leaving Xu Damao's house, Li Meng went to find Yan Bugui.

......

In the courtyard.

Xu Damao and his wife were greeting guests.

There are neighbors, as well as various bad friends that Xu Damao met outside.

Neighbors usually give 5 or 7 cents, so 1 dollar is considered a lot.

As for Xu Damao's friends, none of the gifts they gave were less than 1 yuan.

Among them, there was a person from the Propaganda Department who gave a huge sum of 2 yuan.

Xu Damao is also a respectable person and is good at entertaining guests.

The whole compound was filled with joy.

"Da Mao, you know the situation of Third Uncle's family. I'll give him 5 cents. The difference is just my thoughtfulness. You can't blame Third Uncle." Yan Bugui said with a smile.

"Oh! That can't be possible, uncle. What are you talking about? You are helping me with this, but I haven't paid you the fee yet. 5 cents is not a small amount!"

Xu Damao didn't give him any money for writing, but Yan Bugui spent 5 cents and had a banquet with him. The cost was about the same.

Sha Zhu held a white radish in his hand, took out a dollar from his pocket and threw it on the table.

"Here, grandson!"

After all, they are from the same courtyard and have been fighting since childhood. They have a deep hatred for each other. But it would be absolutely unacceptable if Sha Zhu didn't pay a penny on Xu Damao's wedding day.

"Hey? Who are you calling grandson?" Xu Damao glared.

There was a wife and friends next to him, and Sha Zhu humiliated him on the spot, he couldn't bear the shame.

Sha Zhu laughed and said, "My name is Uncle San. What does it have to do with you?"

Behind the table, Yan Bugui's old face darkened and he spat, "This idiot is so shameless!"

After cursing, he took the money and started to record the account in a notebook.

"Haha..." Xu Damao's expression eased a little, and he said to Lou Xiao'e: "Wife, this guy's name is...you don't need to care what he's called, just call him Shazhu. I let him beat me last time. We have been fighting since we were young, with wins and losses. Last time I was careless, and I had a cold, and I hadn't eaten breakfast yet. You see, I'm even speaking with a nasal tone..."

"Wait until I recover from my cold. He might be able to beat me. I can also fight..."

Seeing Xu Damao trying to make up for it, Lou Xiaoe found it funny, "Yeah, I get it."

The residents gave gifts one after another, and Xu Damao introduced them to Lou Xiao'e one by one.

Lou Xiao'e has never lived in such a compound since she was a child.

It is quite interesting to see all these different kinds of people at this moment.

"Xu Damao, my family is having a hard time, so I'll give you 3 cents. Please don't be picky."

Jia Zhang placed 3 cents on the table and said, "Normally, only one person can come from this family to eat, but my eldest grandson is still young... Do you think it's okay for our family to send two people? I will eat at the banquet with my eldest grandson, and Dongxu and Huairu will not eat."

These days, no one brings their family along to the table. It is normal for one person per household to come. Of course, there are exceptions where the amount given as a gift is large.

Xu Damao frowned and thought to himself, your family is the only one that has children, don’t other families have children?

3 cents for two people?

But then I thought, on such a happy occasion there is no point in causing trouble with that old hag Jia Zhang.

He nodded and said, "Okay."

At this time, Liu Haizhong also came over.

"Xu Damao, you are also a child who grew up under the care of the second uncle. Time flies so fast. In a blink of an eye, the naughty boy has married a wife. Tsk tsk..."

Liu Haizhong sighed and took out 2 yuan from his pocket.

"Second uncle wishes you a happy wedding."

He was the second richest man in the compound and earned a lot. Even if he looked down on Xu Damao, he would still have to pay at least two dollars whenever there was a wedding or funeral in the compound.

Otherwise he would feel embarrassed.

Not to mention that the residents would talk about you behind your back.

So this money has to be paid.

"Oh, thank you, Uncle!"

Xu Damao introduced: "Xiao'e, this is the second uncle who is in charge of our backyard. He is a senior worker in our factory and is very capable..."

Liu Haizhong gave 2 yuan, and Yi Zhonghai, as the eldest uncle in the courtyard, even though he was reluctant to spend money, still took out 5 yuan.

"Da Mao, I wish you and your wife a happy marriage and a long life together."

Yi Zhonghai couldn't bring himself to say words like "May you have a baby soon". He just laughed twice and gave his blessing, which was what an old man like him should say.

"Wow! You're still my uncle!"

Xu Damao gave a thumbs up: "You are so generous! You are so generous!"

While they were talking, Li Meng also walked over with his wife Zhang Chunmei.
