Rebirth He Yuzhu I am a family man
Chapter 71 Xu Damao Wants a Wife
Lou Xiao'e kept her word. She went into the kitchen in the west wing alone and started to work seriously. At her age, Li Cuilan usually stayed in the backyard and had nothing to do except housework. Because her life was easy, her sleep was very light. When she heard the movement in the kitchen, she got dressed and got up.
Li Cuilan went to the kitchen and saw that it was her new daughter-in-law Lou Xiao'e who was busy. She quickly said politely, "Xiao'e, you worked so hard yesterday, why didn't you sleep in and get up later? This is a new society, we can't do the old ways anymore, let me make breakfast!"
"The speaker may not mean it, but the listener may take it seriously." Lou Xiao'e blushed immediately. She wondered, "Could it be that the voice of the recitation of "Ode to the Goose" was too loud last night, and everyone in the backyard heard it?"
Lou Xiao'e was stunned for a moment, and Li Cuilan took over the work in her hands. Li Cuilan said warmly: "Xiao'e, don't get up too early in the future. I will prepare meals for the family. You just need to do the housework in your east wing and clean your own clothes..."
Seeing Li Cuilan's sincerity, Lou Xiao'e no longer insisted on making breakfast by herself. She obediently helped in the kitchen and lit the fire in the stove.
In a flash, it was the third day after the wedding. Early in the morning, He Yuzhu and Lou Xiao'e went to the Lou family with the gifts prepared by He Daqing in advance. Seeing Lou Xiao'e's walking posture and her happy expression, Lou's mother knew that her daughter was very happy. Poor parents in the world, there is a saying that love for the house extends to the dog. He Yuzhu became the son-in-law of the Lou family. Lou Tan thought he was good in every way and kept persuading them to go out and play and come back for dinner.
He Yuzhu refused and said bluntly: "After lunch, the two of you can go out and play. As for the dishes, let him cook." Lou Tan couldn't persuade her son-in-law and could only let him do what he wanted. The servants of the Lou family originally thought that the young lady had brought a new son-in-law back home, and they would be busy today. Unexpectedly, the new son-in-law was still as good as before and started cooking as soon as he arrived.
These days, because they had nothing to do, they secretly learned "Ode to the Goose". After lunch, Lou Xiao'e felt tired and took He Yuzhu back to her boudoir before she got married. Everyone has been young before. Lou Bancheng and Lou Tanshi were very happy to see their daughter and son-in-law loving each other.
After dinner, Lou Tan watched her daughter and her son-in-law playing the piano and the phonograph...she thought that her daughter might want to sleep at home. So she went to Lou Xiao'e and persuaded her indirectly: "Xiao'e, according to the old rules of the city, a married daughter cannot sleep at her parents' house for the first month. It's not that I'm cruel, but from now on, you can go home anytime during the day, and at night, you and Zhuzi can go back to the courtyard to sleep, okay?"
Lou Xiao'e was well-educated and well-educated. Although she was not used to living in the courtyard, she nodded and agreed as soon as Lou Tan said so. With Lou Tan's advice, although Lou Xiao'e liked to go to Lou's house during the day, she would still follow He Yuzhu back to the courtyard to sleep every day.
He Yuzhu is not like in his previous life, when he attached great importance to the things in the courtyard and had to tie Lou Xiao'e to the courtyard. In this life, he only wants Lou Xiao'e to live happily and carefree, doing what she likes. After so many years of wandering around, He Yuzhu deeply realized that the success of a man is not measured by his wealth and power, but by whether he can make his woman and children live comfortably.
By the way, Xu Damao was only 1-2 years younger than He Yuzhu. In fact, he had reached the marriageable age a long time ago. However, his father Xu Fugui and his mother Xiao Ruyu always wanted to find him a city wife from the old city, preferably a worker.
Sijiu City is so small, and Xu Damao has been injured since childhood. There are people around the courtyard who don't know Xu Damao's situation. In the past few years, Xu Fugui and Xiao Ruyu have arranged many blind dates for Xu Damao. When they heard that Xu Damao was a movie projectionist in a steel mill, they had many opportunities to go to the countryside to earn extra money. Whether it was his parents or the girls, no one was unmoved on the spot, but when it came to the time of the engagement, no one did not find an excuse to object.
"Parents' hearts are pitiful." Ask yourself, which parent does not value their children's marriage? After they meet, parents will go around the courtyard to ask around to see if what the Xu family said is true. It would be fine if they didn't ask, but once they did, no family would not be shocked. Now is a new society. As long as you can endure hardships in the city, you won't be unable to survive like in the old society. Therefore, those families, whether rich or poor, are unwilling to push their good girls into Xu Damao's fire pit.
Xu Damao lived in half of the main house of the courtyard, but it was not far from the east wing of the backyard. Before He Yuzhu got married, he didn't feel anything. But after He Yuzhu got married, the sound of people reciting the ancient poem "Ode to the Goose" and the laughter coming from the backyard were so stimulating that he couldn't bear it.
Yes, Xu Damao, who had never been interested in women, wanted to get married. He was also aware of his situation and knew that his parents had helped him for so many years, but no girl in Sijiucheng was willing to marry him. As smart as Xu Damao was, he set his sights on those remote towns and villages on the outskirts of Sijiucheng. He had an idea in his mind. He, who originally disliked going to remote places, would rush to go there whenever he had the chance.
As the saying goes, “hard work pays off.” That day, he rode his second-hand bicycle, carrying a small generator, movie projection equipment, etc., and leisurely went to a commune with mountains, water and plains on the outskirts of Sijiu City.
Xu Damao arrived at the location where the movie was being shown. He set up the projection equipment on the threshing ground of the local brigade as usual. At this time, the village seemed particularly warm and peaceful in the afterglow of the setting sun, as if it was a fairyland on earth. Among the onlookers, Xu Damao found a girl who looked like she had walked out of a painting. Her skin was not white, and she was wearing a well-tailored navy blue Lenin suit with a large braid down to her waist...
Xu Damao was stunned, and secretly warned himself in his heart, "This girl is really good, I must find a way to coax her and marry her home as my sister, bah, bah... as my wife."
Xu Damao was still smart. He invited the girl over under the pretext that he needed help to debug the projection equipment. After the movie started, he didn't let her go. He let her sit next to him to watch the movie. He stopped reading the narration to the audience and patiently explained the story to the girl sitting next to him.
At that time, the social status of film projectionists was not low. After the movie "Breaking Through the Darkness" was finished, the girl was moved by Xu Damao's attentive and diligent behavior. Naturally, she became familiar with Xu Damao and took the initiative to help Xu Damao pack up the projection equipment.
On the way to the temporary residence arranged by the brigade, Xu Damao took the initiative to strike up a conversation: "Girl, my name is Xu Damao, I live in Sijiucheng, and I work as a film projectionist at the Red Star Steel Rolling Mill. My monthly salary is nearly 40 yuan. There are always a few days every month when I go to the countryside to show movies, and I earn a lot of extra money..."
The girl blushed when she heard Xu Damao introduce himself. She introduced herself in detail, so out of politeness, she also introduced herself seriously: "Master Xu, my name is Ji Yun, I am 18 years old, my father is the team leader here, and I have two older brothers."
After all, it was the first day they met, so Xu Damao didn't dare to say much. After inviting Ji Yun to come back tomorrow to help him show the movie, he told her: Go home quickly, be careful on the road and walk slowly. Xu Damao watched Ji Yun go away. Looking at her graceful figure, he showed a jealous look and said unconvincedly, "Is it great to walk like that? I, Xu Damao, can do it too." Xu Damao thought to himself, and unconsciously imitated Ji Yun and walked.
The next day, Ji Yun arrived at the movie screening early and helped Xu Damao to set up the equipment and debug it. When the movie "Railway Guerrillas" was over, they became more familiar with each other. On the way back, Xu Damao spoke first: "Ji Yun, I am 20 years old this year, and I want to marry a beautiful girl like you in my life..."
The farthest place Ji Yun had been was to the market in town. She had not been to the city yet. Besides, the young men in the village were not as bold as Xu Damao. She was frightened and her face turned red. She shyly replied, "What's so good about me? I'm just a country girl who knows nothing."
"Wow, you don't know anything? It's good that you don't know anything! I, Xu Damao, just want to find someone who knows nothing..." Xu Damao thought happily in his heart, but he didn't agree with it: "What's wrong with farmers? Now it's a new society, who would look down on workers and farmers? Ji Yun, do you have a partner?"
"Master Xu, many families have come to my house to propose marriage, but I haven't found anyone I like yet." Ji Yun lowered her head and answered shyly.
"Ji Yun, that's such a coincidence, I don't have a girlfriend either! To prove that what I said before was not a lie, why don't you consider me!" Xu Damao confessed casually.
After Xu Damao finished speaking, the scene suddenly became quiet. At this moment, there were only the sounds of small rural animals and wheat waves being blown by the wind... In the end, it was Xu Damao who broke the silence. He comforted her in a nonchalant tone: "Ji Yun, I'm just suggesting it, don't take it to heart. Tomorrow is the last movie I'll show at your place, so I'd like to trouble you to help me."
Xu Damao watched Ji Yun go away, feeling uncertain in his heart, "I wonder if Ji Yun will show up tomorrow?" That night, Xu Damao didn't sleep well at all. Sometimes he could see Ji Yun, and sometimes he could hear the annoying sound of "Ode to the Goose" in the courtyard...
What surprised Xu Damao was that Ji Yun, who was scared last night, actually came today. As the movie "Mulan" ended, the crowd gradually dispersed. Ji Yun seemed to be infected by the plot of the movie "Mulan". She blushed, mustered up her courage, looked directly at Xu Damao, and asked seriously: "Master Xu, if I go with you to the Forbidden City and become your wife, will you be loyal to me for the rest of my life?"
Happiness came so suddenly. Hearing this, Xu Damao excitedly shouted to the wheat waves: "Ji Yun, if you marry me, I, Xu Damao, will treat you well for the rest of my life..."
