Siheyuan: The Qing Dynasty is back

Chapter 74 After Marriage

The busy wedding is over.

In the evening, Shazhu heated up the leftovers from lunch and cooked two more dishes. It was also a hearty dinner.

It was the first time that Yu Li faced Sha Zhu's family alone, and she seemed a little restrained.

Chen Xueru said as she picked up some food for her: "Yu Li, we are a family from now on, so don't be so restrained. If Zhuzi doesn't listen, you can punish him. Our whole family supports you."

Yu Li glanced at Sha Zhu with pride and said, "Thank you, Mom."

Sha Zhu also said aggrievedly: "How dare I disobey? I am the most obedient one in the family. I dare not even refute Yu Shui's words. My new radio is still with her."

Yu Shui immediately retorted: "You gave it to me voluntarily, but I didn't ask for it. Isn't that right, sister-in-law?"

As everyone chatted, the atmosphere became more relaxed, and Yu Li gradually relaxed a little.

"Yeah, I know that. Rainwater is the best!"

He Yushui said proudly: "See, my sister-in-law said I am the best behaved."

Sha Zhu looked at Yu Shui's smug expression and could only swallow his bitterness, not daring to say anything.

He Daqing said while eating: "Zhu Zi, you are married now. I can still earn money now, and my family doesn't need any subsidy from you. You can just keep the money you earn."

After thinking for a while, he said, "You should give it all to Yu Li to keep. I don't think you can save money."

"Yu Li, keep all of Zhuzi's money from now on. Don't spend it recklessly on him. Just give him a few dollars a month for pocket money."

After hearing this, Sha Zhu wanted to say something, but after thinking about what he had done in the past, he shut up.

Yu Li nodded and said, "I understand, Dad. I will look after Brother Zhuzi."

It was a harmonious and warm meal.

After dinner, Yu Li and Sha Zhu cleaned up together.

Chen Xueru continued to urge Yushui to do her homework. Yushui would take the high school entrance exam next year. Now she had no worries about food and drink, and someone took good care of her every day.

So her goal was to get into a technical secondary school, to bring honor to her family and to produce a educated person.

Finally, all the work is done, and the next step is to enter the part that Sha Zhu is most looking forward to - entering the bridal chamber.

In the clean and tidy room, Yu Li sat on the kang feeling a little uneasy.

At this moment, Shazhu is like a dog biting a hedgehog - he doesn't know where to start.

After all, it was his first time, and he just knew that he could have his wedding night with his wife, but he didn't know where to start.

Yu Li was originally nervous, but when she saw that Sha Zhu was even more nervous than her, she suddenly felt that this man was really silly and cute.

So she took off her coat and got into the new bed, blinking at Shazhu.

When Sha Zhu saw that his wife had taken the initiative, he quickly took off his coat and got into bed with a silly grin on his face.

He excitedly reached out and hugged Yu Li.

"Wife, you are so beautiful!"

"Silly!"

Yu Li said softly shyly and quickly covered her face with the quilt.

Shazhu couldn't stand it anymore and crawled into bed as well.

Yu Li stopped him and said, "Brother Zhuzi, the lights are not turned off yet!"

After hearing this, Sha Zhu got up in a hurry and turned off the light, then fumbled back into bed.

Next, the two of them seriously studied the meaning of life overnight.

Sha Zhu finally got to eat the legendary swan meat.

The next day, Yu Li, with a red face, chased Sha Zhu away. Otherwise, this guy would have stayed in bed all day.

Shazhu also got up refreshed and made breakfast.

While doing it, he looked at Yu Li who was helping him and grinned foolishly. Yu Li rolled her eyes at him in anger.

"Just cook your meal, why are you grinning like an idiot?"

"Wife, I find that you are getting more and more beautiful. I like you more and more no matter how I look at you."

Sha Zhu has tasted the sweetness and his eloquence has become more fluent.

Yu Li blushed at what he said and glared at Sha Zhu.

"Glib tongue!"

After a warm breakfast, He Daqing and Sha Zhu went to work, and He Yushui also went to school.

Only Yu Li and Chen Xueru were left at home.

After cleaning the house, Chen Xueru took Yu Li with her to make clothes for the family. Anyway, there was a lot of fabric at home, enough to make several new sets of clothes for everyone.

When Sha Zhu arrived at the kitchen, he took out the candies he had prepared long ago and gave each of the people two pieces of candy.

Now that He Daqing is in charge of Sha Zhu, he doesn't dare to act tyrannically in the kitchen anymore. Everyone's attitude towards him has also gradually changed a lot.

Everyone who got the candy enthusiastically congratulated Sha Zhu.

There were also a few peers of similar age who teased Shazhu.

"Zhu Zi, are your legs and feet going to feel weak today? Can you not flip the pot?"

"Don't worry, with Master He's physique, he will have to fight seven times in one night, right?"

Sha Zhu also laughed and scolded happily: "Go away, you frivolous guys. Don't teach those single young people bad lessons."

An unmarried guy nearby shouted, "No, keep talking, I'm enjoying it!"

Suddenly everyone in the kitchen burst into laughter.

At this time, Director Huang also came.

"What are you doing that makes you so happy?"

Someone commented: "Director Huang, isn't it true that Master Xiao He is getting married? We are all joking."

Director Huang also saw Sha Zhu who was surrounded by everyone.

Since He Daqing came, Director Huang has really felt more relaxed.

In the past, Sha Zhu always opposed me and didn't listen to my arrangements. Now, Sha Zhu was beaten like a cat by He Daqing. He no longer dared to argue with me.

"Zhu Zi, how is it? Do you know the benefits of having a wife?"

When Sha Zhu saw that it was Director Huang, he smiled and took out two candies and gave him two.

"Director Huang, you are such a frivolous leader, are you here to make fun of me?"

Director Huang patted Sha Zhu on the shoulder and said, "Now that you are married, you must work hard. The responsibilities on your shoulders will become heavier and heavier in the future."

"Okay, joking aside, let's get back to work. We can't delay the workers' lunch."

After Director Huang left, everyone got down to work for the day.

Only Sha Zhu was working, thinking about what his little wife was doing at home? Was she thinking about herself?

He Daqing's current job is simple and comfortable. He just cooks lunch for three experts every day. The rest of the time he either reads newspapers or drinks tea in the office.

But from what they said in the past few days, it seems that the guidance work of these experts is coming to an end. It is estimated that it will be finished before the end of the year.

After all, it is not just the steel mills that are facing this problem. Other places are also waiting for these foreign experts to come and provide guidance.

He Daqing didn't know what area he would be responsible for after these experts left.

After thinking about it, I decided to wait for the leader to make the decision.

In the afternoon, after a day of anxious waiting, Sha Zhu rode his bicycle home as soon as it was time to get off work. He didn't even wait for He Daqing.

This made He Daqing so angry that he really forgot about his father after getting a wife!

When He Daqing returned home, Sha Zhu and Yu Li were already cooking dinner in the kitchen.

Chen Xueru was watching He Yushui doing homework when she saw He Daqing coming back with a gloomy face. She asked in confusion, "Daqing, what's wrong?"

He Daqing snorted coldly, picked up the cup and drank the tea in one breath.

"It's nothing. I met a dog on the road and threw a piece of meat to it. But it took the meat in its mouth and ran away without paying any attention to me."

Yu Shui stopped writing, looked at He Daqing and asked innocently, "Dad, how could you feed the meat to the dog? It's better to feed it to my brother than to the dog!"

He Daqing said angrily: "Your brother might be worse than that dog!"

Chen Xueru has also realized it now. It is probably Sha Zhu who has made He Daqing angry again.

"Okay, Zhuzi and Yu Li are cooking at home, so please stop talking."

"Yushui, you too, now that your brother is married, you should stop bullying him. Otherwise, your sister-in-law will punish you and I won't help you."

After hearing this, Yu Shui stuck out her tongue, then lowered her head and continued doing her homework.

He Daqing also lost his temper after being scolded by Chen Xueru.

Chen Xueru found it a little funny. This man was like a child sometimes. He still needed a woman to coax him.

After dinner, Sha Zhu and Yu Li returned to the house.

Sha Zhu proudly took out all the money he had saved and handed the box containing the money to Yu Li as if she were offering a treasure.

Yu Li opened the box and found some small and large bills in it. After counting, she found there was about a hundred yuan.

Sha Zhu said embarrassedly: "Wife, it was originally more than 300. But some time ago I bought a bicycle and a radio for Yu Shui."

"Add to that all the wedding expenses, and this is all I have."

"I saved this money because my salary increased to 50 yuan in the past two months. But don't worry, we will basically have no expenses in the future. I only make more than 50 yuan a month, so I can save money quickly if I want."

Yu Li put the money away and asked, "Brother Zhuzi, how come you have only saved more than 300 yuan after working for so many years? You spend money too lavishly, don't you? No wonder our dad doesn't let you keep the money."

Yu Li's words left Sha Zhu at a loss for words.

After thinking about it, I decided that if I didn't explain it, Yu Li would probably find out about it in the future.

So Sha Zhu scratched his hair and said unnaturally: "Wife, I told you not to be angry."

Yu Li looked at Sha Zhu in confusion and said, "What's wrong? Why am I angry?"

Seeing that Yu Li didn't look like she would hit him, Sha Zhu gritted his teeth and told her how Yi Zhonghai and Qin Huairu had tricked him into lending Qin Huairu three or four hundred yuan.

After hearing this, Yu Li was so angry that she grabbed Sha Zhu's ears and twisted them hard.

The fool was in so much pain that he kept yelling, "Wife! Wife! Be gentle! It hurts!"

Yu Li twisted her head and cursed, "Tell me, do you have any feelings for her? How far have you two come?"

Sha Zhu quickly explained: "Wife, I really didn't. Qin Huairu has long been married to Xu Damao's grandson. We have nothing to do with each other."

"I just felt sorry for her family at that time, and I was fooled by Yi Zhonghai. I swear, there is really nothing between me and her."

Seeing Sha Zhu's confident words and considering his performance last night, Yu Li also believed it.

However, even though I believe Sha Zhu, it doesn't mean that the matter is over.

No one dares to owe Yu Li any debt.
