Siheyuan works as a nanny for Shazhu

Chapter 84 It’s settled

He Yuzhu declined, "This is a gift from someone else. I don't want it. We already have everything at home. We can just buy a set of furniture later. You can keep the watch and ticket. You are old enough now. You can use them when you get married."

Jiang Feng said, "You think this is for you, but this is a gift from me for your wedding. It's for my sister-in-law. If you don't want it, prepare the money. If we can agree today, I'll take my sister-in-law to the department store this afternoon to have a look. If there's something suitable, I'll buy it. Don't worry about me. I promise that my wedding will be more splendid than yours."

From the time He Yuzhu met Jiang Feng until now, he just couldn't convince him and put them away. He would ask his boss to get two tickets anyway and save them for Jiang Feng's wedding. Up to now, He Yuzhu's family has all the tickets for sewing machines, radios, bicycles and watches. Although some of them are old, there is also an electric fan. He hasn't bought anything yet, but he will start preparing once the wedding date is set.

Huang Ming walked in from outside, looked at He Yuzhu who looked like a decent person, nodded, then looked at the prepared things, and said nothing. He was probably jealous. Cigarettes and alcohol were okay, but if such a big piece of meat was taken out, who knows how many children would cry with envy. It was right to put it in the bag.

Jiang Feng handed over another bag of White Rabbit, about half a pound, and said, "When we get down, the children at home can each have two. They will make your mouth sweet and I guarantee you will have a smooth day."

He Yuzhu took it and said nothing. Huang Ming saw that the time was almost up and said, "Let's go." Several people walked out of the yard. Someone in the yard also saw He Yuzhu and his friends go out, but since Huang Ming was there, he just greeted them. When they got to the door, the third uncle was standing there watering the flowers. When he saw He Yuzhu and his friends come out, the third uncle stepped forward and asked, "Zhuzi, are you going out? This comrade just said he was looking for you, and I was ready to lead the way."

Huang Ming said, "Thank you, Mr. Yan. I know the place and come here often." He Yuzhu also took out a pack of cigarettes from his pocket and gave them to the third uncle. Huang Ming gave each of them a cigarette and replied, "Yes, I had something to do outside today. Thank you very much, third uncle."

The third uncle took the cigarette, smoothed it, saw that it was a peony, picked it up and put it between his ears, and said to He Yuzhu: "Go and do what you need. If you need help, just tell the third uncle. The third uncle can still do it without any problem."

He Yuzhu said a few polite words, and then they nodded to each other and walked out. Jiang Feng and He Yushui would not go today, mainly to see He Yuzhu. Why did so many people come to your house? It is not fashionable to visit other people's homes casually now. Even if they are relatives, they have to bring their own food.

He Yuzhu tied the things on the back seat of the bicycle and hung the wine on the handlebars. He waved to Jiang Feng and the others, then followed Huang Ming and left.

The two saw He Yuzhu riding out and turned back to the house. He Yushui said worriedly: "Cousin, do you think my silly brother is okay? Can he bring his sister-in-law back today?"

"You are a silly girl who knows nothing. Even if there is no problem, you can't bring your sister-in-law back today. You still have to go to the door to propose marriage. Only after the proposal is made can you get married and then you can bring your sister-in-law back. How can it be done so quickly?"

"I'm not stupid. You touched my head again and my hair is messy." He Yushui chased Jiang Feng with bared teeth and claws. They entered the house. After sitting down, He Yushui sat in the house, blowing the fan, and began to do homework. Jiang Feng took a book in his hand and went to the library again. This time he changed to read books specifically on maintenance. An intermediate level electrician is enough.

Although he was reading a book, he was still staring at the gate of the courtyard. Now he was just one step away from the final goal. Although the system did not issue any more tasks, he was afraid that good things would take time.

These days, Yi Zhonghai goes to and from get off work on time every day, and he has no place to ask where Li Xiaoyan lives. Now he is still on guard against enemy spies and rumors, so he dare not go out and say anything. However, Xu Damao has not been seen in these days. He either goes to the countryside to show movies. Now He Yuzhu no longer bothers Xu Damao, and Xu Damao lives like a transparent person. In addition, he often goes to the countryside, so there is no movement in the courtyard.

But Jiang Feng knew that this was a real villain. As long as you give him a chance, he would still stab He Yuzhu in the back. That was why Jiang Feng had never thought about getting along well with these people for so many years. When his interests conflicted with yours, they would betray you at any time.

Until noon, not many people were seen going out, and those who went out were all ordinary neighbors in the yard. Jiang Feng cooked some dishes at noon and had dinner at home with He Yushui.

Here, He Yuzhu followed Huang Ming, and the two of them came all the way to the place where Li Xiaoyan brought them last time. After entering the alley, they got off the car and pushed it. Huang Ming arrived at the gate of a courtyard. This was a two-entry courtyard, and the area was smaller than that of No. 95. There was a screen wall at the entrance. After passing the screen wall, before he could speak, he saw Aunt Li coming to greet him.

Li Xiaoyan lived in the east wing of the backyard. There were two rooms. At this time, a man and a woman came out of the house. Li Xiaoyan followed behind them. The person who came out spoke first, "This is Director Huang and Zhuzi, right? Come on, come in."

He Yuzhu's face flushed, and he followed Huang Ming in in a daze. When he was asked to sit down, he remembered what he was holding, stood up and said, "Uncle and aunt, this is my first time here, and I don't know what to bring. This is a little gift from me, please accept it."

As soon as He Yuzhu finished speaking, he heard a burst of laughter from the inner room, and also heard a boy inside say: "Why is this guy so stupid? Why did my sister fall for him?" After that, several more voices in the room laughed.

Wang Li smiled helplessly and said, "Yan Zi, why don't you take the things over here." Li Xiaoyan also walked over with a blush on her face, took the bag from He Yuzhu's hand, and carried it into the inner room.

Aunt Li saw that the atmosphere was awkward, so she quickly said, "Zhu Zi, sit down. Let me introduce you. This is my eldest brother Li Fu, and this is my eldest sister-in-law Wang Li. They are Xiaoyan's parents. You called them that just now, so keep calling them that. I am Xiaoyan's aunt..."

At this time, a voice of "Oh, what a big piece of meat" came from the house. Aunt Li was interrupted before she finished her words. Wang Li smiled awkwardly, got up and went into the house. After a while, she heard several "pop" sounds in the house, and then there was no sound in the room. Wang Li walked out with Li Xiaoyan.

Li Xiaoyan smiled at He Yuzhu, and Aunt Li continued, "Xiaoyan has two younger brothers at home. They are in the inner room. We didn't let them out today because we had guests."

He turned around and shouted, "You little bastards, come out and see the people."

The sound of several people talking came from the inner room. Three boys and a little girl came out. Aunt Li introduced them, "These are Xiaoyan's brothers. The older one is Jianguo and the younger one is Jianjun. These two are my son and daughter, Wang Xinming and Wang Xinxin."

"You guys, this is He Yuzhu, your eldest sister's boyfriend. Stay calm and go get someone."

Several children stepped forward and shouted, "Hello, brother-in-law." This sentence made Li Xiaoyan blush with shame. She stood up and ran into the inner room. Aunt Li came up and slapped her: "Why are you calling me brother-in-law? You can't call me brother-in-law before you get married. Just call me Brother Zhuzi."

Several adults were talking and laughing. When He Yuzhu heard the word "brother-in-law", he realized that his mouth was crooked. He quickly took out candy from his pocket and stuffed it directly into the hands of the oldest child: "Hey, you guys too, take these candies and share them with your younger brothers and sisters."

Huang Ming saw this and said to Aunt Li, "Sister Li, why don't you let the children go play so we can talk about things. I think my brother and sister-in-law also have something to ask Zhuzi."

Aunt Li nodded and said to the younger ones, "Okay, go in and play, and go see your sister."

Several people pushed and shoved as they walked in. As soon as they entered, there was another exclamation: "Big White Rabbit." Li Fu and Wang Li also heard it and nodded. At this time, Li Xiaoyan came out again, brought two cups of tea, put them on the table, and sat down next to her mother.

Huang Ming picked up the tea, took a sip, and said to Li Fu and Wang Li: "I brought Zhuzi here today so that you two can see him. Let me first tell you about Zhuzi. His full name is He Yuzhu. He is 50.5 years old this year. He is currently the head chef at the Red Star Steel Rolling Mill, earning yuan a month. His mother has passed away, and his father works in Baocheng for work reasons. He also has a younger sister who is in the first grade of junior high school this year. There are three rooms in our house, and we have two bicycles, so we have no problem with living and transportation."

When the two elders heard the conditions, they were even more satisfied. Such a young chef's salary was almost as high as Xiaoyan's father's. The family had a house and a car. It was just that she would not have the support of her parents after marriage, but it was not a big problem. No one would take care of her. She only had a younger sister, and Xiaoyan said that she was easy to get along with, so there would not be any big problems.

Wang Li whispered something in Li Fu's ear. After listening, Li Fu sat up straight and said, "We as parents don't have any objections. As long as you treat Yan Zi well, that's all."

He Yuzhu heard this and looked at Huang Ming, who gave him an encouraging look. He Yuzhu said, "Uncle and aunt, please rest assured. I promise not to let Xiaoyan suffer any grievances. Xiaoyan will be the head of the family as soon as she comes here. She has the final say on family matters, and I will listen to her."

After hearing this, Li Xiaoyan blushed again. Aunt Li looked at the two of them and said to her eldest brother, "Brother, I think it's okay. Zhuzi is a simple and honest child. Yanzi will definitely not be wronged if she marries him. However, Xiaoyan, auntie still wants to ask you, what do you think?"

Li Xiaoyan blushed. Why did she ask me this question? She still said, "I listen to my parents."

Li Fu listened to his daughter and sister and said, "That's settled. Mother, check on the food preparations. This is the first time that Huang Laodi and Zhuzi are here. I'll have a drink with them."

After hearing this, Wang Li stood up and said, "Yes, yes, look at my memory. The fire is still burning on the stove. Yan Zi, come and help."

The two men hurried to the kitchen. He Yuzhu saw his future mother-in-law and future daughter-in-law leave, so he took out a cigarette from his pocket and handed one to Li Fu first, then to Uncle Huang. He picked up a match, struck it several times before it lit up, and then lit one for Li Fu. Huang Ming shook his hand and lit one for himself. He Yuzhu also lit a cigarette. He was so excited that his hands were shaking. Aunt Li was watching and laughing. It was obvious that it was his first time and she was extremely nervous.
