Siheyuan: Revenge of the Stupid Pillar

He Yuzhu smiled and said, "Old lady, it's not that I don't want to invite you, the key is that your legs and feet are not convenient, I can't do anything!"

The deaf old lady said angrily, "What do you mean you can't do it? Can't you find a cart to take me there, or carry me there on your back?"

"The old lady is right. I didn't think it through!"

Although He Yuzhu said this, he was madly complaining in his heart, "Carry you there? Pull you there on a cart, is that reasonable? Don't I, Director He, have any dignity?"

The deaf old lady glanced at He Yuzhu and said sternly:

"Zhu Zi, although you are going to propose marriage tomorrow, you have not yet obtained the marriage certificate. You must not get carried away and let your guard down, or the bad guys in the courtyard will see through you, otherwise your marriage will be in turmoil again."

He Yuzhu nodded carefully and said in a deep voice: "Don't worry, old lady, I will not let the enemy know that I am dead. As long as we don't get the marriage certificate, I will not leak the news."

Upon hearing this, the deaf old lady said with a look of relief: "Zhu Zi, you have grown up!"

After returning from the deaf old lady's house, He Yuzhu tossed and turned in bed, unable to fall asleep. Could this be what people later called pre-marital anxiety?

After two lives, this was He Yuzhu's first time to propose marriage, and he was a little anxious. He was afraid that his father-in-law and mother-in-law would look down on him, that Xu Damao and others would sabotage him, and that his married life would not be happy...

He Yuzhu held his breath, concentrated, and suppressed all distracting thoughts before he fell asleep with difficulty.

Perhaps because he was worried about tomorrow's events, He Yuzhu woke up at dawn and jumped out of bed.

He Yuzhu first boiled the porridge, and then began to polish the leather shoes. After a while, the pair of leather shoes were polished to a shine, and the shoe surface seemed to reflect the person's shadow.

After polishing his shoes, He Yuzhu started ironing his shirt. Since he didn't have an iron, He Yuzhu had to take an enamel basin, pour boiling water into it, and carefully iron the shirt with the bottom of the enamel basin until there was not a single wrinkle on it...

After a busy day, the red bean porridge was ready. He Yuzhu first brought a bowl to the deaf old lady, and then went home for breakfast.

After finishing breakfast, He Yuzhu began to dress up, applying vanishing cream on his face and making his hair shiny and sleek…

About half an hour later, He Yuzhu came out looking brand new.

He Yuzhu was pushing the cart past the front yard. Yan Bugui saw He Yuzhu's attire and his expression froze for a moment before he smiled and said:

"Zhu Zi, you are dressed so nicely today, are you going on a blind date?"

He Yuzhu didn't even raise his eyelids, and said indifferently: "It's none of your business!"

"you…"

Yan Bugui was immediately furious.

He Yuzhu ignored Yan Bugui, pushed his bicycle out of the courtyard, got on the bicycle, and sped away.

Yan Bugui shouted, "Yan Jiefang, come out quickly!"

Yan Jiefang walked out of the room and asked with a puzzled look on his face: "Dad, what's the matter?"

Yan Bugui said urgently, "Jiefang, quickly catch up with Shazhu and see who he is dating."

Yan Jiefang said dissatisfiedly: "Dad, I haven't eaten yet?"

Yan Bugui casually took out fifty cents from his pocket and handed it to Yan Jiefang, and hurriedly said:

"You can eat outside today, but you must find out who Shazhu is dating and come back to tell me!"

Yan Jiefang took the fifty cents with great excitement, and said confidently, "Dad, don't worry, I will investigate Sha Zhu's blind date thoroughly."

"Stop talking nonsense and go chase Shazhu, or you won't be able to catch him. That bastard is riding a bicycle!"

"Okay! I'll go after him now!"

After Yan Jiefang finished speaking, he ran out of the courtyard.

Yan Bugui looked at Yan Jiefang's back as he chased after him, his eyes vicious. Ever since Sha Zhu had ruined his reputation, he had secretly vowed to make the other party childless, so he would never let He Yuzhu get married.

Yan Bugui pondered for a moment, then turned and walked towards Yi Zhonghai's house.

After a month of rest, Yi Zhonghai's hands and feet have almost recovered, but his head still aches sometimes.

The Yi Zhonghai old couple were having dinner in the living room when there was a sudden knock on the door.

"Bump bump..."

"Old Yi, open the door quickly!"

Yi Zhonghai frowned slightly, pondered for a moment, and finally opened the door.

"Old Yan, you are knocking on the door so anxiously at eight in the morning. What's the matter?"

Yan Bugui ignored Yi Zhonghai's displeasure and asked impatiently, "Old Yi, is Shazhu going on a blind date again?"

Upon hearing this, Yi Zhonghai's face suddenly changed, and he said in disbelief: "Old Yan, are you mistaken? Sha Zhu wants to go on a blind date, why haven't I received any news at all?"

Yan Bugui said unhappily, "Although we call him Shazhu, he is not really a fool. His last blind date was ruined, so why would he let everyone know about this blind date?"

"Shazhu said he might not have a girlfriend already. He might go out today to propose marriage or even to get a marriage certificate."

Upon hearing this, Yi Zhonghai's pupils trembled and he said anxiously, "Then what are you waiting for? Let's go after him!"

If Sha Zhu gets married, his plan of having his wife support him will be completely ruined. At this moment, Yi Zhonghai is more anxious than anyone else.

Yan Bugui rolled his eyes and pursed his lips and said, "Shazhu is riding a bicycle. How can we, with our old arms and legs, catch up with him?"

"Let's take a step back and say, even if we catch up, what can we do?"

"Shazhu is no longer the same Shazhu as before. He won't listen to anything we say!"

"Not only will he not listen, he might even accuse us of ruining his marriage and slap us in the face!"

The more Yi Zhonghai listened, the more solemn his expression became, because he knew that what Yan Bugui said was true. Sha Zhu now ignored him completely, and it would be of no use even if they caught up with him.

Yi Zhonghai paced back and forth anxiously, looking unwilling and said, "Is there really nothing we can do about Sha Zhu?"

Yan Bugui said quietly, "If Shazhu is going to get a marriage certificate, then we really have no choice."

"If Sha Zhu is just going on a blind date or proposing marriage, then we still have room for maneuver. The most important thing now is to know how far Sha Zhu and the girl have developed!"

Yi Zhonghai looked worried and said irritably, "Old Yan, even if what you said makes sense, Sha Zhu is deliberately hiding something, so we can't understand his situation at all."

Yan Bugui grinned and said, "Don't worry, Lao Yi. I have asked Jiefang to catch up with Shazhu. I believe he will bring us good news!"

Yi Zhonghai was delighted when he heard this, but then he blamed him: "Old Yan, why didn't you tell me earlier? You made me so anxious!"

Yan Bugui smiled and said, "It's not too late to tell me now!"

Li Guixiang suddenly said, "Old Yan, Old Yi, you can invite Xu Damao and Qin Huairu as well. They don't want to see Sha Zhu get married either. You have the same goal, so you can definitely cooperate!"

Yan Bugui's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he praised, "My sister-in-law is really far-sighted. As the saying goes, three cobblers are better than Zhuge Liang. With so many of us putting our heads together, I don't believe we can't deal with a fool."
