Siheyuan: Starting to work in the street office

Song Jiabao is behind Zhong Haiyan. He is over 1 meters tall, which is considered tall in this era. He is fair-skinned. Zhong Shan heard from Zhong Dahai that Song Jiabao's family background was a bit problematic, so he must have not suffered hardship since childhood. (Song Jiabao is not small, nor dark-skinned)

"Sister, brother-in-law, welcome to Sijiu City. You must be exhausted after sitting on the train for so long. Let's go home first."

Zhong Haiyan looked at the person who was speaking and said cheerfully, "Oh, you are Zhong Shan. You really look like him. With those thick eyebrows and big eyes, you can tell at a glance that he is from the Zhong family."

After listening to his wife, Song Jiabao also spoke up: "Yes, we are a family. My brother is right. Let's go back quickly. I'm exhausted from sitting on the train these two days. Let's talk about it when we get home."

There were no trams at this time, so Zhong Shan and Zhong Dahai came by bicycle and gave one of their bicycles to Zhong Haiyan and her husband.

Song Jiabao rode a bike and carried Zhong Haiyan, Zhong Dahai carried Zhong Shan, and the luggage was placed on the beam, one person on each bike. Zhong Dahai was in front, and Song Jiabao followed Zhong Dahai on his bike. They all rode towards Nanluoguxiang.

Don't think this is shabby, this is already quite luxurious. For an average family, riding two bicycles is only done when they get married.

Zhong Dahai and Zhong Shan were in the front, while Zhong Haiyan and Song Jiabao were behind, following their younger brother while looking at the scenery along the way. This was where they would live in the future.

Leaving our hometown and coming to Beijing, everything is completely unfamiliar to us. Fortunately, my younger brother is here, otherwise the couple who have never traveled far away would be completely in the dark and really don’t know how to live.

After arriving at Nanluoguxiang, Zhong Dahai led the two into the yard. When passing the front yard, Zhong Dahai introduced: "This is Zhong Shan's home. My home is in the backyard. After we settle down, it won't be far to visit each other."

Mr. and Mrs. Zhong Haiyan were also quite curious about the ancient courtyard house, but of course they were just curious. The Zhong family was not bad, as his father was a section chief. As for the Song family, Song Jiabao's family was not bad either. If he had not been born in this era, he would also be a rich second generation.

So I was just curious about the compound.

After walking through the front yard and arriving at the middle yard, Yi Zhonghai and He Yuzhu were sitting at the door.

Yi Zhonghai originally didn't know that elder sister Zhong Dahai was coming, but He Yuzhu knew. The two brothers Zhong Shan and Zhong Dahai went to the station, and Song Lili's cooking skills were average, so she could only ask He Yuzhu to cook a table of dishes to welcome the two of them.

After cooking, He Yuzhu returned to the central courtyard and chatted with Yi Zhonghai at the door. Then he told him about the relatives coming to Zhong Dahai's house in the backyard.

"Zhongshan, Dahai, they are here to pick someone up."

Yi Zhonghai and He Yuzhu were chatting. When they saw the few people coming back, they greeted them.

Yi Zhonghai is quite satisfied with his current life. He Yuzhu is married and Qin Jingru treats them well. From now on, he doesn't have to worry about his retirement.

"Uncle, you are talking here. Have you eaten yet? Let's go to the backyard and have a bite."

When Zhong Dahai saw that it was Yi Zhonghai, although he had not experienced what happened in the yard before, everyone in the yard called him "Uncle", so he followed suit.

After he came, Jia Zhangshi, Xu Damao, Liu Haizhong and Han Yang were gone. There was only Yi Zhonghai who had been cleansed and Qin Huairu who was no longer oppressed by her evil mother-in-law. The only family with problems, the Yan family, was still in the front yard, quite far away from him.

In Zhong Dahai's eyes, this courtyard is a harmonious courtyard. The neighbors are united and friendly, helping each other. The elders are kind and the younger ones are cute. He likes it here very much.

"Hey, you guys eat, I've already eaten, go back quickly, the food is ready."

After Zhong Shan greeted Yi Zhonghai and He Yuzhu, they came to Zhong Dahai's house.

Song Lili and Qin Jingru were chatting at the door, while the dishes prepared by He Yuzhu were already placed on the table.

After seeing the people coming back, Qin Jingru said to Song Lili: "Lili, the people are back, I will go back now, we will talk about it tomorrow!"

"Okay, see you tomorrow then!"

Qin Jingru is relatively young, so she still calls Zhong Dahai and Zhong Shan "Brother Zhong". Normally, after she married He Yuzhu, who is older, she should have called him sister-in-law, but since she is too young, everyone just calls her by her own name.

"Brother Zhong, you guys are back. Come in and eat. It will get cold soon. I'll go back first."

After Qin Jingru left, several people also entered Zhong Dahai's house. Zhong Shan introduced Song Lili to the two of them:

"Sister, brother-in-law, this is my wife, Song Lili. Lili, this is sister and brother-in-law. Sister and her family just came here and are not familiar with the area. When you are free after get off work, take sister to get familiar with the surroundings."

Zhong Haiyan looked at her younger brother and sister in front of her. Not to mention how beautiful they were, they also had good manners and it was obvious that they had received a very good education. People from big cities were just different.

Before coming here, they also learned about Zhongshan from their father. Although they didn't know much, they had a general idea of ​​it.

Knowing that his uncle had passed away long ago, Zhongshan lived alone in the old city, and he was doing quite well. I heard that he was an official, and his wife was also a daughter of a high-ranking official. It turned out to be true.

Zhong Haiyan was quite a talker. After entering the room, she took Song Lili's hand and started talking. Song Jiabao looked at the table full of dishes. He had not had a good meal during the whole journey, so he wanted to eat a meal right away when he saw the table. However, his wife kept talking non-stop and he couldn't interrupt her.

After seeing the look on his brother-in-law's face, Zhong Dahai couldn't help but smile and said, "Sister, there's still a long way to go. Let's eat first, or it will get cold soon."

Zhong Haiyan then let go of Song Lili: "Da Hai, my younger brother is already married, you should hurry up too, you are not young anymore, you should also find a wife and start a family quickly."

After everyone sat down around the table, Zhong Shan said with a smile: "Big sister, you are right. Big brother really has a girlfriend. Now they are very passionate. I estimate that you will see him get married soon."

Zhong Haiyan had just picked up her chopsticks to eat, but she put them down again when she heard this: "Really? What does a girl do? How long have you been together? Dahai, you are very tight-lipped. You didn't leak a single word."

Zhong Dahai looked at his elder sister helplessly and said, "Sister, let's eat first. We'll talk after dinner."

Seeing his brother-in-law speak, Song Jiabao also echoed: "Yes, yes, let's eat first. Look at the large table of food, it's almost cold."

Zhong Haiyan ignored them: "Hey, there's no need to waste time talking about these two sentences. Eat while talking. What do girls do?"

Zhong Dahai had no choice but to say, "The sister-in-law of Zhong Shan's wife introduced her to me. The girl's name is Feng Yuzhi. She is the younger sister of my sister-in-law's wife. She works in the hospital as a nurse. We just met through a blind date a few days ago. You were in a hurry and had a lot of things to do in Sijiu City. I didn't have time to tell you."
