Golden Color Xiangjiang: A Young Man's Dream in a Siheyuan

With the understanding and support of Uncle Pan and Aunt Liu, Zhou Jin finally felt relieved.

I made arrangements several years in advance, so even if I really flee the city, it will not affect Uncle Pan and Aunt Liu.

By then, I will arrange for the people who remain in Sijiu City to take better care of them and ensure that they can safely spend the turbulent ten years. There shouldn't be any problem.

The days that followed passed quickly. Perhaps because of Director Wang's warning, Zhou Jin rarely heard them talk about the deaf old lady in the courtyard. Instead, they talked more about Sha Zhu.

It is probably because Yi Zhonghai and the deaf old lady are gone, Liu Haizhong and Jia Zhang are still in prison, and Yan Bugui is a guy who can do nothing but take advantage.

So these aunts were not afraid at all and chatted very enthusiastically.

Zhou Jin naturally would not disturb their interest, and quietly walked around them and went home.

Tomorrow is Sunday. Yu Shui and Xin Xin started cleaning the house early this morning and they were very busy.

In order to reward the two little girls, Zhou Jin went to the supply and marketing cooperative and bought them some Daoxiangcun's ox tongue biscuits and date paste cakes.

In fact, Zhou Jin had been cleaning the house since Wednesday. With the help of Grandma Zhao, the house was basically the same as when it was first renovated.

Yu Shui and Xin Xin are now decorating the house according to their preferences. Zhou Jin does not stop them. This is the blessing from the two little girls.

When Zhou Jin returned home with the pastries, the two little girls had almost finished decorating the place.

But they still knew their limits and basically decorated the study and living room. The kitchen and Xinxin's bedroom were also simply decorated, with various small animals cut out of red paper pasted on the doors and walls.

As for Zhou Jin's bedroom, they did not move at all.

Zhou Jin put the pastries on the table and told the two little girls to eat quickly, while he went to the kitchen to cook.

To be honest, Zhou Jin is a little nervous now. He doesn't know whether tomorrow's enlargement can go smoothly or whether there will be any problems.

After all, this was Zhou Jin's first time in more than 40 years of his two lives, and it followed the traditional wedding customs and etiquette of the old city, so he was afraid that something unexpected would happen.

Fortunately, delicious food can eliminate all tension. After lunch, Zhou Jin felt much better.

So he took the suitcase down from the top of the wardrobe, wiped it clean with a wet towel, and waited until it was completely dry.

Zhou Jin then began to put the gifts that he had decided to prepare into the suitcase one by one. After making sure that nothing was left out, he closed the suitcase and placed it at the bedside.

Time passed slowly, like fine sand sliding through your fingertips, leaving no trace, and in the blink of an eye, it was Sunday.

This morning, as soon as it got light, Zhou Jin couldn't wait to get up and sign in as usual.

He quickly washed up, made breakfast, and immediately went to wake Zhou Xin and Yu Shui up to have breakfast.

After breakfast, everyone went back to their rooms to change into new clothes. Zhou Jin changed into a brand new Zhongshan suit and leather shoes, and immediately put on a white shirt. He looked refreshed.

He Yushui changed into a floral dress, wore small leather shoes, and tied her hair up.

Xinxin wore a mini suspender skirt, a white shirt, and small leather shoes. Yu Shui also tied two buns for Xinxin, making her look very cute.

Afterwards, Zhou Jin took the suitcase, pushed the bicycle, and went out with the two little girls.

They needed to go to grandfather's house first, because it was closer to the Lou family mansion, and they had also made an appointment with Director Wang to meet at grandfather's house.

When Zhou Jin and his team appeared in the Intermediate Court, they immediately attracted the attention of everyone in the court. Today was Sunday and people didn't have to go to work. At this time, everyone had just finished breakfast and were strolling outside.

When they saw Zhou Jin's family dressed so formally and carrying a suitcase, they knew it must be something particularly important.

However, since Yi Zhonghai and the others were not in the courtyard, the others naturally did not dare to step forward to ask Zhou Jin.

Before Zhou Jin married Lou Xiao'e, he naturally didn't say much to them.

Just like that, Zhou Jin and his two siblings left the central courtyard under everyone's gaze.

Although these people did not dare to ask Zhou Jin, there were always some who were brave enough, such as Yan Bugui who was guarding the gate now.

Yan Bugui had been waiting at the gate after breakfast in the morning. He just happened to see Zhou Jin and his two siblings, dressed formally and carrying large suitcases. He immediately came up to them with a smile on his face.

"Xiao Zhou, you are dressed so formally, is there something wrong? Do you need our help?"

"I'm fine, Uncle San, you should just watch your door."

Zhou Jin didn't want to dwell on it any longer, and ignored Yan Bugui's chatter. He simply pushed Yan Bugui aside and left the courtyard with Yu Shui and the others.

Yan Bugui was not angry about this, because he knew why Zhou Jin treated him like this.

But he was very curious why Zhou Jin was dressed so formally today. Was he going on a blind date?

Yan Bugui's curiosity was immediately aroused. Since he had a day off today anyway, he decided to go out and take a look. Maybe he could find out Zhou Jin's secret and take advantage of it.

So Yan Bugui immediately called out the third aunt and asked her to watch the gate. Then he hurried out of the gate, looked at Zhou Jin's back and chased after him.

But you can't catch up with the bicycle if you walk, and Yan Bugui doesn't exercise much. He lost sight of Zhou Jin after less than a kilometer.

Yan Bugui really couldn't walk anymore, so he sat on the street to rest for a while before he reluctantly returned to the courtyard.

Zhou Jin was completely unaware of this, as he was almost at his grandfather's house.

Everyone else knew that today was an important day for Zhou Jin, so they all got up early to prepare, and grandpa and grandma also took out the best clothes from the box.

Director Wang had also arrived at Grandpa Jin's house early, waiting for Zhou Jin.

After Zhou Jin arrived, everyone packed up simply and prepared to set off.

Zhou Jin and Director Wang rode their bicycles, took Zhou Xin and Yu Shui with them, and then called a rickshaw for grandpa and grandma, and then went to the Lou Mansion together.

Along the way, everyone was laughing and joking with each other, and the atmosphere was very harmonious.

At the same time, the Lou family also started to get busy early. Although it was just a grand ceremony, it was Xiao'e's important day and the Lou family attached great importance to it.

Because of concerns about lack of manpower, Lou Tan specially invited several aunts who had worked in the Lou family to come and help.

In fact, the Lou family didn't have to prepare much today. They just needed to prepare a sumptuous meal for Zhou Jin and others.

In order to express his appreciation for Zhou Jin, Lou Bancheng also got up early and helped clean up.

On this beautiful morning, everyone welcomes the arrival of the day with joy and anticipation.

The Lou family started preparing the ingredients two days ago, including all kinds of delicacies from land and sea, and rare dishes.

Today, we specially invited the master chef from Emei Restaurant to be the head chef. This master chef is exactly Sha Zhu's master.

It was almost ten o'clock in the morning when Zhou Jin and his group arrived at the gate of Lou's mansion in a mighty manner.

Lou Bancheng had already arranged for someone to wait at the gate. When he saw Zhou Jin and others arriving, he immediately stepped forward to open the gate and warmly welcomed them into the mansion.

Neighbors from all around came to join in the fun. After all, today was the weekend and no one had to go to work.

Everyone is full of curiosity about Lou Bancheng's future son-in-law.

Soon, the area around the Lou family mansion was crowded with people. People were not only curious about the identity of the Lou family's prospective son-in-law, but also full of expectations for the gifts he would bring.

However, everyone could only see Zhou Jin carrying a suitcase and nothing else.

Lou Bancheng couldn't help but worry as he watched the growing crowd of people gathering outside the door.

He knew that this might cause unnecessary trouble, so he quickly stood up and said to the crowd:

"Dear neighbors, I would like to thank you for your concern for my family. However, my son-in-law is here to give me a betrothal gift today, which is a big event for my family. I hope you can give us a quiet environment. I will send wedding candy to our door when the wedding comes. Now everyone can go home. Thank you."

After the onlookers heard what Lou Bancheng said and knew they had seen everything they needed to see, they went back home and went about their own business.

Just like that, the Lou family mansion finally became quiet, and Zhou Jin and the others hurried into the house.

The rest of the story went smoothly. There were no other outsiders in the living room at this time. The aunts and the chef were busy in the kitchen and dining room.

Zhou Jin opened the suitcase and personally handed the clothes and jewelry to Lou Xiaoe in front of everyone.

Lou Bancheng must be very happy to see what Zhou Jin had prepared. After all, the more thorough Zhou Jin's preparations were, the more he valued Xiao'e, which meant that he had not misjudged her.

Since Zhou Jin had no parents, her grandmother put the jade bracelet on Lou Xiao'e's hand instead of her mother, and everyone was happy and peaceful.

The process was completed quickly. Lou Bancheng quickly invited everyone to eat together, while Lou Tan went to the kitchen to notify everyone to serve the dishes.

After a while, the maids that the Lou family had invited to help today came up with the dishes. The various delicious dishes made people salivate.

Lou Bancheng warmly invited everyone to take a seat, and everyone sat together and began to enjoy this sumptuous banquet.

Lou Bancheng personally poured wine for Zhou Jin and said with a smile: "Xiao Zhou, come and try the fine wine collected by our Lou family!" Zhou Jin quickly stood up, respectfully took the wine glass and drank it all.

Afterwards, Lou Bancheng turned to other people and drank with them. The atmosphere was warm and cheerful.

The table was filled with a variety of exquisite dishes, including Kung Pao Chicken, Dry-fried Prawns with Doubanjiang, Boiled Pork, Dry-fried Beef Shreds, Boiled Cabbage, Clay Pot Roasted Soft-shelled Turtle, Sichuan Roast Duck and Emei Old Jar, etc. Every dish was delicious.

Everyone enjoyed the food, chatted and laughed, and shared each other's joy and happiness.
