Siheyuan: The Era of Struggle

Chapter 223

After seeing off Chu Cheng and Li Xia, He Yuanchao returned to the office and didn't have much thought to continue working. Sitting behind his desk, he was thinking about his shameless and boring life in the future, while silently planning the wedding in his heart. Things and banquets, as well as relatives and friends who have not been forgotten.

He Yuanchao was not idle in the next few days. While notifying all the people he wanted to invite, he also did not forget to buy some household items for his home. He used to be single. You can make do with it, but it will be different after you have a wife. Then you have to have a way of living.

When he was busy, He Yuanchao also envied those young people who had their parents to help and worry about things, unlike those who had to work hard and do everything alone. As long as the original owner's parents were still alive, he would probably get married. There is no room for you to interfere in some of the trivial matters. The old man will definitely make arrangements for you.

Time flies, and the new calendar card soon reaches January 28, [-], which is He Yuanchao's wedding day.

It is the first time for two people to get married. It is impossible to not be excited about marrying the woman of your choice. He Yuanchao was lying in bed last night and suffered from insomnia for the first time in this era. If he hadn't forced himself in the end, It's time to go to sleep. This good-for-nothing guy will probably be excited all night.

Opening his eyes, he took out his watch from under the pillow. With the faint luminous hands on the dial, He Yuanchao looked at the time, four thirty-five. Although he had only slept for less than four hours, he still felt energetic.

Pulling the light cord tied to the bedside, he turned on the lights in the room with a 'click' sound. He Yuanchao glanced at the items he had worked so hard to acquire in the past two days, and the corners of his mouth curled up involuntarily. Something will happen in the future. No more thinking about it, the days of holding in the discomfort are gone forever.

Thinking of this, He Yuan stood up from the bed like a carp and quickly started to get dressed.

While He Yuanchao was heating up the water on the stove and just about to get a broom to clean, he vaguely heard a familiar voice coming from outside the courtyard door.

"Second uncle, my brother and sister-in-law and I are here. Open the door quickly."

He raised his hand and looked at the time. It was not yet five o'clock. Why did the stupid couple and the rain come so early? After thinking about it, He Yuanchao put down the broom and opened the door and walked out.

"Second uncle, I guess you must have gotten up early today."

As soon as He Yuanchao opened the door to the courtyard, Silly Zhu's voice sounded like a broken gong. As he spoke, he winked and looked like he had seen through you.

Yu Li rolled her eyes at her husband angrily before saying, "Congratulations, second uncle!"

Seeing that his sister-in-law had finished speaking, He Yuyu also hurriedly interjected: "Yes, second uncle, I am finally no longer the youngest in the He family, and I will finally have younger brothers and sisters. I have been looking forward to this day for a long time."

He Yuanchao glanced sideways at the shameless Silly Zhu and ignored him, "Yu Li, Yu Yu, please go inside to warm up in this cold weather."

As he said that, He Yuanchao, who was smiling, turned sideways and let the two sisters, who were smiling and talking, go into the yard.

When Yu Li and He Yuyu's aunts, who were carrying things, walked into the courtyard, He Yuanchao seemed not to have seen Sha Zhu, so he turned around and walked back behind them. Seeing this, Sha Zhu could only curl his lips. He slammed the courtyard door shut and followed the three people in front of him.

Four people from the He family entered the house, and the two rooms of more than 70 square meters suddenly became lively. Yu Liyue and her sister-in-law entered the house and took off their coats, and then happily started to look around the house.

They started gesticulating and laughing while watching. After the two of them chatted for a while and asked Silly Zhu, who was running around in the room, to cook up the paste, the two sisters rolled up their arms and rolled up their sleeves and got busy. .

The two aunts and sisters had a clear division of labor. One cleaned the house, and the other took out the red paper and started cutting out the "happy" characters. There was not much work to do, and the three of them were so busy that they suddenly had nothing to do. Seeing this scene, Lao He was happy and leisurely, holding his mouth happily at the side like a big shopkeeper throwing away his hands.

They are all people with quick hands and feet. After working for a while, Silly Zhu, under the instruction of Yu Li, started to happily stick the words "happy" around with the glue basin.

People rely on clothes, Buddha relies on gold, and the same goes for the wedding room. After Shazhu glued the happy words inside and outside the room, the atmosphere suddenly became festive.

After gluing all the happy words, Shazhu looked around and then hurried to the table with a slap on his forehead, and carefully took out the rolled couplets from the bag they brought.

"Second uncle, this is a couplet written by Yan Fugui."

"Did you tell him that I was getting married?"

He Yuanchao asked while taking the couplet handed over by Sha Zhu. "No, I said it was a colleague at work who needed to do some work, so I gave him a plate of peanuts in exchange for it."

"Ah."

After hearing Silly Zhu's answer, He Yuanchao responded with satisfaction before opening the couplet and reading it.

The reason why He Yuanchao didn't inform the people in Silhu Siheyuan about his marriage was not because He Yuanchao looked down on them because he was a cadre. The main reason was that he didn't want to have too much involvement with them. Otherwise, those guys would get in trouble. Face.

"The first line: sincerity and purity are good for marriage; the second line: simplicity and unpretentiousness bring more happiness; the horizontal line: like-minded people."

He Yuanchao had just finished reading the wedding couplet written by Yan Fugui when he heard Silly Zhu muttering from the side: "Second uncle, if you don't say a word to them when you get married, let's not talk about the family money first, you are afraid that they will be picky about it behind their backs." you."

"Talk about me, what do you need from me?"

After hearing what Sha Zhu said, He Yuanchao put down the wedding couplet in his hand and said nonchalantly.

"What else can I say, just say that you have become a cadre and have a high opinion of the working people!"

He Yuanchao had thought of this a long time ago. His reputation was getting bigger and bigger these days. If he really had the reputation of looking down on the working people, then He Yuanchao's reputation would be really bad.

He turned to look at Sha Zhu who looked a little anxious, and then looked at Yu Li and He Yuyu's sister-in-law who were listening to their uncle and nephew's conversation. He Yuanchao then smiled and said: "What's the point? Wait until I get married." If you take the time to deliver some candies from house to house, just say that you didn’t prepare a banquet in response to the call.”

"Let me tell you, my second uncle must have thought about it a long time ago, so you don't need to worry about it!"

As soon as He Yuanchao finished speaking, Yu Li, who was putting melon seeds, peanuts, and candies on the plate, took over the words with a smile.

"The old man is talking, why are you, a bitch, interrupting?"

After glaring at his wife in annoyance, Shazhu hurriedly took the paste basin and asked He Yuanchao to follow him to the door to stick the wedding couplets.

Seeing Silly Zhu running away in despair, before He Yuanchao came out of the house with the wedding couplet, Yu Li, He Yuyu and his sister burst into laughter.

"What a coward! Sister-in-law, don't talk to him."

He Yuyu curled his lips disdainfully at the door, then said with a smile.

"Who has the time to talk to him?"

With that said, Yu Li saw that the room was basically in place, and said to He Yuyu: "Yu Yu, you put down the new bedding. Sister-in-law, I'll go to the kitchen to make some porridge or something. I don't know how many people will come in a while. If you haven’t eaten yet, it’s a good idea to have some snacks.”

"Sister-in-law, I think you don't need to be busy anymore. You have your belly ready for big fish and meat."

"It's their business to eat or not, but we can't lose etiquette."

Yu Li replied with a smile, then turned around and left the house. She rolled her eyes and was painting the silly posts on the door frame before heading to the kitchen.

He Yuanchao and Shazhu were clinging to Xi Lian at the door of the courtyard when they heard a sound of brakes coming from outside the door of the courtyard.
