Siheyuan: The Era of Struggle

Chapter 224: Getting married

Hearing the car's brakes early in the morning, He Yuanchao guessed that he was here to attend his wedding. He raised his hand to check the time and walked out of the yard.

Silly Zhu couldn't help but grin when he saw his second uncle, who was always calm, walking out when he heard the sound of the car.

It's not even six o'clock yet. Even if you are in a hurry to have a meal, you won't be able to get in so early. Feeling that He Yuanchao is thinking too much, Shazhu is also thinking about how to tease him when his second uncle comes back later. .

He quickly finished gluing the Xilian in his hand. Before he could see if it was well glued, he heard voices coming from behind the screen wall. Silly Zhu, who was holding a basin of glue, just turned his head to see who was so early. I couldn't wait to have a meal, and saw my second uncle walking in with a smiling woman in her 50s.

Looking at the air of this woman and the soldiers following her, Shazhu could not help but guess that this person might be the daughter-in-law of the old chief of her second uncle. She grinned and showed her big white teeth. Just as she was about to say hello, she heard her second uncle laugh and say : "Come here, Zhuzhu, let me introduce you."

After saying that, he stopped and waited for Silly Zhu to come up to him before he continued: "This is my godmother Liu Lihua that I told you about. Do you want to follow me and call me grandma or do you want to talk to each other?" You can call me whatever you want, anyway, we are all caring for our elders."

After hearing what his second uncle said, Silly Zhu saw the woman named Liu Lihua in front of him who just looked at him with a smile and said nothing, and called "Grandma" sincerely.

After this shout, Shazhu was in a panic. He knew the identity and background of his second uncle, his godmother, and was really afraid that the leader's wife would think that he was a shameless person and would not want to see him.

Fortunately, before he could finish feeling anxious, Liu Lihua smiled and said, "Okay, okay."

Seeing this, Silly Zhu put the mental arithmetic he had mentioned back into his stomach, and said with a busy smile, "Grandma, it's too cold outside this morning, let's hurry inside!"

After saying that, he hurriedly carried the paste basin, hurried back to the door, opened the door, and faced Liu Lihua and the others inside.

It should be said that Sha Zhu definitely has good eyesight. If he hadn't been obsessed with widows and had bad mouth, this boy wouldn't have ended up with a miserable life. Thinking of this, He Yuanchao didn't waste any time, Sha Zhu's As soon as he finished speaking, he continued to greet people in the room.

Several people entered the room, and He Yuanchao solemnly introduced Liu Lihua to Li He Yuyu's aunt and sister-in-law. Everyone chatted and laughed for a while, and then started busy with the wedding again.

Liu Lihua is indeed someone who has been doing organizational work for many years. After entering the room, she glanced briefly and had a general understanding of the preparations for the wedding. After taking off her coat, she immediately took over the various tasks of the 'preparation team'. Regarding this matter, he started to arrange everyone's work in high spirits.

How about having an old man in the family is like having a treasure!With Liu Lihua's overall arrangement, the wedding 'preparatory team', which had not had much to do at first, quickly completed everything. Everyone, look at me and I look at you. In the end, there is nothing to do. We could only gather around the table and have breakfast.

Taking the porridge bowl handed over by Yu Li, Liu Lihua took a small sip and complained to Aunt He Yuyu. The banquet was arranged in a restaurant, which did not give her much room to express herself. After making a few jokes, she Amidst the sound of everyone drinking porridge, they began to explain to He Yuanchao that they would pick up the bride later.

Everyone was having breakfast lively in the house. The neighbors in the courtyard also heard the movement at He Yuanchao's house. When they went out and looked at the happy words on the window and the happy couplets on the door, how could they still not know what was going on? My son, I was so busy that I went back to the house to discuss the charter with my men.

Before He Yuanchao could finish the bowl of porridge, the neighbors in the courtyard began to arrive one after another as the first wave of foreign guests today. Although I heard that Lao He said that there would be no banquet in response to the call, everyone as Since the neighbors were all cadres, they still wanted to show their respect. After saying some congratulations and putting down the money, they left the house one after another.

Looking at the money that the neighbor in the courtyard put on the table, He Yuanchao shook his head helplessly. He just didn't want to be too ostentatious, so he didn't tell everyone. Forget it, prepare two tables at home after the wedding to thank everyone.

"Okay, hurry up and put your thoughts away. Although I know you don't want to trouble everyone, isn't life just about the exchange of favors?"

Liu Lihua glanced at He Yuanchao, who was a little distracted, and put away the one or two yuan from each neighbor's family on the table in front of him, and then said with a smile.

"Yes, second uncle, put it away quickly. At this point, I guess the guests coming to the wedding will be here soon."

After secretly sighing in his heart that the cadres had more money than ordinary people, Shazhu was afraid that He Yuanchao would be embarrassed, so he quickly took over the conversation and reminded his second uncle.After listening to what the two of them said, He Yuanchao stopped writing. He picked up the money on the table and put it into his coat pocket. Just as he opened his mouth to explain something to Silly Zhu, he heard someone in the yard asking a neighbor if there was anything here. Aid Korea's home.

Before everyone sitting there could react, He Yuyu, who was closest to the door, had already stood up and opened the door and said, "Yes, this is He Yuanchao's home."

As soon as He Yuyu finished speaking, everyone in the room heard footsteps walking towards this side, and then a young man in his 20s walked in carrying a red thermos bottle.

"Brother He, congratulations!"

"Happy together, rejoice together."

After responding to what the visitor said, He Yuanchao pointed to the young man with a smile and introduced to everyone in the room: "This is my good buddy Wang Ping'an."

After saying this, he said to Wang Ping'an: "Everyone in the room is my family. You're welcome to Ping'an. Sit down and have a rest. If you haven't had breakfast, drink some porridge to cushion your stomach."

As soon as He Yuanchao's reply fell, everyone in the room began to speak politely. Wang Ping'an smiled and said a few polite words, but it was difficult for him to fight with his four hands. In the end, he was forced to drink a bowl of porridge at the table.

With the arrival of Wang Ping'an, people attending the wedding began to arrive at He Yuanchao's home one after another. After several leaders of the steel rolling mill entered the house together under the leadership of Liang Weimin, all the people invited by Lao He arrived. .

Since it was still early to pick up the bride, everyone was drinking water, smoking cigarettes, and cracking melon seeds and chatting and laughing lively in the room. During this period, Liang Weimin also took the time to secretly ask, "Why didn't you see Minister Chen?" ."

"There is something going on at Minister Chen's unit, so I have to wait until the banquet starts before I can come."

After listening to Liang Weimin's words, He Yuanchao didn't hide anything and told him the answer he got from his godmother Liu Lihua in the morning.

When Liang Weimin heard this, he nodded with envy, "Yes! The director must have a lot to do."

After saying that, he paid a few more questions about the wedding arrangements. Knowing that He Yuanchao was still busy, Liang Weimin stopped asking him to continue chatting and turned to talk to the cadres from the steel factory.

Talking and laughing, time passed quickly, and it was 08:30 in the morning in the blink of an eye. Liu Lihua was worried that she would delay the pick-up time, so as soon as the time came, she hurriedly dressed He Yuanchao in red and green clothes, and finally hung a scarf on his chest. A big red flower.

After He Yuanchao was neatly cleaned up, Liu Lihua took two steps back and looked at it carefully, and then said with a smile: "Okay, hurry up and go to the mother-in-law's house to bring my daughter-in-law back." After that, she took He Yuan with her. Head out the door.

After hearing what Liu Lihua said, although some people were confused, no one would come out to ask when He Yuanchao would have another mother at this time, so everyone followed him out of the courtyard in a lively manner.

Originally, He Yuanchao wanted to drive to pick up the bride, but when he arrived at the door, he saw that in addition to the Jim brought by Liu Lihua, there was also a jeep from the steel rolling mill. Chu Cheng, who was addicted to cars, hurriedly said: "Junior brother, if you can Let’s also drive this jeep to pick up the bride, so that if the woman wants to come and a lot of people come, we won’t be blinded.”

Everyone thought it made sense when they heard it. Liang Weimin knew the thoughts of the Baocheng police and was very considerate. He smiled and agreed with a wave of his hand. When Chu Cheng saw this, he opened the door and got into the cab happily.

He Yuanchao didn't say anything when he saw this, he opened the door happily and got into the gray Jim car, and then the two cars drove out of Chuanban Alley.
