The Fiery Era of Siheyuan

Chapter 219, Chain Reaction

After the neighbors in the courtyard helped Shazhu and his wife pack up the wedding room, the sky gradually dimmed and everyone dispersed.

The uncle and his wife returned home after delivering their wedding gifts, and they were having dinner at the moment.

Dinner was as simple as ever, a plate of fried cabbage and a plate of pickled cucumbers.

The first man and his wife each ate steamed buns, pretending to be worried, and ate quietly without saying a word the whole time.

While eating, the uncle was thinking about the affairs of Shazhu and his wife, and how to continue to maintain the relationship with Shazhu in the future.

After thinking about it for a long time, he felt as if he had no idea, because he didn't understand Peng Feiyan's temperament at all, and he didn't know whether it was good to fool him or not.

Silly Zhu had never been married before, so it was easy to fool him. From time to time, he could give him some small favors and take ideological and political classes, and he could tie his heart. After all, the righteousness of his elders sometimes works quite well.

But now that he is married, if he wants to tie the silly pillar again, he must not get around his wife. It seems that he still has to find a way to get closer to Peng Feiyan.

Thinking of this, the old man had some idea and relaxed, so he wanted to drink two glasses to relieve his hangover addiction, and then start thinking again.

"Honey, help me get the bottle of powder I bought two days ago."

"Hmph, take it yourself."

The eldest mother snorted, ignored him, and went to eat by herself. She was still angry because of what Xu Damao said at noon.

Yi Zhonghai couldn't help but have a headache when he saw his wife's state.

"Why haven't you finished yet? Didn't I say that, that kid Xu Damao was making a joke. That kid has been a bad seed since he was a child. It's not like you don't know, and you believe what he said?"

The eldest mother said angrily: "There is no smoke without fire. If you don't have that intention, will he come to tease you when he is full?"

"How did I know that? I saw that he was old enough to get married, so I kindly introduced him to the street office, but he turned around and made fun of me. How old am I, and you still don't trust me?"

The first uncle was angry for a while, wishing he could catch Xu Damao and give him a hard time so that he could see how powerful he was.

Today he just urged Xu Damao to make trouble for Shazhu. He didn't know if it would work or not, but he just tried.

Who would have thought that Xu Damao took the wrong medicine and choked him in a weird way when he came back, making him depressed to this day.

The aunt saw that Yi Zhonghai was talking about this, and based on her understanding of his wife, she slowly calmed down, and she didn't hold on anymore, she just muttered a few words, and got up to get him a drink.

Sanbai brought it over, Yi Zhonghai poured himself a full glass, and drank it down in one gulp.

The hot drink flowed down his throat, which immediately shocked him.

After taking two deep breaths, Yi Zhonghai turned to ask: "My wife, you also watched Shazhu's wife just now, how do you feel?"

"It's not bad, looks good, and looks good, but I don't know how it is." The first mother didn't know what he meant, but told the truth.

Yi Zhonghai nodded, and sighed melancholy: "Yeah, I just don't know what my temperament is, and I don't know if I'm filial or not."

The aunt fell silent after hearing his words, and roughly understood what he meant. It was nothing more than a matter of retirement.

Although Jia Dongxu is their first choice for retirement, Shazhu is also a candidate. After so many years of training, they still have some expectations.

"Yanzi, she must be a good girl. She looks very polite. I think the old lady is quite satisfied." The eldest mother was not sure.

"I hope that in the future, you will visit them more often when you have time, chat with them about the family, and help out with anything. You can choose multiple paths, and we can't give up on Shazhu's side."

"Well, I see."

The backyard, the second uncle's house.

The second uncle's family is also having dinner together.

On the table are potatoes stewed with cabbage, large salted radish, and a plate of pimple skin. The staple food is steamed steamed buns with noodles and steamed sweet potatoes.

Liu Haizhong and Liu Guangqi were holding two-faced steamed buns in one hand and potato stewed cabbage in the other, eating slowly.

Liu Guangtian and Liu Guangfu gnawed on sweet potatoes with pickled vegetables and kept silent the whole time, acting as a little transparent with peace of mind.

Although the food quality at the second uncle's house is not as good as before due to the impact of ration reduction and material shortages, the staple food is still relatively sufficient. There are a few pieces of lard residue in the potato stewed cabbage on the table, and there is also some oil and water.

The second aunt rummaged through the dish of stewed cabbage, picked out a piece of lard residue, and gave it to the second uncle, and casually chatted about today's Sha Zhu's marriage.

"Master, what do you think this idiot thinks? He doesn't want to find a good city girl, but he wants to marry a rural girl. Do you think he is crazy? This rural girl has no quota. He Can you feed him?"

The second uncle casually picked up the lard residue and threw it into his mouth. He took another sip of tea and said, "What do you know? Silly Zhu is a cook. He eats for free in the factory at noon every day. There is no need to pay or issue a ticket." , you can save more than 20 meals a month.

In addition, their cooks can occasionally bring back some lunch boxes, and they can earn a lot of extra money and money by hosting banquets for others. It is no problem to support a rural girl. "

When the second aunt heard this, she was filled with envy: "Oh... this cook is really popular. He can eat and drink wherever he goes. Now with the famine, I don't know how many people would die from envy of his work."

The second uncle said disdainfully: "Hey, there is nothing to be envious of, Shazhu, if he is popular, he can be promoted to level 7, no matter how high the factory is, he has no right to decide.

How much does a level 7 cook cost?It’s only 42 yuan. With some subsidies, it’s 46 yuan.How can he compare with our blacksmiths? Our blacksmiths can rise all the way to level eight, and our food ration is much higher than him. "

The second aunt nodded in agreement when she heard the words, and said with a proud smile: "That's right, the head of the family and the eldest are both blacksmiths, and the ration of grain is ten to twenty catties more than theirs, so they must not be able to compare with us. "

Then, the second aunt glanced at her eldest son Liu Guangqi who was immersed in eating. She seemed to have thought of something, so she said, "By the way, head of the house, when it comes to Sha Zhu's marriage, our eldest son has also reached an age. Do you think you can find something for him?" A girl looks at each other?"

When the second uncle heard the second aunt's suggestion, he pondered for a moment and thought it was a good idea.

In the morning, he and Director Wang made a promise that they would send a few young men to the neighborhood committee for a blind date. After discussing with the first and third uncles for a long time, he still had no idea.

Rural girls are easy to marry but not easy to raise. He didn't want to think that in the end he would have to drag his family to work for Director Wang.

After thinking for a moment, the second uncle asked Liu Guangqi: "Boss, what do you think? Why don't you let your mother find a matchmaker to look at your relationship and settle the marriage as soon as possible?"

Liu Guangqi was quite moved when he heard that he was going to marry him a wife.

He is also 20 years old now, just the age when he wants to be a girl. He is also a little envious that Shazhu can marry a beautiful wife.

In addition, living at home was not comfortable, Liu Haizhong beat Liu Guangtian and Liu Guangfu violently at every turn, which made him terrified.

He has always wanted to find an opportunity to move out and live alone with his parents, but he has not been separated from his parents, and he has not been married, so he can only endure it for the time being.

The old Liu family lived in two rooms in the east wing of the backyard, one for Liu Haizhong and his wife, and one for the three brothers. The house was not well-off.

If he could find a girl to marry, wouldn't he have an excuse to move out?

The more Liu Guangqi thought about it, the more he felt that it was feasible, so he quickly nodded and said: "Okay, then I will follow your two arrangements."

Seeing their son nodding, Liu Haizhong and his wife were overjoyed, and they wanted to hug their grandson for a long time. Since the son agreed, they should find a way to implement it as soon as possible.

I don't know if it is difficult for others to find a wife, but their old Liu family has a seventh-level worker and a second-level worker. With such good conditions, it is very easy to find a girl from the city. Lower your status to find a rural girl.

The more Liu Haizhong and his wife thought about it, the more excited they became, and they couldn't care less about eating. They left the bowls and chopsticks and began to discuss which alley and which yard girl is better.
