The Great Era of Siheyuan

The next morning, Li Wenqiang got up in high spirits. Today was a wonderful day. He would first deliver food to the tavern, and then go to the Beimo Factory to get the purchase certificate, motorcycle driver's license and vehicle registration.

His wife was still sleeping. After yesterday's strengthening, he was like a superman and was tireless. Liu Yuhua had suffered a lot. He probably didn't have the energy to go to work this morning. It was good like this. It was also nice to read a book at home.

When Li Wenqiang walked out of the yard, many people looked at him differently and greeted him enthusiastically.

"Li Wenqiang, why did you get up so early today? You've really changed since you were young. You've become more diligent after getting married!"

The second uncle saw him and greeted him with a smile.

The second uncle usually asked his family to fetch water for him to wash in the backyard in advance, but I don’t know why he came to the pool today.

"Good morning, Uncle. Isn't it quite early? Why are you here to wash up today? Are you here to look for Qin Huairu?"

After saying this, Li Wenqiang looked at him curiously.

Speaking of which, it seems that I have been trapped in this job of delivering food to the tavern. My originally leisurely life has ended up feeling like I am working.

Liu Haizhong was stunned by Li Wenqiang's words, his face was a little stiff and he felt a little guilty.

"Nonsense, why would I look for her? I just suddenly wanted to come over here to get some water. Why can't I come to the middle courtyard?"

The second uncle looked at him in pretended anger.

"How can that be possible? You are being too serious. This yard belongs to all of us. How could I not let you come? I am just curious. Yesterday, Second Aunt said that she wanted Guangtian to marry Qin Huairu. Second Uncle, tell me what you think. Are you satisfied?"

Li Wenqiang looked at him jokingly. This old man couldn't hide the cunning in his heart or the things on his face, and he still wanted to lie. His eyes always looked towards the Jia family from time to time, and it was obvious that he wanted to come to find Qin Huairu.

But Qin Huairu was so smart. After experiencing what happened yesterday and seeing so many people having feelings for her, she simply hid in the house and didn't go out.

"Qin Huairu is a good girl. It's normal for your second aunt to like her. If she agrees, I have no objection. But these things still depend on what the young people say. My opinion doesn't count. You can't force me to get married like Old Yan, right?"

The second uncle deliberately raised his voice so that Qin Huairu in the room could hear it, telling her that the Yan family was not her only choice, there was a better one here!

"Then I wish you success!"

Li Wenqiang smiled, wiped his face and left.

Qin Huairu sat in the house, holding Huaihua carefully. Being so close, she naturally heard what the second uncle said, but there was no expression on her face.

After her mother-in-law left, she felt how much easier her life was, as if a huge burden had been lifted off her shoulders. Although the family didn't have much money and food, they were still a little better off with a few adults missing.

The food that could have lasted a month can now last at least a month and a half. She has raised all the children in the family to be plump and white. She has no intention of getting married in the short term. In two months, she will be able to go to work. She believes that with her own efforts, there is no need to get married.

"Humph!"

Sha Zhu limped out of the house, glanced at the second uncle with a gloomy face, and then glanced at Li Wenqiang. After a few days of recovery, he could walk slowly without the help of crutches.

Qin Huairu could hear it, so he could hear it too. He also knew what the second uncle was planning. He was just like the third uncle, and he also had a crush on Qin Huairu. So he would not treat him well.

Now in Sha Zhu's heart, the second uncle and the third uncle's family have become more annoying than Li Wenqiang.

He and Li Wenqiang had only some verbal quarrels and physical fights, but these two and others came for his beloved Sister Qin. Knowing that he liked Qin Huairu, these two still dared to set their sights on Qin Huairu. Aren't they just looking for trouble?

The neighbors around were all laughing secretly when watching this scene. In fact, everyone understood their little thoughts, but some people just didn't say them out.

"Zhu Zi, come and have breakfast! Your godmother has already prepared it. After we finish eating, we will go to work together!"

Yi Zhonghai stood on the steps in front of his house and waved to Sha Zhu with a happy smile on his face.

"Hey! Here it comes!"

When Sha Zhu heard the voice, the gloom on his face immediately disappeared and he smiled.

Since the two of them became godparents, the couple's mental outlook has improved a lot. Unlike before, although they had everything they needed in life, they always had a lifeless and depressed look on their faces. Now their faces seem to be full of sunshine.

"Zhu Zi, come here and make some millet porridge for you! I also added some salt and vegetables to it, how about you try it!"

When an old lady saw Sha Zhu, she immediately happily took his hand and walked towards home.

"Hey, slow down! Slow down, I'll do it myself. Be careful with the door sill, don't fall!"

Sha Zhu felt warm in his heart when he was held by an old lady.

"It's okay. Your godfather and I have lived in this house for decades. We can walk around with our eyes closed. Try this porridge and see if it tastes good!"

An old lady brought over a bowl of vegetable porridge, her eyes narrowed into slits due to the smile on her face.

Although Shazhu was not her biological son, she had raised him since he was a child. His mother died early due to complications during childbirth, and she had been taking care of them all along. The two siblings were almost like her own children, except that they were not related by blood.

"Thank you, godmother. I know it's delicious just by smelling it. The food godmother cooks is definitely amazing!"

After taking the porridge, Sha Zhu gave exaggerated compliments, and his words made the old lady and her husband smile non-stop.

"If it tastes good, eat more. If it's not enough, ask your godmother to make more for you. It's a pity that Yushui has to live in the school dormitory, otherwise you can ask your godmother to nourish her body."

An old man said with some regret that if He Yushui was there, his family would be a complete family.

"It's okay, she'll be back on the weekend!"

"I heard recently that the school is running low on food and is preparing to suspend classes. I don't know if it's true! Is she getting enough to eat at school? If not, tell us and we'll find a way to send some food over."

An old man asked with some concern.

"According to her, we can hold on for a while, but it's hard to say how long it will last. There's a food shortage everywhere right now, so it's good enough to be able to survive."

At this point, Sha Zhu was also helpless. Everyone is different. He can ensure that he has food to eat, but he cannot ensure that the teacher and other students have food to eat. If the teacher has no food to eat, he can't go to class on an empty stomach, right?

When the uncle heard this, he naturally understood what he meant. The news outside was getting worse and worse, either a drought here or a flood there. Although these people didn't have much to eat, they were actually living quite well. At least they had something to eat. It was not so easy to say what was happening in other places.

"Zhu Zi, you are already an adult! How about your aunt and I help you find a wife?"

Yi Zhonghai looked at him expectantly.

He wanted to talk to Sha Zhu about this last night, but he was angry at the time, so he didn't go to him. He would come and talk to him about it after he calmed down.

"it is good!"

Sha Zhu opened his mouth and was silent for a while. He wanted to refuse, but when he thought of Qin Huairu's refusal, he agreed!

"Okay, it's settled then! Your godmother and I will definitely find you a good wife, and we'll have a few big fat boys in the future, and we'll live a good life as a family!"

The uncle was relieved to see Sha Zhu agreed. He was afraid that Sha Zhu would be stubborn and only want Qin Huairu.

A widow with a child, even if she is the wife of his apprentice, is definitely not worthy of Yi Zhonghai's son.

"That's right. I'll help you find a matchmaker in this area and ask her. I'll definitely find you a good wife!"

The aunt was also very happy when she heard this.

When Sha Zhu saw how happy the couple were, he felt heavy in his heart.
