Siheyuan: Superb comprehension? All skills are perfect

Chapter 37 The past is still vivid in my mind

As he expected, the photographer quickly took out two bags of photos. "I carefully developed these photos to ensure that each one is clear and correct."

He also said, "I printed an extra copy of each copy in case it is lost and needs to be reprinted. The original copy is also kept well, so you can come and develop it whenever you need it."

As He Yuzhu spoke, he grabbed a handful of wedding candies and placed them on the counter. "Here, let your mouth be sweetened."

With the consent of the newlyweds, he knew they were newlyweds, so he did not accept the candies.

With this reassurance, He Yuzhu did not look at the photos immediately, but carefully put away the paper bag and went to the street office. When he arrived at Uncle Qin's place, he gave him a pack of wedding cigarettes and a box of wedding candies, as well as some loose cigarettes and candies to share with everyone. Although the amount seemed small, it was considered quite generous at that time.

Soon after the distribution, Li Anyi, who heard the noise, appeared in a hurry. "Sister! Brother-in-law!"

she cried out in delight.

"Very good, very suitable." He Yuzhu nodded happily and handed over the red silk rope and hairpin he had bought earlier. "This is what your brother-in-law bought for you. Do you like it?"

Li Anyi's eyes lit up when she received the gift and she said excitedly, "I like it!"

Then, He Yuzhu patted her on the head and went to the director's office. "Is everything arranged?"

The director said with a smile.

"No problem," He Yuzhu replied, and placed the prepared wedding cigarettes and candies on the director's desk, "Please don't be so polite and share in the good cheer."

The director appreciated his kindness, but he accepted it with a smile: "Daqianmen cigarettes and fruit candies, how can I refuse? Many people may not be able to have such treatment."

He put away his things and handed over a large envelope, "This is for you."

He Yuzhu knew what was in the envelope, so he took it without any politeness and promised: "If there is a good opportunity next time, don't forget that I am the matchmaker."

The director smiled and reminded.

After nodding, He Yuzhu looked around and said in a low voice, "Director, I'm afraid there's no hope this month. They're keeping a close eye on that side, and it's hard for me to handle my business. Can it be postponed to next month?"

"next month?"

The director was just expecting some hope, but he didn't expect there would be more possibilities. "If you really have a way, I can expect it next month."

He said with a smile.

He Yuzhu nodded and added, "By the way, there is one more thing I would like to ask you for help with."

"What's the matter?" the director asked.

"I want to buy it, but they need a recommendation letter and a gun license." He Yuzhu gestured with his hands, "I was thinking, since my uncle is in the district public security bureau, maybe this won't be difficult."

He asked the director for help.

"Do you really want to? Do you want to go hunting?"

The director frowned with some worry, "Zhu Zi, you are still a newlywed, don't take risks easily for a little thing. Listen to me, it's not worth it."

He Yuzhu understood that the other party was concerned, so he replied: "Director, don't I understand? But there are two more people in my family now. If it were normal, I could handle more personal work."

"Now our family is not well-off, and we haven't received any private orders for a long time. To be honest, even the parties and banquets at the factory have been suspended for a while. Look at Yu'er, Xinxin and Anyi, each one is thinner than the other, how can I not feel heartbroken?"

"Although Xinxin has found a temporary job, I also intend to let An Yi go back to school. Besides, they don't have a hukou, so it's hard to guarantee basic living supplies, so how can we save on every expense?"

"Please don't worry. I don't go to the mountains often anymore. I have a 430 for hunting, and I am satisfied with hunting game occasionally. As for firearms, I have received training in the security department of the factory, so it is absolutely safe."

"Otherwise I can only go to the pigeon market, but there are so many homeless people in Beijing, and that would be even more unsafe. With this, we can act with peace of mind. Going into the mountains alone, even if we can't find anything, we don't force it. Instead, it adds a bit of tranquility."

After hearing what He Yuzhu said, the director thought about it carefully and it seemed to be true. "Is that really what you were planning?"

"You don't suspect me of using it to do anything bad, do you?"

He Yuzhu noticed that the other party's tone had softened, and quickly pulled the bride over, "This is my wife, look at this, do you think I would do anything wrong?"

"Not really! I'm very happy to see you two new couples!"

The director looked at the two of them and couldn't help but smile: "I will help you find a solution later. If there is no problem, this matter will be handled by you. But I have a request, you must live a good life and don't take risks and make trouble!"

"As ordered!"

He Yuzhu quickly agreed.

After chatting for a while, the family of three returned to Courtyard No. 95.

"Zhu Zi, why did you come back so early today?"

When Aunt Yang Ruihua saw them, she stared at the items in their hands and said, "Wow, so many good things?"

"I just got engaged to An Xin today, so of course I need to prepare more gifts."

He Yuzhu pushed the borrowed bicycle and said with a smile, "I'll give you wedding candies and cigarettes after everything is packed."

"What, you're engaged! So soon?"

Aunt Yang was stunned at first, then responded quickly.

She realized this only after the three of them left.

"No, how could they get engaged so suddenly? Isn't this too fast?"

After returning home, He Zhuzi distributed the items he bought. Among the more than 20 households, wedding candies had to be distributed, one pack per family as a token of appreciation. As for wedding cigarettes, one cigarette per person would be enough, and no more was allowed.

"Xin'er, Anyi, I'm sorry for you tonight."

After making the allocation, He Yuzhu smiled and apologized, "I think you are aware of the situation in the hospital. In this situation, being too extravagant will often cause trouble."

"Brother, An Yi and I know."

Li Anxin quickly responded, "We have no complaints."

"Don't worry, I won't let you down."

He Yuzhu smiled and said, "Next Sunday when we are resting, I will invite you to Donglaishun to eat mutton hotpot. You can eat as much as you want!"

He Zhuzi's vision for the future is simple. Before moving to another place, he will try to be frugal, at least to improve the quality of his life. On weekends, he will go out to eat with his wife, sister and wife's younger sister to improve the food and nutrition. In daily life, he will try to avoid disputes and just be the same as others. He will try his best to take on responsibilities when necessary, but he will never stand out or stand out from the crowd.

In that courtyard full of disputes, many people clearly knew that there were troublemakers in the courtyard, but they still acted superior on the surface, indulging in a lifestyle of daily sumptuous banquets and frequent purchases. Once there was any disturbance, these people were either the first to jump out and take responsibility, or passively resist. This makes people wonder if there is something wrong with their thinking logic.

Moreover, some people clearly have enough money to buy houses outside, but they would rather stay in this chaotic No. 95 compound, and the high-sounding reason they say is to let those troublemakers get "retribution"

In fact, whenever a problem is reported to the police station, the way it is handled is usually vague and downplayed. They either write a so-called letter of forgiveness, or forgive those beasts with a lot of noise but little effect, and then they still become the target of malicious targeting by others.

He Yuzhu is well aware that his magical powers have both advantages and limitations. Faced with such a situation, his goal is to find a suitable place to move out as soon as possible, and if possible, to a new environment. Before achieving these goals, he keeps a low profile and only seeks to enjoy the little things in life, such as taking the whole family out to have fun on weekends, and then going home to go with the flow and abide by the routine.

Having a backpack and a dungeon space that can carry items gave He Yuzhu a clever strategy to deal with those troublesome people. He planned to let go of the first provocateur for the time being, and maybe he would be useful in the future. Even if it is used as a trap to lure the opponent away, it is feasible, right?

Li Anxin and Li Anyi fully supported his strategy, because even though the ordinary life now was as good as they thought it was, especially when they had experienced the days of hunger, they still remembered vividly. Therefore, they had no objection to any new plan that could ensure peace.

After tidying up the house and visiting the cellar, although it was not time to get off work, many people in the yard had not returned yet. In order to avoid additional disputes, He Yuzhu chose to distribute wedding candies when everyone was at home. During this time, he also guided the two sisters to clean the house and prepare dinner together.

Although they promised to avoid special treatment, they still had to show some respect at the wedding banquet, so they took out the fish they caught during the hidden weapon training, added cornmeal, sorghum flour, sweet potato flour and some white flour, and made a meal of multi-grain steamed buns. He Yuzhu did not do anything, but stood aside and watched them busy, and provided help and suggestions when necessary, sipping tea, feeling relaxed.

When He Yuzhu got home, he realized that he had forgotten to buy a watch, which made it difficult to tell the time. While stewing the fish, he looked up at the sky and decided that this would be one of the things on his to-do list tomorrow.

After He Yushui and Li Anyi took care of the household affairs, Li Yuzhu decided to implement his original plan - to buy himself a watch, so he led Li Anxin to distribute wedding candies from the backyard, and both of them changed into new clothes. Although the wedding itself pays attention to the image, this change of new clothes is not too ostentatious.

"Is the old lady still at home?"

He Yuzhu took Li Anxin to the main door of the backyard and asked.

"Who is it?"

The deaf-mute old woman answered from inside.

"I am the pillar of the Central Courtyard. I am getting married, so I brought some wedding candy to honor you."

he answered loudly.

His words echoed in the backyard.

"I didn't expect Zhuzi to get married so soon. Didn't they say the girl was not old enough?"

The aunt living in the east wing couldn't help but interrupt.

"What do you know? Director Wang introduced it to me personally."

Liu Haizhong took a few sips of wine and glanced at his wife, "Besides, you know, that girl's situation is special, and special situations require special treatment."

"Yes, it's normal to get married at a young age in rural areas."

The old lady nodded and looked at her son Liu Guangqi who was eating. "Oh, my dad, Guangqi is old enough now, it's time to bring up this matter."
