Courtyard No. 95, Nanluogu Lane, was accompanied by bursts of firecrackers.
A tall and burly young man, accompanied by Wang Hongxiu, the street director, slowly walked to the front door.
When the ladies and gentlemen who were celebrating the happy event saw the young man, they all laughed and cheered:
"Zhuzhu, the bride won't arrive until the afternoon. If you come out right now, your legs will be slimmed down!"
"Third aunt, I'm sending the director off!"
After He Yuzhu responded with a smile, Wang Hongxiu, the street director next to him, put on a face and said:
"Lao Yi, Lao Yan, you are now the stewards of the courtyard. Nowadays, you are eradicating bad habits and establishing new practices everywhere. You, the courtyard house, cannot do anything that regresses history. Do you understand?"
The first uncle, Yi Zhonghai, had not yet understood what Director Wang meant. The third uncle next to him immediately answered:
"Director Wang, don't worry, our hospital has always advocated teaching this, and there will never be such a bad habit of having a wedding room!"
"It's best this way. If you let me know that you are just shouting slogans, I won't let you off lightly!"
The street director's impassioned speech shocked the old and young men, young ladies and young wives in the courtyard, and then he said goodbye to He Yuzhu and left.
After a while of commotion.
He Yuzhu returned to his home in Zhongyuan.
There are four members of the He family, namely He Yuzhu, He Daqing, He Yuyu, and He Yuzhu, and He Yuzhu’s mother, He Chang.
He Yuzhu joined the army three years ago and returned with an injury this year. His job was assigned to a steel rolling mill and he became the head of the publicity section. His monthly salary plus welfare subsidies amounted to more than 80 yuan.
He Daqing also works in the steel rolling mill and is the foreman chef in the kitchen.
He Yuyu is eight years old and has just entered primary school.
And He's mother was originally a lady from a wealthy family. In the 1930s, her family was in ruins. She married He Daqing. After giving birth to two children, she was originally a housewife.
However, after the founding of the People's Republic of China, the country vigorously developed education, and the nearby Hongxing Primary School was short of teachers. After the neighborhood office knew that He Chang was literate, she was recruited to become a teacher.
A family of four, three iron rice bowls.
Such a family can be considered a first-class family in the entire Forty-Nine Cities.
The He family was in the middle courtyard and originally had two rooms, one large and one small.
The big house is the middle room of the courtyard, also called the main room, and is three rooms wide.
Nowadays, He Daqing and his wife live there, as well as He Yuyu.
He Yuzhu's house was originally the east wing.
Later, when he returned from injury, the street office allocated him two west-wing rooms in the backyard.
He Yuzhu did not go back to his wedding room, but came to the main room.
After the excitement, suddenly there was another burst of firecrackers outside the hospital.
Several half-grown young men from the courtyard hurriedly came to announce the good news:
"Brother Zhuzi, your new wife is here!"
"Come so early?"
He Yuzhu looked at the clock on the wall with some surprise. It was not yet noon.
You must know that the journey from Qinjia Commune to Sijiu City is at least more than 30 kilometers. Even if you take the newly opened bus, it will take two or three hours to go back and forth.
Everyone in the room did not dare to neglect and hurriedly went out to greet him.
When I arrived at the gate of the courtyard, I saw six members of my in-laws' family and a dozen people seeing off my relatives, driving six carriages, unloading cabinets at the gate.
Although Director Wang said before that bad habits should be eradicated, the founding of the People's Republic of China was less than five years ago, and some old rules are still followed when getting married.
For example, if the man betroths the bride, the woman will give him a dowry.
Although the Qin family is not a wealthy family, for the sake of face, they still gave their daughter thirty-two legs as a dowry.
Everyone rushed to help and delivered the furniture to the wedding room in the backyard.
The bride, covered with a red hijab, was sent into the bridal chamber accompanied by her family members.
At the invitation of He Yuzhu and his son, the men of the Qin family came to the main room to sit down and talk.
The excitement of the day passed quickly.
After seeing off the Qin family, He Yuzhu felt itchy and unbearable. Carrying a bowl of half-cooked dumplings, he came to the wedding room and met his bride, Qin Huairu.
Twenty-year-old Qin Huairu has thin but red lips, a pink face, a delicate figure, and moving eyes that are touching.
He Yuzhu just took one look and felt like he couldn't pull his eyes out.
It was already late at night when Zhou Gong's ceremony passed.
He Yuzhu looked at the woman sleeping sweetly in his arms, and began to think of the man he had stabbed in his previous life.
In terms of appearance, Qin Huairu is better than Lou Xiao'e and I don't know where to be. In terms of virtuousness, Qin Huairu is still better than Lou Xiao'e and I don't know what to do.
But what a wonderful wife, Fei Han.
He Yuzhu rubbed his waist, sighed softly, and began to force himself to rest:
"This woman can't run away, the water will flow slowly..."
The next morning.
He Yuzhu completely forgot what he said before going to bed last night.
If it weren't for the deaf old lady knocking on the door with a cane, Qin Huairu wouldn't know how long she would be affected.
After the two of them got up, despite their exhausted bodies, He Yuzhu performed two sets of boxing in the courtyard to show that he was able to handle the situation with ease last night.
As for Qin Huairu, after getting up, she couldn't even go to the main room to say hello to her parents-in-law.
It was Mrs. He Chang who came to the backyard and discovered the clues. She was so angry that she picked up a stick and wanted to kill He Yuzhu, his son who didn't know how to show mercy.
He Yuzhu ran out of the courtyard in a hurry and played outside for a day. Near evening, he took a leisurely stroll back.
After a day of rest, Qin Huairu was able to walk carefully.
However, with Mrs. He Chang's consideration, she stayed in the wedding room in the backyard that day and did not go out.
At night.
He Yuyu was arranged by He Chang to go to the wedding room and sleep with Qin Huairu.
"This lady is so unreasonable. How can it be reasonable for young couples to sleep in separate beds just after they get married?"
He Yuzhu chirped in his heart, but he did not dare to make trouble with his mother, so he had no choice but to hug the quilt and go back to the penthouse.
In the blink of an eye, it’s the second day of the Lunar New Year.
He Yuzhu rode his bicycle and took Qin Huairu back to Qin's commune.
At this time of year, you don’t need a receipt to buy things.
Therefore, He Yuzhu spent more than ten yuan to buy a large package of food, two bottles of Maotai wine and two sticks of Hardman cigarettes as a return gift.
The young couple set out early in the morning and took two breaks.
When we arrived at Qinjia Commune, it was already noon.
After another excitement.
He Yuzhu hurriedly rode his car and rushed home with his new wife.
Strange to say.
It has been eighteen years since he traveled back in time, and He Yuzhu could endure it easily even if his energy and blood were strong every day.
As a result, they had only been married for a few days, and they were so noisy at night that they couldn't sleep.
Just like that, the bicycle was almost sparking as he pedaled it. Before the sun set, He Yuzhu rushed back with Qin Huairu.
This time the wedding ceremony is over, Qin Huairu is no longer considered a bride, it is time to cook and sweep the floor.
When they returned to their new house in the backyard, He Yuzhu had just sat down on the bedside when Qin Huairu brought a basin of hot water to wash the man's feet.
The two of them hurriedly washed up and got into bed.
