Chapter 92: I have to buy a chicken for a blind date, the third uncle feels sad
Silly Zhu said to the deaf old lady with a sad face: "Old lady, I have to deposit a sum of money with you every month. If I give Rainwater ten yuan, then I will have nothing left!"
Duan Hongxuan quickly came out to rescue: "Grandma, Yuyu is also my sister. Brother Zhuzhu just takes five yuan and expresses his feelings!
I received ten yuan from the street every month, and when I went to college, the state gave college students a subsidy of at least ten yuan a month.
Yu Yu and I can spend enough of this money!
Don’t make things difficult for Brother Zhuzhu!”
Then he smiled at Silly Zhu and continued: "Look, Brother Zhuzi is almost crying!"
The deaf old lady glared at Duan Hongxuan, and then said angrily to Silly Zhu: "Okay, I won't force you to take the money.
It’s up to you how much pocket money you give Yu Yu!
Anyway, be nice to your sister in the future and don’t be as heartless as before!”
Silly Zhu immediately smiled and promised: "Don't worry, old lady, my own sister, of course I have to be nice to her!"
"Come on, come on, don't keep talking, the food is almost cold!" Yi Zhonghai saw that it was almost done. He didn't want Silly Zhu to continue to be targeted, so he quickly changed the topic.
"Lao Liu, how are your family's preparations for Guangqi's wedding?
Is the date set?"
Yi Zhonghai asked Liu Haizhong about the marriage of the eldest son of the family, and everyone became interested.
Yan Bugui quickly asked: "Yes, Old Liu. When do you plan to set the date?
It just so happens that Zhu Zhu is here today. You set the date and ask Zhu Zhu to free up time for you, and let Zhu Zhu take charge later.
You are the seventh-level worker in your steel rolling mill and the second uncle in the courtyard.
Guangqi of your family is the eldest son you think will be the head of the family in the future. You can't be shabby for such a big thing as his marriage.
How many tables do you plan to set up?"
Liu Haizhong glanced at Yan Bugui angrily, "The date has been decided. The sixth day of next month happens to be Sunday.
People from the woman’s family will sit at one table, people from our yard will sit at another table, and people from our family and the leaders and colleagues from Guangqi’s work unit will sit at another table.
A total of three tables is enough!"
"Isn't three tables a bit too little? Is it enough for just one table in our courtyard?"
Hearing Yan Bugui's words, Liu Hai felt a little angry.
I thought to myself, if everyone is like Yan Bugui and plans to bring the whole family, then I won’t even be able to set up ten tables!
I was angry, but my tone of voice was a bit unpleasant, "There are many places to spend money on a wedding, but I don't have the ability to invite everyone in the hospital!
But don’t worry, your third uncle’s bite will be indispensable when the time comes!”
These words were a bit choking, and Yan Bugui didn't know how to answer for a while.
When Yi Zhonghai saw it, he quickly came out to smooth things over and took over the conversation: "On the sixth day of next month! Zhuzhu, you can arrange the time then and discuss with your second uncle later to see how the menu will be arranged!"
"Okay, no problem! Second uncle, let's discuss the menu later."
"Well, okay, I'll bother Zhuzhu then!"
Yi Zhonghai asked Yan Bugui again: "Old Yan, I heard that your Yan Jiecheng is arranging a blind date, has the arrangement been completed?"
Yan Bugui forced a smile and said, "It's all arranged. The matchmaker will bring the girl home next Wednesday, and we can meet each other first."
"The relationship is great! If we fall in love, the marriage of your boss will not be far away.
This is a good thing! Our hospital’s happy events this year are coming one after another!”
Yan Bugui hurriedly said politely: "We haven't even gone on a blind date yet. After the blind date, we still don't know what the result will be!
The marriage is not settled yet!"
"Yan Bugui, this girl will come to your house for a blind date next week. Please stop being so picky and be generous!
Didn’t you see that all your children have objections to you, and the girl comes to your door, and if you mess up the marriage because of your stinginess, then your boss will hate you for the rest of his life!"
The deaf old lady suddenly made such a remark, which made Yan Bugui feel a little embarrassed.
Liu Haizhong gloated from the side and interjected: "What the old lady said is reasonable.
It is a big deal for children to marry each other. As elders, we cannot be reluctant to spend money at this time.
Take our family as an example. From the blind date, to the first visit to someone's home, to the decision to settle the marriage and give a bride price, how did Guangqi not spend any money?
But the money should be spent, and you can’t be stingy at this time!
Otherwise, who would be willing to marry into your family and eat bran-pharyngeal vegetables!"
"Lao Liu, Lao Yan's family situation is different from yours, we can't compare it like this!
But having said that, Lao Yan, this time when a girl comes to your door, please don’t do what you usually do, and be a little more generous with your actions.
This girl should at least have a meal at your house!
But the way your family usually eats, I’m afraid no one can accept it!
You must be careful this time and don’t get confused!”
While Yi Zhonghai was trying to smooth things over for Yan Bugui, Lian also gave a few words of advice.
Yan Bugui felt a little embarrassed when he was told, "Ahem, isn't that a difficult situation at home!
This time my son marries a wife, this is a big deal, I know it well!
At least I have to scramble some eggs."
"Third uncle, your scrambled eggs are a bit too shabby. What's the matter? You can't stew half a catty of pork or stew a chicken!"
"Zhuzi, you are a cook and don't need food and drink. Besides, your salary is higher than mine, so I will support you and your sister.
Can our family’s situation compare with yours?
Stew a chicken! You said it’s easy, but that’s something our family only does during the Chinese New Year!”
"Third uncle, this has nothing to do with whether I am a cook or not!
Yan Jiecheng's blind date is a big deal, not as important as the Chinese New Year!
You go to the market and buy a chicken for only two yuan, but you still don't want to part with it.
If you exchange two dollars for a daughter-in-law, you still make a profit?"
"As you said, if I go on a blind date, I have to pay two yuan.
It’s easy to say if I win, but if I don’t, then my two dollars will not be in vain!”
"Hey, let me tell you, Mr. Third, you are really good at scheming. You have already calculated this, and you can really do it!
You are not letting the hawk see the rabbit!
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading!
If you always go fishing, you have to lay some bait!
What's more, we are still planning to catch a large number of live people and bring back a wife for your boss, so we are reluctant to put out the bait.
Are you really planning to do nothing?
Besides, even if I didn’t win the prize in the end, the girl didn’t eat the chicken alone, didn’t your whole family eat it together!
Where can you lose from this?
Are you really not afraid that Yan Jiecheng will fall out with you in the end?
I am really impressed by you, Third Uncle!
What Hongxuan said at the door of your house that day, you just thought it was for your children, you didn't take it seriously at all!
Hongxuan, your efforts that day were in vain, at least the third uncle didn’t listen at all!”
Silly Zhu's words made Yan Bugui feel a little embarrassed in front of so many people.
After all, Yan Bugui is the third uncle in the courtyard. Silly Zhu didn't save any face, but what he said is true.
This made Yan Bugui feel a little embarrassed.
The deaf old lady sighed helplessly and tapped the crutch in her hand.
"Third uncle, you can't be confused at this time!
If the children really have a grudge against you, what will you do when you two grow old?
Don’t think that if you have many children, you will have someone to rely on when you grow old!
My old woman has lived to such a long time and has many children at home, but in the end, I have seen too many cases where the old man was left outside and ignored!
You have to listen to my old woman's words. On the day when the three girls are coming to your door, you should make arrangements to buy a chicken and stew it early. This is not the time to make calculations!
His third aunt, please keep an eye on this matter and be sure to remember it!"
The third aunt looked at Yan Bugui and said, "Old lady, our old Yan has to make the decision on this matter."
"This time my old lady will let you be the master, let me see what Yan Bugui dares to say!"
"Ahem, just listen to the old lady this time. Remember to buy a chicken and stew it on Wednesday!"
Yan Bugui had a look of pain on his face, but the deaf old lady couldn't help but agree as the deaf old lady talked about this.
"Old Yan, that's right. You must listen to the old lady on this matter!
At that time, we will be waiting to drink your boss’s wedding wine!”
Yi Zhonghai comforted Yan Bugui.
What else can Yan Bugui do? He can only admit it.
But when I think about buying a chicken, I feel so distressed.
At this time, I had no choice but to turn my grief into appetite. I picked up a large piece of chicken with my chopsticks, put it in my mouth and chewed it hard.
At least if you eat two more bites today, you can make up for it more or less.
If you don't know how to calculate, can you still live this life?
