Siheyuan: Since 1962

Chapter 66 Pleasure
"Old Jiang, when you go to matchmaker Zhang, please talk to her and ask her to come to my house after the New Year."

After saying that, Zhou Weimin took his brother and sister away. He had just accidentally ruined Yan Bugui's good deeds, so it was better for him to leave quickly.

If someone saw it, Yan Bugui would definitely blame him.

Jiang Honggui watched the three people leave with a smile, then packed up and went home happily.

It is true that Teacher Yan’s home is not a good place to be, but this good family came to our door on their own initiative.

He knew Zhou Weimin's job clearly. Seeing how good he was to his younger brothers and sisters, how could he be any worse to his wife?

As for Zhou Weimin not having an adult to help him, it is not a big deal. His house is only across an alley from Zhou Weimin's yard. When the two have children, the worst that can happen is that the child's mother can go over to take care of the child.

The more he thought about it, the more it seemed to be the case. Jiang Honggui couldn't help but quicken his pace as he walked home.

As soon as I got home, I saw my son and daughter sitting at the table drinking water and chatting.

Jiang Honggui picked up the towel hanging behind the door, frowned and asked, "Why are you the only ones at home? Where's your mother?"

Jiang Qiuna stood up, picked up the thermos and filled the basin with water, then said with a smile, "Mom just went out and said she would be back soon."

"Just go, Qiu Na. I've found out everything. You and Mr. Yan Bugui's eldest son will meet tomorrow. I plan to tell matchmaker Zhang and get back to you."

Jiang Honggui sighed, thinking that his wife must have gone out to inquire about things, so it was all in vain.

"Dad, what's wrong? Is Yan Jiecheng not okay?"

Before Jiang Qiuna could speak, Jiang Qiuan asked.

"It's not a problem if people find out, but Yan Jiecheng is just a temporary worker, not a regular employee of the steel mill at all."

Jiang Honggui wiped his face and was still a little angry when talking about this.

"Ah, isn't that matchmaker Zhang lying? She's trying to push my sister into trouble. No, I have to go and argue with her!"

Jiang Qiuan refused to do it when he heard that. He slammed the table and was about to walk out the door.

Jiang Honggui quickly grabbed his youngest son and reprimanded him in a stern tone, "Sit down. I've thought about this. Matchmaker Zhang didn't say it was a formal job, so she has a reason to find someone there. You and your sister will still need a matchmaker in the future. What will you do if you have a falling out with her?"

"Qiu An, less trouble is worse than more. I didn't go to see Yan Jiecheng, so let's forget about it."

Jiang Qiuna comforted her brother at this time, but she felt a little disappointed.

She had always wanted to marry a cultured man, and fantasized about having a romantic life like the ones described in books after marriage.

Even though she knew it was almost impossible, she still held out some hope, so when she heard that he was meeting Yan Bugui's eldest son, she naturally had some favorable impression of him.

But she didn't expect things to turn out like this, and her hopes seemed impossible to come true.

Jiang Honggui rubbed the towel, wrung it dry and hung it behind the door. Seeing that his daughter was not in a good mood, he simply told her his plan.

"Qiuna, Dad has picked out a young man for you. He's Zhou Weimin, from the same hospital as Yan Bugui. He's a buyer for the steel mill."

When Jiang Qiuan heard the name, he asked in surprise, "Zhou Weimin? I've heard of this person, but it seems like both his parents are gone."

"Well, it was his parents who died in the line of duty last year. His brother has graduated now, and his sister is still in secondary school. She is a very nice person. Qiu Na, what do you think?"

Jiang Honggui nodded. Almost everyone in their neighborhood knew about Zhou Weimin's parents, but many people didn't know that Zhou Weimin was their son.

"pretty good."

Jiang Qiuna just nodded slightly. She didn't really care that the other party had no adults at home. Since her father had proposed it, she didn't want to refuse. "Then it's settled. After the New Year, I'll talk to matchmaker Zhang and ask her to take you to meet Zhou Weimin."

Jiang Honggui smiled and nodded, finalizing the matter.

As for why it was after the New Year, it was to avoid suspicion.

If I go there too quickly and the matter really happens, my daughter will probably have to endure a lot of rumors when she gets married.

You know, reputation is very important these days. If your reputation is ruined, everything in the future will be affected.

"Dad, why don't I go over and ask around so I can meet my future brother-in-law first."

Jiang Qiuan winked at his sister and smiled particularly happily.

"Don't talk nonsense. There's nothing yet. We don't know whether this thing will succeed or not. If your words get out, how will your sister live in the future if it doesn't succeed?"

Jiang Honggui frowned and scolded again, saying that his youngest son really did not know the seriousness of the matter.

"Dad, I'm just talking at home."

Jiang Qiuan muttered softly.

……

On the other side, the courtyard.

"Wei Min, you bought two bicycles at once?"

Yan Bugui asked sourly, looking at Zhou Weibing's bicycle and then at Zhou Weihong's.

The more he looked at it, the more he liked it, and he wished it was his own home.

"I saved them all. With the current prices of bicycles in department stores, I can't afford two even if I sold myself."

Zhou Weimin made a joke, and then continued, "This money was collected from the money my parents left behind. Weibing will be working soon, so I bought a bicycle first, which will make it easier to find a partner in the future. I have saved all this money, so I might as well buy Weihong's as well. It will be safer on the way to and from school, and it can also be used as a dowry in the future."

"Well, that's the logic, and it applies to everything. Wei Min, your family has bought two bicycles, which is a big happy event. Don't you plan to set up two tables in the yard and treat everyone to a meal?"

Yan Bugui nodded repeatedly. Zhou Weimin didn't think of leaving all his parents' money to him. He was indeed a good brother.

But in a blink of an eye, he started to make a plan and thought about having a good meal at Zhou Weimin's place.

"Teacher Yan, we should advocate thrift and diligence now, not extravagant celebrations. Go to the Intermediate Court and ask Sha Zhu how many guests he accepted for his wedding this year. You are trying to make me make a mistake."

"Proposal, this is my proposal. Weimin, you may not know yet, Lao Yi introduced a girl to Sha Zhu, and she will be here soon."

Yan Bugui hurriedly explained and changed the subject. He couldn't bear the blame of letting others make mistakes.

"Oh, that's good. Didn't Shazhu always want to find a wife?"

Zhou Weimin didn't react much after hearing this. With Yi Zhonghai and Qin Huairu around, this meeting was doomed to fail and it would just be a show.

"Brother Wei Min, Brother Wei Bing, Sister Wei Hong, this new bicycle is really nice."

At this time, Yan Jiefang suddenly walked in from outside the yard. After seeing the new bicycle, he immediately trotted over to the few people.

Behind him, Liu Guangtian, Liu Guangfu and Yan Jiekuang also ran over.
