Siheyuan: The Era of Struggle

Chapter 50: The Marriage Is Set ( words, please save and read)
In the end, Yang Liu gave Hu Yinghong some face, but she glared at Yang Ning fiercely and said, "If you dare to bully Yinghong in the future, watch out for your legs."

After saying that, she put down the broom in her hand, looked embarrassedly at Hu Yinghong who was pulling her, then bent down, pulled up the two monsters on the ground, and went back to the house.

Yang Ning glanced at Hu Yinghong who was trying to hold back her smile and asked unhappily, "Why didn't you stop her just now?"

Hu Yinghong gave Yang Ning a helpless look: "I didn't expect that you, who are usually fearless, actually have someone you are afraid of? But the atmosphere in your family is really good!"

As Hu Yinghong spoke, a hint of envy appeared on her face, followed by a hint of sadness.

Yang Ning fell silent after hearing this. Hu Yinghong's grandfather, Mr. Hu, was considered an old comrade. He had joined the organization longer than the Rabbit Army members. Her parents were also influenced by him and became Army Rabbits.

However, during the national crisis, neither the couple survived, and her grandfather was usually very busy, so she showed this expression after seeing the atmosphere in Yang Ning's family.

Yang Ning looked at Hu Yinghong and although she had a baby face, the expression on her face at that moment made him feel inexplicably soft-hearted.

Yang Ning mustered up his courage, stared into Hu Yinghong's eyes and asked solemnly: "So Hu Yinghong, I am now solemnly asking for your opinion, are you willing to join this family?"

Yang Ning did not act on impulse or anything, but rather did it after careful consideration.

He understood that when the higher-ups arranged for Hu Yinghong to take care of him, they did so with the intention of bringing the two of them together.

Well, this is the daughter-in-law.

In addition, during the past few months of getting along with Hu Yinghong, Yang Ning found that Hu Yinghong was a rare new-age woman in this era, and her temperament was more compatible with Yang Ning.

Besides, it doesn't matter who you marry. Given his situation, it's difficult for the organization to let him stay single. In that case, why not take Hu Niu, who is relatively good-looking and compatible with him, as soon as possible.

Think about it, in the future you will be in your thirties and still be single, what else is there to be dissatisfied with?

After hearing Yang Ning's words, Hu Yinghong suddenly raised her head and looked at his serious eyes. Her face turned red and then she nodded gently.

If she was not satisfied with Yang Ning, she would have done her job impartially even if she agreed when the organization arranged for her to take care of Yang Ning.

Besides, when Yang Ning asked her if he could learn martial arts and medical skills from her, although her family's prescriptions had been donated to the organization a long time ago, not everyone could learn it.

Just like Chen Jingguo, because Hu Yinghong had no feelings for him, even if he just wanted to learn a martial art that was not inherited from the family, the old man refused.

Looking at Hu Yinghong's blushing face, Yang Ning was even more satisfied. This girl was simply a combination of a tomboy and a feminine woman, and she could switch between the two at any time. What else did she need?

If Yang Ning hadn't been sober, he would have already stuck to him.

Considering the current environment, Yang Ning could only look at Hu Yinghong and grin foolishly.

"After living two lifetimes, I finally have a wife!"

Hu Yinghong looked at the silly-smiling Yang Ning, wondering if she had agreed too hastily.

"Virtue!"

When Yang Liu learned during dinner that Hu Yinghong had become her future daughter-in-law, she secretly gave Yang Ning a look that said "you did a good job", then pulled Hu Yinghong aside to ask her questions, entering "interrogation" mode.

In the evening, when her father came home from get off work, Yang Liu happily told him the news.

Her father was also very satisfied with Hu Yinghong. After this girl came to their home, she was quite hardworking and often helped them solve some of their minor ailments. In addition, she was arranged by her superiors to take care of their son, so her character must be good.

After hearing the news, although Yang Dagen was not as happy as Yang Liushi, he nodded, then looked at Yang Ning and said, "If you are not busy, try to settle your affairs before you graduate."

Seeing that his parents were very satisfied with Hu Yinghong, Yang Ning could only nod.

…………

"What, you want me to be your matchmaker?"

I originally wanted to rest at home for a few days, but I didn't expect that I would establish a relationship with Hu Yinghong in such a confused manner.

But Yang Ning also knew that this matter could not be delayed, so early the next morning, he ran to school alone to find his teacher, Professor Dong, to act as a matchmaker for him.

When Professor Dong heard this, a hint of gossip ignited in his eyes. Although as an intellectual, Professor Dong should not be so gossipy, it depends on who the person is!

"What kind of girl is so blind that she would like a boy like you?"

"How can you talk like that? What's wrong with me? It's her blessing that I like her!"

When Yang Ning heard what Professor Dong said, he looked unhappy. After all, he was a good man with handsome appearance, extensive knowledge and good character. How could he say that the girl was blind?
"Ahem!" Professor Dong knew that he had accidentally spoken out his true feelings, and he coughed twice in embarrassment.

Because in his impression, Yang Ning is a research maniac who spends most of the day at work. Such a person should get married very late. He didn't expect that this guy has a partner so soon?
Professor Dong took a look at Yang Ning's fairly handsome appearance and wondered, "Is appearance really that important?"

"Whose family is this? You have to tell me the truth first, otherwise how can I be your matchmaker?"

As he spoke, Professor Dong looked at Yang Ning with eyes full of curiosity.

"Hey, that's the girl following behind me, Hu Yinghong."

Yang Ning chuckled and looked at Professor Dong with a smug look on his face.

puff~
When Professor Dong heard the name, he spat out the tea he had just drunk.

"Ahem, who are you talking about?"

Professor Dong was afraid that he had heard it wrong, so he looked at Yang Ning and asked again.

"Hu Yinghong! What's wrong?" Yang Ning looked at Professor Dong in confusion and asked, is there something going on here?

"No, no, I'm fine." Professor Dong hurriedly wiped the tea from the corner of his mouth, but Yang Ning found that he looked at him strangely.

"Boss, we have known each other for several years. What's going on here?"

Yang Ning leaned over Professor Dong's desk, staring at him and asked.

"Ah!" Professor Dong was so nervous when Yang Ning stared at him that he sighed and said, "Xiao Hu is a good girl. Since she likes you, you have to be more considerate of her in the future. Don't fight, okay?"

Yang Ning nodded, still staring at him without saying a word.

Professor Dong took a sip of tea, and then whispered to Yang Ning: "Xiao Hu is not bad looking and capable. She should have been married a long time ago at her age, but do you know why she is still single?"

Yang Ning shook his head. He never inquired into Hu Yinghong's personal affairs. He just took her as soon as he saw her.

"She beat up all those young men who were pestering her. You better be careful next time."

"Hey! I thought it was something else, that's it?"

Yang Ning listened for a long time and thought that this was not something Professor Dong should make a fuss about. This kind of situation was common on the Internet in later generations. She was not as pretty as Hu Yinghong. Even if he wanted to marry someone like that, she would not look down on him.

Professor Dong doesn't understand the benefits of marrying a beautiful and powerful wife. It gives you a sense of security, right?

If this happened in later generations, with someone like this keeping watch at home, there would definitely be fewer problems.

Besides, men in the city are subject to domestic violence? If anyone has been beaten by his wife, please come forward and tell us about it.

Seeing that Yang Ning didn't care about this matter, Professor Dong didn't try to persuade him much.

Because he had already told Hu Yinghong yesterday that he would propose marriage today, there was no time to lose. After Professor Dong changed his clothes, the two got in the car.

Hu Yinghong's family lived in a large compound near the Chinese Academy of Sciences. Yang Ning had been there several times before when he sent Hu Yinghong home, but he had never been inside. The car was stopped by guards at the gate. One of the soldiers came forward to check their IDs, asked them to register, and then took them to the small building where Hu Yinghong lived and left.

Before leaving, the young soldier looked at Yang Ning with a hint of admiration in his eyes.

"Let's go. I'm trembling just looking at you. Can you be more capable?"

After Professor Dong got off the car, he glanced at Yang Ning, who was a little nervous, and said unhappily.

"Haha, it's inevitable to be a little nervous for the first time."

Yang Ning specially wore a white shirt today, blue trousers, and a pair of shiny leather shoes, which was rare for him. His hair was also made shiny by his mother, and he looked quite decent.

At this moment, he was holding the prepared gift in his hand and was a little nervous looking at the red brick building in front of him. After all, it was the first time for the prospective son-in-law to visit!

"Be careful later. Mr. Hu is usually very serious."

Professor Dong gave Yang Ning some final instructions, then walked forward and knocked on the door.

Yang Ning, who had calmed down a little, became nervous again after hearing what Professor Dong said.

"Comrade Yang Ning, Professor Dong, you are here? Come in quickly."

The person who opened the door was Hu Yinghong. She had dressed up specially today. Although she was still wearing a Lenin suit, it looked like new clothes that had never been worn.

When she saw Yang Ning following behind Professor Dong, her eyes lit up and then a blush crept up her cheeks.

The blush disappeared in a flash, and then she gracefully made way for Professor Dong and Yang Ning to come in.

Yang Ning followed Professor Dong and walked side by side with Hu Yinghong, and the two of them were caught in an awkward atmosphere.

"Mr. Hu, how are you?"

"I'm fine, Xiao Dong. I didn't expect you to be the bad guest today!"

It was not until Professor Dong greeted a man in his sixties with white hair and a youthful face that the two men came to their senses.

The old man was wearing an old-fashioned blue robe and old Beijing cloth shoes, and looked very energetic.

When Professor Dong heard what the old man said, he chuckled twice.

You are not a bad guest. You have set your sights on someone's granddaughter. It's good enough that we let you in.

"Hello, Grandpa Hu!" Seeing this, Yang Ning hurried forward and greeted him respectfully.

"Hmm!" The old man raised his eyelids and glanced at Yang Ning.

Just this one glance made Yang Ning feel like he had been seen through from head to toe.

Yang Ning's body tensed up involuntarily, and he thought to himself, "No matter which male elder the woman is, it turns out that they are not that easy to deal with."

They are all men, why should men make things difficult for other men?

"Grandpa, what are you doing?" Hu Yinghong noticed Yang Ning's embarrassment, stepped forward, took the old man's hand and shook it.

"sit down."

The old man then withdrew his gaze and said lightly.

Hu Yinghong secretly gave Yang Ning a look that told him to wish him well, then poured a cup of tea for everyone and sat aside obediently.

The old man and Professor Dong took a sip of tea, and then Professor Dong looked at Grandpa Hu and said, "Grandpa Hu, I'm sure you know about the two children. What is your opinion?"

When Yang Ning heard Professor Dong say this, he immediately felt that he had been a little hasty in choosing a matchmaker. Who would give up the initiative right away?
But now that it has come to this, I can only pray that Yang Ning’s charm will impress Grandpa Hu.

"Yinghong lost her parents when she was young and suffered a lot, so I rarely interfere in her life-long affairs."

"Now she has chosen Xiao Yang. I have a basic understanding of him. He is indeed a good guy."

Just be afraid of everything.

As expected, Grandpa Hu put down his teacup, stared at Yang Ning and said seriously: "But Yinghong is my only granddaughter after all, and also my last relative. I have to help take care of her. Xiao Yang."

"Grandpa Hu, you say."

Yang Ning quickly stood up and looked at Grandpa Hu seriously.

"I'm old now, and I can't take care of Yinghong for much longer. If I hand him over to you, can you listen to her and give in to her in everything?"

Yang Ning hesitated. He ignored Hu Yinghong who was glaring at him from behind. He lowered his head and thought for a while: "I can't, because I can't guarantee that Yinghong's request will not conflict with my work."

"Haha~"

After Yang Ning said this, he was ready for Grandpa Hu to break up the couple.

Unexpectedly, after hearing Yang Ning's answer, Grandpa Hu's stern face instantly melted away and he burst into a hearty laugh.

He looked at Yang Ning with satisfaction and said, "If you had agreed without hesitation just now, I would have chased you away immediately, no matter how much Yinghong likes you."

Hu Yinghong, who was originally anxious, was confused by his grandfather's words. Professor Dong on the side was also a little surprised, but he looked at Yang Ning with more satisfaction.

The fact that Yang Ning could make such a choice showed that he had the kind of awareness that only pure people could have.

"If you really agreed to it, it means that you are either dishonest and used those words to deceive an old man like me, or you don't know the difference between the important and the trivial. I don't trust such a person. You didn't let me down."

Grandpa Hu smiled and looked at Professor Dong and said, "I have no objection to this marriage."

Then he looked at Professor Dong and smiled, "I didn't expect that you, Xiao Dong, would also be doing matchmaking work?"

"I have met you, thank you Mr. Hu for your help."

"Haha, then should I also thank you for finding me such a good grandson-in-law?"

The atmosphere in the entire living room instantly became relaxed, and after a discussion between the two parties, they decided that the marriage would be settled after the two families had a meal together in the future.

"You already have a wife?"

Until he left the house, Yang Ning was still a little dizzy. He didn't ask for a house or a car, and didn't get a sky-high gift. But a beautiful wife was going to be his soon?

"Thank you for the times!"

The old bachelor, who has been single for more than 50 years, expressed his sincere gratitude in his heart.
