Courtyard House: New Life, New Silly Zhu

Chapter 101

"What do you think of this idea, Zhuzi?" Xu Damao was very proud of his idea, looking at He Yuzhu's expression.

He Yuzhu nodded and smiled, "That's right. When the two families bring them back together, the whole neighborhood will be green with envy."

Xu Damao was extremely pleased with himself and laughed loudly, saying, "That's it! I'm going to make them envious. I'll make it a grand affair, even better than the Jia family's."

"In our courtyard, Qin Huairu was married first, and now it's our turn. Hehe, when that happens, whichever family marries an ordinary girl will be compared to her, tsk tsk tsk, how embarrassing." He Yuzhu laughed as he spoke.

Then, He Yuzhu said seriously, "By the way, what should we do about Xu Damao's two banquets?"

We've discussed what to do before, but the seating arrangement hasn't been decided yet.

Xu Damao said, "This is really difficult to handle."

"You only need to set up two tables, but I need to set up four. This courtyard is only so big. If you set up two tables, I'll set up two tables in the front yard, and the back yard will be just enough for the cook to prepare the food."

He Yuzhu gained a new understanding of Xu Damao this time. He didn't expect that this guy wouldn't argue about how to put the table, but instead considered the face of both families.

"Da Mao, okay, let's do it this way," He Yuzhu nodded in agreement, then said, "But, Da Mao, why were you so generous this time and didn't compete with me?" He Yuzhu was curious and wouldn't be happy until he found out.

Xu Damao was also speechless: "Zhuzi, do you think I'm that kind of person?" However, he still gave an awkward smile: "This time, it really was my dad's idea."

He Yuzhu understood and nodded: "I see, Damao, that's settled then. Since you're here, help me take the vegetables out of the house and move them to the yard."

After saying that, He Yuzhu asked Xu Damao to help move the vegetables to the backyard.

"Ah? Okay." Xu Damao nodded helplessly.

The two quickly finished moving the vegetables, and He Yuzhu took out the meat and soaked it in water. After all, they were going to cook it tomorrow, and they couldn't take it out of their spatial storage, or it would be troublesome if someone saw it.

It just so happens that Uncle Xu doesn't have to work the night shift at the movie theater today, so he's home at this time.

Seeing He Yuzhu and Da Mao move the vegetables to the backyard, Uncle Xu even directed the two on how to place them.

After the move was finished, He Yuzhu washed his hands with well water, then took out a pack of cigarettes, pulled one out, and handed it to Uncle Xu: "Uncle Xu, thank you."

Uncle Xu took the cigarette and said with a smile, "It's nothing, I didn't do anything, no need to thank me."

"No, I'm Uncle Xie Xu, about the banquet this time," He Yuzhu said sincerely.

Hearing this, Uncle Xu smiled and said, "We're all neighbors, no need to be so polite. Besides, I'm moving out this time, so you and Da Mao will have to get along well from now on. Please be understanding if anything happens."

After Uncle Xu finished speaking, He Yuzhu finally realized why Uncle Xu had done that.

"Uncle Xu, I understand. Don't worry, I will." He Yuzhu said earnestly.

Seeing his father and He Yuzhu like this, Xu Damao was a little unhappy: "Dad, do you think I need this silly Zhu to be more tolerant? Dream on, I don't want that."

Uncle Xu glared at him and scolded, "Da Mao, shut up! You really need to be more sensible. I'd rather not smoke!"

.

He Yuzhu watched this scene with mixed feelings. He knew that Uncle Xu was doing it for Xu Damao's good, and that was fatherly love. But what about himself? What difference did it make whether he had a father or not?

"Uncle Xu, don't worry, I know what to do. I'll head back now." He Yuzhu had other things to do, so after saying goodbye to them, he left the courtyard.

He Yuzhu rode his bicycle to the dormitory of the supply and marketing cooperative.

Knock, knock, knock. The door opened, and He Yuzhu saw He Yushui come out. He asked, "Where's your sister-in-law?"

He Yushui, carrying a bag, said with a smile, "Brother, my sister-in-law left first to catch the bus, so she asked me to give you the clothes." After saying that, she handed the bag to He Yuzhu.

I opened the bag and found a brand new white shirt and a pair of black pants.

He Yuzhu didn't look at it closely, put the bag away, and said, "Alright, Yushui, let's go back first. We have a lot to do tomorrow."

He Yushui nodded obediently, then turned around and waved goodbye to her colleague Yang Lifang, who was still in the dormitory.

The two left the place. He Yuzhu rode his bicycle, carrying He Yushui, past the post office. He Yushui looked at the post office, then at He Yuzhu, hesitating for a moment, before finally saying, "Brother, should we mail a letter to Dad?"

He Yuzhu stopped, turned to look at He Yushui, and said, "Yushui, you wrote so many letters asking Dad to come back. Has Dad come back?" Without waiting for He Yushui's answer, he continued, "Forget it, I won't send any more. Maybe Dad is living a carefree life over there now. Maybe he and Widow Bai's two sons are getting along well."

He Yushui remained silent. After all these years, she knew that her father would never come back.

When He Yuzhu arrived at the courtyard house, He Yushui didn't say anything. Looking at He Yushui, He Yuzhu sighed and said, "Alright, I'll send a letter after the wedding."

He Yushui then realized she had lost her composure and quickly said, "Brother, I'm fine, let's not send the letter."

"It's alright, the letter still needs to be sent. After all, he's my father. I've gotten married, so I need to let him know, right?" After saying that, He Yuzhu picked up the car and walked into the courtyard.

The courtyard was quiet by now, and He Yuzhu didn't disturb anyone, so he went straight home.

After boiling water, He Yuzhu took a thorough shower before going to bed.

But he just couldn't fall asleep, his mind filled with thoughts of tomorrow.

After tomorrow, he will get married. After he gets married, he will have children. After he has children, he will have to support his family.

In the TV series, He Yuzhu got Lou Xiao'e pregnant in one go; now, I wonder if he can be just as shrewd.

However, this era values ​​having many children for good fortune, so he plans to have several, ideally enough to form a basketball team.

Thinking about this made him laugh, and then he fell asleep.

The next day, before dawn, He Yuzhu woke up and opened the door to find He Yushui already up.

"Rain, you're up so early?" he asked.

He Yushui disagreed: "Brother, it's getting late, you still have to pick up your wife."

He Yuzhu nodded and said to He Yushui, "Okay, I'll be leaving soon. Please take good care of things at home."

Just as He Yuzhu finished speaking, he saw Yi Zhonghai and his wife walk over: "Zhuzi, today is your wedding day. We've come to help out. You go ahead, I'll keep an eye on things here."

Yi Zhonghai and an older woman got up very early to come and help, for which He Yuzhu was very grateful.
