Courtyard House: New Life, New Silly Zhu

Chapter 95 Early Marriage

Upon hearing Director Li's question, He Yuzhu recounted the events he had discussed with Matchmaker Zhang.

"Oh, so that means you and the matchmaker are getting engaged on the 25th of this month?" Director Li asked.

He Yuzhu nodded, but then noticed that Director Li's brows furrowed.

"What's wrong? Director Li, is there a problem with this?" He Yuzhu asked, puzzled.

Director Li sighed and said, "Zhu Zi, this is a big problem. You said you're only getting engaged on the 25th of this month, so when are you planning to get married?"

"Well, it might have to wait until next month, Director Li," He Yuzhu replied after a moment's hesitation.

Director Li shook his head and said to He Yuzhu, "Zhuzi, in rural areas, letters of introduction are issued for convenience and because the distance is relatively far, so they take a long time to process, and many people accept them even if they are issued for a longer period. But it's different in our factory. Our factory's letters of introduction have to go through formal procedures, and the date is actually written at the bottom of the letter."

Upon hearing Li Huaide's words, He Yuzhu took out the certificate he had placed in his spatial storage, opened it, and indeed found the date and time in the lower left corner.

"Now you've noticed, haven't you? This certificate is only valid for 12 days. After 12 days, you'll have to get a new certificate. Understand?" Li Huaide continued, looking at He Yuzhu.

Hearing that this certificate is only valid for 12 days means it will expire on the 3rd of next month.

He was even planning to get engaged on the 25th, which is a few days from now.

Seeing He Yuzhu's furrowed brows, Li Huaide smiled and continued, "Zhuzi, do you understand now? And you just said that the projectionist Xu Fumao is also getting married on August 3rd, right?"

'

He Yuzhu nodded and said, "Yes, what a coincidence. He's getting married on the 3rd of next month, and my certificate will expire on the 3rd."

"Yeah, since it's such a coincidence, why don't you get married on the 3rd too? You can get your marriage certificate two days in advance, and everything will be fine." Li Huaide's words made He Yuzhu realize the truth.

Yes, getting married is so simple now, and there's not much to prepare. You can just take out the missing items from your space when the time comes, and you can totally get married on the 3rd.

"Director, that's what they said, but on that day, Xu Damao wanted me to help him prepare the banquet." He Yuzhu's words made him seem rather naive.

As expected, He Yuzhu's words made Li Huaide burst into laughter: "Zhuzi, Zhuzi, you can really be silly sometimes. Haven't you heard the saying, 'Better to destroy ten temples than to break up one marriage'? Although such a thing is not practiced, the principle is the same. You can't postpone your own wedding just to put on a show for someone else."

"It was my oversight. I'll explain it to him later and find someone else to cook the feast for him," He Yuzhu said with a wry smile.

Li Huaide felt very comfortable looking at He Yuzhu like this. After all, he usually dealt with those who played politics, unlike He Yuzhu, whose true feelings were clearly visible on his face.

"Zhu Zi, do you want me to give you some advice?" Li Huaide's smile had a hint of wickedness to it.

But for He Yuzhu, Li Huaide was a help. He quickly stepped forward and asked, "Director, what's the plan?"

Li Huaide waved his hand, gesturing for He Yuzhu to lean closer, and whispered, "Yuzhu, listen to me. Go find Xu Damao and tell him you want to marry him. I'll personally attend your wedding, so just tell him that I, Director Li, will be there in person."

He Yuzhu was still a little confused when he heard this, and looked at Li Huaide.

"and then?"

"And then! Then you told Xu Damao that you should hire a good chef, since I, as the director, really love this kind of food." Li Huaide said with a smile. He never hid his hobby, and everyone knew about it.

Li Huaide knew that Xu Damao had sent He Yuzhu over to curry favor with him. Since he had agreed to attend their wedding, Xu Damao would definitely need to find a good chef.

Since He Yuzhu can't cook himself, Xu Damao will definitely hire a chef. Then He Yuzhu won't need to hire anyone himself. He can hold the wedding with Xu Damao and take advantage of his family. This can be considered a suggestion from Li Huaide to He Yuzhu.

He Yuzhu understood, thanked Li Huaide profusely, and immediately turned back.

As for the union, he wouldn't go at this time. After all, it was already past closing time, and the union staff would definitely have gone out for dinner. He wouldn't be able to find them anyway, so he decided to come over tomorrow morning.

As evening approached, he waited for Xu Damao at the factory gate. Once Xu Damao came out, he immediately pulled him aside.

"Brother Zhu, why did you pull me over here? Is there some good news?" Xu Damao looked at He Yuzhu expectantly.

He Yuzhu looked at Xu Damao and said to him, "Silly Mao, I don't want the cabinet you made for me."

Xu Damao was taken aback by the news. He looked at He Yuzhu with some confusion and asked, "What's wrong? Didn't you say so arrogantly that you could borrow a bicycle just by talking to the boss? So inviting the boss over for dinner should be a piece of cake for you, right?" Xu Damao became more and more angry as he spoke. He had tolerated He Yuzhu's behavior yesterday, but he didn't expect that this matter would not work out.

He Yuzhu said helplessly, "Silly Mao, what's the rush?"

"No rush, how can I not rush? I wanted you to invite the leaders to my wedding banquet, and I was going to give you a cabinet then. Who knew you bastard, you didn't invite the leaders, but you've already made my cabinet!" Xu Damao said angrily.

He Yuzhu laughed and said, "Silly Mao, don't worry. Listen to me, my bicycle problem hasn't been solved yet, but my boss has already agreed that I can attend the wedding on the 3rd of next month."

Upon hearing this, Xu Damao asked doubtfully, "Really?"

He Yuzhu nodded: "Of course it's true. Why would I lie to you?"

"What bad news? You scared me." Xu Damao breathed a sigh of relief, but was also somewhat dissatisfied.

"The bad news is that we'll have to find someone else to host your banquet," He Yuzhu said.

Upon hearing this, Xu Damao was about to ask why when He Yuzhu said, "On the 3rd, I will also be the groom."

"What did you say? Say it again!" Xu Damao couldn't believe his ears.

"I said that on that day, we'll get married on the same day," He Yuzhu repeated, this time speaking very loudly. Xu Damao rubbed his ears.

Xu Damao looked at He Yuzhu in disbelief: "He Yuzhu, are you crazy? I'm getting married, and you're getting married too? Are you engaged? Have you prepared everything?"

"We've already discussed it with the matchmaker. We'll get engaged on July 25th, and the wedding will be on August 3rd, which is an auspicious day. Everything is ready," He Yuzhu said with a smile.
