The Life of a Son-in-Law in a Courtyard House

Sha Zhu saw that Xu Damao was still hesitating.

He quickly added, "Da Mao, when you're out in the world, you earn your own reputation."

This is about your future reputation.

What do you think?

Xu Damao wasn't worried about the money going down the drain.

After all, I'll be getting married soon.

I must find a wife who is even prettier than Sha Zhu.

Lou Xiao'e comes from a good family, but her appearance is far from attractive.

Xu Damao saw that Sha Zhu and Yang Dalin were both looking at him with smiles.

Xu Damao made up his mind: "Yes, yes, Zhu Zi is right, then I'll give five, no, ten yuan."

I'm really looking forward to Brother Zhu's delicious food and drinks tomorrow!

Sha Zhu took the ten yuan from Xu Damao and handed it to Mi Ya next to him: "Wife, keep it safe. This is ten yuan from our brother Damao as a gift."

Ten yuan is a large sum of money, equivalent to a monthly salary of three thousand yuan, and the gift amount is one thousand yuan.

Miya was really hesitant to accept the money.

He Yushui, who was standing nearby, quickly took it and handed it to her sister-in-law.

"Sister-in-law, my brother gave it to you, you can keep it."

Miya then clutched the money in her hand and thanked Xu Damao, saying, "Thank you, Brother Damao. We'll return the favor when you get married."

Sha Zhu was disgusted by the way Xu Damao looked at his wife. He pushed Xu Damao out, saying as he pushed, "Alright, you've finished giving the gifts. Go home and eat. Don't keep your aunt's family from eating."

I didn't do yours tonight either.

Xu Damao was quickly pushed to the door, but he didn't forget to say goodbye to Aunt Qi and Yang Dalin: "Auntie, Dalin, I'll go back now."

Sha Zhu cooked dinner. Although he sent He Yushui to get some things, the Qi family still brought out quite a few good things.

Eight dishes on the table—that's an extremely lavish spread.

The whole family happily finished all the food.

Yang Dalin also served the little girl, Mili, a lot of food.

I didn't dare to put too much meat on her plate, fearing it might upset her stomach.

The seafood was enough to fill the little girl's stomach.

Yang Dalin had the feeling of an old father taking care of his daughter.

After all, the soul is in its thirties.

Yang Dalin liked the little girl very much.

On the contrary, the little girl liked Yang Dalin very much because he gave her so many delicious things.

These two are having a lot of fun.

Qi Xiaoning might be a little jealous, but then she thought about how the little girl was going to stay at Brother Zhu's house tomorrow.

Then I felt relieved.

At night, Aunt Qi arranged for Qi Xiaoning to sleep with He Yushui.

The Mi sisters, Aunt Qi, and Qi Yanhua slept together.

This way, the kang (heated brick bed) will be more spacious.

It's not that crowded.

Yang Dalin and Sha Zhu drank quite a bit last night; Sha Zhu is probably really happy today.

That night, Yang Dalin and Ma San carried Sha Zhu back home.

It wasn't that Yang Dalin couldn't carry it alone; it was because Ma San was there that he could open a door or lift a curtain.

The next day, Yang Dalin woke up on time as usual. It was still dark when he looked at his watch and it was almost six o'clock.

In the north, it's still dark at six o'clock in the morning during winter.

Yang Dalin didn't plan to continue sleeping, so he prepared to get up.

However, he heard some noise outside the gate.

Listening closely, damn it, it wasn't even dawn yet, and Sha Zhu was already guarding outside the door.

That son of a bitch, he's gone crazy missing his wife.

Yang Dalin took out some cloth coupons and the like from his spatial storage.

Put it in your pocket.

Only then did he get dressed and open the door.

Sha Zhu squeezed in immediately.

Yang Dalin scolded him: "You drank so much last night, why are you up so early? It's not even dawn yet."

Sha Zhu said, "I just got up to make breakfast for my wife."

Yang Dalin handed him the cloth coupons from his pocket: "Get lost, come back an hour later. My aunt and the others haven't gotten up yet. Take these, and after we finish eating, take your sister-in-law and Xiaomili to buy some clothes."

After saying that, Yang Dalin pushed Sha Zhu out again.

Actually, Aunt Qi was already awake. Seeing Mi Ya still pretending to be asleep, Aunt Qi called out from inside the house, "Da Lin, who is it so early?"

Yang Dalin said, "It's alright, Auntie. It's just a big black rat. I'll tell it to come back in an hour. You can get some more sleep; it's not even dawn yet."

I'm going to work now.

After saying this, Yang Dalin washed up with warm water inside the house, put on his coat, closed the door, and left.

Leaving behind a foolish Zhu with sorrowful eyes, his hands tucked into his sleeves, squatting at the Qi family's door.

Yang Dalin thought to himself with contempt: "What a spineless guy, he's never seen a woman before. He'll be henpecked in the future."

Yang Dalin ignored Sha Zhu's attempt to grab his hand.

She shook him off and ran away.

On a cold winter morning, before dawn, Yang Dalin pushed his bicycle and saw Ma San waiting for him in the dim light.

The Ma brothers are still the best; they're still young, all they know is how to make money, not how to find women.

On the way, Yang Dalin asked him, "San'er, are you envious of Brother Zhu's marriage? What kind of wife do you want to find in the future?"

Ma San was taken aback, and after a while said, "Brother, I'm still young, I haven't planned on that yet."

Yang Dalin, oblivious to the change in Ma San's eyes, casually remarked, "That's right. For a real man, making money is the most important thing. Women will only slow down your money-making process."

You mustn't start dating too early, even though you're past the fifteenth of the lunar year.

Making more money is the real priority.

"When life is good, a good wife will naturally come, you know?"

Ma San said in a muffled voice, "Okay, brother."

When the two rode to the train station square, it was just getting light. They first went to find a state-run restaurant.

The two parted ways after eating and drinking their fill. Yang Dalin went to work, while Ma San worked as a taxi driver at the train station.

Yang Dalin should be able to get his driver's license next Monday, so he wouldn't need to come to learn car repair so early.

But Yang Dalin couldn't sleep at home.

I go to bed around 8 or 9 pm every day, and at the latest, it's never later than 10 pm.

By 5 a.m., that's at least seven hours of sleep.

It's simply because I can't stay in bed without my phone to play with.

It would be better to come out earlier and help fix cars; that would also be a good way to get some exercise.

If he had a mobile phone to play with, Yang Dalin would dare not get out of bed for a whole day.

It's a pity that it's not available, is it?

What did you mean by lying at home reading novels?

Good grief, there are so many books in the library that Yang Dalin simply can't read.

Unless you go to a pigeon market or a scrap yard to find some old storybooks or the like.

Otherwise, Yang Dalin really couldn't stand reading other books.

We can ask Uncle Duo to help us collect some later.

Books about extraordinary people and events from before the liberation are still worth reading.

However, it's best not to watch it while lying down, otherwise you might develop strabismus in one eye.

In his past life, Yang Dalin loved to read while lying down, which caused the lens of his right eye to tilt to the right.

To a stranger's eye, the lenses of the two eyes appear completely asymmetrical.

(The author's personal experience)

This is a good habit that you can't develop in your lifetime.

I finally have a pair of good eyes, so I really took good care of them.

However, Yang Dalin thought to himself, "Would my eyesight be better if I went to fly a plane?"

However, Yang Dalin thought about the monotonous life in the army and the fact that the Lin family's "genius" would join the Air Force in the future, so he decided to give up.

They are people you can't afford to offend. If you perform well, you'll definitely catch their eye, and you might not be able to avoid them.

Unless the performance is very average.
