Siheyuan: I have a multi-dimensional chat group!

"Third Uncle, don't talk nonsense! I'm just showing a couple more movies to my farmers, and they're giving me these local specialties." Xu Damao waved his hand at Yan Bugui and said, "They wouldn't let me leave even if I didn't want to, so I had no choice. Third Uncle, take this bunch of mushrooms home and cook it. First Uncle, Second Uncle, Xiaoshan, each of you take a bunch of mushrooms home and cook it, make a soup, or something."

Yi Zhonghai waved his hand, turned around and left.

Liu Haizhong puffed out his belly and said in an official tone, "Da Mao is not bad. He even knows how to be respectful to your second uncle. If you need anything in the future, just go to your second uncle. I will definitely not let you suffer any losses."

Xu Damao is such a shrewd person; once you add hair to him, he becomes a monkey.

He smiled and said to Liu Haizhong, "That's right, our courtyard still owes a lot to Second Uncle. Our courtyard has always been a civilized courtyard, and it's inseparable from Second Uncle's leadership."

Hearing Xu Damao's flattery, Liu Haizhong was so happy he almost lost his bearings.

In terms of verbal skills, He Yuzhu is far inferior to Xu Damao.

However, He Yuzhu was able to overpower Xu Damao with sheer strength, and having known him for many years, he knew him inside and out, and always managed to outmaneuver Xu Damao.

Liu Haizhong swayed along, humming a little tune, carrying the mushrooms as he walked away.

Xiao Shan took the little mushroom and smiled at Xu Damao, saying, "Brother Damao, thank you!"

After Xiao Shan returned home and rested for a while, He Yuzhu came looking for him with the gifts he had bought.

Just as the two were about to go find Director Wang, they were stopped by Yi Zhonghai.

"Zhu Zi, Xiao Shan, what are you two planning to do? And you're carrying so much stuff!" Yi Zhonghai looked at the things He Yuzhu was carrying and asked the two of them.

Before Xiao Shan could speak, He Yuzhu, being outspoken, told everyone about their visit to Director Wang.

Xiao Shan understood, and Yi Zhonghai's expression instantly turned somewhat ugly.

However, Yi Zhonghai quickly adjusted his expression, which He Yuzhu did not notice.

Yi Zhonghai pretended to be ashamed and slapped his forehead, saying to He Yuzhu, "Look at my brain, I completely forgot about your wedding, Zhuzi. Director Wang is in charge of the whole street office, she's busy all day, let's not bother her. Zhuzi, have you forgotten, I'm an eighth-grade fitter at the steel rolling mill, finding you a partner is a piece of cake, right? I'll keep an eye out for you tomorrow, I'll definitely find you a virtuous one."

It has to be said that Yi Zhonghai's mind works incredibly fast.

If it were just He Yuzhu alone, he might have actually managed to persuade her.

Unfortunately, He Yuzhu still has Xiao Shan standing next to him!

This time, Xiao Shan spoke up before He Yuzhu could: "Uncle, isn't the neighborhood committee here to solve problems for us ordinary people? If we had to solve everything ourselves, how would Director Wang earn merit? How would he get promoted? We're going to Director Wang to give him credit, not to cause him trouble. Don't you think that makes sense, Uncle?"

After a slight pause, Xiao Shan continued, "Brother Zhu will be an older single man in two years. Director Wang is helping older single men find wives. Everyone would say that Director Wang did a great job! We're helping Director Wang set an example and achieve results. She should thank us!"

He Yuzhu nodded in deep agreement and said, "Xiaoshan is right. Let's hurry and go find Director Wang!"

The old man was getting a little anxious because He Yuzhu was considered his backup plan for retirement.

Jia Dongxu is good in every way, but his mother, Jia Zhangshi, is no pushover.

Therefore, Yi Zhonghai had to take double insurance, including scheming against He Yuzhu as well.

He didn't intend for He Yuzhu to remain a bachelor; he just wanted He Yuzhu to find a wife who would satisfy him, someone who would at least be filial and virtuous.

If I find a reckless person, how am I supposed to take care of him in his old age?

He originally planned to wait two more years until Sha Zhu got impatient, and then find him a job.

Unexpectedly, He Yuzhu is now going to Director Wang to settle his marriage affairs!

However, although Yi Zhonghai was anxious, he didn't know how to voice his objections.

Xiao Shan just said that this is giving Director Wang credit, so he can't stop him!

Moreover, judging from He Yuzhu's current happy appearance, if he were to step in to stop him, it would definitely make He Yuzhu unhappy.

Even if he doesn't say it to her face, He Yuzhu will still feel resentful.

Chapter Seven: Giving a Gift to Director Wang! (Please add to your favorites, give flowers, and leave a review!)

Unable to think of a good excuse to stop He Yuzhu from going to Director Wang, Yi Zhonghai could only force a smile and say to He Yuzhu, "Well, Zhuzi, when you go to Director Wang for help, watch your words! I'll also help you look around the factory and see if there are any suitable girls!"

"Yes, yes, don't worry, Uncle, I'll be careful!" He Yuzhu nodded and looked at Yi Zhonghai happily, "Then I'll trouble you to help me look around too, Uncle!"

After leaving the courtyard, Xiao Shan looked at He Yuzhu and whispered, "Brother Zhu, it seems that Uncle Yi still cares about your affairs!"

“Of course, ever since my dad passed away, only Uncle and the deaf old lady have been the kindest to me. They’ve always taken good care of me,” He Yuzhu said to Xiao Shan with a smile.

Xiao Shan nodded slightly and said, "I didn't expect that the old man and the deaf old lady were so kind-hearted. It seems that he truly deserves the title of the old man of our courtyard!"

Hearing Xiao Shan praise Yi Zhonghai, He Yuzhu felt a surge of joy, even happier than if he had been praised himself: "Xiao Shan, you're right. Of the three old men in our courtyard, only the eldest truly deserves the title. The second eldest is always putting on airs and beating the children; he's a complete bum. The third eldest is always scheming, even with the children; he's practically a reincarnation of a shrewd calculator. If the children are ever filial to the third eldest, I'll rip my head off."

Xiao Shan looked at He Yuzhu with some surprise, not expecting that he understood Liu Haizhong and Yan Bugui quite well.

It's a pity that he was fooled by Yi Zhonghai from a young age and couldn't see through Yi Zhonghai's schemes against him.

As they walked towards the neighborhood office, Xiao Shan continued to ask in a low voice, "To be honest, this old lady is a good person, always working hard without complaint, but it's a pity she doesn't have children. Everyone says that she has a health problem, which is why she can't have children. Brother Zhu, you know Uncle Yi well, do you think it's Uncle Yi who can't have children, or Aunt Yi?"

Xiao Shan's question was somewhat unexpected for He Yuzhu, leaving him momentarily dumbfounded.

After a long pause, He Yuzhu stammered, "Xiaoshan, isn't it always the woman's problem if she can't have children? Uncle isn't a eunuch, how could he not have children?"

Xiao Shan smiled and explained to He Yuzhu, "Brother Zhu, having a child is a matter for both people. How could the problem be entirely on the woman's side? It's like crops not growing in a field. It could be a problem with the soil, or it could be a problem with the seeds. There's no certainty about this! Maybe the old lady only admitted that she wasn't feeling well because she was trying to save face for the old man?"

He Yuzhu was shocked, but after thinking about it, he realized that it was indeed possible.

An old man, a dignified eighth-grade worker, even the factory director gives him some face. If word got out that he couldn't have children, wouldn't people laugh him to death?

However, in order to save face for the old man, He Yuzhu whispered to Xiao Shan, "Xiao Shan, we can talk about this, but don't go around spreading rumors. It will have a bad influence on the old man!"

"Don't worry, Brother Zhu, I'm not the kind of person who talks big!" Xiao Shan said with a smile. "Alright, we've arrived at the neighborhood committee office. Let's hurry up and find Director Wang! Don't wait until she gets off work!"

Upon arriving at the neighborhood office, the two quickly found Director Wang, who was still on duty.

Director Wang was somewhat surprised to see He Yuzhu and Xiao Shan who had come to see him.

Director Wang actually knew He Yuzhu and Xiao Shan.

He Yuzhu is the head chef at the steel rolling mill. His culinary skills are well-known in the surrounding streets, and people usually hire him when they have a banquet.

When Xiaoshan's parents passed away, Director Wang even went to offer condolences on behalf of the neighborhood committee!

"Zhuzi, Xiaoshan, what brings you here?" Director Wang asked gently, looking at the two of them.

He Yuzhu got shy at the crucial moment and stammered, not knowing what to say.

So Xiao Shan smiled and said to Director Wang, "Director Wang, this time it's mainly because Brother Zhu has something to do. He's already twenty-three this year and still doesn't have a girlfriend. He'd like to trouble Director Wang to help him find one."

After saying that, Xiao Shan kicked He Yuzhu, signaling him to hand over the gift.

Although Xiaoshan also knew that government officials in this era basically did not accept gifts.

Whether he accepts it or not is his business; whether you give it to him or not is a matter of your attitude.

After being kicked by Xiao Shan, He Yuzhu finally came to his senses and quickly handed the gift he had brought to Director Wang: "Director Wang, I'll have to ask for your help with this matter!"

"Oh, so that's what happened! Zhu Zi, you're indeed not young anymore. With your qualifications, a chef at the steel mill, finding a partner shouldn't be difficult. These days, many families struggle to put food on the table; being with you would at least ensure they have enough to eat every day. You've come to give me credit, it's not a problem at all!" Director Wang didn't accept the gifts He Yuzhu offered. "Helping our comrades is our duty, how could we accept such gifts? Zhu Zi, take these back!"

Hearing what Director Wang said, He Yuzhu was somewhat at a loss.

After all, this was the first time he had ever given a gift to someone in his entire life!

At this moment, Xiao Shan said with a smile, "Director Wang, if you don't accept it, Brother Zhu will feel bad!"

After a moment's thought, Director Wang took a carp weighing over a pound from He Yuzhu's hand: "My daughter-in-law just gave birth recently, so I'll accept this carp from you. But I can't accept it for free; I have five ounces of meat coupons here, Zhuzi, take it. Don't worry about finding you a partner; I'll definitely find you a beautiful and virtuous one!"

He Yuzhu was overjoyed: "Thank you, Director Wang. If you need anything in the future, just let me know. I may not be good at other things, but I can easily cook a dish."

Director Wang laughed and said, "Speaking of cooking, there really is something. My cousin's child is getting married next Sunday, and we've been looking for a cook! The restaurant chefs are too busy on their days off to go, and the cooks at the nearby factory can only cook large batches of dishes, so they're not quite up to the task of cooking for individual meals. That's why they came to me! I was a bit worried, but luckily you came, Zhuzi, which has solved my urgent problem."

After a brief pause, Director Wang said to He Yuzhu, "Zhuzi, if you have time, go over there. Collect the money as you normally would. Cook the dishes well, and if this happens again, I'll have them come to you again."

Mentioning his strengths, He Yuzhu thumped his chest loudly: "Director Wang, leave this to me. I guarantee your relative will be satisfied."

Director Wang then asked He Yuzhu what his requirements were for a partner, and told He Yuzhu to go back and wait for his good news.

The two left the neighborhood office and headed towards the courtyard house.

He Yuzhu took out the five taels of meat coupons that Director Wang had given him and handed them to Xiao Shan: "Xiao Shan, thanks to you this time, otherwise I wouldn't know how to ask Director Wang for help!"

Xiao Shan didn't stand on ceremony with He Yuzhu, and took the meat ticket and put it in his pocket.

Chapter 8, Lu Zhangke, the Melon-Eating Gentleman from the South of the City Who Doesn't Pay! (Please collect, give flowers, and leave reviews!)

Back home, Xiao Shan glanced at the chat group and found that everyone was helping Ying Zheng come up with ideas on how to recruit talents like Zhang Liang.

Group admin Xiao Shan: "Zhang Liang is a nobleman from the state of Han, right? I think it would be a bit difficult to recruit him! I think the Qin Emperor could start with Xiao He and Han Xin!"

Ying Zheng: "Hmm, what the group leader said makes sense! Xiao He was originally an official of my Great Qin, so I'll just transfer him to Xianyang! As for Han Xin, I'll send someone to recruit him right now!"

Yue Buqun: "Xiao He and Han Xin have all been recruited by you, Emperor Qin. It will be a bit difficult for Liu Bang to rise to prominence in the future!"

The world of Swordsman, the headquarters of the Huashan Sect.

Yue Buqun sat atop a fine horse, preparing to lead the Huashan Sect members to attend Liu Zhengfeng's "Golden Basin Washing Hands" ceremony.

However, Yue Buqun's face was somewhat pale at this moment, and if one observed carefully, one could see that his legs were trembling.

Meanwhile, Ning Zhongze, with a rosy complexion, arranged the disciples' travel.

After arranging everything, Ning Zhongze rode up to Yue Buqun's side, her eyes seemingly brimming with tears, and said gently, "Senior brother, the disciples are ready. Shall we set off?"

Yue Buqun didn't dare look Ning Zhongze in the eye at all, and simply coughed lightly: "Then let's set off!"

Then Yue Buqun rode his horse to the front.

Meanwhile, Yue Buqun was thinking to himself, "If only we could have a new member in our group who knows the Emperor's Inner Classic!"

The world of The Heaven Sword and Dragon Saber, a small town at the foot of Wudang Mountain.

Because the time flow is different in each world of the dimensional chat group, Zhang Sanfeng had been waiting for Zhang Cuishan and his wife in the town for several days.

Seeing the chat group giving Ying Zheng advice, Zhang Sanfeng joined in and said a few words. Then he started looking at the martial arts techniques that Yue Buqun had uploaded in the group's shared files.

Zhang Sanfeng did not choose the initiation and transmission method, but instead examined the information himself little by little.

Although this is not as quick as the initiation ceremony, Zhang Sanfeng believed that it was also a form of cultivation!

As he read, Zhang Sanfeng murmured his comments: "Although the techniques passed down by Sect Leader Yue are not particularly powerful, they do have some merit!"

Zhang Sanfeng is currently the strongest member in the dimensional chat group, having reached the sixth level of strength.

It has basically reached the capacity limit of the world of The Heaven Sword and Dragon Saber.

Without the dimensional chat group, it would have been virtually impossible for Zhang Sanfeng to advance any further.

Zhang Sanfeng slowly stood up and began practicing Tai Chi in the courtyard.

After finishing his set of punches, Zhang Sanfeng stopped and stood still, muttering to himself, "Judging by the time, Cuishan's family should be back soon. I should go out and take a look!"

After changing his clothes, Zhang Sanfeng left the courtyard and went out onto the street.

The town was very prosperous because it was protected by the Wudang Sect, and the cries of vendors could be heard everywhere.

As he walked, Zhang Sanfeng's expression suddenly turned serious as he looked at the two people sitting at a tea stall not far away.

Seeing the two people leisurely sipping tea at the tea stall, Zhang Sanfeng recognized them at a glance: "The Xuanming Elders!"

"Since these two have already appeared here, it means that Cui Shan's family should have arrived as well!" Zhang Sanfeng's face was full of joy.

Although he is over 100 years old, he still cares deeply about his favorite disciple.

Zhang Sanfeng also found his way to the tea stall and sat down.

He didn't go looking for Zhang Cuishan's family, because he was sure he could find Zhang Cuishan by following those two guys.

About an hour and a half later, the two elders of Xuanming stood up and prepared to leave, showing no intention of paying.

At this moment, the tea stall owner walked over, gave the two a fawning smile, and whispered, "Gentlemen, are you not going to drink anymore? Please give us some money for the tea."

Upon hearing the innkeeper's words, Lu Zhangke slammed his fist on the table: "Tea money? Humph! I've never paid for watermelons in the south of the city!"

The tea stall owner looked terrified and took two steps back in fright.

Seeing that these two were so arrogant on his turf, Zhang Sanfeng prepared to teach them a lesson.

But at this moment, the two elders of Xuanming turned their gazes to the street, where they saw a young couple with a child walking towards them.

Zhang Sanfeng followed their gaze and immediately recognized his disciple Zhang Cuishan.

Upon seeing Zhang Cuishan and his family, the Xuanming Elders shouted, "Zhang Cuishan! We brothers have been waiting for you for a long time! Hand over Xie Xun's whereabouts, and we'll spare your family's lives!"

Zhang Cuishan looked in the direction the voice came from, and his face instantly changed color: "The Xuanming Elders!"

At this moment, Yin Susu, who was beside Zhang Cuishan, cupped her hands to the two elders of Xuanming and said, "Seniors, my husband and I are going to the Wudang Sect to celebrate their birthday. We would be very grateful if you would be lenient with us. The Tianying Sect and the Wudang Sect will be extremely grateful!"
