Chapter 28 Change
"Is this okay?"

After Yu Zhiyuan finished speaking to Zhuzi, he turned around and shouted to his family, "Xuemei, don't cook anymore. Brother Zhuzi will take care of the meal. Ask Yushui to bring it over. You can eat in your old lady's room."

"Okay, got it. Drink less!"

Yu Zhiyuan and Sha Zhu walked towards the central courtyard, and Qiaoqiao ran over and followed them.

"That's it. Qiaoqiao knows who cooks the best food. It's really quick to say I'm going to your house for dinner."

Sha Zhu touched Qiaoqiao's hair and said, "Qiaoqiao is smart. She knows where the good stuff is."

After entering Sha Zhu's house, Sha Zhu started to prepare the ingredients.

"Hao Yingjuan has been here? What did she say?"

"It's fine like this. We can slowly buy things after we get married. Her family will give her two quilts and two thermoses. I don't need anything now, so I can just take my time."

After Sha Zhu finished speaking, he stopped and looked at Yu Zhiyuan and said, "Zhiyuan, can you get a watch ticket? You can't really not buy anything. Buy a watch for Yingjuan. Please."

"I'll ask you about this later. It's a once in a lifetime opportunity. I'll let you know when I find out."

"Ten big carps, more than one jin, and two jin of meat coupons. The sugar and melon seeds and peanuts are borrowed, I will return them to you at the end of the year."

"When do you want it? I won't give you any meat coupons. Two pounds of pork belly is 3 yuan. The fish is my wedding gift."

"Get the certificate tomorrow morning, get the marriage license in the afternoon, deliver candy to each family in the evening, and hold the wedding banquet next Sunday."

"That's quick enough. Come on, come on. I'll get you a ticket."

As Yu Zhiyuan walked toward the backyard, he thought, "One beam has been removed, and the other is halfway removed."

"I just want to know if you have a surprise tomorrow?"

He took the ticket and gave it back to Sha Zhu.

After a happy dinner, the father and daughter strolled in the backyard for more than half an hour before returning to the house to sleep.

In the morning, Yu Zhiyuan started his life of setting up a stall in the Pigeon Market again. While selling fish, he looked around to see if there was anything rare.

It was almost 7 o'clock when we closed the stall.

I walked up to an old man and asked, "Uncle, how old is this hen?"

"In two years, the family has another nest. This one is sold. It's laying eggs!"

"how much is it?"

"Five dollars for two."

Pay the money, pick up the chicken, and leave.

In the evening, after delivering the fish, Yu Zhiyuan got on his bike and rushed to the courtyard. He had to go back quickly to see each family's reaction.

Sha Zhu's marriage is a big event that will change the life trajectories of many people. The ones most affected will naturally be the Jia family and the Yi Zhonghai family.

In this age of lack of entertainment, Yu Zhiyuan doesn't want to miss out on such a great fun thing to watch.

As soon as I lifted the bike over the threshold, a hand pressed down the front handlebar.

"Zhiyuan, Shazhu got the marriage certificate, so she is his wife?"

"Brother Damao, didn't he tell you? Just go to his house and ask him to show us his marriage certificate. Isn't that simple?"

Damao looked at Yan Bugui and said, "This Shazhu is quite capable. He suddenly announced such great news and he did a good job of keeping it secret."

Yu Zhiyuan thought to himself, of course not, isn’t he afraid that Xu Damao will talk nonsense?

"You two, I haven't eaten yet. I have to go home and eat. I've been busy all day."

He went home and hurriedly ate a few mouthfuls of food, then sat on a small stool at the door of his house, hugged Qiaoqiao, smoked, and played with her.

After a while, I saw Sha Zhu, who was wearing a black Zhongshan suit, black leather shoes, and carrying a cloth bag in his hand, leading a tall woman in her twenties, who was wearing a red mud girl's suit, black pants, black leather shoes, and also carrying a cloth bag in her hand.

The two walked through the Moon Gate, followed by a group of children from the compound.

"Brother Zhuzi, are you starting to hand out wedding candies? Haha." Yu Zhiyuan took the initiative to joke. Silly Zhu smiled and asked, "Is the old lady at home? Bring the new bride to see her?"

"She must be waiting for you to bring your new bride to kowtow to her. Go quickly."

Sha Zhu led Hao Yingjuan into the old lady's house, and no one knew what they said inside.

Five minutes later, the young couple came out of the old lady's house happily.

Leading Hao Yingjuan to the central courtyard.

When Yu Zhiyuan saw this, he quickly took Qiaoqiao and rushed to the central courtyard.

I saw Yi Zhonghai and his wife waiting for Sha Zhu at the door.

"Uncle, this is Hao Yingjuan. We just got our marriage certificate this afternoon. Her family lives in the textile factory's staff compound. Yingjuan, this is Uncle, a seventh-level fitter in the factory, and the manager of our compound. He has taken good care of me and Yu Shui since we were young."

After saying that, Hao Yingjuan was heard calling "uncle" and "aunt".

I saw the two of them grab a handful of peanuts, melon seeds and a few pieces of fruit candy and put them on the table in the room.

When I got back to the door, I heard the aunt holding Hao Yingjuan's hand and saying, "Okay, okay, live a good life with Zhuzi in the future. Zhuzi is also a poor child. It's not easy for him to make a living in the rain since he was a teenager. If Zhuzi bullies you in the future, tell me and I will take care of it for you."

Then he waved his hand and called Yu Shui over: "Listen to your sister-in-law in the future. It's not easy for your brother to get married."

He Yushui nodded quickly.

Then Yi Zhonghai said, "Zhu Zi, live a good life with the girl in the future and change your bad temper. She is the one you chose, and you should live your life by yourselves."

"Don't worry, uncle. We will definitely live a good life in the future. We will have a banquet in the courtyard on Sunday. You will be the one to take care of the arrangements then."

Yi Zhonghai nodded: "Have you prepared everything? Do you have enough money?"

"It's enough. Everything is almost ready. We can just buy some food on Friday or Saturday."

"Go ahead and go to the second and third uncles' houses to deliver wedding candy."

Looking at Sha Zhu leading Hao Yingjuan to Liu Haizhong's house in the backyard, Yi Zhonghai sighed heavily.

This happened to be seen by Yu Zhiyuan.

It seems that Sha Zhu's marriage has indeed disrupted Yi Zhonghai's plans.

Yu Zhiyuan didn't follow them either, he wanted to see the Jia family's reaction.

Wait until Sha Zhu leads Hao Yingjuan back to the central courtyard and knocks on the Jia family's door.

"Brother Jia and sister-in-law, this is my wife Hao Yingjuan. She just got married today, and I'm sending wedding candy to your family." Sha Zhu said as he grabbed a handful of peanuts and melon seeds and gave them to Jia Dongxu. Hao Yingjuan took a few fruit candies and handed them to Qin Huairu.

"Silly wife, I have many children, can't you give me a few more candies?"

Hao Yingjuan glanced at Sha Zhu, then took out a few candies and handed them to Jia Zhang.

Yu Zhiyuan looked at Jia Dongxu, who was like a bamboo pole holding up his clothes, and his heart skipped a beat.

Carpentry requires strenuous work, and Jia Dongxu's malnourished appearance is not normal.

Yu Zhiyuan really softened his heart when he saw Jia Dongxu's look.

Let’s see how Yi Zhonghai chooses!
By the time Sha Zhu had distributed all the wedding candies to the people in the yard, it was already dark.

The next day, after finishing work with peace of mind, I walked back to the yard with the people in the compound and quickly prepared dinner.

As Yang Xuemei's belly grew bigger day by day, she ate less and less at each meal and could only eat small meals frequently.

Don’t let them eat cold food.

After making dinner, Yu Zhiyuan started to knead the dough and make it rise. He had to fry some twisted dough sticks the next morning for Xuemei to take to work.

At dinner time, Yang Xuemei said to Yu Zhiyuan, "When I came back and walked to the backyard, I saw Yi Zhonghai from the middle courtyard delivering cornmeal to the Jia family."

"Yi Zhonghai, you are finally starting to change." Yu Zhiyuan laughed secretly in his heart.
