The Boss of the Yan Family in Siheyuan

Lao Yan's New Year's Eve dinner was very sumptuous. Not only did he make dumplings, Yan Jiecheng also fried several vegetables and a large pot of pork head.

The family gathered around the table and looked at the food on the table, mouth watering. "Come on, eat, don't look at it." After the third aunt said this, she started to take a piece of meat to Xiao Ziyang and Xiao Ziwan.

Yan Jiecheng took Erguotou and filled it up for Yan Bugui, and poured another cup for himself. When Yan Jiekang and the others heard the third aunt say that they should start eating, they picked up their chopsticks and quickly put vegetables into their bowls.

"Brother, pour me a drink too." Yan Jiefang pursed his lips and said to Yan Jiecheng who was pouring the wine.

"If you want to drink it, pour it yourself. Don't spoil him." Yan Bugui said dissatisfied. Otherwise, today is the 30th of the New Year and he will be kicked out early. During the Chinese New Year, he will not bring anything to eat at his house, and it will be empty. He came with both hands. I couldn’t believe it when he went to his partner’s house with nothing.

"Pour it by yourself." Yan Jiefang didn't care and reached for the wine bottle in Yan Jiecheng's hand to fill his cup. He didn't care about Yan Bugui's criticism. Anyway, he couldn't do without a piece of meat, so he was separated. He still pays pension money every month, so he doesn't want to get things for himself. He doesn't earn as much as his elder brother, so he can't save some money for his wedding.

As for Yan Jiefang's appearance of not being afraid of boiling water, Yan Bugui couldn't do anything about him. He couldn't really kick him out. If he really did this during the Chinese New Year, the people in the compound wouldn't laugh at his family to death.

…………

Silly Zhu’s house in the middle courtyard.

He Yuyu also returned to the courtyard on New Year's Eve today. She was supposed to get married years ago, but she didn't expect that her partner was on a business trip, so she had to postpone the wedding until after the New Year.

This year's New Year's Eve dinner at Sha Zhu's house was also very sumptuous, although due to Qin Huairu and Sha Zhu's early marriage, they lost the 20 pounds of pork that Deputy Director Li had in the TV series.

But there are three people in their family working in the factory including the first uncle. The pork distributed in the factory alone is three kilograms, and when the first uncle came over, he also brought a white-striped chicken.

During the Chinese New Year, Shazhu was also busy cooking wedding banquets for people, and often brought meals to his house. The New Year's goods bought by his family were not touched at all, and they were all cooked today.

The uncle looked at the table full of delicious dishes in front of him and said with a sad expression: "The old lady would be happy if she were here. She loves meat the most."

Mrs. Jia Zhang was frightened when she heard the first uncle mention the old lady: "I said Lao Yi, what did she do when she was celebrating the New Year? It's so unlucky. Wine and meat are not enough for you."

"Okay, Mom, please stop saying a few words. The first man is right. The old lady took great care of Zhu Zhu in the past. We must not forget our roots." Qin Huairu saw that Sha Zhu's face started to look bad and she hurriedly turned to Jia Zhang with her mouth open. Shi said.

"Okay, let's start eating. I'm just complaining. Since some people don't want to hear it, I won't say it anymore." The first uncle was quite satisfied with Qin Huairu's attitude. He didn't take what Jia Zhang said to heart. He didn't even take Jia Zhang seriously, she was just an old witch and it was not easy to deal with her.

Silly Zhu picked up the wine glass and touched it with the uncle, then drank it in one sip.

"Brother, drink slowly. You've already done it before the first man drinks."

"Just leave me alone. By the way, your partner is back. When will you get married in the next year?" Silly Zhu asked his sister.

Ever since Qin Huairu became a widow, things were fine at first but then she didn't care much about He Yueyue. She suddenly felt like she was about to get married, and Sha Zhu also felt a little sorry for her.

"I came back yesterday, and we'll go get the certificate in two days." He Yuyu said calmly.

She hates Si Zhu so much that she doesn't want to say anything to him. Anyway, when she gets married, she won't come back. Out of sight, out of mind, she has persuaded Si Zhu more than once to keep him away from Qin Huairu.

Oh, I didn't expect him to marry Qin Huairu. Now he can't even have children, and Qin Huairu won't let Banggeng change his surname. Then their old He family will be over, and there will be nothing to miss.

"That's good. When you get married, I can be considered as worthy of our mother's spirit in heaven." Silly Zhu said while drinking wine.

"By the way, brother, how much dowry have you prepared for me when I get married?" He Yuyu originally didn't want to ask for a dowry from Silly Zhu. Isn't this the case that the old He family is broken? If you keep the money, you will spend it on others, so it is better to give it to others.

I, after giving birth to a child, I can say that I have half the blood of the old He family.

Silly Zhu was stunned for a moment after hearing He Yuyu's words. He really hadn't thought about this. He turned to look at Qin Huairu. Qin Huairu was keeping all the money at home. He didn't have much money in his pocket. He usually made money by doing wedding banquets for others.

He spent all the money he had to buy wine. He didn't even think about saving it. Anyway, Qin Huairu would come up with the money if he needed it.

Qin Huairu heard that He Yuyu asked her for a dowry, which was fine. Even if she didn't give her a betrothal gift, she still had to pay for it from her own family. So she immediately said:

"Yu Yu, their family didn't give us a bride price, so we can't give our family a dowry and they don't give us a bride price, right?"

"Here you go, it's in my hand." He Yuyu stared at Qin Huairu to see if she had anything else to say. She had to decide on the dowry. Anyway, if she didn't want it, she would leave it to outsiders. It's not like the family didn't have money, she knew.

With her brother's salary plus the usual wedding banquets, although the monthly income is not as much as that of the elder brother, it can still be ranked high in this courtyard.

Qin Huairu wanted to scold the public, "You don't want to keep this gift to your family, but you also want your family to give you a dowry. How can you be so shameless?"

"Yu Yu, didn't your brother buy you a bicycle and a watch before? These are two big items. Take these two things and count them as dowry from our family."

He Yuyu lowered his head while eating the food and didn't answer anything. Silly Zhu's face didn't look very good either. He bought these two things for He Yuyu when he was in school. It's been so many years. It's a bit unreasonable to bring them out to talk about things now.

.

The uncle was drinking wine nearby and did not speak to Yuyu. After all, the water thrown by his married daughter would not be of much help to Yuyu after she got married. He did not want to offend Qin Huairu because of He Yuyu.

.

Qin Huairu: "Zhuzi, you don't understand the situation of our family. The whole family eats and drinks, and my mother-in-law has to buy medicine every month and still save money. It's not that I don't want to give to the family. I really have no money. After the New Year,

Bangge and Xiaodang still have to pay tuition."

When Shazhu heard what Qin Huairu said, he didn't know whether it was true or not. He could only look at the first man and wanted to borrow some money from him.

"Zhuzhu, Huai Ru is right. It would be good if Yu Yu marryes with these two big things. Look at the young man getting married in our courtyard. That girl brought a bicycle watch when she got married?"

Silly Zhu heard Qin Huairu and the first man say this, and after thinking about it, it was true. Among the people who got married in the courtyard, most of the women only brought a quilt. He Yuyu's conditions were already good, and he also had a bicycle and a watch.

, although they were bought second-hand and have been used for several years.

He Yuyu saw that Shazhu was persuaded by Qin Huairu and the uncle, and felt a chill in his heart. It wasn't that she insisted on how much money Shazhu spent on her, she just wanted to see Shazhu's attitude and whether he had treated her like this

My sister keeps it in mind.

After all, she only has a relative in the family, Silu Zhu. Her mother passed away, and her father followed the widow to Baocheng. Now Si Zhu doesn't care about her anymore, and it seems that there is no need for him to come back in the future.
