Chapter 357 Going to the Master's House

He Yuzhu replied: "This is a secret! I can't tell you now. I will tell you when we are both in our seventies or eighties and look through our marriage certificate again."

Lou Xiao'e said: "What if you forget it later?!"

He Yuzhu replied: "There is only one possibility. That is, I have Alzheimer's disease."

"Tsk! How can someone as smart as you get Alzheimer's?! There are many people with Alzheimer's. If you don't want to talk about it, don't talk about it." After saying that, Lou Xiao'e stuffed the marriage certificate in her hand into He Yuzhu's hand and asked, "Where are we going next?!"

He Yuzhu smiled and asked, "Where do you want to go?!"

Lou Xiao'e then asked: "Can't you be more domineering and just say go home?!"

He Yuzhu replied: "We are already an old married couple. There is no need to rush. Anyway, we have plenty of time now. I will accompany you wherever you want to go."

Seeing He Yuzhu's sincere answer, Lou Xiao'e smiled and said, "Let's go home!" After that, Lou Xiao'e sat on the back seat of the bicycle and urged, "Let's go!"

"Let's go!" He Yuzhu smiled and got on his bicycle, taking Lou Xiao'e to the courtyard.

Lou Xiao'e rested her head on He Yuzhu's back and asked, "Zhuzi, what were you laughing at just now?!"

He Yuzhu replied: "It reminded me of what a girl said to a boy when I was in Hong Kong."

Lou Xiaoe asked: "What?!"

He Yuzhu said: "The girl doesn't like the boy. She said she would rather cry in a BMW than laugh on a bicycle."

Lou Xiaoe said, "This girl is so superficial! Riding a bicycle doesn't mean she has no money. Maybe she is the daughter of a rich family and wants to experience life. Or maybe she will be successful in the future?! I am different from her. I would rather laugh on the back of a bicycle than cry in a BMW. It is said that once you enter a wealthy family, it is like entering a deep sea. Once you enter a wealthy family, what freedom can you have?!"

He Yuzhu said: "So I take a laissez-faire attitude towards my children. I will only add icing on the cake for them, not help them in times of need."

Lou Xiao'e smiled and said, "He Yuzhu! The four children heard what you said. Aren't you afraid that they will pull out your oxygen tube in the future?!"

He Yuzhu couldn't help laughing and said, "Don't you still have the one you gave birth to for me?!"

"Bah! How dare you say that?!" Lou Xiao'e bashed He Yuzhu shyly and said, "We are already in our early forties. Have another child?! We will be nearly seventy when the child grows up?!"

He Yuzhu said: "So what if we are seventy?! We are not buried in the ground yet?!"

Lou Xiao'e thought about it and felt that what He Yuzhu said made some sense. She said, "Let's just go with the flow!"

In a blink of an eye, it was five o'clock in the afternoon. He Yushui returned home after get off work. Qian Cuihua saw that He Yushui's bicycle basket was full of vegetables and asked, "Yushui, why did you buy so many vegetables?!"

He Yushui replied, "Mom! I saw my brother this morning. He said he would bring his sister-in-law over for dinner in the evening."

Qian Cuihua asked in surprise: "Your brother is back?!"

"Yeah!" He Yushui responded, and then said, "Yongting is working overtime at the company. He will be back later today."

Fan Changming came out of the house at this time and said, "What's going on with Yongting?! Do you have so much work to do in your factory?!"

He Yushui said, "They have a new head of the technical department. I don't know why he always causes trouble for Yongting."

Fan Changming said: "Please persuade Yongting to change his job if he is not comfortable with it."

He Yushui said, "Dad! It's difficult for Yongting to change jobs at his age now."

"Since changing jobs is troublesome, then don't do it!" He Yuzhu said as he brought Lou Xiao'e in from outside.

"Brother! Sister-in-law!" He Yushui greeted them and asked, "If we don't go to work, what will we eat?!"

He Yuzhu said: "Don't go to work, go study!"

"Study?!" Fan Changming, Qian Cuihua and He Yushui asked in unison.

He Yuzhu said, "If you don't make progress, you will be eliminated. The technology in China is still in the 1950s and 1960s. It is a full 100 years behind the outside world. If you want to catch up, you can't just work in isolation. Since Yongting is not happy in the factory, let's change the environment. Yushui will go out with Yongting. This way, you two can take care of each other."

He Yushui said: "Brother, even if we want to go out, we don't have the means or money!"

He Yuzhu winked at Lou Xiaoe secretly. Lou Xiaoe said, "You call me sister-in-law. They say that a sister-in-law is like a mother. I can't ignore you, your sister-in-law. I will cover all the expenses for your studies. If you feel bad about it, just consider it as a loan. When you finish your studies and make money, you can pay me back."

To be honest, He Yushui is a little tempted now. But it's useless for her to be tempted, she still needs her man's approval. He Yushui said: "Wait a while until Yongting comes back, I'll ask him."

"Okay!" Lou Xiao'e echoed, looked at Fan Changming and Qian Cuihua, and called out with a smile: "Master and Master's Wife!"

"Hey!" Fan Changming and Qian Cuihua responded in unison. He Yuzhu asked, "Yushui, where are the children?!"

Qian Cuihua said, "Don't mention it! Xiaoli and Tiantian's children play well together and are inseparable almost every day. If they don't have dinner at their aunt's house, they will never come back."

"Mom! You said something wrong today!" Just then Fan Tian came in from outside with a group of children.

He Yuzhu saw several children, all of whom looked dusty and dirty, and asked, "What's wrong with them?!"

Fan Tian said, "What else can we do?! Our parents were called in for a group fight."

"Hey?! You little guys are really good!" He Yuzhu gave the kids a thumbs up, then squatted down and asked, "Tell your uncle, what's going on?!"

Fan Tian's son Lu Minde said, "Uncle, it's not that we want to fight, but they are too bullying. They always bully our sister. Do you think they deserve a beating?!"

He Yuzhu echoed, "You really deserve a beating! Tomorrow your uncle will go to your school and have a good talk with your principal. School is a place to study, not a place to be bullied." Then he asked, "How are your boxing training going? You didn't slack off, did you?!"

Several little guys answered in unison: "Uncle, don't worry! We are not lazy!" Then they showed off their pitiful little muscles one by one.

Fan Tian slapped his forehead and said, "Brother Zhuzi, you can't spoil them like this! If you continue like this, they will become even more lawless."

He Yuzhu said, "I pamper when I should, and follow the rules when I should." Then he changed the subject and said, "You came at the right time. Take back the gifts that your sister-in-law and I brought back from Gangcheng."

"Oh!" Fan Tian responded. Qian Cuihua then said, "Don't stand at the door. Let's go inside to chat." After saying that, Qian Cuihua took the dishes from He Yushui and went to the kitchen.

Walking into the living room, He Yuzhu took out a cigarette case, took out two cigarettes, and handed one to Fan Changming. Then he took out a lighter to help Fan Changming light a cigarette, and lit one for himself. At this time, He Yushui came in from outside with a letter and said, "Brother, you are going to get married. I wrote to Dad and told him. This is his reply to you."

He Yuzhu took the letter and asked, "Why did you tell him about this?" Then He Yuzhu tore open the envelope, took out the letter and started reading it. He Yuzhu quickly read the contents of the letter and handed it to Lou Xiaoe.

Lou Xiao'e took the letter and read it, then said, "Your father's blessing is better than nothing."
