Siheyuan: He Yuzhu since 1958

Chapter 288 He Yushui plans to get married, Zhou Qiao enters the factory

He Yuzhu joked, "You two are really inseparable, aren't you?!" Then he ordered, "Sit down for a while, I'll make you some noodles."

"Hey!" He Yushui responded, "Brother, put two eggs in the noodles for both of us!"

"Got it!" He Yuzhu responded and walked into the kitchen.

He Yushui noticed Zhou Qiao beside Huang Ying at this time and asked, "Sister-in-law, who is this girl?!"

Huang Ying said, "She is our sister."

He Yushui was stunned. Huang Ying saw the puzzled expression on He Yushui's face and explained, "Her name is Zhou Qiao. She is the daughter of your fourth uncle's comrade-in-arms. During the big chain reaction a while ago, she fell ill and was met by your brother. He brought her home."

He Yushui asked: "Zhou Qiao, can I call you Qiao'er?!"

Zhou Qiao nodded shyly.

He Yushui then asked, "Qiao'er, how old are you now?!"

Zhou Qiao replied: "14 years old."

When He Yushui heard Zhou Qiao's age, she immediately smiled brightly and said, "I'm finally not the youngest anymore. I have a younger sister too!" Then He Yushui walked over to Zhou Qiao, hooked her arm around her shoulders, and said, "Qiao'er, I'll protect you from now on! I promise you'll have everything you need." Then she asked, "Schools are closed now. How are you going to study when you're so young?!"

He Yuzhu came out of the kitchen carrying two bowls of noodles and said, "I have arranged a job for your brother. She will be an administrator in our factory's information room. Besides, you and Yongting are both college students. You two should not be idle. When you have time, help Qiao'er with her education."

He Yushui said: "Brother, there is no college entrance examination now. What's the point of improving your education?!"

He Yuzhu said: "No matter what time, studying is always useful. Even if there is no college entrance examination now, it does not mean that there will be no college entrance examination in the future! Opportunities are always prepared for those who are prepared. You two come and eat noodles! Otherwise, the noodles will clumping together." After saying that, He Yuzhu put down the bowl and went back to the kitchen, bringing out two plates of dishes.

He Yushui habitually picked up the bowl and took a sip of the soup. His eyes immediately lit up and he asked, "Brother, are we having chicken at home today?!"

He Yuzhu said: "You benefited from Qiao'er's help."

He Yushui smiled and started eating the noodles in big mouthfuls, not forgetting to pick up some dishes for Fan Yongting from time to time.

When He Yushui and Fan Yongting had almost finished eating, He Yuzhu asked, "Tell me! What are you doing back at this time?!"

Fan Yongting secretly exchanged glances with He Yushui, then plucked up his courage and said, "Brother Zhuzi, let me discuss something. Can you marry Yushui to me?!"

He Yuzhu looked at He Yushui. He Yushui lowered her head in embarrassment, not daring to look at He Yuzhu. He Yuzhu pretended to be unhappy, looked at Fan Yongting and asked, "Why did you marry my Yushui?!"

Fan Yongting was immediately stumped by the question. After hesitating for a few seconds, Fan Yongting replied, "I like rain. I want to treat it well for the rest of my life."

He Yuzhu asked: "Is it that simple?!"

Fan Yongting said, "Brother Zhuzi! Don't worry! Yushui will marry me. From now on, Yushui will be the head of the family. Yushui has the final say in the family!"

He Yuzhu looked at He Yushui and asked, "What did you say?!"

He Yushui said coquettishly: "Brother, just agree to it!"

"Puff!" Huang Ying couldn't help laughing. He Yushui looked at Huang Ying with a puzzled look and asked, "Sister-in-law, what's wrong?!"

Huang Ying said, "What a silly girl! In fact, your brother has already seen through what's going on between you two. He was just teasing you!"

He Yuzhu said: "Wife, this is your fault! Don't speak out if you see through it. If you do this, you will have no friends in the future!"

"He Yuzhu! I'll bite you to death!" He Yushui rushed to He Yuzhu. He Yuzhu hugged He Yushui and said, "Okay! You're getting married soon. You're still like a child. How can I, your brother, feel at ease?!"

"Brother!" He Yushui recalled the past when the brother and sister depended on each other after He Daqing left, and she hugged He Yuzhu and started crying.

"Stop crying! Stop crying! It won't look good if you keep crying. Yongting won't want you anymore!" He Yuzhu patted He Yushui's back to comfort her.

"He dares?!" He Yushui replied while wiping her tears and asked, "Brother, do you agree?!"

He Yuzhu said: "It's useless if I agree. We also need the Master and his wife to agree."

Fan Yongting said hurriedly: "Brother Zhuzi, my father and mother have already agreed."

He Yuzhu looked at Fan Yongting again and said, "You are really good! You actually played the trick of acting first and asking for my permission later?!"

Fan Yongting smiled and said, "Aren't you afraid that you won't agree, so you want my parents to do some ideological work?!"

He Yuzhu said, "On Sunday, ask the master and his wife to go to Jingyang Hutong to finalize your marriage. In addition to the dowry originally prepared for Yushui, you will also get a TV. Also, the east wing will belong to Yushui. It's up to you to decide whether to keep it or sell it in the future."

He Yushui hurriedly said: "Brother! I don't want the house!"

He Yuzhu said, "It's settled! If this boy treats you badly in the future, you can come back home and live."

Fan Yongting said, "Brother Zhuzi, I dare not treat Yu Shui badly! If I treat her badly, my father will definitely treat me as the main ingredient in the pig-killing dish."

Huang Ying said, "Yu Shui, just listen to your brother!"

"Sister-in-law!" He Yushui called out shyly, and compromised: "Okay! I'll keep the house. But it can't be left empty. Let Qiaoer live in it! From now on, we will go home every Sunday to help Qiaoer with her cultural studies."

Zhou Qiao was at her adoptive mother's house. Her adoptive mother treated her very well, but she did not feel the real care. Although she had not been in contact with He Yuzhu's family for a long time, Zhou Qiao got the family love she had always dreamed of from He Yuzhu. Zhou Qiao suddenly felt that this illness was an opportunity given to her by God! She must keep this love and righteousness well.

After dinner, He Yuzhu drove Fan Yongting away. He Yushui took Zhou Qiao to the east wing. Huang Ying and He Yuzhu were the only ones left in the main room. Huang Ying nestled in He Yuzhu's arms, listening to He Yuzhu's heartbeat, quietly enjoying the tranquility.

After a while, Huang Ying said softly, "How nice it would be if time just stopped like this?!"

He Yuzhu said: "It is impossible to stop time. But we can grow old together. When we both retire, we can sit here and watch the sunrise and sunset."

Huang Ying joked: "You have a nice idea?!"

He Yuzhu said: "Others pursue power and wealth, I pursue a wife, children and a warm bed. This is what we call different people have different tastes."

There was no conversation that night. The next morning, after breakfast, He Yushui and Huang Ying went to work. He Yuzhu took Zhou Qiao out. On the way to the steel mill, He Yuzhu and Zhou Qiao saw the scene of the house raid. He Yuzhu sighed silently in his heart, and Zhou Qiao fell into reflection. At this time, Zhou Qiao no longer had the enthusiasm he had during the big chain, and now he has returned to reason.

When he was in the steel mill, He Yuzhu first went to the third canteen to arrange the work, and then took Zhou Qiao to find Li Huaide. He got the approval slip from Li Huaide, and then took Zhou Qiao and the people arranged by Li Huaide to the Labor and Capital Office to complete the entry procedures.
