He Yuzhu's palm felt warm, and an electric current ran through it. Her heart was filled with warmth, and a soft corner of her heart was touched.
Because the camera was too high-profile, many customers of Old Mo Restaurant paid attention to He Yuzhu. Coincidentally, Guan Xiaoguan was holding He Yuzhu's hand, and this scene was witnessed by everyone.
"Ouch."
"Yo."
"Impressive!"
"What a hooligan!"
"She's still a female hooligan."
……
Holding hands without the purpose of marriage was a hooligan.
In the 1960s, men and women were a big problem. Uncle Guan was so shocked that he stomped his feet and scolded him angrily.
"Little lazy cat! What are you doing!"
"He Yuzhu and I are friends regardless of age! This, this, this commotion, isn't it a mess of seniority!”
Uncle Guan was also quite sly. He felt that He Yuzhu was 29 years old, 11 years older than his granddaughter. They were not a good match. Therefore, he acknowledged He Yuzhu as his brother regardless of age and became sworn brothers. In the future, there would be a reason for the two families to interact.
However, Guan Xiaoguan was acting like a hooligan in front of He Yuzhu!
Guan Xiaoguan pouted and said.
"Grandpa, I'm already 18. An 18-year-old girl can get married."
"Besides, now that the college entrance examination has been canceled, I can't go to university.”
In that era, women were shy and reserved. There were very few girls who were so proactive. Master Guan was shocked, but He Yuzhu admired Guan Xiaoguan's straightforwardness.
"Nonsense! What marriage certificate at such a young age! There's nothing to say!"
Uncle Guan winked anxiously.
He Yuzhu understood and immediately added.
"Master Guan, it has been delivered to your house! After I'm done with the 72 legs, I'll go to the Guan family to propose marriage!”
The third transition was a bicycle, a watch, a sewing machine, and a radio. Whoever could offer a betrothal gift for the third transition was definitely a good choice. The 72 legs referred to the large wooden bed, large wooden table, large wardrobe, cabinets, and chairs.
People with more status could even produce a television. However, the black-and-white television set in the 1960s was a luxury among luxury goods. It was useless even if there were tickets. One had to get a recommendation letter from a reputable person, and even more so from a unit. Whoever had a black-and-white television at home was definitely a big shot!
He Yuzhu had no way to get a black-and-white television, but he was looking forward to the day he could watch television.
Uncle Guan was dumbfounded.
"Three turns and one ring?"
"He Yuzhu, the last time you sent a sewing machine to my house, you even rode a bicycle and wore a watch.”
Uncle Guan almost fainted.
He had thought that He Yuzhu had taken a fancy to his collection or wanted to join his sect to learn his skills. He did not expect He Yuzhu to actually want to kidnap his precious granddaughter?
"Aiya, you young man, you're really scheming!”
Uncle Guan had never expected that He Yuzhu would be able to easily trick the lazy cat away after only coming to the Guan family twice.
Ruthless!
He didn't count!
Guan Xiaoguan was very happy, and so was He Yuzhu.
"Little Guan, take this watch. I'll get a female Phoenix bicycle later. The kit is ready."
"I'll go to your house to ask for your hand in marriage after I'm done with my 72 legs.”
Guan Xiaoguan and He Yuzhu looked at each other.
Obtained a wife!
The customers of Old Mo's Restaurant stood up spontaneously and gave thunderous applause.
"Good!"
"Blessing!"
"We'll give out wedding candies!"
……
Uncle Guan gritted his teeth in anger. All the influential women in the city were at Old Mo's Restaurant. Once they gossiped, half of the city would know that the granddaughter of the Guan family had been proposed to.
Sigh! He had wanted to be friends regardless of age, but he did not expect to lose his granddaughter.
What a loss!
……
After leaving Old Mo's Restaurant, He Yuzhu hummed a tune in a good mood and rode back to the courtyard house.
"Coral trees are always red in spring, flowers bloom in the wind and waves…"
"Hey, hey, hey…"
After he finished humming the Ode to Coral, he returned to the courtyard house.
The moment he entered the courtyard, he saw Qin Huairu washing the dishes.
He Yuzhu pretended that she didn't see anything. She parked the car and walked into the courtyard.
"Hey, Silly Zhu, stop!"
Qin Huairu wiped her hands and walked over while swaying her butt.
"Where's the two catties of noodles I let you steal last time?”
He Yuzhu looked at Qin Huairu.
Qin Huairu extended her hand and gestured at the stainless steel lunch box at his waist.
Usually, after work, Silly Zhu would hang a stainless steel lunch box around her waist, filled with leftovers from the canteen. Leftovers were much better than white flour buns. There were vegetables, meat, and oil. Sometimes, Shazhu would bring back braised pork, which would make the children cry.
But now, He Yuzhu didn't bring anything with her after work. At most, she would only carry an empty lunch box.
"Comrade Qin Huairu, listen to it yourself.”
He Yuzhu patted the stainless steel lunch box. It was really empty.
Qin Huairu's eyes reddened instantly.
"Silly Zhu, you weren't like this in the past.”
"I'm a woman with a family. I have a mother-in-law and three children. Our family can't even eat steamed buns.”
The more Qin Huiru spoke, the more aggrieved she felt. Tears fell from her eyes.
Second Aunt was peeking over, her face full of gossip.
He Yuzhu quickly whispered.
"Comrade Qin Huairu, please don't blackmail me.”
"You won't play the trick of tearing clothes and pulling buttons again, right? You'll be the one to lose face later."
Qin Huairu raised her flirtatious eyes and stared straight at He Yuzhu with tears in her eyes, feeling wronged and resentful.
"Silly Zhu, tell me honestly, are you dating Yu Haitang?”
"You don't like my Qin Jingru, do you? During the day, I went to the broadcast room to look for Yu Haitang. She spoke with a sharp tongue and didn't ask me to care about your business.”
He Yuzhu laughed in anger.
Why did he have something to do with Yu Haitang?
"Alright, I'll go find Yu Haitang tomorrow and explain this to her. There's nothing between us.”
Only then did Qin Huairu smile. Tears welled up in the corners of her eyes.
"Are you really fine with Yu Haitang?"
"No, Qin Huairu, Yu Haitang and I are fine. Why are you so happy? Do you still want to ask if Ran Qiuye and I are together?”
"I'll tell you right now, Qin Huairu, that Ran Qiuye, I, and Haitang are innocent! Only camaraderie!"
Qin Huairu smiled with tears in her eyes. She was extremely radiant and flirtatious.
"That's more like it. Since you're so affectionate, I can't call you hoho my cousin. Don't even think about my cousin."
He Yuzhu knew what Qin Huairu was thinking. This woman wanted to love Silly Zhu, but she had too many scruples and didn't dare to. She was scheming and possessive. In the end, she tied Silly Zhu to her side and almost made him lose his family.
She was also a pitiful woman that people hated.
"Sigh, Qin Huairu, it's wrong of you to say that I'm sentimental. I don't have that kind of intention towards your cousin.”
"I have to go to the girl's house to propose marriage next month. I'm such a good man. I'll definitely be devoted, right?”
Clang!
Qin Huairu was stunned. Her hand slipped and the bowl fell to the ground.
Jia Zhang-shi's scolding came from the room.
"Broken bowl? This costs a few cents!"
