It was Yang Yue's birthday on December 18th, which was also a Sunday. He Yuzhu borrowed a tricycle and placed a chair on it. He then cut out a few military raincoats and set up a shed on it. Then, he brought the deaf old lady and his sister to Yang Yue's house in the military retirement home.
He was prepared to cook a feast for Yang Yue to celebrate her birthday.
There were many ingredients on the tricycle. They were all carefully selected by He Yuzhu. He had even slaughtered a jersey cow in his Dimensional Pocket.
Yang Yue's parents had been in the GCD for many years and were staunch GCD members. He Yuzhu did not dare to use all the ingredients that were too expensive, so he only prepared a few net abalones. The rest were pork, beef, mutton, and a big carp from the Yellow River.
Even so, Father Yang criticized her a little. However, when they saw the deaf old lady, Father Yang and Mother Yang immediately greeted her respectfully. They had heard from Yang Yue that He Yuzhu was now supporting an old lady who was a soldier. The old lady's family had been loyal to the country for three generations.
Soldiers respected the family members of such martyrs the most. Father Yang sat in a wheelchair and saluted the Deaf Old Lady. Mother Yang also quickly walked over and helped the Deaf Old Lady sit down.
He Yuzhu brought the rain to greet Father and Mother Yang, then carried the ingredients and went to the kitchen with Yang Yue. He Yushui also wanted to help, but Mother Yang pulled him to the side and sat him down.
Looking at Father Yang, who was sitting in a wheelchair but had a dignified appearance and a powerful aura, He Yushui sat at the side and felt very reserved. The Deaf Old Lady patted He Yushui's back and said to Mother Yang,"It's better to let the little girl help in the kitchen. It's uncomfortable to see her sitting here.”
Mother Yang quickly agreed. She knew that her husband had been leading troops all year round. His face was habitually stern and looked very strict. The little girl would always feel uneasy here.
A few days ago, He Yuzhu told Yang Yue that she was going to invite someone to her house to propose marriage. Yang Yue should have communicated with her parents. They had been dating for half a year, which was considered a long time in this era. Therefore, He Yuzhu planned to propose marriage to Yang Yue on her birthday today.
He Yuzhu didn't have any elders at home, but he treated the deaf old lady as his own grandmother, so he invited the old lady over to propose marriage.
The people of the old Imperial Capital were quite particular about marriage, blind dates, setting up a marriage, choosing a date, setting up a marriage, sending dowry, welcoming the bride, worshipping heaven and earth, dividing the size, meeting the bride, and returning to the family. It was quite complicated.
However, although Father Yang was from the old capital, he had joined the army when he was young and did not pay much attention to these things.
He Yuzhu's family only had two siblings, so there was no need to be so particular. They directly invited the Deaf Old Lady over to propose marriage. It was just a matter of choosing a date.
The custom here in the capital was that "if you don't get married, you don't get married." Therefore, He Yuzhu had to set a date before December.
The deaf old lady liked Yang Yue quite a lot. She only mentioned it to He Yuzhu, saying that Yang Yue's P shares were not big enough and she was afraid that it would be harder to give birth.
Yang Yue was an elegant dancer. Her body was curvy and slender, and her slender legs were very eye-catching.
Yes, it was just that the big honey waves were surging. Even if she was wearing a sweater at this moment, she could still see that some aspects were too prominent. It was just that she was not as fat as everyone valued in this era. Her butt was a little heavy in the front and light in the back.
Whether it was her face or figure, Yang Yue was 99% similar to the big honey. However, when the big honey was 18 years old, she did not seem to have such outstanding advantages. In the photos and TV series in 2007, it could be seen that the big honey was a little approachable. After 11 years, she was full of movement.
While He Yuzhu was busy with Yang Yue and her sister in the kitchen, the three parents in the living room had already set the date. It was on January 22nd, Year 56, the tenth day of the twelfth lunar month. It meant that they were perfect in pairs.
When it was almost noon, Yang Yue's brother and sister-in-law rushed back with their son. Yang Yue's brother, Yang Weiguo, was in the Imperial Garrison Guard Regiment (the Imperial Garrison was still called Jing at this time). Jin Garrison Command, only changed to the Capital Garrison in 1959), was a battalion commander.
Her sister-in-law's name was Li Li. She worked in the military hospital and was on duty this morning. That was why she came back so late. She carried her one-year-old son and followed her husband in. The couple politely greeted the deaf old lady.
The Deaf Old Lady also smiled and nodded at them. However, when she saw the child in their arms, she immediately smiled until her eyes narrowed. The deaf old lady, at this age, especially liked little children. Seeing them holding this tiger-headed little baby, she couldn't help but want to reach out to catch it.
Li Li saw that the Deaf Old Lady was at this age, so she did not dare to let her carry the child. She quickly went over and placed the child in her arms.
The Deaf Old Lady looked at the baby's big black eyes happily. She could not help but tease the baby with her fingers and kept saying,"Good, good, very good."
He Yuzhu did his best to make a table full of delicacies, but he did not dare to serve the net abalone just like that. Two net abalones were too rare even in this day and age. They were all cut in the kitchen before being served.
He accompanied Father Yang and Yang Weiguo to drink a few more cups. At this time, the army did not have a prohibition on alcohol. They were particular about drinking from bowls and tea vats.
In the army, there was no such thing as how much alcohol one could drink. There was no such thing as whether one could drink or not. It was just about whether one could drink or not. If one could not drink, it was fine as long as one had the courage to drink.
Of course, this was a family banquet. They couldn't drink like they did in the army. However, Yang Weiguo was still drunk. Due to his health, Father Yang could only drink a small cup of living blood. He was fine.
He Yuzhu drank a few cups of wine in the beginning, but he cheated with his Dimensional Pocket later. He was afraid that he would say something he shouldn't have.
Rainy had no right to speak at this occasion. Mother Yang liked this little girl very much. She kept putting food in her bowl and asking about her studies and life. However, Father Yang's aura was too strong, and the little girl couldn't let go.
In the afternoon, He Yuzhu rode her tricycle back to the courtyard. When she entered, she saw the street office director, Aunt Wang, accompanying a man in military uniform. They were standing in front of the two empty rooms in the courtyard.
These were the two east rooms next to He Yushui's room. They were facing Jia Dongxu's house and had been empty all along.
He Yuzhu walked in with the Deaf Old Lady on his back and greeted Aunt Wang.""Aunt Wang, are you busy?”
Aunt Wang turned around and saw He Yuzhu carrying the Deaf Old Lady over. She quickly said,"Aiyo, Old Madam, are you asking Zhu Zi to carry you for a walk?”
The Deaf Old Lady scolded her with a smile,"You little girl, why don't you speak in the right way? Is there anyone who carries her around?"”
She smiled and continued,"I went to propose marriage to my eldest grandson.”
Aunt Wang was also very happy when she heard that."Yo, Zhu Zi is getting married. Congratulations. Which family is the bride from?”
He Yuzhu's wish was fulfilled. He smiled from ear to ear and said,"Not from around here. He retired from the army and worked at the district union.”
"You came back from the army," Aunt Wang said with a smile."That's a good relationship. Remember to tell me when you get married." By the way, let me introduce you. This is Xu Haosheng, who just retired from the army. You'll be neighbors from now on. He also works at the Red Star Rolling Mill.”
