Chapter 288: You are all waiting for me
It was noon, and Yang Xiaotao returned home.
There were still a few people in the room surrounding Ran Qiuye to guide them, and Yang Xiaotao didn't even look to see what was going on.
Go to the kitchen, take out a piece of meat from the space, then go to the yard to pick two tomatoes, and start cooking.
After a while, the aroma of the food made several people in the room aware of the meal, and they made an appointment with Ran Qiuye to come back in the afternoon before going home.
Ran Qiuye put down her work and sat at the table looking at the two dishes on the table, a stir-fried pork, a scrambled egg with tomatoes, and a bowl of noodles on the side.
Yang Xiaotao filled a bowl for her, "What are you doing?"
As he said this, he looked towards the sewing machine.
“Don’t look, don’t look.”
“You’ll know when it’s done!”
Ran Qiuye reached out and covered Yang Xiaotao's face.
“Okay, it’s a surprise, so I won’t watch it.”
Yang Xiaotao smiled, waiting for the surprise to arrive.
In the afternoon, Ran Qiuye continued to work in the house, while Yang Xiaotao said hello, picked up the fishing rod with Uncle Chen, and left the yard.
Tonight, let’s celebrate.
At two o'clock in the afternoon, Yang Xiaotao returned to the courtyard with the fish bucket. The big fish swimming inside made everyone who saw it envious.
Yang Xiaotao’s fishing skills are well known and he is recognized as a master.
After putting the fish away and looking at Ran Qiuye, who was buried in front of the sewing machine in the room, Yang Xiaotao did not disturb her.
Pick up the books you have read from the bookshelf, move a chair and sit in the yard, review the old and learn the new.
In the evening, the system prompt sounded, and Yang Xiaotao put down the book. At this time, he had finished reading the whole book.
"Thirty credits, another step forward!"
Yang Xiaotao put the book back into the room, and then saw Ran Qiuye walking over with the finished product.
"Try it?"
In front of Yang Xiaotao was a pair of gray thumb gloves, cotton gloves, connected with a blue belt in the middle. They were simply old-fashioned.
Yang Xiaotao has gloves. The leather gloves he exchanged from the exchange column will not freeze no matter how cold the weather is.
But this is what Ran Qiuye did with great difficulty. Just make it as earthy as possible. It’s all full of love!
Yang Xiaotao stretched out his hand to put it on, then put the bag behind his head.
"It's good, warm!"
As he said this, he flexed his fingers. Ran Qiuye on the side was very happy, and then he jumped on the sewing machine again.
There is still some extra cloth and cotton. He wants to make more for his younger brothers and sisters.
Yang Xiaotao watched Ran Qiuye's interest and did not bother him. He walked aside and started cooking.
In the evening, a dish of braised fish, a pot of braised pork, fried eggs, fried peanuts, four dishes and a tomato soup were placed on the table.
Yang Xiaotao took out another bottle of wine, while Ran Qiuye looked on.
“Why do you make so much and can’t eat it!”
“What day is it today? Don’t celebrate!”
Yang Xiaotao said, licking the wine cup full, and Ran Qiuye also poured a glass in front of him.
Ran Qiuye naturally knows how to drink, but not much.
"Qiuye! Thank you, marry me!"
Yang Xiaotao picked up the wine glass, and the two of them looked at each other in the room.
“I, I thank you too~”
Ran Qiuye said.
The meaning of the two people's words is as if there is no other, one is not married and the other is not married.
Suddenly, the two looked at each other and smiled.
Bang
The wine cups clinked together and Yang Xiaotao drank it all in one gulp.
Ran Qiuye tastes it and stops.
“Eat!”
“This is the fish I caught today. Let me tell you, this fish is amazing. You can only catch it if your man is so good!”< br>
Yang Xiaotao placed a piece of fish backbone in Ran Qiuye's bowl.
“Really! Then I also want to learn!”
The rice cooked by Yang Xiaotao was delicious, and Ran Qiuye knew it. He ate the fish slowly and didn't forget to praise it.
"Of course it's true, but if you want to learn, you have to pay the tuition!"
Ran Qiuye raised his head, then saw Yang Xiaotao's appearance, thought of something embarrassing, and immediately lowered his head, "Who wants to learn!"
"Haha"
The two of them were having a warm dinner. Silly Zhu was pinching peanuts in the middle courtyard, feeling depressed.
After get off work, Shazhu carried his lunch box and went to the third aunt in the street office to ask her to find a partner for him.
Unexpectedly, as soon as he entered the door and explained his intention, he was forced out by the third aunt in a few words. Silly Zhu was completely confused.
In the courtyard, who wouldn’t say good things to him?
Master, don’t the deaf old ladies always say that he respects the elderly?
And Sister Xiao Qin, when did you not praise him for his enthusiasm?
He has always been willing to help others!
How come you are not welcome when you come to Sangu’s place?
You also said that he has a problem with his personality?
Silly Zhu couldn’t figure it out, let alone accept it.
The character he regarded as his pride was actually looked down upon by others. This left him with nowhere to release his complaints, so he could only close the door and drink.
His nose twitched, the smell of roasted fish came, and Silhu closed his eyes in discomfort.
Today, Yang Xiaotao received his certificate. Now, the two of them should be eating.
But it is difficult for him to find a partner.
There is no one to eat with.
When he thought of the long night and being alone and unable to sleep, Shazhu's dull heart became hot.
"You idiots, just wait for me!"
"You look down on each one of them, right? Wait, wait"
After waiting for a long time, Silly Zhu didn't shout out the reason. .
Pick up the bottle and drink it in one gulp.
This autumn night is a bit cold.
In the dark alley, in the narrow house, the dim light cannot escape from the window, like a trapped chrysalis.
Li Huaide got dressed and was smoking a cigarette.
The woman in front of him made him feel like a man. This feeling, this dignity, could never be felt by that powerful tigress.
He stretched out his hand to pull the woman up on the bed and looked at the charming face so close. If his body hadn't been unable to keep up, he would have really wanted to...
The woman stretched out her fingers and stroked Li Huaide's cheek. "You have to go!"
The woman's voice was full of temptation, which made Li Huaide even more reluctant to give up.
"Yes. It's time for me to go!"
After Li Huaide finished speaking, he pressed his palms hard.
“Today is the last time!”
The woman didn't resist, but her eyes were a little moist.
If you say there is no emotion between two people, you would be deceiving yourself.
But they all know that this kind of feeling is the last thing to have, because they are not from the same place.
Li Huaide held the woman in his arms and rubbed her into his heart.
A long time, a long time!
stand up.
"Leave Sijiu City, leave here."
"Maybe, wait for me..."
Li Huaide did not finish speaking because he could not give an answer.
The woman stood up and hugged Li Huaide from behind.
"I'm leaving!"
"Don't look for me, I will never appear in front of you again..."
Li Huaide held back the tears in his eyes, let go of the woman's arm, stood up and left room.
In the room, the woman looked painful and sat on the bed.
Beside the bedside, there was a stack of various bills and a stack of money. This was all Li Huaide could give her!
"Let's go, find someone, start a family, and never come back."
Li Huaide's voice came through the window, and the woman couldn't hold back her tears anymore and started crying.
She is no longer young, this time...
Li Huaide left the alley with a crunching sound in his hands.
“You, ah~~”
"Just wait for me!"
Siheyuan.
After receiving the certificate, it was natural for Ran Qiuye to live in the courtyard, and he interacted with many people in the courtyard on weekdays.
Although they spend most of their time at Yangjiazhuang School, as the wedding day approaches, the two of them are also busy.
On the weekend, the two returned home to discuss the wedding.
Ran Qiuye held the notebook, while Yang Xiaotao stood aside and thought about things.
Yang Xiaotao has already said that the wedding will be held in the courtyard, but there will be no banquet in the courtyard.
Ran Qiuye also knew the situation in the yard. Some people were an eyesore.
Yang Xiaotao originally wanted to treat everyone to a meal in the restaurant of the steel rolling mill, but considering the recent situation, he rejected the idea.
Finally, Yang Xiaotao remembered the Yongjun Restaurant that he often went to. Although it was not big, it should not be a problem to accommodate four or five tables.
Yang Xiaotao took advantage of his time off work to go to Yongjun Restaurant. The couple both knew Yang Xiaotao and had taken care of their business over the years.
Especially in difficult times, they lend a helping hand. The couple will always remember this kindness in their hearts.
When I heard Yang Xiaotao talk about the wedding banquet this time, I immediately agreed.
National Day is a big day, and not many people come to eat on weekdays. What's more, this banquet is enough for business tasks, and even half a month's performance will be released.
In this way, the place for this banquet has been found.
"There are about ten of us here, we can have a table!"
Ran Qiuye wrote a few names on the paper, including those from her hospital and her former friends.
Yang Xiaotao thought for a moment, and finally said with his fingers.
"In this courtyard, there are two members of Uncle Chen's family! Wang Dashan's family also has several factories. Counting a family of two, there must be more than 20 people! This requires two tables!"
Ran Qiuye remembered, "Where is the child?"
"If the child doesn't come to the table, just follow the woman."
Ran Qiuye nodded, "Xiao Tao, how many of the uncles in this courtyard are not invited?"
"I heard that the third uncle We need to return the favor. Didn’t we lend you a bicycle last time? I want to pay them back!”
“No!”
“If you invite them, don’t you make yourself look bad! You won’t invite any of the three uncles in this courtyard. Just stay in the courtyard and don’t embarrass yourself.”
"Also, you don't know what Yan Fugui means? This family is very calculating. If you let him go, he can take the whole family there, but in the end he will have to mess with you!"
Yang Xiaotao saw through Yan Fugui's plan, and by the way, told the story about the Jia family's full moon drink last time.
Ran Qiuye covered her mouth in disbelief.
"Then I won't invite you! Where are the others?"
Yang Xiaotao nodded, "As the saying goes, white things come uninvited, happy things come uninvited. Others in this yard What is the situation of people? Let them go, isn’t it just asking people for money?”
"We can't do this!"
Yang Xiaotao knows the situation of the residents in the courtyard. The men in Forty-Nine Cities are very respectable these days. Who goes to drink without bringing something? Just a follower?
Ran Qiuye didn't say much after hearing this, "There are also people from Yangjiazhuang!"
"Well, the people from Yangjiazhuang will go back and invite us to a table during the Chinese New Year. I made an agreement with the master."
"This time, just the Grandpa and Uncle Jiu will come up, and it will be enough for one table."
"Finally, I guess there will be a lot of people here at the factory."
Yang Xiaotao patted his forehead, it was really difficult to arrange this person.
"Calculating it this way, five tables is a bit too little."
"If that doesn't work, add another table!"
Yang Xiaotao doesn't care about the money, not to mention the salary increase. Quite a few, even the reward for upgrading the fitter, plus the ten yuan reward for the fishing skill every month are enough.
Ran Qiuye didn't know Yang Xiaotao's family background, and was a little worried. It would be bad if he strained his muscles and bones for this wedding.
Seeing that Yang Xiaotao didn't say anything, she didn't speak either.
“I have already made an agreement with the restaurant about the meals. All the specialty dishes will be served, and the money and bills will be calculated later.”
“I asked my colleagues at the steel rolling mill to help me buy drinks. There are two bottles for each table and one for the women.”
“You also need to prepare cigarettes and buy some candies…”
Yang Xiaotao kept doing the same thing, and Ran Qiuye calculated in his mind that this time there was a lot of money for the banquet.
"That's it for now, the next step is to prepare things..."
Yang Xiaotao looked at Ran Qiuye's record and continued.
In the room, the two discussed until midnight before going to bed to rest.
