Siheyuan: Breaking off an engagement? Thanking the grace of not marrying

The three little girls in my family are all growing up, and their shoes are becoming too tight for their feet.

Although her family is better off now, Ma Hongxia still thinks that the shoes she makes are the best.

She is mending shoes now.

At this time, two people walked in.

Ma Hongxia looked up and saw the two people coming, and a look of surprise appeared on her face.

When Liu Jianshe was around, he would often call Sha Zhu along.

Zhang Xiuying would also be invited, but she never came.

Moreover, ever since Yi Zhonghai was imprisoned by the government, Zhang Xiuying rarely visited him...

Ma Hongxia was still a little surprised when Sha Zhu brought Zhang Xiuying over.

Ma Hongxia asked, "Shazhu, Xiuying, what are you two doing here?"

Faced with Ma Hongxia's eyes, Zhang Xiuying was embarrassed to meet her gaze, and instead looked at Sha Zhu.

Sha Zhu knew that at this time, he had to stand up bravely.

"Auntie, Xiuying and I came to see you right now because we really need your help with something."

Ma Hongxia was very keenly aware of the way Sha Zhu addressed Zhang Xiuying.

Not Aunt Xiuying, but Xiuying...

Liu Jianshe had mentioned this matter to Ma Hongxia before.

Ma Hongxia always felt that Liu Jianshe was joking.

But now it seems that Liu Jianshe was not joking, everything Liu Jianshe said was true!

After having a rough guess in her mind, Ma Hongxia's surprise subsided.

She looked at Sha Zhu and said, "It's okay. As the eldest lady in the courtyard, if you have any difficulties, just tell me. If I can help, I will definitely help."

Sha Zhu also saw the change in Ma Hongxia's expression just now.

It can be said that the current situation between him and Zhang Xiuying was entirely within Liu Jianshe's calculations.

So it is not surprising that Ma Hongxia knew about this matter.

And, this is just the beginning.

Ma Hongxia knew about it tonight, and tomorrow, maybe everyone else in the hospital will know about it...

During this period of time, Sha Zhu has been working on his mental preparation.

Especially after Yi Zhonghai and Zhang Cuihua got married...

Sha Zhu would often help Zhang Xiuying with psychological support.

so now……

Sha Zhu looked at Ma Hongxia and said, "Auntie, I would like you to write a letter of introduction for Xiuying and me. We want to get married tomorrow."

Ma Hongxia's pupils shrank!

Even though she had guessed this, she was still a little surprised when she heard it with her own ears.

"Have you guys...really thought it through?"

Ma Hongxia hesitated for a moment and did not agree immediately.

After all, there is a huge age difference between Sha Zhu and Zhang Xiuying.

and……

The yard is already a bit messy now...If the two of them get married, it will really be a mess.

How will Yi Zhonghai react then?

Sha Zhu's eyes showed determination, "Auntie, since Xiuying and I came to you, we have considered it again and again. Xiuying's first half of her life was not happy at all. She was too wronged. From now on, I want to be with her openly and honestly, and I want her to live a good life."

Ma Hongxia looked at Zhang Xiuying again, "Xiuying, what do you think?"

Zhang Xiuying knew that it was time to face the problem. She nodded and said, "Hongxia... We all live in the middle courtyard. I think you should know best how I lived in the past."

"Although Yi Zhonghai was a rich man and a sixth-level fitter at that time...he was very frugal in his life. But he often donated generously to the Jia family."

"For so many years, I have not been able to have children... He blames me... He told others that I have gynecological problems. But is that really the case..."

Having said that, Zhang Xiuying touched her belly with her hand.

Ma Hongxia's pupils shrank when she saw this scene, "You...you wouldn't..."

Sha Zhu's face also changed. He couldn't expect Zhang Xiuying to say this.

He is not married to Zhang Xiuying yet, nor are they engaged...

Ma Hongxia is not only an old lady in the yard, but also a clerk in the street office.

If Ma Hongxia investigates this matter, it would be considered as having an affair!

The lightest punishment is to parade through the streets with a torn shoe hanging on it!

This is not what Shazhu wants to see.

Zhang Xiuying looked at Ma Hongxia and said, "It's just as you thought."

Ma Hongxia nodded, smiled at the somewhat nervous Sha Zhu, and said, "Congratulations to you two. I will issue you the letters of introduction when I get to the street office tomorrow. You can come anytime tomorrow."

Sha Zhu breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Thank you, Auntie!"

Ma Hongxia smiled and said, "I am very pleased with what you said, Shazhu. You have indeed grown up and have taken on the responsibilities that a man should have. I think Xiuying will live a good life with you in the future. Here, I wish you two all the best."

Sha Zhu also smiled, with wrinkles on his eyes. "Hey, that's my way of thanking you, Auntie! Well, it's getting late now, Xiuying and I won't disturb you to rest! We'll come to the neighborhood office to find you tomorrow morning!"

Looking at the backs of Sha Zhu and Zhang Xiuying leaving, Ma Hongxia felt a little sad.

This love story was chosen by Liu Jianshe...

Now seeing the happy expressions on their faces, this can't be considered a random matchmaking, right?

But Yi Zhonghai...

Ma Honghai was really looking forward to it. What would Yi Zhonghai's reaction be then?

the other side……

Yang Qingbin's home...

Yang Qingbin and Lao Guan also had three rounds of drinks.

At this moment, the two of them were sitting at the gate of the courtyard, enjoying the warm evening breeze.

"Old Guan, I have advised you many times that the mouth is the source of trouble... I am looking for you to drink tonight because I want to have a good talk with you about this matter."

Lao Guan had actually guessed that Yang Qingbin hadn't invited him to drink for many years.

I'm inviting him to drink tonight, so he must have something to talk about.

This matter must be about him offending Li Huaide.

The old manager looked at Yang Qingbin with some trepidation and said, "Director Yang... I know... but this is my personality, I just have a bad mouth... You know me..."

Yang Qingbin sighed and said, "If it was someone else, I would mediate. At most you could treat them to a meal and the matter would be over."

"But the other party is Li Huaide, the deputy director of logistics who was transferred from the Ministry of Industry. It is said that a new official will start with three fires upon taking office. This is his first day in office, and he hasn't even started yet, but you are mocking him."

"The leader cares most about his reputation. Your words have embarrassed him in front of so many people in the kitchen. Tell me yourself, is this appropriate?"
