To get rich quickly, you need to be simple and rough

Being the mistress of the house is never a given for nothing. It was different for He Yuzhu with my mother's management, and his marriage was indeed much smoother in those years.

After Xu Damao's lesson, the group of people in the courtyard who were jealous of others doing well have restrained themselves, after all, the other person's biological parents are there.

How could a parent watch their child unable to find a wife? In his previous life, He Yuzhu was unlucky because of the gossips of these people.

In this life, with his parents watching over him, He Yuzhu will soon be single. There is an old saying that if you don't listen to the advice of the elderly, you will suffer the consequences.

Although Chen Shufen is not good-looking, she comes from a well-off family and is efficient in her work.

The two sides quickly discussed the issue of the bride price. He Daqing has always had a skilled wife who can make a living, otherwise he would not have been able to afford the three main rooms in the central courtyard.

This is the best location. It was where the owner lived before, and the layout is also the best.

He Daqing hired a bricklayer to separate out a room and a half on the west side to make a wedding room for his son.

This is very rare in Beijing. A newly married couple can live in their own house and does not have to sleep in the same room with their parents.

He Daqing and his wife re-hung the ceiling of the house and bought blue flower paper to re-paper the walls.

The walls were re-plastered and the floor was re-cemented. The whole house was clean and tidy.

Everyone in the courtyard looked at all this with envy. This was what marriage was like. Everything was new.

The new kang was covered with a kang mat with the word "Fu" on it, and on top of it were four sets of neat satin quilts, all of which were made by Quanfu people, whom He Daqing's wife had asked.

What is a completely blessed person? It is a blessed person who has both children and parents, and has thirty-six legs on the ground that everyone envies.

There was a new double bed in the small compartment, a large wardrobe with four doors against the wall, and a chest of drawers and a desk next to the kang.

There was also a new eight-immortal table and four armchairs in the compartment. This was because the new house prepared by the He family was spacious. Most people's houses were too cramped to accommodate these things.

Although they were just ordinary elm furniture, they made all the neighbors in the courtyard envious.

The four major items are so special that no one can be jealous of them. This is what it means to have a strong alliance.

The He family bought a sewing machine and a pair of watches for He Yuzhu and Chen Shufen. Chen Shufen's family also gave them a bicycle and a radio.

In addition, Chen Shufen's family also gave four sets of new bedding as a gift, which was unique in the Siheyuan. The couple received eight new sets of luggage when they got married.

As for the betrothal gift, He Daqing took out 666,660 silver certificates to give his in-laws enough face.

In this life, with his parents taking care of things, He Yuzhu happily went to the street office to get a marriage certificate. Although he was not very satisfied at first, He Yuzhu was not really stupid.

Although Chen Shufen is not as pretty as Qin Huairu, she has the qualifications! What her parents said makes sense. Can being pretty be enough to make a living?

Chen Shufen's dowry was quite large, and everyone in the courtyard was envious. Qin Huairu, on the other hand, only had a small bundle and a set of cotton-padded jacket and trousers that were neither new nor worn.

There is no way they can be compared. The fact that she has a formal job makes her far superior to Qin Huairu.

So everyone must have a skill to make a living at all times. He Daqing has made a lot of money with his skill over the years.

The father and son get a salary every month from the steel mill, but the key is that they also have outside income. The annual income from cooking for others is higher than their salary.

Without the burden of the White Widow in this life, He Daqing and his son are definitely high-income people.

On the eighth day of the twelfth lunar month, the fire in the big stove in the courtyard was burning brightly, and He Daqing's fellow apprentices were sweating profusely in front of the stove. There were more than 30 tables set up in the front and back yards.

He Daqing bought a pig to cook, which he also learned from the Jia family. Every dish contains more or less meat.

Not to mention the large meat dishes and whole fish, it was a first-class feast in that day and age.

Good things need good people to make them. He Daqing's circle is full of chefs, and any one of them is a great chef.

As soon as the delicious food was served, everyone was smiling from ear to ear. Of course, the gifts were also quite a lot.

Chen Shufen's family was also very satisfied. Her in-laws made them look good. When the bride's family came to see her off, they all praised Chen Shufen for her good marriage when they saw the feast.

He Daqing's wife was also a good person. In addition to the cost of the banquet, she earned 2.16 million silver coupons from the gifts she received, and gave them all to Chen Shufen.

Chen Shufang quickly declined: "Mom, that's unreasonable. We've been busy preparing the banquet. This money should be kept by you and my dad."

The mother-in-law glanced at her daughter-in-law with a look of disapproval: "Don't be polite with me, this family business will belong to you two sooner or later. You just got married and have no money, so just keep this money in your pocket."

Chen Shufen's impression of her mother-in-law improved in more than one way. Chen Shufen is efficient at work.

After everyone finished eating, Chen Shufen stared at her own leftovers. She quickly folded them back in a bowl, showing none of the shyness of a new bride.

Seeing Jia Zhang's toothache, she thought the He family's food was really rich and juicy. She even planned to take the opportunity to take back a pot for herself.

Jia Zhang curled her lips and said, "This Chen guy is really a tiger. This kid Sha Zhu is really a fool with good fortune!"

He glanced at his daughter-in-law Qin Huairu again: "Being pretty doesn't make a living. Look, she not only has a good job, but also has a dowry.

You don't have to feel like you're at a disadvantage. How can you compare to him? Chen's face isn't as good as yours, but he's way better than you in every way!

Qin Huairu didn't dare to speak, because she really had nothing to say. She used to be so complacent that she thought she was no worse than the girls in the city.

She liked the passionate looks from the young men in the courtyard, and for a while she thought that if she hadn't gotten married.

Young men in the city lined up to propose to her, but Chen Shufen's entry seemed to pour a bucket of cold water on her head.

If she were a man, she would also marry someone like Chen Shufen. Look at He Yuzhu, he has all four major requirements for marriage.

He Yuzhu is no longer dissatisfied at all. As a man who cares about reputation, Chen Shufen has made him gain enough face.

The newlyweds lived a sweet life, and Chen Shufen's life was not bad either, she would come home from work and eat ready-made meals every day.

Her cooking skills are not as good as her sister-in-law's, so cooking is not a big deal for the He family's cooks.

Moreover, He Daqing and his father have few children and earn a lot. They also have lunch boxes to bring with them every day, and what they bring is not a big pot of food.

Those were serious special cooking materials, and there was always meat and fish in the house. He Yushui was no longer the bamboo-like figure of his previous life.

The girl with a rosy little face was obviously a well-bred one. Three days later, He Yuzhu came back to her parents' home on a bicycle, and Chen Shufen returned happily with four boxes of gifts.

This was truly a powerful alliance. Since the Chen family worked in the cannery, the He family never lacked a variety of fruits and meats.
