Siheyuan: There are three little cats at home

Chapter 247 Tweaking
Xu Qing was speechless, with mixed thoughts in his heart.

He can understand Silly Zhu's mood.

They are all elder brothers, so they naturally hope that their younger sisters will marry into a good family in the future.

It is best to know the basics and prevent the younger sister from being bullied.

But things like feelings cannot be forced.

Xu Qing went to Ma Jiefang's house last month to show off his cards to Ma Jinghong's mother.

The future mother-in-law thought for a long time and finally nodded.

As for Ma Jiefang, a close friend, he has always been looking forward to Xu Qing's marriage to his fifth sister.

And Ma Guohua, the future father-in-law, knew from the beginning that Xu Qing and Ma Jinghong were dating.

There was no objection at the time, and of course I won’t say anything negative now.

In particular, Xu Qing has been making steady progress in his work in the factory.

This year, I was promoted from Level [-] Clerk to Level [-] Clerk.

The salary increased to 62 yuan per month.

Furthermore, Xu Qing’s younger brothers and sisters have grown up.

And as the chief of the security department, he watched Xu Qing go up step by step in the factory all these years.

Although Xu Qing's performance was not as impressive as when he first entered the factory.

But Ma Guohua also hoped Xu Qing could do this from the bottom of his heart.

These days, the situation is uncertain. If Xu Qing continues to stand out in the factory, it will not be a good thing.

Therefore, Ma Guohua is in favor of this marriage.

In addition, Ma Jinghong's sisters and brother-in-law did not express their views on this matter.

What they mean is that as long as their younger sister Jinghong thinks it's okay, they will naturally not object.

As a result, the marriage of Xu Qing and Ma Jinghong has been finalized for the time being.

But at this time, Xu Qing really didn't know what to say to Silly Zhu. After thinking about it for a while, he thought it was better to just say it.

Xu Qing briefly sorted out the matter in his mind, and then quietly told Sha Zhu.

Silly Zhu's face looked a little unsightly. He stretched out his hand to touch his neck and was speechless for a while.

When Xu Qing saw this, he sighed softly in his heart and said:
"Brother Silly Zhu, can we do well? I always treat Yushui as my younger sister. It's not like you don't know. If you are worried about Yushui, why don't you think about it?"

"Hey, Qingzi, who told you that my sister has no partner?"

Silly Zhu put the half-eaten sweet potato aside and tilted his head, a little unhappy, but remembering Xu Qing's last mention of patriotism, he scratched his head and waved his hand:

"My sister, Yushui, likes you. If you don't want to, then don't be patriotic."

Xu Qing smiled and said nothing, in fact, he was just talking casually.

After sending Silly Zhu away, Xu Qing stood in the courtyard, looking at the snowflakes flying in the sky in the night, and let out a deep breath.

It is the snow season of the year again, the snow falls silently, only the wind howls.

After stomping his feet, Xu Qing turned and went back to the main house, where he and his younger siblings continued to eat roasted sweet potatoes around the stove.

Silly Zhu returned to the middle courtyard with a depressed expression on his face, looking sideways at the rain-lit hut, and wanted to go over and knock on the door to tell his sister what Xu Qing said.

But after thinking about it, I sighed and didn’t dare to say it. I thought I’d better wait for a suitable opportunity to say it.

If I talk about it now, I'm afraid that the rain will be so uncomfortable that I won't be able to sleep tonight.

Early the next morning, the snow stopped and the sky became sunny.

Xu Qing got up early in the morning, and while dressing, he told his third brother who was lying on the kang and sleeping soundly.

"Feng Ming, it's okay this morning. Remember to sweep the snow in the yard. Your second brother and I will go to work first."

After that, Xu Qing put on a scarf, and after Xu Aiguo finished packing, the two brothers walked outside the house together.
In the courtyard outside the house, a layer of white snow had fallen, Xu Qing let out a sigh of relief, and walked out on the snow with patriotism.

At this time, Shazhu was waiting for Qin Huairu in the middle courtyard again.

At this moment, the sky was not completely bright yet. Silly Zhu shrank down and saw Xu Qing and Aiguo coming over. He walked to Xu Qing and turned to shout to his sister Yuyu who was also preparing to go out to work.

He Yuyu was wearing a blue cotton-padded jacket with small floral patterns and woolen gloves. When he saw Xu Qinghe Aiguo, he took the initiative to say hello.

Xu Qing knew what Shazhu meant, and after nodding to Yushui, he turned to look at Shazhu.

Silly Zhu pretended to be fine, turned his back and looked at the door of Jia's house.

After a while, Qin Huairu also came out of the room.

Everyone walked towards the alley outside the compound together.

In the alley, Qin Huairu and Yu Yu walked together.

Xu Qing squeezed together with his second brother and Sha Zhu.

Originally, Silly Zhu wanted Xu Qing to tell Yu Yu face to face about him and Ma Jinghong.

However, Qin Huairu and Xu Aiguo were also there, so Si Zhu couldn't explain clearly and could only wink at Xu Qing.

However, Xu Qingcai was too lazy to pay attention to him.

Speaking of this matter, it is most appropriate for Shazhu to say it.

Xu Qing didn't want to cause embarrassment with Yu Yu.

It's just that Silly Zhu, the eldest brother, didn't expect that at all.

Xu Qing pretended not to see it, walked out of the alley and headed straight towards the factory.

Because He Yushui doesn't work in the factory, he doesn't go with everyone.

After they separated at the entrance of the alley, a person walked away alone.

Seeing his younger sister Yushui leave, Sha Zhu stretched out his hand and pulled Xu Qing, letting Qin Huairu and Xu Aiguo go first, while he and Xu Qing walked behind, talking in a low voice.

"Qingzi, why didn't you tell my sister directly? I called you out when I was in the courtyard. If you didn't tell me, you had to let me tell you."

Xu Qing turned to look at Shazhu, and smiled wryly: "Of course you said it, how could I tell Yushui, we have never met before, if I said it, it wouldn't be very embarrassing."

Silly Zhu held a cigarette in his mouth, put his hands in his pockets, and frowned. For a moment, he felt that that was what happened.

However, Silhu lay alone on the kang last night and thought about it for a long time. He felt that if he told Yu Yu, he would not feel good if he saw his sister sad.

But Xu Qing didn't say anything, he had to deal with this matter as a brother.

Silly Zhu felt a little depressed. He took two puffs of cigarette and walked all the way to the factory without making up his mind.

When he got off work in the afternoon, Sha Zhu thought about it all day and finally made up his mind.

After returning to the compound from the factory, he saw that his sister Yuyu had returned. Silly Zhu took off his scarf, closed the door, sat on the edge of the kang and faced the rainwater channel:

"Yu Shui, Big Brother asked you Brother Xu Qing for you last night, he said."

Silly Zhu, who had never been shy in more than [-] years, started to speak hesitantly for the first time.

He Yuyu was a sensible person. When he saw his elder brother speaking like this, he understood instantly and said immediately:
"Brother, I said don't let you find Brother Xu Qing, you have to go, I don't know, Brother Xu Qing gets along very well with his partner, what are you talking about, it makes Brother Xu Qing see me in the future, if it is too embarrassing .”

"That's the end of the story, big brother, don't mention it again!" He Yushui finished speaking, turned and went into the kitchen to continue cooking.

Silly Zhu froze on the edge of the kang, bared his teeth, reached out to touch his head, and suddenly felt that he seemed to have done something wrong.

But the question is, would it be too incompetent for him, the eldest brother, not to go to Xu Qing last night?

Silly Zhu thought for a while, but couldn't figure out the reason. He slipped off the kang and walked to the door of the house, blowing the cold wind blowing in the yard, and couldn't help but secretly thought:

"It's not easy to be a big brother!"
