Transmigrating Through the Heavens: Starting with the Silly Pillar of the Courtyard

Chapter 68 The Wedding Date is Set

He Yuzhu is now very familiar with Wangjiazhuang Commune, and many people in the village know that he is Liu's son-in-law.

Seeing the two holding hands, he smiled knowingly.

He Yuzhu took out a pack of Daqianmen cigarettes and walked around offering them to everyone. While accepting the cigarettes from He Yuzhu, people would also say a few nice words.

He Yuzhu was considered a distinguished guest of Wangjiazhuang. No matter how he usually treated others, they would always show a smile when they saw He Yuzhu.

Everyone who sees He Yuzhu greets him warmly.

Some people even jokingly asked He Yuzhu when he would marry Yulan. This had quickly become the hottest news in Wangjiazhuang, with everyone eagerly awaiting the day Liu Yulan would officially marry He Yuzhu.

In the past, when people asked He Yuzhu, he would answer that it had been two years, but today He Yuzhu said directly that it was this year.

Everyone was taken aback when they heard He Yuzhu's answer.

Then everyone realized that He Yuzhu was already old enough.

I got engaged to Liu Yulan when I was eighteen, and now I'm finally twenty and ready to get married.

Over the past two years, He Yuzhu has done quite a lot for the Liu family.

Nowadays, the Liu family is the most envied family in the village, all because they have a cadre son-in-law.

Every time He Yuzhu came, he brought large bags and small packages. The Liu family no longer wears patched clothes.

This alone makes the villagers incredibly envious of the Liu family.

Liu Dazhi and Wang Cuilan praised their son-in-law every day.

While everyone was flattering them, they were probably secretly hoping that the Liu family would one day fall from grace.

The main problem is that he's so hated. Why is it that everyone else is poor, but he has such a son-in-law? However, on the surface, he still has to curry favor with the Liu family, just in case he needs their help in the future.

This is normal; everyone was poor and doing well together, and then suddenly someone becomes rich. Many people feel uncomfortable because they think, "You're not poor with us anymore."

He Yuzhu and Liu Yulan returned to the Liu family home, where a family was already standing outside the door.

"Grandpa, Grandma, Uncle, Aunt, why are you being so polite?"

"It's okay, everyone's eager to see you. Come on, let's eat."

He accepted the things that He Yuzhu brought.

Liu Dazhi waved his hand, inviting his son-in-law to come in for dinner.

Last year, He Yuzhu gave the Liu family one million yuan so that they could renovate their house.

When houses are built in the village, there are no wages paid; it's all done by the villagers themselves. One million yuan is spent on materials, which is quite a lot.

The six rooms were renovated and now look very new and impressive. This made the villagers extremely jealous of the Liu family. In short, as long as the Liu family continued to improve their situation, they couldn't escape the slander behind their backs.

Liu Dazhi and Wang Cuilan no longer care about this; their family's future will only get better and better.

Go ahead and be jealous.

"Brother-in-law, why do you look so happy today?"

He called Liu Yuqiu, Liu Yuju's brother-in-law, with such enthusiasm.

Liu Dazhi, Wang Cuilan, Grandpa, and Grandma all looked at He Yuzhu.

"While everyone is here, I'd like to announce two things. First, I'm now a deputy section-level cadre, which is equivalent to a deputy township head. Of course, there's a difference between working in a company and working in a government department."

"Oh, Zhu Zi, you're already a deputy township head?"

Wang Cuilan asked in surprise, she had only known that He Yuzhu was a cadre, but she had no concept of the section level.

Now, when I hear that He Yuzhu is at the deputy section chief level and deputy township head level, I am quite impressed.

"Hey, Auntie, keep it low-key, keep it low-key."

Wang Cuilan covered her mouth, looking rather cute.

"What's the second thing?"

As the head of the family, Liu Dazhi was also surprised by He Yuzhu's promotion, but he still pretended to be calm and asked.

"The second thing is that I'm already twenty years old, so after the New Year I can start thinking about when to marry Yulan."

After He Yuzhu finished speaking, he looked at Liu Yulan with deep affection in his eyes, and Liu Yulan also looked at He Yuzhu with deep affection in her eyes.

The two had met many times in the past two years, and each time they would hide in the house and do some intimate things.

Besides the final level, they also experimented with many mini-games. Liu Yulan is now a qualified veteran driver.

Liu Yulan had long hoped to marry He Yuzhu.

Many nights, Liu Yulan could only fall asleep thinking about her good brother He Yuzhu.

Liu Dazhi and Wang Cuilan also realized this when they heard it; they had gotten used to He Yuzhu coming over frequently over the past two years.

He completely forgot that he and Liu Yulan are not married yet, so naturally no one would object to this.

Over the past two years, He Yuzhu has given the Liu family no less than two hundred yuan in benefits.

Privately, he also gave Liu Yulan several tens of yuan. To be honest, the Liu family owed He Yuzhu quite a lot.

Both sons-in-law were sons-in-law, but the eldest son-in-law only gave twenty yuan as a bride price for the wedding.

They only send a few dollars' worth of gifts each year. This stark contrast makes the Liu family cherish He Yuzhu, their son-in-law who is a cadre, even more.

It's normal to treat people differently, since one son-in-law can bring huge benefits while the other can only offer meager rewards. Everyone would naturally favor the capable son-in-law.

Liu Yulan hasn't worked in the fields for the past two years. Even during the busiest times, her family wouldn't let her go to the fields.

At most, she would cook for her family and deliver food and water, but she was worried that He Yuzhu would look down on her if Liu Yulan got tanned.

Liu Yulan knew that all of this was due to the changes her man had brought to her.

Liu Yulan had long considered herself a member of the He family, and in the past two years she had grown increasingly beautiful, attracting the attention of several young men who tried to pursue her.

Liu Yulan immediately launched into a tirade against him, saying that a country bumpkin like him dared to pursue her and didn't even know where he got the courage.

She, Liu Yulan, is going to marry into the city and become an official's wife. She must be out of her mind to have fallen for him.

To avoid any gossip from He Yuzhu, Liu Yulan generally avoided going out. She didn't want her marriage to be ruined at the last minute.

Liu Dazhi, Wang Cuilan, and the grandparents all agreed that the wedding would be held in May. After a brief discussion, everyone decided that the wedding would take place in May.

The main reason is that the village needs to work in the spring, such as digging ditches. May is a good time to prepare for the wedding.

Liu Yuchun's wedding wasn't a big affair, so Liu Yulan certainly couldn't do that here.

Having received so many benefits from He Yuzhu, Liu Dazhi was determined to make this a grand wedding for his daughter.

He Yuzhu did not stop them, after all, it was their parents' good intention.

So, he felt bad that his wife would have to wait a few more months. Liu Yulan understood He Yuzhu's look and lowered her head somewhat embarrassedly.

Not only He Yuzhu missed him, but Liu Yulan also missed her brother.

Looking at the beautiful Fan Bingbing, He Yuzhu, this old man, felt a growing desire.

Everyone had a good time at dinner, and He Yuzhu even shared a bottle of baijiu with his father-in-law.

The liquor was definitely brought by He Yuzhu. Each time, there were two bottles of liquor, and Liu Dazhi could keep one for himself to brag about and treat others to later.

Liu Yuqiu and Liu Yuju both looked at their second sister with a mixture of envy and anticipation.

They're both sixteen years old now, and they'll be looking for partners soon.

I wonder if any cadres like my brother-in-law would like them, because they also want to marry into the city, instead of staying in the village like my eldest sister, eating farm food.

My older sister comes back occasionally, and she often cries about how badly she is treated at her husband's family home.

But this was the best option her family could find for her at the time.

After all, it's a rural area. Even when Wang Cuilan married into the Liu family, she lived like this.

Even Wang Cuilan is not as good as the eldest daughter, at least her father-in-law is a squad leader.

Of course, this is the eldest daughter. Liu Yuchun has always felt that she almost married He Yuzhu back then, and this is why she feels a sense of loss now.

If He Yuzhu hadn't appeared, Liu Yuchun wouldn't have felt so disappointed, since she hadn't seen a better life to begin with.

Now that the third and fourth sisters are almost of marriageable age, they naturally don't want to become resentful women like the eldest sister.

This is why the two women were so enthusiastic when they met He Yuzhu; they both hoped that their brother-in-law could help them find good families in the city.

He Yuzhu understood their thoughts, and he felt it wouldn't be difficult for his two sisters-in-law to marry into the city.

They weren't as pretty as Liu Yulan, but they were still among the prettiest girls in the village.

My brother-in-law is quite influential at the steel rolling mill. Introducing them to a good worker would be a piece of cake.

At the same time, the other party would definitely be willing to be his brother-in-law, not only because of their village residency, but also because his two sisters-in-law are very outstanding.

Registering a household registration now is not complicated; you just need to get married before 58.

He Yuzhu waited quietly in the house that night, and sure enough, a figure soon pushed open the door and appeared in the room.

He Yuzhu always stays overnight when he comes here, and leaves the next morning.

The two of them definitely won't actually do anything, but it'll definitely be comfortable.

The young wife has learned a lot from He Yuzhu's teachings. Even experienced drivers can follow him and drive well on the winding, dilapidated roads.

Aside from feeling a little embarrassed, Liu Yulan didn't want to refuse him. After all, her only support was this man; she would spend the rest of her life with him, sharing both good and bad fortune, and bearing his children.

It's only because He Yuzhu was a cadre that their children are already walking.

So now the two of them know each other's strengths and weaknesses, and each knows the other's future.

The Liu family usually pretended to be asleep at this time, and no matter what noises came from the room, no one came to disturb them.

Putting aside the fact that they were already engaged, He Yuzhu was already giving the Liu family a job, and he was going to help Liu Dawei find work in the future. Who would be so blind as to stop them?

Otherwise, the rule that a son-in-law cannot live with his wife at his father-in-law's house will be thrown in your face.

The eldest son-in-law naturally didn't receive such treatment in the Liu family, which is why he rarely came over.

Even when visiting relatives, they would avoid He Yuzhu; the two had only met once, at Liu Yuchun's wedding.

The next day, He Yuzhu got up, ate breakfast, said goodbye to the Liu family, and Liu Yulan saw him off at the intersection and watched him get into the car and leave.
