Siheyuan: I am Banggeng’s uncle
Chapter 552 Sisters!
Chapter 552 Sisters!
At around six o’clock in the evening, Sha Zhu led Liang Lali to the villa. At that time, everyone in the Jia family had just finished their meal and were sitting in the yard chatting.
When Sha Zhu saw the people sitting in the yard chatting, he immediately smiled and greeted Jia Dongming, “Brother Dongming! Aunt Zhang, two sisters-in-law, this is my wife Liang Lali. We got the marriage certificate today. This is our wedding candy. Please have some candy.”
Jia Dongming looked at Liang Lali in front of him and asked Sha Zhu curiously, “Zhu Zi! Where is your wife from? Now that you have a family, you can live a good life in the future!”
When Sha Zhu heard Jia Dongming’s instructions, he immediately introduced himself to Jia Dongming: “Brother Dongming! My wife is from Liang Village over at Menqiaogou.”
After hearing what Sha Zhu had said, Jia Dongming thought of Liang Lati’s situation and asked Liang Lali with a smile, “Comrade Liang Lali, do you know Liang Lati?”
When Liang Lali heard Jia Dongming mention his elder sister, she was shocked and blurted out, “Brother Dongming! Liang Lati is my elder sister. She works in a machine repair factory in the suburbs. I plan to visit my elder sister and nephews in two days.”
When Jia Dongming heard Lali’s answer and learned that the two were actually sisters, he smiled and introduced them to Liang Lali: “Comrade Liang Lali! Your sister Liang Lati has been transferred from the machine repair factory to our steel rolling mill. She now lives in the steel rolling mill family compound on the shore of Shichahai.”
Liang Lali heard Jia Dongming’s introduction and learned that her elder sister had been transferred to the steel mill. She was surprised and asked Jia Dongming: “Brother Dongming! Is what you said true? Has my sister really been transferred to the steel mill?”
When Qin Huairu heard Jia Dongming mention Liang Lati, she immediately thought of the fifth-level welder who had just been transferred to the steel rolling mill. She asked Jia Dongming with a half-smile on her face: “Brother Dongming! Could the Liang Lati you are talking about be the fifth-level welder who was transferred to our factory not long ago? Brother Dongming, how do you know Liang Lati?”
When Jia Dongming heard Qin Huairu’s question and saw the other party’s half-smile, how could he not understand the meaning of Qin Huairu’s words.
Then he introduced to everyone: “Some time ago, when I was out on a case, I happened to pass by Shichahai and saw a few children fishing.”
“Just as I was about to leave, the older child was pulled into the water by a fish. I heard the children’s cries for help, so I jumped into the water and rescued the child. Later, I heard the child’s account of the situation. Only then did I know that the four children were children of the steel mill, so I sent the children to the factory’s infirmary.”
“Brother Dongming! The four children you mentioned must be my sister’s children, Damao, Ermao and others. Thank you for saving them.” When Liang Lali heard what Jia Dongming introduced, an expression of gratitude immediately appeared on her face, and she quickly expressed her gratitude to Jia Dongming.
“Uncle, uncle, the TV program is about to start. Please move the TV out. I want to watch TV.” After finishing his homework, Banggeng saw that it was already seven o’clock in the evening. He ran out of the house and shouted to Jia Dongming with anticipation.
“Brother Dongming! I will set up a banquet in the yard this Sunday. You, Aunt Zhang, and the sisters-in-law must remember to come and join us.” When Sha Zhu heard Banggeng’s words, his eyes suddenly brightened. He quickly greeted Jia Dongming and led Liang Lali out of the courtyard!
Liang Lali was puzzled by Sha Zhu’s behavior. She followed him out of the courtyard and asked him with a puzzled look on her face, “Brother Zhu! I still have many things to ask Brother Dongming. Why are you in such a hurry to take me away?”
Sha Zhu led Liang Lali to the backyard and said to her, “Wife! The TV at Brother Dongming’s house will start broadcasting programs soon. Let’s go deliver the programs to a few houses in the backyard first, and then go to Brother Dongming’s house to watch TV.” “Brother Zhu! What is TV?” Liang Lali asked Sha Zhu as she heard what Sha Zhu had introduced. A curious expression appeared on her face. She asked Sha Zhu as they walked.
When Sha Zhu heard Liang Lali’s question, he smiled and introduced: “Wife! Watching TV is just like watching movies in your countryside.”
Then Sha Zhu came to the door of the deaf old lady’s house and shouted inside: “Old lady! Are you home?”
The deaf old lady was naturally aware of the attitude of Yi Zhonghai and his wife towards her during this period. During lunch today, when she learned the news of Sha Zhu’s marriage, she was undoubtedly very happy and stayed at home waiting for Sha Zhu’s arrival.
When the deaf old lady heard Sha Zhu’s shouting from outside the house, a happy smile immediately appeared on her wrinkled face, and she responded to the outside of the house: “Grandma’s dear grandson, you are here, come in quickly.”
When Sha Zhu heard the answer from the deaf old lady, he pushed open the door and led Liang Lali into the house. He smiled and introduced her to the deaf old lady: “Old lady! I’m married. This is my daughter-in-law Liang Lali!”
When the deaf old lady heard what Sha Zhu said, she looked at the pretty Liang Lali in front of her with the help of the light in the house, took out a gold bracelet from her pocket, and said happily, “Grandma’s dear grandson! You have finally started a family and established a career. Even if grandma passes away, she can rest in peace. This is a gift from grandma to my granddaughter-in-law. Take it and put it on my granddaughter-in-law.”
Liang Lali didn’t know the relationship between the deaf old lady and Sha Zhu, but the other party gave her an expensive gold bracelet, which made her feel flattered. She quickly refused and said, “Old lady! This bracelet is too expensive. We can’t accept it no matter what.”
Seeing that Liang Lali did not show any greed for money in the face of such an expensive gold bracelet, Sha Zhu directly refused the gift from the deaf old lady. This made him feel even more satisfied with Liang Lali. He said to Liang Lali happily, “Wife! In my eyes, the old lady is not much different from my own grandmother. Since it is a gift from the old lady, you should accept it!”
Liang Lali heard what Sha Zhu said, so she naturally did not refute Sha Zhu anymore. She took the gold bracelet from Sha Zhu and thanked the deaf old lady: “Thank you, old lady. This is the wedding candy for me and Brother Zhuzi. Please have one and enjoy your sweet mouth.”
When the deaf old lady heard Liang Lali’s words, she was so happy that her eyes narrowed into a line and she replied with a smile: “This candy is really sweet.”
When Sha Zhu heard what the deaf old lady said, he smiled and said to her, “Old lady! I still have to go to other houses to deliver candy. I will come to see you tomorrow morning.”
Not long after Sha Zhu left the deaf old lady’s house, Yi Tan came out from the corner. While Sha Zhu was at Liu Haizhong’s house, she immediately ran back to her own house and said to Yi Zhonghai who was sitting in the main hall, “Master! Sha Zhu just went to give candy to the old lady, and the old lady gave Sha Zhu’s wife a big bracelet. Does the old lady want to get rid of us and let Sha Zhu take care of her in her old age?”
