Chapter 4: Buying a sewing machine without a license

 The bridal chamber! Do it a few more times!

Silly Zhu, who was serving food, was stunned.

When he thought that his goddess Qin Huairu would soon have a bridal relationship with Jia Dongxu, he felt inexplicably uncomfortable.

"Silly Zhu, why are you standing there? Hurry up and get me the food, but don't give me the spoon." Jia Dongxu shouted loudly.

Silly Zhu originally really planned to tip the spoon to give Jia Dongxu a little less, but after hearing Jia Dongxu's words, he finally didn't dare to tip the spoon.

He has not yet become the boss of the cafeteria, let alone the god of war in the courtyard.

Jia Dongxu, protected by Yi Zhonghai and Jia Zhang, is the dominant figure in the courtyard.

Soon, Jia Dongxu took a lunch box full of vegetables, found a place to sit down, and enjoyed the food happily.

The current chef of the cafeteria is He Daqing, and the food in the cafeteria is still very delicious.

"That kid Jia Dongxu spends money like this and can't live at all. Fortunately, I didn't introduce my cousin to him."

"I heard that he had a blind date yesterday and will get married tomorrow. I think his wife will divorce him sooner or later."

"Look at how handsome he is, and no one in the factory dares to introduce him to a partner, so you know that his life will not be easy in the future."

……

The workers sitting near Jia Dongxu, looking at Jia Dongxu's sumptuous meal, all drooled with envy, and turned to jealously say bad things about Jia Dongxu.

Jia Dongxu ignored those people. They didn't have anything good to eat. They said the grapes were sour if they couldn't eat them.

In the afternoon, Jia Dongxu started working hard again.

When he was about to get off work, he went to the office building and asked Director Tang, the factory manager, for three days of wedding leave.

This was his first marriage, so he was easily granted three days of marriage leave.

After asking for leave, I went back to the workshop to work as a fisherman. After get off work, I returned to the courtyard to wash and cook and then went to bed early.

The next day, Jia Dongxu wanted to take a long nap, but was scolded by cheap mother Jia Zhang to make breakfast.

After he made breakfast and finished eating, he went to sleep again.

"Dongxu, why don't you get up quickly? Qin Huairu is here."

When Jia Dongxu fell asleep, he was woken up by Jia Zhang.

He got up from the bed and walked out to see Qin Huairu standing in the room with a big bundle on his shoulder.

"Huairu, you came here so early?" Jia Dongxu smiled slightly.

Qin Huairu smiled and nodded: "Well, I took the earliest bus here."

"You sit down and wait for me. I'll wash my face first, and then I'll discuss the evidence with you."

Jia Dongxu replied casually, took a towel, basin and hot water bottle and walked out of the house.

"Brother Jia, let me help you."

Qin Huairu put down the heavy baggage and followed Jia Dongxu out of the yard.

Pouring hot water into the basin, twisting the towel and wiping Jia Dongxu's face were all done by Qin Huairu.

Jia Dongxu just brushed his teeth himself,

Qin Huairu is so good at serving others, where can I find such a wife?

"It seems that Qin Huairu is very easy to handle. Once I teach her how to buy cheap groceries, I won't have to do anything at all."

Mrs. Jia Zhang stood outside the door, looking at Qin Huairu waiting for Jia Dongxu to wash her face, showing a satisfied smile.

Jia Dongxu washed his face, changed into a set of clean clothes, and then went to ask Jia Zhang, who was sewing shoes, for money.

"Mom, you gave me the money to buy a sewing machine. Huairu and I will go to the Civil Affairs Bureau to get a certificate, and then we will go directly to the department store to buy a sewing machine."

Mrs. Jia Zhang put down her shoes and took out a small cloth wrapped with money.

She counted the money and said: "I have already inquired, the sewing machine is one hundred and seventy-five yuan and four cents."

"If you hire a cart driver to pull the sewing machine back, it will cost you at most 50 cents. Here it is 175 yuan and 90 cents. Take it carefully and don't lose it."

After Jia Zhang counted it several times, she handed over one hundred and seventy-five dollars and nine cents to Jia Dongxu.

It’s really cool, you don’t even pay a dime more!

Jia Dongxu didn't say much. After taking the money, he called Qin Huairu: "Huairu, let's go."

After saying that, he strode out of the house, and Qin Huairu followed him step by step like a little daughter-in-law.

"Brother, I only gave my parents five yuan as a gift in the end. This is five yuan, you take it."

Qin Huairu took out five dollars and stuffed it into Jia Dongxu's hand, with a look of pride on her face.

Brother?

Jia Dongxu likes this title very much, and it is more affectionate than the title Brother Jia.

"Huairu, you really did it. How did you convince your parents?"

Jia Dongxu excitedly put five yuan into his pocket.

This is his first large sum of money that he can use at will.

"I just said that you are handsome and you will definitely have a great future."

"My parents believed in this so much that they agreed to only accept a gift of five yuan."

Qin Huairu said proudly, smiling so much that her eyebrows bent.

"You are really my good wife. You are right. I will definitely be very successful in the future and I will let you live a good life in the future."

Jia Dongxu smiled and nodded.

If it weren't for the trend of this era, he would have wanted to hold Qin Huairu and kiss her fiercely.

"Well, I also believe in my vision. You will definitely have a great future and make me live a good life."

Qin Huairu smiled and nodded heavily in agreement.

Jia Dongxu smiled bitterly in his heart... Where did you come from? You just saw me as handsome and coveted my body.

The two arrived at the Civil Affairs Bureau chatting and laughing and successfully received their marriage certificate.

After coming out of the Civil Affairs Bureau, Jia Dongxu took Qin Huairu to the mutton restaurant in Dongzhimen.

You can’t treat others badly when someone finally helps you with a gift of five yuan, right?

Qin Huairu pulled Jia Dongxu out and said with a distressed look on her face: "Brother, we'd better not go out to the restaurant. This is such a waste of money!"

"If you don't waste it, I won't even give you a meal at your parents' house. You will become my wife. I will at least treat you to a good meal."

Jia Dongxu smiled and pulled Qin Huairu towards the mutton restaurant.

Seeing Jia Dongxu say this, Qin Huairu did not refuse and nodded happily: "Brother, you are so kind to me. I will definitely live a good life with you in the future."

Hearing this, Jia Dongxu sighed secretly... People in this era are easily satisfied.

The two of them ordered a lot of things at the mutton restaurant, but they didn't spend much, only two yuan and thirty cents.

Qin Huairu didn't eat much, most of it was eaten by Jia Dongxu.

After coming out of the mutton restaurant, Jia Dongxu took Qin Huairu straight to the department store and bought a sewing machine for 1,750 yuan and 40 cents.

He also thinks it would be better to buy a sewing machine earlier, since he can buy it now if he has money.

In two years' time, all kinds of tickets will be released. If you don't have a sewing ticket, you won't be able to buy a sewing machine.

After getting the sewing machine, Jia Dongxu feels that he can do it, and plans to have a showdown with the cheap mother Jia Zhang after returning home.

I spent 50 cents to hire a cart driver to haul the sewing machine back to the courtyard.

Jia Dongxu and Qin Huairu didn't ask anyone for help, so they just took away the sewing machine and walked inside.

"Dongxu, I bought your sewing machine."

"This sewing machine looks like a good thing at first glance. I have to save up money to buy a sewing machine!"

"No, I heard that if you put the cloth on it, the clothes will come out!"

……

Along the way, all the aunts in the courtyard came out to watch the fun and commented with envy.
