Zhou Ming looked at the crowd around him with confusion, sizing up their shabby but neat clothes and the old and low courtyard buildings, which all confirmed the memory in his mind.
He had traveled through time by a system called [The Arrival of All Heavens], and he had traveled through time in the body of the male protagonist of "Love in the Courtyard". When he thought of the male protagonist's character and the memories in his mind, Zhou Ming's whole body was filled with excitement. It's messy.
"System, can you give me a response?"
[Host, you are lucky enough to be chosen as one among billions. You should feel lucky]
"System, can you take away this luck? I don't need it at all!"
【Can't! 】
[As a novice reward, the system provides the host with a storage space of ten cubic meters]
[The host needs to change the fate of the characters in the play, and then exchange the system for rewards]
[In order to allow the host to survive better, cash in the reward "God-level Cooking Skills" in advance]
At this time, Zhou Ming had no intention of listening to the system's various rewards, because his current situation was really bad. Because of the "stealing chicken incident", Xu Damao had just extorted a large amount of money, and the actor had lost the face of his ancestors for eight generations. Not to mention, this also made the male protagonist Shazhu die in anger, which gave Zhou Ming the opportunity to travel through time.
Looking at the neighbors who were about to leave, Zhou Ming planned to "fight fire with fire" in order to make his life more comfortable in the future, which completely stopped some people from thinking about it.
"Everyone, please wait!"
Hearing Zhou Ming's stop, everyone turned their heads in confusion. Yi Zhonghai also looked at Zhou Ming in surprise, "Zhuzi, what are you going to do again?"
"Everyone, please give me some time." Zhou Ming looked at the confused people, and when he heard Yi Zhonghai's question, he said with a nonchalant smile, "I saw that everyone was gathered together today, and it happened to be in front of everyone. Tell me something."
"Zhu Zhu, if you have something to say, please tell me quickly." Knowing that Zhou Ming had just lost a sum of money and was feeling unhappy, Yi Zhonghai obeyed Zhou Ming's instructions and said, "Everyone is still waiting to go home! In the coldest month of winter, , who wants to stay here."
"Master, please don't be impatient!"
"The thing is, everyone knows that I am already twenty-nine years old this year. There are very few people at my age who are not married yet."
"I have been trying to go on blind dates, but for some unknown reason, all the blind dates have failed."
At this time, many people present looked a little unnatural. It was not just Qin Huairu and Xu Damao. It seemed that many neighbors played a disgraceful role.
"So, now I have completely resigned myself to my fate." Zhou Ming ignored the unnatural expressions on the neighbors' faces, and then continued to say earth-shattering words, "There happens to be a poor widowed woman Qin Huairu in our courtyard, and I am willing to propose marriage to her directly, and I am willing to support her mother-in-law, Mrs. Jia Zhang, and raise her ex-husband’s three children, as long as she is willing to continue to have children for me.”
"What?" At this time, all the neighbors in the courtyard were stunned. Many of them were so surprised that they almost bit their tongues.
"Zhuzi, are you crazy?" Yi Zhonghai, as the elder of the courtyard, was the first to wake up. "Do you know what you are talking about?"
"Master, of course I know what I'm talking about." Zhou Ming looked at Yi Zhonghai in a neither humble nor overbearing manner, but was not intimidated by his power. "As you all know, I have been helping Qin Huairu's family since her husband passed away due to a work-related injury. .
Borrow money and food without caring whether they can return it.
As an ordinary neighbor, it is really not easy for me to do this, so if Qin Huairu is willing to marry me, it will be a happy thing for everyone. "
"Today, in front of everyone in the hospital, I formally propose marriage to Qin Huairu. I hope Qin Huairu can marry me."
As Zhou Ming's sonorous and powerful voice fell, everyone fell into confusion again. They felt that Zhou Ming must have lost his mind today.
"Silly Zhu, don't even think about it. I won't agree to Qin Huairu's remarriage. Just give up!" Jia Zhang looked at Zhou Ming through gritted teeth. Her expression made her want to eat Zhou Ming.
"Aunt, please don't get excited. It's up to you to agree or disagree. I, He Yuzhu, will not force you." Zhou Ming looked at the furious Jia Zhang with a smile, and then said openly and aboveboard, "Since I am in front of all the old and young men in the courtyard today, I said this to my face just to make it clear and candid."
At this time, Mrs. Jia Zhang was also confused by Zhou Ming's magnanimity. She didn't know how to deal with it for a moment, and then looked at her daughter-in-law angrily, "Qin Huairu, are you dead?
Quickly reject Sha Zhu’s wishful thinking! "
The high-ranking Qin Huairu also woke up from the confusion, and then just cried there. Zhou Ming really didn't understand what there was to cry about, so he just had to explain it clearly.
"Shazhu, thank you for taking care of our family, but I have never thought about remarrying. I can only say I'm sorry to you." Qin Huairu showed an expression that looked pitiful to me, which really made Zhou Ming feel a little tired. , "But I have a younger sister from my hometown. She is also young and beautiful. I will bring her to you to get to know her tomorrow."
"Haha, no need!" Zhou Ming shook his head disapprovingly, and then said pervertedly, "Since you and auntie don't agree, let's let this matter go!
I, He Yuzhu, will never harass your family again. "
"Huh?" At this time, all the neighbors were confused again, feeling that Silly Zhu seemed to be a different person at this time.
"Everyone, since neither Qin Huairu nor Jia Zhang agrees with this marriage, let this matter be dropped!" Zhou Ming looked at the neighbors present again, and then said his true purpose, "Everyone knows that Guatian Li Xia avoids suspicion. It makes sense, so I will not have any contact with the Jia family in the future. I hope everyone will take good care of Qin Huairu's family in the future.
If everyone sees me and Qin Huairu alone, I, He Yuzhu, will be struck by lightning. "
"..."
After looking at the neighbors who were confused by him, Zhou Ming looked at Jia Zhang and Qin Huairu again, "Auntie, don't be nervous, you have watched me grow up.
Although he sometimes keeps his mouth shut, he will never do anything deviant.
Today I said I won’t bother you and your family anymore, and I will naturally do what I say.
Aunt, sister-in-law, from now on I will no longer interfere with your family's affairs, and sister-in-law, please don't let your children come to my house anymore. "
"Master, it was you who arranged for me to take care of Qin Huairu's family. Now I'm officially telling you not to tell me anything about Qin Huairu's family in the future." Zhou Ming looked at Yi Zhonghai again at this time, and then said with cold eyes, "If you mention anything about Qin Huairu's family to me again, don't blame me, He Yuzhu, for being unkind."
"ah?"
"Second uncle, third uncle, please help me bear witness today."
"Huh? Okay! Okay!" Liu Haizhong and Yan Bugui responded in a daze.
…
When He Yuyu returned to the courtyard after get off work, she immediately heard about Zhou Ming's proposal of marriage to Qin Huairu in public. She was also stunned by this breaking news.
"Silly brother, are you really stupid?"
"He Yuyu, why are you talking?"
"Silly brother, did you really propose marriage to Qin Huairu?"
"Yes! But they rejected them directly." Zhou Ming glanced at his sister angrily, and then couldn't help but tell him, "He Yuyu, don't have any contact with Qin Huairu's family in the future. Avoid suspicion."
"Ah! Brother, are you serious about this?"
"Of course it's true! I, He Yuzhu, keep my word and will never have any contact with Qin Huairu's family again."
"Then...then Sister Qin's family is in such trouble, can you really bear it?"
"He Yuyu, let me ask you, how long have I been helping their family?"
"Ah? It's been four or five years, right?"
"Yes! Isn't four or five years of help enough? Do I have to continue to help endlessly?"
"this……"
"He Yuyu, there are so many neighbors in the courtyard. Without the help of our He family, Qin Huairu's family will still be comfortable and happy."
Zhou Ming was not wrong. The world would continue to function without anyone. Zhou Ming had never taken himself too seriously. Without his own help and support, Qin Huairu's family would still have many solutions.
Zhou Ming knew that He Yuyu would not be easily persuaded by him, and he did not really try to convince her. How she wanted to get along with others was her own freedom, and Zhou Ming would not force it on her.
Zhou Ming can only promise that he will not associate with Qin Huairu's family. As a good young man with a house and a job, he can do anything freely in this era. Why should he act like a "donkey" for others to listen to? handle.
Zhou Ming was lying on the wooden bed of the 1960s, feeling the peaceful environment around him, and then he remembered that he still had a storage space.
Zhou Ming quickly felt his body with his mind, and soon discovered the existence of the storage space. Zhou Ming was surprised and kept experimenting. Then he got up and found all his valuable belongings, and stuffed them all into the storage space.
Seeing that there was still a lot of storage space, Zhou Ming realized that he was a "poor man" through and through, and then he stuffed all the food in the house into the space, which made Zhou Ming feel better about himself.
After playing with his storage space for a while, Zhou Ming suddenly felt a little bored, and then thought of that inexplicable "god-level cooking skill", and then a lot of cooking knowledge appeared in his mind, as if he was really omnipotent. The magic chef.
"System, how was my performance today? Is it worth getting some rewards?"
[Host, it is very easy to set up a Flag. The key is whether it can be done, so you still need to continue to observe the host’s next behavior]
"Hey! Stingy! Even if you reward me with a bottle of Fatty's Happy Water, that's fine!"
【……】
Seeing that there was no response from the system, it might be that he felt tired after traveling through time just now, or it might be that the environment in the 1960s was too quiet. Anyway, Zhou Ming quickly fell into a deep sleep.
Different from Zhou Ming's deep sleep, tonight's courtyard is destined to make many people insomniac. For example, Yi Zhonghai was tossing and turning there, unable to fall asleep.
"Lao Yi, why aren't you sleeping yet?"
"Hey! I'm thinking about Zhuzhu tonight."
"Hey! Silly Zhu, hasn't he always been so arrogant?" The aunt looked a little disdainful of Zhou Ming, thinking that Zhou Ming's temper was getting worse, "Don't worry! He will be killed by Qin Huai soon." Ru coaxed it."
"But I feel like there's something different about him today!"
"Well, maybe Xu Damao was so angry, right?" Aunta nodded in agreement, and then said speculatively, "Although Silly Zhu doesn't keep his mouth shut, he is definitely not a chicken thief, so he must have been wrongly accused. of."
"Uh..." Of course Yi Zhonghai knew who the "chicken thief" was, but now he could only sacrifice Zhou Ming.
"Lao Yi, don't push Si Zhu too hard in the future. Rabbits will bite when they are anxious."
"Well, I understand."
…
Qin Huairu and Jia Zhang also reacted at this time, and then they became more and more suspicious of Zhou Ming's anomaly, "Mom, do you think Silly Zhu said that on purpose?"
"Hmph! I think he is obsessed with you!"
"Mom, think about it, how could he fall in love with me?" Looking at Jia Zhang who was still on guard, Qin Huairu felt a little bit dumbfounded, "Isn't Silly Zhu clamoring every day to marry a fair, rich and beautiful girl? ?
Why did you propose marriage to me all of a sudden?
I think it's probably because he doesn't want to support our family anymore. "
"Ah? No way!" After hearing Qin Huairu's analysis, Jia Zhang also came back to his senses, "Does Silly Zhu have such a brain?"
"Mom, Silly Zhu knows very well that Bangge stole Xu Damao's chicken, and he will definitely not be happy in his heart."
"Eh? Huairu, when you say this, I think he is a little confused." Jia Zhang sat up.
"Mom, don't sit up!" Seeing Jia Zhang's excitement, Qin Huairu quickly said with concern, "It's so cold outside, don't freeze!"
Seeing Qin Huairu caring about her so much, Jia Zhang felt very comfortable. Then she no longer complained at the beginning, and her mentality changed unconsciously. This was also the reason why she was reluctant to let Qin Huairu remarry.
"Huairu, what are you going to do next?"
"Mom, that's what I think." Qin Huairu spelled out her plan, "I will ask for leave early tomorrow morning to go back to my hometown, and then bring Qin Jingru over and let her go on a blind date with Shazhu."
"But Shazhu has made it clear that he will never have contact with our family again."
"Mom, I'm going to let you be the matchmaker. Silly Zhu will definitely obey him."
"Well, that's a good idea." Seeing that Qin Huairu was so well prepared, Jia Zhang felt much more relaxed, "Qin Jingru will definitely be good to our family when she marries Shazhu, so that you two sisters can be considered There is someone taking care of you.”
