Chapter 664 Xu Damao wants to go on a blind date again 7

In this seemingly ordinary yet leisurely afternoon, the warm sunlight, like a soft gauze, pours down on every corner of the courtyard, giving the entire yard a faint golden glow.

Just then, a figure walked out of the house. It was Liu Haizhong’s wife, Aunt Er.

I saw her holding a plate of freshly-made corn tortillas steadily in her hands. The corn tortillas in the plate were golden in color, as if kissed by the sun, and the surface had a just right crispy texture, as if you could hear a crisp "crunch" sound if you took a light bite.

At the same time, a rich and tempting aroma of corn wafted away slowly. The fragrance seemed to have magic. It instantly permeated the air and kept drilling into people's noses, causing the gluttonous worms in people's stomachs to begin to wriggle restlessly.

She walked briskly into the yard with a kind and friendly smile on her face. She gently placed the plate of corn tortillas that were full of love on the table and said with a smile:

"You two boys, stop worrying about this. As for Xu Damao's blind date, let's just listen to it for fun. Others have their own fate, which is arranged by God. We have our own lives to live steadily. Guangqi, your father is right. You have to work hard in the factory and don't always think about those trivial things. Do your job well, that's the real thing. Guangfu, you kid, don't think about these gossips all day long. Now is the time for you to grow skills and learn knowledge. You have to focus more on studying and can't just play around."

When Liu Guangqi heard his mother's words, he quickly reached out and took the pancake from her. His movements were full of honesty. He put the pancake to his mouth and took a bite. In an instant, the wonderful taste spread in his mouth, and the whole mouth was filled with this rich fragrance. It can be said that his mouth was full of fragrance.

As he chewed, he showed his signature silly smile and said with satisfaction in his voice: "Mom, the pancakes you make are so delicious. I've been eating them for so many years, but I still think the food at home is the most delicious. I can never get enough of it." Liu Guangfu, who was standing by, watched his brother eat so happily and couldn't wait to pick up a pancake and stuff a big bite into his mouth. While eating, he couldn't help but join in the fun and said incoherently: "Brother, tell me, if Xu Damao really becomes the son-in-law of the Lou family, then when we see him in the future, do we have to respectfully call him 'Uncle Xu'?"

Liu Haizhong was stunned when he heard this, but then he couldn't help laughing. He pointed at Liu Guangfu and said in a pretended scolding way, "You are such a talkative boy, you keep saying nonsense all day long.

If Xu Damao really becomes the son-in-law of the Lou family, it is his own ability. We should call him what we should call him, and not make any nonsense. But then again, Xu Damao is a very troublesome guy, always doing things here and there. If this marriage can really happen, maybe he will be more restrained in the future and live a good life. "

Second Aunt also laughed and said, "Who says he is not? Xu Damao has his own merits. You see, he works so hard and concentrates on the movie screenings. If he can really settle down through this opportunity, it will be a good thing for our courtyard."

The family sat around the table, eating delicious corn cakes and chatting happily. The atmosphere was so warm and harmonious. Before long, the topic naturally turned from Xu Damao's blind date to other trivial matters in the courtyard, just like the gurgling stream.

For example, someone's naughty cat climbed up a tree when the owner was not paying attention, but couldn't get down, so it kept meowing on the tree, which made the owner very anxious; or someone's child got a good grade in the exam, and the smile on his face was like a flower, so proud that the whole family was happy with him;

And there is that old lady from someone's family, so clever and skillful, who made some delicious food and didn't forget to share it with everyone in the yard. That warmth really warms people's hearts.

In the eyes of Liu Haizhong and his family, these seemingly trivial and ordinary things, although there are no earth-shattering scenes, are precisely the most precious part of life. They are like shining little pearls, stringing together these ordinary days full of human touch and fireworks, making every ordinary moment become shining.

In another corner of the courtyard, the lights in the home of Uncle Yi Zhonghai are equally warm.

In the room full of traces of time, Yi Zhonghai sat quietly on the rattan chair that looked quite old. The color of the rattan chair had become a little dull due to the polishing of time, but it still exuded a unique charm of old objects. He gently shook his body, and the rattan chair made a slight "creaking" sound, as if reminiscing about the past with him. His eyes were full of gentleness, just like the warm sunshine in spring, soft and tolerant, making people feel at ease when looking at him.

His wife, Auntie, was sitting next to him at the moment, holding a needle and thread in her hand, concentrating on mending an old dress. There were several worn places on the dress, and the stitches were a little sparse, but Auntie didn't look impatient at all. She was very careful, and every stitch and every thread was full of seriousness and concentration. The moment the thin thread passed through the cloth, it would make a slight "swish" sound, which was particularly clear in this quiet room where you could almost hear each other's breathing. The sound was like the sound of time flowing slowly at this moment, not hurried or slow, leisurely telling the plainness and reality of life.

"Zhonghai, look at the children in this yard. They are all like bamboo shoots that have broken through the ground in spring. They have grown up so fast and now have their own minds." The auntie kept sewing and raised her head slightly. There was some emotion in her eyes and her tone was full of sighs after years of sedimentation. "Just like Guangqi and Guangfu, although they are sometimes naughty and troublesome, either climbing up the roof or chasing and fighting in the yard, but they are still sensible in their hearts and know the importance of things at critical moments."

After hearing what his wife said, Yi Zhonghai raised the corners of his mouth slightly, revealing a faint smile, and then nodded gently, that action was full of approval, and he slowly said: "Yes, the children are indeed sensible. Although we have not been able to have a son or a daughter in this life, we all treat these children in the courtyard as our own children from the bottom of our hearts. Watching them grow up day by day, from those ignorant little babies to now independent and independent children with their own ideas, my heart, let alone how gratified I am."

"Speaking of children, I immediately thought of Xu Damao." Auntie said, and gently put down the needle and thread in her hand, folded the clothes neatly aside, then raised her head and looked at Yi Zhonghai with a thoughtful look in her eyes, "Tell me, if he really becomes the son-in-law of the Lou family, will it be another happy event for our courtyard? After all, this is also a major event in life. If it succeeds, the courtyard will be lively for a while."

After hearing this, Yi Zhonghai frowned slightly and fell into deep thought. His eyes seemed to pass through the house in front of him, looking at the plants and trees in the yard, and Xu Damao's usual appearance emerged in his mind. After a long while, he slowly said: "Xu Damao is a kid who is really troublesome at ordinary times. His temper is like a little firecracker, which can be ignited at a touch and makes some noise from time to time. However, this person is not a bad person, but sometimes he does things without thinking.

If he can really take this opportunity to settle down, calm down, and live a down-to-earth life, it will be a good thing for our courtyard. Our courtyard has always been about harmony. If everyone can live a peaceful life, there will be more stability and less trouble. "

"That being said, I'm still a little worried." Auntie frowned slightly, a worry on her face, "He's a very impatient person. What if he gets along with the Lou family and they start arguing over trivial matters? After all, the situations of the two families are quite different. I'm afraid there will be some friction. It won't be good if they end up unhappy."

"You're worrying too much." Yi Zhonghai smiled, stretched out his hand and gently patted the back of the aunt's hand, as if to comfort her. "How can two people live without bumps and bruises? Teeth and tongues still fight from time to time. The key is to understand and tolerate each other. If Xu Damao is really good to the girl from the Lou family and considers her in every way, then the Lou family will naturally not treat him unfairly and will definitely treat him well. The family will get along well and slowly get used to each other, and life will always be smooth."

After hearing this, the aunt thought about it carefully and felt that it was true. Her slightly frowned brows gradually relaxed, and a smile reappeared on her face. She nodded gently and said, "You are right. Let's hope that they are okay. This courtyard is already lively and bustling. If there is another harmonious couple, it will be more festive. The atmosphere of the whole courtyard will become more festive."

As they were talking, they heard a burst of clear and pleasant laughter coming from the yard. The laughter was like a silver bell, echoing in the air, revealing endless joy and happiness. It turned out that the second aunt and a few children were playing the game of skipping rubber bands in the yard.

The children's faces were flushed, their eyes were shining with excitement, they were jumping flexibly between the rubber bands, and they were shouting the rhythmic ballads. The cheerful scene was like a vivid painting. And the cheerful laughter was like a gentle breeze, blowing into the house, blowing away all the troubles and sorrows, and filling the house with a happy atmosphere.

Yi Zhonghai and the old lady smiled at each other, their smiles were full of satisfaction and happiness. Their eyes met, as if conveying a silent understanding, a love and cherishment for this ordinary life.

For them, every moment in this courtyard, whether it is the gossips between adults or the playfulness of children, is so precious and beautiful. Just like the twinkling stars in the night sky, or like the most shining pearls scattered in the long river of life, each of them emits a unique light, illuminating their plain but warm days, making them deeply immersed in this life full of fireworks, and cherishing this hard-earned happy time.

At this time, Xu Damao hummed a little tune and walked into the courtyard with a smug look on his face. He was holding a bag of snacks in his hand, which he had just bought from the cake shop on the street. The wrapping paper was still shiny and exuded an alluring sweet fragrance. He walked straight to his house, feeling happy, like a flower that had just been plucked by a bee, full of sweetness and expectation.

As soon as he entered the house, Xu Damao saw his parents sitting on the kang. His father was smoking a pipe and his mother was sewing shoe soles. Both of them looked relaxed. When Xu Damao saw his parents, his smile became even brighter. He raised the snack bag in his hand and said loudly, "Dad, Mom, look, what did I bring back for you?"

When his parents heard this, they looked up at Xu Damao with surprise in their eyes. His mother quickly put down her work, took the snack package, and smiled as she opened it: "Oh, my son is so filial, he knows how to buy delicious food for his parents."

Dad also smiled, with a hint of relief in his smile. He tapped his pipe and said slowly, "Da Mao, you are so happy today. Is there something good going on?"

When Xu Damao heard his father ask this, he felt so happy, as if an itch had been tickled. He smiled, sat opposite his parents, and said, "Dad, Mom, you guessed right. I do have good news today. I went on a blind date today. The girl was so pretty and had a good personality. I think this could be a good thing!"

When my parents heard this, their eyes widened. My mother was so excited that she almost dropped the snacks in her hand. She asked quickly, "Really? Is that girl really that good? How was your conversation?"

Xu Damao shook his head proudly and said, "How could it be false? We got along really well, from movies to the weather, from hobbies to family. It felt like I had found a soulmate. I think she is the one I'm looking for."

After hearing this, the father also smiled. He patted Xu Damao on the shoulder and said, "Da Mao, if you really like that girl, your parents will support you. However, you have to remember that when two people live together, it's not just about looks and personality, but also about whether they can support and understand each other."
