Xiao Qinyu didn't bother to be polite. He quickly went into the room, picked up the firecrackers, climbed into the passenger seat of the military truck, and the driver started the vehicle and drove to Yu's house.
On the way, several men in green military uniforms introduced themselves. They were all Xiao Qinyu's comrades-in-arms, namely Battalion Commander Chen, Deputy Battalion Commander Zhang, Company Commander Hong and Company Commander Xu.
Xiao Qinyun greeted them and thanked them for helping his younger brother. They waved their hands hurriedly, saying that they were all brothers and it was only natural.
After arriving at Yu's house, Xiao Qinyu, Captain Hong and Captain Xu jumped out of the car and set off firecrackers at the door.
After the firecrackers were set off, Xiao Qinyun, Battalion Commander Chen, and Deputy Battalion Commander Zhang handed the large items to the car. They took over and transported the refrigerator, color TV, and tape recorder to the Yu family's yard in two trips.
The things were not brought into the house, but were placed in the yard for everyone to see.
Afterwards, Xiao Qinyu, Xiao Qinyun, Qiao Qinglu and Captain Chen all entered the Yu family.
As soon as they entered the door, the three children saw Qiao Qinglu and ran to her. Xiao Xu saw Xiao Qinyu and also came over. The two children came in front of Yu Mengmeng.
Xiao Xu took out a betrothal gift from his pocket and handed it to Yu Mengmeng. After Yu Mengmeng accepted the betrothal gift, Xiao Qinyu also took out a watch and put it on Yu Mengmeng.
Xiao Yu put Yu Mengmeng's hand on Xiao Qinyu's hand and said, "Child, you will be a member of the Xiao family from now on. You must trust each other, support each other, love each other, and grow old together."
Xiao Qinyu looked at Yu Mengmeng lovingly, and Yu Mengmeng looked at him with a blushing face. Captain Hong, Captain Xu and others started to cheer, "Hug one, hug one," and pushed the two together.
Everyone around was laughing and making noises in a friendly manner. Yu Mengmeng's face turned red and she ran into the house.
Doubao’s comment: The young aunt still needs to improve her skills, she is not thick-skinned enough!
After delivering the betrothal gifts and items, Xiao Xu and his companions, along with Captain Chen and several others, followed Xiao Qinyu and left the Yu family. Captain Chen and his companions saw that nothing was wrong, so they said goodbye and left, leaving only the Xiao family members in the new house.
This is Xiao Qinyu's new courtyard, facing south, with three main rooms and two auxiliary rooms in the east and west.
The bedroom is furnished with a double bed, a large wardrobe, a bedside table and a chest of drawers; the living room is furnished with a combination of high and low cabinets, two wooden sofas, a coffee table, an octagonal table and four chairs; the study is furnished with two desks and chairs.
There is a table clock on the tall cabinet, two sets of porcelain teapots and teacups in the low cabinet, and the sofa is covered with a crocheted hollow sofa towel, which looks festive and warm.

After looking at the new house, Xiao Yu wiped away her tears and said, "Okay, okay, now I feel relieved. You and Xiao Yu will live a good life in the future."
Xiao Qinyu nodded and said, he would.
Everything that needs to be prepared has been prepared. The food has been prepared in the canteen, and the private car fleet to pick up the bride and the car to pick up the dowry have been borrowed. We are just waiting for tomorrow to come.
But after dinner, Xiao Qinyu sent Xiao Xu, Xiao Qinyun and others to the guesthouse, where he met Xiao Wang who was waiting there.
Xiao Wang followed them into the room and pulled out some paper and money from his pocket. "Brother Xiao, I've counted the items. There are 23 of us who want to buy. I've written down the items and quantities that each person wants to buy. Here's the deposit. The deposit slip is as you requested. The goods must be delivered within a week. Sign and stamp your fingerprints. Make two copies. Deputy Head Xiao will be a witness, and you all sign and stamp your fingerprints together. After we're done, we'll each keep a copy."
Xiao Qinyu didn't understand what was going on. After Xiao Qinyun pulled him aside and explained the whole story, he looked at his elder brother gratefully and signed and put his fingerprints on it.
After Xiao Qinyun signed and stamped his fingerprints, he looked at the statistical table. There were a total of 13 color TVs, 18 tape recorders, and a deposit of 2,372 yuan. The money and the amount were consistent. He just had to wait until his younger brother got married tomorrow, and then he could take the elderly and children to Hong Kong.
On July 9, Xiao Qinyu got married. Xiao Qinyu and his family got up early, exercised and washed up, went downstairs to meet up, and then rushed to the cafeteria.
After finishing breakfast, they looked around the cafeteria and saw that there was nothing they could do to help, so they went back to the bridal chamber to wait for the bride.
At about 10 o'clock, Xiao Qinyu, along with Captain Chen and several other young men, rode a 28-inch bicycle with a big red flower tied on it, followed by a military truck to pick up the bride.
Qiao Qinglu and the others did not go to watch the fun, but stayed in the new house to prepare tea, snacks and sweets as they had to entertain the guests later.
At around 11 o'clock, the sound of firecrackers was heard outside the house and the bride arrived.
In addition to the "three turns and one ring", she also brought two wooden boxes, two quilts, two towel blankets, and two 28-inch bicycles.
Mrs. Li, Sister Yu, and the four little kids also came.
After the two of them came over and spread the bedding for the newlyweds, Qiao Qinglu discovered that there were some sesame seeds, red dates, longans, lotus seeds and White Rabbit milk candies hidden on the bedding.
Then, Qiao Qinglu went to the living room to pour tea for Xiao Qinyu's comrades and relatives of the Yu family, and gave them candies and snacks.
The triplets of the Xiao family and the four children of the Yu and Wang families were welcomed into the bedroom. They jumped and made noises on the bed together, rolled around twice, and then got out of bed with White Rabbit milk candies.
After they came out, Xiao Qinyun led the newlyweds into the bedroom and asked them to sit on the bed.
After some banter, everyone prepared to head to the cafeteria.
