Siheyuan diet for men and women

Chapter 1014 Heartbroken

"The naughty guy actually despises the Buddha the most"

Shen Guodong curled his lips and said: "Don't think they are eating Buddha's food, but if they see a thief's eyes, they will go up and 'wash' it."

"Hey! That's what I mean~"

Sha Zhu nodded in agreement: "The Buddha has to call the naughty boy grandpa~"

"Hehehe~"

After hearing this, everyone found it interesting and started to chuckle.

It was just a casual chat, there was no topic, and we just started talking about Li Xuecai.

Li Xuewu stretched out his hand and pinched Xuecai's shoulder, saying with a smile: "Don't listen to them, whether they are troublemakers or Buddhas, they are all scum in my eyes."

"Second brother, I..."

Li Xuecai didn't dare tell this to his second brother because he was afraid that he would think he was cowardly and incompetent.

Ji Yuxiu glanced at him, feeling impressed by his honesty and at the same time pleased that he was doing his duty.

While working in the institute, I have seen too many young people who are not doing their jobs and are naughty and mischievous.

Even though she didn't have much education and only graduated from high school, she scoffed at the idea that women don't like men who are not bad.

Her family education environment did not allow her to have such unorthodox thoughts.

It’s better for men to be honest and responsible. It’s not like they don’t have real abilities.

Speaking of real skills, Li Xuecai cures diseases and saves lives and supports his family. Isn’t this an ability?
Do you have to fight and show off your power to be considered domineering and capable?
At least he can do what those little thugs can't do!

"Listen to my second brother, you don't have to worry about these things. If someone causes trouble for you, hide first and I will deal with them later."

Ji Yuxiu didn't serve as the director for the past six months in vain. His skills may not have improved much, but he was ruthless enough to do anything.

Nowadays, people carry guns when they go out and ask for money at any time. If she doesn't act tough, no one will respect her.

Li Xuecai glanced at his second brother and nodded to show that he understood.

Sha Zhu was watching carefully from the side and said to Li Xuecai with a smile: "We are just talking for fun. Don't really think these people are so powerful. They are just afraid of you."

As he said this, he half-jokingly pointed to Li Xuewu and said, "These people are your second brother's targets. When he wants to shoot, that's when these people's names will be drawn on the King of Hell's Book of Life and Death."

Li Xuewu glared at him with amusement, raised his head slightly and denied: "Nonsense, it's been a long time since I last..."

"Ba~ba~"

Maybe Li Shu had had enough of playing with her great-grandfather, so she came to find Li Xuewu again.

Naturally, he wouldn't talk nonsense in front of his daughter. He had to show his kind side.

“Is snow fun?”

Looking at Li Shu's little shoes covered with snow crumbs, Li Xuewu squatted down, held his daughter on his lap, and knocked on the fire with his back to her.

They are cloth shoes. If they are exposed to fire, they will melt into water and will cool down by then.

In fact, my daughter’s shoes are not too thick, so I didn’t plan to let her play outside for a long time.

It’s just that Yu Li was willing to put in the time and money when making the shoes. These shoes look like cloth on the outside, but they actually have suede lining.

When making shoes for children, the materials are generally not cut like this, especially when it comes to fur.

The main reason is that children grow fast, so whether it is shoes or clothes, they have to be replaced after not wearing them for long.

But who asked Li Shu to be favored by Yu Li?

Seeing Li Xuewu's doting look as he took care of his daughter, everyone started chatting and laughing.

"Have you ever thought that the devil can also be gentle one day?"

Sha Zhu put his hands in his trouser pockets, gestured to Li Xuewu, and teased everyone.

Everyone just laughed, but no one dared to make the same joke about Li Xuewu as he did.

Li Xuewu didn't care, and didn't care about the dirt on Li Shu's shoes. He hugged her and warmed herself by the fire, and replied to Sha Zhu: "Don't talk about me. I've been waiting for this day for you!"

“Hey~Hey!”

Sha Zhu pouted and said unconvincedly: "Me? I am the kind of person who is willing to let my children get beaten. No beating, no success!"

"Well, you're only good at talking!"

At this time, Yu Li walked out of the yard, said something to Sha Zhu, then walked to Li Xuewu and took Li Shu over.

She cherished Li Shu, but the time they spent together was too little. She had to hug her every time they saw her. She couldn't cherish her enough.

Li Shu knew what was right and wrong, so she put her arms around Yu Li's neck and called her "Auntie" affectionately.

Not to mention that she often receives new clothes and new shoes. She is so young, but she knows who treats her well.

Yu Li kissed her again and again and teased her again and again. Fearing that she would be cold, she did not stay there and turned around and went straight to the yard.

Sha Zhu shrugged his shoulders, looked at Li Xuewu and said: "Finally after today, my son will be born, and it will be his birthday."

"You still care about this?"

Li Xuewu squatted down, picked up the wood at his feet and threw it into the fire. He clapped his hands, stood up and said, "The day is near, you should pay more attention."

"He really cares!"

Shen Guodong crossed his arms and introduced to Li Xuewu with amusement: "He reminded me every day to leave someone at home, and he personally checked to see if the car was ready and whether the fuel tank and water tank had enough water."

"Hehe~ Anyway, I can't let my son suffer!"

Sha Zhu was not afraid of being laughed at by others. He just smiled foolishly, as if he was sure that he was really going to give birth to a son.

An old man walked in from the gate, saw them talking and laughing, and greeted them: "What are you talking about? It's so lively."

"It is said that Zhuzi gave birth to a son."

The seventh brother laughed and said, "He has already calculated when his son will be born, when he will go to school, and when he will get married!"

"Hahaha~"

Everyone burst into laughter, laughing at Sha Zhu's naivety and wishful thinking.

The old man also smiled. Regardless of his sons and daughters, he was happy for Sha Zhu.

"You came back by yourself?"

He walked to the campfire, talked to everyone, and greeted Li Xuewu.

"I heard your dad say during the day that your wife is about to give birth, right?"

"more or less"

Li Xuewu introduced with a smile: "It's hard to say who came first or later than Diliya, but I don't know who came first and who came later."

"Of course we go first!"

Sha Zhu stood on the other side and said with his neck stiff, "We got married first, so naturally we are the eldest brothers!"

"Hahaha~"

The old man smiled and nodded along with him, agreeing with his point of view. Whenever this kid talked about children, he would never give in.

Li Xuewu deliberately teased him, "What's so good about being the eldest brother? You still have to take care of your younger brothers. Why don't you let us go first?"

"Never mind! We'll go first!"

Sha Zhu waved his hand and said confidently: "Even if we have to take care of my brother, we will accept it!"

He said to the people around him with a smile on his face: "We have decided to be the big brother!"

"What's there to argue about~"

I don't know when the rain came out, and he stood behind me with his arms folded, pouting and saying, "What a fight, isn't there an uncle in the backyard?"

"Hahaha!"

Shen Guodong suddenly laughed and pointed at Yu Shui and said, "I didn't expect you to be such a master of dry jokes!"

When everyone reacted, they looked at Sha Zhu and Li Xuewu with a smile.

Sha Zhu also figured it out, and pretended to beat his chest and stamp his feet, saying: "Alas, seniority is so devastating!"

The New Year is all about having a New Year atmosphere, talking and laughing, just to have fun.
-
Front yard, Yan's house.

Although it is New Year's Eve, the atmosphere is particularly depressing compared to usual times.

Ge Shuqin coaxed the child to feed before going upstairs.

"Shangwu" is a Northeastern dialect. It is also called this in the capital because of the Manchus entering the country. It actually refers to the main hall of the house.

There is only one upper house in this courtyard, and that is where Sha Zhu lives.

But according to the calculations of each household, the upper room of the Yan family is the room where the mother-in-law lives.

Now Ge Shuqin still lives in the side room where she lived when she married Yan Jiecheng.

But now that the child is a little older, it’s not convenient to always ask the mother-in-law or sister-in-law to bring her meals.

Every time it was time for dinner, she would wrap up her child and go to her mother-in-law's house to help.

Now she has a salary from the steel rolling mill, which means she has a guaranteed living, but she has never lived alone, and she doesn't care about the living expenses that her father-in-law had discussed with her and the debt that Yan Jiecheng owes to the family.

The salary for the first two months was collected by her father-in-law on her behalf and did not reach her.

She was just given an account of which parts were used for her and her children's living expenses and which parts were used to repay the family debts.

Because I haven't found a job yet, I only get the minimum wage, but it's still a lot.

Generally speaking, a son is your son and a granddaughter is your granddaughter. I have never heard of a son’s debt being repaid by his daughter-in-law after his death.

What’s even more absurd is that it’s okay to calculate the living expenses of the daughter-in-law, but even the living expenses of the breastfeeding child have to be calculated.

Ge Shuqin didn't care about it. She didn't even ask how much money her father-in-law received from the factory, nor did she look at the bill sent by her sister-in-law.

At that time, her only thought was on her newborn baby.

It was really premature and the baby was malnourished. He didn't even have the energy to cry and just kept whimpering, no better than a puppy.

But it was the eggs and nutritional supplements sent by the neighbors that saved the child's life and her life.

She had thought about it a long time ago. Yan Jiecheng was a ghost who was being collected for debts, and he deserved this disaster.

When he was with Yu Li, he asked his family to collect debts. When he was at work, he asked his brothers to collect debts. After he married her, his father asked him to collect debts. There was no peace in his life.

Looking at her newborn baby being tossed around by her mother-in-law, Ge Shuqin felt hopeless.

As long as the child couldn't survive, she would not live either. It would not be in vain for her to be with Yan Jiecheng. Even if she died, the three of them would die together.

But who can blame God for not recognizing people in distress and not having pity on her and the child? Instead, he insisted on leaving the child to suffer in the world.

What else could she do? She just didn't have the courage or the heart to strangle the child and take him with her.

So Ge Shuqin gritted her teeth and lived well to provide a good life for her children.

She had suffered too much from having no parents to love her since she was a child. If she were to pass away, there was no telling how much suffering this child would have to endure in the Yan family.

Perhaps her parents-in-law also saw her stubbornness and tenacity, so they stopped making things difficult for her and tortured her no more.

My mother-in-law is always nagging, but she always gives me a hot meal at mealtime.

Life was tight at home, but those eggs, after turning over and over, still found their way into her mouth.

They said they hated Yan Jiecheng for being unfilial and for not giving birth to a son, but people are human after all, and given the mother-in-law's personality, she wouldn't be the kind of person who would be so cruel as to starve the mother and daughter to death.

So the days were full of chaos and chaos, but after stopping and starting, we finally got through it.

Ge Shuqin is grateful to everyone in her heart, grateful to her family who tolerated her and accepted her, and to those who reached out to help her.

Qin Huairu in the backyard never stopped Banggeng from sending eggs to her.

Even though I know it was exchanged by my second uncle, I am still doing you a favor by selling it, not to mention that I am selling it at a low price.

An auntie would often visit her, hiding from her mother-in-law, to teach her how to take care of herself and the children, and would often give her noodles with eggs.

Nowadays, eating a mouthful of corn noodles is considered a full meal, let alone noodles made entirely of white flour.

What's in that bowl is not an egg, but a hot heart of concern.

Aunt Liu from the Li family who lived next door rarely came, but she brought a lot of things.

The child has grown up to the point where he is plump and has the strength to drink milk. This means he has survived by eating food from many families and learning from many kinds of people.

It's quite something. Although life is hard and there are too many premature births, the child is not annoying. He eats when he's supposed to and does what he's supposed to do, unlike when he was just born and would toss and turn in the middle of the night.

The one who was most grateful was Li Xuewu, who had mixed emotions towards this young but dignified neighbor.

She came to the capital with Yan Jiecheng, who was working under him at the time.

Not to mention how much he took care of Yan Jiecheng in the beginning, he later went to the racing team as an instructor, which was also a top position.

Who told her to be confused? Who told Yan Jiecheng to be incompetent? He didn't have the blessing to live the life he has now.

When she heard her father-in-law and mother-in-law arguing about giving Yan Jiecheng's job to her second brother-in-law, she really had no idea what to do.

I didn't dare to think about it, let alone ask about it, for fear of offending my family and having them kick me out.

Not for anything else, as long as the child can grow up well, even if I am kicked out of the house, I have to wait until the child is in better health.

She never expected that this job was given to her. From her father-in-law's helplessness and mother-in-law's indignant words, she learned that the order was signed by Li Xuewu himself, and no one in the security team dared to change it, let alone the personnel department.

She never thought of competing with her second brother-in-law for this position. She was so humble that she just wanted to provide food for her and her mother.

Getting this job made her feel anxious, but also a little relieved, as if the rope around her neck had loosened a little.

She picked a day when her mother-in-law was not at home, asked an aunt to help look after the children, and went to the steel mill herself.

Ge Shuqin didn't think about what to do, she just wanted to know what she could do and how to raise a child.

Unexpectedly, but also expected, she met Li Xuewu.

It was a little cold and formulaic, but what he said made her feel extremely safe and trusting.

She doesn't need to rush to report to work. She can take her maternity leave and then go to the security department to find him.

You will continue to receive your salary, but you don’t have to work for the time being, and it is confirmed that the order was issued by Li Xuewu.

One can imagine how grateful and complicated Ge Shuqin's mood was at that time.

Her parents-in-law didn't give her much of a hard time, because her face was already very ugly at the time and there was no room for improvement.

In fact, they should also know that Li Xuewu could not have had any contact with Ge Shuqin. He appointed Ge Shuqin to take over, on the one hand because of work routine, and on the other hand it might be to take care of orphans and widows.

No matter how much they complained about this matter, they dared not publicly say that Li Xuewu was unfair and that Ge Shuqin was unfilial.

We can only sigh and face this fact.

From that day on, Ge Shuqin had the motivation to live on, and she saw the future and hope for herself and her children.

She doesn’t care who takes her current salary because she wants to live with her parents-in-law.

Even if she goes to work in a factory, someone needs to help look after the child.

Another thing is that her current situation is not suitable for her to be separated. Without Yan Jiecheng around, the slightest movement would cause a big misunderstanding.

She is a widow with a daughter. Even if they fight over salary and property, she will be the one who suffers when a quarrel comes.

The only thing that made her sad was her second uncle.

To put it bluntly, it may sound unkind and unjust, but every family has its own problems.

Everyone knows that it is difficult to find a widowed sister-in-law, everyone knows that it is immoral, and everyone knows that it is difficult to speak up.

She was indebted to her second uncle, but she never thought of living with him.

Since we want to give the child a future, we can't let her be in an awkward situation in the future.

After all, she is a girl. How should she get married in the future?

I can't follow her example and run away with any man, thinking that it's better than home.

Once a woman becomes a mother, all her thoughts are on her children. She is afraid of her children, whether they are young or old.

What she was more afraid of was her mother-in-law's attitude, and she had long intended to agree to her second brother-in-law's wishes.

This matter is considered a taboo in the family, and my father-in-law has been angry and swearing a lot, but my second brother-in-law insists, and my mother-in-law spoils him, so life is not difficult, but face is difficult.

A few years ago, when the child was old enough to be carried out of the house, she took the initiative to come out and help without asking her mother-in-law to say a word.

Be it cooking, cleaning the house, or even washing up at home, she does it all.

I just want my mother-in-law to have pity on her, love her granddaughter, and stop mentioning her and my second uncle.

But there are always countless obstacles in this world, and she has to overcome them all.

The hemp rope is cut at the delicate point, and bad luck finds the poor.

We planned to eat dumplings on New Year’s Eve, but no one in the family was happy.

My father-in-law didn't want to be extravagant, so he just cooked two more dishes.

The second brother-in-law was competitive and went out to buy white flour and pork himself, insisting on eating dumplings during the New Year.

After quarreling for half a year, my brother-in-law and sister-in-law finally calmed down, became sober, and became scared. Now they don't even go out of the yard easily.

To put it nicely, it's called not doing your job properly; to put it bluntly, it's called just living a life of idleness and waiting to die.

Relying on the money in his pocket, my brother-in-law always thinks about himself and spends the whole day with a book in his hand, avoiding the "employment".

The sister-in-law is sensible and helps her take care of the children and do housework, but it is all instructed by the mother-in-law.

The family is rushing to celebrate the New Year, and they all have some things to settle for this meal of dumplings.

Yan Jiefang went out to buy a bottle of wine in the afternoon and came back, saying that it had been a year and he wanted to have some fun.

My brother-in-law hid away, fearing that he would have to share the cost of the dumplings and wine, so he waited until it was time to eat to come back.

My sister-in-law only works and doesn't talk. She has no money and no status in this family.

My father-in-law was sulking, listening to the sound of the box with a stern face, without any joy of the New Year.

Especially when listening to the hustle and bustle in the West Courtyard and looking at the red fireworks in the sky, he didn't know why he became even angrier.

The family next door was bustling with activity, as they were also preparing to make dumplings. Even more festive was Zhao Yafang, who was also giving birth.

They are both daughters-in-law, both gave birth to children, and live in the same hospital, but the difference between them is huge.

Ge Shuqin was not complaining. She had no right to complain. She just thought that this year was the first year since Yan Jiecheng left, so she had to get by.

But looking at the moment, I'm afraid this New Year will not be easy.
-
"Why go?"

Li Xuewu had just returned from the West Courtyard and saw Qin Huairu walking hurriedly outside.

Hearing his voice, Qin Huairu turned around and saw that it was him. She stopped and said in panic: "Xiaodang has a stomachache, I'll go buy medicine."

"This way!"

Li Xuewu pointed in the direction of his home and said, "My father is at home. Where are you going to buy medicine during the New Year?"

"I'm so anxious that I'm confused!"

Qin Huairu slapped her forehead, turned around and entered the hanging flower gate, and complained to Li Xuewu who came in behind her: "This child has no memory. He got a stomachache last time, and he still wanted to eat too much."

"They all treat it like you?"

Li Xuewu comforted them: "Children are children. They can suffer losses in other aspects but not in their mouths."

"You do have something to say"

Qin Huairu was so anxious that sweat covered her forehead. When she arrived at the door of Li's house, she hesitated again and turned back to ask Li Xuewu, "Nothing like that, right...?"

"Hurry up!"

Li Xuewu pushed her and said, "The child and your family are suffering, and you are still imagining nonsense."

"what happened?"

Liu Yin had heard the two people's movements a long time ago. She pushed open the door and came out. Seeing Qin Huairu's embarrassed look, she asked a question.

Li Xuewu pointed at her and said, "Xiaodang has a stomachache and is in a hurry to buy medicine, but where can she buy it at this time?"

"I'm sorry, Aunt Liu."

Qin Huairu said apologetically: "It's New Year's Day..."

"Hey~ you really are!"

Liu Yin pulled her into the house and said as they walked, "When has your Uncle Li ever been superstitious about this?"

“There are still children.”

Qin Huairu walked into the house somewhat awkwardly. Seeing Li Shun hugging Li Shu to cheer her up, she curled her lips and said, "Uncle."

"Did you eat something bad? Or something?"

Li Shun also heard the conversation at the door. He was reluctant to let go of Li Shu, so he held his eldest granddaughter and started asking.

Qin Huairu explained: "I baked the rice cakes in the morning and had a few left, so I planned to heat them up in the evening, but I didn't expect the children to eat them cold."

"I don't know how many I ate. Applying hot water bottles didn't work, and neither did covering myself on the kang. It hurt so much that I could only cry."

"Why are you so anxious now?"

Li Shun frowned, handed the child to Li Xuewu, pointed to the door and said, "Come on, let me take a look."

He was kind all his life and never turned away a patient.

I have seen patients even on New Year's Eve, but the more it is at this time of year, the more I cannot stretch myself.

The neighbors who live there are really saying that I didn't help when I was in trouble. I will be too embarrassed to carry this medicine box out in public from now on.

He walked in front, and Qin Huairu followed quickly behind, also aware of his anxiety.

That's what it's like at that time. If you eat something cold or get windy, most of the time the elders will teach you to lie on the kang to keep warm, or hold a hot water bottle and lie there for a while.

It may just take a short while and it will be fine in a while.

But this situation also depends on the person and the time. If this trick doesn't work, it will be very unpleasant.

Especially when it comes to children, they have no patience and will make trouble as long as they feel uncomfortable.

Seeing them go out, Liu Yin sighed a little with fear, but didn't say anything else but auspicious words.

No one wants anything serious to happen on New Year’s Eve, and no one wants anyone to have a bad New Year due to illness.

“Alas, it’s not that easy to raise a child.”

Perhaps he was thinking about the experience of raising several children in his family from childhood to adulthood, or perhaps he was seeing that his eldest son and second son both had children, and he felt that life was not easy.

Li Shu stared with wide eyes, not knowing what was going on. Seeing that her grandfather was gone, she didn't dare to be naughty anymore. Now that the biggest supporter of the family was gone, she became the most honest person.

When Li Xuewu put her on the kang, the old lady waved and she moved over obediently, playing with the toys the lady handed her.

She is the big devil in the family. Not only does she have several baskets of toys in the No. 1 yard of Haiyuncang, but she also always keeps a basket here.

If he is not busy on weekdays, Li Xuewu will bring her here to be taken care of by the old lady when he goes to work in the morning.

When I am on a business trip or busy, I can only play with Qin Jingru at home.

I am very familiar with this place, but I am not used to having my aunt around.

Even when she came to play at her grandmother's house during the day, she could only see her aunt when her father picked her up.

But today it doesn’t work, the big devil meets the young girl.

In the words of my aunt, she has to coil up like a dragon and lie down like a tiger, because she is the eldest in the family.

Normally, Li Shu would not argue with her about this, but when grandpa came back, she had to be the boss of the family.

There is nothing else to say. As long as she wants something, grandpa will satisfy her, even her aunt will.

Even when she talked back and fought, it was her grandfather who helped her, and her aunt didn't dare to come and retaliate against her.

Li Xue was busy watching the little one in the south room at the moment and had no time to tease her, but she didn't dare to be too presumptuous.

She knows how to protect herself. She is stubborn when she should be stubborn, and never seeks punishment when she should be honest.

Li Xuewu was in the main room watching his elder brother and others play poker while chatting with his mother.

Li Xuewen and Grandma's group, Li Xuecai and Ji Yuxiu's group, they fought against their opponents to upgrade.

The eldest brother and the grandmother are calm and steady when playing cards, but Li Xuecai likes to make noise, especially when he is happy today. He and Ji Yuxiu both like to be lively.

The bicycle issue was resolved. Li Xuewu told Ji Yuxiu to ride the bicycle directly to the police station tomorrow morning to register for lost and found. It was that simple.

At first, Shen Guodong said that he could just go to the club and ask Zhao Laosi to handle it.

But he did not agree. He did not want to give face to Zhang Jianguo, and he would not allow Zhao Laosi to have anything to do with these troublemakers.

Now he will not pursue the matter of the other party for forcing the broken car into his brother's hands, even if the other party picked it up.

It's also because he has a lot of things to do and is busy with work. He doesn't want to lose his status and get involved with these little brats.

If it were last year, I would have pulled these guys out, put them on the bicycle, disassembled them part by part, and taken them away in the crotch of my pants.

He is not a good-tempered person, but now he must have good self-control. He cannot do as Sha Zhu said and look for people to be targets. That would be useless.

Li Shun came back from outside after a while, with Bang Geng following behind him.

"Uncle Wu!"

Banggeng first greeted Li Xuewu, and then wanted to look into the inner room like a furry rabbit.

Little boys of this age all dislike dogs.

He knew that Aunt Avon had given birth to a fat boy, but he had never seen him.

He wanted to take a look at this moment, but was blocked by Li Xue in the inner room.

"Is Xiao Dang okay?"

"Sister Snow"

Bang Geng was not annoyed when he saw that Li Xue didn't let him see it. He first greeted her and then replied: "The master said there is nothing wrong, but you have to take medicine."

Li Shun was grabbing medicine in front of the medicine cabinet while answering his eldest granddaughter who was lying by the window in the inner room and asking him questions.

Li Shu had a lot to say to her grandfather. I couldn't get a precise number from him, but he probably chattered a lot.

Li Shun had no patience with his son. When it came to his eldest granddaughter's questions, he would answer them regardless and would never let her words come true.

Several people playing cards in the middle of the living room looked at Li Shun and laughed secretly.

Li Xuecai laughed the loudest here, and he couldn't help laughing even after being hit by Li Xuewu.

Li Shun has long been accustomed to it and no longer cares about how others view him, but he cannot give up spoiling his grandson because of others.

He treats both the big and small ones the same. After he comes back, he loves his eldest grandson. When he sees Li Shu loves his eldest granddaughter, he loves them very much.

I don’t know what’s wrong. Liu Yin really cares about Li Shu and Li Tang, but she just can’t show the same care towards Li Shun.

Little Li Tang was still young and didn't know much. He just did his best to sleep while breastfeeding. But Li Shu was most attached to Li Shun.

The grandfather and grandson were talking very busy together, whispering to each other, and no one else could hear them clearly.

After the medicine package was ready, Li Shun hung it up with a hemp rope and handed it to Bang Geng who was watching the card game.

This unfortunate kid doesn't want to leave yet and wants to wait until the end of this game.

Li Xuewu wanted to kick him in amusement, but allowed him to take the medicine home and come back later, and then let him run out the door.

"One is enough, how can I support three?"

Liu Yin pursed her lips and shook her head, seeing that the naughty boy was also worried about Qin Huairu.

She followed her thoughts and talked about the awkwardness when Qin Huairu came in just now.

Li Xuewu explained: "She was afraid that her family would be taboo about this and didn't want to bring the 'disease' into the house, fearing that the children at home would dislike it."

"That's what I said, but everyone has times when they are anxious."

Liu Yin sat on the chair and pounded her legs, saying: "It's good that we have this convenience. You don't see how anxious she is. It's not easy to be a mother."

Li Xuewu nodded and didn't care about it. He didn't believe these things anyway.

If you believe it, there will be nothing.

So there is no such mess in their house.

Or maybe it's because he looks too fierce, and ordinary things don't dare to get close to him. Even if he believes it, there has to be something special that he dares to see.

“This is their family asking us for help.”

Li Xuecai shook his head slightly and said: "When my sister-in-law was giving birth, she helped Aunt Jia, and she didn't say that she didn't want to help for free."

"Too many words~"

Li Xuewu saw his father frowning, and he scolded his brother, then said: "Watch your mouth in the future, why are you as talkative as the old woman on the street?"

"Everyone calls you brother!"

Liu Yin glanced at her son and said, "I didn't think of asking anyone for help at the beginning. Didn't I say I would ask for help first?"

"One more thing, you doctors should keep this in mind."

She pointed at her son and said, "Don't treat curing illnesses and saving lives as a favor; it is your duty."

Although Li Shun was also dissatisfied with his son's nonsense, his son and his wife had already warned him, so he stopped talking.

But the glance he gave his son contained a warning that he should not compare the past with the present.

If life is like this, you help me, I help you, calculating how much and how little, how important and how little, then this person will have no joy in life, and will be full of petty-mindedness.

Hey! You said that life is boring if you calculate too much, but some people only take calculation as their life.

"Why? Did you see it?"

Sha Zhu and an old man had a cup of tea in the back house and chatted for more than half an hour. Thinking about home, they went back together.

When passing by the central courtyard, he saw that the Li family was bustling with activity, so he did not go into the house. He waved to Li Xuewu through the window glass.

But when I turned around to the other side, the Yan family had already started a commotion. It was Yan Jiefang's voice, and it didn't sound like a good thing.

Sha Zhu knew the situation in this courtyard very well. In the past, he would either hang out on the streets or lie down at home.

It’s different now. I’m married and busy with the affairs of the back house. I hang out in this yard every day.

Nothing can escape his ears!

He had mentioned this to the person living in the back house earlier, saying that something was wrong with the Yan family in the afternoon. Teacher Yan had a stern face, as if he was collecting a debt.

He was really reserved in his words, he didn't say anything unlucky, he just said it was not peaceful.

Well, he really did as he said. The old man frowned, glanced at him, and quickly pulled him away.

After entering the second door, he reminded Shazhu, telling him to be more serious when entering and leaving, and not to always be in the mood to watch the fun.

Sha Zhu nodded, agreeing with the old man's words. He could tell good from bad, but he just complained about the past and always wanted to make a few jokes.

Before I reached the middle of the yard, I saw the second uncle in the backyard walking out with his clothes on.

They meet each other every day. The two of them had a conflict, but now they talk to each other when they meet.

Sha Zhu had a bad temper, but he managed to keep it under control. He wished a Happy New Year and asked a few small questions.

The main thing is how to spend the day and whether my son will come back.

The last time Liu Guangqi came back, he was discussing the issue of house replacement. He was thinking that he should put them together during the Chinese New Year this year.

Unexpectedly, Liu Haizhong nodded awkwardly, didn't respond, and went straight out the door.

Sha Zhu stared at his back blankly, then turned back to the old man and asked, "What's going on?"

"Liu Guangqi didn't come back"

The old man also sighed, thinking that he lived a lonely life without children, while those with children either had to live with quarrels or were upset and lonely.

Alas, what's the point of raising children?

Seeing the old man sighing and going home, Sha Zhu was speechless.

What’s going on this year? Isn’t there any happy event in every family?

Happy, almost too happy!
Front yard, Yan's house.

The powder keg was completely lit.

Because no one was in the mood to stay up all night, and we didn't eat much for lunch, so we were all hungry at this time of night.

Therefore, the dumplings are made early and quickly, and are cooked in the pot while they are being made.

I don't know where he was squinting, maybe he smelled the dumplings, Yan Jiekuang came in from outside.

Yan Jiefang didn't attack him, but just ignored him.

When the dumplings were served on the table, he came out from the inner room, took the bottle of wine he had bought in the afternoon from the cabinet, and opened it.

When we sat at the table, I didn't even invite my father to eat, nor did I prepare a wine glass for him. He ate dumplings and drank wine by himself with a glass of wine, as if he was holding back a lot of anger.

Ge Shuqin didn't dare to provoke him, and even asked her sister-in-law to bring the food to the table.

Because the child was sleeping in her mother-in-law's room, she helped in the kitchen to put up the last curtain and then went to the inner room to see the child.

Even when eating dumplings, she would wait for the second pot and let the man in the family eat first.

Maybe he was unhappy today, Yan Fugui looked down on his son when he saw his son's decadent appearance.

Especially when it comes to not knowing the rules, he claims to be a cultured person, but the children he teaches are worse than the last.

He knew that his son was angry with him and all his resentment was directed at him, but what had he done wrong?

The dumplings placed there looked like smiling faces facing him.

Laugh? A mocking laugh.

You don’t have the ability to eat dumplings during the Chinese New Year, right? Look, I earned it myself, so I am willing to eat it.

Not only do I want to eat, I also want to drink!
“Hoo~~~”

Yan Jiefang drank a full glass of wine, put the glass on the table and coughed.

Perhaps noticing that her father's face looked strange, Yan Jiedi quickly invited him to the table to eat.

"What is this!"

Yan Fugui walked down the stairs, glared at his son, stood up from the round table and walked towards the dining table.

Yan Jiefang glanced at him and asked, "What does it look like?"

Without waiting for his father to answer, he laughed and said, "Cripple, cripple, you haven't seen a cripple before, have you, Dad?"

Yan Fugui frowned when he saw his crazy look and said, "Are you targeting me?"

"Haha~"

Yan Jiefang poured himself a glass of wine and drank it in front of his father.

He contentedly picked up another dumpling and stuffed it into his mouth. After swallowing it, he looked at his father and asked, "For you?"

"How dare I!"

He said with a mocking look on his face: "You are the head of the family, I have to accept being beaten and scolded, how dare I go against you?"

After saying that, he handed the injured leg to the front, pointed at it, and said: "If you are unhappy, just give me a discount. I'm already lame anyway."

"Drinking some cat urine, I don't know which way is which!"

Yan Fugui was so angry that his forehead was bulging. He glared at his son and scolded, "You have become capable, haven't you?!"

Yan Jiefang ignored him and just drank and ate dumplings by himself, looking very comfortable.

Yan Jiekuang was like a rat. When he saw that things were not going well, he took a plate of dumplings and went to the side. He didn't dare to offend anyone, but he couldn't give up eating.

Only Yan Jiedi was more sensible. She comforted her father while persuading her second brother.

She raised her voice a little, just wanting her mother to come out of the kitchen quickly so that she could stop them from ordering.

She just let her block them and shout at them, but her mother was busy with her work in the kitchen and seemed not to hear her, or she simply didn't want to care.

Ge Shuqin picked up the child and hummed to comfort her daughter who was woken up, not daring to say anything.

The father-in-law in the main room became more and more excited and louder as he spoke, especially when he saw Yan Jiefang seemed to enjoy listening to his scolding, he became even more furious.

Maybe everyone has been holding back their anger for a long time, just waiting for a certain point in time when they can no longer hold it back and release it.

During this period, everyone in the family has been living a very depressed life. They have been very cautious with each other, fearing that they would ignite each other's fuse.

It was not until tonight that he realized what Yan Jiefang meant and he didn't want to endure it anymore.

"I know what you are thinking"

Yan Fugui pointed at his son and cursed: "It was me who broke your legs, it was me who forced you to go to work, and it was me who prevented you from embarrassing yourself..."

"a shame?"

Just this one sentence made Yan Jiefang, who was just enjoying himself, completely furious.

"Yeah, it's embarrassing. You think I'm embarrassing, right?!"

He faced his father's gaze, widened his eyes and said, "I didn't steal or rob, why would I be embarrassed? Why are you showing off?!"

"It's you"

Yan Jiefang looked his father up and down and said, "Isn't it shameful that he forced his son to death by collecting debts?"

"you!"

The blood vessels in Yan Fugui's head, which had recovered half a year ago, were hit by his son again, and the knife stabbed directly into his heart.

Even though three months have passed, Yan Jiecheng's death is still a concern for Yan Fugui.

He didn't say it, and no one said it in front of him, or no one bothered to say it.

But he knew clearly why his eldest son died.
