Siheyuan diet for men and women

Chapter 1015 The Adult World
The most heartbreaking words often come from the people who know you best.

Yan Fugui's reaction just proved that Yan Jiefang saw through his inner struggle.

For more than three months, my family has kept silent about this matter. It is a shared scar.

Now Yan Jiefang is like a madman, tearing it apart and making everyone suffer.

Yan Jiekuang stopped using the chopsticks in his hand, and Ge Shuqin in the inner room covered her mouth and tried to hold back her tears.

Yan Jiedi supported her father, but her eyes were wide open. She didn't understand why her second brother did this.

Especially the mother who hides in the kitchen, she would rather cry in the kitchen than come out to persuade her children.

What happened to this family?
"Second brother!"

Yan Jiedi cried out with tears in her eyes: "What on earth are you going to do?"

"Woooooo~"

She was actually still young and was really scared by the situation at home.

At this moment, she was crying and looking after her father while asking, "Can we still celebrate the New Year?!"

"Celebrate the New Year? Of course we have to!"

Yan Jiefang seemed to be crazy. His expression was full of madness, and even the words he said sounded like nonsense to her ears.

"Why not? These dumplings are so delicious~ Yeah!"

He picked up a dumpling and put it in his mouth, then said as if savoring the taste: "It's been so many years since I had a hearty meal of dumplings during the Chinese New Year."

After saying this, he turned around and looked at his third brother Yan Jiekuang, suddenly smiled and said, "Eat, eat as much as you can, today is the New Year in our family!"

"..."

Even if Yan Jiekuang was not very careful, he knew it was not his turn to use the chopsticks.

The chopsticks in his hand were heavier than a weight at this moment. He didn't dare to look at his second brother's madness, nor did he dare to look at his father's decadence.

It’s not that I’m unable to do anything, but I can’t bear it and I don’t want to face the situation of my family being torn apart.

"Why don't you eat? Drink?"

Yan Jiefang smiled, waved his hand, and said, "Wine is good. Drinking it can make you forget everything. Do you want some?"

Yan Jiekuang kept silent and put the chopsticks in his hand on the table.

Not to mention drinking, he didn't even dare to eat.

"Ho~"

Seeing that he didn't drink, Yan Jiefang drank another glass himself. As he drank, tears flowed from his eyes.

"Eat dumplings and drink wine. The more you drink, the more you have!"

"After drinking this glass of wine, I forgot my worries and sorrows...I forgot the sufferings I had in the past, my broken leg, and my..."

His eyes never left the door of the inner room, because the person he wanted to forget was in the room.

"Second brother~~~"

When Yan Jie Di turned around, she found her mother standing there holding the door frame with tears on her face. She quickly put her father down and went to support her mother.

"Mom! Are you okay? Mom!"

She kept shouting because she saw her mother's face was pale and her eyes were full of misery. She seemed to be even crazier than her second brother.

"Second brother, you want your father's life?"

Hou Qinghua held the door frame with one hand and walked into the house with his daughter's support with the other arm, stumbling to the table.

"Mom knows you're suffering, and I won't let you suffer~"

With the help of her daughter, she sat on a stool and looked at Yan Jiefang and said, "Send your father away first. When he dies, I as a mother will not stop you."

"mom!"

Yan Jiedi looked at her mother in shock and then at her father in fear. She didn't know why her family had come to this point.

Yan Jiekuang finally couldn't stand this oppression anymore, he stood up silently and walked out.

No one was paying attention to him, and he didn't want to disturb anyone in the room. He just wanted to go out and get some fresh air, otherwise he would feel like he was suffocating.

Hou Qinghua seemed not to hear his daughter's call. He just pointed at his wife and said to Yan Jiefang: "Look at his behavior. If you say a few more words or do a few more tricks, maybe he will come over."

"We won't treat it this time."

She said with a look of dementia: "Let's just wait for him to die. Once he dies, no one will stop you."

Yan Jiefang's fingers were dark blue as he pinched the wine glass, his fingertips were flattened, the chopsticks in his other hand were shaking, and the madness on his face turned into struggle.

Of course he knew that his mother was speaking in a sarcastic way and that it was a warning under extreme circumstances.

"Mom, I feel so miserable."

"Mom knows, Mom knows"

Hou Qinghua looked at her son as if he was crazy, nodded and comforted him: "Yes, yes, Mom knows everything, Mom understands you."

“No, you don’t understand.”

Yan Jiefang drank another glass of wine, poured it himself, looked at the glass and said: "I have never been happy in my life. I have to be cautious about everything and fight for everything. I am so tired."

His tears suddenly came down and he choked up and said, "We have to maintain the image of teachers' children outside. Other people's children can play, but we have to stay in the room and pretend to read and do homework."

"Other people's children can make mistakes, but our children, as teachers, must rank in the top three."

"It's fine outside. It's our incompetence that brought shame to the teacher, but what about at home?"

His face was filled with resentment. He ignored the tears that fell and stared at his father who was sitting in silence on the chair. He gritted his teeth and asked, "Do you hate that you have too many children? You have to put a few of them in a bowl and fight them to death to feel satisfied?"

Snapped! ~
Suddenly, as soon as Yan Jiefang finished speaking, he was slapped by his mother.

After beating Yan Jiefang, Hou Qinghua was also stunned. Then he seemed to regret and said in a warning tone: "You can't say that about your father and your brother...it's me...it's me!"

"Haha~"

Yan Jiefang looked at his mother with a wry smile, not caring about the pain on his face at all. This made him feel that he was still alive.

"You care so much about him, has he ever thought about your pain?"

As he spoke, he turned to look at his father and said, "Do you really think that my mother killed my eldest brother? Didn't you take the money? In your eyes, money is always more important than children..."

"enough!"

Yan Fugui slapped the table, but it seemed as if all his strength was consumed in this slap.

He looked at his son breathlessly. His head no longer hurt, but his heart was cold.

"You're deceiving yourself, right?"

Yan Jiefang was not afraid of him, and sneered: "You think that the money was given to my mother by my sister-in-law, and my mother gave the money to you, so you are not involved in the cause and effect, right?"

He stared at his father with a gloomy tone and said, "My elder brother will never forgive you, never."

After saying this, he glanced at his tearful mother, picked up the glass and drank the increasingly bitter wine.

Yan Jiedi was also crying at this moment. She fell to the ground and lay on her mother's legs, crying.

What the second brother said was extreme, but every word was true. If their father hadn't been so stingy with money, why would the brothers and sisters have been scheming against each other since childhood?

At this time, Yan Jiekuang came back from outside, walked into the house silently, hesitated, and put a handful of money on the eight-immortals table.

This was the money he secretly saved up when he participated in activities outside.

I had gold and silver, and I exchanged them for money, just wanting to get out and live my life as soon as possible.

But now my life is hopeless and my family is about to break up. What’s the use of this money?

Listening to what his second brother said, he could not think more clearly that his eldest brother's death was closely related to the tense atmosphere between his parents and brothers at home.

You are worried that I will eat too much, and I am worried that you will take too much. Brothers are more calculating and calculative than friends outside.

He didn’t know what he felt in the past, but now he just felt hard and extremely tired.

He took a wine glass from the cabinet, sat next to his second brother, picked up the bottle, poured himself a glass of wine, closed his eyes and drank it.

He really wanted to take out the money as soon as possible, even if it was not much, it could temporarily ease the conflict at home.

Only when his family was about to break up did he realize that only with a home could he have a roof over his head, while every child in every family had to sleep in the open air.

Hou Qinghua just cried, hugging her daughter and crying. She said harsh words, not cursing her lover to death, but trying to ask about her son's feelings.

If you are willing to let your father die for your own sake, then she will be dead and her life will be miserable.

But what we know now is that all the depression in the son's heart was stuck together. Even though he blamed his father like this, he never thought of anything unfilial.

I didn't know what to say. As a woman, she had the energy to raise a few children.

No matter how much, she has to listen to the head of the family.

Yan Fugui sat there, gripping the armrests of the chair tightly with his fingers, afraid that he would not be able to support himself and would slide down.

Looking back on the past twenty years, my two identities, a teacher and a father, seem to have been failures.

When teachers fail to educate students well, a situation arises where students control the teachers.

If the teaching is not strict, the teacher is lazy.

When a father fails to discipline his children well, he will remain resentful and refuse to correct his mistakes even though he knows they are wrong.

It is the fault of the father to raise or not to teach.

I have done a lot of wrong things in my life.

"You want to blame me, even hate me"

Yan Fugui spoke with difficulty, his tone filled with deep fatigue, and said: "It's up to you."

He raised his head and looked at the inner room, then looked at Yan Jiefang, pursed his lips and paused, then said: "What kind of life do you want to live, what kind of path do you want to take..."

"It's up to you"

It is really difficult to say this, but I still say it with certainty: "I don't care. I won't make things difficult for you or myself."

The crying in the room gradually subsided. Hou Qinghua hugged his daughter, sat there with tears in his eyes, and looked lifeless.

Yan Jiefang no longer spoke, but just drank silently with his brother, taking turns drinking.

“But I have to say something first.”

Yan Fugui tried to straighten his back and said in a cold tone: "If you want to be independent and self-reliant, then show some example. Being decadent and drunk won't solve the problem."

“You, too.”

He pointed at his youngest son and daughter and reminded them: "As long as you are in this family, you have to contribute. I raised you when you were young, but I won't take care of you when you are old."

"I don't count on you to support me in my old age"

The latter sentence was said with great sadness, but it was still said, and it was said very firmly.

"Okay, that's it. After the New Year, you can handle it yourselves. This house has no share for you. You will all leave after graduation."

"Okay, I'll go."

Yan Jiefang finished his last dumpling, drank his last glass of wine, and nodded happily, saying, "I won't bother you anymore in the future."

After saying that, he was about to stand up, but maybe because he drank too much or because his legs were not very convenient, he almost stumbled and fell.

Thanks to his younger brother Yan Jiekuang who supported him, he avoided getting his head smashed.

"Hoho~"

Yan Jiefang looked at his brother's pale face with amusement, stood up with all his strength, and patted his hands again.

"It's okay. I'm happy today. Really happy."

He held his brother's hand and said sincerely: "It's the first time, the first time I've drunk with you since I was a child. I didn't expect to be so happy."

After saying that, he let go, turned and went into the inner room. After a while, he rolled up his bedding, limped out carrying his clothes bag.

"Second brother..."

Yan Jiedi had already stood up, stared at him blankly, and asked, "Where are you going?"

"Doorman, I'm on duty today."

Yan Jiefang swayed a little, but still tried to smile at his sister and said, "We'll just make do with this for one night and go out to look for an apartment tomorrow."

“Where can I find a house now?”

Although Yan Jie Di is young, she is a grown-up girl and she doesn't understand anything.

There are few job opportunities in Beijing now, but there are many people, and when there are more people, there are fewer houses.

Even people with jobs may not be able to get a house or a dormitory, let alone my second brother who is penniless.

The money he earned from making matchboxes was given to his sister-in-law every month as a subsidy. Maybe today's dumplings would be the last money he had.

Yan Jiefang had already taken two steps and was now standing at the door, with his back to his family, staring out the door with empty eyes, but he was smiling and comforting his sister, saying, "God will not let a blind sparrow starve to death."

After saying that, he opened the door and walked out of the house resolutely regardless of his sister's calls.

Only when he walked out of the house did he truly realize what his concept of home was. It was not just a roof to shelter from wind and rain.

There are people who care.
-
"We're going to make dumplings, what are you doing?"

When Sha Zhu saw Li Xuewu carrying the child out, he greeted him with a smile.

Liu Yin, Ji Yuxiu and others who came with him also chatted with him for a while.

Li Xuewu shook his daughter and explained, "It's not possible this year. Our family is waiting for us to go back and celebrate the New Year. We'll have to wait until next year."

“It will be fine next year”

Sha Zhu thought about what Li Xuewu said and muttered, "Next year he will be one year old and can crawl. It will be so lively when we get together!"

“You just like the excitement.”

Li Xuewu didn't ask his mother and the others to send him off again. He even turned a corner when he reached the west yard because it was really cold outside.

The snow is still falling, but there is no wind. If you wear something thicker, it will feel really comfortable.

While talking to Sha Zhu, they walked out of the Chuihua Gate together.

As soon as I arrived at the outer courtyard, I saw a few guys coming out of the gatehouse, muttering to themselves, as if they were dissatisfied.

But when they saw Li Xuewu coming out with the child in his arms, they all shut up and went out quietly.

Sha Zhu glanced at the doorman, raised his hand to signal Li Xuewu to go to the west courtyard, and whispered: "Yan Jiefang, he broke up with his family and moved out on his own."

"In the concierge?"

Li Xuewu didn't care about what happened between Yan Jiefang and his family, but living in the gatehouse was not a good thing.

Sha Zhu meant the same thing and said with a curled lip: "Who knows? An old man wouldn't allow that. The gatehouse is for the public."

"I don't think Yan Laokou would dare to have such an idea."

He said meaningfully: "It's not necessary to have a quarrel with my son to put on a play just to occupy a piece of space."

“You think so much.”

Li Xuewu saw the people from the back room coming out to see him off, and waved his hand, signaling them to go back and continue playing.

Sha Zhu accompanied him all the way to the west courtyard, and Yu Li followed him out.

The Li family, who lived across the street, probably knew what happened to the Yan family, but Li Xuewu was unwilling to say.

In the west yard, the bonfire was still burning, and all the unwanted waste was piled in and burned.

A few years ago, my grandfather pulled back a few heavy lumps of wood from the pile of trees being treated by a gardener on the street.

This thing is too solid. It is difficult to move and burn.

Pile it up and burn it. As long as you watch it carefully, it will stay hot until tomorrow morning.

Why a bonfire?

Because it is economical and does not violate any taboos.

Fireworks and firecrackers are not allowed, but no one cares about burning firewood.

The presence of fire symbolizes prosperity. Moreover, it is snowing today, and with the warmth of the fire, the yard is not cold.

Didn’t you see that the snow in the West Courtyard is lighter than that in the Big Courtyard? It’s just that the hot air is rolling and forming a warm current.

When Li Xuewu came out, Lao Qi helped drive the car out so that he could carry the child into the car.

Yu Li finally took a look at the sleepy Li Shu and stuffed a small red envelope into her cotton-padded jacket, saying it was New Year's money.

Li Xuewu didn't care about this. He greeted Sha Zhu and the other man with a smile, waved to the people standing at the gate of the outer courtyard, and drove out.

Yu Li and Sha Zhu stood there, watching the command vehicle disappear into the alley before they looked away.

"What did you just say to him?"

"What? Oh~"

Sha Zhu was stunned by Yu Li's sudden question, then he smiled, pointed to the direction of the front yard with his chin and said, "Third Uncle's house."

As he said this, he motioned Yu Li to stand in front of the fire. While warming herself, he explained, "When I went back then, I heard a quarrel in their house. Later, Bang Geng learned from them that Yan Jiefang had moved out of the house."

"Awesome?"

Yu Li raised her eyebrows and asked, "Did you ask him to keep an eye on you?"

"Me? Stop it."

Sha Zhu sneered and said, "I have nothing to do with their family. Bang Geng was playing catch with the kids in the yard and overheard it by accident."

“This kid is getting more and more annoying.”

Yu Li muttered something, then looked at the red flames in the fire and said, "Life is actually quite unpredictable, right?"

"How do you say this?"

Sha Zhu asked first, then thought about it and nodded: "Who would have thought that I, He Yuzhu, would also have a son."

Seeing that he brought up this topic again, Yu Li glanced at him, grinned and said, "Yes, it's true that even someone so ugly can still find a wife."

"You're nosy!"

Sha Zhu glared at her in dissatisfaction, then thought about it and felt surprised. He smiled foolishly and said, "Who says we are so lucky?"

"Fortune favors fools?"

Yu Li teased him and then said, "I was wondering what my life would be like if I had other choices."

"You? Aren't you feeling fine now~"

Sha Zhu looked at her and asked, "What are you dissatisfied with about yourself now?"

“No, I was just thinking.”

Yu Li squatted down and sat on a wooden lump beside the fire. She hugged her arms and said with pursed lips, "Thinking about the past."

"have a bee in one's bonnet"

When Sha Zhu saw his sister standing in the window of the back room looking over here, he waved and then sat down with Yu Li.

"Let's not say anything else for now. Just remember that if you don't get a divorce, then Ge Shuqin is you now."

“Well, maybe.”

Yu Li rested her chin on her arm and for some reason started chatting with Sha Zhu.

When Yu Shui came over, they were talking about the past events in the yard.

It was about how the people in the courtyard viewed her and how she viewed the people in the courtyard when Yu Li had just gotten married.

Yu Li even talked about her impression of Sha Zhu when she first saw him, and she thought he was quite stupid.

“Your impression is absolutely correct.”

Yu Shui sat next to her and said with a pout, "My brother is just stupid."

"Go, don't talk about me"

Sha Zhu shook his head, hugged his arms on his knees, and said to the two of them: "I am just a cynic at best, not as bad as you say."

"Moreover"

He curled his lips and said, "I'm really stupid. Can your sister-in-law like me?"

"Stop being so arrogant!"

Yu Shui rolled her eyes and said, "If it weren't for...if it weren't for my sister-in-law being alone and helpless when she first came to the capital, would she have chosen you?"

The pause in her words was very brief, but Yu Li had already caught it. It seemed that Yu Shui was talking about Li Xuewu.

Since when did he become the person that this girl never mentions, and what kind of romantic debt did he get into?

Yu Shui did not notice Yu Li's change. She was arguing with her brother at the moment, with a look of disdain and unwillingness in her eyes.

Sha Zhu lost his temper after hearing what she said. He stood up angrily and walked back.

Yu Li jokingly scolded Yu Shui and shouted at Sha Zhu's back, "Are you really angry?"

“No, let’s go make dumplings.”

Sha Zhu turned around and warned them: "Don't play with fire, be careful not to wet the bed."

"Go away!"

Yu Li was just being kind and afraid that he would really get angry, so she picked up a small stone and threw it at him.

Seeing Shazhu walking into the yard with a giggle, she pouted and said to Yu Shui, "Look at your brother."

Yu Shui shrugged his shoulders and said, "You thought he was a good person just now."

"Then who do you say is a good person?"

Yu Li suddenly caught up with Yu Shui's words and looked at her with a meaningful smile.

Yu Shui glanced at her and quickly turned his head away from her, but he felt that this was obviously guilty, so he emphasized: "What good person? What are you talking about?"

"Are you pretending to be stupid with me?"

Yu Li bumped her with her shoulder and didn't look at her again. Instead, she kicked the wood chips at her feet into the fire, and seemed to be advising her: "It is easier to draw the skin of a tiger than the bones. You can know a person's face but not his heart. Women can't afford to lose, so they must choose the right person."

Yu Shui understood what she said, was silent for a moment, and asked: "What about you? Have you found the right person?"

"still……"

She looked at Yu Li hesitantly and asked again, "Do you regret it?"

"Haha, why regret it~"

Yu Li smiled, picked up a small branch from the ground and put it into the fire to stir it casually, muttering: "I have always been confused, taking one step at a time, and maybe I don't even know what is right or wrong."

"Looking back?"

Yu Shui stared at her and asked, "Looking back, are you glad or regretful?"

“No, none of them.”

Yu Li supported her arms on her knees, turned her head to face the rain, and said: "My first relationship was not all indifference and disappointment, so I am not grateful."

"As for regrets, that's even less so. Just like your brother said, at least I'm fine now."

"You believe my brother's words~"

Yu Shui curled her lips speechlessly, folded her right leg, supported her chin with her right hand and rested it on her leg.

"Anyway, I see he has nothing to do all day, talking about this and that and meddling in other people's business."

"Hehe, he hopes you can find a good man to marry soon~"

Yu Li looked at her and asked, "What kind of person are you looking for?"

Without waiting for Yu Shui to answer, she moved her eyes and asked, "Or..."

"No, you're overthinking it."

Yu Guo decisively denied Yu Li's words without even letting her finish.

She knew what Yu Li wanted to say. It would be better if she didn't mention it. If she really said that name, she would be embarrassed.

Yu Li nodded slowly and said: "Actually, I don't think there is anything wrong, you know... I just feel it's a pity."

"What's a pity?"

Hearing her say this, Yu Shui became interested and asked curiously, "Do I feel sorry for him? Or do I feel sorry for him?"

"What a pity for him~ hehe~"

Yu Li chuckled, glanced at Yu Shui and said, "You're really close to him, he can't wait to take advantage of you, do you think he's really a good person?"

After saying that, he shook his head and smiled: "I feel sorry for you. Life is something that you can choose seriously. It is destined to be brilliant, but it will also cover up all your hopes and light."

"Is that what you think?"

Yu Shui was touched by her probing of her inner thoughts, so she asked back without any scruples: "So what's going on between you and him now..."

"What is it? A lover, not even that."

Yu Li smiled and bumped Yu Shui's shoulder, saying, "If you follow him, maybe he would be willing to support you for the rest of your life."

“Forget it, I can support myself.”

Yu Shui curled her lips, lowered her head and said, "He doesn't like me and even avoids me on purpose."

"Bullshit~"

Yu Li said with a smile: "I've only heard that wolves don't eat vegetables, but I've never heard that dogs don't eat...meat."

Her words sounded a little harsh, but that was what she meant: "I told you, he's not a good guy. He's so happy to have young girls around him."

"Haha~"

Yu Shui chuckled, then shook her head and said, "Really, a few days ago, he left me alone in the hotel and went back by himself."

"When? Oh!"

Yu Li frowned slightly, then understood, and nodded: "Your brother talked about the night you didn't go home, right?"

"How many people did my brother tell that I stayed out all night?!"

When Yu Shui saw Yu Li said the same thing, she frowned and complained in dissatisfaction.

Yu Li put her arm around her with amusement and said, "Your brother means well and is afraid that you'll meet a bad guy."

"But he didn't expect that there would come a day when wolves would stop eating meat."

She teased Yu Shui and then asked in a low voice, "Do you believe that he only has the kind of relationship we have?"

"Ho~"

Yu Shui didn't answer, but her slightly helpless and sarcastic chuckle expressed her feelings.

Yu Li also nodded and said, "I only know a few of them, so I say he is not a good person."

"Where's Sister Qin?"

Yu Shui suddenly seemed to remember something, frowned and asked: "Recently it seems that they..."

"You see it too?"

Yu Li looked at her in surprise, and was certain that Yu Shui had fallen in love with Li Xuewu, otherwise she would not have paid so much attention to the relationship between him and him.

"It sounds funny, but that's the situation."

She paused, looking at the rain, and explained, "Maybe one day, my relationship with him will gradually become distant, and we will just be friends or partners...you know."

"Then...what do you think?"

Yu Shui looked at her and asked, "Just waiting like this?"

"if not?"

Yu Li looked at her with amusement and said, "I have already caught up with the person you like. Will I give up so easily?"

"I don't like him"

Seeing her speak so bluntly, Yu Shui still stubbornly emphasized it, and then asked, "Aren't you afraid that he won't want you?"

"Afraid, afraid at all times, but~"

Yu Li smiled and said: "He didn't belong to me originally, I was the one who stuck to him."

"If one day he really doesn't need me anymore, I will just walk away quietly and watch him get better."

'A bit unfair'

Yu Shui pursed her lips and said, "I don't like this, I feel even more disappointed."

"Where's the fairness? What do you want?"

Yu Li looked at her and asked, "What do you think he can do for me?"

"No, I never asked him to do anything for me because he has done enough for me."

"Including Qin Huairu, she is more contented"

Yu Li explained to her: "We know that going any further or getting entangled will cause trouble for both of us, so why bother?"

"I always said that she was a smart person and never wanted to get Li Xuewu, but now she has got what she wanted."

"Do you think it's unfair to Li Xuewu?"

Yu Li looked at Yu Shui with a smile. Seeing her shaking her head, she also shook her head and said, "He is just like that. He has a very clear mind."

At this point, she sighed, took Yu Shui's hand and advised: "That's why I said you should take the initiative to stick to him, he will definitely be willing."

"He can support you, give you a good life and opportunities, but he will never give you love."

Yu Li's expression became very serious and she reminded Yu Shui: "There are a lot of girls who like him. There are many who stick to him in the club, but he doesn't even touch anyone who dares to fantasize about him."

"Do you get me?"

"He and those little girls...?"

Yu Shui’s imagination is indeed amazing. She understood what Yu Li said, but the key point was a bit off.

Yu Li shook her head in amusement and said affirmatively: "Never, he is so bad, he just teases those little girls."

"Oh, I figured it out."

Yu Shui curled her lips and said, "He is so timid."

She thought that she had been brought to him, but he still left her alone in the hotel, which was enough to prove how cowardly he was.

Yu Li nodded and said in agreement: "It can be said that she was extremely cautious, otherwise it couldn't be Qin Huairu, it had to be me, right?"

"He is still a ruthless scoundrel"

Yu Shui made a sharp comment about the bastard, then curled his lips and said, "He is really not a good person."

"It's good that you know"

Yu Li smiled and said, "I was wondering if he had a new love since he was distancing himself from us. It seems I was overthinking it."

"Are you still afraid of this?"

Yu Shui grinned, looked at Yu Li, and said, "Didn't you say..."

"Yeah, I mean just go with the flow, but it doesn't stop me from caring."

Yu Li looked at her and said, "Do you know how long I haven't been with him?"

"Let's not talk about Qin Huairu. He has less contact with the few relationships I know about. Don't you feel puzzled?"

Very bluntly, she said to Yu Shui: "I can guarantee that he definitely didn't touch the girls in the club, let alone in the factory. You should understand this."

"It's impossible at home, impossible at work, and impossible for me. He's too busy outside to have time."

Yu Li asked her with a smile, "What do you think I should think? I can only think of you."

"I didn't~"

Yu Shui shook her head to deny Yu Li's guess, and said with a curled lip: "What if... he doesn't want to do it anymore, or he can't do it anymore, who knows."

"Oh~ bullshit~"

Yu Li curled her lips, glanced at Yu Shui and whispered, "He...you'll know if you try him, he's incredibly powerful."

"What are you saying~"

Yu Shui felt a little embarrassed by what she said, so she pushed her and said, "You just talk nonsense."

"Yeah, just treat me as nonsense."

Yu Li smiled and teased her: "Don't try it, otherwise you will get addicted."

"Yeah~"

Yu Shui blushed and tried to pinch her neck. The two of them laughed and played, and there was a breath of spring around the fire.
-
The laughter and jokes between women always exceed men's imagination, even a little excessive.

At special times and in special circumstances, this is what may be talked about. Both parties may want to open up and talk, and thus they will have a common secret.

Yu Li knew Yu Shui's feelings and confusion, and through Yu Li's confession and narration, Yu Shui also knew how bad Li Xuewu was.

In response to Yu Li's persuasion and warning, combined with the long conversations and contacts between the two some time ago, Yu Shui had actually made a rough decision in his mind.

Otherwise, she wouldn't have asked her brother to arrange a blind date for her. She just wanted to end this confused life as soon as possible.

Just pick anyone, as long as he looks good, does a good job and has a good personality, that's enough.

Even though my beloved is good, how can I follow him from far away?

The old wound has not yet healed and it will take a long time to heal.

Even thinking like this, I can't help but feel a little pain in my heart. I only hope that time will dilute everything, including my love for that person.

Of course, she did not doubt Yu Li's alarmist rhetoric and persuasion with ulterior motives, but the facts are the facts.

You want to ask whether Li Xuewu can still be together with Qin Huairu and others after they have broken up.

Asking this question only means that you don’t understand the adult world very well, or you are too entangled.

When it comes to love, nothing is absolute. No one can say for sure whether you will fall in love with someone when you sit together with them.

Human beings are not machines. One is one and two is two. If they have abilities, they have more choices.

On the contrary, Qin Huairu and Yu Li were much more cautious when making their choices.

Yu Li just told her that Qin Huairu didn't want to find someone to live with, but she didn't mention it until now, not because of Li Xuewu, nor because of her mother-in-law.

Qin Huairu thought about it and decided not to look for it anymore.

When I was a worker, life was difficult and I naturally wanted someone to support me.

But now, women who have a worry-free life and stable jobs and have experienced the trivialities of life have become mentally mature.

You are not childless, so why do you need to find an old man to serve you?

Just for that...it's solvable, as long as you can look at it in an open-minded way.

Whether it is Li Xuewu or anyone else, if they really choose to be single, she will have more choices.

Looking at Yu Li, she herself said that Li Xuewu never said he would support her, let alone think about being with her for the rest of his life.

Whether she is willing to find one, when to find one, and what kind of person to find is all up to her.

She herself doesn't want to find a husband. Even if she doesn't have children, she doesn't want to start a family with all the chaos and serve a big boss.

Regarding children, Yu Li admitted that there was no room for discussion and warned Yu Shui that this was something she had to be cautious about.

Even Lou Xiao'e, whose whole family is in the club and works hard for Li Xuewu, can't get it, so others can forget about it.

Being together is never because of love, it may just be a way to keep each other warm or comfort each other in the difficult life.

You say this is a chaotic relationship with no bottom line, but the adult world has always been like this.

Zhou Xiaobai desperately wants a sweet love, but she is only seventeen years old.

At that age, they can have endless fantasies and even dreams.

But Li Xuewu never took the initiative to enter their dreams, and didn't even give them any chance.

what is love?
Zhou Xiaobai might say that holding hands means love.

But Li Xuewu is very clear about his feelings. His love is more mature and more luxurious, which is not available to ordinary people.

Being happy together is not love. Only being together forever and having both unhappiness and happiness at the same time can be love.

Li Xuewu couldn't give both happiness and unhappiness to Yu Shui at the same time, so she knew very well what to choose.

Of course it's happy to be together, but you can only be happy all the time. Unhappiness will destroy the relationship and cause complicated consequences.

Before you prevent this situation from happening, don't think about being happy, just give her your unhappiness directly, this way both of you will feel relieved.

What Yu Li told Yu Shui was the side that Li Xuewu showed, but which Yu Shui saw but had not yet seriously understood.

If she really wanted to bet on Li Xuewu's future, given her status as a girl, she would naturally get more.

For example, the promises that Yu Li and her friends had never received, such as better resources and opportunities, and a comfortable life and future.

But you will also lose much more, including choices about the future, the opportunity to be a mother, even the courage to walk in front of him upright, and your family.

The difference is clear when comparing the two.

To have a pure love is harder than climbing to the sky, especially for two adults.

Because for adults, love means responsibility and commitment.

Courtyard, gatehouse.

After chasing away the card-playing guys, Yan Jiefang spread the bedding on the kang and casually placed the clothes pocket in the corner.

The stove was burning very brightly, and I didn't dare put the mattress on the small kang at this time, as it might really catch fire.

The feeling of loss after leaving the house, and the cold wind blowing through the doorway, made me feel drunk and my mind seemed to be clearer.

He had no idea what it felt like to become more sober the more drunk he got, because he had never drunk wine without water.

Sitting on the kang, looking at the tools for making matchboxes in the corner, I wondered if I would have to do this for the rest of my life?
thump~
Just as I was still confused, the wooden door of the gatehouse was pushed open from the outside.

He tried to raise his head and open his eyes, but he felt that he was really drunk and was starting to have hallucinations.

How come my sister-in-law is here?

Bang~
The wooden door closed again. The cold wind made him shiver. He shook his head and then he saw clearly that the person standing in front of him was his sister-in-law Ge Shuqin.

"Sister-in-law..."

"You're not going home?"

Ge Shuqin held the child in her arms and looked at him seriously and asked.

Yan Jiefang was stunned for a moment, confirmed that it was really his sister-in-law, then shook his head and said, "I'm not going back."

Ge Shuqin looked at him for a long time before asking, "Are you just being angry, or do you really have ambition?"

"..."

Yan Jiefang was silent for a moment, then he raised his head, looked at her and said seriously: "My leg is lame, but I am not disabled."

He said: "I don't have any ambitions, I just want to live a good life and see what kind of life I can become."

Ge Shuqin looked at him for a long time again before she said, "Pack your things and come with me."

"Where?"
