The ups and downs of life in the Siheyuan

Silly Zhu took another sip of wine and touched his mouth with his sleeve.

"In the kitchen of the steel rolling mill, my current cooking skills should be this", he said and gave a thumbs up.

"Wang Mazi is also senior, otherwise I would have taken the position of chef."

"Deputy Section Chief Sun, who is in charge, is a bastard. He flatters others and bullies superiors and subordinates every day. He has long been disliked by him. If my brother had not been well-educated, he would have been slapped with big ears."

"Hey, there's a girl in our kitchen. She looks a little bit different, but her figure..."

"Brother Zhuzi, come on, have a drink," Li Yuan interrupted quickly.

He Yuyu angrily entered the back room with a bowl in hand.

"This kid is trouble!" Shazhu whispered as he looked at He Yuyu who was leaving.

"Let's continue. That girl, that figure, is amazing. Even Wang Mazi looks like she's glowing green, hehe..."

"Let me tell you, I am a serious person. I will look down on anyone with bad looks. If there is someone like Sister Qin, I will take her down without hesitation."

"Speaking of this, my brother got excited. On our wedding day, we listened to the corner and was chased away by Jia's mother-in-law several times. In the end, I almost froze to death. In the end, I heard a few groans. It was very boring."

Li Yuan smiled while eating the food and nodded frequently. If you are a good listener, the other party will treat you as a confidant.

Silly Zhu did it again without Li Yuan's persuasion or invitation. It was like he was thirsty and couldn't bear to drink it.

Li Yuan doesn't drink well, so he can only raise a glass to accompany him, taking a sip at a time.

"Later, Sister Qin gave birth to a fetus, and my heart seemed to be lost. It was very uncomfortable."

Just one sip and another drink.

"You know, Xiao Yuanzi, my brother likes Sister Qin. But we are decent people and can't do those dirty things. As long as she lives well, I will be happy."

As he spoke, he wiped away his tears.

"Little... Motoko, don't laugh at my brother. My brother knows this is not good, but, but..., forget it, let's not talk about it. What I said is right, neighbors help each other, yes, they help each other." .

"Hehe, brother is great, wuwu... TMD".

"Brother told you, the rain is also heavy, and I have to think about her, so I am ready to break up, find a wife, and have several children.

At that time, my brother and his family were talking even more forcefully in the courtyard. In the future, if that little brat marries Yuyu and dares to bully her, I will take a few of my little brats and beat the crap out of that brat."

Silly Zhu picked up his rice bowl and took a few big bites of the food. He accidentally knocked his back molar on a bone, cursed, lowered his head and spit it out, along with other food in his mouth.

Li Yuan put down the bowl, picked up the wine glass, and took a sip. The strong stimulation gave him some relief.

"Let me tell you a secret, Mr. Jia, mother-in-law of the Jia family, hehe...", as he said that, he let out a burst of obscene laughter.

Li Yuan was very happy because he ate a big melon today.

Searching through the memory, some of Yi Zhonghai's actions were explained.

"Come on, Brother Zhuzhu, let's drink."

The two clinked glasses. Silly Zhu raised his neck and the wine glass bottomed out.

"Brother Zhuzi, with your skills, you will definitely be able to become a chef. When you have status and your salary has increased, you will not be able to choose the girl."

"Hey, Xiao Yuanzi, you still have the vision. My brother will definitely choose the best one when the time comes."

"However, you are not young now. I have looked for you several times on the street, and you have been on blind dates. They all complained. If I wait until you are developed, I am afraid that all the outstanding girls will be picked out by then. .

Therefore, I think I should find one as soon as possible while I am young.

You can lower your requirements appropriately, it’s too beautiful and you won’t trust it at home, don’t you think so?”

Silly Zhu had never thought about the problem from this perspective in the past.

"Well! What you said makes sense. Just like Sister Qin, if she hadn't met me, she would have been fooled long ago. It seems that we have to think about it in the long term."

"That's right. Besides, marrying a virtuous wife is a life-long companionship. Just being good-looking doesn't mean anything." Li Yuan struck while the iron was hot.

"Think about it again. If you give birth to three or five children in the future, you will definitely not have time to take care of it if you are busy with your career every day."

"That's for sure, men... outside the house, women... inside the house, our ancestors have been following this rule for many years."

"Does it take a mother to educate children? If a woman thinks about dressing up every day, how can she have time to educate her children?"

"Your reasoning is making my head hurt...forget it, let's drink."

Li Yuan didn't expect to convince Sha Zhu in one go, just plant a seed in his heart.

Besides, radish and cabbage, everyone has their own preferences, and they choose their own path, so why should others comment on it?

Li Yuan remembered that He Daqing ran away with a widow. He didn't bother to investigate why a man left his own children and ran away with a widow.

But the parents of the original owner had spoken about the consequences of joining the gang.

Before liberation, if the master of that family died or was paralyzed, and the children in the family could not survive, after the husband's family agreed, they would find a man, and both parties would be willing to help take care of the children.

This man is more like a long-term worker. In fact, the young and old in the family are not very close to this man. This is called ganging up.

This man also knows that selling his physical strength just for a woman is actually just greed for temporary pleasure.

Under normal circumstances, if the man can no longer work, or can no longer make money, or if the male in the family has established a family, he will be kicked out of the house.

After liberation, the state did not allow this kind of behavior, but there were still some such problems among the people.

For the sake of He Yuyu's future reputation, he also had to try to persuade Silly Zhu.

Besides, Silly Zhu is not bad in nature, but he is a bit lazy and he likes to bully Xu Damao in the courtyard.

These two boys are very strange. They have not dealt with them since they were young. Silly Zhu learned wrestling at Qianmen. Although Xu Damao is tall, he has little strength.

He is often the last person to be pressed.

Xu Damao is also a stubborn person. He has never surrendered once and dares to charge at Silly Pillar every time.

It reminded Li Yuan of cartoons from another world, "I, Big Big Wolf, will come back!"

Because Shazhu has learned wrestling, there are many taboos in it, so every time Shazhu looks fierce, but he is measured and rarely rushes for vital points.

So Xu Damao's parents mostly watched, and sometimes they would politely apologize to Silly Zhu.

The main reason is that Xu Damao is a mean-mouthed person, and he always pokes at Silly Zhu's 'weakness'.

Every time, Silly Zhu was so angry that he howled.

Not to mention, this compound would be a lot less fun without them.

The two of them drank for a while, but Shazhu's mind stopped spinning and he started talking nonsense.

While he was still able to move, Li Yuan greeted Yu Yu and prepared to help Sha Zhu go home.

He Yuyu ran out, put down the bowls and chopsticks, and hurriedly ran to the other side to support Si Zhu.

Regardless of how they usually had conflicts, they were blood relatives after all, and the worry on her face at this time showed her true feelings.

"If you can't drink, drink less."

"Hey... men... people, you women... don't... understand." Silly Zhu was still conscious.

He Yuyu was so angry that he wanted to leave him, but he still held back.
