Siheyuan: My wife is Xu Huizhen

Du Guanghe was so angry that his whole body was shaking and fire was almost spitting out of his eyes.

That look seemed to be able to burn everything in front of him to ashes. He stared at the other half of the jade pendant in He Yuzhu's hand, his heart filled with unwillingness and anger.

This is a treasure that I finally got after going through countless hardships and dangers and spending many years asking around for information!

But now it was easily possessed by He Yuzhu. It felt like the treasure he had carefully guarded was taken away by someone, which made him heartbroken.

He Yuzhu remained expressionless, as if he didn't care about Du Guanghe's anger at all.

He took the jade pendant in his hand and examined it carefully, his focused expression seeming as if he was looking for some hidden secret.

The texture of mutton-fat jade is delicate and warm, exuding a faint luster and sparkling charmingly in the sun. It is indeed a priceless treasure.

However, just because it is a piece of mutton-fat jade and worth some money, is it worth it for them to remain so secretive and refuse to admit it?

He Yuzhu couldn't help but feel doubtful.

"Is there any secret about this?"

He Yuzhu finally broke the silence and asked.

There was a hint of curiosity in his voice, but more of confusion.

"This is only half. It is said that this jade pendant is related to the inheritance of an immortal."

The other party answered solemnly, with a mysterious gleam in his eyes.

"The inheritance of the immortal?"

He Yuzhu opened his eyes wide, his face full of disbelief.

He never thought that a small jade pendant would be related to the legend of immortals.

In his opinion, these were just absurd stories passed around by people. How could they be true?

"Yes, that's what others have said. To be precise, I guess the so-called immortals are old immortals who have entered the Gang Realm, or those who have reached a higher realm above the Gang Realm."

The other party continued to explain, his tone full of certainty.

He Yuzhu fell into deep thought. He began to re-examine the jade pendant in his hand, trying to find some clues from it.

The jade pendant seemed to carry a magical power, attracting him to explore the mystery within it.

He secretly made up his mind to find out the truth behind the jade pendant, no matter what the cost.

He Yuzhu was stunned for a moment and said, "Forget it, it's still midnight, go and get some rest."

Then he sent the jade pendant into the space and collected all the valuables.

Du Guanghe sighed, shook his head, and went to another room farther away.

If I lived next door, I would avoid hearing my granddaughter singing loudly in the room.

Du Weixiang naturally helped He Yuzhu wash and wipe his body, and then they went to bed to rest together.

He held He Yuzhu and got beaten, then asked, "How are you going to arrange for me and Grandpa in the future?"

"After I finish my work here, you will come back to the capital with me."

He Yuzhu looked at Du Weixiang and felt a little helpless. He patted her shoulder gently and said:

"Don't make such a fuss, this is all for your own good.

After all, Beijing is our home, where everything we are familiar with is. When you return to Beijing, you can continue your previous life."

Du Weixiang's eyes flashed with a trace of grievance, and he muttered:

"But I don't want to go back. I'm used to it here, and I can't bear to leave you and grandpa."

He Yuzhu's heart softened, and he held her in his arms, gently comforting her:

"Be good, don't be angry. I will make good arrangements for your life after I finish my work here."

At this moment, the room fell into silence, with only the sound of two people's rapid breathing intertwined.

After a long time, Du Weixiang raised her head, her eyes showing a hint of determination, and she said:

"Okay, I'll listen to you, but you must keep your word and not lie to me."

"Could it be that you really have other intentions and are actually thinking about leaving me?"

When Du Weixiang heard this, he was startled, as if hit hard by something. He shook his head hurriedly, looking extremely flustered and uneasy.

Deep down in her heart, she didn't really want to go back to the capital, where she was just a captive and she didn't want to experience being trapped in the basement again.

However, she couldn't express her thoughts directly at this moment, so she could only say euphemistically:

"I mean, I want to ask you, how do you plan to properly place my grandfather? He is the most important relative to me."

"You're talking about that old man!"

He Yuzhu frowned slightly, and a hint of thought flashed in his eyes.

Seeing this, Du Weixiang nodded vigorously, with determination and expectation in her eyes:

"I have decided to follow you for the rest of my life and give birth to a son or daughter for you. I only ask that you show mercy and let my grandfather go back to his hometown. He has been wandering in this foreign land for too long. It is really time for him to go back and enjoy his old age."

He Yuzhu looked at the woman in front of him with a pleading face, and a complex emotion surged in his heart.

He was not a heartless and ungrateful person. After all, he had slept in the same bed with the other person's granddaughter. To some extent, he was also the other person's elder.

He knew very well that if he offended the old man to death, it would probably cause unnecessary trouble and disputes.

Moreover, if he could successfully complete his mission, it would not be impossible to let the old man go back at that time.

He sighed softly and said slowly:

"This matter still depends on your family's subsequent performance. I do have other important tasks to accomplish this time, and I may need your help at that time. If you can actively cooperate, perhaps I will consider the request to let the old man return home."

Du Weixiang's lovely face was filled with a happy smile. Her soft lips gently touched He Yuzhu's cheek, as if carrying a sweet breath, and then she smiled happily and thanked him.

Then, her bright eyes were full of expectation, and she asked cautiously:

"Can we contact our parents and ask them to come over? I really miss my dad, mom, and my sister."

He Yuzhu was slightly stunned. He had indeed never asked about Du Weixiang's family before. When he heard her mention that she had a family, he couldn't help but feel a little curious and asked, "Do you have any family?"

Du Weixiang rolled her eyes at him playfully and said coquettishly:

"Look at what you're saying. I'm not a monster that popped out of nowhere from a crack in a rock. Of course I have parents who love me, brothers and sisters who play with me, and a cute and well-behaved sister."

He Yuzhu pondered for a moment and said slowly: "Okay, since you miss them so much, then contact them."

When Du Weixiang heard this, she was immediately very happy. She kept rubbing against He Yuzhu's arms like a happy little bird, and her coquettish look was so adorable.

Then, as if she suddenly thought of something, she shyly reached her hand down and a faint blush appeared on her face...

Du Weixiang's face seemed to be dyed with gorgeous clouds, and she said shyly, "Good brother, I still want it."

A hint of pampering and tenderness flashed in He Yuzhu's eyes, and he naturally would not refuse her request.

The two of them were entangled with each other like glue, tossing and turning tirelessly until the sky turned pale and the dawn light slowly spread. Only then did they fall into a deep sleep with satisfaction.

At this time, Du Guanghe had already stood up before it was completely light, and he bent down, punched, and kicked swiftly, concentrating on practicing boxing and martial arts.

But just as he was immersed in the world of martial arts, he heard faint sounds coming from the bedroom. The sounds were like fine needles piercing his heart again and again.

His face instantly turned gloomy as water. His originally resolute face was now covered with gloom, and the anger in his heart burned like a ignited flame.

He gritted his teeth, suppressed his inner anger, turned around and ran straight to a far corner, found a secluded place and stood still, clenched his fists tightly, his chest heaving violently, unable to calm down for a long time.

Before noon, the lazy sunlight shone onto He Yuzhu's face through the gaps between the mottled leaves, as if gently awakening his sleeping soul.

He Yuzhu got up in a daze, stretched himself, and then told Du Weixiang to prepare lunch quickly.

When he saw the old man's face, which was so gloomy that water seemed to drip out of it, he couldn't help but feel an inexplicable sense of strangeness in his heart. He knew that there were some things he shouldn't ask too much about, so he just watched silently and didn't take the initiative to ask the reason.

After finishing the rather dull lunch, Du Guanghe and Du Weixiang each took out their brand new Hong Kong ID cards from their pockets.

Du Weixiang smiled and patiently explained: "I will take you to take a photo in a while. After you get the photo, you can go and handle it. Just give a little money and it will be done smoothly tomorrow."

He Yuzhu heard this and said hurriedly:

"Aren't my old photos enough? Why do I need to take them specifically?"

Du Weixiang shook her head and said seriously, "No, you have to go to a designated photo studio. The equipment and procedures there meet the requirements."

He Yuzhu nodded thoughtfully, muttering, "Oh, so that's how it is. I see."

Then, He Yuzhu didn't say anything more and followed Du Guanghe and the other two to the designated photo studio.

With a crisp "click" sound, his first photo for ID card application was born.

After taking the photos, the three of them left the photo studio together and walked towards the bustling commercial street.

The streets are crowded with people, and all kinds of hawking sounds and laughter are intertwined, as if forming a vivid picture of the market.

He Yuzhu followed behind Du Guanghe, silently observing everything around him, but in his heart he was still thinking about the ID card he had just applied for. He didn't know what troubles or surprises he would encounter next...

In the capital city, all kinds of items can only be obtained with receipts, as if everything is firmly controlled by order and rules.

However, when they stepped into Hong Kong, it was as if they had entered a completely different world. Here, transactions became so casual and free, without any cumbersome procedures and restrictions, and they could buy and sell as they pleased.

The two walked side by side, first heading towards the clothing store. They carefully selected clothes that suited them, and each of them carefully purchased three sets.

After choosing the clothes, they couldn't wait to throw the stolen old clothes on the ground. Watching those filthy things gradually go away, they felt an inexplicable sense of relief in their hearts.

At this moment, they looked completely new, no longer looking so dishevelled, and their clothes were no longer as baggy and ill-fitting as before, but fit their bodies perfectly, making them look much more normal, as if they had integrated into this new world.

Then, they went to buy some daily necessities and food. Walking on the bustling streets, the most direct and profound feeling is that this place seems to have become the world of the British.

Looking around, almost all the people patrolling the streets are white. Of course, there are also Chinese police officers, but they are not equipped with guns, and only hold a baton in their hands. They look like they are walking with their heads shaking, and their demeanor reveals a bit of banditry, just like a tyrannical bully.

The roadside stalls were filled with a wide variety of goods, and the gangsters could just reach out and pick up the items, then walk away without having to pay a penny.

He Yuzhu initially thought that the so-called police were just a mere decoration, and he couldn't help but feel an urge to step forward and teach them a lesson, but was quickly stopped by Du Guanghe who was standing by.

"Don't do it, you don't even have your ID card yet, and you mustn't cause any serious trouble, because serious things are the most important."

He Yuzhu's face was full of resentment, his eyes flashing with anger, and he whispered:

"These people are too arrogant, they are simply lawless!"

Du Guanghe sighed heavily, his voice seemed to be filled with endless helplessness and resentment. He said slowly:

"Ah, who made this place still that damned concession?"

Before this, he had never found the right opportunity to speak, but now that he had the chance, he began to introduce himself cautiously and softly.

The life of the Chinese at this moment is like being trapped in hell, and the feeling of living a life worse than death is deeply imprinted in everyone's heart. Those who control their fate are the rude and unreasonable British, who do whatever they want without caring about the lives of the Chinese.

Whenever there is any contact with the official, one must use that disgusting English. Even if one is deeply attached to one's mother tongue, one is not allowed to use Chinese.

In the overall social environment, Chinese people have no status at all. Even if they want to run a small business honestly, they still have to suffer ruthless exploitation from the underworld.

If the underworld is still considered better, then today's police are even more brutal and dark than the underworld.

They blatantly collected black money, and their greedy look was like a hungry wolf. If you dared to refuse to give, a group of thugs would immediately rush over, smash the store to pieces, and then walk away after beating you up. The hard-earned money of many people was far from enough for these corrupt officials to embezzle.

Du Guanghe had lived here for a period of time and had accumulated a lot of painful experiences. Seeing this scene now, he couldn't bear it and told all these experiences to He Yuzhu without hesitation.

He was well aware of the dangers of this place and was afraid of getting into trouble, so he did not dare to stay any longer. He hurriedly pulled He Yuzhu up and hurried back to the familiar courtyard, as if only there could he feel a sense of security.

The night passed quietly, as if time was also asleep, without causing any ripples.

When the sun slowly shone the next morning, covering the earth with a layer of golden light, He Yuzhu, as usual, walked steadily towards the place where the photos were stored.

After getting the photo, he went straight to the police station without stopping for a moment.

The moment he stepped into the police station, he quickly walked to the service window and stuffed a stack of bills into it without hesitation.

The police officer with yellow teeth patted his chest and promised solemnly:

"Don't worry, I'll definitely let you get your ID card this afternoon. I won't delay your business at all!"

When He Yuzhu was about to get off work in the afternoon, He Yuzhu couldn't wait to come to the police station again.

When he saw the brand new ID card in his hand, which smelled of ink, an indescribable joy welled up in his heart.

The big yellow tooth couldn't help but give some instructions:

"Remember, there are no household registration books in Hong Kong. Only the ID card is the most important proof of identity. And on this busy street, patrolling police may appear at any time. They will randomly check ordinary people's ID cards, so you must always carry it with you and don't be careless."

He Yuzhu nodded seriously, thanked him and walked out of the police station.

Now, He Yuzhu finally got his ID card, and he seemed to become tougher and more confident.

He strolled around the street with confidence, and from time to time, he would buy a lot of things.

After all, this money is not his own, but belongs to Lao Du's family. He must now enjoy the satisfaction brought by this "windfall".

Walking back, when she was almost home, she heard a quarrel. She quickened her pace and saw three men in fancy clothes surrounding Du Weixiang in front of the house, not letting her leave.
