Start to adjust the Siheyuan from Brickpai Yizhonghai

Chapter 14: Calculations by All Parties

The most calculating person in this courtyard is, of course, the third uncle, the door god Yan Laokou.

Smelling the aroma of stewed meat in the air, I wondered how I could have a good meal.

There are many people in my family, and I rely on my own salary of 27 yuan a month. Life is tight for a family of five, and I have to calculate my life every day.

Even his catchphrase is: You won’t be poor if you eat well and drink well, but you will be poor if you don’t plan well!

With this opportunity to have a meal at someone's house, how could he be willing to be left behind, even though he knew that Jia Zhang had just suffered a setback at the hands of Wang Gensheng.

But the third uncle just thought that Wang Gensheng had an old grudge with the old Jia family, and based on this kid's past behavior, he should give him some face.

How could he have imagined that although Wang Gensheng still looked the same on the outside, he had already become an interesting soul on the inside.

The third uncle came as shamelessly as usual, ready to have a free meal of meat.

With a smile on his face, he said to Wang Gensheng: "Gensheng, Uncle San sees that you are not young anymore, do you want to consider arranging a marriage?"

Many people in the courtyard knew that Wang Gensheng and He Yushui had been engaged since childhood.

But almost everyone was not optimistic about this marriage. They all believed that after He Yushui went to high school, she would be disappointed with the street boy Wang Gensheng.

He will definitely regret the engagement.

Afterwards, He Yushui's attitude towards Wang Gensheng took a 180-degree turn just as everyone expected.

These past two days, no one has taken He Yushui's impression of Wang Gensheng to heart.

Seeing Wang Gensheng frowning and remaining silent, Yan Bugui thought he was shy and unable to speak.

So, he laughed and said, "It's okay. There's a new female teacher in our school. She's very young and pretty. She's also from a scholarly family. I'll introduce her to you two later."

As Yan Bugui said this, he turned sideways and tried to go home.

Wang Gensheng still frowned and said nothing, his eyes fixed on Yan Bugui's actions, neither agreeing nor refusing, waiting for his next move.

The outcome of this incident was completely beyond everyone's expectations, and before Wang Gensheng could even reply.

He Yushui, who was behind him, heard the news from afar, and walked forward aggressively, with his hands on his hips, and started fighting with Yan Bugui.

"Uncle San, do you not want to be a primary school teacher anymore? Are you trying to steal Aunt San's business and become a matchmaker? You are really doing something ruthless!"

As soon as these words were spoken, before Yan Bugui could react, the other onlookers had already started laughing.

"Yan Bugui is clearly trying to steal his wife's business."

Being singled out by He Yushui in person immediately caused a burst of laughter from everyone.

The Third Uncle is worthy of being the Third Uncle in the Siheyuan. His face is indeed thicker than the city wall.

Although He Yushui pointed it out to him in person, he remained calm and collected.

Still, he said to He Yushui righteously: "It is common sense for men to get married when they are old enough, and for women to get married when they are old enough. Who can say otherwise about this marriage?"

"I can't tell you. Because I'm a highly respected elementary school teacher, I can't be a matchmaker, right?"

This statement is quite reasonable and no one can find fault with it.

But Wang Gensheng knew that this third uncle was not trying to be a matchmaker, but was really just trying to get a few more meals.

Just like in the TV series, he introduced Teacher Ran from the school to He Yuzhu for a blind date and took advantage of He Yuzhu a lot.

But he also secretly slandered He Yuzhu behind his back.

She has done many things, such as being a whore and pretending to be a virgin.

He actually wanted to trick Wang Gensheng like this now. How could this be so easy? Wang Gensheng decided to teach the third uncle a lesson.

So, he pulled He Yushui beside him to calm her down, and with a friendly smile on his face, he said to the third uncle:

"Uncle, are you here for meat or coal?"

"Is there any explanation for this?"

"If you want to matchmake me, let's sit over there and talk about it."

"You want to eat meat? That's easy. I'll ask He Yushui to go home and get a knife. You can see which piece of meat is thicker. We can roast it or cut it and stew it!" Wang Gensheng said.

The fat on the Third Uncle's face twitched unconsciously.

Originally, he could have sat down and listened to his matchmaking, but he didn't go to Wang Gensheng's house but sat under the wall. What kind of matchmaking was that?

You don't even care about giving him a meal, and you want to get him a wife for free?

"He wants to eat meat, but he actually cuts off his own flesh. This guy is indeed a street thug, he is really cruel. Why didn't I see it before?"

The other people in the courtyard burst into laughter again. Seeing the Third Uncle making a fool of himself in front of them, they were naturally very happy.

A hateful sentence came out from the third uncle's mouth:

"You'll be single for the rest of your life. I don't think a street urchin like you can ever get a wife."

After he finished speaking, the Third Uncle flicked his sleeves and turned away. But behind him came He Yushui's voice: "Third Uncle, you don't have to worry about this."

"The marriage of our family's Gensheng was arranged long ago by the elders of our two families. Your matchmaking this time is like taking off your pants to fart, it's unnecessary!"

He Yushui's words were still more lethal. After she said this, more cheerful laughter was heard in the courtyard.

The third uncle was so angry that he took a few quick steps back to his front yard.

Listening to the laughter in the courtyard, Jia Zhang, who had just had a meal, still felt depressed. Smelling the stewed meat in the air, she was still drooling.

He glanced at Qin Huairu and a plan came to his mind.

"Qin Huairu, your son Jia Banggeng wants to eat meat! I smell the fragrance coming from Wang Gensheng's yard. Go to his house and borrow a bowl of meat."

Qin Huairu looked like she was about to cry. She looked at Jia Zhang with a pitiful and aggrieved look and said, "Mom, aren't you making things difficult for me? You just went there and didn't get the meat back, and now you want me to go again. How can he give it to me?"

Jia Zhang was not in a good mood, and said to Qin Huairu in a very unfriendly tone: "Aren't you a cheater?"

"With your flirtatious appearance, if you rub against Wang Gensheng and let him take advantage of you, you can get the bowl of meat, right? Go quickly, my eldest grandson is still waiting to eat meat."

Having said that, he didn't even give Qin Huairu a chance to argue and pushed her out the door!

Poor Qin Huairu, ever since she married into the Jia family, she has been treated as worthless by Jia Zhangshi, and her husband is dead. How can she still have any dignity and status?
