Siheyuan: I am Jia Dongxu's cousin

Inside the hospital.

He Yushui saw Sha Zhu who had just woken up and said happily, "Sha Ge, you're awake?"

Sha Zhu looked at the decorations around the ward and asked in confusion: "Yu Shui, where am I?"

"Cough cough..."

"Brother Sha, drink some water first." Seeing that Sha Zhu was still coughing with difficulty, He Yushui quickly poured him a glass of water.

Then he explained, "Silly brother, when I got home today, I found you fainted. I was so worried."

"Thanks to Brother Weiguo for sending you to the hospital, otherwise I don't know what to do." He Yushui began to cry as she spoke.

Zhang Weiguo, who had just entered the room, saw He Yushui crying beside Shazhu's bed and said jokingly:

"Hey, Silly Zhu, look at your brother. As soon as you woke up, you made Yu Shui cry."

"I……"

Sha Zhu was speechless after hearing what Zhang Weiguo said. How could he blame me for this?

"Brother Weiguo, you are so annoying. You only know how to laugh at others." He Yushui wiped away her tears quickly when she heard Zhang Weiguo's teasing.

"Okay, you two should come and have something to eat!"

Zhang Weiguo put the breakfast he had just bought on the table and said:

"Silly Zhu, this time it's thanks to Yu Shui that he notified me in time, otherwise you would really be burned to death."

"Also, you should not go to work these few days. Take good care of yourself. I will ask for leave from the steel mill for you."

"Thank you, Weiguo." Sha Zhu said gratefully.

"Silly brother, I'm still here. I've taken care of you all night." He Yushui said coquettishly.

"Okay, thank you my dear sister."

"Hmph, that's more like it."

"Yushui, you stay here and take care of your brother. I'm going to work first."

"By the way, I've already paid the medical bills, so don't worry. And here's the 5 yuan, I'll buy you and me some food at noon."

"Thank you, Brother Weiguo." He Yushui took the 5 yuan handed over by Zhang Weiguo and said with a sob.

In He Yushui's impression, the last person who cared so much about whether she had food to eat was her father He Daqing.

And his silly brother is a carefree person. Although he was not sucked dry by Qin Huairu because of Zhang Weiguo's arrival, he doesn't care about other aspects of himself at all.

"What's the big deal? After all, you call me Brother Weiguo." Zhang Weiguo touched He Yushui's hair and turned away.

Sha Zhu looked at Zhang Weiguo's background and felt that his friendship was not in vain.

Whispered: "Wei Guo is really righteous."

"Humph, that's good if you know."

Hearing He Yushui's tone, Sha Zhu said with some jealousy: "Hey, who is your real brother?"

In the afternoon, Zhang Weiguo had just returned home from get off work.

Yu Shui came over with 7 yuan.

"Brother Weiguo, this is the medical expenses you helped to advance last night and the money you gave me this morning."

"Okay, I'll take it."

"By the way, how is your brother now?" Zhang Weiguo asked.

"I've returned from the hospital."

"Ah That's good."

Not long after He Yushui left, Zhang Weiguo, who was washing his bicycle in the yard, heard a quarrel coming from the third uncle's house.

Then I saw the third uncle's house.

Everyone was sitting at the dinner table. The third uncle took out an abacus and clacked for a while before saying, "Xie Cheng, you and Yu Li have received your salary this month. When are you going to pay it?"

Yan Jiecheng glanced at Yu Li awkwardly, with a hint in his eyes of, "Wife, don't say anything, save some face for me."

"Dad, isn't this what I was planning to give you tonight?"

After Yan Jiecheng finished speaking, he took out 25 yuan from his pocket and handed it to the third uncle.

The third uncle counted the money and said, "Yes, that's right."

"Jie Cheng, you have been working for a while. Dad has something to tell you now."

"Dad, you talk, I'm listening."

"You know, as the saying goes, 'Raise a son to provide for your old age.' You are the eldest son in the family, and you have been working for a while now. It is time for you to provide pension for me and your mother."

Just as Yu Li was about to finish her words, Yan Jiecheng pulled her under the table and said, "No, Dad, aren't you going too far? You and my mom are not that old, why are you thinking about retirement money?"

"You can't say that." The third uncle retorted, "Look at Zhang Weiguo across from our house. He gives your parents 30 yuan a month. Dad knows that your monthly salary is not much, so how about this, you give me and your mother 2 yuan each every month."

In fact, the reason why the third uncle mentioned this matter to Yan Jiecheng today was because Zhang's mother accidentally let it slip when she was chatting with the third aunt in the yard today.

As soon as the third aunt talked to the third uncle, there came a scene where the third uncle asked for pension money.

"Dad, how can I compare with Zhang Weiguo? How much does he make a month and how much do I make?" Yan Jiecheng tried to argue with his father.

But the third uncle said firmly: "This is it. When Jiefang, Jiekuang and Jiedian start to make money in the future, they will also follow this."

Seeing that her husband was about to be persuaded by her father-in-law, Yu Li immediately stopped and said loudly:

"Dad, you're going too far. I made a settlement and gave you most of my monthly earnings, and now you want the remaining 5 yuan a month."

At this moment, Yu Li really felt that the Yan family was a big trap, and her father-in-law was too cunning to calculate.

The monthly salary of himself and Yan Jiecheng is only 30 yuan. In addition to paying 15 yuan for food every month, they also have to pay back 10 yuan to the old man for the 400 yuan house purchase.

Yu Li could tolerate this, but her father-in-law now even wanted the last 5 yuan they had.

"Yu Li, you can't say that. Let's be clear about one thing. Dad, I didn't ask for more money from you. It's only natural for children to give money to their parents for their retirement."

Seeing that she couldn't win the argument with the uncle and her husband didn't say anything, Yu Li immediately put down her chopsticks and said, "I'm full."

Just get up and leave.

"Jiecheng, look at your wife, you have to take more care of her. You can't let a woman ride on your head." The third uncle said to Yu Li and Yan Jiecheng as they were leaving.

Yan Jiecheng was also speechless. He quickly finished his meal, stood up and left.

As soon as Yu Li went out, she saw Zhang Weiguo across the yard. Looking at the handsome Zhang Weiguo in the distance, she thought of his salary, his parents, and his wife who stayed at home watching TV all day.

The more Yu Li felt that her husband was useless, the more she disliked her father-in-law.

Yan Jiecheng, who followed him back to the back house, persuaded Li: "Wife, don't be angry. You know my father's temper. Don't bother with him."

It would have been fine if Yan Jiecheng didn't say anything, but as soon as he opened his mouth, Yu Li got angry again and shouted, "Yan Jiecheng, we only have 5 yuan left a month, and if we give your parents 4 yuan, how can we make ends meet?"

"I'm telling you, if you can't give me an explanation today, I'm going back to my parents' home right now."

"No, wife, I...I..."

Yan Jieben had a soft temper to begin with, and now he was caught between his parents and his wife, and he didn't know how to deal with it.
