Siheyuan: I can always stay out of it

night.

Looking at Lin Chan who was juggling the ball, Chen Xu wanted to laugh. The little girl was a little thoughtful after coming back. She looked at the cloth, mumbled something, and now she was juggling the ball by herself.

Seeing Chen Xu coming in, Lin Chan quickly put down her hand, her little face flushed.

Chen Xu sat next to her and took over her juggling actions.

"What are you thinking about?"

Lin Chan was obviously a little embarrassed. What had she just done? Most importantly, she was seen by Chen Xu.

He felt very confused. He didn't feel anything when he was juggling the ball, but when it came to Chen Xu, even his breathing quickened.

"I...I just think it's too big to make clothes."

Lin Chan whispered to Chen Xu about some of her usual difficulties, which were also some of the little woman's little secrets. Chen Xu wanted to laugh when he heard it, but he held it back. The little girl was willing to share some of her little secrets with him, which was a sign of trust.

"Don't think too much about it. I like it."

"I know."

Lin Chan rolled his eyes.

You have to hold me in your arms every time you go to sleep, and won’t let go all night long. Even a fool would know that you like it.

The problem is that it is indeed a little inconvenient sometimes. When going up the mountain, I can only wrap myself with a cloth strip to prevent it from swaying and affecting my balance.

Compared with the sweet love between Chen Xu and Xu Damao, Xu Damao returned to the courtyard early.

I ran to the backyard but didn't find Chen Xu. I guessed that he must have sent Lin Chan home, so Brother Damao had to eat dinner alone.

I felt inexplicably annoyed, after all, today's opportunity was rare.

I was a little impatient and almost got slapped when I held my wife's hand.

Now I'm alone at home, don't even mention how depressed I feel.

However, when he came back, Xu Damao was still very happy to see the envious looks from others. After all, before, others looked at him more like a eunuch, but now he can feel proud of himself.

Sha Zhu was a little dazed when he came back, but when he arrived at the courtyard, he heard even more upsetting news.

It turned out that today not only Chen Xu, but also Xu Damao brought a wife back. After listening to several people discussing this, Sha Zhu realized that Xu Damao's wife was also very beautiful.

This made Shazhu feel more like a clown.

Sha Zhu threw himself on the bed as soon as he got home and didn't want to move at all. Compared with the happiness of others, although he was back and could go to work tomorrow, he still had to continue sweeping the streets when he came back at night. What a point.

The difference between people is sometimes even greater than that between dogs.

The deaf old lady was furious when she saw Sha Zhu coming back pretending to be dead. She said that Sha Zhu was able to come out so early because the deaf old lady had some connections, otherwise, Sha Zhu would not be able to come out so soon for at least half a month.

As a result, when Sha Zhu came out, he looked like this, which made her inexplicably disappointed.

After all, no matter how much you like someone, being disappointed again and again can easily make you have other ideas.

However, the deaf old lady still stepped forward and pulled Shazhu.

"My dear grandson, tell grandma what you have to say..."

"grandmother..."

Sha Zhu felt inexplicably aggrieved. There would be no harm without comparison. He had experienced too much this year, and now he had reached the point where he could hardly bear it anymore.

His sister's crying, his mortal enemy's complacency, his own tragedy, all these things added up, Sha Zhu was already considered to be generous for not having the thought of committing suicide.

The deaf old lady listened to Sha Zhu crying and talking about all the dissatisfaction in his heart, and she also felt a little sorry for Sha Zhu. She really liked Sha Zhu as her godson, but there was really no way she could change Sha Zhu's current situation.

"Live well, there will always be a day when you can succeed..."

This is the only way the deaf old lady can comfort Sha Zhu.

Yi Zhonghai was also very depressed. This old guy now shared the same fate with Sha Zhu. They were classmates in the street office during the day and both were receiving education.

However, Yi Zhonghai is still hanging on by one claw, so the subdistrict office will not be reduced to the point of asking disabled people to sweep the streets.

When the two met, Yi Zhonghai wanted to say a few words to Sha Zhu, but Sha Zhu didn't want to pay any attention to Yi Zhonghai at all.

If the deaf old lady hadn't insisted on dragging him to the Yi family to celebrate the New Year, he would have been too lazy to go.

He Daqing also told him about the grudge between him and Yi Zhonghai, and that most of his actions over the years were instigated by Yi Zhonghai. Looking back, Sha Zhu also felt that this made sense.

These people have a common problem, which is that they like to find reasons to shift their own mistakes onto others.

Although Yi Zhonghai did have the intention to instigate Sha Zhu, how could Sha Zhu dare to say that he had no problem? He was usually very happy when he beat Xu Damao, and he never considered that there was anything wrong.

No matter what, these did not prevent Sha Zhu from putting the blame on Yi Zhonghai, thinking that it was Yi Zhonghai's fault that he was in such a miserable state now.

With this idea in mind, Sha Zhu was already restrained enough to not beat Yi Zhonghai directly.

Yi Zhonghai came back early, but he was in a very low mood.

I was more afraid that if my hand could not be restored, my life would be over.

He was able to make promises to Jia Dongxu nonchalantly even when he had lost everything, all thanks to his locksmith skills. If those skills were gone, he himself didn't believe that Jia Dongxu would still treat him the same way as before.

Compared with my own affairs, other things in the hospital seem unimportant.

No matter who gets married or your lover is sent back to his hometown, those are just trivial matters and are not worth mentioning compared with the rest of your life.

His goal now is to continue to stabilize Jia Dongxu, and to take good care of his hand, trying not to leave any sequelae. He does not seek to make further progress, but at least he has to maintain the current level.

Jia family.

Jia Dongxu also tossed and turned and couldn't sleep.

Compared to usual times, the Jia family had a harder time this year.

My mother's departure did make the family life better, but the times are bad now, and it is difficult to rely on the master for help. Yi Zhonghai can hardly protect himself now, and has no ability to help the Jia family anymore.

The family's already limited food needs to be given to his mother in the countryside every month, and the rest has to be used to feed his wife and children. This year the ration has been reduced, which makes the situation even worse. The problem of food alone has almost turned Jia Dongxu's hair white.

Jia Dongxu made some small noise and woke up Qin Huairu who was already asleep. She held her husband's hand. She also knew Jia Dongxu's difficulties, but unfortunately, as an ordinary woman, what could she do?

The polarization of Siheyuan is actually very serious.

Families like the Liu and Yan families who have a certain amount of money live better than most of the residents.

For example, if only one person in the family has a ration of food, they are basically struggling to make ends meet. The famine in the past two years has already exhausted most of the family savings, and the rest can only survive by hanging on.

This is not just the case with siheyuans, it's almost the same across the country, and the Jia family's situation is just a small microcosm of this era.
