Siheyuan: Being a fisherman in 1962

"Sister Qin Huairu, I'm here to apologize to you." Yan Bugui's voice was sincere. "Jie Cheng was a child who didn't know any better and caused such a big mess. I want to apologize to you and Chen Fei on his behalf. How about this? I'll compensate you with two kilograms of flour as a token of our appreciation."

Hearing this, Qin Huairu looked at Yan Bugui with complicated eyes, and finally nodded.

In this era, two kilograms of flour was not a small amount of money. It was not easy for Yan Bugui to show such sincerity.

Jia Zhang, Qin Huairu's mother-in-law, agreed directly. After all, the benefits of getting white flour were obvious.

"Okay, let's forget about it this time, but you have to take good care of the children in the future and don't let this happen again." There was a hint of warning in Qin Huairu's tone, but more of it was helplessness and compromise.

Yan Bugui nodded repeatedly, secretly thanking his lucky stars that the incident had finally come to a relatively decent end.

However, he knew very well that the real crisis was far from over.

As Yan Jiecheng watched his father leaving, he realized that he had not only lost Yu Li's heart, but also left an indelible stain among his neighbors.

Chen Fei stood in front of his house, looking at all this. Although he felt unfair, he also felt the complexity and helplessness of human nature.

However, beneath this seemingly calm surface, a storm of misunderstanding, courage and love is quietly brewing.

Yan Jiecheng stood in front of his house, his brows furrowed, his eyes full of grievance and confusion.

He tried to explain the unwarranted misunderstanding last night to Yu Li, who had just returned from outside, but before he could finish his words, he was interrupted by Yu Li's angry rebuke:

"Yan Jiecheng, stop pretending! I've seen all your disgusting behavior. You're just a pervert!"

Yan Jiecheng's face turned pale instantly. He never expected that his kindness would be misinterpreted in this way.

He wanted to explain himself desperately, but found that all his words seemed pale and powerless.

Just as he was about to speak again, a figure suddenly stood in front of him - it was Fade Chen.

Chen Fei, a well-known "young man" in the alley, usually doesn't cause trouble, but once someone bullies him, he will never back down.

Today, he stood between Yan Jiecheng and Yu Li with an unprecedented firmness.

"Yu Li, you misunderstood. Yan Jiecheng is not that kind of person. Also, from today on, I want to tell you something." Chen Fei's voice was not loud, but it was extremely clear, attracting the attention of the people around him.

He took a deep breath and looked directly at Yu Li, as if he wanted to pour all his heart into her:

"Yu Li, I have liked you for a long time. From today on, you are my girlfriend, and no one is allowed to be rude to you anymore."

As soon as these words were spoken, there was a sudden silence all around, and everyone was shocked by this sudden confession.

Yu Li was stunned where she stood. She had never thought that Chen Fei, who usually seemed carefree, would take relationships so seriously.

When Yan Jiecheng saw this, he felt mixed emotions, both relieved and relieved.

He stepped aside silently, choosing to believe that Fade Chen could handle it all.

And after a brief moment of shock, Yu Li's eyes gradually softened.

Looking at Chen Fei carefully, those eyes full of sincerity and determination made her feel unprecedented peace of mind.

"Fade Chen, I..." She hesitated for a second before finally letting out a smile. "I am willing to give you a chance, and also give myself a chance."

At this moment, the two people's hearts were closely connected, as if everything around them had lost its color, leaving only them each other.

The residents cast surprised and blessing glances at them. This sudden love was like a breeze in the summer, refreshing and happy.

However, the good times did not last long. Yu Haitang on the side suddenly spoke, breaking the silence.

"Silly Zhu, you have always been dissatisfied with Chen Fei. Was it you who was behind this incident?" There was a hint of doubt in her words, which also revealed another possible conspiracy.

Sha Zhu, another restless character in the alley, had a slightly changed expression and his eyes flickered.

He wanted to make a few excuses, but when he saw everyone's scrutinizing eyes, he finally chose to remain silent, turned around and left in a hurry.

This scene undoubtedly made everyone more convinced that the source of the rumors was most likely him.

With Sha Zhu's escape, the storm seemed to have come to a temporary end.

But the relationship between Chen Fei and Yu Li became stronger because of this.

......

Recently, the news about the breakup between Yan Jiecheng, the eldest son of the Yan family, and his fiancée Yu Li, spread like catkins in the spring breeze, and quickly became a topic of conversation among neighbors after dinner.

"Have you heard? Yan Jiecheng, somehow his marriage fell through." Aunt Zhang said mysteriously to Aunt Li while picking vegetables.

"That's right. It's because of his stinginess that he haggled with others over the bride price and drove a good girl away." Aunt Li curled her lips with a look of disdain.

"If you ask me, Yu Li would really enjoy life if she married Chen Fei from our alley." Uncle Wang said slowly, waving his fan.

As soon as these words came out, everyone nodded, their eyes flashing with approval for Fade Chen.

Chen Fei is a young talent who has become famous in the city of Beijing through his own efforts. He not only has superb skills, but also has a kind heart. He is recognized as a good young man.

Yu Li stood on the threshold of her house and unconsciously caught these discussions.

A satisfied smile appeared on her lips, and she was secretly glad of her choice.

Yes, she did break up with Yan Jie, and all this was not entirely because of the bride price.

Yan Jiecheng's abnormal behaviors were like thorns that pierced deeply into her heart, forcing her to make a decision.

In the evening, Chen Fei rode a bicycle with the smiling Yu Li on the back seat and slowly drove into the old street of the old city.

Yu Li's sister Yu Haitang followed behind, her face full of longing for her sister's happy future. The three of them attracted many envious glances.

Inside the Yan family courtyard, Yan Bugui sat on the doorstep with a furrowed brow and eyes full of regret.

He never expected that his momentary greed would ruin his son's marriage and make the Yan family lose face among the neighbors.

He looked up at the sky, feeling mixed emotions, and muttered to himself: "Jie Cheng, Dad has hurt you..."

Yan Jiecheng was hiding in a corner of the room at this moment, holding a photo with Yu Li tightly in his hand. His eyes were empty, as if they had lost all color.

I can't accept this fact, let alone forgive myself.

But in this despair, a sinister thought quietly grew - he wanted to take back everything he had lost, even if it meant Chen Fei had to pay a price.

Late at night, Yan Jiecheng sat alone in front of the window. The moonlight shone on his face, reflecting a look of determination.

He began to plan how to take revenge on Chen Fei and how to win back Yu Li's heart.

This road is destined to be full of thorns, but he has no way to retreat and can only move forward.
