Siheyuan Back to the 1950s

In the afternoon, in the Sun family courtyard, the grandfather was watching TV with his two great-grandsons.

Grandma, Ning Xiaowei and Zhou Weihua were all busy in the kitchen preparing the New Year's Eve dinner.

At the same time, Sun Zhengguo was not idle either. He was writing Spring Festival couplets for his family in the house.

Sun Zhengnan was waiting on the side and was also responsible for professional flattery.

"Brother, this calligraphy is so good. Even if you let me practice for another hundred years, I still can't write like this. This should be what people often say about flying dragons and snakes, iron trees and silver hooks, right?"

"It's like flying dragons and dancing phoenixes, writing with the power of a dragon and a snake, iron painting and silver hooks. You kid should learn from it and stop using idioms randomly."

Sun Zhengguo didn't even raise his head at this time, he was correcting his cousin's mistakes while writing.

"Yes, yes, you are right, brother. You are worthy of being a college student. My little education is not enough." Sun Zhengnan said with a smile.

In fact, it was because Sun Zhengguo didn't look up. If he had looked up, he would have noticed a sly smile on his cousin's face.

Is it true that Sun Zhengnan doesn’t know how to use these idioms?

No, no, no, this is a new trick he learned. If he can do everything, why does he need a leader?

After a while, Sun Zhengguo finished writing the Spring Festival couplets. The two brothers took bowls of paste, came outside the courtyard gate, and started posting the couplets.

"Zhengnan, please help me check if it's not pasted crookedly?"

"Brother, move the lower corner a little to the left, ... hey hey! That's it."

……

Just as the two brothers were busy having fun, a group of people were walking towards them not far away.

When Sun Zhengguo saw the person coming, he stopped and walked forward with a smile.

"Mom and Dad, Uncle and Aunt, are you done with the housework?"

"You can come over when you're not done. Do you want us to help you?"

Sun Dajiang and several other men stopped, while Lin Wencui led the women's army into the yard, ready to help in the kitchen.

It turned out that this year the Sun family was preparing to get together to celebrate the New Year, so everyone came together after finishing their housework.

"No need, Dad, Second Uncle, you guys go in and watch TV too! I'll be there in a minute, don't we have Zhengnan?"

"Okay then, we won't make things more complicated. Just take your time."

Since his son had said so, Sun Dajiang didn't hesitate and took the remaining few people with him and walked into the yard.

……

at the same time.

The neighbors in the courtyard are all busy, some are putting up Spring Festival couplets, some are frying meatballs, and some are slaughtering chickens and fish... It's a strong atmosphere of the Chinese New Year.

At the same time, the aroma coming from the kitchen made the children very greedy. They hurriedly followed behind to ask for some, making it very lively.

However, on this festive day, the Jia family in the central courtyard seemed a little deserted.

It turned out that the street office was quite humane. Seeing the New Year approaching, they suspended Qin Huairu's transformation and gave her three days off.

Ask her to report to the street office again on the fourth day of the New Year.

It was a good thing that the family was reunited, but the bad thing was that Qin Huairu was not released until noon today.

By the time she took the money and went to buy New Year's goods, the day lilies were already cold.

In the end, there was no need to think about fish or meat, she could only barely buy some cabbage, tofu and other things.

Seeing these things, Qin Huairu had no choice but to grit her teeth, take out the only remaining white flour in the house, and prepare some vegetarian dumplings, which could be considered an improvement in the food!

But even so, Banggeng would not be satisfied and would continue to make trouble at home.

"Mom, what can you do? It's New Year's Day, other families are having a feast, but you're giving us this?

Besides, tomorrow is the first day of the Chinese New Year, where are my new clothes? You can’t let me go out and wander around in this one!”

Seeing her son's look of disgust, Qin Huairu felt extremely bitter.

If I had known that this would be the outcome, I should not have boarded Yi Zhonghai's shabby ship.

I thought that I was not unable to make ends meet at the time, with a few hundred dollars in pension, plus child support, subsidies, and wages.

The conditions are not bad, why do we live like this?

"Oh~!" Thinking of this, Qin Huairu sighed.

"Bang Geng, stop making trouble. This year's New Year's Day is a little special. I will make it up to you later. Can I buy you a small whip tomorrow?"

"No, I want to eat meat, I want new clothes, your situation is special, what does it have to do with me, did I ask you to have an affair?"

"What did you say?"

Qin Huairu widened her eyes in disbelief. Her son's words deeply hurt her heart.

Why did she work so hard? It was for her son.

But now the person who hurt her the most is also this son.

For a moment, she found it hard to accept.

"You don't understand! Let me say it again. Did I ask you to have an affair?"

Bang Geng was still unscrupulous. He met Qin Huairu's gaze and stabbed her again.

"Crack~!"

A loud slap in the face frightened Xiaodang and Huaihua.

As far as I can remember, this was the first time I saw my mother slap my brother in the face.

You know, Banggeng's status in the family is always ranked first, and no one can compare to him.

At this time, Bang Geng was covering his face and looking at Qin Huairu with a resentful look.

"I'm sorry, Bang Geng, I didn't mean it. It must hurt. I'll rub it for you."

Qin Huairu reacted and hurried to make amends.

But Bang Geng didn't appreciate it at all. Instead, he stood up and shouted angrily.

"Get lost! I don't have a mother like you, you are a slut."

After saying this, Banggeng ran out of the house and disappeared without a trace in an instant.

By the time Qin Huairu reacted and tried to catch up with her son, he was nowhere to be found.

Seeing that she couldn't find Banggeng, Qin Huairu was helpless. She thought to herself that he would come back naturally when it got dark and he was hungry.

But what Qin Huairu didn't know was that once Banggeng left this time, she would regret it for the rest of her life.

……

It is said that after Banggeng ran away from home, he had no money and didn't know where to go, so he had to walk aimlessly...

Slowly, without realizing it, he walked to the vicinity of Doujiao Hutong.

If he remembered correctly, his sworn brother, Iron Monkey, seemed to live nearby.

"Yes! Go to the old man's house for a free meal, then live there and make that bitch regret it."

With this thought in mind, Banggeng went into Doujiao Hutong without hesitation to ask someone about Tiehouzi.

Speaking of Iron Monkey, his full name is Tie San. He is considered a celebrity in Doujiao Hutong. He has no parents and lives alone in a small shack.

In terms of living, he relied entirely on relief from the street office, as well as picking up scraps and collecting protection fees from the school to make a living.

So, Banggeng could easily find his house by asking people.

However, when he arrived at the door of Iron Monkey, he hesitated again, not knowing whether he should go in or not?

Because Iron Monkey's family was so poor, their house was almost leaking everywhere.

In such an environment, can you take me in?

This is the problem that Banggeng needs to face now.
