Siheyuan: Banggeng and I are classmates

Li Muhua walked into the middle courtyard and turned to look to the left.

The Jia family's house was still the same as when he left. There was a black pot supported by a few broken bricks at the door, the windows were covered with newspapers, there was a big hole in the roof, and the door was leaning against an angle.

It looked so miserable and dilapidated that it didn't even look like a habitable place.

It would have been even more miserable if we had gone inside. All the usable things had been dragged away, and the kang that couldn't be dragged away had been smashed to pieces.

Now I just picked up some rags and worn-out jackets thrown away by other people and piled them in the corner, then slept in them.

Seeing the Jia family end up like this, Li Muhua was not happy as he had expected. Instead, he was depressed. This was the tragedy of the times, and he could not escape it!

Many aunts were surprised to see Li Muhua coming back. They came up to greet her and asked about Yicheng and other matters.

Li Muhua answered everyone's questions with a smile and was finally discharged from the hospital after a long time.

As for the Lord of Morality, Yi Zhonghai, whom Li Muhua had not met, the old couple now act like good old people and are polite to everyone.

I heard that last year Yi Zhonghai had one of his disciples come to spend the New Year with them.

It seems that he feels that the neighbors in the courtyard are unreliable, and he can't find another "Shazhu" and "Qin Huairu", so he wants to rely on the brotherhood of master and apprentice to support him in his old age.

Liu Haizhong didn't have the chance to report the Lou family, so he remained the seventh-level fitter, and his life was much more peaceful than in the TV series.

When the Lou family absconded, Xu Damao quickly divorced Lou Xiaoe after he came out of the police station, and had to get the marriage certificate under Qin Jingru's pestering.

After Qin Huairu's accident, Qin Jingru no longer had any support in the city. Instead, she was despised by the neighbors. She hadn't laid eggs for a long time, and Xu Damao couldn't stand her anymore.

I can only be a punching bag at home, and my life is full of blood and tears.

With his mind full of thoughts, Li Muhua walked in a daze. When he looked up, he saw Hongxing Primary School in front of him.

Thinking that he should not have come here and thinking about Xu Ming, Li Muhua turned and left.

It's evening time -

"Brother, you're back!"

Li Yujie had messy bangs and she pushed the door open and shouted.

Li Muhua said unhappily: "Sister, can you knock before you enter?"

Li Yujie didn't answer, but rushed to Li Muhua and said distressedly: "You have lost weight and become darker!"

Li Muhua said, "Okay, okay, sister, what you said is the same as what our mother said this afternoon."

"It's true! I haven't seen my gentle and kind sister for just a few months, and now she's been replaced by an old woman!"

Li Yujie finally smiled and said, "What nonsense are you talking about? You are an old woman!"

Li Muhua asked again: "Will they come back this year?"

"My eldest brother is in the military corps and he didn't take leave this year, but my second brother said he wanted to come back—" Li Yujie looked embarrassed.

Li Muhua asked: "What happened when he said he was back?"

Li Yujie frowned and replied, "He said he wanted to bring someone back, and she's not even an educated youth!"

"what?"

Li Muhua stood up and asked in disbelief, "Is his partner a rural hukou?"

Li Yujie nodded.

"Then you let him come back without trying to persuade him?"

"There's no way to persuade him. The letter arrived yesterday. He's on the train now and will be home tomorrow!"

"He rebelled against me and learned to act first and report later, right?" Li Muhua yelled.

He would have forgiven it if Li Aihua had brought a girlfriend back, but it was Li Qinghua. He didn't expect Li Qinghua to be able to get into university, so how would he go back to the city then?

When Li Qinghua's brain was thought again, Li Muhua suspected that he had revealed his family background and was set up.

Seeing that Li Muhua was as anxious as an ant on a hot pot after hearing the news, Li Yujie said, "In fact, if you ask me, it's not a big deal to find a partner in the countryside. It's not like you will live with her in the future. Why are you so anxious?"

"I'm in a hurry?"

Li Muhua pointed at herself and said, "I'm afraid you will be more anxious than I am now."

Then he asked anxiously, "Forget about that for now. Tell me about his girlfriend's family situation first. She's not a widow, right?"

After seeing Qin Huairu's methods and thinking that his second brother was also a bit like Shazhu, Li Muhua couldn't help but worry.

"What are you talking about? What widow?"

Li Yujie said unhappily, "Your second brother's girlfriend is a serious girl."

"That's good, that's good!" Li Muhua patted his chest and explained, "I saw that my second brother was also stupid, just like Sha Zhu, and I was scared!"

"Pooh!"

Li Yujie spat and cursed, "Is he that stupid? I'll talk to him when he comes back and see how he deals with you!"

"tidy?"

Li Muhua puffed out his chest and said, "Just wait and see! It's good enough that I don't punish him, but you want to punish me, ugh!"

Thinking that Li Qinghua's matter had already been settled, Li Muhua could only ask again: "Where are your dad and mom? Why didn't they come back with you?"

"Their leaders get off work late, and I'm a temporary worker, so I can sneak out early!" Li Yujie smiled, and the room suddenly became bright.

Li Muhua nodded, lay back on the bed, stretched and said, "Home is still the best, with the heating, the big comfortable bed, the yard, the white walls and black roof..."

Seeing Li Muhua so comfortable, he secretly thought that his little brother had suffered a lot in the past six months.

Li Yujie asked distressedly: "Can you tell me about your educated youth camp? Every time you send a letter back, it's like this-"

"No, I said yes, but we have to wait until our parents come back to talk about it. I don't want to say the same thing several times!" Li Muhua interrupted.

……

Time came to dinner time——

The four of them just gathered in the kitchen, and Li Muhua, like a storyteller, recounted in detail all the hardships he had experienced in the past few months.

As soon as he sat down, Li Muhua quickly picked up the pickled cabbage and pork. Before he put it in his mouth, he praised it loudly: "This is the taste of home. You don't know, if I hadn't cooked for them at the educated youth camp, I think they would have starved to death-"

"Come on, stop bragging!" Xu Yan said with a smile, "Wait until after the New Year to see them. I guarantee that nothing will happen to them."

"Without Zhang the butcher, we can still avoid eating mixed-hair pigs." Li Haifu also said the same.

Seeing that they were all belittling themselves, Li Muhua rolled his eyes and said bluntly: "Alright, alright, stop talking about me. I am an old man in the family, what can I say?"

"Our second brother will be back with his wife tomorrow. They are new people! How are we going to accommodate them?"

"And do we need to lay a red carpet at home, put up wedding characters, and buy a few firecrackers?"

Li Muhua kept talking, and Xu Yan's smiling face immediately fell. Li Haifu saw this and shouted, "Even the food can't stop your mouth. If you can't talk, just eat your food!"

Seeing that the two were unhappy, Li Muhua felt secretly extremely happy.

With her face turning red for a moment, Xu Yan said, "I'll ask Yujie for leave tomorrow, and you two can go to the train station to pick her up. The mall is busy at the end of the year, and it's the Spring Festival, so your dad and I can't leave!"

"Oh!"

Li Muhua raised her eyebrows and nodded, then asked with a playful smile: "Then where should I take them? Should I go to the mall to meet my parents-in-law first?"

"Snapped!"

Li Haifu slammed the table and yelled, "You little bastard, you just came back today and you're forcing me to deal with you, right?"

Seeing that he was really angry, Li Muhua shrugged and said submissively, "Bring him back. Let's just bring him back and hide him, okay?"

"Eat!" said Li Haifu.

The atmosphere at the dinner table suddenly turned cold.

Li Muhua ate the rice carefully, thinking to himself:

"My dear second brother and second sister-in-law whom I have never met, I have tried my best to let our parents vent their anger in advance. If you still can't get over it, you can't blame me!"

He actually has no prejudice in his heart, but for this era, the prejudice against urban and rural integration is like a mountain that everyone will look down on.
