Siheyuan: I stand for Xu Damao because he is my brother

After three months of adjustment, Liu Dan became pregnant.

The following year, she successfully gave birth to twins, both boys.

Qin Hu said that he was uneducated and was afraid that he could not come up with a good name, so he asked Xu Dacan to help him choose a name.

Xu Dacan read Shuowenjiezi over and over again, and finally found two names: Tan Yuxuan and Tan Yucheng.

"宇" means vast and boundless, just like the universe that encompasses everything.

"Xuan" means extraordinary temperament and lofty ambition, walking with head held high;

"Cheng" means clear and pure. We hope our children's hearts will be as pure as water and their character will be noble.

As the children's godfather, Xu Dacan made three longevity locks with gold and gave them to Yuxuan, Yucheng, and Niu Niu respectively.

Some people may say, Li Huaide has stepped down and Xu Dacan has been sidelined, so where does he get the money?

Please, if he could live a poor life as long as he had space, Xu Dacan would just go and kill himself by tofuing Liu Yueru!

Not only was he not poor, Xu Dacan also bought a TV!

It was a 9-inch all-transistor black-and-white TV made by Kaige brand. It could receive 12 channels in total, and could receive TV signals to watch programs, and also had radio functions to listen to the radio. The 4D4-A 9-inch TV and radio dual-purpose machine cost 296 yuan! Xu Dacan bought it right away without even blinking an eye.

The day he brought the TV back, it caused a sensation in the courtyard.

Those who were close to him came to his house to see what was going on with the TV; even Yi Zhonghai and Aunt Yi came.

Li Xianying couldn't let go of the TV. "Not only can I watch TV programs on this thing, but I can also listen to storytelling. I love "Three Heroes and Swordsmen" so much! This thing is really great, and it's the first one in our hospital!"

Outside Xu Dacan's house, Yan Bugui, who had been wandering nearby, heard this voice and suddenly felt as if something was missing...

But he couldn't explain it. He just listened to the sound of the TV and enjoyed it.

Given their family conditions, except for Yan Jiedi who married herself off early, Yan Jiefang and Yan Jiekuang are not married yet.

Like Banggeng, Yan Jiefang went to work in the countryside at the end of 72 and returned half a year earlier than Banggeng.

Now, he and his younger brother Yan Jiekuang are both unable to find jobs and are living off the little savings left by Yan Bugui at home.

At the side of the corridor, Liu Guangtian and his brother Liu Guangfu were also standing here.

Liu Guangtian was almost frustrated to death: "Why? I am confused. It was fine that the elder Xu and the second Xu were so powerful before! But what is the situation now? Why haven't they been liquidated yet?"

He had one leg broken that year. Although it wasn't Xu Dacan who did it himself, he ordered someone to do it!

Liu Guangtian has this lame leg and can't even find a partner. Which girl would be interested in him?

Liu Guangfu's eyes were also red. He was the first to betray, and he escaped physical pain by betraying his father and his second brother.

As a result, because of this, Liu Haizhong completely hated him!

They said he was a heartless man, a traitor, and that he would become a traitor if he tried to live a good life!

Liu Guangfu defended himself by saying, "There is an old Chinese saying that a man who knows the current affairs is a hero."

What a pity that his father Liu Haizhong refused to listen to his explanation and from now on regarded him as a thorn in his side;

The second aunt who had been partial to him before had no opinion of her own. She just did whatever Liu Haizhong did and always followed his lead.

Liu Guangfu not only suffered from cold violence and PUA from his parents, but also was cruelly sent to work in the countryside by Liu Haizhong in early 73.

After returning to the city this year, he was still not treated well by Liu Haizhong and his wife, and he was full of resentment but had no place to vent it.

"..."

That night, Xu Dacan was staring at the TV, but his thoughts had already flown to 40 years later.

When he was watching this drama, he just couldn't understand why, when the plot reached this point, Xu Damao became a rat crossing the street, and no one in the yard spoke to him except Qin Huairu.

On the contrary, this bastard Liu Haizhong can coexist peacefully with them?

What does that mean? Only Xu Damao bullied people, but Liu Haizhong didn’t, right? Only Xu Damao led people to raid homes, but that old bastard Liu Haizhong didn’t lead people to raid homes, right?

Moreover, Xu Damao has bullied so many people, but he has never bullied the people in this yard!

He even paid out of his own pocket, spending 20 yuan, that's 20! He saved Shazhu from the water and fire for eight years!

But what about Liu Haizhong? If Xu Dacan remembered correctly, he got to power by betraying his co-workers. He was the first to bring down Sha Zhu in the workshop, and the first to bring down Yi Zhonghai in the yard...

The crimes he committed are too numerous to list, and his two sons are robbing houses and abducting women. How come nothing happens to them?

Now, Xu Dacan figured it out.

Look at the people in this house today (especially the day when I bought the TV), it’s so crowded that there’s almost no place to step. Then look at these enthusiastic neighbors, who is popular and who is not, isn’t it obvious at a glance?

"..."

At Jia's house, Xiao Huaihua disappeared as soon as Qin Huairu turned around.

Just when she was about to curse, the curtain was lifted and Huaihua came into the room again.

Seeing Xiaodang still sitting there, she got anxious and said, "Sister, what's wrong with you? The TV show is about to start! Today they're showing Taking Tiger Mountain by Strategy. If you go too late there won't be any seats left!"

The young official glanced at Qin Huairu awkwardly and did not dare to answer.

Sure enough, Qin Huairu yelled the next second: "Don't go! What good can you learn from Xu Damao and Xu Dacan?"

But Huaihua ignored her and turned away.

She was the old girl in the family, with her grandmother taking care of her and her sister loving her. During the three years when Banggeng went to the countryside, she felt like she was in a honey pot, she was so happy!

What a pity, he is back. Why did he come back?

When Huaihua went out, he happened to meet Banggeng. He walked with his head down and always had a deadpan look on his face. He always looked at people with the inner corners of his eyes, commonly known as cross-eyed.

Just seeing it is enough!

Huaihua saw him and pretended not to see him, but Banggeng was blind and asked her, "Where are you going?"

Huaihua didn't look happy with him: "What's it to you!" After saying that, she took two quick steps and went to the backyard.

Banggeng looked at Huaihua's back with sinister eyes. Just as he was about to enter the house, he heard his grandmother and his mother discussing: "What do you think we should do tonight? The sisters are all grown up, and the weather is hot. We can't let Banggeng squeeze in with the sisters like he did when he was a child, right?"

And then, there was no further talk, and Qin Huairu remained silent.

Bang Geng found out today when he came back that her mother and her grandmother were getting more and more at odds with each other. Jia Zhang tried to talk to her nicely, but her mother was just like Sophora japonica just now, ignoring her.

Just when Bang Geng thought her mother was pretending to be deaf and dumb again, Qin Huairu spoke up: "You're asking me?"
