Siheyuan: Get the system at the beginning

"Rainwater! Dad is back."

He Daqing did not go to the main house, but directly pushed open the door of his daughter's room. He did not expect that there was nothing else in his daughter's room except a bed, a table and two stools. He felt mixed emotions. Looking at his daughter's shocked face, he could not help but say what he had been thinking about saying to his daughter when he first saw her.

"You, Dad? You are my dad, why did you come back just now?"

There was no telling how much grievance was contained in this word "Dad". He Yushui's tears fell like crazy, and each cry became more and more aggrieved. In the end, she couldn't even utter a complete sentence. Her whimpering sounded like the howling of an unwanted cub.

"It's Daddy's fault, Yu Shui. Daddy is sorry for you! Don't worry, Daddy is back and he won't leave this time."

He Yushui threw herself into the man's arms, crying sadly with a hint of despair, and didn't hear clearly what the other person was saying at all.

After a long time, the father and daughter who hadn't seen each other for a long time finally calmed down.

"My daughter has grown up. I have let you down all these years. Don't worry, I will never let you suffer any injustice again."

This one sentence almost made He Yushui cry again.

Even though the father and daughter hadn't seen each other for so many years, they both tacitly lowered their voices when they met again, so they didn't alarm others at all. Even Yi Zhonghai and his wife next door didn't know what was happening here.

"Dad, why did you leave in the first place? Would it be dangerous for you to come back now?"

Zhang Xiaoyan had analyzed the situation with her recently about her father abandoning them, so she was afraid that they would fall into danger this time they returned, so she lowered her voice and spoke softly, with a look of concern on her face.

"I am sorry for you. I was too proud at the beginning and fell into the trap of the White Widow. You also know that the Military Control Office was in charge of these things at that time. If I was bitten back, the best outcome for me would be to be imprisoned for decades. It doesn't matter if I am imprisoned. After all, it was my fault and I was blind. But the serious consequences will implicate you two brothers and sisters, so I left you two behind. You have lived with the White Widow for these years. She was wary of me, afraid that I would run away and not help her raise the children. If I, the cash cow, ran away, they would starve to death, especially during those three years. If it weren't for my ability, one of you would really starve to death."

"Then why are you back now? Aren't you afraid now?"

He Yushui naturally thought of how she almost starved to death three years ago, and her father was raising someone else's child. Although she understood, the anger in her heart still made her ask a little sharply.

"Yushui, it's Daddy's fault. I've been writing to you all these years and sending you living expenses. It looks like you haven't received a cent!"

He Daqing patted his daughter's back to comfort her, and a hint of darkness flashed in his black eyes.

"So it's true? Dad! I've suffered so much these years. I really haven't received a penny from you. I almost died of illness several times, and I almost starved to death more than once. My brother was fine at first, but after Jia Dongxu got married, my brother changed. The lunch boxes he brought back were for their family, and I couldn't get any oil from him.

The food we bought for our family was not available at the end of the month. Even my living expenses at school were not paid to me until I asked him again and again. All the money was in small bills. He lent it to Qin Huairu, but the Jia family didn't acknowledge it at all and never paid me back. My brother, that idiot, even ran away very fast.

And the old lady at the back is also a greedy person. She is better to my brother, at least she gave him some food before. But as long as my brother is not around, they change their attitude and will not pity me. Even if I listen to my brother and go to their house to ask for food, they will drive me away with disgust..."

Next, He Yushui talked about what happened at home after He Daqing left like a bamboo tube pouring beans, and her tears never stopped. The topic was whatever came to her mind. I couldn't understand it, and it felt a little confusing.

He Daqing had been listening silently, patting his daughter on the back to comfort her.

In the end, He Yushui fell asleep on He Daqing's shoulder. He Daqing carefully picked up his daughter and gently placed her on the bed. He pulled the old and thin quilt over his daughter and spanked her back like he did when she was a child. After she fell asleep completely, he turned around and walked out the door.

It was already dark at this time. Yi Zhonghai and his wife, and Auntie had already fallen into a deep sleep due to the medication. Yi Zhonghai was looking at the table and felt the light in the room gradually dimming. His heart was in a mess. He didn't know what to do next.

He used the old lady's identity and connections to become the manager of the courtyard, but the old lady is now paralyzed, unable to speak or hear, and has become completely deaf and dumb. Does he really have to provide for her in her old age?

He felt that this year was very unlucky and nothing went as he wished. He was thinking about what to do in the future. If he didn't take care of the old lady, would Jia Dongxu, who was the caretaker, follow suit? And would He Yuzhu, who was the backup caretaker, feel resentful?

Just at this moment there was a knock on the door, which was particularly loud in the quiet night.

"Who is it?"

Yi Zhonghai asked reflexively, but no one answered. He felt a little strange, but he put his worries aside, stood up, turned on the light based on his memory, and then opened the door.

After the door opened, the person in front of him made him stunned. Yi Zhonghai couldn't believe who he saw.

He rubbed his eyes in disbelief, and the action made the man opposite him chuckle.

"Old Yi, Old Yi, you are not old yet, how come you are blind?"

He Daqing pushed the other person away, then walked into the house and sat down. At the same time, he glanced at the furnishings in the room, sneering in his heart.

"He He Da Qing, why are you back?"

Yi Zhonghai had never thought that the other party would come back. After all, after he received the letter, he wrote back in He Yuzhu's tone. The words of severing relations in the letter were very obvious, so he had never thought that the other party would come back. Maybe he had thought about it but just didn't want to admit it. After all, he thought that even if the other party came back, it would be in the future when he was old, not now.

Now all the plans were disrupted. Yi Zhonghai's mind went blank. He only felt a golden light flashing and a buzzing in his ears.

"Why is the old neighbor back? There's not even a glass of water. I didn't expect you to go backwards as you grow older. You don't even know how to entertain guests."

He Daqing crossed his legs, lit a cigarette comfortably, looked at the person in front of him, and said with a smile.
