Siheyuan: With the system in hand, the world is mine

Wang Haoran leisurely picked up the small stool, gently patted the non-existent dust, and walked back home slowly with a carefree pace.

As soon as he entered the house, he went straight to the kitchen, looking at the ingredients in front of him, thinking about what to make. He rubbed his chin with his hand and muttered to himself.

Suddenly, his eyes lit up and he shouted excitedly: "Okay! Let's make some fragrant stir-fried pork with green peppers! Pair it with a bowl of sweet pumpkin soup and eat it." Before he finished speaking, he couldn't wait to get to work.

If someone else were here and heard him being so perfunctory, they would probably burst into curses. How could this be just a casual response? He was clearly enjoying life!

At the same time, Yi Zhonghai, with a face as gloomy as the bottom of a pot, also returned home. Without saying a word, he rushed into the house and smashed things crazily, as if he wanted to vent all his anger.

After all this, Yi Zhonghai was so exhausted that he was panting and slumped down in a chair.

Seeing this, an old lady nearby hurried forward and rubbed Yi Zhonghai's back with both hands to help him calm down. At the same time, she said with a worried look on her face, "Old Yi, that Wang Haoran doesn't look like a good person. Let's not provoke him."

"What a fool he is! I asked him to give up the house, so what? Am I not doing this out of kindness? He is the only one living in the empty house. What a waste!

Instead of leaving it idle, it would be better to let other people in the yard live in it. This will also enhance the relationship between neighbors. Isn't that the best of both worlds?

Humph, let's wait and see, one day I will let him know who has the final say in this courtyard!" Yi Zhonghai didn't realize that there was anything wrong with what he did, and he still insisted on his own way and muttered to himself.

Seeing this, an old lady nearby could not help but persuade him, "Old Yi, I think we should just forget about it. Today I saw that Director Wang and that kid have a very special relationship. If we don't handle it properly and the situation becomes awkward, I'm afraid it will be hard to deal with it then."

After hearing this, Yi Zhonghai nodded thoughtfully and agreed, "Well, you are right. We really need to think it over carefully, especially how to get past Director Wang. It's really tricky."

At this moment, a tempting aroma wafted into his nose. Yi Zhonghai sniffed and asked in confusion, "Eh... what's that smell? It smells so good, is someone frying meat?"

As soon as the voice fell, the auntie said: "It must be Wang Haoran's family. He moved today, so he made something delicious to celebrate."

"This little beast doesn't know how to respect the elderly and love the young, and doesn't know how to be filial to the ancestors in the yard." Hearing this, Yi Zhonghai became angry again.

"Grandma, I want to eat meat, I want to eat meat." In the Jia family, there was a commotion over the smell of meat.

"You money-loser, are you deaf? Didn't you hear that my grandson wants to eat meat? Hurry up and get some meat. My grandson is at the stage of growing up, and he needs to be well nourished!" Jia Zhang glared at Qin Huairu and yelled with saliva flying.

At this moment, Qin Huairu stood there like a wooden man, with empty eyes, as if she had already lost her soul. She was used to her mother-in-law's scolding and making things difficult for her, but she still couldn't let it go in her heart.

Jia Dongxu sat quietly by the side, lowering his head, as if trying to isolate himself from everything in front of him. He neither spoke up for his wife nor stopped his mother's behavior, but just chose to remain silent.

Qin Huairu looked at the man who had vowed to make her happy, and her heart was filled with endless disappointment and pain. She couldn't help but think of how she had married into this family with great expectations.

I thought I could live a comfortable life like city dwellers, but the reality is so cruel - not only do I have to do laundry, cooking and housework every day, but I also have to endure the unwarranted accusations and abuse from my mother-in-law.

"Mom, I really don't have money to buy meat. You only give me so little money for food every month, which is not enough. Now the family is almost out of food, how can I have money to buy meat!" Qin Huairu said in a crying voice, tears welling up in her eyes, looking so pitiful.

"Just go when I tell you to! What are you dawdling about? Isn't that little bastard busy frying meat right now?

You should go to his house and get some back. How can the two of them finish so much? Instead of wasting it, you might as well give it to my grandson to satisfy his craving." Jia Zhang knew clearly that Qin Huairu had no money to buy meat.

After all, the living expenses given to Qin Huairu every month were carefully calculated by Jia Zhangshi, and she would never give a penny more. She picked up a large bowl on the table and stuffed it into Qin Huairu's hand without saying a word.

"Mom, you just had a big fight with Wang Haoran today. Now I'm going to ask him for meat. Will he agree to give it to us?" Looking at the heavy bowl in his hand, Qin Huairu couldn't help but twitching his mouth a few times, and said to Jia Zhang with a bitter face.

However, when she caught a glimpse of Jia Zhang's ferocious face, which looked as if it was about to pounce on her and bite her at the next second, even though she was reluctant, she had no choice but to push the door open and walk out.

Because she knew very well that if she dared to disobey her mother-in-law's wishes at this time, she would probably be beaten again...

"Xiaoya, wash your hands quickly and eat." Wang Haoran brought the food to the table and served a large bowl of white rice.

"I'm here, brother." Hearing that it was time to eat, Wang Xinya rushed into the kitchen in a hurry.

Dong·······Dong···········

"Who is it? You're still not eating peacefully at this hour of night." Hearing the knock on the door, Wang Haoran looked at his sister and said, "You eat first. I'll go check."

"Hello, Wang Haoran, I'm your sister Qin who lives next door. My son Banggeng is clamoring for meat at home. Where can I get him meat in the middle of the night? Can you lend me some? I'll pay you back later."

Wang Haoran opened the door, only to see Qin Huairu looking at Wang Haoran's handsome face and lowering her head shyly.

Then he walked into the house and saw the white rice and meat on the dining table. He thought to himself, what kind of family is this? I haven't tasted white rice and meat for many years. Then he swallowed and said.

"First, don't try to claim kinship with me. You are not my biological sister. At best, we are just neighbors, nothing more. Second, if you want to eat meat, go find someone else. I don't have enough for myself. I am not the father of your child, so go find whoseever son you want." Wang Haoran looked at Qin Huairu and said sarcastically.

"You are bullying me." Hearing this, Qin Huairu stamped her feet, looking like she was ready to be picked, and said shyly.

"Let's go quickly. I still need to eat." Seeing Qin Huairu like this, if it were anyone else, they would have rushed into battle long ago. But he didn't dare to provoke Qin Huairu. Once he got involved with her, he wouldn't be able to get rid of her. Then Wang Haoran suppressed his inner restlessness and said impatiently, and was about to drive Qin Huairu out.

"You can't finish all this meat, so what's wrong with giving me some? I'm not going to give it back to you." Seeing Wang Haoran who was unmoved by any persuasion, Qin Huairu began to doubt her own beauty. She stopped pretending and went straight to the point, stretching out her hands and grabbing the meat on the table.

Wang Haoran didn't tolerate him. He picked up Qin Huairu with one hand and threw him out of the house. He slammed the door shut and left Qin Huairu cursing outside. The others knew the character of the Jia family and stood aside to watch the show without disturbing them.

"What are you doing so late at night? What's going on, Xiao Qin?" At this time Yi Zhonghai came out from the side and asked with concern. After all, it was related to his retirement plan and he couldn't just ignore it.

"Uncle, Banggeng was clamoring for meat at home. I wanted to borrow some meat from Wang Haoran, but he threw me out when he refused to lend it to me." Qin Huairu wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes.

"Damn it, this beast, I can't bear to let go of him at all. Sister Qin, let me ask for an explanation for you." Sha Zhu, who was standing next to her, saw Qin Huairu's sad look and said with heartache.

"Wang Haoran... open the door! If you don't open it, I'll break it down!" Sha Zhu banged on the door and shouted at the top of his voice.

"Fuck...are you guys ever going to stop? You have nothing to do all day and you can't even eat a meal in peace!

Silly Zhu, are you itching to do something again? Wasn’t the lesson you got from being beaten last time painful enough? "Wang Haoran opened the door and roared angrily.

Hearing this, Sha Zhu couldn't help but think of the terrible beating he received before, and subconsciously shrank his neck.

However, when he saw Qin Huairu staring at him, he had to grit his teeth and said, "Wang Haoran, my dear sister, I just asked you to borrow some meat. Why are you so stingy? It's just a little bit of meat. Don't you have any sympathy at all?"

When Wang Haoran heard this, he burst into laughter. He looked around and asked everyone, "A little meat? In this day and age, which family can often have meat to eat?

So many people in the yard haven't tasted meat for a long time, why don't they come to borrow it from me? But only Qin Huairu came! How can she be so embarrassed? "This statement attracted a lot of echoes from everyone in the yard.

Seeing people around pointing and talking, Qin Huairu lowered his head in embarrassment.

"Go away, go away. It's so late at night. Go home, eat and sleep." Looking at Qin Huairu who had aroused public anger, Yi Zhonghai came out and tried to smooth things over.

Seeing the old man standing up, Sha Zhu had no choice but to give up. After everyone left, Yi Zhonghai quietly handed five yuan to Qin Huairu and said, "Xiao Qin, use this money to buy some meat tomorrow. Dongxu is my apprentice and I will not leave him alone."

"Thank you, uncle. Dongxu and I will definitely take care of you in your old age." Qin Huairu held the money in his hand and said to the uncle.

"Okay... okay... go back." Seeing Qin Huairu being so sensible, Yi Zhonghai laughed heartily without forgetting his painstaking efforts.

Wang Haoran happened to see this scene, but he didn't say much and turned back to the house to eat.

After dinner, I put my sister on the bed and hurriedly entered the system space. Looking at the huge space, there was only a desolate land with no visible boundaries and a spiritual spring.

Wang Haoran took a sip and felt his pores open up. He felt comfortable. This thing should be able to nourish the body! I can give some to my sister later. Then I thought about what to do with this piece of land.

"Forget it. I'll plant the wheat, rice, and various fruits and vegetables I signed up for first, and then figure out how to raise some pigs, cows, sheep, etc., and then I'll be able to achieve meat freedom. Just thinking about it makes me happy."

Then he started to plant busily. After a while, he took a shower in the system, exited the space, lay on the bed and fell asleep.
