Siheyuan: Yan Jiekuang's carefree life

He Yuzhu's face changed and he asked, "Jie Kuang, how did Yu Shui offend you?!"

Yan Jiekuang said, "A while ago, I wanted to eat braised pork. I bought the meat myself, and wanted Yushui to talk to you and help me cook the meat. Then we can each have half. But your Yushui looked down on me. I had to give up. But then again. Brother Zhuzi, you are a straight-forward person, but your Yushui is different. She has a lot of twists and turns in her mind! I'm not trying to sow discord between you two siblings. Your Yushui and Jia's Banggeng are the same kind of people. But your Yushui disguises herself well."

After hearing what Yan Jiekuang said, He Yuzhu's face changed several times. If someone else said this, He Yuzhu's fist would have gone up long ago. But Yan Jiekuang was different. Although He Yuzhu and Yan Jiekuang did not have a deep intersection, Yan Jiekuang had helped He Yuzhu a lot during this period. Moreover, Yan Jiekuang saw many things more thoroughly than he, He Yuzhu.

He Yuzhu sighed and said, "Jie Kuang, if you want to eat something in the future, just come over and I'll make it for you. No need to ask anyone else to pass on the message."

"Okay! I'll remember that!" Yan Jiekuang looked at Yan Bugui and urged him, "Dad, don't be lazy! Hurry up!"

Yan Bugui and his son were dragging the cart, so they couldn't go fast. After He Yuzhu passed Yan's father and son, he unconsciously quickened his pace. More than ten minutes later, He Yuzhu returned home. Liu Lan, who was knitting at home, saw that He Yuzhu looked unhappy, put down what she was holding, walked to He Yuzhu's side, and asked, "What's wrong?!"

He Yuzhu gave a bitter smile and asked, "Am I a failure?!"

Liu Lan was stunned for a moment and asked, "Why are you asking these questions out of the blue?!"

He Yuzhu said: "I have lived with rain for so many years, but no outsider has ever understood rain."

Liu Lan comforted her, "No matter how bad Yu Shui is, she is still your sister. She will grow up and get married sooner or later. Even if you feel uncomfortable, you can just endure it for a few more years. When she finishes her studies, gets a job, and gets married, your mission will be completed. You can also explain it to your mother."

He Yuzhu sighed, looked at Liu Lan with a smile, and then, while Liu Lan was not paying attention, he pulled Liu Lan into his arms.

Liu Lan couldn't help but yelled, "Damn it!" Then she showed a shy expression on her face and said, "It's still daytime. What if someone comes in?!"

He Yuzhu hugged Liu Lan and said, "I'm hugging my own wife at home, what does it have to do with others?!"

When He Yuzhu and Liu Lan were at home, Yan Bugui and his son came back with a cart. After unloading the things, Yan Bugui pushed the bicycle out, fixed the cart to the back seat of the bicycle, and then rode away.

The third aunt looked at the things piled up in the main room and couldn't help asking, "Jie Kuang, how did you get so many things back?!"

Yan Jiekuang replied, "Mom, don't look at these things because they are tattered. When I sort them out later, you will definitely like them." Then he pointed to the jars on the side and said, "These jars were picked by Dad. Do you like them?!"

The third aunt picked up a jar, looked at it carefully, and said, "It's just the right size." Then she looked at the wooden box next to her and said, "Jie Kuang, this wooden box is pretty good."

"Mom! This wooden box has a use for me. I won't give it to you. When I have a chance next time, I'll help you find a better one." After saying that, Yan Jiekuang moved the wooden box back to his room for fear of accidents and hid it under the bed. Then he took his tool bag and went back to the main room.

About half an hour later, Yan Bugui pushed his bicycle into the courtyard gate and heard the sound of a radio coming from his home. Yan Bugui's eyes lit up immediately, and after pushing his bicycle under his window sill and locking it, he ran into the main room impatiently and said, "Jie Kuang, is this the radio you brought back from the scrap recycling station warehouse?!"

Yan Jiekuang nodded and asked, "Dad, this thing is not bad, right?!"

Yan Bugui replied, "Not bad!" Then Yan Bugui showed a curious expression on his face and asked, "Jie Kuang, when did you learn these skills?!"

Yan Jiekuang replied, "I like to go to the bookstore to find books to read when I have nothing to do. After a while, I will learn it after reading a lot. This stuff is quite simple."

The third auntie interjected: "If it were easy, then why would it be your turn?!"

Yan Jiekuang smiled at the third aunt and said, "Who told you that your son is so gifted?!"

Yan Bugui rubbed his hands and asked, "Jie Kuang, what are you going to do with this radio?!"

Yan Jiekuang didn't even think about it and answered directly: "Of course we keep it for ourselves." Then he asked: "Dad, do you have any other ideas?!"

"No!" Yan Bugui replied firmly, and then asked: "Jie Kuang, what are you going to do with the bicycles you assembled this time? Do you want me to sell them for you?!"

Yan Jiekuang said: "Dad, you are a teacher. You can't do anything speculative!"

Yan Bugui said, "How could I possibly engage in speculation?! Isn't it the end of the year when we are going to select advanced people?! Your father wants to work hard this year."

Yan Jiekuang understood Yan Bugui's meaning instantly. However, he was reluctant to help Yan Bugui for nothing. Seeing Yan Jiekuang lowering his head and saying nothing, the third aunt could not help but said, "Jiekuang, your father can get a raise for his advanced achievements. This is a good thing for our family. If you have the ability, help your father."

Yan Jiekuang thought for a moment and said, "The parts we picked this time can be used to assemble three bicycles. I'm going to keep one of them. You can use the other two to get connections."

Yan Bugui said, "Jie Kuang, aren't two a little too few? How about you give me all three? You have the skill anyway. It won't cost you a little more time."

Yan Jiekuang said, "Either two or none! You choose!" Yan Jiekuang pretended to understand and said, "Now I understand why you kept urging me to go to the recycling station. You were waiting for me here! Dad, you are awesome! You actually schemed against me."

Yan Bugui smiled awkwardly and said, "How can this be called calculation?! This is a matter of mutual benefit."

Yan Jiekuang glared at Yan Bugui and said, "I'm too lazy to talk to you." Then Yan Jiekuang walked out. Yan Bugui asked, "Where are you going?!"

Yan Jiekuang replied, "I'm going to the repair shop to buy parts. I'll be back soon."

After Yan Jiekuang left, Yan Bugui could not wait to walk to the radio, changing the channel while saying, "I have wanted to buy a radio for a long time. But I didn't have a ticket. I didn't expect that my dream would finally come true today."

The third aunt said: "Isn't this all thanks to our Jie Kuang?!"

Yan Bugui said, "Three turns and one ring. Now our family has one turn and one ring. When I get a sewing ticket, I will buy you a sewing machine. In the future, you won't have to work so hard to mend clothes or make clothes."

The third aunt joked: "Are you willing to buy a sewing machine?!"

Yan Bugui grinned and said, "Let's talk about it when we get the tickets."
