Siheyuan: Yan Jiekuang's carefree life

Qin Huairu said: "I'm already so old. What's the point of the past?!"

Xiao Dang said, "Why is it useless? You can come and live with me for a while. If you don't get used to it, you can come back."

To be honest, Qin Huairu was a little moved at this time. After hesitating for a while, Qin Huairu said: "You won't leave for a while. Let's talk about this in a few days!"

"Mom! Who's here?!" As soon as Qin Huairu finished speaking, Huaihua walked out from the inner room in a daze.

"Huaihua!" Xiaodang called out with a smile. Huaihua thought she was hallucinating, rubbed her eyes, looked in the direction of the sound, and saw Xiaodang standing in front of her. Huaihua woke up instantly and couldn't help but call out, "Sister!" Then Huaihua quickly ran to Xiaodang, hugged Xiaodang tightly, and asked, "Sister, where have you been?! Do you know that we are very worried about you?"

Xiao Dang said, "After my friend and I left Sijiu City, we went to Yangcheng first. Later, I followed others to Hong Kong City. I now have a Hong Kong City ID card, and I have also bought a house in Hong Kong City. This time when I come back, I plan to bring you and mom to live with me in Hong Kong City."

After hearing what Xiaodang said, Huaihua's eyes lit up immediately. Xiaodang, who was already an old hand, could tell from Huaihua's eyes that Huaihua was the same kind of person as her. It was just that Huaihua's potential had not yet been developed.

Qin Huairu saw that her little daughter was somewhat persuaded by Xiaodang. Qin Huairu said hurriedly: "Okay! Your sister has been traveling for many days and must be very tired. Let your sister rest first. If you have anything to say, you can talk tomorrow."

"Oh!" Huaihua responded reluctantly, holding Xiaodang and walking into the house. Qin Huairu looked at the backs of her two daughters and couldn't help but sigh. Then she took the things Xiaodang gave her and followed them in.

Maybe it was because he was tired from the journey or because he had overdrawn his body in Hong Kong. Anyway, Xiao Dang fell asleep as soon as his head touched the pillow. Qin Huairu was restless because Xiao Dang came back. She was groggy and fell asleep only when it was almost dawn. Huaihua was still in excitement, tossing and turning in bed, and didn't fall asleep all night.

It was just past seven in the morning. Although Qin Huairu felt very tired, she still got up from the bed as usual. She glanced at Xiaodang who was lying not far away and breathed a sigh of relief. After getting up, Qin Huairu simply washed up and started to prepare breakfast.

A little after nine o'clock, Xiaodang and Huaihua got up one after another. Xiaodang made the bed and looked at Huaihua, asking, "Huaihua, what kind of work are you doing now?!"

Huaihua replied: "What else can I do? I work as a packer in the screw factory run by the neighborhood office."

Xiao Dang raised his wrist and looked at the time on his watch, then asked, "You're up at this time, aren't you going to work today?!"

"Go ahead!" Huaihua replied, "We work in three shifts. The morning shift takes over the middle shift, the middle shift takes over the night shift, and then it's time to rest. I'm on the middle shift today, so I won't be at work until the afternoon."

Xiao Dang frowned and said, "Your small screw factory still needs to work in three shifts?!"

Huaihua replied: "The screws and nuts produced by our factory are not only supplied to the city of Beijing, but also to the Northeast."

Xiao Dang then asked: "How much do you make a month now?!"

Huaihua replied, "36 yuan, plus a 5 yuan bonus, a total of 41 yuan." Then he asked, "What's the matter?!"

Xiao Dang said, "You work so hard and only make 41 yuan a month. Why don't you follow me to Hong Kong City? Apart from anything else, I can easily make a year's salary in one day."

Qin Huairu walked in from outside and said, "I don't care what you want to do. But Huaihua must stay in Sijiu City for me. I will still rely on Huaihua for my retirement!"

Xiao Dang said, "Mom, I didn't say I don't care about you. I came back this time to take you and Huaihua with me. Anyway, life there is more convenient than in Sijiu City."

Qin Huairu said: "No matter how good Hong Kong City is, I still prefer Sijiu City."

Xiao Dang's face changed and he said, "Mom, why can't I explain it to you clearly?!"

Qin Huairu rolled her eyes at Xiao Dang and urged, "The meal is ready! Let's go eat!"

"Okay!" Xiaodang shrugged helplessly at Huaihua and said, "Huaihua, it's not that I don't want to take you. It's that our mother doesn't agree."

Huaihua raised her lips slightly, revealing a bitter smile, and said, "They say that people like to reminisce about the past when they get older. My mother is the same. What's more, Lou Bancheng has now returned to the old city."

"Lou Bancheng?! Who is Lou Bancheng?!" Xiao Dang asked curiously.

Huaihua showed a surprised expression on her face and asked, "Sister, you don't know Lou Bancheng either?! Then how did you survive in Gangcheng?!"

Xiao Dang stammered, "There are so many big names in Hong Kong. It's impossible for me to know everyone."

Huaihua said: "The Red Star Steel Mill where my mother used to work was originally owned by the Lou family.

Xiao Dang reacted instantly and said, "Who is Lou Bancheng, my Da Dang? It turns out to be him! I don't know him. But I know his son."

Huaihua tilted her head and looked at Xiaodang, saying, "I heard he has many sons. Which one do you know?!"

Xiao Dang did know Lou Zhenhua's son. But this son was born to the third wife. The youngest son of the third wife was named Lou Shiguang. This youngest son was good but did not learn, and was full of evil. If the third wife had not doted on this youngest son and helped him to clean up the mess, the grass on Lou Shiguang's grave would have been three feet high. Xiao Dang had an intersection with Lou Shiguang in the nightclub where she worked. The two of them even spent a night as a dew couple.

After washing up, Xiaodang and Huaihua just walked into the living room, and Qin Huairu brought the prepared food to the table. Xiaodang took a look at the food on the table, frowned unconsciously, and muttered softly: "Mom, you guys are eating this for breakfast?!"

Qin Huairu heard Xiaodang's muttering and said, "It's good to have this to eat. Why are you so picky?! If you want to eat good food, go find a way yourself. I won't serve you!" After that, Qin Huairu quickly peeled an egg and put it into Huaihua's bowl, urging, "Eat it quickly!"

"Oh!" Huaihua responded, gave Xiaodang a helpless look, and started to eat voraciously. Seeing this, Xiaodang didn't say much, picked up the chopsticks and started to eat.

After about seven or eight minutes, Huaihua saw that Xiaodang had almost finished eating and asked, "Sister, what are your plans for today?!"

Xiao Dang replied: "I just came back, what plans can I have?! I plan to rest for a few days and then go around the city. If there is nothing else, I will go back to Hong Kong City."

Qin Huairu asked: "Xiaodang, how many days can you stay at home this time?!"

Xiao Dang thought for a moment and replied, "Ten days or half a month shouldn't be a problem. We'll talk about the details when the time comes."

Huaihua asked: "Sister, you stay at home for so long, how do you work?!"

Xiao Dang pretended not to care and said, "I have more freedom where I work. As long as you can complete the task, you don't have to go to the company."

Qin Huairu frowned, feeling that something was wrong, and asked casually: "Xiaodang, what kind of job do you do in Gangcheng?!"

Xiao Dang blurted out without thinking: "Being a salesperson is similar to being a salesperson in our department store."
