Siheyuan, Me and the Yu Sisters

Yi Zhonghai sighed and thought

Even if Sha Zhu is in this state, it will be useless if he is released in the future. Who will want a tainted man like him in the future? His retirement plan will also have to be adjusted. Thinking of this, Yi Zhonghai regretted it. Why did he get involved in this fun and offend Zhang Renkang to death? If he had given a hand to Zhang Renkang, he would be grateful to him. If Zhang Renkang would take care of him in his old age, his life would be so comfortable. Now, alas,

Qin Huairu was also upset. This time Shazhu was completely ruined. Who would she find to suck blood from in the future? Banggeng was still growing. Jia Zhangshi, the old man, took away one-third of Qin Huairu's salary for three yuan of painkillers and five yuan of pension money a month. The remaining money was not enough to eat. Jia Zhangshi ate more than anyone else. This family was too difficult.

Before Sha Zhu was around, not to mention the lunch boxes, she could get ten or fifteen yuan a month just by borrowing from Sha Zhu. Qin Huairu had no intention of paying back Sha Zhu's money. In the two years since Jia Dongxu left, she had gotten three or four hundred yuan from Sha Zhu. Now that Sha Zhu is gone, what will she do in the future?

Qin Huairu was thinking about whether to bring Qin Jingru to try to ruin Zhang Renkang and Yu Li's marriage. By then, with Qin Jingru's relationship, it would not be a problem for Zhang Renkang to support his family twenty or thirty yuan a month.

After get off work in the afternoon, when Blue Flood had just left the factory gate, Zhang Renkang had already stewed pork ribs at home. He would stir-fry pork with peppers in the evening and make braised pork for Yu Shui tomorrow at noon. Zhang Renkang had to be the chef for Chen Wei's wedding banquet tomorrow morning.

After a while, Zhang Renkang heard a knock on the door. He opened the door and saw He Daqing standing outside. Seeing Zhang Renkang, He Daqing asked in a hoarse voice:

"Renkang, tell your uncle what's going on."

After receiving Yi Zhonghai's telegram in the morning, He Daqing hurriedly asked for leave, asked someone to pass a message to Widow Bai, borrowed five yuan from a co-worker, and hurried to the bus station to take a bus back to Sijiucheng. As soon as he arrived at the courtyard, he heard an old lady say that Zhang Renkang was in the backyard, so he went to Zhang Renkang to find out the situation. Compared with other people in the courtyard, although Zhang Renkang and Sha Zhu had conflicts, Zhang Renkang was relatively more reliable than others, not to mention that Yu Shui was still adopted by his family.

Zhang Renkang welcomed He Daqing into the house, poured a glass of water and said

"I wasn't in the yard that day either. It was dark when I came back. I heard from the third uncle that Xu Damao had stolen Sha Zhu's blind date. Xu Damao and Lou Xiao'e divorced early in the morning, and he got married to that woman. After Sha Zhu came back, he lost his mind, rushed to the backyard, kicked the door of Xu Damao's house, and dragged Xu Damao out of the quilt and started beating him."

"Look, Xu Damao's door hasn't been repaired yet."

He Daqing looked out the window and saw that the door of Xu's house was blocked by wooden boards. The broken door was leaning against the wall. Zhang Renkang continued.

"I went to the hospital to see Xu Damao this morning. Xu Damao's head was wrapped up like a dumpling. I'm afraid he was seriously injured. The key is that Xu Damao's vitals were kicked to pieces by Sha Zhu. It's too late to be cured."

"Uncle He, you should be mentally prepared. The Xu family will not let Sha Zhu off easily this time."

He Daqing rubbed his head and sighed.

"This idiot, why did I give birth to such a thing? He is going to be shot."

Zhang Renkang said

"Sha Zhu has been fired from the factory. I also went to the police station to see him. According to what the police said, if the Xu family does not forgive Sha Zhu, he will either be shot or sent to Northwest China for forced labor until he dies."

"If Sha Zhu can get a letter of forgiveness from the Xu family, and then find someone to go to the police station to make arrangements, he might be able to serve seven or eight years of forced labor in Zhangjiakou and be released."

"Just take care of it, Uncle He. I'm going to stew pork ribs for Yu Shui. Let's stay here for dinner tonight."

With that, Zhang Renkang went to the kitchen to cook. He was not interested in accompanying He Daqing to figure out how to save Sha Zhu. He no longer hated Sha Zhu, but he would not help Sha Zhu. He Yushui often came to their house when she was a child, so Zhang Renkang and He Yushui got along well. His deceased mother also liked Yushui very much. In addition, Zhang Renkang also wanted to have a younger sister, so he was willing to adopt He Yushui and provide for her living expenses. But forget about Sha Zhu.

He Daqing looked at Zhang Renkang who was busy in the kitchen and nodded. It seemed that Zhang Renkang was really good to He Yushui. He Daqing might not have been able to make spare ribs many times in these years, but Zhang Renkang actually bought them for He Yushui to eat. Suddenly, an idea appeared in He Daqing's mind. Yushui is almost 17 years old now (it is assumed that He Yushui is one year younger than Haitang). Looking at Zhang Renkang again, he has an idea.

When Zhang Renkang was about to cook the stew, He Yushui came back pushing his bicycle and shouted before entering the house.

"Brother Renkang, what good things have you done?"

He Daqing opened the door and shouted in surprise when he saw him sitting on the sofa.

"Dad, why are you back? Didn't you just go to Baocheng?"

He Daqing was surprised to see He Yushui pushing a women's bicycle. He didn't expect Zhang Renkang to be willing to buy a bicycle for He Yushui. It was not cheap. It would cost more than 200 yuan, which was enough to buy a house with a reverse house.

He Daqing laughed

"It's rainy school time."

He Yushui parked the car and sat down on the sofa excitedly. Then he stood up and took out some melon seeds and candies from the cupboard and said:

"Dad, you eat melon seeds. There are cans here. Do you want to eat them?"

He Daqing laughed

"It seems like you're living well with your brother Renkang. You're eating all the canned food."

He Daqing took a look and was shocked. Zhang Renkang had stuffed a whole cupboard with canned food. Zhang Renkang brought out a large basin of ribs and put them on the table. He smiled and said,

"When I'm out for something, Yu Shui eats some canned food when she's hungry, so she won't go hungry when there's nothing to eat at home."

He Daqing sighed

"The rain is blessed to be with you, Renkang, thank you uncle"

He Yushui came over shyly and said

"Brother Renkang, what delicious food did you make?"

Zhang Renkang laughed

"I'm afraid you won't gain weight, so I stewed some pork ribs for you. I'll make you some stir-fried pork with peppers later. Tomorrow morning I'm going to help someone prepare a banquet, so you can get up and heat up the ribs for yourself."

He Yushui pulled Zhang Renkang's arm and said coquettishly

"You have something to do tomorrow, Haitang said she would come tomorrow."

Zhang Renkang laughed

"When she comes, you two can eat together. I'll leave you thirty dollars. After dinner tomorrow, you two can go out and play by yourselves. I don't think I'll be back until the afternoon."

Then he said to He Daqing

"Uncle He, shall we have a couple of drinks tonight?"

He Daqing shook his head and smiled bitterly.

"No, I'm going to eat something and go to Yi Zhonghai to discuss Sha Zhu's matter."

He Yushui asked in confusion

"What happened to my silly brother? Is he causing trouble again?"

He Yushui seemed to understand something. Unless Sha Zhu caused trouble, He Daqing would not come back easily. He Daqing looked at He Yushui and sighed. He told He Yushui about Sha Zhu. He Yushui's eyes widened and said in disbelief.

"Is my silly brother sick? I just told him not to cause trouble when I went to school a few days ago."

"He, he actually beat Xu Damao like this?"

Zhang Renkang sighed and said

"Shazhu has always been at odds with Xu Damao, but he still tolerates it even though he knows Xu Damao is trying to steal his wife."

He Yushui shook his head and said in a low voice

"I have said what I should say and helped as much as I should. I will not care about it anymore. He almost starved me to death twice. Once it was because an old lady gave him a bowl of noodles, and another time it was because Aunt Zhang cooked for him. I have paid him back for what I should have done. He should just fend for himself."

He didn't even look at He Daqing anymore, he took his bowl and chopsticks and sat at the table, saying

"Dad, you eat first, and then go after you finish eating. It's not a big deal to make eight or ten points."

Zhang Renkang felt relieved when he saw He Yushui like this, and said with a smile

"Uncle He, please eat something first. Yi Zhonghai may not be back yet. You can go after you finish eating."

He Daqing nodded and sighed. He knew that He Yushui didn't owe Sha Zhu anything now. Firstly, Sha Zhu didn't take He Yushui seriously before, otherwise he wouldn't have almost starved her to death. Secondly, when He Yushui came back last time, he had already sorted out the family relationship between Sha Zhu and He Yushui, and entrusted Yushui to Zhang Renkang. Strictly speaking, He Yushui didn't owe Sha Zhu anything except that she was now surnamed He.

After He Daqing finished eating, he thanked him and went out. When He Yushui saw He Daqing leaving, she stood up, sat on Zhang Renkang's legs, hugged his neck and started crying.

Zhang Renkang coaxed He Yushui and said

"Why are you crying, Yu Shui? These things have nothing to do with you. From now on, just go to school with peace of mind. If you can't get into a technical secondary school, come down and I will arrange a job for you. Go to work."

He Yushui cried and said

"Brother Renkang, will you ever ignore me?"

Zhang Renkang laughed

"No, there is always a place for you in our house."

He Yushui looked up at Zhang Renkang and said

"I want to move here, is that ok?"

Zhang Renkang laughed

"Okay, bring your things over here in a bit, and that bedroom will be yours from now on."

He wiped He Yushui's face and said

"Look, your face has become like a cat"

He Yushui burst into laughter

"What will happen after Sister Yu Li gets married?"

Zhang Renkang laughed

"Now that she's married into the family, everything belongs to you. How can she chase you away? You're the younger sister in this family, and the house is reserved for you."

"When the time comes, we'll clean up the house over there and connect it up. Then we'll have three bedrooms, which will be enough for us to live in."

He Yushui suddenly looked up at Zhang Renkang, kissed him on the face, and ran away with a smile, shouting

"Brother Renkang, I'm going to the middle courtyard to get my luggage."

Zhang Renkang smiled as he watched He Yushui run away. This is how it feels like home. This kind of atmosphere makes people happy.
