Siheyuan, Me and the Yu Sisters

Yu Li struggled hard to get rid of Zhang Renkang's disruptive hand and said angrily

"She's pregnant with your child, so I have to ask her what her plans are."

"It's impossible for her to wander around with the Zhang family's flesh and blood."

Although the People's Republic of China had been established for more than ten years, there was still a remnant of feudalism in people's minds. Especially when Yu Li was a child, people in China were still bald. People were not too angry about men having affairs. What Yu Li was worried about was whether Lou Xiao'e would bring her child to destroy her and Zhang Renkang's family in the future.

Zhang Renkang obviously guessed Yu Li's thoughts, and after thinking for a while, he said

"Lou Xiao'e will be leaving next year. She won't be back in ten years. It's too risky for you to meet her."

After Zhang Renkang finished speaking, Yu Li still didn't understand and asked

"What do you mean? They just left, it's not like they won't come back. How can it be ten years?"

"Renkang I didn't understand?"

Zhang Renkang stood up and looked toward the high window on the west side. The heavy snow outside the window was drifting along with his thoughts. After a while, he slowly said:

"It's no big deal to tell you, but you have to remember in your heart that you should never tell this to anyone else, otherwise we will be in big trouble."

Yu Li nodded and said,

"I know, but who can I tell? Aren't we husband and wife now? What good will it do to me if something happens to you?"

Zhang Renkang sighed and said

"You know that their family is a big capitalist, right?"

Yu Li nodded and said

"Everyone in the city knows it. Lou half city, Lou half city. Back then, half of the city was said to be owned by the Lou family."

Zhang Renkang snorted and said

"So who do you think is in charge now?"

Yu Li didn't say anything. This question was a bit difficult for her. Zhang Renkang smiled and said

"Of course, it is the descendants of workers and peasants like us who are in charge. Do you think the higher authorities will let off those who exploited and oppressed us in the past?"

Yu Li really didn't know what to say for a moment. Come to think of it, the Lou family owed so much blood debt back then. They couldn't just say that once the family property was handed over, the laborers and some other people who died back then would have died in vain, right?

Yu Li whispered

"Will the higher-ups settle accounts with the Lou family sooner or later?"

Zhang Renkang shook his head and said

"I don't know, but look at the situation this year. The school is in such a mess in the middle of the year. If it continues like this, they will be unable to resist and fight each other sooner or later."

Yu Li said worriedly

"Then there's nowhere for them to hide? What are you going to do now?"

Zhang Renkang laughed

"You are the only one who knows that Lou Xiao'e and I have a relationship. No one else knows. I always go to Lou's house secretly at night."

"As long as you don't tell anyone and refuse to admit it, the outside world will only know that we were neighbors before. Everyone in this compound is Lou Xiao'e's neighbor. We are not the only ones, everyone is."

Yu Li sighed, stared at Zhang Renkang and said

"Why do you have to provoke her?"

Zhang Renkang shook his head and said

"Isn't that an accident? They are related, how can I ignore her? Then what would I be?"

He hugged Yu Li and said

"Lily, don't worry, I am absolutely serious about you. I will definitely love you and cherish you for the rest of my life."

Yu Li was happy in her heart, but she still hummed for the sake of face and said

“Who knows if you are lying to me?”

Said again

"What will Lou Xiao'e and the others do then?"

Zhang Renkang said with a smile

"I'm afraid they can't stay in the country any longer, so we can only let them go and wait until the policy allows them to come back."

"But I guess it will take seven or eight years."

Yu Li lowered her head, not knowing what she was thinking. Suddenly, Yu Haitang's voice came from outside the door.

"Sister, you haven't gotten up yet, what time is it?"

Yu Haitang and Zhang Yushui were standing at the door with red faces, calling for help. They didn't sleep well last night. Although Yu Li buried her head in the quilt and lowered her voice, they still blushed. This morning, Yu Li didn't get up, and Zhang Renkang had been in the bedroom for a long time. Yu Haitang colluded with Zhang Yushui with a sly smile to go to the master bedroom to spy on what they were doing.

Yu Li shyly lifted the quilt up and shouted

"Yu Haitang, wait and see how I'm going to deal with you later"

The two people outside the door laughed and ran away. Zhang Renkang laughed and stood up, put on his clothes and said to Li

"If you really want to see her, I'll think of a way later. She'll probably be gone in April or May next year."

After putting on his clothes, Zhang Renkang walked out of the bedroom and smiled at Zhang Yushui and Yu Haitang who were laughing on the sofa.

"Let's go out and have a snowball fight. It's no use staying indoors."

Yu Haitang shouted excitedly

"Okay, I just said we were going to play in the snow in the yard."

Zhang Yushui also said excitedly

"I'll go get some clothes."

As they talked, the two took out their coats and put them on and went to the yard. Zhang Renkang called Yu Li and asked her to change her clothes and wash herself. He also put on his coat and went out. As soon as he went out, he was hit on the head by a snowball. Zhang Renkang smiled and grabbed the snowball on the ground and threw it towards Yu Haitang and Zhang Yushui. If we don’t consider the impact of the heavy snow, it would be just right at this time.

"Goose feathers were flying everywhere, the clothes were plain and the clothes were jade-clad, there were laughter and joy, and the atmosphere was full of joy."

Zhang Renkang and his friends were having fun when suddenly there was a commotion in the middle courtyard. Then they heard Qin Huairu shouting:

"Someone come quickly, my mother-in-law is crazy"

"Someone come quickly"

Zhang Renkang brushed off the falling snow on his body, and saw Liu Haizhong from the east wing come out with Liu Guangtian and Liu Guangfu. When they saw Zhang Renkang, Liu Haizhong asked

"Renkang, what's going on?"

Zhang Renkang shook his head and turned to Haitang and Zhang Yushui and said

"You two go back first and see how your sister is doing."

Then he said to Liu Haizhong

"Let's go, uncle, and see what's going on."

As soon as Zhang Renkang and his companions arrived at the middle courtyard, they saw Jia Zhang being pinned to the ground and struggling by Yi Zhonghai, Yan Jiecheng, and Liu Donglai from the front courtyard. Qin Huairu was crying and holding her three children, and Yan Bugui was shouting

"Old Liu, you are finally here, quickly hold down Jia Zhang, she is going crazy"

When Liu Haizhong heard this, he immediately kicked Liu Guangtian and shouted

"What are you still standing there for? Hurry up and go."

Liu Guangtian rushed over and almost fell flat on his face. He pressed down Jia Zhang's two legs that were kicking from behind. Liu Haizhong asked hurriedly:

"What's going on? Wasn't Jia Zhang fine this morning?"

Jia Zhang cried out

"Qin Huairu, where did you hide my medicine? You bitch, do you want to kill me?"

"Qin Huairu, you little slut, have you found a strange man and want to murder me?"

……

While pressing Jia Zhang's left shoulder and head, Yi Zhonghai panted and shouted

"Go find a rope first and tie it up first."

Yan Bugui rushed home upon hearing this, and soon found a thick hemp rope. Yi Zhonghai and Liu Haizhong held down Jia Zhang's shoulders, Liu Donglai pressed down Jia Zhang's spine, Liu Guangtian and Yan Jiecheng held down Jia Zhang's legs. Perhaps it was because of Jia Zhang's physique that her frantic struggle gave Liu Guangtian and Yan Jiecheng a kick, which knocked them upside down, and almost allowed Jia Zhang to break free.

After finally pinning Jia Zhang down, Yan Bugui quickly tied up Jia Zhang's legs to her ankles, then tied her arms and wrists tightly twice. After tying them up, he wiped the sweat off her face, sat back, and gasped for breath.

Yi Zhonghai, Liu Haizhong and Liu Donglai were also very tired. They had only drunk a bowl of corn porridge from last night until now, and Liu Haizhong had only eaten one extra egg. They didn't know how long the snow would last, so they dared not eat as much as they wanted. Even if they waited until the snow stopped and food was delivered to the city, it would take two or three days to buy it. Since they didn't have to go to work, of course they could just fill their stomachs. Did they really think they could eat as much as they wanted like Zhang Renkang, with meat for every meal?

Liu Haizhong asked breathlessly

"Qin Huairu, what's wrong with your mother-in-law? Wasn't she fine this morning?"

Jia Zhang was still cursing at the side, Zhang Renkang said

"Go get a rag to cover her mouth and find out what's going on first."

As soon as Zhang Renkang finished speaking, Yan Jiecheng, who was very perceptive, ran over from home and brought a piece of rag from somewhere and stuffed it into Jia Zhang's mouth.

Jia Zhang's whimpering finally calmed down. Qin Huairu cried and said

"She was fine this morning, but my mother-in-law suddenly complained of back and leg pain, so she went to look for painkillers. The painkillers I just bought last month were all used up yesterday. There were none at home, so she told me to wait until the snow stopped before buying some, but they are not available now."

"Everything was fine at first, but after more than an hour my mother-in-law started complaining of a headache, rolling around in the house, and asked me to give her painkillers."

"When I couldn't take it out, she started beating me like crazy, and she also wanted to hit Banggeng. Look at the fire hook that hit Banggeng."

As he said this, he lifted up the back of the crying Bang Geng. Everyone gasped when they saw him. An old lady on the side said in confusion:

"Ms. Jia Zhang is usually very ruthless, why did she do such a cruel thing today?"

Liu Haizhong stared at Jia Zhang in a daze. Oh my god, I have met an opponent in the courtyard. I have to go back and upgrade Liu Guangtian. At least I have to get a stick. Looking at Jia Zhang thoughtfully, I have to communicate with her. For a moment, Liu Haizhong felt that he was not alone.

Zhang Renkang looked at Jia Zhang, whose eyes were red and whose face was ferocious. Maybe it was the rag stuffed in her mouth that made Jia Zhang look ferocious with her mouth wide open. He asked Qin Huairu

"You said that Jia Zhang didn't take painkillers this morning, and then this happened after a while?"

Qin Huairu nodded and said crying

"There were only two or three slices left last night, and my mother-in-law ate them all before going to bed?"

Zhang Renkang continued to ask

"How many painkillers do you buy for her every month? How much does Jia Zhang take every month?"
