Siheyuan, Me and the Yu Sisters

In the evening, Zhang Renkang's family sat together to eat. Because Yu Haitang was lying on the bed, the girls who came back at night could only make do with rolled noodles and some canned meat. Of course, this was much better than other families. In this era when most people could only taste meat after a few months, at least canned meat was meat.

However, due to Sha Zhu's return, the current atmosphere is somewhat indescribable, especially Zhang Yushui, who was stopped by Sha Zhu in the Intermediate Court when he was off work.

Sha Zhu looked at Yu Shui who was pushing a 26-meter-high bicycle with great energy, and nervously stopped her. Zhang Yu Shui subconsciously stepped back, looking at her brother who had lost a lot of weight, and he didn't know what to feel.

Sha Zhu asked nervously

"Rainwater, are you doing okay now?"

Zhang Yushui looked at Sha Zhu who was avoiding his gaze and nodded.

"Are you out?"

Sha Zhu smiled and said

"No, it's because I behaved well in there, so my boss gave me a few days off. Can I come back to visit my family?"

"As long as you are doing well, Zhang Renkang thinks you are very good. You have gained weight and can ride a bicycle now."

"It was my fault before, take care of yourself in the future"

Zhang Yushui looked at Sha Zhu expressionlessly, not knowing whether she hated him or sympathized with him. Sha Zhu had insisted on his own way and would rather ignore his own sister and help the Jia family. The brother-sister relationship between them had almost been exhausted.

Now seeing Sha Zhu's timid look, Zhang Yushui couldn't believe it. Was this the foolish guy he used to be?

Zhang Yushui didn't know what to say to him, so he could only nod and say

“Brother Renkang is very good to me”

“Take care of yourself too.”

After saying that, Zhang Yushui walked towards the moon gate in the backyard without looking back. When she saw Sha Zhu, Zhang Yushui suddenly remembered all the sufferings in her memory. She was living a good life now. If Sha Zhu wanted to drag her down again, Zhang Yushui would never agree to it, so staying away from him was the best way now.

Sha Zhu looked at Yu Shui's back, feeling lonely but speechless. After He Daqing left, they had been dependent on each other. If he had been an apprentice in a restaurant and a kitchen helper in a steel mill when he was sixteen or seventeen years old, it would have been understandable that he had not taken care of Yu Shui and almost starved her to death.

But later on, Qin Huairu took away the lunch box that he had originally intended to bring back to nourish Yu Shui with a few charming glances. The Jia family ate the food and became plump, but Yu Shui became as thin as a monkey.

Later, when the Jia family borrowed money, he caused trouble and had to pay compensation. In the end, he even planned to deduct the money Yu Shui spent on studying. He could only blame himself.

Sha Zhu felt upset, but he couldn't say anything. He could only lower his head and walk towards Yi Zhonghai's house.

Yi Zhonghai saw Sha Zhu coming back and asked

"How is it? Does that girl still recognize you?"

"Would she agree to ask Zhang Renkang to help you talk to her?"

Yi Zhonghai asked for leave at noon to come back to see Sha Zhu. Seeing Sha Zhu come back safely, he felt sad. Now Yi Zhonghai can only rely on Sha Zhu. Qin Huairu's family is ruined. Not to mention that Bang Geng still has a limp in one leg. Even if he came out intact, a boy who has been to a juvenile detention center will never be able to gain a foothold in society in this life.

How could he afford to support him in his old age? What's more important is that after Bang Geng came back, Yi Zhonghai looked at him with a look that made him feel creepy, as if he was being stared at by a poisonous snake.

After seeing Sha Zhu, Yi Zhonghai finally felt relieved. All these years of investment were not in vain. Although Sha Zhu was in jail, it didn't matter. He still had skills. Another idea Yi Zhonghai had was to let Sha Zhu find Yu Shui to plead for him, and let Yu Shui find Zhang Renkang to help Sha Zhu.

Sha Zhu shook his head and said

"I treated her so badly before, how can I say it now?"

"I still have more than two years left in my sentence. Now the ranch has made me the head chef. I don't have to do any heavy work. I just need to cook for the ranch."

"After I finish serving my sentence, I want to see if I can stay there, get a job, and make a living."

When Yi Zhonghai heard Sha Zhu's plan, he panicked for a moment. He was still counting on Sha Zhu to come back and take care of him in his old age. What would he do if Sha Zhu didn't come back?

Yi Zhonghai quickly persuaded

"Zhu Zi, don't be confused"

"The conditions there are so tough. Besides, do you really plan to stay single and have no children?"

"Listen to uncle. Go find Yu Shui and ask Zhang Renkang to intercede for you. The factory has a purchasing channel at your ranch. Zhang Renkang must know the leader of the ranch."

"The supervision is not that strict now. When the time comes, it won't be a matter of a word from the leader, and you will come back."

"I have two houses here. I will leave them to you when the time comes. You will have a place to live."

"As for work, no matter how bad things get, you can always come back and find a solution, right?"

Yi Zhonghai actually still had his eyes on Zhang Yushui. In his opinion, no matter what, Yushui and Shazhu were biological siblings, and even if their bones were broken, their tendons were still connected. There was no way that Yushui would be so heartless as to not care about Shazhu's life or death, right?

Sha Zhu smiled. He had actually let go of a lot of things in the past year. He didn't want to experience the feeling of being in a desperate situation again. Whether he could tolerate Xu Damao or Qin Jie of the Jia family, in fact, compared to living a good life, living his own life was not that important.

Yi Zhonghai continued

"If you are still interested in Qin Huairu, uncle will tell her. She has three children now and her life is not easy. If you can succeed, it will be a good thing."

"Qin Huairu has a job and is old enough to have children. If she gives you a child from the He family, you will have given an explanation to your ancestors."

How can Shazhu find a decent wife in his current condition? Not to mention in the city, even in the countryside, he would not marry an old bachelor who has been in prison and still owes a large amount of foreign debt.

Sha Zhu smiled and said

"I won't delay Sister Qin. Even if I get out, I will still have to pay off my debt to Xu Damao for most of my life."

"If she gets along with me, she will suffer too."

Yi Zhonghai said softly

"Don't you know Xu Damao has also gone in?"

Sha Zhu was stunned for a moment. He really didn't know about this. He stared out the window blankly, then came back to his senses and said

"What happened to Xu Damao?"

Yi Zhonghai shook his head and said

"I heard that you are corrupt and oppress your co-workers. I don't think Xu Damao will be able to collect your debt."

"Some time ago I heard that Xu Damao was sent to a forest farm in the northeast. It's not certain whether he can come back alive."

Sha Zhu stared at Yi Zhonghai blankly, then suddenly burst into laughter, stood up and said

"Xu Damao, Xu Damao"

"I knew you were a bad guy and you wouldn't be any good."

"Xu Damao, you have come to this day too"

Sha Zhu laughed wildly for a while, then knelt on the ground and burst into tears, which frightened Yi Zhonghai and his wife. They watched helplessly as Sha Zhu knelt on the ground and cried in pain.

Yi Zhonghai was afraid that something might happen to Sha Zhu, so he limped over and pulled Sha Zhu's arm and asked

"Zhu Zi, Zhu Zi, please don't scare Uncle Yi"

Yi Zhonghai looked at Sha Zhu's crazy look and slapped him hard on the face, shouting:

"Zhu Zi, calm down."
