Back to the ancient restaurant

After Li Zian smashed an egg that day, Mrs. Zhang was angry and ashamed, and grabbed Li Laosi and made a fuss.Seeing Li Laosi's helpless appearance, Mrs. Zhang could not wait to pounce on him and scratch his face.But considering that he still has to rely on Li Lao Si for the time being, he finally endured it.

Sitting in front of the bronze mirror, Mrs. Zhang gently put a thin layer of powder on her face, thinking that she would go to the restaurant where Li Laosi worked and cry later, and take some oil and water out of him by the way.Mrs. Zhang was about to change her clothes when she made up her mind, when she heard someone knocking on the door outside.

Mrs. Zhang walked to the door and opened it a little, only to see a middle-aged man in a blue brocade robe standing at the door. When she saw Mrs. Zhang coming out to answer the door, she hurriedly took a step back.

Mrs. Zhang held the door frame and looked the middle-aged man up and down, and said softly, "May I ask who are you looking for?"

"I've seen this sister-in-law." As he spoke, the middle-aged man bent down towards Mrs. Zhang.

"I heard that the owner of this set of yards is going to sell the yard. I was interested so I came to have a look. The toothbroker said just now that I had a bad stomach, so I asked me to come here first."

Mrs. Zhang was shocked when she heard the words. The yard she lives in now was rented by Li Laosi.I just had a fight with Li Laosi a few days ago. If the house is sold and refuses to rent again, Li Laosi may not help her again, so wouldn't I be reduced to the streets?

Thinking of this, Mrs. Zhang panicked.Just as he was about to close the door and push the man out, he saw the dentist who rented the house to him hurried over, and hurriedly bowed to the middle-aged man to make amends.

Dentalist Zhang didn't dare to offend, so he told her that a client came to see the house, so he pushed open another door and welcomed the middle-aged man into the yard.Mrs. Zhang followed behind the two in a daze, feeling a little lost for a while.However, after hearing the middle-aged man in brocade clothes say that he was widowed and wanted to buy a house for the elderly, his whole mind became active.

The toothbrush led the man to the kitchen, and saw him clutching his stomach and pleading guilty to the two, and immediately ran towards the toilet.Seeing the opportunity came, Mrs. Zhang hurriedly and courteously let him into the living room, poured a cup of hot tea and handed it to the man in brocade robe.

"The weather is very cold, sir, drink a cup of hot tea to warm yourself up."

The man took the tea bowl with a flattered face, and hurriedly thanked Mrs. Zhang.Then he took a peek at Mrs. Zhang, saw that she was looking at him with a smile, and lowered her head again.

Seeing that there was something going on, Mrs. Zhang twisted her waist and sat down opposite the man.Looking at the man with sympathy, he asked, "I just heard from you and the dentist that you are single now? Don't you have any children?"

Seeing that man's eyes darkened and he nodded without making a sound, Mrs. Zhang sighed in pain and continued, "Hey, we really share the same disease. The one in my family also died early, leaving me alone to take care of him." Living with a pair of children. I finally brought up a pair of children, but the two children turned out to be white-eyed wolves, not to mention their disobedience, and kicked me out of the house, so they had to do some work to support themselves. It was hard I rented a house and settled down, but now the house is bought by my husband, and I will be kicked out again."

As she spoke, Mrs. Zhang pinched her handkerchief and began to cry.

Seeing this, the man stepped forward to comfort her, and after coaxing Mrs. Zhang for a while, she stopped crying.

"You made me laugh." Mrs. Zhang said, wiping away the tears on her face with a forced smile.With that resolute look, the man who looked at him was full of sympathy.

"I'm a businessman, and I've been running around all year round. I bought a house just to have a place to stay. I was quite satisfied with this house, but I didn't expect it to cause my sister-in-law such trouble. I'd better look elsewhere."

After speaking, the man got up and walked out.

Mrs. Zhang finally met such a good fish, how could she let him off the hook so easily.He hurriedly got up and walked quickly to the man's side, reached out and grabbed his sleeve to stop him.

"Sir, don't leave in a hurry. I know it's not easy for you. Why don't you just buy the house? If you take pity on me, rent me a room so that I can have a place to live. You can't let my husband go again just because of me." Run elsewhere."

……

After noon, Li Zi'an sat behind the counter and watched Uncle Yang, who was dressed in a brocade robe, come in, and hurriedly got up and stood up.

"Uncle Yang, how are things going?"

"It went well. That woman is really not a good person. Hearing me say that I am a widower, her eyes immediately changed." Uncle Yang recalled the scene when he met Mrs. Zhang just now, and a trace of contempt flashed in his eyes.

"It's hard work, Uncle Yang. You can hang her for two days first. People like her can't bear it."

Uncle Yang responded, changed the brocade robe that Li Zian specially bought for him, and went to work in the backyard.

For the next two days, Uncle Yang didn't go to the yard where Mrs. Zhang lived. He just asked the tooth dealer to show his face again, making Mrs. Zhang think that Uncle Yang would really buy the yard.

After dragging on for five days in a row, Uncle Yang went to the small courtyard again.It wasn't until two hours later that he came back with a flushed face.Seeing Li Zi'an, Uncle Yang's eyes flickered, and it took him a long time to say in a low voice, "That woman today...wanted to seduce me."

Hearing this, Li Zi'an was stunned for a moment and then laughed, knowing that Mrs. Zhang couldn't stand it anymore, and it seemed that it was his turn to appear next time.

It's just that I don't know if my father's blood pressure will soar with anger when he sees that scene, Li Zi'an thinks about it and feels a little hopeful in his heart.

The next day, Li Zian deliberately went back to the yard where his father and the others lived in the early morning.At this time, the old man had just woken up not long ago, and he was sitting in the main room smoking a pipe and waiting for Xiaomeng to make breakfast.

Seeing Li Zi'an came back to greet him, the old man took a sharp breath, nodded and let him enter the room sideways.

The two sat in silence for nearly a quarter of an hour before Li Zi'an said: "Father, I have been thinking about that incident a few days ago. I am an elder, I shouldn't treat her like this."

Hearing what Li Zi'an said, Father Li's face softened slightly.Thinking of the guarantee he had made to his three sons earlier, the father felt a little embarrassed for a while.After all, he slapped himself first, so it is understandable for the youngest son to be so angry.However, he really shouldn't fight with his elders.

Now that the youngest son bows his head to himself and admits his mistake, Father Li will not hold on to his airs all the time, he nodded at Li Zian and said, "It's good that you know you're wrong, just expose this matter like this, and don't bring it up again .”

"How can I say that she is also my great aunt, so I always feel guilty. Why don't dad accompany me tomorrow morning to make amends to my great aunt."

Father Li couldn't refuse to save face for himself, so he nodded immediately.After the two discussed meeting here tomorrow morning, Li Zian continued a few gossips with Li Wenming and Li Wenqing before turning around and leaving the yard.

Through the door, Li Zi'an looked at the smiling Father Li and couldn't help but sneered, thinking in his heart that he only hoped that at this time tomorrow, the smile on his father's face would still be so bright.

Early in the morning, after watching Uncle Yang enter Zhang's courtyard, Li Zian also straightened his clothes and went to his father's place.At this time, the old man had already packed up. When he saw that Li Zian had two snacks in his hand, he blamed him, "Why did you bring something? Your aunt is the kindest person. As long as you admit your mistake sincerely, your aunt I won't blame you."

Hearing this, Li Zian smiled and said: "Isn't the old saying said, it's no surprise that there are many people who are polite. It seems more sincere to bring something than empty hands."

The two sat for a while longer, reckoning that it was almost time.Li Zian got up and followed his father to Zhang's house.

Li Zian once told Uncle Yang not to lock the gate after entering Zhang's courtyard.After bringing his father to Zhang's gate, Li Zian took the initiative to knock on the door panel twice, seeing no one answered, Li Zian casually touched the courtyard door with his hand.The courtyard door opened in response, and Father Li walked in first without thinking too much.

When he reached the door of the main room, Father Li called out.Only a man's panicked voice suddenly came from the inner room, and the man said in a pleading tone: "Sister-in-law, don't untie my clothes, can we talk in the living room if we have something to say?"

Immediately, Mrs. Zhang said: "The living room is strangely cold, not as warm as the inner room. Don't you despise me?"

Li Zi'an saw his father's expression suddenly changed, and then he walked towards the inner room with big strides.Li Zian followed behind, with a smile on the corner of his mouth.Watching the old man push open the door of the inner room, he saw Mrs. Zhang wearing only a blue bellyband, pressing on Uncle Yang, and tearing at Uncle Yang's lapel with both hands.

Hearing the sound of the inner room door, and seeing Li Laosi standing at the door with a livid face, Mrs. Zhang let out an exclamation and hurriedly turned over from Uncle Yang, reached out and pulled the quilt on the bed to wrap herself up.

Seeing this, Li Zian's face was full of astonishment, he looked at Mrs. Zhang, then at the flushed Uncle Yang and the ashen-faced old man, pointed at the two people in the inner room, and said "you" For a long time, he didn't hold back any other words.

"Zhang Chunni! You did a good job!" Saying that, Father Li stepped forward and slapped Mrs. Zhang.

The crisp applause came to Li Zi'an's ears, and he felt it was unusually pleasant. Seeing Zhang's crying on the side of the bed in embarrassment.Li Zian quietly winked at Uncle Yang, telling him to take the opportunity to slip away.

Uncle Yang received the instructions without ambiguity. Seeing that the two of them didn't notice him, he immediately ran along the wall.

After Li's father beat him, he gradually calmed down. Looking at the crying pear blossom and raining Zhang, he wished he could kill her.Looking sideways at his stunned son at the door, Father Li's eyes were full of remorse, he slapped himself hard, turned and walked out the door.

Before stepping out of the door, Father Li stopped, looked sideways at Mrs. Zhang, who was still crying bitterly on the bed, and said through gritted teeth, "From now on, the two of us will have nothing to do with each other. From tomorrow onwards, you Move this yard out for me, otherwise don't blame me for turning my face and denying people." After saying that, the old man walked out of the yard without looking back.

Li Zi'an stood at the door of the inner room and looked at Mrs. Zhang, and couldn't help but snort coldly.Seeing her looking at him with her palm prints on her face, Li Zian smiled at her and walked away.
