Siheyuan: Starting from a Truck Driver

In this world, Li Weidong and Li Kuiyong's fathers are cousins, but their families are located in the east and west of the city respectively. Li Kuiyong's father died early, causing the family to fall into trouble. And his mother is a woman with backbone. In order not to let others look at her with sympathy, she moved to the west city with her two children.

If it weren't for this chance encounter, Li Weidong would have almost forgotten that they had such a relative. When he was a child, Li Weidong used to climb trees to dig out bird nests and go fishing in the river with Li Kuiyong. The relationship between the two was very close.

Li Weidong walked forward and patted Li Kuiyong's forehead. "Do you think you are still young? Do you know what the consequences will be if your behavior is discovered?"

Li Kuiyong was too painful to get angry, he just lowered his head and stopped looking at Li Weidong. Li Weidong decided to teach Li Kuiyong a lesson. As a cousin, he couldn't watch him hanging out with those questionable people. Recalling Li Kuiyong's ending, Li Weidong realized that if he stayed with such a person, his future would be worrying.

"You were caught, and maybe you'll just suffer a little, but what about your mother and your brother? Who will take care of them? You're already that old, why don't you think more about your family?"

Li Weidong's words made Li Kuiyong feel ashamed. He lowered his head, almost burying it in his knees.

Li Weidong kept scolding until Yu Li came to find him, and then he stopped. Yu Li was relieved to know that Fatty Yu was safe and sound. She secretly observed Li Kuiyong, curious about the relationship between him and Li Weidong. Li Weidong's character would only show such excitement in front of people who care about him. Even in front of his good friend He Yuzhu, Li Weidong did not show such emotions.

"Weidong, what's going on?" Yu Li asked. Li Weidong took a sip of water, then pointed at Li Kuiyong and introduced him, "This is my cousin, Li Kuiyong." Then he shouted to Li Kuiyong, "Boy, what are you standing there for? Why don't you call someone?"

Li Kuiyong then raised his head and shouted to Yu Li, "Sister-in-law." Yu Li responded with a smile, "Hey, Kuiyong, right?" Li Kuiyong nodded, then lowered his head again, which was completely different from his frankness when they first met, making Fatty Yu next to him feel that he might have been replaced while going to the toilet.

"Okay, seeing how cowardly you look, you probably don't dare to go home. Come with me!" Li Kuiyong didn't dare to refuse and could only nod repeatedly.

After leaving the ward, Yu Li immediately asked Li Weidong about Li Kuiyong. Li Weidong did not hide anything and described the relationship between the two in detail. Yu Li then knew that there was such a relative in her family.

"It's really not easy for their family. Have you ever thought about helping them?"

Li Weidong stroked his chin and said, "I will help, but this guy's personality is like my aunt's. I have to find a way to make him accept it. Don't worry about it. I'll settle the bill with your cousin later. He has no money. I have to go to the market to buy some vegetables."

"Okay, then be careful on the road." "Got it!"

After parting with Yu Li, Li Weidong did not go directly to the market. He also needed to visit Zheng Juan and Zheng Guangming. He had been on a business trip for a week. Someone from Yu Li's side had notified him, but Zheng Juan had not. Zheng Guangming's surgery should have been completed. Li Weidong wanted to know how his recovery was going. As the two hospitals were far apart, it took Li Weidong half an hour to get there.

When he entered the ward, Zheng Juan was feeding Zheng Guangming, who was wrapped in gauze. Hearing footsteps, Zheng Juan turned around and found that it was Li Weidong, and a trace of joy flashed across her face.

"Brother, when did you come back?" "Today. How did you know I was on a business trip?"

"You said before that the factory often has urgent tasks. If you haven't come for a long time, you must be on a business trip."

Li Weidong patted his head and said, "Look at my memory!"

Then, he turned to look at Zheng Guangming: "Guangming, how do you feel now?"

Zheng Guangming was very happy to learn that it was Li Weidong, because he regarded Li Weidong as a great benefactor. He was very smart and had vaguely guessed the relationship between his sister Zheng Juan and Li Weidong.

Li Weidong felt a little uncomfortable, but the doctor said that he was recovering well and the bandage would be removed in a few days. He said to Zheng Guangming, "I'm so happy. After you are discharged from the hospital, I will take you to Peking University and the Forbidden City." Zheng Guangming was very happy and thanked Li Weidong gratefully. Li Weidong smiled and touched his head. The two chatted for a while until Zheng Juan got up to wash the dishes, and Li Weidong followed her.

As soon as he entered the bathroom, Zheng Juan turned around and hugged Li Weidong, and leaned her head on his chest, saying gratefully: "Brother, you left me, I missed you so much!" This was the first time Li Weidong saw Zheng Juan take the initiative. He was stunned for a moment, then gently comforted her: "This mission came very suddenly, I didn't have time to tell you, it's my fault."

Zheng Juan hugged him tighter, and she said to him with a choked voice: "Now that you are back, nothing else matters." Li Weidong was deeply moved. If there was polygamy, he would definitely keep Zheng Juan by his side. It was rare to have such a woman who followed him wholeheartedly.

After the hug, the two separated without going any further. Considering the occasion and time, they both kept their self-control. Zheng Guangming was standing outside the door, and his hearing was very sensitive. They didn't want him to hear anything.

After they sorted out their clothes, they left. Yu Li asked, "You were gone for so long, what did you buy?"

"Hey, I ran into an acquaintance on the way and chatted for a while. I bought a chicken and a fish. I'll make the scallion chicken later, and you can just help me steam the fish."

"It seems that we have run out of ginger at home. I forgot about it and it's too late to buy more now. I think you'd better go to He Yuzhu to borrow some."

"That's a good idea. You can take your things in first."

Li Weidong handed the items in his hand to Yu Li, and she went to He Yuzhu's home.

When I walked to the door, I found it was locked. Just as I was about to turn around and leave, a soft voice came from behind me:

"Brother Weidong, are you here to see my brother?"

Li Weidong turned around and saw that it was He Yushui. He smiled and nodded: "Yes, my family has run out of ginger. I wonder if you have any."

After hearing this, He Yushui immediately responded: "I understand, wait here for a moment, I'll go see if you have any."

She turned back to the house and reappeared with a key in her hand. This was the spare key that He Yuzhu had reserved for her in case she forgot to bring her key when she went out.

He Yushui also gave He Yuzhu a key, so that if they both didn't forget to bring their keys at the same time, there wouldn't be any problems. While she was taking the ginger, Li Weidong couldn't help but ask, "By the way, where is your brother? He got off work a long time ago, why hasn't he come back yet?"

He Yuzhu has never been very dedicated to his work. He often leaves work early, leaving the work to Fatty and Ma Hua, and runs away. He Yushui said helplessly: "He went to see his future wife Han Zhizhi. You know, since that matter was settled, he usually doesn't come back. During this period, I have to solve the dinner problem by myself."

Li Weidong smiled softly. This was indeed something He Yuzhu would do. He noticed that the stove in the house was not hot, so he kindly suggested, "Why don't you come to my house for something to eat?"

He Yushui shook her head and refused: "No need, I've already eaten in the cafeteria." She handed Li Weidong some ginger slices.

"Thank you, Rain."

"Don't be polite when we're family. Just go about your business. I think you have guests at home."

"Okay then, let's talk sometime."

"Okay, bye."

After leaving He's house, Li Weidong returned to his own home. As soon as he entered the door, he saw Fatty Yu and Li Kuiyong studying his crystal radio. When they heard the footsteps, they immediately turned their heads at the same time, and when they saw Li Weidong, they immediately sat up straight and acted serious.

Li Weidong smiled lightly and said, "Okay, stop acting in front of me. Let's talk things out while my wife is cooking." He turned to Fatty Yu and asked, "That was indeed a conspiracy between you and Kui Yong, right?" Fatty Yu nodded in acknowledgement.

Then, Li Weidong turned to Li Kuiyong and said, "Kuiyong, you said you are Xiao**'s friend. Let me ask you, who is closer to you, him or me?"

Li Kuiyong lowered his head and said in a low voice: "Of course it's you."

"Since you said so, then there's no problem. I don't ask you to help me teach him a lesson, as long as you can stay out of it and not take sides, is that too much to ask?"

"Not at all."

Li Weidong knocked on the table: "Remember what you said, if I see you hanging out with him again, I won't forgive you."

Li Kuiyong did not answer. If this was not Li Weidong's product, he would probably help Xiao**. But now he and his cousin have become enemies because of the instigation of outsiders, which is really unacceptable. If his mother knew, he might have to kneel by the bed all night. According to the established rules, he still needs to go to Xiao** himself to seek justice.

Li Weidong did not mention this matter, indicating that he did not want to embarrass Li Kuiyong. But he was still not at ease. He knew Li Kuiyong's personality, he was easily impulsive and emotional, so he decided to add a little more protection.

"What is your current job?"

Li Kuiyong scratched his head and pretended not to take it seriously, saying, "Nothing, just messing around."

Li Weidong shook his head: "No, I will help you find a job."

Li Kuiyong was somewhat tempted, after all, he was not the only child in his family. As he got older, he realized that he might not be able to work for a long time, and he had come up with a solution to help his family share the responsibilities of the family. But it is not easy to find a job nowadays, and he even considered taking over his mother's tricycle business, after all, he is still young and strong, and should be able to make more money.

Unexpectedly, his cousin would help him, which gave him hope in his predicament. It is common for relatives to help each other. He didn't want to trouble Li Weidong, but his younger brothers and sisters still needed care.
