Siheyuan: A journey of mountains and rivers

Yi Zhonghai shouted again: "Silly Zhu."

He Yuzhu heard it, but pretended not to hear it.

Yi Zhonghai was so angry that he walked over quickly. He was the boss of everyone in the hospital, and people would look at him whenever he spoke to anyone.

But He Yuzhu pretended not to hear and just kept doing his own thing, which made Yi Zhonghai very angry.

"Silly Zhu, now that you're back, you don't even recognize your uncle?"

Yi Zhonghai walked straight up to He Yuzhu and confronted him.

He Yuzhu stopped what he was doing and his eyes suddenly widened, as if he was surprised that Yi Zhonghai was here too.

"Master?"

Seeing He Yuzhu's reaction, Yi Zhonghai's expression did not ease.

"You just spoke to me?"

He Yuzhu continued to play dumb. He didn't care about Yi Zhonghai's expression. The best thing was to piss the old man off to death.

"I called you idiot several times, didn't you hear me?"

Yi Zhonghai is famous for his loud voice. Could it be that He Yuzhu, a 15-year-old energetic young man, couldn't hear him?

Are you just pretending to be stupid here?

But this doesn't work for Yi Zhonghai.

He Yuzhu was not panicked, and said with a smile: "Uncle, you also know that I work outside. Although I am just an apprentice, people still respect me. No one has ever called me Shazhu."

"Everyone called me Zhuzi because I just came back. I'm not used to this kind of bad name. I think it's an insult no matter how I hear it, so I naturally ignored it."

After He Yuzhu finished speaking, Yi Zhonghai exploded.

"Okay, you admit it, but you don't want to pay attention to me even though you heard it."

This old guy blamed him for his impolite words.

"Silly Zhu, that's just insulting. Can't I just ignore it?"

He Yuzhu looked at the old man speechlessly.

Yi Zhonghai was even more enraged, pointing at He Yuzhu's nose and scolding: "You heartless thing, I scold you, everyone in the hospital calls you Shazhu, and you are unwilling to do it after I call you twice?"

He Yuzhu will not tolerate such people being so confident when scolding others.

"So you didn't even call me by my name, and then you ignored me when I called me a name I didn't like to hear, and you're still not happy?" He Yuzhu smiled gently.

Looking at Yi Zhonghai's angry face, he asked, "Silly old man, can you also respond to me?"

"Silly Zhu, you've become so arrogant since you went out. I actually called you a stupid old man."

What a villain! The officials are allowed to set fires but the common people are not allowed to light lamps.

Yi Zhonghai pointed at He Yuzhu and his fingers began to tremble in anger.

He Yuzhu looked at Yi Zhonghai and had no intention of working anymore.

He folded his hands and said indifferently: "Uncle, what you said is true. If Shazhu is a title, then what kind of old man is it?"

"Let's just say that you don't want to be called "silly" in front of your name. Do you think I am willing to do that?"

He Yuzhu actually said something to him again.

Yi Zhonghai never expected to be criticized twice in a row.

Yi Zhonghai is a hypocrite after all, and he did not really fall out with He Yuzhu.

Then he said, "Zhu Zi, you can't blame me for this. I have followed your father He Daqing in calling you Stupid Zhu for so many years. Is it easy for me to change my words?"

Isn't this easy?

He Yuzhu didn't say it.

But he looked at Yi Zhonghai and said, "I have nothing to do with my father now. Yu Shui and I are living on our own. Do I still have to listen to him calling me by my name?"

"If I tell people the name Shazhu, they will probably think there is something wrong with me, which will affect others."

"You are an old man too. Don't you know how to speak properly?"

After being scolded by He Yuzhu several times in a row, Yi Zhonghai was in a bad mood.

But a hypocrite like him would never show his emotions in front of He Yuzhu even if he tried to suppress them.

He also said with a smile: "Zhu Zi, you are right. At my age, I am sometimes really confused."

After saying that, he looked at He Yuzhu's unhappy face and cursed in his heart: "You bastard, you deserve to be abandoned by your shameless father."

But he said hypocritically: "Our Zhuzi has grown up and needs to save face. I will definitely talk to the people in the courtyard when the time comes. I may not call you Shazhu anymore in the future."

He Yuzhu also knew this kind of sarcasm.

He also deliberately agreed.

"I've worked so hard for a long time."

After he finished speaking, seeing Yi Zhonghai still looking at him, he asked, "Uncle, you haven't finished what you are saying yet?"

“The rain is back too?”

"Ah."

He Yuzhu said: "I have to bring Yushui back to visit my mother during the Chinese New Year, but I don't have much money, and I don't have anything prepared at home. I can't let Yushui starve with me, so I still have to go back to the restaurant at night."

Yi Zhonghai breathed a sigh of relief when he heard He Yuzhu's words.

You know, he had promised He Yuzhu before that if He Yuzhu had any difficulties, he could come to him.

As an elder in this courtyard, looking at these two children, is there any reason for me not to help them?

What's more, it's New Year's Day. If he doesn't help, wouldn't he be slapping himself in the face?

Now He Yuzhu said it himself that he still wanted to go back. The old man felt relieved after hearing it.

"It's good to go back. The food in the restaurant is more abundant just after the New Year. I guess there will be more people working there, so it will be lively then."

Yi Zhonghai spoke in high-sounding words.

In fact, he was just afraid that the two siblings would stay in the yard and take things from his house.

He Yuzhu saw what the old man was thinking, but he didn't say anything. He smiled and nodded and said, "Yes, Yushui and I both like it there."

But seeing that Yi Zhonghai still didn't leave, he asked again: "Uncle, do you have anything else to say?"

Yi Zhonghai showed dissatisfaction when he saw He Yuzhu's expression of driving away the guests.

He Yuzhu immediately said, "Uncle, didn't you also tell me to cherish this opportunity to be an apprentice? I really do cherish it, too."

"Master gave me a special leave so that I could come back and clean up. I dare not delay. If I go back later, Master will have a bad impression of me, and I am afraid that I will not have the chance to have dinner with Yushui."

When I heard He Yuzhu complain that he might go hungry, it seemed that things were not going well outside.

Yi Zhonghai was in a bad mood before, but he felt much better instantly.

He just hoped that He Yuzhu would suffer more outside. The more suffering he suffered, the more beneficial it would be for him.

It would be much easier to get He Yuzhu to my side at that time.

But he still looked concerned as he said, "It's not easy to work outside, especially since you're still just an apprentice. Just bear with it. I won't bother you anymore. Think it over carefully."

Seeing the old man leave, He Yuzhu rolled his eyes.

It is not up to this old man to teach him what he wants.
