Siheyuan: The opening earthquake of stealing and replacing pillars
Chapter 2: Years change, people change with them
Yi Zhonghai was looking forward to everyone's response, but everyone was silent, especially He Yuzhu. He had not yet completed his role transition and did not take Yi Zhonghai's words to heart. He was standing there in a daze.
"Zhuzi, what are you thinking about? Hurry up!" Yi Zhonghai thought he was still the boss and scolded He Yuzhu.
"Ah, you are calling me!" He Yuzhu pretended to realize it later.
This made Yi Zhonghai very dissatisfied. He said angrily: "I just asked you to go find some wood. We need to build the earthquake shelter quickly. Otherwise, we won't be able to go back to the house when it rains. That will be a disaster!"
Yi Zhonghai wanted He Yuzhu to take the lead. He had realized that each household had their own little thoughts and were unwilling to take out the wood they had hidden.
You really think you are a dish!
He Yuzhu originally didn't want to move, but then he thought, instead of facing this group of people here, it would be better to find a quiet place to hide and think about what to do in the future.
After He Yuzhu left, Yi Zhonghai said, "Listen carefully, everyone. No one is allowed to enter the house now. There will definitely be aftershocks after the earthquake. All the men will follow Zhuzi to build earthquake shelters. I know that every family has wood. They were saved when the air-raid shelters were dug in 1969. Don't be reluctant to take them out. Do you understand?"
Jia Zhang knew that she didn't have any wood, but she didn't want to stay out of the matter. She was afraid that she wouldn't get any advantage, so she said with a flattering face: "Don't hide it, just take it out!"
Qin Huairu moved her mouth but didn't know what to say. Her family really didn't have any wood, and she was afraid that someone would make a fuss about it, so she looked away guiltily.
Fortunately, everyone was concerned about their own safety at this time and no one paid attention to them.
After the mobilization was done, everyone started to move. After a while, everyone left, leaving only a few people from the Jia family looking around...
After a night of hard work, everyone worked together to finally build the earthquake shelter, and each household was busy making their beds and folding their quilts.
He Yuzhu found an opportunity to go out for a walk. He had a big bump on his head, so he went to the street clinic to buy a bottle of safflower oil. He remembered that Erya's daughter was also injured and needed a few rolls of gauze.
On the way back, He Yuzhu looked at the homeless people in the alley. He felt both sympathetic and helpless. Then he thought about his own situation and could only sigh!
Since I have traveled through time, it is impossible to return to 2023. I should accept the reality. Although I have traveled through time, I still have to find a goal for myself. I can't just focus on fighting against beasts.
The current situation is still very grim, but it is also the darkness before dawn. As long as we wait a few more years, Xiaguo will usher in a new dawn and will inevitably set off a huge wave of development. By then, there will be opportunities and gold everywhere, and you can make money with your eyes closed...
As soon as he returned to the courtyard, it started to rain heavily, and He Yuzhu quickly took shelter in the earthquake shelter of his third uncle's house.
"Shazhu, where have you been?" The third uncle asked, staring at He Yuzhu's pocket.
"Nothing, just went to the street to get some medicine!"
Everyone then saw clearly that there was a big bruise on He Yuzhu's head, which must have been caused by being hit last night.
The third aunt took a look and said softly, "Just apply some safflower oil!"
In the past ten years, everyone has experienced a lot of things and many people have changed. Even the three aunts now speak in a gentle voice, and He Yuzhu feels that the pain in his forehead is not as severe.
He walked to Erya's house and asked Dani, "Does the wound still hurt?"
Dani shook her head and said, "It doesn't hurt anymore, Uncle He, your forehead is swollen, let me rub it for you!"
He Yuzhu smiled and said, "Hey, your uncle He is thick-skinned. It's okay. I just came back from the clinic and brought a few rolls of gauze. Let your mother wrap it for you!"
He took out the things, and Erya quickly stood up. She said politely, "Uncle He, how much does it cost? I'll give it to you."
"What's the matter with money? We all live in the same yard!" He Yuzhu waved his hand, then rushed into the heavy rain and ran towards the backyard.
After he left, the people in the earthquake shelter looked at each other. Everyone felt that He Yuzhu had changed, but they couldn't tell where he had changed. Anyway, they were not used to him now.
Especially the third uncle, he squinted his eyes and no one knew what he was thinking.
At this time, Yi Zhonghai was chatting with the ladies of the Jia family. When he saw He Yuzhu running in, he hurriedly asked, "Zhuzi, where have you been?"
"Go to the clinic and get some medicine!" He Yuzhu said as he shook off the rain on his body.
Qin Huairu also looked over here, but she didn't move, she was still angry.
Yesterday she had a big fight with He Yuzhu because of the Banggeng issue, and then she said some harsh words, including one that implied a breakup. Of course, this was just a threat, and she didn't think she had done anything wrong.
Qin Huairu pushed Xiaodang and motioned her to go over and help He Yuzhu apply the medicine. Xiaodang knew that the two were having a quarrel, so he walked to He Yuzhu reluctantly and said with a bitter face: "Silly uncle, let me apply the medicine for you!"
Unexpectedly, He Yuzhu waved his hand and said, "No need, I'm all sweaty! Just wipe it off yourself!"
Xiao Dang also got angry and pouted and said, "You won't let me pull it, humph!"
He Yuzhu chuckled and said nothing, just applying safflower oil on himself. He knew the character of people with the surname Jia, and none of them were easy to deal with.
Seeing this, Yi Zhonghai also guessed roughly that ever since Banggeng came back from the queue, there has been no peace in their family. He just didn't know what the reason was this time.
You say the same thing about Zhuzi. It will be fine if you just bear with it. You are already someone's father, but you don't know how to be more magnanimous. It's inevitable that people will complain in life.
"Zhu Zi, have you found out where the epicenter is?"
He Yuzhu was applying safflower oil when he said casually, "I don't know, someone said it was the area around Yingkou and Haicheng!"
Yi Zhonghai was surprised and said, "No way, Kyoto is shaking so much, it must be not far from here!"
He Yuzhu did not comment. Of course he knew it was Tangshan, but he didn't need to explain. The country is now busy with disaster relief, and we can't talk nonsense and cause trouble.
"Haha, yes!"
"Every hospital needs to build this earthquake shelter, so let's do it as soon as possible--"
As Yi Zhonghai was speaking, the oilcloth above the shed suddenly broke, and a bag of water poured onto Qin Huairu. In an instant, she became a drowned rat, because her clothes were soaked, and her plump figure was immediately revealed. He Yuzhu almost laughed out loud. This time, our masters were in for a feast for the eyes.
Sure enough, several old men swallowed their saliva silently. It was not until this moment that they understood Sha Zhu. Why was he willing to be sucked dry by the Jia family? It turned out that the welfare was hidden here! It smells so good!
He Yuzhu also stared with his eyes wide open, but Yi Zhonghai hit him with a palm-leaf fan and he instantly came back to his senses.
"Hurry up and find her some dry clothes to change into!" The old lady was still beside him, and Yi Zhonghai didn't dare to peek.
When the rain stopped, everyone was busy starting the stove again. He Yuzhu took over the cooking. Soon a big pot of delicious dishes was out of the oven. People were arranged to serve the food, and each family member put the food in a bowl. When they put the food in their mouths, they said, "Oh my god, it's so delicious."
"You're talking about this stewed cabbage, why can't others make it taste this good?"
"It really is!"
Everyone enjoyed the meal, so they praised the food generously. But He Yuzhu wanted to get rid of them as soon as possible. He really couldn't stand this kind of life in the compound.
I signed in to the system this morning. I received a total of 350 yuan in rewards yesterday, and there was also a new member gift pack. In addition to learning skills, there was also a storage space of about square meters, which was a surprise. With this thing, I will no longer be afraid of others thinking about my wallet, especially Qin Huairu's family. If they want to suck my blood again, it will be impossible.
There is no need to introduce the plot of Siheyuan in detail. I believe everyone knows that Siheyuan has changed over the past ten years. First of all, the era of the three uncles has come to an end. Now it is under the unified management of the neighborhood committee. If Yi Zhonghai wants to use moral blackmail again, no one will give him a good face.
The deaf old lady didn't survive, and after she died, she left the house to Sha Zhu. After He Yushui got married, the He family owned three houses in the courtyard. But after Banggeng came back from the production team, he and his two sisters moved into the deaf old lady's house. Banggeng worked in the cinema with Xu Damao, Xiaodang worked in the textile factory, and Huaihua was still in school, now in high school, and she would graduate in another year.
Qin Huairu is still pretty much the same as before. She keeps Sha Zhu hanging, taking what she should take and lying to him as she should, but she won't let Sha Zhu touch her at all. Her reason is that Bang Geng doesn't agree with them being together, so she lets Sha Zhu keep waiting.
On the contrary, Jia Zhang and others have become much more obedient after being taught by Qin Huairu. Perhaps it is because they are old and scared, afraid that Qin Huairu will not provide for them in their old age, so they are no longer picky like before, and sometimes even take the initiative to say nice things, like a completely different person.
Of course, this is only internally, to the outside, Old Jia is still the same Old Jia. Except for not daring to throw a tantrum, the other problems remain, especially when it comes to gossiping. She is very good at it, and most of the rumors in the courtyard come from her mouth.
Sha Zhu is exactly forty years old this year. Since he never lacks food when working in the cafeteria, his face has not changed much. But now his soul is different. He has a system that can help him make pills. When the time comes, he can take some beauty pills and maybe he can turn into that young man again.
As for Lou Xiao'e, He Yuzhu didn't have much expectations now. After all, she had been gone for so many years and there was no news from her. Even if she brought him a son, he probably wouldn't be able to accept her. There was no way. The bird's nest had been robbed, and he didn't know whether it was a foreign gun or a homemade cannon. He Yuzhu felt disgusted, so he planned to start a new life, which was to work hard to make money and then marry a flight attendant. Wouldn't that be wonderful?
He Yuzhu was fantasizing about a better life when he looked up and saw the third uncle and his family walking into the yard in a mess. Each of them was holding something in their arms, with a look of dejection on their faces, like eggplants hit by frost, wilted.
"Hey, Old Yan, what's going on?" The one who spoke was the good old man Yi Zhonghai.
The third uncle shook his head aggrievedly and said, "I, I can't say it!"
But some people couldn't stand it anymore. Li Jun on the side said angrily, "What's going on? You're still protecting your child even now! Uncle One, you don't know that just now, the second kid from Uncle Three's family, Yan Jiefang, brought his wife, brother, sister, brother-in-law, and a bunch of people to the front yard and took away all the wood of the earthquake shelter without saying a word!"
"Why?" Yi Zhonghai asked hurriedly.
"Why? They said the wood belongs to them. If you want to tear it down, you can tear it down. If you want to take it, you can take it away. No one can stop you!"
“This is too outrageous!”
"Yes!"
The more people talked, the more ashamed the Third Uncle felt. He raised his son, but he never expected that he would become such an ungrateful person.
He Yuzhu couldn't help but burst out laughing, and immediately the food in his mouth sprayed all over the floor!
"Third Uncle, you are regretting now, but it's too late. They say raising a son is a way to protect you in your old age. Look at me now, isn't it protecting you two old people?"
These words were really hurtful, and they stabbed people in the heart. Yi Zhonghai couldn't stand it anymore, so he scolded: "Zhu Zi, just say less! Don't add insult to injury!"
"How can this be called kicking someone when he's down? I'm telling the world, everyone, you see, this person shouldn't be too calculating. He calculated everything, but in the end he ended up getting himself involved. Uncle Sanye is a typical example!"
Faced with He Yuzhu's sarcasm, the third uncle did not dare to refute. After all, he was the one who did not educate his children well, and he taught by example. He could only say that all the bad consequences were his own fault. He deserved it because he brought trouble upon himself.
Everyone had long been fed up with the Third Uncle's behavior, and now that he was in trouble, they all sneered at him, and no one sympathized with him.
Yi Zhonghai said with a dark face: "What are you laughing at? It's already this time. If we don't unite, how can we get through this difficult time?"
As expected, the good old man was showing his style again. Sure enough, the next second Yi Zhonghai generously suggested that the people in the middle courtyard squeeze in and let some of the people in the front yard move in. He Yuzhu saw that Erya and her family were also there, so he didn't say anything.
Just like that, the Third Uncle and his family followed Qin Huairu to the backyard to find Xu Damao. He Yuzhu knew that they would definitely return empty-handed!
Sure enough, after a while, the group of people came back with their heads down. There was nothing they could do but squeeze together again. They couldn't let the third uncle and his friends end up on the streets!
