Siheyuan: I can always stay out of it

The comrades from the subdistrict office were efficient and quick in their work. They said what needed to be said and then left.

The people in the courtyard did not rush back, but discussed in groups of three or four. After all, there was a lack of entertainment in that era, and if there was a good topic, they naturally had to chat outside for a while.

Among them were the two managers, Liu Haizhong and Yan Bugui. Obviously, neither of them had any intention of letting everyone go back to rest early. They themselves were more gossipy than the residents of the courtyard.

Compared to other people, the Jia family didn't have that kind of interest. Banggeng had been suffering from vomiting and diarrhea recently. He went to the hospital and got some medicine but there was no improvement. According to the doctor, he was infected with some kind of bacterial dysentery.

Anyway, Qin Huairu had never heard of this disease, but she had to follow the doctor's instructions and have Banggeng hospitalized.

As for the reasons, Qin Huairu also knew something about them. Chen Xu's words were still vivid in her mind, but she did not expect that the flood would be so deadly if drunk. However, when she thought of the garbage left on the ground after the flood receded, she felt it was natural.

There's no way this water is drinkable.

Qin Huairu was angry at the child's disobedience and worried about her son's health. She had no mood to chat with others. She just told Qin Jingru and rushed to the hospital.

There are two adults in the family, and now one of them has to go to the hospital to accompany Banggeng, and still has to go to work during the day. Qin Huairu feels that she can't hold on any longer.

She had never felt the pain of having no man in the family as much as she did now.

She is not short of money now, but the Jia family lacks a pillar. If it were not for the help of her cousin Qin Jingru, Qin Huairu would have wanted to die.

As for whether Jia Zhang's labor reform would bring disaster to the Jia family in the future, she couldn't care less about it now. She couldn't even solve the problems at hand, so who would have the mood to care about the future?

Today is Sunday, and Chen Xu is cleaning the dust under the eaves with a broom tied to a stick.

The sound of two little girls chatting came from far away. One of them looked very familiar, it was Yu Shui, and the other one looked very unfamiliar.

Chen Xu turned around and looked over, a little surprised. Yu Haitang?

Why did this girl come to the Siheyuan?

Chen Xu knew that Yu Shui and Yu Haitang were classmates, but their relationship didn’t seem to be very good, just average.

"Brother Chen."

Yu Shui called for help obediently. This girl used to roll her eyes when she saw him, but now she will take the initiative to call for help!

The little girl's thoughts were somewhat difficult to understand, so Chen Xu didn't take it seriously.

"on vacation?"

"Well, I brought my classmates back to play."

Yu Haitang, who was standing next to him, almost lit up when she saw Chen Xu. She knew Chen Xu. Her parents also worked in the steel mill and often talked about Chen Xu. She had also heard Yu Shui talk about some rumors about Chen Xu.

The only pity was that Chen Xu got married, which made Yu Haitang upset for a long time.

Now seeing the real person, it is obvious that the Chen Xu described by his parents is more handsome. More importantly, Chen Xu has too many halos, which makes him a perfect son-in-law for Haitang.

What a pity! Yu Haitang has already memorized the poem in her mind.

You were born before I was born, but I was already old after you were born...

Chen Xu nodded politely to Yu Haitang and continued with his work.

Yu Shui, who was standing by, was about to leave, but when she saw Yu Haitang staring at Chen Xu's back without blinking, she immediately held her forehead with her hand. How could she not know that her classmate was also a fangirl...

Isn't it just a little more handsome and capable...

As she thought about it, Yu Shui suddenly felt that it made sense that Yu Haitang was attracted to Chen Xu. Why didn't she realize that this man was so good before?

In the past, her relationship with Chen Xu could only be described as bad. Yu Shui still remembered that look of disdain. She didn't even have time to hate him, so how could she care whether Chen Xu was handsome or not.

Besides, Chen Xu really didn't look like a human being two years ago. No one looks good when he is skinny.

But after Yu Shui was taken to the hospital by Chen Xu due to a high fever last time, her attitude towards Chen Xu immediately took a 180-degree turn.

People are like this. If they like someone, they like him or her no matter how you look at him or her. If they don't like someone, they find him or her annoying no matter how you look at him or her. This is also the reason why Yu Shui's attitude towards Chen Xu has changed. So now she looks at Chen Xu differently, but she herself has not noticed it.

"Let's go..."

Yu Shui at least remembered to go see his father, so he took Yu Haitang and ran away.

"Do you have to be so crazy..."

"Then there is..."

The two little girls acted as if Chen Xu didn't exist and played around as they walked towards the deaf old lady.

Chen Xu didn't take it seriously. Yu Haitang was not his type. Not to mention that he already had Lin Chan, even if he didn't, he wouldn't choose a wife like Yu Haitang. He might as well choose Princess Taiping Yu Shui or Yu Li instead of her.

Yu Haitang is too eccentric, snobbish, speaks in an unpleasant way, and is too utilitarian. Her sister Yu Li is much better than her. In Chen Xu's eyes, Yu Li is a good wife and mother.

On weekends, He Daqing would have dinner with Li Xiulan at the deaf old lady's place. Chen Xu knew this habit very well, as he had encountered it many times.

Chen Xu didn't quite understand He Daqing's thoughts. He didn't understand why this guy took care of the deaf old lady more than Yi Zhonghai, but he didn't meddle in other people's business. Maybe he respected the elderly and loved the young...

Although no one believes this reason.

Yu Haitang didn't come here just to accompany Yu Shui to play, but she had a purpose.

A matchmaker came to introduce a guy to her sister Yu Li, but they haven't met yet.

After learning that it was someone from Hongxing Siheyuan, Yu Haitang immediately thought of Yu Shui, so he volunteered to come and inquire about the situation.

After all, the matchmaker's words are deceitful, and if she meets someone who gives a lot of money, she will definitely say a few nice words.

Chinese characters are profound and extensive. The meaning of a sentence may be completely different if you change the tone. The most annoying thing is that you may not be able to tell what the other person said is wrong.

Yu Shui didn’t know much about Yan Jiecheng, and she was not that familiar with the people in the Siheyuan, but Yu Haitang wanted to come and see him in person first.

In fact, the two girls came here last night, but Chen Xu didn't know about it. He didn't leave the courtyard all day, so he naturally didn't know what happened in the middle courtyard.

Yan Jiecheng saw it and behaved in a proper manner. Yu Haitang couldn't be said to be disgusted. Her mission was accomplished, so she simply accompanied Yu Shui for a day.

But Yu Haitang was a little confused during the meal.

What He Yushui didn't dare to say, He Daqing and the deaf old lady didn't have so many scruples. Knowing that Yu Haitang was helping her sister find a marriage partner, they told the truth directly.

Yu Haitang then realized that the Yan family eats radishes by the root...

The two of them didn't have any psychological burden at all. This was the situation of the Yan family. Couldn't they let others tell the truth?

Do you think I have to tell you that you have a lot of fish and meat at home just because you are so stingy?

Sorry, He Daqing and the deaf old lady said that our relationship is not that good.

Maybe they were planning to make fun of the Yan family. Looking at the way Yu Haitang dressed up, one could tell that the Yu family should be in good condition. In the eyes of these two people, the Yan family was a real pit of fire.

Of course, even if most people knew about this kind of thing, they wouldn't talk about it casually. After all, breaking up someone's marriage is like killing their parents. But who made this a courtyard full of birds?
