Siheyuan: Starting from 1952

Chen's mother's health was so bad that his father finally noticed it.

At first he thought it was just some random illness.

He shouted at Chen's mother to get treatment as soon as possible.

But when he found out that Chen's mother would probably only live for a few days, he was completely stunned.

It took me a long time to come back to my senses.

He grasped Chen's mother's hand somewhat stiffly and said, "It shouldn't be like that, right? It should be treatable, right? Come on, I'll take you to get treated. I'll take you to get this disease cured."

“No need, Lao Chen.”

Chen Ming broke free from his father's hand and said, "If it could be cured, I would have gone for it a long time ago. It really can't be cured."

"Impossible... This is impossible..." Father Chen's body began to tremble. "You have never suffered any hardship in your life, how could... how could you get such a fatal disease?"

"Life is unpredictable... But you're right, I really haven't suffered much in this life. Thank you, Lao Chen."

Chen's mother is now very open-minded.

During the last period of his life, his daughter came back to accompany him.

She was also accompanied by her own grandson.

She was satisfied.

Father Chen still couldn't accept it. He asked in a questioning tone: "Why...why didn't you tell me earlier? Why did you hide it from me?"

Chen Xueru interrupted, "Dad, if you were more careful and cared more about my mom, you would have discovered that she was sick, but you didn't, so what's the point of telling you earlier?"

"I……"

Father Chen lowered his head in self-blame.

Now he finally understood what Lu Juemin meant by what he had said before.

Yes!

In fact, everything has a traceable path.

Whether it was Lu Juemin’s reminder or Chen Xueru’s sudden move back home.

If he had been able to pay a little more attention, he wouldn't have known the truth until now.

him at the moment.

Endless regret filled my heart.

If I could do it again.

He will never focus all his energy on work.

Actually, if you think about it carefully, what’s the point of making so much money?

Life does not bring it, death does not bring it.

And he couldn't even save his wife's life.

failure.

It's really a failed life.

Since this day.

Father Chen became a completely different person.

I keep my head down every day, as if I am living in endless self-blame.

A few days later.

Mother Chen eventually passed away.

Lu Juemin rushed over from Sijiu City to attend the funeral.

At this time, Chen's father said to Lu Juemin: "Juemin, I am ready to hand over all my business to you, are you willing?"

"give it to me?"

Lu Juemin was shocked. "Dad, what do you want me to do? Are you not going to do it anymore?"

"Quit."

Father Chen shook his head. "It's just like that after all. I'm going to spend the next few days enjoying life!"

"The future is short, there is no need to waste it on this meaningless work!"

Got it!

Lu Juemin finally figured it out.

Father Chen gained enlightenment because of Mother Chen’s death!

Actually that's right.

There is no end to making money.

It is completely understandable that he would think this way and make this choice.

As for taking over his business...

Don't say it.

Lu Juemin was still quite willing.

After all, doing foreign trade in this era is like blocking water from a crack in a glass bowl.

The benefits are really self-evident.

So Lu Juemin agreed.

At worst, the worst that can happen is that I will just have to travel between Beijing and Guangzhou.

Just put in a little more effort.

He is still young.

Energy is something that is inexhaustible.

that's it.

From then on, Lu Juemin had a new identity...

……

Ever since He Yuzhu and Qin Huairu got married, He Daqing no longer cared about anything and began to pursue Liu Lan with all his strength.

In fact, Liu Lan knew He Daqing's idea a long time ago.

But facing He Daqing's pursuit, she was actually quite resistant.

After all, she is a serious virgin.

And who is He Daqing?

He is an old man who is almost fifty years old.

Although he is the chef of the steel mill.

Can make a lot of money every month.

But it couldn't change her mind.

The reason why she never explicitly refused was naturally that she just wanted to get the benefits that He Daqing could give her.

As for having anything to do with He Daqing, she didn't want to.

But after she broke up with He Yuzhu, she has always held a grudge against He Yuzhu.

At this time, she faced He Daqing's pursuit again.

An idea suddenly occurred to her.

That is to agree to He Daqing's pursuit.

In this way, she can take revenge on He Yuzhu.

She even began to look forward to the expression on He Yuzhu's face when he called her stepmother.

For this reason.

Liu Lan agreed to He Daqing's pursuit.

This made He Daqing very happy.

I thought it was my own personal charm!

The affairs between the two people soon spread to the courtyard.

Such explosive news.

Naturally, this caused an uproar in the courtyard again.

"Oh my god, He Daqing is really amazing! He's so old, but he can still find a young girl to marry!"

"I don't know what this little girl is thinking. She should be younger than Shazhu, right?"

"What else can I think? If He Daqing comes to me, I'll be willing to do it! He Daqing is the chef in the factory, and he earns 70 to 80 yuan a month. If I follow He Daqing, I won't have to go hungry anymore. Do you understand?"

"..."

It can be seen that the residents in the courtyard are trying to understand why Liu Lan is with He Daqing.

But this matter reached He Yuzhu's ears.

He immediately became furious and exploded completely.

The first time he heard about this, he went to find He Daqing.

He questioned him: "He Daqing, is this the reason why you didn't let me marry Liu Lan? Are you still my father in this state? Are you disgusting?"

Facing He Yuzhu's questioning, He Daqing looked calm, "Zhuzi, do you remember our agreement? I promised you to marry Qin Huairu, and you can't be angry about what I did in the future, so now, why are you yelling at me?"

"you!!"

He Yuzhu was speechless for a moment.

It's really humiliating to see my father like this.

How could I have such a father?

He forcibly suppressed the anger in his heart, and then choked: "It seems that you know how excessive what you did is. You made me not angry in advance. Haha, forget it, I'll give you a woman like that. I don't care. I'm very happy now! I'm especially happy to be with Huairu!"

"Dad, I hope you and Liu Lan can be happy too! Come on!"

After saying all these words, He Yuzhu left.

He Yuzhu has actually been quite restrained.

Just now he really wanted to tell He Daqing directly that he wanted to sever the father-son relationship.

But something in his nature stopped him.

soon.

He Daqing and Liu Lan held a wedding banquet.

At the wedding banquet.

Liu Lan walked up to He Yuzhu with a clear purpose, looked at him with a smirk, and asked, "He Yuzhu, what should you call me now?"

When He Yuzhu heard Liu Lan's question, his face turned red.

No matter what.

Liu Lan was also the person he was going to marry before.

Although he and Qin Huairu are living a good life now.

But those memories of the past couldn't help but surface in my mind.

Call someone you're married to "mom".

He was really in great pain.

But facing the guests, he could only grit his teeth and yell, "Mom..."

When Liu Lan heard this word from He Yuzhu's mouth, a smile broke out on her face.

The resentful heart was finally relieved.

Cool!

It feels so damn good!

only……

What happens after the fun?

What happens after letting He Yuzhu call herself mom?

It's time to face life...

It turns out.

Although He Daqing treated her well, she and He Daqing had basically nothing in common due to the huge age difference between them.

The two of them had just gotten married, but they were living like they had been married for decades.

Only then did Liu Lan know.

There is no point in taking revenge on your own.

Especially watching the scene of He Yuzhu and Qin Huairu being happy together.

It made her regret even more.

Her behavior.

Rather than taking revenge on He Yuzhu, he was actually punishing himself.

Just my own conditions.

Wouldn’t it be nice to marry someone of the same age as you?

Gradually.

She lost all interest in the marriage.

She even proposed divorce to He Daqing.

But how could He Daqing agree to a divorce?

He also thought that Liu Lan would take care of him when he was old!

He Daqing did not agree to divorce.

Don't choose to let yourself go.

Gradually.

Liu Lan had some ideas in her mind.

I've married such an old man.

Then you must never treat yourself badly in life.

She began to change her lifestyle.

The daily millet porridge and vegetable stem soup could no longer satisfy her.

He started clamoring for good food and meat.

Food is nothing.

Later she wanted to wear better clothes, so she bought all kinds of cloth to make new clothes.

If there were no cloth coupons, she would ask He Daqing to go to the Pigeon Market to find a solution.

Even to the end.

Liu Lan also asked He Daqing for a radio.

It is said that this can cultivate one's sentiments.

After Liu Lan's trouble.

He Daqing spends all his monthly salary.

He Daqing couldn't bear it anymore.

He began to persuade Liu Lan to save some money.

Liu Lan retorted, "Why did you marry me if you can't afford me? If you want me to be frugal, then just divorce me! If you divorce me, you won't have to spend any money! That way you can save money!"

He Daqing: "..."

He was simply speechless.

How can I find a wife here? I'm just finding a boy who spends money lavishly!

And as time goes by.

Liu Lan's appetite is also growing.

It was so big that He Daqing's salary could not meet Liu Lan's requirements.

He Daqing collapsed.

But Liu Lan was relentless, "If your salary is not enough, go ask your son for it!"

Liu Lan is now a little crazy.

If he himself is not living comfortably, He Yuzhu can't expect to be comfortable either.

So she said this.

He Daqing also thought this was a good idea.

He raised He Yuzhu to this age, and it’s time for him to give something in return.

that's it.

He Daqing found He Yuzhu and asked him to give him some money as a gift.

Hearing what He Daqing said, before He Yuzhu could even speak, Qin Huairu was unhappy, "Dad, our lives are difficult too, and we don't have any extra money to give you!"

"Do you have a say?"

He Daqing glared at Qin Huairu and continued, "Zhu Zi, you are my son. It is natural for a son to respect his father. If you don't give me the money, then you are unfilial!"

"So you decide for yourself!"

All I can say is that He Daqing played an excellent game of moral blackmail.

After hearing this, He Yuzhu really had no choice.

I could only grit my teeth and ask, "How much do you want?"

"No more, no more!"

He Daqing raised two fingers and said, "Just give me twenty yuan a month from now on!"

"Twenty? Do you want us to live?" He Yuzhu shouted directly: "Dad, my monthly salary is less than fifty yuan, and Huairu has also stopped working because of her pregnancy. You are going to take away half of her time. How are you going to let Huairu and I live? Don't forget that Huairu is pregnant with your grandson! Don't you want your grandson to come into this world fat and white?"

He Daqing paused after hearing this, then retracted a finger and said, "Forget it, it seems that you are really in trouble. In this case, you should give me ten yuan every month from now on!"

"it is good……"

He Yuzhu gritted his teeth and agreed.

Ten dollars is a lot.

But at least it's within my tolerance range.

After He Yuzhu gave the money to He Daqing and He Daqing left, Qin Huairu began to cry.

She was very dissatisfied and said, "Zhu Zi, your father wants ten yuan every month. Does that mean I can't eat meat often?"

She said so, but in fact, when He Yuzhu was at work, she would take out the good things that Yi Zhonghai gave her and eat them all by herself.

His days.

Living a very good life!

The ten dollars that He Yuzhu gave He Daqing had basically no impact on his life.

The reason why she was dissatisfied.

I just feel that He Yuzhu's things are mine.

If you give it to others.

That's equivalent to stealing your own things.

Even if the other person is He Yuzhu's father, it won't work.

Facing Qin Huairu's question, He Yuzhu could only assure her: "Don't worry, Huairu, I will never treat you unfairly in life! No way!"

However, He Yuzhu still underestimated the shamelessness of He Daqing.

Or maybe he didn't know how big Liu Lan's appetite was behind the scenes.

What we agreed upon at the beginning was indeed ten dollars a month.

But later He Daqing came to ask for things again under various pretexts.

One particularly outrageous incident happened when He Yuzhu had just received his public grain tax, but He Daqing took it back to his home.

Even if He Yuzhu could be patient.

He couldn't bear it anymore.

this day.

When He Daqing came to He Yuzhu again to ask for something, He Yuzhu said directly: "I will not give you money, nor will I give you anything!"

"You won't give it to me? Are you going to be an unfilial son?"

"Correct!"

He Yuzhu nodded and said very seriously: "I am going to be an unfilial son. Not only will I be an unfilial son, but I will also sever ties with you. From now on, you, He Daqing, are no longer my father!"

"..."
