Siheyuan: Five mouths waiting for food at the beginning

"Who said I was waiting for Liu Guangqi? I just ate too much this afternoon and took a walk to digest the food."

"Third uncle, if you want to digest food, I advise you not to do it. You are so skinny that you are just skin and bones. Be careful that people who go for a walk may die. Second uncle just left, and you are thinking of accompanying him?"

"Hey, you idiot, you are such a dog that you can't even spit out ivory. You're really making me so mad."

"No, don't be angry. If you get mad at me, I'm afraid those ungrateful people in your family will get on with you. You should just take a walk and see you later."

"I'm so angry, I'm so angry, Shazhu, you bastard, you are not even worthy of being a human being." The third uncle yelled at Shazhu's back.

"Okay, come in quickly." Auntie pulled Uncle back home.

"You know who Shazhu is. He has been a scoundrel since he was young. He has offended so many people with his mouth. Even women like us may not be able to win over him.

Besides, I don't know you. Besides being angry because you've been plotted against, you can also be irritated by a few words. Go wash your feet to get rid of the cold and go to bed early."

"Isn't this just for show to the people in the compound? Otherwise, who would respect me as a third uncle? After I retired, the attitude of the people in the compound towards me changed.

If I get bullied by the younger generation again, where will I put my old face?"

"You're right. Ever since the position of the manager was abolished, those women no longer take me, the third aunt, seriously. In the past, there were still people trying to curry favor with me, but now they can't even get any money from me."

The third aunt sighed and brought the third uncle some water for washing feet.

"Alas, there is nothing we can do. Times have changed. Look how powerful Old Yi was back then, but now he is still keeping a low profile."

"We are not even living as well as Lao Yi. Lao Yi has finally found a new partner. Look how filial Ma Dongmei is to Lao Yi.

Look at us, those guys earn a lot every month, but they come home empty-handed and want to take everything away when they leave. What sin have I committed? My three sons are all ungrateful."

"Alas, I have been a teacher for my whole life, but I was not educated well by my own children. It's a shame. But this problem can be solved soon."

"Old man, have you figured out a solution?"

"No, I can't figure it out, but Shanhe promised me that he would find a way for me. I guess he will come to me in the next two days."

"It would be great if the third brother of the Zhao family was our son. Look how good he is to his stepmother Chen Lanlan, how good must he be to his biological mother?

The second and third sons all work under him. If he speaks, maybe they will listen. Old man, how much pension do you think we will need when the time comes?"

"I don't know. Let's see what Shanhe says. I think you should go and light the stove now. I feel particularly cold tonight."

As soon as Sha Zhu entered the room, he saw Ma Dongmei sitting by the stove sewing shoe soles. There was no change in her expression, probably because she hadn't noticed the passbook.

"I'm back. I just poured water for washing feet when I heard the third uncle scolding you. How did you offend him?"

"Oh, it's okay. I just made a few jokes with Uncle San. Uncle San was just joking.

But this uncle is amazing. It was so cold, but he was still waiting at the door for Liu Guangqi to come back and laugh at him. "

"Okay, there's hot water in the kettle, hurry up and soak your feet. Don't get frostbite in this cold weather.

besides……"

When Sha Zhu heard the next two words, he twitched all over, thinking that Ma Dongmei had discovered about the passbook.

In the end, Ma Dongmei said, "Also, can you control your mouth? I have been saying this about you for many years. I have been saying this since we got the marriage certificate.

The third uncle is your elder after all, you should at least show him some respect. There aren't many families in the courtyard now, are you planning to offend everyone?

Look at your broken mouth. How many people in the hospital still care about you? Sooner or later, they will be pissed off by you."

"Okay, I get it. I'm used to it. I blurt out the words right when they come to my lips. I'll be more careful next time."

"I really don't know who you look like. Your father-in-law doesn't like to talk much, but why do you have such a foul mouth? Fortunately, He Dong worked hard and didn't learn your foul mouth habit."

"It's all because of you, my wife, who educated me well. My son is a college student. He is much better than Xu Damao's son. Xu Damao has to bow down to me when he sees me."

"Why are you so sweet today? You usually say your son is not like you, but you scold me ten times for every word I say. What did you do wrong today? Or have you changed your temper?"

"Shanhe asked me to go drink, what bad things can I do? You said I have a foul mouth, I admit that.

My son is indeed unlike me in this respect. All the neighbors praise my son, even Shanhe always praises him.

You used my son as a positive example to educate Xu Sheng. You don't know how ugly Xu Damao's face is. How can I not say nice things about you? It's because you educated your son well."

"Jie Jie"

"Okay, stop laughing like an idiot. It sounds scary, but I'm quite satisfied with your explanation.

Zhuzi, do you have anything else to tell me?"

"No, I don't have anything to do. I'll go to bed after I finish soaking my feet. I drank a lot today and I feel a little dizzy."

"Tell me, how much money did you withdraw?"

"How much money was withdrawn?"

"Zhu Zi, I'm giving you a good face, right? Go on pretending." Ma Dongmei stopped stroking her shoes and stood up, pointing at the silly Zhu Zi.

Sha Zhu smiled and said with a playful face, "Wife, you already know everything. Don't be angry. Sit down first and listen to me slowly explain it to you."

"Tell me, where is the passbook? How much money did you withdraw? Where is the money?"

"this and that……"

"Don't say this or that. If you don't explain clearly tonight, don't even think about sleeping on the kang. You can sleep wherever you want."

"My son has grown up now. He has no place to live when he comes back and has to squeeze in with our father. It's still okay now. But where would he live if he brought a partner back?

Didn’t we discuss this some time ago? I’m thinking about buying a house for my son.”

"You didn't even discuss this big thing with me. We've only saved that little money over the years.

That's not right. Didn't you go drinking with Shanhe and the others? How could you have time to look at the house? You'd better tell the truth."

"I went out for a drink with Shanhe, but he left early because of something. We dispersed early, and I went to look at houses. I wanted to go home and discuss it with you, but you were not here, so I took the passbook away."

"What about the house? I bought it."

“Yes, I bought it.”

"how much did you spend?"

"forty thousand"

"How many?"

"forty thousand"

"Where can I get a house? A building or a bungalow?"

"Listen to me, I heard that the house prices in ** community have been rising, so I bought it there."

"** community, why does it look so familiar?"

"Isn't it that the Jia family lives in this neighborhood? Zhuzi, are you going there for Qin Huairu? If you still want to be with her, I'll make room for you."
