Siheyuan: Learning to be the sixth

When He Yuzhu was about to leave, Wang Minghui realized that her grandfather had been chatting with her father-in-law. When she saw him, He Yuzhu had already turned around and was about to get in the car. Wang Minghui felt that she was being rude and was a little annoyed.

"Shun Shun, I didn't see dad coming, I hope he won't be mad at me."

He Shun knew that since his father didn't come to see him, it meant that he didn't want to disturb his and Minghui's work.

"Minghui, Dad won't be angry. On the contrary, he will be very happy to see how hard we work."

Hearing this, Wang Minghui felt much more relieved.

Mr. Wang walked back leisurely without avoiding suspicion. He took the opportunity when everyone was around to tell everyone what he had discussed with He Yuzhu.

The old men present had no objection to this and were quite happy with it.

"Grandpa, I want to go with Shunshun, too, is that ok?"

"No way"

He Shun thought that if his father knew that he took Minghui to the construction site to eat dirt, his father would probably ask the seven wolves of his ancestors to come out without hesitation.

Didn’t you see that Master Seven Wolves in the next yard was so scared by Uncle Guang Tianguangfu that he still dares not use a belt and all his pants are tied with elastic cords.

So he quickly pulled Wang Minghui aside and tried to persuade her not to have this "dangerous" idea.

At this time, Liu Haizhong, the master of Seven Wolves, who was unaware that he was regarded as a "typical" person by He Shun, was already dying. He had been struggling for so long but still could not get any news about the return of his eldest son Liu Tianqi.

At this time, the three giants of the Siheyuan Courtyard have all come, even Aunt Yi has come, not for anything else, but because so many years have passed, and some things have become indifferent.

At this time, Aunt Yi and Aunt Yan from the Yan family were comforting Aunt Liu.

At this time, Liu Haizhong said with envy:

"Old Yi, Old Yan and I are not as good as you..."

Yi Zhonghai knows very well that he is where he is today because of the karma created by his wife.

"Lao Liu, I am where I am today because my wife is kind-hearted. I have finally understood. If there is an afterlife, I will be kinder and do more good deeds."

Yi Zhonghai's words made Yan Fugui's face turn red. When he thought about what he did later, he felt a little embarrassed.

With the arrival of brothers Liu Guangtian and Liu Guangfu with their families, Aunt Liu's face looked much better and she felt a little comforted.

Although the brothers had a painful childhood, after all these years, although they are now fathers and still don't understand why Liu Haizhong treated them like that back then, he has indeed been very good to their children in recent years, so some things should just be let go.

The two of them brought the child to the bed and said to Liu Haizhong:

"Dad, the third brother and I are here to see you."

"grandfather……"

Seeing the second and third brothers coming to see him, Liu Haizhong said with tears in his eyes: "Second and third brothers, it was Dad who let you down back then. I am a sinner. Everything is my fault. Your mother has no choice. I hope you two brothers can treat her well after I die."

After hearing their father say "I'm sorry" with their own ears, the two brothers felt as if the huge weight in their hearts had been lifted.

"Dad, don't worry. I have discussed it with the third brother. From now on, my mother will live with my brother and me. We will take turns living with our two families."

Aunt Liu's eyes were red as she hugged her two granddaughters. She could finally enjoy the family happiness, although it was a little late.

That night, Liu Haizhong ate a plate of his favorite scrambled eggs and left.

When He Yuzhu received the letter, he did not have much emotional fluctuation. Death is the greatest thing, and the past is the past.

So they got in the car and rushed to the Beijing airport. In order to save time, He Yuzhu took the same plane with Dang Dabao this time.

The planes of this era were not as comfortable as those of later generations, and the two of them did not feel very comfortable along the way.

A Sheng's home is in a mountain valley in northern Shaanxi. According to Lao Cao, the village is not big, but every household has a relative who is a martyr, so it is a heroic village.

Because they had already died when A Sheng was on the mission, He Yuzhu came this time under the pretext of visiting the heroic deeds.

Since Aosheng's village is close to the prairie, influenced by the prairie people's habits, children are the ones who look after the house. Therefore, the only person who is related to Asheng by blood is his younger brother.

Although the old man is only about 50 years old, due to years of hard work and the harsh living environment in the northwest region, he looks like a man in his 70s.

After some investigation, He Yuzhu found out that he had received subsidies when his mother was alive, but now that his mother is gone, the subsidies are gone too.

He Yuzhu asked him if there were any other relatives in the family. The old man just smiled bitterly and said that the eldest son (Asheng) died at a young age, and the second son was a policeman and also died at work. However, he left behind two sons and one daughter, who are now working in the city.

He also has two sons, one works as an accountant in the village, and the other is guarding the border in the remote Xinjiang province.

He Yuzhu didn't know how to tell his brother the story of A Sheng. After much thought, he decided that since A Sheng was an unsung hero, he should just forget about it and not add to the sadness of the old man.

So he changed the subject and said that China had never forgotten heroes like Asheng, and after unremitting efforts, they finally found their remains. Now they entrusted He Yuzhu and others to send them back to their hometown for burial.

Since this was the Wu family's "territory", He Yuzhu asked Wu Chuancheng to call his father. When Wu's father heard the call, he immediately agreed to give the hero a decent burial ceremony.

According to Asheng's last wish, he was not buried in the ** cemetery, but was buried next to his parents' tomb.

That day, Asheng's nephews and nieces all came back and personally wore mourning clothes for him, which proved the saying that if he has nephews standing in front of him, he is not considered a bachelor.

Afterwards, He Yuzhu, who was still upset, let Dabao go back to the capital alone, while he took another bus to the neighboring province of Jin, because Mr. Zhang was also about to die and his time was running out.

Fortunately, the two father and son were destined to be together. He Yuzhu stayed with the old man for a few days when he arrived in Shanxi Province. Knowing that he did not have much time left, old man Zhang calmly took a photo with He Yuzhu.

"Zhu Zi, I'll leave you a memory. When the day comes, don't forget to light a cigarette for the old man."

He Yuzhu nodded heavily, and together with Zhang Weiguo, they each held one of the old man's hands and watched him slowly die.

He Yuzhu returned to Beijing only after dealing with Mr. Zhang's funeral. Lou Xiaoe looked at He Yuzhu with his scruffy beard and felt distressed.

"Zhu Zi, birth, aging, sickness and death are the normal course of human life. We will also have such a day. I just hope that you can walk behind me so that you can think about me for a few more years."

He Yuzhu felt at peace in Lou Xiaoe's warm embrace and fell into a deep sleep.
