Siheyuan: Sending my younger brother to the countryside to raise pigs

Li Zhi saw Yu Li's embarrassed expression, and was afraid that the duck in his mouth would wake up and fly away, so he quickly said: "Ali, you also know that your father and sister have a bad impression of me. If I don't behave well tomorrow, do you think they will let you marry me happily?"

Yes, Haitang was not optimistic about Azhi last time. If her mother had not stood on her side, her relationship with Azhi might have been ruined by her.

The last few times she went home, she kept reminding herself to be more careful and guard against Azhi.

Whenever she heard these words, she got angry and felt that her sister was jealous of her.

Haitang is just too fussy, otherwise why doesn't she have a partner yet?

You can borrow money...

Li Zhi held Yu Li's hand and continued, "Ali, I do this because I want to marry you as soon as possible and let you live the good life you always dream of. You...if you feel embarrassed, forget it. I'll go to your house tomorrow. If your parents are not satisfied, it means we are not destined to be together."

How can that work?

She and Azhi are a match made in heaven, how could they be undestined?

Hearing this, Yu Li's face changed, and she made up her mind that for the sake of her and Azhi's future, she must borrow the money.

Azhi must be allowed to meet his parents in a decent manner. Only in this way can their marriage go smoothly.

"Azhi, I believe you. I'll go borrow the money right now and I won't let you embarrass yourself in front of my parents tomorrow."

Li Zhi was overjoyed.

What a fool.

If you want me to marry you, go ahead and dream on.

As soon as I get the money, I will run away to another place, find a clean woman, and live a good life. Who wants to spend their whole life with a stupid and self-righteous woman like you?

Li Zhi felt disgusted in his heart, but he still maintained a gentle expression on his face, "Ali, you are so kind. Don't worry, I will never let you down. I will let you and your child live a good life. Our family of three will live happily together forever."

"Ah."

Under Li Zhi's sweet words, Yu Li felt like she was in a honey pot. How could she be rational at all?

I just want to borrow some more money to dress Li Zhi up nicely so that he can go meet his parents tomorrow.

She has already begun to build a beautiful future for the two of them in her heart.

Yu Li began to borrow money from relatives and friends. Ten yuan was not too much, and three or two yuan was not too little. She scraped together the money and borrowed from everyone she knew. In the end, she borrowed seventy or eighty yuan in total.

Li Zhi counted the money and stuffed it into his trouser pocket with peace of mind. Seeing Yu Li's distressed look, he comforted her: "Ali, do you not trust me? If you are worried, I will write you an IOU."

Yu Li wanted Li Zhi to write an IOU, but she was worried that the IOU would create a rift in their relationship.

Li Zhi is now her only lifeline. Everything in her future is tied to him. What if she makes him unhappy and he doesn't want her anymore? Wouldn't that be a waste of effort?

Yu Li immediately put on a cheerful smile, "What are you talking about, Azhi? I don't trust anyone, but I will trust you."

"Okay Ali, I know you trust me. Don't worry, as long as I get paid, I will give you the money as soon as possible."

Li Zhi was still not satisfied. He thought of Yu Li's sister working in a steel mill, and he started to think again, "Ali, I remember your sister works in a steel mill, right?"

"Yes what's the matter?"

Yu Li became alert and didn't want Li Zhi to mention Yu Haitang.

"Why don't you go borrow some from her?"

"Ah, you still need to borrow? You've already borrowed seventy or eighty. Isn't that enough?"

Yu Haitang is worse than her in every way, and she is unwilling to admit that she is not as good as her sister.

Now she is asked to borrow money from her sister. Isn't this just throwing her face under Yu Haitang's feet?

How could she?

Moreover, seventy or eighty yuan is enough for a working-class family's living expenses for two or three months. It would not cost so much to just buy some gifts to deliver tomorrow.

Li Zhi knew what Yu Li was thinking, so he immediately changed his expression and said with regret: "I am thinking about our future. This money is enough to buy some gifts, but I also want to treat your parents to a meal and have some fun around the city. Well, forget it, let's just leave it at that."

Yu Li thought it made sense.

She couldn't bear to see Li Zhi's disappointed look. She would feel anxious if he was unhappy, fearing that Li Zhi would abandon her.

She had a way out before, but now that she is pregnant, there is no way out at all.

"No, I'll give it a try. You're the one who has thought it through."

Li Zhi was happy. He held Yu Li's hand and was affectionate with her for a while, then taught her how to date Yu Haitang.

He won't go.

Although they had only met once and had spoken less than a few words, he could feel that Yu Haitang was definitely not as stupid as her sister.

If he went along, he might be discovered on the spot.

The two held hands and came to the gate of the steel rolling mill with great affection.

Li Zhi secretly hid in a corner and let Yu Li negotiate with her sister on her own.

In the evening, the gate opened.

The workers at the steel mill were wearing blue work clothes, with black oil stains all over their fronts, pouring out of the steel mill like a flood released from a sluice gate.

And in the midst of this flood, Yu Haitang is special.

She was not wearing work clothes, but fashionable clothes of the moment. She was like a delicate and nimble little fish swimming in the torrent, being swept away.

Many male workers passing by greeted her one after another, not hiding the desire in their eyes, but they did not dare to get too close for fear of defiling this noble flower.

Yu Haitang stood out in the crowd, and Yu Li saw her sister at first sight.

Seeing her like the moon surrounded by stars, he was jealous to the point of going crazy, but when he thought about the purpose of his visit, he still waved at her.

Yu Haitang also saw her sister and didn't understand why she came here.

It's not like he came to visit me on purpose.

Yu Haitang came to Yu Li and asked indifferently, "Sister, why are you here? What's the matter?"

Look, this is why she doesn’t like Yu Haitang, she is cold and aloof, with an air of superiority.

Yu Li suppressed her displeasure and said, "What are you talking about? We are sisters, can't I come to see you?"

Yu Haitang expressed doubts about this.

Her sister only has eyes for men and doesn't even go home, so why would she come to see her specially?

She glanced around but didn't see the man.

"You came here alone? That man didn't come with you?"

Could it be that he was abandoned by someone?

At first sight, she felt that the man was not reliable.

Yu Li was dissatisfied, "What man? He's your brother-in-law."

"Let's wait until you two are really together. People have seen it. Do you have anything else to do? If not, I want to go home. Are you going to come back? Mom has been missing you lately."

"Go back. I'll be back soon, too. Say hello to your parents."

"okay."

After saying that, Yu Haitang turned around and prepared to leave.
