Siheyuan: All the incense in the family is counting on you

Li Bowen's words stunned He Yushui.

"You're thinking about my brother? Who is it?"

"Who else could it be? It's next door to your house. A few days ago I saw Qin Huairu asking your brother to help her buy food."

"Just help, we are all neighbors. It's not easy for the Jia family, an orphan and a widow," He Yushui didn't seem to care.

"Silly girl, the key is that Qin Huairu didn't give any money. Given Jia Zhang's personality, after tasting the sweetness, I'm afraid she will continue to instigate Qin Huairu to ask your brother for help."

"Why don't you pay me for helping me buy things?" He Yushui was a little unhappy now. Helping someone, but not paying for it, was not okay.

"And what I'm more worried about is that Yi Zhonghai, his original candidate for retirement was Jia Dongxu. Now that Jia Dongxu is gone, he must be looking for a new target. Who do you think is most likely?" Li Bowen asked.

He Yushui answered without hesitation: "Then my brother is definitely the most suitable one."

In fact, this is very easy to analyze. He Yuzhu is the only one in this courtyard who has no hometown. Others are busy taking care of their own elderly, so who would help him with his retirement?

He Yuzhu is the only one who has no elders or children, and he also likes someone like Qin Huairu, so he is the easiest to deal with.

"Yes, your brother is definitely the most suitable one. If these two families get interested in him, Qin Huairu will use a honey trap on your brother, and Yi Zhonghai will use moral blackmail on him. I guess your brother will definitely fall into the trap they set.

By then, your brother will be a gangster! If Qin Huairu does something cruel to your brother again and refuses to give birth to his child, what will be the consequences! "

"How can that be possible? Our He family is counting on my brother to carry on the family line. If he doesn't have his own children, there's no way he'll be able to raise a child for someone else!" He Yushui immediately refused to accept it.

"Well, I don't want to see my eldest brother-in-law become a penniless person, so we have to get all the money from your brother now and save it for him. We'll give him a wife when he gets married. Otherwise, all the money will have to be given to Qin Huairu!" Li Bowen expressed his thoughts.

After listening to it, He Yushui felt that it made sense. He Yuzhu had no money. No matter how Yi Zhonghai and Qin Huairu schemed, could they succeed?

So he nodded and said, "I agree with you. My brother can't keep too much money in his hands. I will tell him tomorrow that the money he earns must be handed over to me. Don't let others get it for free!"

"That's right. I can't ask your brother for money. You have to come in person."

"Yeah, I'll go find him tomorrow. Okay, okay, let's not talk about him anymore. I get annoyed when I mention things at home!" He Yushui ended the topic and leaned her head on Li Bowen's shoulder, rubbing against him like a kitten.

It had come to this, how could he not know what it meant? Li Bowen simply picked her up horizontally, put her on the bed, and reached out to turn off the light.

When it was almost dawn, He Yushui got up, looked at Li Bowen who was still sleeping, kissed him on the face, then quietly got up and went out.

When Li Bowen woke up, there was no one around him.

After washing up and having breakfast, he called He Yuzhu to go to the steel mill together.

After entering the factory, when the two were about to part, Li Bowen reminded He Yuzhu to go and get the money and send it to him as soon as he was done.

When it was almost time to get off work in the afternoon, He Yuzhu found Li Bowen, took out a paper bag from his pocket and handed it to him: "Here are all the money, 1780 yuan, I'll keep the change. It's like going back to the days before liberation!"

"Did you leave money for the radio?"

"I've kept it. Don't worry. Hurry up and find me a ticket. I'm still waiting!"

Li Bowen smiled and said, "I will definitely give it to you within a week at the latest!"

After get off work, Liu Lan and the other two went to Lao Matou's house together.

"You are quite trustworthy. Are you prepared enough?" Old man Ma still had the same attitude.

Li Bowen reached out from his shoulder bag and took out 13 small yellow croakers and two piles of big black croakers and placed them on the table: "If I didn't have enough, I wouldn't dare to come to you. You can check it!"

Old Man Ma picked up two small yellow croakers, shook one in each hand, then put them in his mouth and took a bite before putting them back on the table: "They are in good condition. It seems that you have some skills!"

"You're welcome!"

"Old woman, please take out the things!" The old horse head waved to his wife.

The same small box was placed in front of Li Bowen. To be on the safe side, Li Bowen checked it again. After making sure there was no problem, he put it back in the box and said with a smile, "That's it. I'll keep the things."

"Okay, then I'll give it to you!" The deal was done, and the old horse head's attitude changed slightly.

Liu Lan just watched from the side, the shock in her heart was beyond words. She had just witnessed a big deal.

Li Bowen walked out of the house and walked in front. When he was about to reach the door, he turned back and looked at the yard again, and asked, "Grandpa, are you selling this house?"

The old horse head paused, and then asked, "Why do you want to buy a house again?"

"I do have this idea. I wonder if you have this idea?"

The old horse shook his head and said, "This is the property left by my ancestors and cannot be sold. But if you want to buy a house, I can help you contact someone. It is definitely not worse than mine!"

"That's great! Thank you for your help!" Li Bowen's eyes lit up.

"Don't thank me yet! If this thing succeeds, my share must not be less!" said the old horse head with a smile.

This old man said yesterday that he didn't want to mention the word money, but now he is talking to me about it again. I don't know which one is serious.

"Don't worry, I know the rules!" Li Bowen nodded.

"That's fine, wait for me to believe it, I promised to let my old woman go find your woman!"

Liu Lan was about to refute with an embarrassed look on her face, but Li Bowen pulled her to stop her from speaking. In front of such an old man, why bother making excuses? They were all thousand-year-old foxes, so why were they still playing Strange Stories from a Chinese Studio?

Back at Liu Lan's house, Li Bowen took out another 500 yuan from his bag and put it in Liu Lan's hand: "This is for you!"

"This is too much!" Liu Lan said in shock as she looked at the thick stack of money in her hand.

"Why is it so much? It's the normal agency fee. I didn't give you more. This is what you deserve. Just accept it with peace of mind!" Li Bowen said with a smile.

Liu Lan didn't count it, but judging from the thickness, she knew it was at least 4 or 500. This was almost two years' salary for her, and it only took her a short time to earn it. Her eyes turned hot as she looked at Li Bowen.

After putting it away, he pounced on Li Bowen without saying a word.

Li Bowen came out of Liu Lan's house, rubbing his waist. He stood at the door and looked at the starry sky. "I have to get a prescription to replenish my body, otherwise I really can't stand it."

She returned to the courtyard, entered her room, took out the bottle and the hairpin, admired them for a long time before putting them together in the space, then picked up a pen and wrote a letter to Wu Lei.
