Siheyuan: How the Little People Live

"what!"

Sha Zhu was a little confused. He didn't know why an old man named Yi Zhonghai would suddenly say such a thing.

But think about it, their uncle Yi Zhonghai adopted and raised them since they were young, and even found a factory director for them. He arranged for them to work in the factory at the age of 16, and only then did they have a stable life.

"Uncle, even though I always call you uncle, I think of you as my dad in my heart."

Sha Zhu thought about it and decided to speak out what was in his heart.

In his opinion, his father He Daqing left him and his sister behind just because he ran away with a widow. If it weren't for the childless uncle and aunt who took them in, they would have starved to death or frozen to death.

Uncle Yi Zhonghai stared at Sha Zhu's eyes intently. With the faint moonlight, he could tell that Sha Zhu's answer was sincere.

Uncle Yi Zhonghai was very satisfied with Sha Zhu's answer.

"Okay, let's go."

Uncle Yi Zhonghai patted Sha Zhu's arm, but he started to complain in his heart. If it weren't for Jia Zhang, he would never have accepted Jia Dongxu as his apprentice.

If I had asked Sha Zhu to recognize me as his godfather at that time, would there have been fewer troubles?

It's a pity that Jia Zhang's handle is now in her hands. But it doesn't matter. I have made arrangements for the back-up plan, and I will get Jia Zhang's handle sooner or later.

Thinking of this, a cold light flashed across Yi Zhonghai's eyes. If Ye Wenwu hadn't interfered, Jia Dongxu wouldn't have died so early, and the entire plan wouldn't have been disrupted so early.

To be honest, he somewhat regretted his previous plan, which made Ye Wenwu a lonely man.

Originally, he thought Ye Wenwu was the kind of person who was dull, honest and controllable.

But he never expected that Ye Wenwu had become a different person since his parents passed away.

He can even guess what I'm thinking in every round. If I hadn't trained my mentality frequently, I would have collapsed long ago.

. . . . .

The front yard of Hongxing Siheyuan.

West wing.

"Hey, what's going on? Damn it!"

The third uncle Yan Bugui lamented what happened tonight. He also blamed Ye Wenwu for being nosy. If Bang Geng had not been caught at that time, would there not have been so many things that happened later?

The third aunt shook her head. She would not interfere in the affairs of these men. She would just talk to a few sisters tomorrow.

"No, our courtyard can't let other courtyards look down on us like this. I have to go and persuade Ye Wenwu. He seemed to be having a great time drinking last night."

The third uncle Yan Bugui felt something was wrong the more he thought about it, and paced back and forth, stomping his feet.

You have to know that usually Mr. and Mrs. Ye are very good to the Yan family. In the whole compound, the only one who can be favored by his father-in-law and mother-in-law is Yan Bugui.

Now that Ye’s father and mother passed away suddenly due to something, they did not leave any explanation.

As an elder, he must let the younger generation know that there are things they can do and things they cannot do.

"Mother, I'm going to Ye Wenwu's house. Please let the children finish their homework and go to bed early."

The third uncle Yan Buguigui hurriedly picked up his coat and put it on, then opened the door to let the man walk into the house opposite.

When he arrived at Ye Wenwu's door, he hesitated for a moment.

He was afraid that his cautious friendship with Ye Wenwu would be severed by his own words.

But thinking about how Mr. and Mrs. Ye treated their family, Third Uncle Yan Bugui gritted his teeth and knocked on the door anyway.

"Dong dong dong."

"Dong dong dong."

"Dong dong dong."

After knocking three times in a row, the third uncle Yan Bugui finally put down his hand and waited anxiously for the door to open.

Ye Wenwu was also a little irritable and couldn't fall asleep at all lying in bed.

I see that the corn seedlings in the corner of my room have grown a little bit, but the system farm space still needs 7 days.

I was a little surprised and even confused when I heard the hurried knock on the door.

After all, at this time, no one in the entire compound can help you.

Ye Wenwu put on the coat beside the bed, and saw his cousin Zhang Xingbang in the other room also put on his coat and prepared to open the door. They both smiled.

"Click."

"Third uncle?"

Ye Wenwu was a little surprised to see that the person who came was his third uncle Yan Bugui.

After all, my family has been rarely interacting with the third uncle Yan Bugui recently, and they are deliberately distancing themselves from him.

"Wenwu, the Third Master wants to see you about something."

Third uncle Yan Bugui had a complicated expression. Ye Wenwu looked at his cousin and then followed Third uncle Yan Bugui out.

"Uncle, what do you want to talk to me about so late at night?"

Seeing that the third uncle Yan Bugui led him to a remote place, Ye Wenwu asked directly.

"Wenwu, why do you have to pick on Lao Yi and the others? We are all from the same compound, why can't we just live peacefully?"

Although the third uncle Yan Buguigui felt that the first uncle Yi Zhonghai was a bit overbearing, since he was the uncle in charge, Yi Zhonghai seldom used the methods that favored himself on Yan Bugui.

"Both my father and mother passed away suddenly, but I think if you are safe and sound, that's what your parents want to see most."

Ye Wenwu originally thought that his third uncle Yan Bugui came to ask him for something, but this was the result.

"Uncle, some people will remember what you have done, but some people won't."

"I still remember who emptied my family's wealth when my parents passed away?"

"If my parents didn't leave me any property, and No. 1 Middle School didn't want to give me the pension and work quota at that time, have you ever thought about what my life would be like in the future?"

The third uncle Yan Bugui was speechless, as he was also involved in the matter that Ye Wenwu was talking about.

If it weren't for his consent and selfish motives at that time, Uncle Yi Zhonghai would not have stolen the Ye family's things. The main reason was the natural disasters in the past two years. Everyone was afraid of poverty and had nothing to eat.

"Wenwu, you also knew that things were not going well in our hospital, and at that time..."

Ye Wenwu directly interrupted the third uncle Yan Bugui.

"Yi Zhonghai is a level 8 fitter at the Red Star Steel Rolling Mill, earning 99 yuan a month. What can't his family buy? If he really has compassion, why doesn't he take out money to help the people in our hospital?"

"Liu Haizhong is a seventh-level forger at the Red Star Steel Rolling Mill. He earns more than 70 yuan a month, and has a small plate of scrambled eggs every day. I would like to ask if the monthly expenses of the couple and their two sons are as much as your family's?"

"And Uncle San, you are a teacher at Hongxing Primary School, and your monthly salary is more than 50 yuan, but you also have various subsidies and teaching experience, so the total is nearly yuan per month."

"There are only a few poor people in our compound. Our Hongxing Siheyuan is the allocated compound of the Hongxing Steel Mill. There are only a few people here who are not family members of the Hongxing Steel Mill employees. If he really wants to help the poor, why would he touch me, the only orphan? Just because I'm an orphan, should I be bullied?"

Third uncle Yan Bugui thought about Ye Wenwu's words, and his original intention to persuade him faded.

It seemed that there was nothing that could refute Ye Wenwu's words.

"So, Third Uncle, please don't tell me about these things. I don't want to hear them and I can't listen to them. Don't advise others to be good without experiencing their suffering. Don't do to others what you don't want others to do to you. I believe that you should understand these principles."

Ye Wenwu left after saying this, leaving the third uncle Yan Buguigui standing there stupidly.
