Siheyuan: Big City, Small Love

He Lai waited for the golden eagles to finish eating the fish, and then gave them two pieces of beef.

After seeing the golden eagles finish eating again, He Lai stopped giving them food and instead got two bowls of milk for them to drink.

The golden eagle seemed to understand He Lai's meaning and began to drink slowly.

He Lai was watching them from the side.

"Come here, brother!" Yu Shui also rushed back at this time and saw He Lai feeding the golden eagle.

When the golden eagle saw the rain coming back, it moved closer to He Lai.

Yu Shui didn't seem to notice that He Lai's expression was wrong, and complained: "Brother Lai, look, as soon as you came back, these two golden eagles stopped working properly and flew back immediately. Humph, they are still hungry, and they are not hungry enough."

"Yushui! How can you talk like that!" He Lai said angrily.

Yu Shui was startled by He Lai's shout and said aggrievedly, "What's wrong? Brother Lai, you were mean to me as soon as I came back!"

"Tell me, why don't you feed the golden eagle!" He Lai said seriously.

"Ah, I fed it, but, this... this... the teacher said that animals like eagles cannot be fed too much. They will only hunt when they are hungry, so I fed them a little less." Yu Shui said with his head down, looking a little embarrassed.

"Why? If you think they can't hunt for you, then you can just not feed them. Do you want me to starve you for a few days so you can go to school on an empty stomach? Yu Shui, how did you become like this now? I am so disappointed in you!"

He Lai sighed.

"I didn't, brother, you are wronging me!" Yu Shui explained anxiously.

"No? Then do you know how much meat the two golden eagles ate just now? A total of seven or eight kilograms of meat! And you still say you didn't have any!"

He Lai said with a straight face.

"Anyway, I didn't. Humph, I will never talk to you again!" After saying that, Yu Shui ran away crying.

He Lai was silent, just looking down at the two golden eagles, hesitating whether to just put them back into the space to avoid trouble.

Wu Juan came over at this time, and it was obvious that Yu Shui had gone to Wu Juan to cry.

Seeing He Lai feeding the golden eagle in the kitchen, he walked over.

"What's wrong? It's just that I didn't feed her enough food. Why are you talking about Yu Shui like that? She finally came back!"

Wu Juan asked in confusion.

"Mom, golden eagles are also human. They know the difference between cold and warm. I just think the rain shouldn't be too harsh on them."

He Lai did not go to see Wu Juan, but instead touched the golden eagle's head.

"Hey, kid, just speak nicely. Look how sadly Yu Shui is crying." Wu Juan said.

"I...I don't want to say anything about her, but I just can't understand why she did this when we already have so much meat at home. I've never let her go without a bite of food, so why would she starve her golden eagle just for something at school!"

He Lai carried the golden eagle back to his bedroom, locked the door, and entered the space.

Wu Juan was speechless when she saw her son arguing with Yu Shui over this matter.

I knocked on He Lai's bedroom door, but seeing that he was unwilling to open it, I had to go back.

……

He Lai was in space, looking at a dozen golden eagles flying in the sky.

Alas, I feel like I am a bit too virtuous. I can kill the animals in this space whenever I want. Why should I care whether they are full or not?

Don’t think about it, close your eyes and go to sleep.

When He Lai woke up, it was already two o'clock in the morning.

After wiping his face, he left the space and the bedroom, and saw the food on the table, which should have been left by Wu Juan.

He Lai ate a few bites and then climbed over the wall and went out, ready to take a stroll around the black market and ghost market.

First he went to the black market and bought some cigarettes and alcohol from Ma Liu, then he bought everything he liked on the black market, especially guns and antiques, without bargaining or checking their authenticity.

Money is a bastard, spend it and earn it again!

When He Lai was carrying hundreds of kilograms of things out of the black market, Ma Liu's younger brother spoke up.

"Brother, this gentleman of ours is becoming more and more arrogant. He has bought up half of the goods in our black market in one go."

"Shut up. Can't you see that this gentleman is in a bad mood today? We just need to serve him carefully. This is our God of Wealth. We can't offend him. Do you understand?"

Ma Liu patted his younger brother on the head and warned him.

"Brother, I get it. Stop hitting me on the head. You're almost driving me stupid." The younger brother touched his head and said aggrievedly.

"Alright, alright, I've got you covered, so just be silly. Come on, I'll take you to have some fun!"

Ma Liu pulled his younger brother over and walked towards a place.

……

He Lai turned around, put the things into the space, and went to the ghost market again.

When Old Man Yu and the others saw He coming, they all gathered around immediately.

"Brother, you haven't been here for a while, how about you? Collect some more today?"

Old Man Yu asked.

"Yes, but go back and get some more. These are too few. It's pointless to keep them all."

He Lai casually picked up a jade dragon pillar and started playing with it.

"Uh...well, let me discuss it with my old friends." said Old Man Yu.

He Lai waved his hand and told them to do as they pleased.

Soon, all the old men started to move. Some of them packed up their stalls and went back to get their things. He Lai was a rich man with both money and food. If they missed the opportunity, they would lose it all.

He Lai looked at the ghost market which used to be quite crowded, but now there was no one there. Everyone went home to get their things. It seemed that they all wanted to take advantage of He Lai.

Don’t say that Blind Old Yi has poor eyesight, he actually walks pretty fast! He was the first to come over.

He Lai looked at the big bundle in front of him, which was obviously a bed sheet. It seemed that blind old Yi had taken a lot of things.

"Young man, take a look?" Blind Old Yi opened the bag and said with a smile.

He Lai took a look and saw a feather duster! He was immediately happy!

"What? Is this thing also an antique?" He Lai said as he picked up the feather duster and waved it.

"Oh, I was cleaning in a hurry and got this mixed in." Blind Old Yi took the feather duster and explained.

"Okay, I'm too lazy to look at it. Just tell me the selling price or how much grain you want." He Lai said generously.

"Well, just give me 600 kilograms of corn flour." Blind Old Yi said with a smile.

"Oh, why don't you want flour?" He Lai asked puzzledly.

"Hehe, cornmeal is good enough, why eat flour!" Blind Old Yi said with a smile.

He Lai also understood Blind Lao Yi's thoughts. Blind Lao Yi should know that He Lai's cornmeal is all cornmeal, so there is not much difference between flour and cornmeal, and it is cheaper. Only a fool would choose flour.

"Five hundred kilograms of cornmeal, if you want it, it's a deal!" He said.

"Okay, okay, I'll listen to you, brother. Five hundred is five hundred!" Blind Old Yi happily agreed.

"Okay, you wait." He Lai was not vague. He turned around and went to the alley and put four thousand kilograms of flour and five thousand kilograms of cornmeal here.

He Lai moved the goods for blind old Yi three times and gave him all 500 kilograms of cornmeal.

One by one, old men came over with things in their hands.

He Lai was too lazy to move the food for them, so he just told them where the food was stored and asked them to get it themselves.

The people in the front all wanted cornmeal, so the old men in the back could only ask for flour. He Lai gave them plenty and distributed all the food to these old men.

Before leaving, He Lai borrowed Old Man Yu's small cart. There were so many things that they had to be loaded onto the cart.

"Who do you think this guy is? Where did he get so much food?"

an old man asked.

"Why do you care so much? You are just a small-time worker and you want to get close to her!"

Old Man Yu glanced at him and said.

"Hey, old man Yu, how can you talk like that? Be careful or someone will throw your broken cart away!"

"Just throw it away. It's worthless anyway and people will borrow it from time to time. I don't want it anymore." Old Man Yu said firmly.
