Siheyuan: I have a mental illness

The next morning.

At seven o'clock in the morning, the sky was still shrouded in darkness, like a huge black curtain. Although it was not yet daybreak, looking up, one could still see stars dotted in the night sky, twinkling with faint light. However, the people in the courtyard had already gotten up, ready to greet a new day of work and life.

"Good morning!" "What a nice day today!" "Who left something behind?" The yard was filled with greetings, shouts, and other noisy sounds. Everyone was busy packing their belongings and preparing to leave home for work.

Ye Fan, who was lying on the bed, slowly opened his eyes after hearing the noise outside, staring at the roof, and couldn't help sighing in his heart: Such a life is really helpless. He curled his lips and climbed out of the bed reluctantly. After all, getting up in the cold winter is really a painful thing. This is Ye Fan's truest feeling at the moment.

Ye Fan quickly put on his clothes and originally planned to go directly to his washroom, but after some thought, he decided to go outside to wash up. He felt that if he didn't wash up every morning, it would make others feel strange. So Ye Fan picked up the basin, took his toiletries, opened the door and walked out.

When Ye Fan came to the sink with his toiletries, the people in the courtyard were very considerate and made room for him.

Xu Damao, who was brushing his teeth, saw Ye Fan and raised his hand to greet him.

Seeing Xu Damao and Ye Fan take the initiative to greet each other, Yi Zhonghai's eyes narrowed.

Of course the person Yi Zhonghai hates the most now is Ye Fan, but Yi Zhonghai is also angry at Xu Damao who spoke up for Ye Fan yesterday.

Ye Fan nodded to Xu Damao, then took some water to brush his teeth. Seeing Ye Fan washing up without any hot water, Xu Damao said in surprise: "Chief Ye, don't you add some hot water? It's so cold!"

Ye Fan was about to say no, when a tempting voice sounded: "There is a lot of hot water in my thermos, Chief Ye will share some with you."

Ye Fan turned his head to look at the woman who was talking. It turned out to be Qin Huairu. She had a smile on her face and a hint of charm in her eyes, which made people's heart beat.

Ye Fan smiled and replied: "Thank you, daughter-in-law of the Jia family."

Qin Huairu looked charming and said to Ye Fan in a soft voice, "Chief Ye, you're welcome."

Qin Huairu's words stunned Xu Damao. Xiao Cui from last night unconsciously appeared in his mind, and his heart was filled with emotions.

In fact, Ye Fan didn’t care about the low temperature of the water at all. After all, he was a man who had been strengthened by the system. He also possessed the Sacred Heart Sutra and his physical fitness was incredibly strong. This little bit of coolness was not a problem for him at all.

Inside the Jia family's house, Jia Zhang glared at Jia Dongxu and asked sternly, "Tell me, what did you do last night? Why is there less money under my pillow? What did you do with the money?"

Jia Dongxu was now extremely upset. He paced around the room, muttering to himself, "What should I do?" After burning paper for his deceased father, Lao Jia, last night, Jia Dongxu could not wait to rush back home.

As soon as he entered the room, he hurriedly took off his clothes and went to bed, thinking that he would have a good sleep and a sweet dream. Maybe when he woke up, his little brother would come back.

However, when Jia Dongxu woke up in the morning, he was disappointed to find that his little brother was still missing.

He was filled with anxiety, fear, and even despair.

He couldn't understand why his little brother suddenly disappeared when he had done nothing wrong.

You know, he has a beautiful and graceful daughter-in-law, and he is so young. How could he lose the most important thing for a man just like that for no apparent reason?

Could it be that everything that happened in that dream was real?

Is it really because of his dead father?

The more Jia Dongxu thought about it, the angrier he got. He couldn't help but curse in his heart, "You old fool, why don't you just stay down there and gamble like others? You even lost my life!"

Thinking of this, Jia Dongxu suddenly grabbed his hair and shouted: "Why, why."

Looking at Jia Dongxu who suddenly collapsed and screamed, Jia Zhang also stood there in a daze.

Jia Zhang didn't understand what happened to her son today. No, something was wrong with him since he was in the hospital.

Jia Zhang decided not to pursue the matter of the one dollar for the time being. She walked over to Jia Dongxu and asked distressedly, "Dongxu, what's wrong with you? Tell mom quickly!" The veins on Jia Dongxu's forehead bulged, his face was terribly gloomy, his eyes were bloodshot, he stared straight at Jia Zhang, his voice low and cold, "It's all his fault! It's all his fault!" After that, he pushed Jia Zhang away and walked straight to the portrait of old Jia.

Jia Dongxu grabbed the portrait of Lao Jia tightly with both hands and roared, "It's you, it's all because of you!" Then, he raised the portrait of Lao Jia high up and smashed it down. Jia Dongxu's action was too fast, and Jia Zhang had no time to react. The portrait of Lao Jia had been smashed to the ground. There was a loud "bang", the frame broke, and the portrait of Lao Jia fell to the ground.

Jia Dongxu mercilessly stepped on the portrait of Lao Jia, cursing every time he stepped on it, as if he wanted to vent all his anger and resentment on the photo.

At this time, the people washing in the pool in the middle courtyard naturally heard the movement of the Jia family. They all stopped what they were doing and looked towards the Jia family. The love of watching the excitement was a major characteristic of people in this era, so soon, the front door of the Jia family was surrounded by enthusiastic spectators.

Ye Fan and Qin Huairu continued to wash by the pool. Ye Fan smiled and said to Qin Huairu, "Is Jia Dongxu acting crazy recently?"

Qin Huairu nodded and replied in a low voice: "I don't know what's going on. Since he came back from the hospital, he has become mysterious and often talks to himself."

Ye Fan raised his mouth slightly with a meaningful smile, then looked at Qin Huairu and said, "Then you should go back quickly. There are so many people gathered in front of the Jia family. If you don't go back quickly, you won't be able to explain it later."

After listening to Ye Fan's words, Qin Huairu nodded, then poured out the water in the basin and hurried back to the Jia family.

Ye Fan looked at Qin Huairu who was leaving and said to himself that it was time for Jia Dongxu to go see his dead father.

Afterwards, Ye Fan washed his face casually and returned to the house with the basin.

When Ye Fan came out of the house again, Xu Damao smiled and asked, "Chief Ye, why don't you go to Jia's house to watch the fun!"

Ye Fan looked at Xu Damao and said with a faint smile: "Rather than watching the fun, I prefer to join in the fun." As he said that, he walked past Xu Damao and went straight to the steel mill.
