Golden Color Xiangjiang: A Young Man's Dream in a Siheyuan

When Liu Haizhong got home, he said to his second aunt (whose real name is Ma Guifang, made up by the author): "Guifang, give me an egg."

The second aunt also knew that her man was the center of attention tonight. Not only did he force the first uncle to flee, but he also won Zhou Jin's praise.

"Okay, I'll fry some eggs for you right away."

After saying this, the second aunt went to the kitchen.

Yan Bugui returned home with a serious face, and after closing all the doors and windows of the house tightly, he turned to face his children and said, "From now on, you must never provoke the man named Zhou Jin in the backyard again. This man is definitely not a simple person. I'm afraid there will be no peace in the courtyard from now on."

"Dad, what happened?"

At this time, the three aunts were busy cooking at home and were unable to go to watch the fun, and the children had just returned from playing outside.

Yan Bugui took a deep breath and said slowly: "Just now, Lao Yi went to Zhou Jin's house to find fault and wanted Zhou Jin to give the meat to Qin Huairu, but he ended up being scolded.

Seeing this, Sha Zhu wanted to take action to suppress Zhou Jin in the house, but he was knocked out by a punch instead. You say that Sha Zhu really has no memory. He has been beaten by Zhou Jin so many times, and he still dares to rush forward.

In the end, Lao Yi couldn't win the argument or the fight, and he lost all his face. He had no choice but to run away in shame with Sha Zhu.

Although on the surface Lao Yi did not receive any punishment for this incident, he did run fast enough and had a strong ability to grasp the opportunity, but in fact he not only lost face, but also the image he had painstakingly cultivated over the years began to collapse. "

"I see. It seems that Zhou Jin is indeed no simple person. But Dad, why did you say that he wanted you and the second uncle to fight Old Yi head-on?" Yan Jiecheng asked in confusion.

"Hey, why don't you use your brain? Zhou Jin alone is enough to deal with Yi Zhonghai and Sha Zhu. Look at what happened before. Every time it was Yi Zhonghai and his men who took the initiative to cause trouble, but Zhou Jin easily took them down.

Either they have to pay compensation and apologize, or they go to the police station. You see, Jia Zhang hasn't come out yet. If Sha Zhu and Jia Dongxu hadn't had the help of the deaf old lady, they would probably still be eating steamed buns in the police station.

But this time, he actually took the initiative to seek justice from me and Lao Liu. He just wanted to drag us into the fight with Yi Zhonghai. In the end, he even praised me and Liu Haizhong for being fair, which made Liu Haizhong so happy that he lost his mind. Isn't this an obvious provocation?"

Hearing this, the children nodded to show that they understood. Yan Jiekuang couldn't help but said, "Okay, we got it. Even if you don't tell us, after seeing the scene where he beat Sha Zhu, we would never dare to provoke him easily."

After this incident, the courtyard became quiet again. Yi Zhonghai finally spent his own money to buy an old hen and made chicken soup for Qin Huairu.

Because Jia Zhang was not around, Qin Huairu stayed in the hospital for several days. Finally, she felt that there was nothing wrong with her. It cost money to stay in the hospital every day, so she asked Jia Dongxu to take her back to the courtyard to recuperate after giving birth.

But Qin Huairu gave birth to a daughter this time, so she was destined to have a bad life, because Jia Zhang's sentence was only fifteen days and she would be released soon.

By that time, Jia Zhang came back happily to see her eldest grandson, but it turned out that he was a money-loser and had to stay in the hospital for so many days. Jia Zhang would only be more harsh towards Qin Huairu.

Sure enough, five days later, when Jia Zhang was released, she had suffered a lot in the detention center. She was beaten every day and had no food to eat. She only had one steamed bun and a bowl of cold water a day.

And she also has to participate in labor. You can't imagine how she can do any work with her body that she has taken care of for more than ten years. However, in the detention center, she not only has to do her own work, but also has to help the cell boss with his work.

If she had any complaint, she would be severely beaten. Jia Zhang was very miserable. She was taken care of so well by Yi Zhonghai in the courtyard that she thought she was the third oldest in the world.

After entering the detention center, she realized that no one outside would tolerate her, so she could only swallow her anger and did not dare to resist at all.

Fortunately, she was only punished for fifteen days this time, and she managed to get through it by gritting her teeth.

Today is the day when Jia Zhang came out. She packed her things happily early in the morning, looking forward to her son coming to pick her up and take her home so that she can have a good meal to replenish her body.

As a result, as soon as he walked out of the detention center, Jia Zhang was disappointed. His beloved son was nowhere to be found outside, and even Yi Zhonghai didn't come.

Out of desperation, Jia Zhang could only walk home alone, because Jia Dongxu only came to deliver a quilt to Jia Zhang when she was imprisoned, and never came again after that.

So at this moment, Jia Zhang didn't know that her eldest grandson had become a money-loser. The lazy and gluttonous Jia Zhang couldn't walk anymore after ten minutes.

Fortunately, she had sealed part of her pension money in her clothes, otherwise it would have taken her several hours to walk home.

When Jia Zhang took the tricycle back to Courtyard No. 95, Yan Bugui was frightened.

Jia Zhang's face is now a little thin and her clothes are in tatters. If she said "Old Man Yan", the third uncle would probably want to kick her out.

"Are you Jia Zhang? How did you become like this? I thought you were a beggar from somewhere."

"You are the beggar. Your whole family is beggars. Get out of the way. I need to go home and have a good rest."

Yan Bugui didn't dare to offend Jia Zhangshi. He was a scholar and naturally knew the saying "It is difficult to raise a villain and a woman". Jia Zhangshi was not only a woman but also a villain.

Jia Zhang didn't care about Yan Bugui's look. She just wanted to go home and lie down, and then ask Qin Huairu to make some delicious food for her.

So Jia Zhang walked through the gate and headed towards the central courtyard.

When she returned home, she happened to see Qin Huairu feeding Xiaodang. Jia Zhang was immediately excited because her good grandson was born.

She hurried over, pulled down Xiaodang's pants, lifted his calves and looked at him carefully.

Then he let go of his hand angrily, pointed at Qin Huairu and started scolding her.

"Qin Huairu, you are such a useless jinx. How could you give birth to a money-loser? My eldest grandson is such a useless thing. Why did my Dongxu marry such a useless wife like you?

Why are you still standing there? Hurry up and cook for me. I want to eat meat, braised pork."

Qin Huairu felt very aggrieved, but she did not dare to resist Jia Zhangshi, so she could only speak timidly.

"Mom, Xiaodang hasn't finished his milk yet. I'll go cook for you after I finish feeding him."

"Eat, eat, eat. What can a little girl eat? You won't starve to death if you skip a meal. I've been suffering in there for so long, and you don't want to nourish my body, but feed this money-loser first.

You are so unfilial, do you want to starve me to death, you are so cruel."

Seeing that Jia Zhang was about to start throwing a tantrum again, Qin Huairu had no choice but to put on her clothes and carry Xiaodang out of the house.

Xiaodang was not full and kept crying. Qin Huairu finally had no choice but to go to Yi Zhonghai's house first to feed Xiaodang and then go to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy vegetables for Jia Zhang.

At this moment, Qin Huairu's heart was full of regret and helplessness.

At first, she wanted to marry into the city. When she saw that Jia Dongxu was a first-level worker in the steel rolling mill and had four rooms at home, Jia Zhang promised that she could do odd jobs to supplement the family income and help take care of the children. She even had a sixth-level master who was willing to help them.

However, the reality was far from her expectations.

Since marrying into the Jia family, Jia Zhang has lived a leisurely retirement life. Not only does she not take odd jobs, she is too lazy to even do housework. She even said something speechless like, "My family married you, do I have to work for them? That would be like marrying you in vain!"

She spent the whole day wandering around the yard with her pair of worn-out insoles.

What's worse is that Jia Zhang is a typical shrew. Her mouth offends almost everyone in the compound. If it weren't for Yi Zhonghai's help, she would have been kicked out of the compound long ago.

Jia Dongxu is a complete mama's boy. Although he is very good to Qin Huairu, he has worked in the factory for seven or eight years and is still only a first-level fitter. He has no achievements in other aspects.

Especially every time when Jia Zhang bullied him, he wanted Jia Dongxu to help him, but all he got was an evasive look.

This made Qin Huairu extremely disappointed, and she realized that her previous choice might have been wrong.

I work so hard at home, but I often don't have enough to eat. Now I have a daughter. I guess my life will be even harder in the future. I just hope Dongxu can pass the test this time, so that our family's life can be improved.

Qin Huairu was busy all day cleaning the house. Just as she finished cooking, Jia Dongxu came back from get off work, and Jia Zhang also got up when she smelled the food.

Qin Huairu brought steamed corn bread, fried cabbage and pickled vegetables to the table. Jia Zhangshi and Banggeng saw that they were these things again and there was no smell of oil at all.

Jia Zhang was very unhappy. She had said that she wanted to eat meat and braised pork, but Qin Huairu used these things to supplement her nutrition. She really didn't take her seriously.

So Jia Zhang was about to get angry, but her good grandson took a step ahead of her and threw the steamed bread directly into the bowl.

"I want to eat meat, meat, not this."

Jia Dongxu was already very tired after a day's work. Even though he was just slacking off, he was still tired. When he came back, he saw that the family was in chaos over dinner. He got angry and yelled, "Eat if you want, eat. If you don't want, get out."

Jia Zhang originally wanted to teach Qin Huairu a lesson, but her son was already angry. If she said anything else, it might anger Dongxu, so she temporarily calmed down and decided to teach Qin Huairu a lesson when Dongxu went to work tomorrow.

She quickly pulled Banggeng to sit beside her, took his bowl of rice and steamed buns, and then began to comfort her beloved grandson.

Seeing that the scene was quiet, Jia Dongxu started to eat. He stopped eating suddenly, as if he had thought of something, and looked at Jia Zhang with joy.

"Mom, you said that our family now has one more person, but my salary has not increased. I plan to talk to my master later and call on people in the compound to donate to my family. What do you think?"

Jia Zhang looked at Jia Dongxu with great satisfaction, feeling that her son had inherited her true teachings. Since her family was in such a difficult situation, other people in the courtyard should help them.

"Dongxu, you are right. Those people should help us. After dinner, go to Yi Zhonghai's house and tell him about this. He is your master and cannot ignore you. If that doesn't work, I will step in."

After hearing this, Jia Dongxu felt that what his mother said made sense: "Okay, Mom, I'll go now." After that, he walked towards Yi Zhonghai's house.
