Rebirth 1962: The Beginning of the Angry Fan Qin Huairu

January 1, New Year’s Eve

As usual, He Yuzhu went to the boss's house to cook a meal in the afternoon, and then returned to the courtyard with the snacks and canned food given by the boss. However, Yan Bugui's business this year can be described as "dismal."

Without the halo of the manager, his couplet business plummeted, because it was almost dark, but he had only written three couplets.

At this moment, Yan Bugui was sitting there cursing for not knowing the value of things, but when he saw a car parked at the door, he quickly got up and ran over.

"Oh, who was it? It turns out that the only leader of our hospital has returned."

He Yuzhu looked at Yan Bugui's greedy eyes. "Hey, look at what you said, I don't think of myself as a leader!"

"That's because you have a noble character, Zhuzi. If your position as the director fell on someone else in our hospital, they would have already been curled up to the edge of the Houhai Sea by now."

"Oh, you are indeed a man of few words." He Yuzhu praised, and then looked at the remaining stack of red paper on the desk. "Isn't it that business is so bad today?"

Yan Bugui's face turned red. "It's not about business, it's just for fun."

"But I don't know what's wrong with the people in this courtyard. You said that your family has a top student named Yu Shui, so I definitely don't have to write the couplets, but other families don't write them either."

"Hey, tell me about my work this morning. Only your uncle, Lao Zhao, and Mao Cai asked me to write three paintings."

He Yuzhu laughed and joked, "I was wondering why there were only so many peanuts in the peanut basket."

He Yuzhu looked back at the main entrance, and then at the moon gate that was just a stone's throw away. "Second uncle, write three couplets, and then ask your eldest brother to paste them on the main entrance and the other two doors, otherwise this New Year's Day will not have any festive atmosphere."

Yan Bugui's smile froze immediately upon hearing this, but he didn't want to reject He Yuzhu directly. However, He Yuzhu knew this guy's nature too well.

So he pretended to take out a few things from his cloth bag, and then put a sausage more than ten centimeters long on the table.

"Don't worry, this is my reward."

Yan Bugui's expression changed immediately, and his originally serious expression was replaced by a smile in an instant.

"Oh my, this, this, this is not good, right?"

"But it would be bad if I didn't want it. After all, it was given to me by you, Zhu. But don't worry, I will definitely decorate these doors beautifully in a while."

Just at this moment, Liu Guangqi walked into the yard with a smile on his face. "Hey, Zhuzi and Second Master are here?"

"Happy New Year!"

"Happy New Year!"

He Yuzhu replied, while Yan Bugui held the sausage with an excited look on his face and said, "Guangqi, look, this is still Zhuzi respecting cultured people."

"And Zhuzi is thinking about our entire courtyard and asked me to put up couplets on the main gate and the other two doors!"

Liu Guangqi took a look at the half-pound sausage and immediately gave a thumbs up.

"Brother Zhuzi is very calm."

"Hey, don't we all live in the same courtyard? If there are no red couplets during the Chinese New Year, is it still Chinese New Year?"

"Yes, yes. How about you be a leader? With this level of awareness, you will be promoted in the future."

"Okay, I'll lend you my good words!"

"Okay then. I'll go back first and we'll talk later."

"Come back, come back!"

He Yuzhu watched Liu Guangqi leave. As far as he could remember, he left after the Chinese New Year. The reason was very simple. Liu Haizhong had beaten Liu Guangtian on the second day of the Chinese New Year, which scared Liu Guangqi's daughter so much that she burst into tears.

He still remembered that this guy said a famous saying in Siheyuan before he left: "Unkind parents, unfilial children." Until the day Liu Haizhong died, Liu Guangqi never came back to see him.

Although what he did did go too far, the root cause was Liu Haizhong's own fault.

He Yuzhu shook his head without thinking much about it. He turned around, said hello to Yan Bugui and returned to the middle courtyard. As soon as he entered the courtyard, he saw Qin Huairu staring at their door.

He took a quick look and saw that his house had already pasted the couplet written by He Yushui. Although He Yushui had little practice in calligraphy, his writing was still very elegant and had a unique flavor.

At this time Qin Huairu also noticed He Yuzhu.

"Zhu Zi, sister, oh no, can I ask you for something?"

"cannot!"

He Yuzhu's words almost choked Qin Huairu to death, because when she was looking for He Yushui just now, that damn girl said the same two words.

Originally, she was thinking of asking He Yushui to help write couplets, so that the two families would have a chance to contact each other, and she would send some dumplings over in the evening.

Even if He Yuzhu didn't give her anything, the people in the yard would be afraid of their family when they saw this scene.

Besides, He Yuzhu's family is so well-off, how could they not give anything?

But she didn't expect that the brother and sister would not give her any face at all and rejected her with just two words. As for Yu Li, she didn't even bother to pay attention to her.

Qin Huairu had no choice but to take the five cents and go to Yan Bugui to ask him to write the couplet. However, when Yan Bugui saw Qin Huairu, he pushed his glasses in confusion.

"Didn't your family just leave? Can you put up couplets here?"

"Second uncle, isn't this what my mother-in-law asked me to post?"

"Oh, okay, I'll draw one for you right away!"

Yan Bugui didn't care about so many things. As long as there was something to earn, it was fine. As for the Jia family, they could do whatever they wanted.

However, He Yuzhu always felt that this year's New Year was very depressing, just like the last calm before the storm. It was not until the second day of the New Year that a burst of shouting and scolding came from the backyard, which broke the long-lost tranquility.

"You unfilial son, who are you hiding from by going to work so far away?"

"Dad, why don't you understand? Our leader has already said that as long as I go to support for two years, I will be promoted to a second-level clerk when I come back!"

But Liu Haizhong still blushed and scolded, "Don't play tricks on me. It's only for one year, isn't it?"

"But you took your wife and my eldest granddaughter away. I saw that you even took all their clothes. Do you not want to come back?"

"No, you said you'll be gone for two years, you can't just leave Juanzi here alone, right?"

"No, you can't go. You can get promoted here anyway. What if you go and don't come back?"

Seeing that he couldn't convince Liu Haizhong no matter what he did, Liu Guangqi simply turned around and gave orders to the mover on the moving truck.

"Master Zhou, you guys move first, I'll take care of this."

As Liu Guangqi said this, he turned around and stood in front of Liu Haizhong, while his wife Juanzi turned around and walked out of the courtyard holding the child.

At this time, most of the neighbors in the yard also gathered in the backyard, and He Yuzhu and his family stood in front of Ma Hua's house to watch the excitement.

When Liu Haizhong saw that he was determined to leave, he got angry and wanted to hit Liu Guangqi.

But Liu Guangqi was prepared. The second after Liu Haizhong raised his hand, he simply turned sideways to avoid Liu Haizhong's attack.

However, Liu Haizhong used all his strength in this slap, but the person being hit dodged it, and the next second he lost his balance and fell to the side.

"Hey, boss, boss, are you okay?"

"Big brother, why are you hiding? Your dad will be fine once he vents his anger. You said you were hiding and your dad fell down."

He Yuzhu was speechless. It was no wonder that Liu Guangqi ran away. If it were him, he would have to run away too!

Liu Guangqi looked at Liu Haizhong with some dismay at this time. "Dad, how old am I now? Why are you beating me like you did when I was a child?"

"Don't you really understand why you left? Don't you understand why we all don't dare to talk to you?"

Liu Haizhong covered his waist and scolded: "Why? Because I am strict with you. I think it's because I spoiled you when you were a child!"

"Look at your two younger brothers. They are not as unfilial as you."

"Haha, really? My brother didn't run because he is not in a condition to run now. If he had the conditions to run, he would have run long ago."

The eyes in his bangs suddenly widened.

"Liu Guangqi, you are talking nonsense. Your brother would never do that."

"Second brother, third brother, can you say something?"

Liu Guangtian had just been beaten, so he reacted quickly.

"How could that be, Dad? Don't worry!"

But Liu Guangfu was so envious of his elder brother who was about to escape from suffering that he was a beat late in answering.

As a result, Liu Guangqi came up and laughed, "Look, they just don't dare, not that they don't want to."

Liu Haizhong stared at Liu Guangfu with bloodshot eyes, as if all this was caused by him. But just when he was about to get angry, his eyes suddenly went dark and he fainted.
