Siheyuan: Fishing for All Things

"You're late then." Lin Shaowen spread his hands and said, "Yesterday, the brothers in our courtyard helped me bring back the coal, and the coal cakes are ready."

"It's fine as long as it's ready. It's very cold this winter." Captain Xing sat beside Lin Shaowen, looked at the people in the courtyard and smiled, "What are you doing?"

"Zhang Wan and Xu Damao are treating us to lunch at noon. How about a drink?" Lin Shaowen smiled.

"I won't disturb you, will I?" Captain Xing asked Xu Damao.

"How can I? You know the situation in our courtyard. It's too late to welcome you." Xu Damao smiled.

"That's fine. I'll have a bite of hot water too." Captain Xing said happily.

At this time.

Three more people came in from the moon gate.

"Mom and Dad, you're here."

Yan Fengjiao and Yan Jiecheng immediately greeted them.

"Yeah."

Yan Hua looked around the yard and couldn't help but marvel, "This He Yuzhu's family is well-off, such a big yard... Oh, there is also a study room?"

As he said this, he was about to go to the study room.

He Yushui immediately stood up and stepped forward to stop him, "I said who are you, why are you breaking into someone else's house..."

"Who are you?" Yan's mother said unhappily.

"Dad, this is Sha Zhu's sister." Yan Jiecheng whispered.

"Sister?"

Yan's mother immediately became alert and was about to step forward to hold He Yushui's hand, but she dodged.

"What are you doing? Just talk, don't touch me."

"The little girl has a bad temper." Yan Long chuckled, "I am your brother's elder brother-in-law, we are relatives, right? Go in and see what's going on?"

"Don't try to be relatives with me, this is not Sha Zhu's house, don't barge in." He Yushui sneered.

"Ah? Not Sha Zhu's house?"

Yan Hua and others were slightly stunned.

How could someone invite someone to dinner at someone else's house?

Yan Fengyu, who was helping in the kitchen, heard the noise and ran out, holding her mother's hand and saying, "Mom, this is Lin Shaowen's house..."

"Lin Shaowen?"

Yan's mother and others turned their heads to look at the pavilion, only to see Lin Shaowen and a few people chatting and laughing, without even looking at them.

"Little sister, this whole yard is his?" Yan Long said in disbelief.

"Yeah."

Yan Fengjiao nodded helplessly.

"Hiss."

Everyone took a breath of cold air.

They really liked this yard. Not only was it beautifully decorated, but it was also big enough.

He Yushui was too lazy to pay attention to them. After closing the doors of the study and bedroom, he returned to sit next to Lin Shaowen.

"Is this little girl... married?" Yan Hua whispered.

"No." Yan Fengyu shook her head.

"How about introducing her to your brother?" Yan's mother also came over, "You also know your brother's current situation... He is not young anymore, what's the point of not finding a wife?"

"Mom, let's talk about this later." Yan Fengyu whispered, "The woman in this yard is very arrogant... She may not be interested in my brother."

"What are you talking about?" Yan's mother said unhappily, "Your brother is a handsome man, right? What's wrong with her being a little girl?"

Several people were talking.

Sha Zhu suddenly came out of the kitchen, startling several people.

"Oh, this is my parents and my elder brother, right?"

"You are... He Yuzhu?"

Yan Hua and Yan's mother said uncertainly.

"Yes, yes, I am He Yuzhu..." Sha Zhu hurriedly stretched out his hand, shook hands with them, and said happily, "Fengyu, take my parents and elder brother to sit for a while, the food will be ready soon."

"Yeah."

After Yan Fengyu responded, she took Yan Hua and others to sit at the dinner table.

A brazier was lit under the table, and it wasn't cold.

Seeing this, Yan Jiecheng and Yan Fengjiao also came over to keep him company.

"Girl, tell me the truth... Did this idiot Zhu force you?" Yan's mother said seriously.

Puff!

Yan Jiecheng couldn't help laughing.

"Don't make a fuss."

Yan Fengjiao pulled his clothes and signaled him to shut up.

"Mom, what are you talking about? What do you mean by forced? I volunteered." Yan Fengyu rolled her eyes.

"Little sister, I'm not saying... Isn't this idiot Zhu a little too old?" Yan Long said unhappily, "His appearance... is comparable to our father's. What do you like about him?"

"Hahaha."

Yan Jiecheng couldn't help laughing, attracting many people's attention.

"Brother, what are you talking about?" Yan Fengyu said dissatisfiedly, "This idiot Zhu is only 32 years old, and he earns 37.5 yuan a month. Can our father earn that?"

"Hiss, 37.5 yuan?"

Yan Long immediately shut up.

Yan Hua and Yan's mother were about to say something when suddenly a voice came from the kitchen saying "The food is served."

Yan Fengjiao and Yan Fengyu immediately ran to the kitchen, and Liu Guangfu from another tableYan Jiefang and others followed.

Just as the dishes were served on the table, a cough was heard from the moon gate.

"Hey, father-in-law..."

Yan Hua and Yan's mother stood up immediately.

"Hello."

Yan Bugui said hypocritically, "I just knew you were coming... Fengjiao didn't notify me in advance, otherwise I would have hosted a table."

"It's all the same, it's all the same." Yan Hua said happily, "My two daughters have married into your courtyard, and there will be opportunities in the future."

"That's right."

Yan Bugui naturally took the three aunts to sit at the table.

Yan Fengyu and Yan Fengjiao curled their lips at the same time, but said nothing.

Sha Zhu had just taken two bottles of Xifeng wine and placed them on the table, but heard exclamations from another table.

"Wow, Maotai?"

"Maotai?"

Yan Hua and others immediately turned their heads to look, and saw two bottles of Maotai wine on the table.

Damn Xu Damao, he must have done it on purpose.

The silly man almost bit his teeth.

"Zhang Wan, you are so rich now that you are divorced?" Liu Guangfu joked.

"I am still rich even if I am not divorced." Zhang Wan laughed and scolded.

"That's right, the wine you brought out is not bad, right?" Xu Damao chimed in.

"Come on, brothers, let's have one..."

Lin Shaowen raised his glass and smiled, "This glass is for Xu Damao and Zhang Wan first, let them spend money..."

"What's the value of this." Zhang Wan said with great pride, "Come on, brothers... let's have one."

"Let's have one."

Everyone picked up their glasses and drank them all.

"Father-in-law, don't bother with those guys. They are people who live a life of contentment." Yan Bugui chuckled, "Shazhu is different... This Xifeng wine is just right for entertaining distinguished guests."

"Third uncle is right, parents, big brother, let's have one too." Shazhu said hurriedly.

"Come on, have one."

Several people also raised their wine glasses, but their eyes kept looking at Moutai.

They have never drunk Moutai since they were young.

After drinking two glasses, Yan Long couldn't hold back any longer, and looked at Shazhu and said, "Brother-in-law... He Yushui is your sister, right? Why don't you call her over, let's have a drink together and get to know each other?"

"He Yushui?"

Shazhu and Yan Bugui looked at each other and fell into silence.

He Yushui is a hot-tempered little girl. Last time, she almost caused a stir because of Liu Guangfu's matter. If things go wrong, she might say something unpleasant.
