Free Days in Siheyuan

Chapter 1303 Comfort
After watching several exciting performances in succession, Zhang Yu was so happy that he no longer had the energy to lament about his bag being soiled by Jia Dongxu.

He threw the bag aside, planning to pack it up when he had time.

As for the baggage, he had thrown it into the space long ago.

In the evening, I received the care of my sister-in-law as usual.

The next morning, Zhang Yu got up early and prepared to buy some things for school.

Zhao Feng had a rare chance to rest and had nothing to do, so he insisted on going with him.

Zhang Yu didn’t say much, just go!

Zhao Feng was extremely happy to receive the promise. He waved his hand and said directly, "Xiao Yu, I will pay for your expenses today."

Zhang Yu didn't bother to be polite with him, and said with a smile: "Then I'm going to buy the expensive ones today."

Zhao Feng said nonchalantly, "Okay, buy the expensive ones."

Hearing this, Zhang Guifang next to him said, "Xiao Yu, don't be polite to your brother, just buy it and let him pay."

Zhang Guifang didn't know what she was thinking about, and the expression on her face looked a little unpleasant.

Seeing this, Zhang Yu's eyes flashed.

While my eldest brother was changing clothes in his room, I approached my aunt and asked quietly, "Aunt, what happened?"

Zhang Guifang glanced upstairs, then whispered, "Xiaoyu, I don't care what method you use today, in a word, you must empty your brother's pocket.

I have figured it out. No matter how old a man is, he cannot have money. I used to be lenient with you, thinking that he is not young anymore, has a job, and has his own social circle. Whether it is daily socializing or other things, he has to spend money, so I let him keep most of the salary. "

When Zhang Guifang said this, the expression on her face was one of regret.

Except for Xiaoyu who had poor health when he was a child, which caused her more worries, the other children were sensible and obedient since childhood and basically never caused her any worries.

As for sometimes fighting with others, or getting into trouble.

Not to mention that most children at this time will not tell their families about their fights. Even if they do tell their families, the adults in the family generally will not take it seriously.

Occasionally, when things got out of hand, or when someone was really serious about it, the child’s father would step in.

So she didn't care that much.

Thinking that Zhao Feng was the eldest child with a steady personality and who usually took care of his younger brothers and sisters, apart from the money he voluntarily handed over every month, he did not ask his children to hand over all their wages like most families at that time did.

As for the second and third children, one is more thoughtful and the other is less talkative, but they have never caused trouble since they were young and have never caused her any worries.

She thought that since she didn't have the eldest child's salary, she couldn't ask for the second or third child's, lest the children feel uncomfortable.

As for the fourth child, she is a girl.

As a woman, Zhang Guifang can feel the unfairness of this world towards women.

Even though some people keep saying that men and women are equal, it has only been a few years since this was mentioned and implemented.

If you want true gender equality, you have to wait.

Life is not easy for a girl, and it is only during these years at her parents' home that she can relax a little.

So naturally I can’t ask for my daughter’s salary.

Let her keep it, whether for her daily spending or to save as a dowry in the future.

As for Xiaoyu, there is no need to say more.

Although Xiaoyu has been in poor health since childhood, he is a sensible child.

Moreover, since he was injured that year, he has become more sensible and has his own opinions.

But she never expected that the boss would be so loose-handed.

Thinking about the things his eldest son had done during this period, Zhang Guifang became angrier and angrier. Why didn't he realize before that his eldest son was a gentle and considerate man?
Thinking of this, Zhang Guifang once again told her nephew: "Just buy the expensive ones today. Don't be afraid of your brother spending money. Anyway, who knows where he will spend the money he saves. If you can find a way to get all the money from your eldest brother, I will stew braised pork for you tomorrow."

Zhang Yu was a little puzzled. What had his elder brother done to make his younger sister-in-law like this?

Zhang Yu pointed upstairs and asked in a low voice: "Aunt, how did Big Brother offend you?"

Zhang Guifang frowned and said, "Don't mention it. Big brother has been possessed by a ghost recently."

Seeing that his aunt, who had always advocated science and democracy and opposed feudal ideas, actually told about ghosts, Zhang Yu was once again convinced that what his elder brother had done this time was absolutely excessive and had made his aunt so angry that she broke down.

While her eldest son was still here, Zhang Guifang angrily told him everything he had done recently.

After hearing this, Zhang Yu opened his mouth slightly.

The person his aunt was talking about just now was his eldest brother, why didn't he believe it?

It’s not that he looks down on his elder brother, but how can his elder brother think of so many things?

From what Zhang Yu saw, judging from the way his elder brother treated those girls, he didn't seem like the kind of person who could do such a thing.

Zhang Guifang waved her hands helplessly: "Don't mention it, what else can I say? Your elder brother is obsessed with something. I'm not against him dating someone. I even hope he can find someone and get married as soon as possible. But he has to be picky. I don't require anything about appearance or family background, but at least the character has to be good enough!"

When it comes to this, Zhang Guifang complains endlessly.

"Anyway, I don't see what's good about that girl, that's fine, the key is that she doesn't want to date your brother at all, but she's finding ways to deduct money from your brother.

I don’t know if your brother is really confused or just pretending to be confused? The reason given by the girl is obviously made up, but he just believes it and can find reasons to refute whatever anyone says.”

Speaking of this, Zhang Guifang was speechless.

It was also the first time that she discovered that her eldest son's dull mind could work so quickly.

The key is not to turn when you should, and to turn randomly when you shouldn’t.

"Anyone with eyes can see that something is wrong with that girl, but your brother is just like a fool, believing whatever she says. I estimate that in the recent period of time, that girl has taken at least 200 yuan from your brother."

As soon as these words came out, Zhang Yu's expression changed.

He didn't care much about 200 yuan. If the girl was sincere in dating his elder brother, he could give her 200 yuan, let alone 2000 yuan.

But from what his aunt had just said, he could clearly feel that the girl was simply trying to keep his elder brother hanging.

Zhang Yu's eyes flashed with a sharp look, and he asked thoughtfully: "Aunt, is it not just my brother that girl is hanging around?"

Zhang Guifang slapped her thigh and asked in surprise, "How did you know?"

With Zhang Yumu's face, he can say that there are too many similar things on the Internet in later generations.

Well, there is no need to say more about this.

"What's the situation with that girl?"

Zhang Guifang: "I asked someone and found out that the girl's surname is Shu, and her name is Shuxin. She was just transferred here from outside. It is said that her parents passed away early, leaving only the three siblings to depend on each other.

Her brother is in poor health and needs to take medicine all year round, so most of her monthly salary is spent on buying medicine for her brother.

The girl said that if she got married, she would also help her brother. "

When she said this, Zhang Guifang didn't show any special reaction on her face. If the other party was a good girl, willing to live a down-to-earth life with her eldest son, and helped her parents after marriage, she would have no objection.

The girl was born by her father and raised by her mother. You can't ask her to sever ties with her parents after you marry her.

Zhang Guifang is not that cold-blooded.

But you can help your mother’s family, but there must be a limit.

The girl earned her salary herself, and she was willing to use it to support her parents' family. Zhang Guifang had no objection.

But there is one thing: there should be a limit to helping your parents' home. You can't be like some people who want to suck the life out of their husband's family and take all their things back to your parents' home.

There is a reason why this girl touched Zhang Guifang's sore spot.

After only knowing each other for a few days, the girl borrowed money from the eldest son for various reasons.

That would be fine, but the key point is that the girl was not really interested in dating her son.

No, let alone being in a relationship.

The girl kept calling him friend and brother all the time, and she had no intention of taking responsibility.

Zhang Guifang secretly took a peek at the girl.

With just one glance, she was sure that her eldest son could not beat that girl.

It's obvious that the girl is a cunning person.

I don't know if those guys were bewitched by some evil spirit or what, but they all actually thought that the girl was a good one and were courting her in various ways.

Zhang Guifang: "I have asked someone to help me check the situation of Comrade Shu. I think there will be a result today, but it is probably the same as I imagined. Xiaoyu, you must find a way to squeeze your brother's money out today. I saw that he just withdrew a lot of money from the bank yesterday. If you don't squeeze him out today, I don't know who will get the money tomorrow."

Zhang Yu nodded: "Aunt, don't worry, leave this to me."

She might not be able to do other things, but she can spend money?

As for how to get money from his eldest brother, Zhang Yu narrowed his eyes slightly, leaned close to his aunt's ear, and whispered a few words.

Hearing this, Zhang Guifang's eyes lit up.

"Or else you have to say that young people are quick-witted. Why didn't I think of this trick?"

As he spoke, Zhang Guifang patted his chest and said, "Xiaoyu, you guys go first, leave the matter of finding people to me."

Zhang Guifang knows her eldest son's temper very well.

He has a good temper, but when he is not, he sometimes gets very stubborn and no one can stop him.

And he can't stand being provoked.

"Okay, I'll leave this matter of my aunt to you. I'll take my brother to the department store later."

Zhang Guifang: "Then I have to find someone quickly, otherwise I will be late."

Zhang Guifang watched her eldest son and nephew go out with a smile, then turned back to the house to change clothes, planning to go look for someone after the two of them left the door.

Zhang Yu and Zhao Feng greeted everyone in the courtyard as they walked.

"Grandpa, let's bask in the sun!"

Hearing Zhang Yu's voice, Mr. Sun sat up from the recliner: "Well, while the sun is not too strong, I will bask in the sun for a while."

Then he asked with some confusion: "Where are you two brothers planning to go?"

Glancing at Zhao Feng next to him, Zhang Yu smiled and replied, "My eldest brother said that I would be starting school soon and he wanted to buy me some school supplies."

Mr. Sun was an experienced man and he could tell from Zhang Yu’s expression that something was wrong.

However, he did not say much, but followed Zhang Yu's words and praised: "Xiao Feng is worthy of being a big brother. He knows how to love his younger brother. If you ask me, Xiao Feng is the best big brother in our courtyard."

After receiving the praise from the elders, Zhao Feng said, "Grandpa, you are too kind. Xiaoyu is my brother, and this is what I should do."

But in fact, the smile on the corners of his mouth could hardly be suppressed.

Zhang Yu also nodded beside him, saying sweet words one after another: "Who said it wasn't true? There is no one better than my eldest brother around here. I told him not to buy it, but my eldest brother insisted that we had to buy new ones when school starts, and he dragged me to the department store."

Zhang Yu and Mr. Sun talked back and forth and successfully confused Zhao Feng.

Before even leaving the hospital, Zhao Feng had made a lot of promises.

This includes but is not limited to buying Zhang Yu a new set of clothes and shoes, a new pen...

Seeing that they were almost done talking, Old Master Sun waved his hand and urged, "You two brothers should hurry up while there's still time. If you go too late, the department store will be crowded and you'll have to queue up to buy things."

"Okay, then we'll leave first, Master."

After saying goodbye to Grandpa Sun, Zhao Feng walked ahead with big strides. Zhang Yu, who was following behind him, turned back quietly and met Grandpa Sun's eyes.

The two smiled at each other, and the tacit understanding between them was self-evident.

As soon as the two brothers left the house, Zhang Guifang came out.

After going out, she turned left and right, and finally came to another large courtyard.

When she reached one of the rooms, Zhang Guifang stopped and reached out to knock on the door.

"Boom boom boom!"

"Who is it?" A female voice came from the room.

Then the sound of the door opening was heard.

When the woman looked up and saw Zhang Guifang, a smile instantly appeared on her face.

She warmly invited Zhang Guifang in: "It's Sister Guifang, come in quickly, come in quickly."

Zhang Guifang shook her head: "Xiao Li, I won't go in. I came to see you today because I have something to ask you for help."

"Sister Guifang, you know, if I can do it, I can definitely do it for you perfectly."

Zhang Guifang did not hide anything and directly stated her purpose.

After hearing this, the woman slapped her thigh and said, "This matter is not difficult, Sister Guifang, just leave it to me and don't worry."

Zhang Guifang advised with some concern: "Find a new face."

The woman nodded: "Sister Guifang, don't worry, my niece from my mother's family happened to come to see me from another place these two days, I asked her to help me put on a play."

Zhang Guifang took out a few food coupons from his pocket and stuffed them into the woman's pockets.

Looking at the food coupons in Zhang Guifang's hand, the woman's face turned serious: "Sister Guifang, what are you doing? We are friends, but you are being unfaithful."

Zhang Guifang stuffed the food coupons into the woman's hands and said, "I know we have a good relationship, but I can't let your niece work in vain. I didn't give her any money, so you can use these food coupons to buy some food for your niece. It can also be regarded as a gift from me as an elder to the child."

The woman nodded helplessly: "Then I'll take this ticket, but I won't allow it next time."

"Row!"
