The door of the courtyard house has been welded dead

"You lost your chicken, and I lost more than 70 yuan. How many chickens can I buy with that money?"

"You are Banggeng's aunt, and Ma Hua is Banggeng's uncle-in-law. Logically, I should not ask you for compensation. Why are you asking me for anything~!"

Early in the morning, every household got up early. The weather was better, and the strong winds and blizzards had subsided. Everyone was busy washing in front of the faucet in the middle courtyard, preparing to go out to visit relatives.

The relatives hadn't left yet and were queuing up to get water, but Qin Jingru and He Yuzhu were here again, torturing each other because of the chicken.

"Our Ma family has severed all ties with Qin Huairu's family. Do you know what it means to draw a line in the sand? Do you understand~!"

"I thought about it all night. That day, the neighbors all wanted to call the police station and send Banggeng back to the orphanage, but you refused to do so. You insisted on keeping him, saying you wanted to have a meal with him and even brought him into your house. You deserved it for having your money stolen."

"That has nothing to do with our family. The chicken laid an egg on the morning of New Year's Day, and I was so happy. But it turned out to be gone. If you hadn't insisted on keeping it for dinner, would I have thrown away my chicken? You are..., you are...!"

Qin Jingru couldn't explain what this was because of her limited education. In her opinion, the loss of her own chicken should be blamed on Shazhu.

"Let the wolf in~!"

Liu Guangfu, who was squatting on the side with a kettle with the lid opened in front of him, listened to the argument between the two families and found it quite interesting. He also supplemented Qin Jingru's comments.

"Yes, you are just letting the wolf in. If you hadn't kept the chickens, my chickens wouldn't have been lost. Tell me, do you blame me or not~!"

Picking up the toothbrush and stirring the teacup, Qin Jingru glared at Sha Zhu fiercely.

"You let the wolf into the house. Don't blame me. It was the second uncle who opened the door~!"

He put his head in the washbasin, gurgling bubbles out. The cold tap water made him completely sober. He touched his ears and raised his chin towards Old Yan, thinking it was a good idea to shift the blame.

"Silly Zhu, what you said is wrong. Your uncle didn't leave any sticks. I strongly support him and send him to the police station immediately. Hey, get out of the way after washing and don't rub it. You don't have to go out to visit relatives today. No matter how clean you wash, it's useless~!"

Old Yan was unhappy when he heard this. He pushed Sha Zhu away and anxiously put the kettle under the faucet. He couldn't afford to take the blame. Not to mention the 70-plus yuan, Old Yan's family didn't even get to eat old hen during the New Year~!

"Uncle, let me be fair. I think you two can't make a clear conclusion by arguing over and over again. Go report to the police. Silly Zhu, if Bang Geng didn't spend all the money he stole from you, you can still get some back. Jingru, if your old hen wasn't eaten, you can get it back too!"

Le Hehe took the water and gave his seat to Liu Guangfu. Before leaving, Yan Bugui looked at the two people staring at each other and came up with a good idea.

"I'm not going!"

"I'm not going~!"

Even though the two of them were arguing in the yard about money and chickens, when it came to the most critical moment, when it came to reporting the case, they both almost simultaneously rejected Lao Yan's suggestion.

The two looked at each other, snorted coldly, and turned away from each other. It looked like they had a bad fate in their previous life and continued to torture each other in this life.

"I asked you to report it to the police, but you refused to go. Since you are not going, then you two should stop arguing. Jingru, being angry is not good for the baby in your belly. Shazhu, please be quiet during the New Year~!"

"The best punishment for Banggeng is to leave him alone. I've been a teacher all my life and have seen all kinds of children, including many poor students. Banggeng has been a bad kid since he was young. Can he change? No way~!"

"He's twelve years old now, so this little tree has basically grown into shape. His parents died early, so no one cares about him anymore. Anyway, from now on, no matter who sees Banggeng coming back to the yard, just chase him out. Otherwise, if something gets lost, you can't blame others~!"

Old Yan's words left the two speechless. Even if Qin Jingru didn't say anything, she guessed that it was because of her sister's past. Sha Zhu saw the shadow of his childhood in Bang Geng, which led to the two of them preferring to suffer in silence rather than report the case.

If you two let him do what he wants, then he won't be allowed to enter the yard again, so as to avoid disputes in the future which will involve him as the goalkeeper.

Of course, the most important thing is that as a goalkeeper, he is also worried that the stick will harm his family. Let alone losing more than 70 yuan, even if it is just a car wheel, he will be heartbroken.

"No problem, no problem. From now on, let's do it this way~!"

"From now on, no matter who sees Banggeng coming back to the yard, chase him out immediately~!"

After stopping the two men from grinding their teeth, Yan Bugui picked up the kettle and shouted in the yard. Through these daily trivial matters, he continued to encroach on the position of the boss. Even if he did not organize a meeting of the whole courtyard, Old Yan also had a way.

Li Feng lifted the door curtain, walked out of the house, opened his mouth, stretched his arms, and yawned loudly.

He didn't sleep well last night and had a strange dream about the world of immortal cultivation.

Bang Geng relied on the skills inherited from Sha Zhu to become a thief saint. He wanted to avenge his mother. Then someone from a decent organization used the Four Swords of Zhu Xian, but failed to kill Bang Geng.

Just then, early in the morning, Old Yan was heard yelling again, and the neighbors in the courtyard issued a notice prohibiting sticks from entering the courtyard.

Li Feng felt that perhaps, the Four Swords of Zhu Xian in the world of cultivating immortals might not be as useful as 762. Practice had proven that not only the Saint of Thieves, but even the Lord of Morality and the Holy Mother of White Lotus could all be defeated with one shot.

"They are spoiling them. As the second uncle, I absolutely cannot spoil them. I can't even let this little bastard in the door~!"

Arriving at the door of his house, Old Yan greeted Li Feng, and seeing that he had no objection, he happily went into the house.

"Come out, hurry up, don't dawdle, we'll go to your grandparents' house later~!" After sorting out his documents, Li Feng took out the plane ticket and looked at it. It was from the Civil Aviation Administration, a passenger ticket from Beijing to Yuezhou, and the fare was one hundred and fifty-eight yuan and seventy-nine cents. This was a one-way ticket, and children's tickets were half price.

Today I am going to visit relatives in the south. Huang's family will take my son-in-law and granddaughter to Yuezhou to meet some people and get to know the family.

This was his first trip to the south, and Huihui’s second trip. The last time, it was Huang’s father and mother who took her there.

Yaqin's grandfather has passed away, but his grandmother is still alive. She has not yet met her grandson-in-law, which was agreed upon last year.

Li Hui rubbed her eyes, lifted the curtain and walked out, pouting and looking unhappy.

This little girl likes to stay in bed when the weather gets cold. Even though her mother Liu Yin is anxious, she lets her do as she pleases. Only Li Feng can control this little brat.

"Everything has been packed. I just checked it again and I saw that there is still some space. I stuffed a few sausages in it. Don't lose your manners when you go there. You have to be generous and decent. If you meet an elder, you have to call them. If they say something unpleasant, you have to listen. Our family owes Yaqin anyway, and we can't embarrass our in-laws~!"

"And Huihui, when you go to grandma's house, you must listen to your dad. Also, be sweet-mouthed. When grandpa and grandma give you red envelopes, you must pretend not to want them and wave your hands to refuse. If they force them on you, just let your dad keep it~!"

He tucked Huihui's collar and explained everything to the older and younger ones, all about the social etiquette among relatives.

Li Feng, who was listening nearby, was totally overwhelmed.

The mother was more enthusiastic than her son-in-law. Of course, even though she was married and her son was a factory director, in her eyes, he was still like a big child.

This nagging, going back and forth, has never stopped since the Chinese New Year.

Anyway, he seemed very worried about the two children, one big and one small.

"No, I can't give it to Dad. I want to give the red envelope to Grandma and let her put it in it. Grandma buys me eggs to eat. Grandma is so good to me~!"

The little guy is one year older. I don’t know who he inherited this from, but he has become smarter. His little mouth is as sweet as honey, which makes Liu Yin smile so happily.

Li Feng glared at her, and Li Hui immediately hid behind Liu Yin, tilted her head, and stuck out her tongue at her father.

"I won't give it to you, so you can be mean to me. My grandma is the best to me, so I have to give my money to her~!"

After taking a deep breath, Li Feng couldn't bear it anymore. He grabbed Li Hui's cotton jacket by the back of her neck, lifted her up on the spot, and slapped her twice on the butt.

"Now that you have grown up, I will return your money to you. Where did you get the money~!"

Washbasin, towel, hot water, washing face, brushing teeth, Li Feng was worried about everything.

He raised the little kid with great difficulty and in his eyes, he seemed to have become his stepfather.

Fortunately it was a girl. If it was a boy, Li Feng would have beaten her with a belt.

"Are you going on a long journey?"

The old Yan family next door might have seen Li Feng loading luggage onto his bicycle through the glass, so they came out to ask about it.

Several other families in the front yard also opened the curtains and poked their heads out curiously. There were too many things on the back seat of the bicycle, it seemed like they were going on a long journey rather than visiting relatives.

"Let's go to Yaqin's hometown and visit relatives. Xiaofeng hasn't been there for so many years. The old lady wants to see her. Grandson-in-law, you must go~!"

"It's time to go. Why bring so many things? It looks like the distance is not close enough."

He nodded seriously, and Old Yan, holding the peanuts in his hand, continued to ask where to go.

"In the south, Yuezhou. I don't know exactly where it is, but it's not too far away. It's warmer there than here, and people there have never seen snow. I'll go there with my in-laws, take a plane, and be back in a few days~!"

Liu Yin said it lightly, but it made Old Yan take a breath of cold air immediately.

Wow, he’s taking a plane again. He takes a plane even when visiting relatives. Until now, he has never even seen what the inside of a plane looks like.

The fried peanuts in his mouth suddenly lost their fragrance. The neighbors in the yard started chattering as if they were full of energy and were about to fly airplanes.

“Does flying cost money?”

"Nonsense, taking the train costs money. Yuezhou is in the southernmost part of the country, so it must be expensive."

"It's not cheap, it costs more than 400 yuan for a round trip. There's nothing I can do about it. I have to spend the money~!"

Speaking of this, Liu Yin's heart bleeds a little. With more than 400 yuan, the adults and children can raise enough to buy another house. If she doesn't share it with the neighbors, she will feel upset.

After she complained, she felt less upset. After all, flying is a great honor these days. But the neighbors in the courtyard were very upset... (End of this chapter)
