Siheyuan: Relieve stress and relieve worries

Chapter 744: Continuing to recall the seventh (grudge with the No. Courtyard)
When Sister Wang returned to the Military Control Commission, she told it that Yan Bugui's wife wanted to take care of Wang Zhan and his sister. Captain Li of the Military Control Commission, who was also the main person in charge of the Nanluoguxiang Military Committee, was a little hesitant. He told Sister Wang to go to Yan Bugui's home to inquire about the family and see what their reputation was.

Sister Wang went to Courtyard No. 95 in a hurry. When she got there, whoever she asked, all of them praised Yan Bugui and his wife. One said that Yang Ruihua was gentle and considerate, another said that Yang Ruihua was good at housekeeping, and some even said that Yang Ruihua could do everything, including frying, stir-frying, and cooking.

As many people said this, Sister Wang actually believed it. What she didn't know was that Yan Bugui had already informed every household in advance and even paid some sugar as a price. At that time, sugar was a military supply on the market and was very difficult to buy. The neighbors got a good deal and naturally spoke well of Yan Bugui and his wife.

After listening to Sister Wang's report, Captain Li felt that Yang Ruihua was the best person to take care of the siblings, so he made the decision and chose her.

That evening Sister Wang went to inform Yang Ruihua. Yan Bugui warmly entertained Sister Wang, making tea and bringing fruits. When Yan Bugui heard that Sister Wang was informing his wife to go to Wang Zhan's house together the next morning, his heart finally settled down and he kept thanking Sister Wang. Seeing that everything had been arranged, Sister Wang said goodbye.

After Wang Dajie left, Yang Ruihua looked at her husband in confusion and asked, "Old Yan, why do you insist on asking me to take care of those two children? Our children are still young, can I take care of them?"

Yan Bugui smiled mysteriously and said, "What's the big deal? You can see one child or two children. You can just take the children over. You didn't see that the people who came to see the brother and sister brought them so many things, many of which I have never seen before."

Yang Ruihua looked at Yan Bugui with even more doubt and asked, "No matter how many things there are, what does that have to do with us?"

Yan Bugui felt a bit disappointed and said, "You are stupid. If you take the children with you, they can also eat something. When you come back, you can bring some home. We may even save food. The two children are still young and easy to fool."

Yang Ruihua suddenly realized and said, "You are just too cunning. By the way, did you tell me how much you will pay me per month?"

"Not a small amount. I heard from Jia Zhang from the Intermediate Court that Li Cuilan said in person that it was 150,000 a month." Yan Bugui replied.

Yang Ruihua suddenly became happy and said, "It's really not a small amount. You only have a little over 200,000 yuan. Now our family has another way to make money."

Yan Bugui said complacently: "I can't escape from something I like."

Yang Ruihua gave her husband a thumbs up and praised him, "As expected of Yan Suanzi, he has made every possible plan."

At this time, in Yi Zhonghai's home in the Central Courtyard, Li Cuilan was restless, always thinking about what happened in the Yan family in the front yard in the past two days. The Yan family had been jumping up and down in the yard in the past two days, with the purpose of doing things at Wang Zhan's house.

Li Cuilan knew Yan Bugui's family very well. They were the kind of people who would take advantage of anyone. If his family succeeded, Wang Zhan and his sister would definitely suffer a lot.

While drinking, Yi Zhonghai looked at Li Cuilan who was frowning and asked, "What's wrong with you? Why are you so sad?"

Li Cuilan looked at Yi Zhonghai, sighed, and told him what she was worried about.

Yi Zhonghai sneered and said, "You don't even know how to manage your own family affairs, yet you still care about other people's lives. What do those two siblings have to do with you? Is it worth it for you to sigh here? If you have time, go to the backyard and spend more time with the old lady, and don't worry about other people's affairs."

After saying that, he started drinking alone and never looked at Li Cuilan again. Li Cuilan was a little angry at Yi Zhonghai's attitude, but she had always been submissive, so she turned around and ignored Yi Zhonghai.

Early the next morning, Sister Wang came to find Yang Ruihua, and they went to Wang Zhan's house together.

After knocking on the door for a long time, Wang Zhan's voice came from inside, asking, "Who is it?" "I'm your Aunt Wang." Sister Wang answered in a loud voice.

Wang Zhan quickly opened the door and welcomed Sister Wang in. He saw a fat woman following behind him. She was dressed very neatly and was looking at him with a smile. At this time, Wang Li also ran over from the backyard, greeted Sister Wang, then held her brother's clothes and stood there obediently.

Sister Wang introduced Wang Zhan and his sister, saying, "This is the person we found for you to take care of you. She is from the same courtyard as your mother Li. She will take care of you from now on. You can just call her Aunt Yang."

Wang Zhan bowed respectfully and said, "Hello, Aunt Yang, I am really sorry to bother you."

Wang Li also followed suit, bowed and said, "Hello, Aunt Yang!"

"Hello to you too. If you have any work in the future, just tell me. My child is about the same age as you and will be able to play with you in the future." Yang Ruihua said enthusiastically.

Sister Wang took Yang Ruihua around the yard, showing her where the well was, where the kitchen was, and introducing each room one by one. When they arrived at the backyard, Yang Ruihua opened his mouth in surprise and asked, "How come these two children are the only ones living in such a big yard?"

Sister Wang said without any concern: "Yes, the child's parents have made great contributions, and this is what they deserve."

Yang Ruihua immediately shut up and stopped asking questions. After Sister Wang finished introducing herself, she said, "Your job is to cook and wash dishes. Is that okay?"

Yang Ruihua had heard what Yan Bugui said yesterday, and he immediately patted his chest and said, "No problem, don't worry."

Sister Wang thought for a moment and said, "Then let's cook lunch here. I'll eat here too."

Sister Wang wanted to try Yang Ruihua's cooking to see if it was as good as her neighbors praised.

Yang Ruihua was already mentally prepared, so he went to the kitchen to cook. After a while, two dishes and a soup were ready. Yang Ruihua also made braised pork, and shredded potatoes with vinegar, and the soup was egg soup.

Sister Wang asked Yang Ruihua to sit down and eat together. Yang Ruihua said, "I won't eat. You guys eat yours and I'll come over to clean up. I'll go back to cook for my son and be back soon."

After saying that, Yang Ruihua stood up and walked out. Until now, Sister Wang is still very satisfied with Yang Ruihua's performance.

Sister Wang had lunch with the brother and sister. Although the food was not as exaggerated as the neighbors said, it tasted good. Just like that, Sister Wang was completely relieved.

Wang Zhan's current life is beyond his imagination. He has started to teach his sister to read, just like when his mother taught him. He has to set aside some time every morning to study with his sister.

In order to teach his younger sister better, Wang Zhan asked for some study necessities such as pens, ink, paper and inkstone when Sister Wang visited him again. He said that he wanted more study for himself and his sister and prepare for future schooling. Sister Wang was very happy and agreed readily. The next day, she brought him a lot of books, pens, ink, paper and inkstone, and other stationery books.

In addition to pens, ink, paper and inkstones and some old enlightenment books, there were many other books, some of which were rare ancient books. Sister Wang told Wang Zhan that these were confiscated from a capitalist's home and were of no use to him. When Captain Li heard that he wanted books, he sent them all to him.
