Siheyuan: Relieve stress and relieve worries

Chapter 893: Conspiracy between Mother-in-law and Daughter-in-law
Wang Zhan had a new love and forgot about his sister who had made great contributions. It was late at night and the sound of a cat meowing was heard outside, which pulled Wang Zhan back from his book. Turning around, he saw that his sister was asleep on another recliner in her clothes and covered with a blanket. There was a fallen picture book and half an apple on the ground.

Wang Zhan felt a little guilty, so he quickly stood up, picked up his sister, went into her room, took off her coat and trousers, and put her in the warm bed. The temperature of the kang was just right, not too hot. Anyway, Wang Zhan felt comfortable. The little girl opened her eyes drowsily and said, "My little picture book."

"I know. I've already kept it for you." Wang Zhan replied in a low voice.

Wang Li then turned around, buried her whole body in the quilt, and fell into a deep sleep.

Wang Zhan turned off the lights and went to bed. Apart from a few cats meowing, it was extremely quiet outside. Wang Zhan fell into a deep sleep after a few minutes.

The courtyard is full of the bustling atmosphere in the morning, especially Courtyard No. 95. Most of the people here are employees of the steel rolling mill. Except for the deaf old lady, all the people in the middle and back yards are employees of the steel rolling mill, just in different positions.

There are also two families in the front yard, one is the Li family who live in the back house, and the other is the Shi family who live in the hall. Because the working hours of the steel rolling mill are the same, every household starts working at about the same time. Few people eat breakfast at this time, but some families who do heavy physical work have to make breakfast for their men who go to work.

For a moment, the men were fetching water from the pool, some were washing themselves up, and some were fetching water for their own homes. The sounds of morning greetings came one after another. Some of the women in the family went to work at the stove, and some went to wake up the children. The older children were okay, because they knew that if they didn't get up their parents would really beat them, so they got up quickly to wash themselves up. For the younger children who couldn't get up, there was a symphony of wailing and scolding.

The same thing happened to Sha Zhu. When he got up, he saw that his sister had already fetched water and gone back, so he didn't rush and made breakfast for his sister at the stove. When breakfast was ready, He Yushui came over with a pot of hot water, and then he went to wash up. He went out the door carrying the toilet to the public toilet, and the neighbors greeted him warmly along the way.

When he came back, he saw a frowning Shazhu. He brought the porridge and asked, "What happened so early in the morning?"

Sha Zhu took a steamed bun made of two-grain flour, took a bite, and then said, "I don't know if it's my illusion, but I always feel that Liu Gen on the other side is avoiding me today."

"Really? Then it may be that I have done something to let you down. Hurry up and eat and go to work. You just won the advanced certificate yesterday. Don't be late again." He Yushui said jokingly.

Sha Zhu looked at his sister suspiciously. He took his sister's words to heart and thought about how to find an excuse to teach Liu Gen a lesson today and see what was going on. After making up his mind, Sha Zhu quickly ate breakfast and went straight to work.

After He Yushui finished eating, she locked the door and went to find Wang Zhan. At this time, Jia Zhangshi and Qin Huairu were staring at He Yushui through the window as she left.

Qin Huairu whispered, "Mom, do you think what Dongxu said is reliable? Is it worth it for us to help an old man?"

Jia Zhang sighed and said, "I also know there are risks. Let's not talk about other things, just the backyard. The Xu family alone is not easy to deal with. There is also Fatty Liu's family. Although Fatty Liu is pretentious all day long, he is actually nothing. But he has an eldest son. The boy looks very smart, but he is Master Dongxu after all. Whether he can be promoted to level four after returning from the machinery factory this time depends on his words. What can I do?"

Qin Huairu said angrily: "I don't know who came up with this bad idea. Isn't this making our family the target of public criticism?"

"Who else could it be?" Jia Zhang pointed to the backyard and continued, "Didn't you see that when Dongxu came back in the middle of the night, he didn't even go into his house first, but went straight to the backyard?"

Qin Huairu then thought of the scene that night, and then asked a little worriedly: "Mom, do you think that old lady in the backyard is also plotting against our family? Why do I feel that our family is at a disadvantage?"

Jia Zhang whispered, "She dares, a dead old lady. Alas, maybe your guess is right, but we have to endure it for now. We will think of a way after my son finishes his fourth level exam. By the way, don't get involved in this matter. If anything happens, you just need to cry. Otherwise, our family will really become a rat crossing the street." Qin Huairu nodded heavily. She was also worried about what role she should play. Jia Zhang gave the most correct choice.

No one heard the private conversation between the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law in the Jia family, but it seemed that Sha Zhu would not let go of Liu Gen, Yi Zhonghai's apprentice. Although he was not welcomed, he was still a apprentice.

Wang Zhan watched He Yushui coming, and then he pushed his tricycle out. Suddenly, He Yushui asked, "Who made the new cotton gloves for you?"

Wang Zhan said without paying any attention, "I asked Auntie Sun to make them. It's cold now, and the original gloves are a bit thin."

Wang Zhan didn't care about this matter, but He Yushui didn't say a word along the way. It turned out that the reason why He Yushui returned to his home these days was to make a new pair of gloves for Wang Zhan. Seeing that he was almost done, he suddenly saw that Wang Zhan actually had one, and he became a little unhappy.

Men are all careless. He Yushui, who didn't say a word along the way, didn't attract Wang Zhan's attention at all. Wang Li, however, figured out what was going on, but she didn't say anything along the way. She went straight to school and said goodbye to them with a smile when she entered the campus.

When he arrived at the campus, Xiaowu ran to Wang Zhan's classroom early in the morning. Xiaowu was very famous in Class 3 and everyone knew him, just because he was too familiar with Wang Zhan and Xiaosi and came every day during breaks.

Seeing Xiao Wu coming in front of him, Wang Zhan frowned and said, "It's already this late, and you still have time to run around. Don't you know that you have an exam?"

"I know. That's why I came to your side to see what review materials you are looking at." Xiaowu said, lying in front of Xiaosi.

Xiao Si said disdainfully: "You can use this time to conserve your energy and comfort your sister more at night, so that she won't stay up all night and cry all night long."

"You think I am like that? I am the kind of person who falls asleep as soon as I touch the pillow. What can I do?" Xiao Wu said proudly.

Wang Zhan sighed and said, "We shouldn't have given him extra lessons. He is so proud now."

Xiao Si smiled sinisterly and said, "Don't be fooled by your cheerfulness now, be careful that you will be put on the list later, haha!"

Xiao Wu went up to him and hit him, saying, "Then I'm a traitor. I can't stand with you. Let's go back to the courtyard and duel. By the way, what are we going to eat this weekend?"

Wang Zhan was speechless. Looking at Xiao Wu's sudden change of attitude, he said, "I don't have time. I have to go see Principal Ren. I haven't seen him for a long time."

Xiao Si and Xiao Wu looked at Wang Zhan with eager eyes. Xiao Wu said, "Let's go together?"

Wang Zhan knew that the two people had neither things nor money, so he nodded helplessly and agreed.
