The Red Era: The Crowd in the Siheyuan

Chapter 539 Liu Haizhong is released after serving his sentence

After greeting Yi Zhonghai, He Yuzhu and Xu Damao exchanged a few words with Liu Guangqi and his three brothers, and then continued to the backyard.

When I turned around, I saw the big face of Jia Zhang reflected on the window of Jia's house.
Compared with last year, Jia Zhang has lost a lot of weight.
I really don't have the money to make trouble.

Seeing this, He Yuzhu teased Xu Damao in a low voice.
"Da Mao, is your teacher Ran really attracted to Sophora japonica? If that's the case, I'm afraid you'll have to spend a lot of money when you get married, otherwise Aunt Zhang's appetite won't be satisfied.
She was planning to use the betrothal gifts from her two granddaughters to make up for the shortfall and find a wife for Banggeng."

When Xu Damao heard He Yuzhu ask this, he was also thinking about the lawsuit.
It is undeniable that Huaihua is indeed good, and it is not a bad thing for a college student to marry into their family, but the Jia family is indeed troublesome. If he marries into such a family, there will definitely be a lot of troubles waiting for him.
But who made Ran Qiuye and his son like her?

The future life belongs to the child himself. If he wants to struggle, let him do it. What can his father say?

"What can I do? Qiuye and I will give you some support, and you can figure out the rest on your own.
I can't possibly agree to any outrageous requests from Aunt Zhang. If she really asks for too much, I will definitely want to take care of the two of us. As for what Wenyuan thinks, I can't take it into account."

He Yuzhu and Xu Damao walked towards the backyard while talking. Jia Zhang looked out the window and then looked at Qin Huairu with a gloating expression.
"Look at your brother-in-law and his family, they are just like lapdogs, eager to be the filial sons and grandsons of Old Yi.
It really makes me laugh to death.

I don’t know if Liu Haizhong will be so angry that he will die after he comes out of the cell in two years.”

After hearing what Jia Zhang said, Qin Huairu felt a little worried. Ever since she broke up with Yi Zhonghai and ruined Banggeng's marriage, her mother-in-law had become a little weird, often looking at the door across the window.

Jia Zhang was just a woman, suffering from illness and relying on painkillers to survive, so she couldn't do anything extraordinary.

He might be in jail now.

"Mom, please stop looking at the other side. Even if you look at Uncle Yi every day, he won't change his mind.
Haven't you noticed that so many neighbors have been rushing to curry favor with him? Uncle Yi and Aunt Yi are smiling all day long and look much younger.

Compare it with when I was with our family,
We ask for this and that all the time and almost took away our house. It would be strange if he could reconcile with us.

Maybe Uncle Liu will stop arguing with Liu Guangqi and Liu Guangtian after he knows this."

"Bullshit, it's just Liu Haizhong. I don't know about Guangtian and Guangfu. Liu Haizhong treats their eldest son like a treasure. If he knew that he was eager to be a filial son and grandson of Yi Zhonghai, he would be so angry that he would die on the spot and would not be able to close his eyes even after he died.

If you don’t believe me, just wait and see. It’s only two years away. Wait until the bangs come out and we’ll see.”

Seeing Jia Zhang's furious look, Qin Huairu couldn't help but shook her head and then talked about her son.
"Mom, how have you thought about what I told you before?

If you ask me, given our family's current situation, it's already great that Bang Geng'er can marry a country girl. Don't always think about finding him a city girl, that's unrealistic."

When Jia Zhang heard her daughter-in-law talking about her eldest grandson's marriage, her face immediately turned gloomy and she said angrily,
"Qin Huairu, don't even think about it. Our Banggeng is a formal worker in the city. If he marries a rural woman like his father, how will he live in the future without a fixed salary?
I don’t care. Even if Banggeng doesn’t hire workers, my granddaughter-in-law must be a city dweller.

Besides, I just saw Xu Damao. If we wait for another two years until Huaihua graduates from university, and the Xu family doesn't give a large gift, then don't even think about marrying Huaihua." Seeing Jia Zhang's firm attitude, Qin Huairu didn't know what to say.

"Mom, you sold the Sophora japonica flowers,
If you ask Xu Damao for a high price for the bride price, even if Teacher Ran and Xu Damao don't say anything on the surface, they will definitely make things difficult for Huaihua behind her back.
We only have this promising college student in our family. If you make Huaihua disloyal, she will definitely not care about her brothers and sisters in the future. This is not worth the loss."

But Jia Zhang was an old-fashioned person, who had been taught the Three Obediences and Four Virtues since childhood, and she didn't care about her granddaughter's life or death.

"Humph!

A married girl is like spilled water. If Huaihua has any good things in the future, they will come to her husband's family first. Our Jia family will not get much benefit from it.
The only one we can rely on is Banggeng'er. If I don't consider him, who else should I consider?

It would be best if Damao can come up with it. If not, I will marry Huaihua to someone else. She is a female college student, and the rich people in the alley will definitely fight over her.
Anyway, I'll take the betrothal gift first, and whether she marries or not is her own business."

It seems that things have been rushed to 1983.
At the beginning of this year, Daxia held its first Spring Festival Gala. Not long after, Aunt Yi also died of a sudden heart attack.

As luck would have it, when Liu Guangqi, Liu Guangtian, and Liu Guangfu were wearing mourning clothes and crying loudly at Aunt Yi's funeral,

Liu Haizhong, who was over 70 years old, was released early due to good behavior in the cell. As he walked into the gate of the courtyard with his luggage, he saw this scene that made his blood pressure soar.

Accompanied by heavy mourning music, there was a burst of shouting.
"Liu Guangqi, what are you doing, you little bastard?"

Liu Haizhong's return directly interrupted the sad atmosphere of the courtyard. The neighbors looked at the angry Liu Haizhong and then at the three Liu brothers kneeling in front of Aunt Yi's spirit, and suddenly they looked strange.

Xu Damao, who was standing in front of the door of the east wing, whispered to He Yuzhu with a gloating look on his face,

"Zhu Zi, now we are going to have a good show.
I wonder if Uncle Liu will be pissed to death after knowing what Liu Guangqi and the other two have done in the past few years."

He Yuzhu did not answer Xu Damao's question. At this time, he was just like everyone else, looking at Liu Haizhong, who had just been released from the trading floor and whom he had not seen for more than six years.

He had a crew cut and wore a loose cotton coat that leaked air everywhere. He had lost a lot of weight and looked much more dull than when he was taken away.

I guess he received a very good education in that trading cell.

Not only the neighbors in the courtyard, but also the three Liu Guangqi brothers were somewhat surprised to see their father suddenly appear in the courtyard.
But that was all. He was not too panicked by the anger in his bangs.

Liu Guangtian, the rebellious son in Liu Haizhong's eyes, responded confidently,
"What's the big deal? Aunt Yi has watched us grow up, and she has no children. So what's wrong with us brothers wearing mourning for her? Xu Damao and Yan Jiecheng haven't had the chance to do so yet."
