Siheyuan: Rebirth of a comfortable life starts with Shazhu

One thing brings down another thing.

Yu Li talked herself hoarse at home, but still couldn't convince Ma Hua.

As a result of being scolded by Ho Yu-chu, Ma Hua obediently agreed to the requirement that he wear formal attire to work from now on.

Neither the couple stayed at the He family's house for dinner.

There was no other reason; Liu Ting wasn't home today. She went to Xiao Song's house to clean up He Yuan's doghouse.

Is my darling daughter pregnant?

Liu Ting now goes to the hospital every two days.

Although He Yuan has always been strong and healthy, she does not have the softness of those pampered young ladies.

But Liu Ting is, after all, a mother, and in caring for her daughter, she is no different from any other mother.

Of course, once Liu Ting was gone, she would continue to ramble on.

They criticized their daughter for being lazy and sloppy, and the young couple for their unhealthy eating habits...

However, that's the happy trouble that He Yuan has to bear.

He Yuzhu wholeheartedly agreed with Liu Ting's arrangement in this matter.

Otherwise, at home, the people she would grumble about would be him and the fourth child.

These days, my fourth son is like a little mouse, hiding whenever he sees Liu Ting.

As for when Liu Ting will be able to return to normal, it will probably have to wait until she gets used to this change in identity.

After all, even He Yuzhu hasn't fully accepted the fact that he'll be a grandfather next year.

Whenever He Yuzhu thinks about his new identity, he gets very excited.

After all, he had never experienced this novel feeling in his previous life.

In the previous life, the Jia family had three members, and naturally, there was also a next generation.

He Yuzhu was initially excited as well.

They are even quite willing to spend money.

As a result, people disliked Sha Zhu for being sloppy, for smoking and drinking, and for never letting him carry their child before the child learned to walk...

This made Sha Zhu realize that he, as an outsider, was ultimately an outsider.

I don't know if it's because I'm getting older.

Now, whenever He Yuzhu encounters something, he always compares it to his previous life.

That's why he gave MCA a scathing rebuke earlier.

He was terrified that MCA would end up looking like he did in his past life – so slovenly.

After leaving the He family's house, Ma Hua and Yu Li did not go home immediately.

Instead, they went directly to Xiushui Street, which must have been Yu Li's suggestion.

She went back to her parents' home and also met Yu Haitang.

To be honest, she didn't have a very good impression of her younger sister.

Although Yu Haitang hid it very well in front of her,

She was diligently tidying up the house in front of her.

But when a person willingly degenerates, that kind of stench cannot be concealed.

Yu Haitang smelled of cigarettes and alcohol, and her eyes couldn't hide the wantonness of spring.

Yu Li had seen far too much on Hong Kong Island.

Those prostitutes who accompanied the boss to restaurants had the exact same aura and temperament as Yu Haitang.

But Yu Li still held onto a sliver of hope.

One was her younger sister's pretense in front of her, and the other was her elderly parents covering for Yu Haitang.

She remained calm and composed in front of He Yuzhu today, not because she didn't care.

Rather, it was because she truly trained hard on Hong Kong Island.

She had already witnessed the clash of swords and the shadows of spears.

And what about such a trivial matter?
She believed what He Yuzhu said.

But she still wanted to come and confirm it.

"MCA, MCA, Director Ma..."

As soon as they entered Xiushui Street, Ma Hua heard a hoarse voice shouting.

He looked in the direction of the sound and saw Xu Damao sitting casually with his legs crossed in a doorway.

"Hey, Master Xu, hello, hello." Ma Hua knew these basic social etiquette rules.

After all, he had been the deputy director of the cafeteria.

However, his relationship with Xu Damao is hard to define. According to He Yuzhu's perspective, he would have to call Xu Damao "uncle".

He had called it that before, and Xu Damao found it awkward to hear, and he himself found it awkward to call it that.

Therefore, let's just discuss each side's perspective.

Furthermore, MCA has always looked down on Xu Da Mao's character and conduct.

He didn't understand why his master would make friends with such morally questionable people.

Don’t understand, but respect.

Given his rigid personality, it was already quite an achievement that he could at least exchange greetings with Xu Damao.

"Hey, Ma Hua, I didn't expect you to be such a cunning fellow with your thick eyebrows and big eyes!"
"Is this your new photo of Guo'er?" Xu Damao recognized Yu Li, but seeing that she looked completely different, he deliberately teased her in a frivolous tone.

"Hehehe... Master Xu, you're so funny."

"If my son Ma Hua does this kind of thing outside, you must tell me." Yu Li greeted him with a smile.

"Oh dear, oh dear, I'm so blind, I didn't recognize you."

Are you an overseas Chinese returning home?

"Or did you go somewhere for further studies?" Xu Damao teased Yu Li in his usual irreverent tone.

"I just came from my master's house." Yu Li's words immediately shattered Xu Damao's glibness.

Upon hearing He Yuzhu's name, Xu Damao instinctively dropped the teasing expression on his face, coughed lightly, and asked, "Ahem..."
Are you two taking a walk, or are you looking to buy something?

"Master Xu, I'd like to ask you about someone."

My master asked me to come and inquire about this.

Do you know Yu Haitang?
"My master asked me to come and inquire about her reputation." Yu Li looked at Xu Damao and asked tentatively.

Furthermore, his words still seemed to borrow influence from He Yuzhu.

She brought Ma Hua along today, hoping to run into someone she knew.

If they couldn't find her, the couple would have to ask around to find out about Yu Haitang's reputation.

After all, not everyone likes to talk badly about others.

If Yu Haitang really did something immoral.

Most people tend to stay out of things that don't concern them.

He dismissed the person who asked the question with a simple "I don't know him".

It was a rare encounter with Xu Damao, who at least showed some respect for He Yuzhu.

Yu Li naturally seized the opportunity and, taking advantage of Xu Damao's local connections, tried to find out exactly what kind of trouble Yu Haitang was up to.

Of course, she didn't expect to ask the person in question so easily.

Xu Damao's face was a kaleidoscope of expressions; it was truly a sight to behold.

He was so embarrassed he wished he could shrink back into the yard.

The key is that he knows what kind of relationship Yu Li and Yu Haitang have!

What can he say?

Is he related to the MCA through marriage?

Xu Damao stammered and avoided eye contact.

He was about to crush the purple clay teapot in his hand.

Of course, his is a cheap one, unlike the one He Daqing has.

"Master Xu, you should know that my wife and I work in a restaurant with my master's family."

My master asked me to inquire about this matter; he must have had his reasons.

"Just tell us the truth, don't worry about our feelings." Yu Li saw how conflicted Xu Damao was, and she knew perfectly well that she had finally found the right person to ask.

Sure enough, He Yuzhu specifically instructed Yu Li to come and inquire about this matter.

Xu Damao gritted his teeth and said in a low voice, "Yu Li, explain yourself first."
I didn't mean to ruin your sister's reputation.

As soon as Xu Damao spoke, Yu Li's heart sank to the bottom of the sea. (End of this chapter)
