Siheyuan: I found a wife right after I crossed over

Yang Chong hesitated for a moment, but still nodded: "Okay, let's go home."

He took the girl out of the shabby house and out of the alley.

The workers over there looked at him in surprise, especially Zhao Erhuai who had just spoken to him, his eyes widened.

"Chongzi, you..."

Before he could finish, Yang Chong said, "Er Huai, I have something to do today, please tell Uncle Li for me."

Uncle Li is the leader who leads them in the work.

Zhao Erhuai nodded in surprise. When he wanted to ask something, Yang Chong and the girl had already walked past them.

Several people were stunned.

After a long while, Zhao Erhuai finally said in a stammering voice: "Did Yang Chong... pick up a wife?"

A worker nearby snorted: "It's cheap, but he can't even take care of his own food, how can he support a wife if he picks up one?"

The work place was a bit far away, and the girl held Yang Chong's arm all the way, talking non-stop.

Either he asked about his family situation or he talked about his own situation.

It turned out that the girl's name was Yu Xiu, and she was from Henan. Because her family had suffered from a famine and could not make ends meet, she thought of coming to Sijiu City to live with her uncle.

But I didn't expect that when I fled famine and begged for food, I arrived in Sijiu City, only to find that my uncle's family had no longer lived here.

Now Yu Xiu was dumbfounded. She couldn't go out or go back, so she had to beg for food here.

I was almost bullied by gangsters.

Fortunately, I met Yang Chong.

When Yu Xiu heard Yang Chong say that he was the only one in his family, she immediately said, "Brother Chongzi, if you don't mind, I will be your wife in the future and we can live together. Don't worry, I won't eat for free and let you support me. I can work too."

Logically speaking, he should be happy to have found a wife for free, but Yang Chong looked at Yu Xiu's dirty face and couldn't be happy at all. He just kept saying, "Xiu'er, I'm helping you because I feel sorry for you. You really don't need it, really."

Seeing that he kept refusing, Yu Xiu seemed to realize something and slowly stopped talking, with her little mouth pouted.

The hand that was holding his arm slowly loosened, and she followed him with her head lowered.

Arriving at the entrance of the courtyard, Yang Chong stopped to look at Yu Xiu, then pointed at the gate and said, "We're here. I'll live here."

Yu Xiu then raised her head and looked at the large yard curiously.

"Let's go, let's go in." Yang Chong said and walked in first.

Yu Xiu quickly shouted, "Wait for me, Brother Chongzi," and followed him in.

In the front yard, the third uncle Yan Bugui was trying to light the stove. He tried for a long time but couldn't get it lit. Instead, a lot of smoke came out, which made Yan Bugui cry.

Yang Chong walked up to him and asked casually, "Uncle, can you light the stove?"

Yan Bugui raised his head, rubbed his eyes and took a look: "Is it Chongzi? Why did you come back so early today? Don't you want to carry the bag?"

As he spoke, he saw Yu Xiu following Yang Chong and was stunned: "Who is this?"

Yu Xiu looked at Yang Chong and didn't dare to speak.

Yang Chong said, "Uncle, this is a relative from my hometown. Her name is Yu Xiu. She will stay with me for two days."

Then he said to Yu Xiu: "Xiu'er, call him Third Uncle. He is an elementary school teacher and very knowledgeable."

Yu Xiu immediately bowed and said, "Hello, Third Master!"

Yan Bugui quickly said, "Okay, okay." But his two little eyes looked at Yu Xiu and Yang Chong with suspicion.

He obviously didn't believe that Yu Xiu was any relative of Yang Chong.

Yang Chong was too lazy to talk to him, and just said to Yu Xiu: "Let's go, I live in the middle courtyard at the back."

As he said this, he took Yu Xiu into the middle courtyard, and introduced as they walked: "This courtyard has three courtyards: front, middle, and back. Each courtyard has a master in charge."

Yu Xiu looked around the yard in surprise: "How many people can live in such a big yard?"

"About twenty households, about a hundred people."

Yang Chong said, and took her directly to a door in the west wing: "This is my home."

Chapter 3 The System Will Not Fail Me

When she heard that this was Yang Chong's home, Yu Xiu immediately came over excitedly, and couldn't wait to see what Yang Chong's residence looked like.

But before she got there, the curtain of a room next door was lifted, and an old woman as fat as a ball walked out.

"Hey, where did this beggar come from? How did he get into our yard? Yang Chong, hurry up and kick this beggar out!"

As soon as Jia Zhang came out, she saw Yu Xiu, whose hair was disheveled and clothes were tattered, and she immediately started howling.

This sound immediately startled everyone in the yard, and they all turned their heads to look over here.

Even the people in the house came out and looked at Yu Xiu, who was dressed in rags, with curiosity.

Yu Xiu was startled and instinctively hid behind Yang Chong, looking at the ferocious-looking old woman nervously.

Yang Chong immediately held her hand and whispered, "It's okay, don't be afraid, I'm here."

Then he took her hand and asked her to stand beside him, and said coldly to Jia Zhang: "Aunt Jia, she is not a beggar, she is a relative from my hometown, and she will live with me for a while in the future, so no one can drive her out."

Hearing these words, Yu Xiu's heart suddenly felt warm.

She has never felt this kind of warmth since she left her hometown.

It feels good to have someone protecting and looking after you.

Jia Zhang was stunned and looked at Yu Xiu in surprise, then at Yang Chong.

I can't quite believe my ears.

Because in her previous impression, the boy next door named Yang was honest, weak and easy to be bullied. Not to mention scolding his relatives, she wouldn't dare to say a word even if they scolded him to his face.

These days, Jia Zhang has even been thinking about how to take over the two rooms where this boy lives.

But what happened today? This kid actually dared to talk back to me.

Something's not quite right.

Also, who is this beggar-like girl to this man named Yang, and why is he so protective of her?

Jia Zhang was confused about what was going on and didn't dare to say anything for a while.

The people in the yard started talking in low voices.

"Hey, what happened today? Why is Yang Chong like a different person today? He even started arguing with Jia Zhang?"

"Yes, isn't this child usually very honest? Who said he never gets embarrassed and just smiles? What happened today? He even dared to talk back to Jia Zhang?"

"Also, where did that girl come from? Is she really his relative?"

"Tsk, relatives? Do you believe it? Have you ever seen any relatives come to his house?"

"That's right. Since he moved into this compound, I've never seen any relatives come to his house, especially after his parents left. And this girl looks so ragged and has a dirty face. She looks like a beggar on the street."

"Pfft! Is that the beggar Yang Chong picked up on the street as a relative?"

"I think this guy has finally come to his senses. Otherwise, with his conditions, how could he ever find a wife? Even though she's a beggar, at least she's a woman, right?"

"Hey, this guy must be out of his mind. He can't even get enough food these days, and he brings back a beggar. Isn't this just asking someone to steal his food?"

……

Amidst the whispers, Yang Chong turned around and glanced around coldly, saying, "Just mind your own business and stop gossiping."

After saying that, he opened the door and said to Yu Xiu: "Xiu'er, come in and warm up."

Yu Xiu nodded excitedly, and couldn't wait to rush into the house, looking at Yang Chong's house curiously and with new eyes.

Yang Chong's house is very clean.

Not only is it cleaned, but the furnishings are also clean.

Although there are two rooms, there is little furniture in them.

The outer room was empty except for a small table and three small stools.

There was only one bed in the inner room, with a thin mattress and a quilt.

There is also a simple cabinet next to it, but it looks very old and seems like it may fall apart at any time.

The whole house was very shabby, and it looked like it had only four walls and a roof, which was different from sleeping on the streets.

But Yu Xiu seemed very satisfied and excited. She looked around curiously and touched this and that. "Brother, you cleaned the house so cleanly. You are so diligent!"

Yang Chong thought: It’s not that I’m hardworking, it’s that I’m really poor. My house is so clean that even thieves don’t bother to come.

How can it not be clean?

I feel a little worried at the moment.

I brought the girl back home, but how do I eat?

You know, the piece of steamed bread I brought this morning was the only food left at home.

I originally thought that after getting paid for my work today, I could buy some food.

But the work was not completed and the wages were naturally gone.

Although he suddenly got a system, it seemed that this system was poorer than him.

The reward was only a space and a body transformation fluid.

Not even a bit of food was given.

What should I do? How about going to Aunt Wang's house in the yard and getting some flour to deal with the current situation?

As I thought, so happened. Just when I was thinking about how to eat, I heard Yu Xiu's stomach suddenly growl.

Yu Xiu blushed immediately and looked at Yang Chong embarrassedly.

Yang Chong said, "Sit down first. I'll go out for a while."

Having said that, he walked out of the house and prepared to go to Aunt Wang to borrow some food.

Mr. and Mrs. Wang Zhiguo, who lived in the middle courtyard, were the few people in the courtyard who treated Yang Chong well. When he had no work to do and could not earn any money, Aunt Wang would always invite him to her house for a meal.

My dear, there is more to come after this chapter. Please click on the next page to continue reading. There will be more exciting chapters later!

He had just walked out of the house and hadn't yet walked towards Aunt Wang's house when he suddenly heard the system sound.

"Ding! One sign-in opportunity found today. Do you want to sign in now?"

To Yang Chong, this voice was even more surprising than timely rain.

I said it, how could the system be so unreasonable? Isn’t there a sign-in function?

So, he immediately replied impatiently: "Sign in right away!"

"Ding! Congratulations to the host, you have received the sign-in reward, 100 yuan in cash, 1 pound of premium pork belly, 1 pound of potatoes, 3 pounds of flour, 3 pounds of rice, 1 pound of green onions, some seasonings, 2 heads of Chinese cabbage, 2 white radishes, 20 feet of cloth coupons, and 10 pounds of national food coupons."

Yang Chong let out a long sigh.

The system finally lived up to me. Although I don’t have several tons or thousands of kilograms of food and supplies like others, at least I have a source of food for now.

He thought for a moment, turned back into the house, took a cloth bag from the house under Yu Xiu's curious gaze, and then walked out again.

This time, he walked straight out of the yard and into an empty alley.

After checking that there was no one around, he put all the rewards he had just received into the bag from the space.

Then he did not go back immediately, but took out the body transformation liquid that the system had rewarded him and drank it.

After a short while, he felt warm all over, and a warm current flowed through his body.

There is also a burning sensation in the body.

When the burning sensation gradually subsided, he found that his body seemed to have become much stronger, even his arms and legs had become thicker, and he seemed to have endless energy.

Moreover, vision, hearing, and even reaction speed seem to have improved a lot.

It seems that this body transformation liquid is really effective, Yang Chong is very satisfied.

After waiting for another half an hour, he finally returned to the courtyard carrying the full bag.
