Siheyuan: I found a wife right after I crossed over

Jia Dongxu quickly put on his shoes and followed Yi Zhonghai out of the yard.

"Master, is there anything you can't say in the room? It's so dark now, where are you going?" Jia Dongxu asked carefully.

Yi Zhonghai still didn't say anything. He led him out of the yard and walked a distance. He stopped when he could no longer see the people in the yard. He asked kindly, "Dongxu, how have you been at home these past two days? Is life going well?"

Jia Dongxu said in annoyance: "Master, don't mention it. Didn't you see everything just now? Banggeng makes a fuss about eating meat every day, but I don't have the money to buy him meat! Now he's making a fuss again. I can't live like this anymore."

Yi Zhonghai asked: "Didn't you donate money last time?"

Jia Dongxu said angrily: "Master, you are so forgetful. Wasn't the last donation divided among three families? I only got 34 yuan. I haven't even warmed up the money yet and I have to pay that bastard another 30 yuan. Where is the money left?"

Yi Zhonghai sighed: "It's all Yang Chong's fault. If it weren't for him, Bang Geng would have eaten the meat long ago."

Jia Dongxu said angrily, "Isn't it? Now Banggeng is asking for meat every day. My mother asked me to borrow money from you to buy meat, but how can I ask you again? But my mother said that your master has no children and the old couple can't spend so much money. Banggeng is his disciple's grandson and also his own grandson. He will have to take care of him in his old age and see him to his grave. Who should he spend the money on if not Banggeng?"

Yi Zhonghai's face twitched twice, and he forced a smile and said, "You are right. Master will have to rely on you and Banggeng in the future. Of course, the money should be spent by Banggeng." Then he took out five yuan from his pocket and said, "Take this money back and buy meat for Banggeng tomorrow."

Jia Dongxu happily took the money, but asked curiously, "Master, you called me out of the room in the middle of the night just to give me money to buy meat for Banggeng?"

Yi Zhonghai looked around to see no one around, and whispered, "Dongxu, you watched the donations you received fly away, aren't you angry? Also, was it in vain that Bang Geng was beaten like that?"

Jia Dongxu spat fiercely: "Of course I am angry, I want to kill Yang Chong, but I can't beat him. What, Master, are you going to vent my anger for me?"

Chapter 72 Let’s Wait for This Marriage

Yi Zhonghai said: "We are both civilized people. How can we fight with a rough man like him? But we won't fight. We can let others teach him a lesson." As he said that, he put his mouth close to Jia Dongxu's ear and whispered something.

Jia Dongxu was delighted when he heard this and nodded repeatedly: "Master is right, we have to teach him a lesson. It would be best if we cut off one of his arms or legs. Let's see how he can oppose us in the future!"

After saying that, he frowned again: "But Master, people like Feng Wu are greedy for money. Can he help us if there is no benefit?"

Yi Zhonghai said, "Master has already prepared it." Then he took out twenty yuan from his pocket and said, "Go find Feng Wu now..."

……

The next day was Yan Jiecheng's engagement day, and his girlfriend Yu Li and her family were coming over. Yan Jiecheng got up early excitedly and urged his father Yan Bugui to pack the rabbits quickly.

Today is Sunday and most people in the hospital don't have to go to work. Yan Bugui doesn't have to go to school either, so naturally he skinned and gutted the rabbit early, and chopped it into thumb-sized pieces. Yan Bugui deliberately put away half of them.

It would be a pity to serve all such a big rabbit to guests, so it would be better to leave some for the whole family to satisfy their cravings.

As for the big pheasant, Yan Bugui also quietly collected some of it.

Nowadays, everyone's family conditions are similar, and having a meat dish is good enough. Besides, there are already two pieces of meat, so the girl's family can't complain. Yan Bugui has his own reasons.

The third aunt was also busy, but she was busy combing her youngest daughter Yan Jiedi's hair and borrowing bowls and chopsticks.

These days, everyone has just enough bowls and chopsticks, and even if there are spare ones, there are only one or two. If four or five more people come into the family at once, it is definitely not enough.

Not to mention that Yan Bugui always lives a thrifty life, so there is no way he would buy so many extra bowls and chopsticks to take up space.

And everyone is willing to help each other, because every family has happy events.

So, Sha Zhu, the chef of the steel rolling mill, naturally came over early in the morning to help cut vegetables and prepare side dishes. Today's meal for the Yu family depends entirely on him.

People in the yard also came over to help with some odd jobs, such as making fire, washing vegetables, etc. They were all talking about how blessed Third Aunt was, that her son had a formal job and her daughter-in-law was about to be married into the family. Third Aunt was so happy that her face was beaming.

Yan Jiecheng was a little restless and ran to the gate from time to time to look at Yu Li's figure.

I don’t know how many times I looked around, until it was almost eleven o’clock when the Yu family finally arrived.

Almost everyone in the courtyard gathered at the entrance of the middle courtyard to watch the excitement, wanting to see what the object of the solution looked like. Yang Xiaojuan and He Yushui also stood on tiptoe behind the crowd and stretched their necks to see.

There were four people from the Yu family, including Yu Li’s parents and her younger sister Yu Haitang.

She and He Yushui were classmates, but she was two years older than Yushui and had already started working, working in the broadcasting room of the steel mill, so she knew many people in the yard. As soon as she entered the yard, she saw Sha Zhu busy at work: "Master He, so you also live in this yard, where is Yushui, is she on vacation? I haven't seen her for half a year, I miss her a lot."

Sha Zhu was stunned: "It's Haitang, why are you here?"

Then he looked at Yu Li who was beside her and said, "So your sister is the one that Jie Cheng is looking for. Oh, why didn't you tell me earlier?" Then he pointed to the entrance of the middle courtyard and said, "Look, isn't that Yu Shui? She just had a two-day holiday and is staying at home."

He Yushui over there also waved quickly: "Haitang, I'm here." Yu Haitang quickly ran over, took He Yushui's hand and asked questions.

Over there, Yan Bugui was busy inviting the Yu family into the house. Yu Haitang said, "Sister, you guys go in first. Yu Shui and I will go to her room to play for a while." Then she followed Yu Shui and Yang Xiaojuan into the central courtyard.

Yan Bugui was stunned, and Yu's father quickly said, "It's okay. If young people see their classmates, let them go crazy. Don't pay attention to her."

"Yes, yes, yes, let's go inside first and call her when it's time for dinner."

Several people came into the house and had a conversation. Both Yu's father and mother looked very satisfied.

Yu Li and Yan Jiecheng have been dating for several months, so they have some understanding of the Yan family's conditions. Their previous concern was that Yan Jiecheng had been unemployed, so the Yu family had been hesitant and even thought about breaking up.

But now Yan Jiecheng has found a job, and is working as a fitter in a large state-owned steel rolling mill. Although he is still an apprentice now, his salary will be very high after he becomes a regular employee and passes the exam.

So Yu's father and mother are also very happy. When their daughter and son-in-law both work, their living conditions will be very good. When they are old, they can also count on their daughter's help.

However, although the two were very satisfied, they did not express their opinions immediately.

They also had to wait and see how the meal the Yan family would treat them today would turn out, because they had heard before that Yan Bugui was very stingy, and the family had only eaten pickles and steamed bread all year round, and they were afraid that their daughter would not be able to bear it after marrying into the family.

However, when the food prepared by Sha Zhu was served on the table, all their last concerns disappeared.

Because they saw that the Yan family had prepared eight dishes, six vegetarian dishes and two hot dishes, to entertain them. Although the six vegetarian dishes were nothing more than fancy dishes of radish and cabbage, the two meat dishes were real hard dishes.

One was stir-fried rabbit cubes, the other was braised chicken nuggets with potatoes. Sha Zhu's cooking skills were extraordinary. The dishes were all delicious and beautiful. As soon as they were served, Yu's father and mother exchanged glances secretly.

What I mean is that this father-in-law is honest and generous, and not at all as stingy as others say.

This marriage can be settled.

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!

As soon as Yan Bugui saw the expressions of the two people, he knew that today's meal was not in vain. He felt relieved and quickly asked Jie Cheng to call Yu Haitang to come for dinner.

Yu Haitang seemed to be having a good chat with He Yushui in the back. She came over with a smile and said, "I heard from Yushui that there will be chicken and rabbit meat today. I must try them. Dad, Mom, do you know? I heard from Yushui that Uncle Yan put a lot of thought into this meal. He went to Yang Chong to buy a big rabbit and a big pheasant. He also said that the rabbit weighed more than ten pounds, and the pheasant weighed several pounds."

Before he could finish his words, he noticed that something was wrong with his parents' faces.

Father and Mother Yu, who had been in a good mood just a moment ago, suddenly became a little depressed. They looked at the plate of diced rabbit and the plate of potato and chicken nuggets on the table, and somehow felt that they didn't smell as good as before.

Yan Bugui was still immersed in the joy of success. While inviting his future in-laws to start eating, he said with a smile, "Father-in-law and mother-in-law, you see the two children have been dating for such a long time, and they are both in love. Now that Jie Cheng's job is done, do you think we should arrange their marriage today?"

When Yan Jiecheng heard that they were getting down to business, he looked at Yu Li across from him excitedly.

Yu Li blushed and lowered her head.

At this time, Yu's father coughed and said, "Well, Mr. Yan, I think the children are still young, and Jie Cheng has just started working, so he should focus on his work. So, let's wait for the marriage until they are stable."

Chapter 73 My Dad Hides Meat

Yan Bugui couldn't understand why the happy event, which seemed to be a sure thing, suddenly changed direction.

I clearly saw Mr. and Mrs. Yu smiling happily just now, how come they suddenly said "let's talk about it later"?

The most annoying thing is that I spent 15 yuan to buy a rabbit and a chicken, but all the hard work turned out to be in vain. Didn't I spend 15 yuan in vain? Didn't I just lose the rabbit and the chicken?

Moreover, Yan Jiecheng was anxious to ask him: "Dad, how did you do this? Why didn't Yu Li's father agree?"

Yan Bugui said angrily: "You ask me, who should I ask? You all saw it just now. He was fine a while ago. How come he suddenly changed his expression?"

The third aunt said, "Jie Cheng, why don't you go ask Yu Li to find out whether it was our family that made her parents unhappy or what?"

Yan Jiecheng nodded. This was all he could do. “Okay, I’ll go ask Yu Li tonight.”

The wedding banquet ended in a bad mood, and a shadow was cast on the faces and hearts of the Yan family. No one could laugh anymore.

Only the three children Yan Jiefang, Yan Jiekuang and Yan Jiedi, who knew nothing, showed no sign of being superior. Yan Jiedi even ran over and said, "Mom, I want to eat meat, chicken and rabbit meat."

In order to entertain the in-laws today and avoid any unnecessary complications, Yan Bugui specially asked Yan Jiefang and Yan Jiekuang to take Yan Jiedi out to play, so the three children were not at home during the meal.

The third aunt said, "Be good, Jie Di. Today all the meat was eaten by the guests. Next time, let Jie Di eat it."

When Yan Jiedi heard that there was no more meat to eat, she opened her mouth and started crying.

Yan Jiekuang disagreed and ran over to say, "Mom, you are lying. We haven't finished eating the meat yet!"

The third aunt was stunned: "Why didn't you finish eating? Didn't you see that there was no meat on the plate?"

Yan Jiekuang said: "The meat on the plate is gone, but there is still some at home. When my father killed rabbits and chickens this morning, he also put away a large piece and hid it. I saw it all!"

The third aunt was stunned and turned to look at Yan Bugui in surprise.

Yan Bugui scratched his head: "The rabbit is too big, more than ten kilograms, and there are only four people in his family, how can they eat it all, it's a waste..."

The third aunt's face darkened, and she seemed to understand where the problem lay today.

Yang Chong also heard that the Yan family's engagement party ended in a bad mood today. Everyone in the yard was talking about it, but he didn't have the time to pay attention.

He had been busy with Yang Xiaojuan's hut all day, measuring the size of the doors and windows, and first went to a used furniture store to try his luck, but his luck was not good, as there was no suitable size.

So I just found a carpenter and asked him to make a new one for me. Although it cost some money, it increased the safety factor and made the new house more beautiful, so it was worth it.

While making new doors and windows, Yang Chong also asked the master to make some new furniture. A wooden bed and a table were necessary, and a wardrobe was also made, which are essential for girls.

After finishing all these, Yang Chong did not forget that there was one thing he had not done, which was that he had not distributed rabbits and pheasants to the Zhao brothers today, so he rode his bicycle out.

When they arrived at the agreed place, the Zhao brothers were already waiting there.

When the Zhao brothers saw him, they didn't rush to get the things, but lowered their voices and said, "Brother, there are a few people behind you acting sneaky, they are probably not good people."

Yang Chong nodded. He had already noticed that someone had been following him since he came out of the courtyard, all the way here.

And it seemed that there were more than one person coming, at least five or six people.

Zhao Xiaoyi whispered, "Brother, there's a guy I know, he's not a good person. Is he eyeing what we have and wants to rob us?"

Zhao Xiaoer said: "Damn it, he dares to set his sights on me, beat him up!"

Yang Chong nodded. He didn't want to cause trouble, but he was definitely not afraid of it. Since someone dared to follow him, he must have bad intentions and must be dealt with.

He handed the bag in his hand to Zhao Xiaoyi: "You two take the things and go over first, pretend nothing happened, block the entrance of the alley, and don't let any of them escape."

The two looked at each other, nodded, and left without saying a word.

They both knew Yang Chong's abilities. These five or six people were no match for him, so they guarded the entrance of the alley to prevent anyone from escaping.

Yang Chong had been observing those figures out of the corner of his eye, and saw the Zhao brothers taking their things and leaving, and no one followed them.

It seems that these people's targets are themselves, not things.

Yang Chong didn't know where these people came from, so he simply took out a cigarette, lit it, and sat down on a rock next to him to smoke.

After a while, there were a few more feet in front of me.

When I looked up, I saw the face of an old acquaintance, the gangster Feng Wu.

It was Feng Wu who had intended to do something bad to Yu Xiu, but ended up getting beaten up by himself.

"Feng Wu?" Yang Chong was a little surprised. He hadn't seen Feng Wu for many days. If he wanted revenge, he wouldn't have to wait until today, right?

Feng Wu snorted, "Mr. Yang, do you still recognize your Fifth Master? I thought you no longer recognized your Fifth Master after you became rich. But that's just fine, since you still recognize him, then be sensible. To tell you the truth, someone paid me to teach you a lesson, and you ruined my good deeds last time, so let's settle the old and new accounts together!"

He waved his hand and said, "Beat him! And then break one of his hands!"

Several people around him rushed forward.

Yang Chong raised his hand and said, "Wait a minute." He stood up and said, "Feng Wu, you said someone paid you to teach me a lesson?"

Feng Wu nodded: "That's right, I'm not afraid to tell you, if you know what's best for you, you can just chop off one of your thumbs, and Master Wu will give you face and let you go, so that we can report to the other side."

Yang Chong smiled while holding a cigarette in his mouth: "What if I don't agree?"

Feng Wuyi glared: "You don't agree? Then I'll use your whole hand!"

A thug named Shi Saner said, "Okay, Fifth Brother, why waste time talking to him? Just do it!"

As he said that, he pulled out a wooden stick from behind and smashed it towards Yang Chong's head.

The other thugs also took out their weapons, ready to charge forward.

Yang Chong suddenly opened his mouth and spit, and the flaming red cigarette butt in his mouth flew towards Shi Saner's face.

Shi Saner was caught off guard and quickly reached out to block it, but the stick in his hand hit him on the head.

Suddenly he cried out, covered his face and fell down.

The others were stunned, and before they could react what was happening, Yang Chong raised his hand and grabbed the wrist of one of the guys, snatching the machete from his hand.
