The Beginning of a Courtyard House: Sixty Years of Internal Strength

"Yes, sir."

Now whenever we have free time, ah!

I start taking notes whenever I have free time.

It should be fine in about another week.

Li Jianguo nodded, feeling that the two were indeed making rapid progress.

Feifei noticed that Li Jianguo didn't have a hand holding the teacup.

The sensible girl brought the brewed tea to Li Jianguo's lips.

Li Jianguo spent the whole morning playing mahjong with them.

Lanlan truly lives up to her title of "God of Mahjong".

Only Yiyi could fight her to a standstill.

The other two women were no match for them.

At lunchtime, Li Jianguo noticed that the twins weren't eating much.

He sighed helplessly.

Gao Yuanyuan spoke up.

"Brother Jianguo, could you go and move the stone slab with the footprints over this afternoon?"

Then we can practice the Lingbo Weibu (a martial arts technique).

"Okay, I can teach the sisters some knowledge about meridians this afternoon."

I'll go move it over after I finish eating.

In the afternoon, Li Jianguo went to the vicinity of the wooden house and moved over a few stone slabs.

It was placed in a corner at the entrance of the cave.

The three girls then began practicing.

Li Jianguo then called Yiyi and Feifei over.

He personally guided them on how to use the acupoints on their bodies.

When he pointed out the two women's bound feet.

Wait until they take off their shoes and socks.

Li Jianguo was also struck dumb.

He had never seen such perfect jade feet.

Pure white as snow, exquisite and delicate.

So delicate it could be held in one hand, like a work of art.

Pure white and delicate.

Delicate and tender, like mutton fat jade.

It exudes a soft, lustrous sheen.

Surprisingly, it also has a faint, pleasant fragrance.

On the fair and tender soles of her feet.

Five white toes, tinged with pink and translucent, were neatly arranged side by side.

It is round and smooth, with flowing lines.

Li Jianguo couldn't help but hold it in his hand.

They are truly spineless and weak.

It feels like my feet have no bones.

Her skin is also very smooth.

It has a soft, smooth, and warm feel.

The two women blushed with embarrassment.

Li Jianguo asked, trembling.

Why are your feet like this?

Yi Yi was embarrassed to explain.

"Sir, it's because he was treated with a secret medicine since childhood, along with corrective devices made of cloth strips."

Li Jianguo swallowed hard.

After calming myself down, I continued to explain the knowledge about acupoints to them.

I told them the story in an ambiguous atmosphere.

Then Li Jianguo hurriedly said.

"You two should learn from each other. I'm going to check on them."

Li Jianguo then left in a panic.

Yi Yi chuckled as she looked at Li Jianguo's disheveled appearance.

My sister and I put on our shoes and socks together.

Li Jianguo calmed himself down.

If they hadn't left, I would have executed them on the spot.

Li Jianguo then began instructing the three women on the Lingbo Weibu (a martial arts technique).

An afternoon passed in the blink of an eye.

After a simple dinner.

Li Jianguo then left the space.

He felt a pang of regret at that moment.

They won't even eat meat that's right in front of them.

You should just chew it up and swallow it.

Just as Li Jianguo reached the gate of the courtyard, he ran into Yan Bugui.

He stopped Li Jianguo directly and said in a trembling voice.

"Jianguo, it's over, my eldest son went for a checkup."

Yan Jiecheng was also infertile.

"Do you think the Yan family line will really end up extinct?"

Li Jianguo didn't expect the news to spread today, so he quickly encouraged everyone to join in.

"Teacher Yan, you should take Jiefang and Jie Kuang for a check-up."

Don't be afraid to spend money; this is a big deal.

Yan Bugui gritted his teeth and made up his mind.

"Yes, you're right. I do need to take them to check it out tomorrow."

"Jianguo, you can't say those two are also childless, can you?"

Li Jianguo then asked indirectly.

"Teacher Yan, did either of them get kicked by Sha Zhu?"

Yan Bugui was also gritting his teeth at this moment.

"Jianguo, you have no idea, most of the children in the compound have been kicked by Shazhu."

They were both, of course, no exception.

"Oh, Teacher Yan."

There's no use in being anxious now; let's wait for the test results tomorrow.

Yan Bugui had no choice but to accept his fate.

"That's all we can do."

Li Jianguo walked towards the Intermediate People's Court.

But in his heart, he was secretly wondering if he had done something to them.

After a long time, I can't quite remember it anymore.

Let's try again, though.

Even if the treatment has already been carried out, it can still help solidify the therapeutic effect.

Then, when passing by the Yan family's house.

Li Jianguo quietly patted the two brothers on the back twice more.

Li Jianguo then didn't go home, but went directly to the backyard.

The main reason is that he did indeed take action against Liu Guangqi.

However, he completely forgot whether his two younger brothers had actually carried out the act.

He went to the backyard and spoke to Xu Damao.

"Da Mao, come to my house for drinks tonight."

Xu Damao replied.

"Jianguo, I'll pack up and head over."

As Li Jianguo turned to walk towards the Intermediate People's Court, he passed by the Liu family's house.

I also gave Liu Guangtian and Liu Guangfu another one.

They really forgot whether they had them sterilized or not.

It seems like it happened before, but whatever, let's just leave it at that.

After Li Jianguo returned home, he told Yao Yao.

"Yaoyao, go fry some peanuts. Xu Damao is coming over for drinks tonight."

Yao Yao nodded and went to the kitchen, while Yu Li went straight home.

Before long, Yao Yao had finished cooking and also cooked a few eggs.

At this moment, Xu Damao arrived at the Li family's house carrying a bottle of Lotus White wine.

The two have been drinking buddies for a long time.

Without exchanging any polite words, the two began toasting each other.

Just after we'd had two drinks, Yan Jiecheng walked in, carrying a bottle of Moutai.

Li Jianguo and Xu Damao exchanged a glance.

They both saw shock in each other's eyes.

Goodness gracious, this must be a huge blow to Brother Jie Cheng.

But no? This tightwad is actually going to drink Moutai.

Yan Jiecheng, with a dark expression, silently opened the bottle of wine.

At this moment, Yao Yao also brought over a wine glass.

After Yan Jiecheng and the other two collapsed, they said sadly.

"Two older brothers."

There's nothing more to say; it's all in the wine.

With that, Yan Jiecheng downed a cup of wine in a somber mood.

Li Jianguo and Xu Damao also lost money.

Seeing that Yan Jiecheng was quite devastated, Xu Damao comforted his fellow sufferer.

"Jiecheng, you don't need to be sad."

"We can take some medicine and let it rest; maybe there's still a chance it will get better."

Yan Jiecheng completely lost interest at this point.

"Brother Da Mao, don't try to comfort me."

The doctor told me that the chances of recovery are extremely slim.

It's basically impossible.

Now I can't even stand up, let alone have children.

Xu Damao was also sighing at this time.

"Let's get to the point and not talk about that anymore."

Let's drown our sorrows in wine.

As they were talking, they bumped into Yan Jiecheng again.

Li Jianguo seized this opportunity to fan the flames.

"Brothers, now is not the time to be discouraged."

We need to step up our efforts and get Sha Zhu, the culprit, imprisoned.

Now his two brothers are kicked like this.

"Shazhu's second child has already been born, how can we tolerate this?"
