Siheyuan: Why does your brother beat you up every day, Shazhu?

……

In the truck cab, Liu Jun lit a cigarette, took a deep breath, exhaled a puff of smoke, and then asked:

"Weiguo, where exactly do you live?"

"Nanluoguxiang, Compound No. 95." He Weiguo replied.

"Oh! That one!" Liu Jun nodded and turned the steering wheel familiarly.

"I know that many workers from the steel mill live in that area. That courtyard is basically full of employees from the steel mill!"

"Yes!" He Weiguo nodded:

"My brother He Yuzhu is the cook in the canteen of the steel mill."

Liu Jun glanced at him sideways, a hint of envy on his face:

"Wow! That's great, bro! A dual-income family! That's rare these days!"

"I see you're still single at your age. Is your brother single too?"

"Well, there are only three of us brothers and sisters in our family, and none of us have started a family yet," He Weiguo admitted.

Liu Jun smacked his lips and sighed:

"That's even more incredible! With your family's foundation, if you manage it well, you will definitely have a good life!"

"Both of them work, and you're still holding the steering wheel... Tsk!"

He shook his head, his tone filled with a bit of envy and self-mockery from someone who had experienced this:

"Unlike me, my brother, who has a family to support, all depends on my meager salary. It looks glamorous on the outside, but the difficulties inside are only known to me!"

Chapter 29 Your brother is so good to you

Soon! The truck stopped steadily at the gate of No. 95 Compound.

Liu Jun turned off the engine, jumped out of the car and helped He Weiguo move things without saying a word.

People these days are very down-to-earth. It is common for them to lend a hand and they are not afraid of putting in the effort.

After unloading the things, the heaviest items were the disassembled iron bed frame and the thick bed board, which He Weiguo carried on his shoulders without hesitation.

Yu Shui was holding a large bag of new bedding and a bag of her own new clothes, and Liu Jun pushed the remaining two brand new Fei Ge bicycles over.

"Defend the country!" Liu Jun pushed two bicycles with genuine envy in his tone:

"You're quite generous! Buying two at once? This isn't something an average family can do!"

"The key is the ticket. It's so valuable! Brother, you're really good at this!"

He Weiguo carried the bed frame and smiled:

"Brother Liu, please stop looking down on me."

"If you want to do it, you must have the ability!"

"I've been away from home for too many years and haven't taken care of my younger brothers and sisters. I feel so bad for them. Now that I'm back, I want to do my best to get them something nice."

"I also need one for work. It's convenient."

Liu Jun followed behind, pushing the cart, and nodded sincerely:

"I admire that! Treating your family well is only natural! Nothing wrong with that!"

As the group walked into the front yard, Yan Bugui came out of the house as if he had smelled something.

The small truck parked at the door startled him at first. He adjusted his glasses, thinking he was dazzled.

Looking again, I saw the He siblings and a stranger carrying large and small bags, especially the stranger who was pushing two brand new Fei Ge bicycles!

Yan Bugui's eyes were instantly glued to the car and he couldn't move them away!

He was a bit angry about being beaten this morning, but now that he saw the bicycle, he didn't care anymore. He took two steps at a time and approached it. His eyes behind his glasses were fixed on the bicycle, and his voice was raised a few notches:

"Oh Weiguo! This...this was all bought by you?" His tone was full of disbelief.

Although He Weiguo disliked Yan Bugui, he nodded:

"Yeah, something happened?"

Yan Bugui didn't even hear the second half of the sentence. His fingers had already uncontrollably touched the cold bicycle beam, and his eyes looked as if he wanted to swallow the bicycle whole:

"Feige brand! This is a good brand! It should be one hundred and sixty, right? Tsk tsk tsk tsk..."

I was so envious that my mouth was watering.

He Weiguo found his useless appearance a little funny and said deliberately:

"Hey, Mr. Yan, if you like it, why don't you get one for yourself? You're a teacher at Red Star Primary School, so buying a bicycle shouldn't be a big deal, right?"

When Yan Bugui heard this, he forced a dry smile on his face and began to cry poor as usual:

"Oh, Weiguo! What are you talking about! My monthly salary is just that low, twenty or thirty yuan at most!"

"I have six mouths to feed at home! If I don't budget carefully, my whole family will starve! How can I compare to your family?"

He shook his head with an expression that said, "This is too difficult for me."

He Weiguo sneered in his heart: I would never believe you!

Yan Laoxi is cruel to others and even crueler to himself. He always cries poor to others. Who knows how much he has hidden in his little treasury?

This kind of person is so cruel that he can even harm himself.

He was too lazy to talk any more and took a step forward carrying the bed frame.

"Mr. Yan, could you please move aside? You're blocking the road so much that my friends are embarrassed to tell you off."

His tone was not harsh, but his meaning was clear: You're blocking the way.

After hearing this, Yan Bugui felt a little embarrassed and stepped aside angrily, but his eyes were still glued to the bicycle.

Watching He Weiguo and Liu Jun push the cart over, he curled his lips unwillingly and muttered softly:

"Tsk, what are you showing off for? Fei Ge is just so-so. If you ask me, Phoenix is ​​still the best..."

He is a typical example of someone who says grapes are sour because he can't have them.

He Weiguo didn't even bother to raise his eyelids. He simply ignored the noisy old fly and walked straight to the central courtyard with Liu Jun.

As soon as he reached the middle courtyard, Yu Shui jogged over to open the door:

"Brother, slow down, I'll go open the door first!"

He Weiguo and Liu Jun moved things into the house.

At this time, the two brothers Liu Guangtian and Liu Guangfu heard the noise and strolled over from the front yard, just in time to see Yu Shui directing at the door.

Liu Guangtian had sharp eyes and spotted the two brand new bicycles at a glance. His eyes widened instantly and he nudged his brother Liu Guangfu:

"Look!"

The two brothers' eyes were immediately drawn to the scene and they couldn't move their feet.

Liu Guangtian bravely asked:

"He...Brother He, did you buy this bicycle?"

He Weiguo was putting down the bed, dusting off the dust on his hands, and said casually:

"Well, one for me and one for Rainwater."

"For... for the rain?"

Liu Guangfu cried out involuntarily. The two brothers looked at each other and saw immense envy and a hint of grievance in each other's eyes.

When He Weiguo bought a bicycle for himself, they thought it was cool, but understandable.

But I also want to buy one for He Yushui, who is only 14 years old! This is too shocking!

The Liu family doesn’t even have a bicycle!

Dad Liu Haizhong only knows how to beat his son all day long. Bicycle? Don’t even think about it!

Can you own your own bicycle at the age of fourteen or fifteen?

This is simply a legend among their peers in Nanluoguxiang!

The two brothers looked at He Yushui at the same time, their eyes burning as if they were on fire.

Liu Guangtian licked his lips, with a hint of flattery:

"Sister Yushui...your brother is so good to you..." Her tone was sour.

Liu Guangfu was even more direct, staring at the rain eagerly:

"Sister Yushui! You...you learned how to ride a bike. Can you teach me? I want to learn too!"

That eagerness was so strong that it was almost wagging its tail.

The rain was a little overwhelmed by their sudden enthusiasm.

Liu Guangtian and Liu Guangfu are of similar age to her. Although they live in the same courtyard, they don’t interact much in daily life and can only be considered acquaintances at most.

Looking at the two brothers' eager eyes, she felt a little embarrassed to refuse directly, and subconsciously looked at He Weiguo with a look of help in her eyes.

He Weiguo saw her reaction.

Although these two guys are a bit materialistic, they at least took the initiative to ask if they needed help, so they don't have bad intentions.

At Yu Shui's age, it's not good to be bored all the time. He needs friends of the same age.

It's always a good thing to be able to play with children of the same age in the courtyard.

He smiled and said to the rain:

"Yushui, I gave you this car, so it's yours. It's up to you to decide who you want to lend it to or teach. I don't care about that."

He left the decision entirely to the rain.

After hearing what his eldest brother said, Yu Shui felt relieved. Looking at the Liu brothers' expectant eyes, he nodded.

"Okay. Once I learn it...if it's convenient, I'll teach you." She didn't say anything definite.

"Thank you, Sister Yushui! Thank you, Sister Yushui!"
