Siheyuan: My life is my decision

He Yuzhu walked out of the Hongxing Steel Rolling Mill. He was thinking all the way that his sister He Yuzhu would have a holiday tomorrow and he would be back tonight. It had been a long time since he had made delicious food for her. Should he buy some good food to supplement her with it?

It's also the original owner's fault. He was so focused on Widow Qin that he completely ignored his sister. No wonder he cheated on him so much later. He was completely asking for it.

He Yuzhu shook his head and walked towards the pigeon market not far from the steel rolling mill. Private stalls are not allowed to do business these days. That is speculation and you will be jailed if caught.

However, every era has a bright side and a dark side. In this era, buying anything in state-owned stores requires a ticket. It’s not enough if you have money, but there is a fixed number of tickets, and some people don’t have them at all.

So what should we do? So the Pigeon Market was born. As long as you have money, you can buy anything here, and the service is not bad. Unlike state-owned units, where the salespersons are all above their heads.

Sometimes some ‘characters’ disguise themselves and often visit these pigeon markets.

After walking for about ten minutes, He Yuzhu came to the 'Pigeon Market', a characteristic of this era. He tightened his collar, then let go of his scarf, wrapping it around his nose and mouth, leaving only a pair of eyes exposed.

Inside, I bought a pair of pig's trotters, a piece of fish, and then two more vegetables. Suddenly I remembered that I ran out of seasonings at home, so I bought all the seasonings, and quickly left the pigeon market with these things.

In the courtyard, Xu Damao's daughter-in-law, Lou Xiao'e, felt a little sleepy after eating at noon, and then she slept at home until the evening.

I found that it was getting dark, so I prepared to wash and cook, and went out with the dishes to be washed. The last time Xu Damao went to the countryside to play a movie, the two old hens given by the cooperative in the countryside were clucking.

It was very quiet today. Lou Xiao'e was still wondering and turned to look at

"Hey, where are the chickens? Why is there one missing chicken?"

"Who stole my chicken?"

Lou Xiao'e's voice rang out in the courtyard, alarming everyone in the courtyard. This courtyard is divided into a front yard, a middle yard and a backyard. There is an uncle in charge of each yard.

Xu Damao and the others live in the middle courtyard. The person in charge is the second uncle, who also lives in the middle courtyard. He has no ability. He always likes to be an official and wants to unseat the first uncle. In addition to the two of them, there are more than a dozen families living there. There are more than 20 households with front and back yards.

There were nearly a hundred people. When everyone heard this movement, many people gathered around to watch the fun.

When the three uncles heard the sound, they also gathered around.

"Lou Xiao'e, what's wrong?" Yi Zhonghai squeezed in.

The eldest uncle, Yi Zhonghai, lives in the backyard. There is also a deaf old lady in the backyard. She is a five-guarantee household. She also participated in the revolution when she was young.

She never bothered to participate in the debates in the courtyard. Of course, don't get into trouble with her. She liked Silly Zhu very much and treated him like her own grandson.

In the front yard lived the Shazhu family, the Jia family, the third uncle Yanbu Guiyi, and several other residents.

"Master, my chickens have been stolen," Lou Xiao'e looked at the master and said.

"The chicken was stolen?"

The uncle's heart skipped a beat. There was a thief in this courtyard. If word spread, this year's progress would be lost. no

"Did you not close it properly and ran away?"

"No, I checked and the chicken coop is fine and not broken," Lou Xiao'e argued.

"Lao Yi, this is serious. There is a thief in our courtyard. This is a big deal. I can see a whole hospital meeting."

The second uncle suddenly interrupted and said

"Liu Haizhong, what are you talking about? How can you conclude that it was stolen by people in our courtyard?" the uncle retorted.

"Yeah yeah..."

"We are all from the same courtyard, how can we be a thief?"

"Yes, yes, you are right..."

The crowd of onlookers all commented that because the First Master usually has a relatively high prestige, there are more people who agree with him.

"Master, I can't tell. I kept this chicken coop well and it's not broken. It wasn't stolen. How did it get out?"

"This..."

"Lou Xiao'e is right. The chicken coop is not broken. It is indeed impossible for him to escape by himself," the third uncle said.

"Then Lou Xiao'e, what do you think we should do?" The uncle kicked the ball back to Lou Xiao'e

"Wait until my Damao comes back and then hold a hospital-wide meeting."

"Second uncle, what do you think?" First uncle Yi Zhonghai looked at the second uncle

"I think we must hold a hospital-wide meeting, isn't it? Third uncle?" Second uncle Liu Haizhong looked at third uncle Yan Bugui with eyes shining.

"I support Lou Xiao'e. We must find out why this chicken disappeared."

The first uncle looked at the second uncle and the third uncle and felt unhappy. He thought it was a trivial matter and there was no need to hold a general meeting of the hospital. Maybe this year's progress would be lost.

But now the second uncle and the third uncle insist on opening it, so they have no choice but to agree.

"Okay, let's all disperse. Let's have a meeting in the middle courtyard after dinner in the evening."

After saying that, he took the lead and left with the eldest mother. Everyone saw that there was nothing to do, so they all dispersed.

He Yuzhu walked into the courtyard with vegetables. As soon as he entered, he found that the third uncle's family, the Jia family and two other residents were walking out of the courtyard.

"Hey, Silly Zhu, what day are you buying so many vegetables on?" said the third uncle Yan Bugui, looking at the pig's trotters and fish in the hands of Silly Zhu who came in.

"Uncle Silly, my sister will have a rainy day off tomorrow. I haven't been able to make up for her in a long time."

"Si Zhu, why are you scolding people? How can you speak?" The third uncle Yan Bugui looked at He Yuzhu unhappily.

"Silly uncle, why did I curse, no?" He Yuzhu showed an innocent expression on his face

"Hey, you just called me stupid, weren't you scolding me?"

"Oh, it turns out that stupid is a curse word, so why don't you call me Silly Zhu?"

"No, it's not me who named you silly Zhu. Everyone in this courtyard has been calling you this name for more than ten years."

"I didn't care before. From today on, you are not allowed to call me Silly Zhu anymore," He Yuzhu said expressionlessly.

"Okay, okay, don't shout. I can call you Zhuzhu." The third uncle looked at the expression on He Yuzhu's face and said quickly.

"Zhuzi, have you finished eating all this food? How about the third uncle buy some wine and drink two cups with you?" The third uncle looked at the dish in He Yuzhu's hand and rolled his eyes.

"Okay, thank you, no need." After He Yuzhu said that, he turned around and walked back to his home. The Jia family didn't even look at it.

"Hey, what's going on with this silly Zhu today?" The third uncle kept thinking in his mind

"Silly Zhu, Silly Zhu" Qin Huairu was still surprised when he saw He Yuzhu ignoring her, but when he saw again, he had already run back.

"Didn't you hear what I just said?" He Yuzhu turned around and stared at Qin Huairu.

"Zhuzi, what's wrong with you? I didn't offend you."

Qin Huairu looked at He Yuzhu's expressionless face, his eyes immediately turned red, and tears were about to fall. For those who didn't know, he really thought that He Yuzhu was bullying her.

"Huh!" He Yuzhu ignored her, went back home and closed the door.

"bang"

.....

"This silly Zhu is so shameless. He bought so many things without even saying he was filial to us." Jia Zhang said suddenly.

"Ha..." The third uncle sneered and took his family back.

"What are you looking at, Qin Huairu, don't think I don't know, Silly Zhu likes you, I tell you, don't even think about it, you want to be with him, unless I die"

Jia Zhang looked at Qin Huairu and said fiercely

"Mom, what are you talking about? How could I be with him?"

"Don't you know in your heart that if you don't go back and cook, you want to starve me to death. It's useless at all."

"..."

Qin Huairu hated her mother-in-law to death, but she couldn't contradict her too much for fear that others would say she was unfilial. She also thought about remarrying, but she couldn't bear to do so considering the three children at home.
