Siheyuan: Rebirth 54 years ago, neighbor is stupid

Soon Li Zhenmin arrived at Courtyard No. 95.

In the courtyard, people had just finished their meal. Li Tieguo and He Daqing were chatting, while Jiang Tao and the old lady were sewing shoe soles. When they saw Liu Zhenmin coming, a look of confusion flashed across their faces.

"Zhenmin, why are you here? Have you eaten?"

Jiang Tao immediately stood up and greeted them, then went to prepare food.

The old lady of the Hu family suddenly remembered something, and her heart tightened. She immediately put down the needlework in her hands and stood up and said, "Zhenmin is back, come in and sit down."

Li Zhenmin smiled and replied, "I just had dinner outside with Xiaohu and Xiaolong. I came here because Xiaoyong left some books at home, so I came to pick them up."

Because it was a temporary excuse, it was a bit far-fetched. The neighbors in the courtyard would naturally not think too much about it if they didn't know about it. However, if the Li family, who were educated youth, thought about it carefully, they would feel that it was abnormal.

The old lady's heart tightened again and her face trembled unnaturally.

Jiang Tao, like the old lady, became nervous all of a sudden. They were wondering if Hu Yong had made any mistake with Li Zhenmin recently, so Li Zhenmin came over to inquire or discuss something.

Seeing this, Jiang Tao shouted to Li Tieguo, who was chatting with He Daqing and didn't react much, "Old Li, you know Xiaoyong's things better, come back and help find them."

"This..." Li Tieguo subconsciously wanted to say what it had to do with him, but when he saw that Jiang Tao and the old lady looked a little unhappy, he also stood up: "Okay, I'll look for it."

This scene did not attract much attention from other neighbors.

After all, Li Zhenmin is also a member of the compound and often comes here to visit. He is not the kind of outsider who only comes back once every few months or even a year. Everyone is accustomed to Li Zhenmin's frequent visits, so they don't deliberately come to say hello or curry favor with him.

Entered the house.

Because they were afraid of attracting the attention of the neighbors, they couldn't close the door directly, so they went directly to the side room.

In courtyard houses, the main house will usually be renovated with a curtain or a wooden wall to divide the main house into two smaller rooms.

On one side is the living room and on the other side is the bedroom.

Nowadays, there are many children in the family, and many families live together. It is inconvenient for boys and girls to mix, so it is necessary to separate them like this.

If there are many people, some homes will be divided into more than two rooms.

It can be considered as full utilization of space.

Although there is now ample space away from home, the templates that were used for isolation have not been removed yet, so it is still an incomplete compartment that cannot be seen from outside the door.

After entering the cubicle, Jiang Tao took the initiative to ask: "Zhenmin, is Xiaoyong in trouble?"

Li Zhenmin glanced around and said, "No, but it's hard to explain this matter in a short time."

Jiang Tao said anxiously, "You don't have to hide it from us. We all know what happened in the factory some time ago. You were angry with Ma Lanlan. Although we don't understand what happened for the time being, it must be related to Xiaoyong. You came here today to tell us about Xiaoyong and Ma Lanlan, right?"

Although the reason is not very accurate, the result is not wrong.

Li Zhenmin thought for a moment and said, "It's hard to explain this in a short time. Why don't we go outside and have a cup of tea and talk about it slowly. Grandma, you can come with us."

Jiang Tao and the old lady were obviously interested.

But Li Tieguo said at this time: "No, just talk about it at home. You really think that the neighbors don't know about some things. They didn't say it just because they were embarrassed. It's not a solution for you to continue like this. The problem has been solved, right? And going outside now will make others more curious. Let's talk about it here. Others won't be stupid enough to ask when they know we are talking about it."

Li Zhenmin couldn't help but be surprised.

Li Tieguo continued, "I only heard about Ma Lanlan and Yu Xiaoyong from other people, so I don't know much about it. You guys have always said that you should give the child some space, so I didn't interfere. But now Zhenmin came to me directly, so something must have happened."

Hearing this, the old lady's face flickered and she didn't know how to start.

Li Zhenmin didn't want the atmosphere to be too awkward, so he said directly: "I don't know what happened to you at home. I just want to tell you why I came here today."

"I recently felt that Xiaoyong seemed to have changed a lot over the years. After investigation, I found that it had a lot to do with Ma Lanlan. Xiaoyong also told me some things..."

Then Li Zhenmin roughly told these things that God knew.

Basically, Hu Yong cared too much about Ma Lanlan's feelings and was always led by her. After investigation, he found that Ma Lanlan was not a good match, so he did not approve of this marriage and planned to come here to ask everyone's opinions.

"Besides, this is not something that has happened in just one or two days. You should have sensed that something was wrong with Xiaoyong. Why didn't you tell me? Aren't you afraid that he will go astray if you just leave him alone?"

As Li Zhenmin spoke, the expressions of the other three became more and more ugly, especially Jiang Tao and the old lady.

After Li Zhenmin finished speaking, Li Tieguo opened his mouth, wanting to explain but not knowing where to start. The old lady took the initiative to say, "Zhenmin, you have been very busy these years, and we don't want to disturb you. Besides, Xiaoyong has grown up and has his own ideas. It's not easy for us as elders to say too much."

Li Zhenmin looked at Li Tieguo. Li Tieguo sighed heavily but did not answer.

Jiang Tao was struggling, as if she wanted to say something but was too embarrassed or afraid to say it directly.

The old lady then said, "Zhenmin, Xiaoyong didn't do anything wrong. He should know his limits. He has been working hard these years and treating Ma Lanlan well, which proves that he values ​​feelings. Ma Lanlan may be a little willful at times, but she comes from a good family and is educated. As long as it's not too excessive, young people's affairs can be understood."

After hearing this, Li Zhenmin understood everything.

Wasn't the old lady saying that he was making a fuss out of nothing and interfering in Hu Yong's feelings and even marriage?

Between the lines, it seems to reveal that his grandson is very outstanding and his partner is also very outstanding, and their marriage will also help Xiaoyong's future career.

This is a disguised way of saying that your surname is Li and Xiaoyong's surname is Hu, and you will not really leave everything to Xiaoyong. Now that Xiaoyong has improved and has gained ability, and has found a good partner, you should not interfere too much.

Li Zhenmin couldn't help but feel like he couldn't breathe.

He knew it was normal for the old man to have such thoughts, but he didn't expect it to reach this extent. Could it be that the Li family hadn't given enough in these years? Wasn't it enough to prove that they treated you, the Hu family, as a family?

"Grandma, there is no need to be so tactful when saying some things. If you think I am not worthy of interfering in these matters, you can just say it directly. Anyway, you are the elder, and I cannot go against you and dare not say anything wrong about you."
