Yi Zhonghai's Siheyuan

It was Friday in a blink of an eye. Yi Zhonghai was drinking tea at home after get off work when Liu Haizhong came to his house with two bottles of wine and said, "Old Yi, Old Yi, I am Old Liu."

Yi Zhonghai looked at Liu Haizhong and saw that he was a little confused because it was his first time to give a gift, so he said, "Lao Liu, what are you doing?"

Liu Haizhong: "Old Yi, didn't we have a misunderstanding before? Now I realize my mistake. Do you think the misunderstanding between us can be resolved?"

Yi Zhonghai immediately understood that Liu Haizhong came here to prevent him from having to rework the parts, so he pretended not to know and said, "Lao Liu, we all live in the same courtyard, how could there be any misunderstanding?"

Seeing that Yi Zhonghai was pretending to be confused, Liu Haizhong said, "Yes, there is no misunderstanding! I'll leave the wine here and I'll go back first." After saying that, he prepared to walk out of the room.

Yi Zhonghai saw that it was almost done, so he said, "Old Liu, take the things back, and don't talk nonsense in the yard anymore."

How could Liu Haizhong dare to take it back, so he smiled and said, "I'm going to go back and get busy first. You have to come when Guangqi gets married this Sunday."

Yi Zhonghai nodded, but still insisted that Liu Haizhong take the wine back.

Liu Haizhong could only walk out with the wine in his hand. As soon as he walked out of the room, his face suddenly darkened! In fact, he didn't want to submit to Yi Zhonghai like this, but there was nothing he could do about it.

Huang Yulan saw Liu Haizhong had gone back, and walked out from the inner room and said, "Zhonghai, what's wrong with Liu Haizhong? I remember that day in the yard, he was making things difficult for you."

Yi Zhonghai: "He can't stand it anymore. These days, the people from the engineering department in the factory have been looking for trouble with him. Didn't you see that he always comes back at the time when Yan Bugui closes the shop?"

Huang Yulan smiled and was about to say something when she suddenly ran outside and started retching. Yi Zhonghai looked at his wife retching and hurriedly patted Huang Yulan on the back.

Yi Zhonghai: "Yulan, how are you now? Are you feeling better?"

Huang Yulan: "I don't know why, but I've been feeling nauseous and wanting to vomit this month, and I'm tired and sleepy."

Yi Zhonghai guessed in his heart that Huang Yulan was pregnant, so he helped Huang Yulan into the house.

After arriving at the house, Yi Zhonghai asked, "Lift your arm out for me to see."

Huang Yulan raised her arm, Yi Zhonghai felt her pulse, took a quick look and said, "Yulan, you are pregnant now."

Huang Yulan burst into tears of joy, "Zhong Hai, is this true? That's great!"

At the same time, the scene of Huang Yulan vomiting was seen by the deaf old lady who was about to go to Sha Zhu's house.

The deaf old lady was an experienced person after all. Looking at Huang Yulan's retching face, she guessed that Yi Zhonghai's wife might be pregnant.

At the Yi family, Yi Zhonghai wrote some prescriptions for maintaining pregnancy and put them in a bag. He planned to buy some Chinese medicine for Huang Yulan from the pharmacy tomorrow.

At the He family, the deaf old lady saw that the food at Sha Zhu's house was getting worse and worse, so she walked over and said to Sha Zhu, "Zhu Zi, are you starting to support the Jia family with your salary again?"

Sha Zhu: "Grandma, Sister Qin's family is in trouble, so we neighbors will help if we can."

The deaf old lady said, "Even if you help the Jia family, you can't make your own family look like a home. Look at how the food has been declining recently."

Sha Zhu: "Old lady, Sister Qin's family is in even greater difficulty! Besides, our family is not bad either. Look, we have everything to eat and wear."

The deaf old lady saw the two plates of vegetables on the table and said helplessly, "Zhuzi, grandma will give you some meat tickets and money. Remember to stew braised pork for grandma."

Sha Zhu: "Okay, don't worry about my craftsmanship"

The deaf old lady said, "Okay, okay, good grandson, don't worry."

The grandma and grandson were talking in the room when Liu Haizhong knocked on the door. "Shazhu, is Shazhu home?"

Sha Zhu opened the door and saw that it was Liu Haizhong. He didn't understand why Liu Haizhong wanted to see him, so he asked, "Uncle Liu! What's the matter?"

When Liu Haizhong saw that Sha Zhu didn't invite him in, his face turned ugly and he said, "Sha Zhu, remember to come and cook when Guang Qi gets married this weekend." After that, he wanted to leave in a swagger.

Sha Zhu stopped Liu Haizhong and said, "Uncle Liu! The chef outside charges 5 yuan, and ours charges 4 yuan, plus I will add yuan as a share. Just give me yuan."

When Liu Haizhong saw that Sha Zhu actually asked him for money, he thought that people have changed beyond their conscience. He had not been the boss for just a few days, but even Sha Zhu dared to ask him for money.

Liu Haizhong: "Silly Zhu, we grew up in the same courtyard! You have to help when you need to, understand?"

Sha Zhu: "Without money, nothing can be discussed"

Liu Haizhong was so angry that his face began to tremble. At this time, the deaf old lady stood up and said, "Liu Haizhong, you have to pay for inviting our Zhuzi to the banquet! How can you invite people for free to hold a wedding?"

After Liu Haizhong broke up with the deaf old lady, he naturally would not give her face. However, the deaf old lady was of high seniority in this courtyard, so she said, "Three dollars is three dollars. I'll give it to Sha Zhu after the banquet! Is that okay?" After saying that, Liu Haizhong walked towards the backyard angrily. Since Yan Bugui was watching him recently and he couldn't beat the child, Liu Haizhong could only slap himself twice in a corner of the yard where no one could see him to vent his anger.

Sha Zhu: "Tsk, this Liu Haizhong! Who does he think he is? Yi Zhonghai invited me to a banquet and gave me 5 yuan! He is so stingy."

The deaf old lady patted Silly Zhu and said, "Well, Zhuzi, except for Yi Zhonghai who was the best in the past, the people in this courtyard are not easy to deal with."

Sha Zhu said disdainfully, "Grandma, why are you still speaking for Yi Zhonghai! Look at him now, how can he show respect for the elderly and love for the young?"

The deaf old lady fell silent after hearing Sha Zhu's words. Yes! The only person she had misjudged in her life was Yi Zhonghai. Before, Yi Zhonghai obeyed her in everything, and even his ex-wife Wu Xiulian obeyed her in everything. Unfortunately, Yi Zhonghai had become a different person since he woke up from the hospital, and he couldn't wait to stay away from this old lady.

When Liu Haizhong returned home, he saw Liu Guangtian and Liu Guangfu and started to curse them. He was not satisfied with the curse and instinctively wanted to take out his belt and beat Liu Guangtian and Liu Guangfu.

Liu Guangtian: "Dad, if you hit me, I will tell my uncle."

When Liu Haizhong heard that his own children were going to complain, he wanted to hit them with the belt in his hand but didn't dare to. He could only throw the belt away and gasp for breath, saying, "Rebellious sons! You two rebellious sons! Old woman, let them starve for a day starting tomorrow!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Liu Guangtian began to say, "Dad, it's illegal for us to starve!"

It turned out that Yan Bugui had been reading laws and regulations recently, especially those on child protection, in order to say a few words to Liu Guangtian and Liu Guangfu every day so as to widen the gap between Liu Haizhong and Liu Guangtian, and at the same time give Liu Haizhong a good lesson.

When Liu Haizhong heard what Liu Guangtian and his brother said, he was so angry that he fainted. Liu Guixiang, who was next to him, hurriedly called Liu Guangtian and asked him to notify the people in the hospital to help borrow a cart to carry Liu Haizhong to the hospital. It was not that Liu Guixiang didn't want to carry him, but she really couldn't lift the fat guy.

Liu Guangtian walked to the yard, went to Yan Bugui's house and knocked on the door. "Uncle, uncle, it's bad, my dad has fainted...Open the door quickly and help take him to the hospital."

When Yan Bugui heard that Liu Haizhong had fainted, he hurriedly opened the door and followed Liu Guangtian to the backyard, and at the same time called his eldest son, Yi Zhonghai and Sha Zhu.

Yi Zhonghai went to the next yard to borrow a cart and asked the people in the next yard to remember to ask Liu Haizhong for money.

Sha Zhu and Yan Jiecheng and others carried Liu Haizhong out of the backyard. Yan Jiecheng accidentally lost his balance and Liu Haizhong fell to the ground.

Liu Haizhong started cursing on the spot because of the pain. When Yan Jiecheng and Sha Zhu saw that Liu Haizhong was fine, they ignored him.

Liu Haizhong scolded his family as well as Siheyuan Shazhu and Yan Jiecheng, saying that they didn't even know how to lift a person.

Liu Guixiang hurriedly stepped forward to persuade Liu Haizhong, and expressed her gratitude to Yan Jiecheng and Sha Zhu.
