Siheyuan: The eldest brother of the He family, abuses Shazhu at the beginning

If He Yuzhu had put all his heart on Qin Huairu in the past and ignored He Yushui a lot, he might not have noticed the change in He Yushui's expression.

But now He Yuzhu has come to his senses and started to pay attention to this sister whom he had neglected.

It was easy to see He Yushui's expression. Faced with He Yushui's seemingly enthusiastic greetings, He Yuzhu didn't know what to say and had to remain silent.

Just like that, the house fell into deathly silence.

Soon, He Yuliang's words broke the silence.

He Yuliang said to He Yuzhu expressionlessly:

"You're back? Come on, give me the chicken. I'll go cook. You just stay here and chat with Yu Shui. The meal will be ready soon."

After saying that, He Yuliang snatched the two chickens from He Yuzhu, walked into the kitchen and closed the door, leaving enough space for the brother and sister.

He Yuzhu now felt a little uncomfortable. He rubbed his hands and forced a smile on his face. He sat in He Yuliang's seat and chatted dryly with He Yushui.

"Yushui, how are you doing in school? Is anyone bullying you?"

"I'm doing OK in school, and no one bullies me."

"That's good. Hey, how does this chicken soup taste? It's cooked by your brother myself."

"Well, it's ok, it tastes pretty good."

The two of them chatted awkwardly, and slowly, they talked less and less, and gradually fell into silence.

Looking at He Yushui who was drinking chicken soup in silence, He Yuzhu felt a little numb.

If it was the original He Yuzhu, he would not think that there was anything wrong with the current situation. He would just think that He Yushui was more introverted and didn't want to talk.

I don’t care anyway.

But the situation is different now. He Yuzhu, who broke free from Qin Huairu's charm, immediately found that he seemed a little sorry for He Yushui.

Not only did he ignore her on weekdays, he also gave all the lunch boxes originally intended for her to Qin Huairu, and also gave the money his eldest brother sent back together with her share as a subsidy to Qin Huairu.

Taking all these factors into account, He Yuzhu felt a little guilty towards He Yushui.

After seeing He Yushui's malnourished face and his expression changing several times when he saw himself, his sense of guilt increased further.

By now, He Yuzhu was no longer able to face He Yushui alone, and could only hope that He Yuliang could prepare the meal quickly and end his torment.

He Yuliang did not disappoint his expectations. Soon, He Yuliang came out with two large plates full of big plate chicken and braised chicken pieces.

She put the dishes on the table, served He Yushui a bowl of rice, wiped her hands with her apron, and said to the stunned He Yushui:

"Why are you still standing there? Come eat."

Looking at the delicious dishes in front of him, He Yushui swallowed hard and said to He Yuliang in shock:

"Brother, when did your cooking skills become so good?"

"Hey, it's just so-so. When I was in the northwest, I met an old man. He saw that I was very talented and insisted on taking me in as his apprentice.

I had no choice but to learn a few tricks from him, and after combining them with our family’s Tan family dishes, my cooking skills improved by leaps and bounds without me noticing.”

He Yuliang picked up a piece of chicken and put it in He Yushui's bowl, and said enthusiastically:

"Come and eat quickly. This dish won't taste good if it gets cold. Zhuzi, go get two bowls of rice."

"Oh, I know."

He Yushui was very satisfied with the meal. Thinking about it carefully, He Yushui had not eaten so full for a long time.

Among the three, He Yushui ate the most. He Yuliang even suspected that if He Yushui had not drunk half a pot of chicken soup before, she would have been able to finish both dishes by herself.

Compared to He Yushui who was well-fed and drunk, He Yuzhu could clearly feel that he was absent-minded at the moment.

Even when he was eating just now, he looked worried and didn't even eat a few bites of He Yuliang's food.

"Brother, Brother, I'm full. You can go back and rest first. I'll take care of this."

"Wait, don't clean up yet, I have something to tell you."

He Yuliang stopped He Yushui who was cleaning up the dishes, looked at He Yuliang who was a little fidgeting, and said coldly:

"Zhu Zi, can you explain to me why Yu Shui looks so malnourished? I remember I should send you money every month, right?"

"Brother, I..."

After hearing what He Yuliang said, He Yuzhu lowered his head in shame. He Yushui on the side continued to clean up the dishes as if he saw nothing.

"Zhu Zi, don't tell me that you not only gave Qin Huairu's family your lunch boxes and wages, but also gave them the money I sent you."

He Yuzhu finally couldn't stand He Yuliang's slightly cold words anymore. His legs softened and he knelt in front of He Yuliang. He lowered his head and shouted in self-destruction:

"Yes! That's right! I gave all the money you sent us to Qin Huairu. I was bewitched. I am not a human being. I left my sister alone to support a widow. Brother, please punish me."

He Yuliang finally couldn't suppress the anger in his heart anymore, and kicked He Yuzhu, who was kneeling on the ground, to He Yushui's feet, and roared:

"You are not the one you need to apologize to, but your sister whom you have always ignored. Go over and apologize now, and see if Yu Shuiyuan will forgive you!"

He Yuzhu suddenly realized, turned around quickly, knelt in front of He Yushui, lowered his head, and said sincerely:

"Yushui, I am sorry for you and made you suffer all these years. Can you please forgive me?"

He Yushui ignored He Yuzhu who was kneeling at his feet, and said to He Yuliang gently:

"Sorry, big brother, I'm a little sleepy. I'll leave this mess to you."

After saying that, He Yushui, holding the plate in his hand, was about to go back to his room.

He Yuzhu knew clearly that if he let He Yushui go like this, he would never get He Yushui's forgiveness in this lifetime.

"Yushui, wait, brother, I..."

"boom!"

He Yushui didn't wait for He Yuzhu to finish speaking, but slammed the plate in his hand onto He Yuzhu's head. Blood and the plate fragments flowed down He Yuzhu's cheek.

Then, He Yushui threw the broken pieces of the plate in his hand aside, raised one foot, and kicked He Yuzhu hard.

Originally, He Yushui could still maintain an expressionless face, but as time passed, a drop of liquid flowed from the corner of his eye.

Gradually the liquid increased and flowed down the cheeks.

His teeth were clenched against his lips, and a low growl of a wounded cub came from his throat.

I don’t know how much time passed or how many times he was kicked, but He Yushui finally calmed down.

He took a long breath, tidied up his messy hair, and said to He Yuliang in a hoarse voice:

"Brother, I'm going back to my room first. See you tomorrow."

He Yuliang watched He Yushui leave, walked up to He Yuzhu, whose body was covered with footprints, and said:

"Go, kneel down at the entrance of Yu Shui. You are not allowed to get up until she forgives you."

After saying that, he stepped over He Yuzhu and went back to his room to sleep.
