Siheyuan: First-class Merit at the Start

In the backyard, at the Li family’s house, no one knew what happened to Chen Xi today and he hasn’t come back yet.

Li Polu seemed to be looking at Nan Yi, who was a little restless and hesitant to speak.

After giving him a cigarette, he smiled and said, "Master Nan, if you have anything to say, just tell me. Why are you hesitating like a woman?"

After hearing what Li Polu said, Nan Yi suddenly felt even more embarrassed. After all, which family was good enough for two men to chat with the door closed?

Although what he meant was that it is indeed not appropriate to chat with the door open, you can't just close the door as soon as you enter the room.

"This, that, this. It's just a little bit......"

"Brother, I'm back."

Just when Nan Yi had prepared himself mentally and organized his words to ask Li Polu for help, the door was roughly pushed open.

"Oh, we have guests at home."

When she opened the door and saw that there was someone else in the room, Chen Xi immediately returned to her ladylike demeanor and nodded to Nan Yi with a smile.

"Master Nan, let me introduce you. This is my wife, Chen Xi. Xiao Xi, this is Master Nan Yinan, the new team leader of the second canteen of the steel rolling mill."

After a simple greeting, Chen Xi turned and went to the kitchen.

"Then brother, you guys chat first, I'm going to go cook first."

When Nan Yi heard this, he felt that his chance to show off had come. You said in front of a chef that you were going to cook, isn't that an insult?

"Well, Comrade Chen Xi. Otherwise, I'll do it. It just happens that I have the advantage of eating."

Hearing Nan Yi's words, Chen Xi immediately looked at Li Polu with a somewhat embarrassed look, and said: Brother, what do you say? Isn't this your guest?

"Okay, then I'll trouble Master Nan."

However, before Nan Yi could get up, two more people broke into the backyard.

"Brother, my sister-in-law wants you and Sister Xi to come over for dinner, along with your friend."

The people who came were naturally He Yushui and Zhao Xina.

Chen Xi and He Yushui came back together. Chen Xi was delayed by something at the hospital today, so he came back a little late.

Unexpectedly, as soon as I reached the alley, I ran into He Yushui who was also riding a bicycle towards the yard.

The two sisters hadn't seen each other for a long time, so they simply got off the car, pushed the cart, and chatted as they walked.

On the way, Chen Xi found out that it was because Li Bolu went to call He Yushui.

Chen Xi was actually quite curious about this matter. Yesterday morning, when Zhao Xina came to the hospital, she and Chen Xueru were still sleeping. Naturally, they had never seen each other.

Later, she heard what the hospital said, but it was ridiculous and everyone kept silent. She didn't understand what was going on.

And He Yushui knew even less than Chen Xi. When two gossipy women get together, they definitely can't move fast.

It took the two of them 10 minutes to walk through the alley, which was only a few hundred meters long.

After returning to the courtyard, Chen Xi was shocked when he saw Zhao Xina for the first time. She was older than both of her.

For a moment, I began to worry about He Yushui's safety.

Then he accompanied He Yushui and her sister-in-law to chat for a few minutes, and saw that the other party seemed to be quite easy to talk to. Then he turned around and went home with peace of mind.

After Chen Xi left, Zhao Xina immediately asked about Chen Xi's situation.

He Yushui was not very familiar with his sister-in-law, so he just briefly told Zhao Xina some things that everyone in the courtyard knew.

That's why she was so familiar with Li Polu and his wife, and why Sha Zhu had been beaten by both of them.

He Yushui had no intention of hiding these things.

Firstly, everyone in the courtyard knew about these people, so it was useless for He Yushui to hide it. Secondly, she still had some feelings for Zhao Xina, so she had to let her be mentally prepared.

Otherwise, we will find out later what kind of person her brother Sha Zhu is. Wouldn't that be harming the girl?

When Zhao Xina heard this, she immediately felt sorry for her sister-in-law. After all, they both had the same experience.

After all, no one knew the feeling of being hungry better than her, and her sister-in-law was even worse off than her.

After all, I was hungry because I ate a lot and there was not enough food at home. But at least I still had a good father and the villagers who loved me and helped me.

And what about the sister-in-law? Her own brother was the cook, but she almost starved to death.

It’s all thanks to Li Polu and his wife in the backyard.

At the same time, she was also lamenting that this man of hers seemed to be extremely poisoned. It seemed that she would have to teach him a lesson in the future.

And you have to hit the head, otherwise they won’t remember.

Then, Zhao Xina told Sha Zhu in the kitchen to cook more dishes. Then she took He Yushui to the backyard to invite Li Polu and Chen Xi to dinner. Of course, she did not forget Nan Yi who had just returned home with Li Polu.

After all, this was a favor to her sister-in-law, who had saved her life. She couldn't forget it. It was okay for Shazhu to be a bastard, but she couldn't be a bastard with him.

What's more, one of the couple is a medical student and the other is a technical section chief. It's fine if Shazhu doesn't get along with such people, but he goes against them. I don't know what's going on in his mind.

Thinking of this, Zhao Xina beat Sha Zhu once more.

Li Polu was still a little surprised by He Yushui's words. After all, it was impossible for Sha Zhu to treat him to a meal given his arrogance these past two days.

But I didn't expect that he actually called. And he even called Nan Yi. Didn't he know that it was Nan Yi who took his place in the second cafeteria? So generous?

In fact, Sha Zhu had never actually met Nan Yi.

He had just worked a day when he kicked a steel pipe on his way home from get off work and had to take a break again.

On the day he went to work, Nan Yi was not in the cafeteria at noon, so the two had no chance to meet.

Because of what happened before, few people in the cafeteria were willing to talk to him.

The only loyal disciple who would pay attention to him is Ma Hua, who has just joined the factory and is still a bit of a blockhead. He basically only answers whatever Shazhu asks. He never talks about questions that are not asked.

Arriving at Sha Zhu's house, Sha Zhu was cooking. When he saw Li Polu coming, he just looked at him arrogantly and then ignored him.

Today he was originally planning to have a simple meal with Zhao Xina, He Yushui and their family of three.

It was also a good opportunity for him to take advantage of the fact that he had married a new wife to give He Yushui a good lecture.

He believed that with the guidance of both himself and his wife, He Yushui would be able to realize the mistakes in his thinking.

So I didn't even plan to invite other people to have dinner together.

Who would have thought that when the dishes were almost ready, Zhao Xina told him that she wanted to invite Li Polu and the others to eat.

He originally wanted to scold Zhao Xina, but when he thought about it, it was the first day after getting the marriage certificate, and they hadn't even eaten the meat yet, so it was inappropriate to scold her.

This finally fulfilled Zhao Xina's wish. She took out some more things and cooked two more dishes.

No matter what, he couldn't let Li Polu look down on him, right?
