The courtyard: the atmosphere of human life

"Xiao Ling, what was it about the fourth generation that made you fall in love with it?" Darong did not ask Xiao Ling what happened, but directly asked her what she fell in love with the fourth generation.

When asked by Darong, Xiao Ling was stunned for a moment, and the tears in her eyes seemed to be held back and retracted instantly.

"Appearance? Figure? Character? Temperament... It can't be talent, right?" Seeing that Xiao Ling didn't respond for a long time, Darong took the lead in giving options.

"I like him because he is good-looking, good at fighting, and can protect me." Xiao Ling thought for a long time and gave a realistic answer.

"Good at fighting? What does that mean?" Darong asked.

Xiao Ling looked at Darong in confusion and still couldn't say a word.

"It means he has a child's mentality, it means he is not mature enough, it means he is not ready to grow up yet, so there are always problems in your relationship, and you always feel that he doesn't care about your feelings, because he is just immature."

Xiao Ling blinked and looked at Darong. This was the first time Darong spoke to her so seriously. It seemed that she had not recognized the strong stubbornness hidden in this good-tempered elder sister-in-law from the beginning.

"Before you were all in school, your families treated you like children. Now that you want to be friends, don't always treat them like children playing house. If you feel that the fourth generation is not good enough, you have plenty of opportunities to choose."

Darong paused after saying this. She also felt that she had spoken too hastily and aggressively. After all, Xiao Ling had spent all her thoughts on Sibeier over the years.

"I know Sibei'er's temper. He likes to play and eat, but he is very particular about how he treats people. That's why he has so many friends. With more friends, there are more social events. With your personality, you probably can't control him. But if he complains every time in the future, even if we do, Sibei will get annoyed."

"Sister? Xiao Ling? What are you two doing here?"

Before Darong could finish her words, Sibei'er appeared at the entrance of the alley. He looked at Darong, then at Xiaoling, and asked in confusion.

"Did you say you went out with Li Bingfen?" As soon as Xiao Ling saw Sibei'er, she forgot what Darong had just said and started questioning him in a crying voice.

"Fuck you, we are taking over the shift, how can we go out together?"

As soon as Sibei heard Bingfen's name, he immediately got angry. It seemed that this was not the first time that Xiaoling had quarreled with Sibei because of Bingfen.

"Just talk if you want to, why are you swearing?"

Darong pushed the cart and reached out and slapped Sibei. Although she didn't really reach her, the expression was conveyed, and Xiaoling was somewhat less embarrassed.

"She is sick. I don't know who told her. Bingfen is the one who took over my shift at our factory. She has been acting like a madman and making trouble with me every day."

When Sibei said this, the disgust on his face was very real.

"Bingfen, Bingfen, look how affectionate you are calling me."

This time Xiao Ling could no longer control her tears and burst into tears. Her voice was hoarse to begin with, and this cry sounded as unpleasant as a wolf's howl.

"Alright, go ahead and cry like a she-wolf. If you keep crying I'll kick you to death."

Sibei had obviously drunk quite a bit of alcohol today. Although he was sober at the moment, he spoke like a different person.

"If you dare to hit me, I will tell my aunt."

I don’t know if it’s because Darong is here, but Xiao Ling feels like she has someone to rely on. She argues with Sibeier without giving in, until they are red in the face.

Sibei was originally a person with a poor tongue, and when he saw Xiao Ling didn't give in to him, he was so angry that he raised his foot and wanted to kick Xiao Ling.

Xiao Ling jumped sideways, not only did she miss her kick, she also fell headfirst.

"Fuck you!" After Sibei got up from the ground, he was completely furious and chased after Xiao Ling.

Darong didn't care about her own car, she grabbed Sibei'er's arm and held him with all her might.

"My mom is right, you are an ungrateful person. I've been so good to you, but you just bully me all day long..."

It is said that Xiao Ling is just a talkative person. When she saw Darong holding Sibei'er, she not only did not show any sign of restraint, but became even more aggressive, jumping up and down and crying, while scolding Sibei'er, which made Sibei'er even more angry.

After all, Sibei is a boy and he can't distinguish right from wrong in an argument like girls. When he gets angry, his verbal retaliation is nothing but swearing.

Xiao Ling hid behind Darong, jumping left and right and refusing to give up. Sibeier was so angry that he kept waving his hand and wanted to hit her.

If you say Sibei was drunk, none of his slaps could hit Darong. If you say he was not drunk, he really beat Xiao Ling.

In short, the three of them had an argument on the small street, attracting passers-by to watch the fun.

"Okay, don't be embarrassed!"

Darong finally got anxious. Although there were not many people passing by, Darong could not stand this kind of "attention". She pushed Sibei'er back two steps and roared angrily.

"You shut up too." Darong turned around and said unhappily to Xiao Ling behind her.

"If you two can get along, then do it. If not, break up as soon as possible. If you keep quarreling and he hits you, I won't care. If you hit her again, I'll go home and call our mom. Go away, go back to your own homes, and don't be with each other anymore."

After saying that, Darong lifted up the car and glared at the two weird people in front of her with a frown.

After hearing what his sister said, Sibei walked towards his home, cursing. Maybe because of the quarrel just now, he was completely drunk. After taking two steps, his feet began to stutter. He could only hold on to the wall with one hand to move towards home.

"Sister, he's drunk. I'm afraid he'll fall. How about I take him there? I won't say anything..."

Seeing Sibei almost fall, Xiao Ling subconsciously made a gesture to reach out to catch it, but before she took a step, she thought of Darong's instructions and asked Darong carefully.

Darong rolled her eyes speechlessly, sighed, turned around and rode her bike to work.

Xiao Ling's fate in this life is firmly controlled by four generations.

After Xiao Ling and Sibei'er's commotion, Darong barely entered the workshop as the bell rang. She pedaled hard all the way and didn't even have time to change her clothes when she entered the factory. She just put on a hat and sleeves and went to her workstation.

"What's wrong with you today? I rarely see you so impetuous."

Master Mao looked at Da Rong, whose breathing had not yet calmed down, and asked cheerfully.

"Master, hi, don't mention it. I was involved in a quarrel between two people, but in the end they reconciled, and I became a nobody..." Darong smiled bitterly and told Master Mao about the farce between Xiao Ling and Sibei'er.

"Hahaha... these kids are so interesting." Master Mao also laughed after hearing this.

"Rong, I won't be coming next month. I'm going to retire soon, and the factory asked me to take all my remaining shifts off in advance. I don't have to come again after I skip two days."
