Siheyuan: Banggeng and I are classmates

Yan Bugui was still keeping the secret, but Li Muhua guessed who Yan Bugui was talking about in just a moment.

Directly asked, "Are you talking about Liu Xu, my elementary school classmate?"

"you know?"

There was something strange on Yan Bugui's face.

Only then did Li Muhua understand why Yang Liu was able to find him. It turned out to be what Yan Bugui said. Given his greedy personality, it would not be difficult for Yang Liu to get information from him.

"I know. She came to me this year to join the production team. She stayed with us for more than a month before being transferred back to the city!" Li Muhua gestured to Zhou Ru and said:

"But Liu Xu's name is Yang Liu now. She doesn't know about this. Don't let her slip of the secret!"

"I know!" Yan Bugui nodded and said, "That's why I pulled you here to tell you secretly. Don't worry, I am your uncle and I am the most reliable person!"

After saying this, Yan Bugui felt a little puzzled again.

"Why would she come to you?"

"I could tell she had bad intentions, so I only told her that you and Zhou Ru were engaged and were going to get married soon. I didn't even tell her where your family was moving to!"

Li Muhua was also a little surprised after hearing this and asked back: "You really didn't tell her where I was cutting in line?"

"This is such an injustice. Even if I want to say something, I need to know where you are first!"

Yan Bugui was afraid that Li Muhua would not believe him, so he explained, "I only know that you are in Yicheng, but I really don't know which educated youth center you are in. I have never asked your parents, so how can I tell her?"

After listening to Yan Bugui's explanation, Li Muhua withdrew his suspicious look. Could it be that Yang Liu found his home again later?

Li Muhua dismissed this speculation in just a moment. Liu Yujie and her mother Xu Yan would not be so ignorant of the seriousness of the matter. They would not tell anyone else about something that Yan Bugui did not even mention.

For a moment, Li Muhua was really confused. How did Yang Liu find him and how could he join the team to work as an educated youth?

Seeing that Li Muhua's face changed and he didn't respond, Yan Bugui glanced at Zhou Ru in the distance.

Then he leaned closer and asked curiously, "What did she do after she went to your youth education center? You and Zhou Ru didn't have any conflicts over her, did you?"

Yan Bugui knew exactly what Yang Liu was trying to do, as he was able to run all the way back to the old city to inquire about Li Muhua's news and then chase her to the educated youth camp.

"No!" Li Muhua shook her head and said, "Just to see my old classmates!"

After finishing speaking, Li Muhua looked at Yan Bugui and asked, "You didn't tell my parents about this, did you?"

"No, but I have hinted at it and they don't seem to know this."

Yan Bugui wanted to ask more specific details and gossip, but Li Muhua nodded and thanked him, "Old Yan, thank you very much for this. Don't mention it to anyone else in the future."

"If Zhou Ru hears about this, I will definitely mess up all your marriage plans and make you look for matchmakers to change your daughter-in-law several times!"

"Hey, you—"

Yan Bugui caught up with him, but Li Muhua waved his hand and said, "Old Yan, don't see me off. I'm in a hurry to meet my father-in-law and mother-in-law. I'll come back to see you in a few days!"

"Come to my house more often if you have nothing to do!"

After saying that, Li Muhua dragged Zhou Ru out of the yard, not giving Yan Bugui a chance to speak.

After leaving the yard, Li Muhua's steps slowed down. Zhou Ru asked curiously, "What did Teacher Yan just say to you? You kept it secret and even told me not to tell it!"

Li Muhua rolled his eyes and said, "You know his son Jie Cheng, right?"

"Know!"

Zhou Ru nodded. She had met Yan Jiecheng last year.

"Jie Cheng just gave birth to a grandson last year. He wanted to pass on his experience to me, saying that he has a way to give birth to a son 100%. Can I believe him?"

Zhou Ru said in disbelief: "You just talk nonsense. How could Teacher Yan tell you this?"

"You don't believe it?"

Li Muhua looked at Zhou Ru, then leaned in and whispered, "Teacher Yan said that when we do that, we have to...——"

Li Muhua had just said a few lewd words when Zhou Ru blushed and dodged, "Impossible, Teacher Yan is a teacher after all, how could she possibly say such dirty things to you?"

Li Muhua continued, "There are no teachers now. There is only the stinky old ninth. Logically speaking, he is still under the prostitute, so what he said is just right..."

The two chased each other all the way to the mall, then to the vegetable market, and went to Zhou's house carrying fish, meat, cigarettes, alcohol and other items.

Li Muhua did not bring any gifts when he came to see Yan Bugui. It was already not easy for him to treat Yan Bugui as a friend, and it was impossible for him to bring gifts to Yan Bugui's house and claim to be his junior, which would cause trouble in the future.

The Zhou family’s home was not far from Compound No. 95, and the two walked into the compound not long after they finished shopping.

As soon as she entered the courtyard, the aunt in the courtyard saw Zhou Ru and came up to greet her warmly: "Xiao Ru, are you bringing your new son-in-law back to visit your parents?"

Although they were greeting Zhou Ru, the aunties' eyes were all on Li Muhua, smiling in a slightly flattering manner.

As they are all neighbors, they naturally know the situation of the Zhou family's son-in-law, Li Muhua's family.

Not to mention that Li Muhua himself was a child prodigy and a celebrity who wrote a book that was published in the newspaper at the age of twelve and was praised by his teacher, just the fact that Li's parents were both leaders of the Xidan Shopping Mall and they lived in a large courtyard, made them not an ordinary family.

With such family conditions, they secretly envied the Zhou family and said that they were very lucky to have found such a son-in-law.

Li Muhua smiled and replied, "Yes, this is the first time for me, the new son-in-law, to visit my parents-in-law. Please help me put in a good word!"

"Don't worry. As the old saying goes, the more the mother-in-law sees her son-in-law, the more she likes him. You..." The aunts all started chatting with Li Muhua enthusiastically.

Walking into the middle courtyard, Zhou Ru shouted into the house: "Dad, Mom, I'm back!"

After saying that, Zhou Ru walked into the house. Li Muhua said goodbye to the aunts with a smile and followed her into the Zhou family.

The 28th day of the twelfth lunar month——

Knowing that Li Muhua and his wife would be back today, they were both at home at this time.

Even Zhou Jie had returned from the military corps, wearing a military jacket. When he saw Li Muhua, he greeted her warmly and said, "Are you my brother-in-law Li Muhua?"

As he spoke, he patted Li Muhua on the shoulder and said with a smile: "Okay, you are very good-looking. My sister has good taste!"

"Brother-in-law!" Li Muhua readily agreed, then looked at Zhou Lin and Zhou Li and greeted them one by one, and finally stepped forward to meet his father-in-law and mother-in-law.

Seeing Li Muhua and her husband coming back, Zhou's father and mother were very happy. Now all the younger generations in the family were together, and the house was full of people, making it very lively.

It was already mid-morning when they arrived, and soon they started to light a fire and cook, and the family sat down at the dining table.

Compared to Zhou Lin, Zhou Jie was much more heroic and generous, acting like a big brother. Li Muhua could get along well with him, unlike in previous years when he could only hide outside the house to play with other children.

Zhou Lin still has no stable job as he did last year. His mother told him that the street office refused to arrange a job for him, so he could only find odd jobs.

Hearing Zhou's mother talking about this matter again, Li Muhua pretended not to hear it and did not respond. Zhou's mother did not mention it again. Instead, Zhou Lin gave her a few looks.

Li Muhua saw all these little actions and was hesitant about whether to arrange a job for Zhou Lin.

Now the campaign of going to the countryside is in full swing, and jobs in the city are in short supply and more valuable than gold.

Li Muhua felt it was not worth it to ask the leaders he knew for help on behalf of Zhou Lin. He had held this prestigious title for nine years and had only asked Director Wei for help once this year.

What's more, his personality makes him easily embarrass himself. If it were up to my own abilities, the best I could do is find him a job in the mall.

Li Muhua didn't want him to be too closely involved with her family, and she didn't want to bring shame to her parents' workplace.

For a moment, Li Muhua felt a little worried, and didn't know the taste of the food.

After all, looking at the attitude of his father-in-law and mother-in-law, this matter will be brought to the table sooner or later. How will he refuse then?
