Siheyuan: There are three little cats at home

Chapter 501
  Entering October, there is a hint of chill in the air, which is said to be crisp and clear in autumn, but Yan Jiecheng stood in the front yard, filled with melancholy in his heart.

He was unlucky today. His two younger brothers came to the courtyard early in the morning, but they ended up being at odds with his eldest brother. They went to the backyard without asking for money for Xu Qing, and they were disappointed and humiliated. It's not his fault.

My daughter-in-law has just returned to her parents' home with her daughter.

The father was so angry that he fainted. When he woke up, he raised his hand and gave him a slap in the face.

Yan Jiecheng rubbed the right side of his face that was still swollen and red. No matter how he thought about it, he felt aggrieved.

It was obviously his wife's idea, not him, so why should he be the one getting beaten and scolded?

As soon as the two brothers patted their butts and left, the wife also hid, leaving a mess for him to clean up.

Yan Jiecheng looked at the empty front yard, thought about it, and felt that he was right.

But my face hurt and my heart became violent. I turned around and went back to my room, lay down on the bed, and fell asleep.

Never mind it, whatever happens to love, whatever happens.

Anyway, things have come to this, and my father has come to his senses.

It doesn't matter if the three Xu Qing brothers are offended.

The worst case scenario is that if his parents talk to him or scold him, he will drag his two younger brothers along with them, and they won't be able to hide away.

This happened together, and they want to just walk away, but there's no way!
  When it comes to scheming against others, Yan Jiecheng thinks he's not too far behind, but his two younger brothers will definitely take advantage of him.

When the morning light poured into the backyard, the whole compound became bright. Xu Qing, his second brother Aiguo, and his third brother Fengming were sitting in the house where Aiguo lived. The three brothers talked about what happened this morning. .

The reason why Xu Qing did not choose to live in his main house was because his grandparents lived next door to the main house.

The two old men are getting older. It would be bad if they heard even a few words.

Xu Qing sat in front of his two younger brothers and had not yet said how to deal with Yan Jiecheng's three brothers.

Xu Fengming smoked a cigarette and said with an angry face:
  "Brother, the three Yan Jiecheng brothers are ignorant. They didn't even know whether the third uncle had lent you money, so they dared to rush to our house early in the morning and demand it. They are really nothing. I can't spare them! "

Xu Aiguo's temperament must be stable. Firstly, he is a few years older than Fengming. Secondly, he has succeeded Xu Qing as the director of the fifth factory for more than a year. His character has been tempered, but at this time, there is also a slight anger on his face.

Yan Jiecheng and his two younger brothers came to the backyard early in the morning to bully his eldest brother. How could this be possible?

When he was a child, he, Feng Ming, and Xiaoya could only deal with the people in the courtyard under the protection of their elder brother.

But now, he and Feng Ming have grown up.

I have to share my worries with my eldest brother. Today's matter seems to be nothing, but there is no chapter. How can it be solved so easily.

Xu Aiguo, a non-smoker, picked up the teapot and took a sip. After hearing what his third brother said, he responded:
  "Brother, Feng Ming is right. I have to teach Yan Jiecheng and his three brothers a lesson about what happened today. Don't think that they are the only ones with the most people in the courtyard. I will call the director of the third factory after work tomorrow."

Xu Fengming continued: "Second brother, I will also go to Hongxing Machinery Factory tomorrow to talk to the factory directors, Yan Jiekuang and Yan Jiefang, who are my two grandsons."

Xu Qing was smoking a cigarette and felt that Aiguo and Feng Ming's words made sense.

Yan Jiecheng's three brothers should indeed be beaten.

These years of not paying much attention to them have taught them to push their limits.

Especially Yan Jiecheng, who lives in the compound and looks down every day. For the sake of the third uncle, his wife and the neighbors, he doesn't bother to argue with him.

He never thought that he would lose his temper today.

He only plotted against his own parents, but he dared to team up with Yan Jiefang and Yan Jiekuang to target him.

Isn't this courting death!

Don't be shy, you have a head filled with paste, and you will believe whatever your wife says.

In this case, let Aiguo and Fengming give them some memory.

However, Xu Qing couldn't help but feel happy when he thought that his second and third brothers could watch and deal with them without him having to deal with them as the eldest brother.

However, Yan Bugui fainted and woke up in the middle courtyard, but Xu Qing was too lazy to pay attention to him.

Every one of his old Yan family has no capable people, so the third uncle and the third aunt should just hope for their own good.

Aiguo and Fengming followed their eldest brother and never thought of going to the middle courtyard to have a look.

It would be nice if he didn’t settle the score with Yan Bugui. Look, what a beautiful idea!
  Ma Jinghong and Liu Aiqian were cooking in the kitchen with the nanny Aunt Feng, and they did not go to the courtyard to visit.

Normally, in other matters, as neighbors in the compound, that would be fine.

But today, it's absolutely impossible.

Even if Yan Bugui suffered a stroke out of anger, he deserved it!
  Who allowed him and his third aunt to raise three 'good sons'.

At this moment, in Yi Zhonghai's room in the middle courtyard, Yan Bugui woke up and drank a few sips of hot water. He finally felt relieved and was fine, but he was still very angry and his face was pale. He didn't let the third aunt hold him up anymore, and sat on the table at Yi Zhonghai's house. He took off his glasses and hid his face in deep thought.

The dignity of the man in charge of the compound has been completely ruined by his three sons today.

Not only was it thrown on the ground and crushed, but it was also dropped so hard that it was hard to pick it up.

He is such a nice person. Whether it is in the courtyard or at work, he has been cautious for most of his life. He has to think about what he says three times in his mind before thinking again.

It's good now. The little good reputation he had accumulated in the compound after decades of hard work was all gone in one morning.

Yan Bugui, who was too shameless to see anyone, could only cover his face with his hands, which was really embarrassing.

He had calculated a few days ago that he had borrowed a thousand yuan from Xu Qing so that Xu Qing would give him a job at the meat factory after he retired from school.

Unexpectedly, the three unsatisfactory sons secretly went to the backyard to ask Xu Qing for money while he and his wife were not in the courtyard.

Not only did it ruin his newly established relationship with the Xu Qing family, it also disrupted his plans for retirement.

The more Yan Bugui thought about it, the angrier he became, and he clenched his molars in hatred.

But he couldn't tell anyone, so why did he have the nerve to open his mouth about such an embarrassing thing.

How could he have the shame to say anything after being completely humiliated by his sons?
  After a while, Yan Bugui closed his eyes tightly, covered his face with his hands, and waited for the third aunt to help him back to the front yard.

Shame on people!
  Not to mention facing the neighbors in the courtyard.

The third aunt sat aside, scolding the second aunt and the first aunt for her three sons, unaware that the head of the family was waiting for her.

Liu Haizhong somewhat understood Yan Bugui's mood at this time. He also had a deep understanding of the pain of unfilial children. Seeing that Yan Bugui was silent and covering his face with his hands, he turned around and said:

"Daughter-in-law, Lao Yan, help Lao Yan back to your front yard to rest. He has just woken up from a coma. Go home and make a bowl of egg soup." Only then did the third aunt wake up. After thanking everyone in a hurry, she helped him After getting up, Yan Bugui hurriedly returned to the front yard.

Seeing that there was nothing left to see, Xu Damao walked out of Yi Zhonghai House with a cigarette in his mouth and headed back to the backyard after Yan Bugui and his wife walked back to the front yard.

Liu Haizhong and the second aunt did not stay at Yi Zhonghai's house any longer. Today, their two sons had a red-faced quarrel in the backyard, which embarrassed them.

After Yi Zhonghai and Auntie sent him out, they returned to the house with expressions of sadness on their faces.

Every family has its own sutras that are difficult to recite. Unexpectedly, the final focus will be on their children.

Yi Zhonghai had a lot of thoughts in his mind. The families of Lao Yan and Lao Liu had caused great harm to their children in the past few years.

He used to be envious, but today, he doesn't feel envious at all.

If you meet someone who is not filial, it would be better not to have one at all.

Fortunately, he and his eldest mother really don't have a son or a daughter.

It is a fortune in misfortune.

At least they won't be embarrassed and make a fool of themselves because of their children's affairs!
  "Zhu, you saw it today," Yi Zhonghai raised his head and said to Si Zhu who was sitting alone in his room: "The third uncle and your second uncle both have three boys.

As a result, no one is filial, that is, they don’t know how to discipline. Your Uncle Xu would be gone a long time ago. Otherwise, look at how your Uncle Xu educated Xiaoqing and his brothers and sisters. Lao Yan is no better than Lao Yi. superior. "

Silly Zhu puffed on his cigarette and said in a loud voice:

"Master, my uncle Xu and his wife are no longer here, but Qingzi has been raising his younger brother for more than ten years, which is quite good."

When Yi Zhonghai heard what Silly Zhu said, he was at a loss for words. He didn't know what to say. He took out the economical cigarette from the pocket of his blue fabric work clothes, struck a match, lit it and took two puffs, and said with emotion:

"If Lao Yan and Lao Liu didn't care about their children, maybe they wouldn't be like this now."

Silly Zhu leaned over and sat on the kang, patted his thigh and said: "Master, that's right. We don't talk about Qingzi and his younger brothers and sisters, but talk about me and my sister Yuyu. It's not like we don't have parents to care about us. My dad ran out. Our compound has ignored us all these years, and it has nothing to do with Yuyu and me, nor does it mean that the trouble is bad."

The aunt who was about to go to the kitchen to make breakfast said:
  "Zhuzi, this is the eldest son of you and Xiao Qinghui, Lao Yan's Jie Cheng, and your second uncle's family. The two of them have not set an example for their younger brothers and sisters."

Silly Zhu grinned and said: "That's true."

In Yi Zhonghai's house, Shazhu and the first man were discussing today's events.

Qin Huairu, who lives in the Jia family's house in the middle courtyard, also talked about the farce that happened this morning.

But it was Jia Zhang who started the conversation, "Huai Ru, you see, as parents, you can't spoil your children, and you can't beat and scold them all the time. Otherwise, this will happen when you get older."

Mrs. Jia Zhang was standing in the kitchen, obviously able to help Qin Huairu steam the steamed buns, but instead of instructing the plain girl to help, she sat in front of the stove and lit the fire, mumbling:
  "Your third uncle is stingy, and he is always scheming with his children. In the backyard, your second uncle and his wife are not very scheming, but they beat them at every turn. Why doesn't his eldest son want to come back? He just can't bear the beating and hides outside. You can live your own life by yourself, and I guess your second uncle and your wife will get old in the future, and they may not plan to come back."

Qin Huairu and her daughter Xiaodang were kneading steamed buns in front of the chopping board they had used for more than ten years without saying a word.

Mrs. Jia Zhang still kept talking, "Huai Ru, do you know why mom didn't let you play stick jokes in the past?"

Qin Huairu was stunned for a moment, but still said nothing.

Jia Zhang held the fire hook and turned around and said: "I'm just afraid that you will beat the stick too much. Forget it about Xiaodang and Huaihua. If you get to my age in the future, you won't be able to count on them. You will have to rely on the stick for everything." Gee, I was afraid that I would be like the old lady who passed away in our backyard, no one could count on me."

As he spoke, Mrs. Jia Zhang began to sob, wiping her tears and said:
  "My life is miserable. Dongxu died long ago, and his father died long ago. If I am left alone, who can I rely on if I can't walk in a few years?"

Qin Huairu couldn't help but feel helpless when she heard that her mother-in-law could talk about herself from the affairs of the third uncle's house in the front yard.

Xiaodang, who had heard this since childhood, turned around and said with a cold face:

"Grandma, it's been many years since my father and grandfather died. You tell me that you mention it every year and cry several times every month. If you don't mind it, I'm tired of it."

Mrs. Jia Zhang raised her head to look at her granddaughter and said harshly: "You heartless person, your mother and I have made this difficult for you for nothing. If your father is alive and hears you talking to me like this, he will definitely slap you!"

Qin Huairu felt sorry for her daughter and winked sideways, signaling not to care.

Xiaodang turned around, too lazy to listen to Jia Zhang's complaints anymore.

Mrs. Jia Zhang lamented to herself for a long time. Seeing that her daughter-in-law and granddaughter ignored her, she closed her mouth.

At around nine o'clock in the morning, due to a series of incidents caused by the three brothers Yan Jiecheng, everyone in the compound had dinner an hour later than usual.

In the backyard, as soon as Xu Qing and Jing Hong had breakfast, they hurried out of the compound and headed towards the grain station and meat factory.

The weather is very good today. Although the commotion in the morning made people feel unhappy, things have to be dealt with and the day is going to be easy.

Liu Aiqian had nothing to do on the weekend, so she accompanied her sister-in-law to the grain station to help.

While having breakfast with Patriot, I received a call from the main factory and went out with my eldest brother Xu Qing.

He went to a meeting, while Xu Qing rode a motorcycle to the suburban meat factory.

Xu Fengming said that Xiujuan had returned to her parents, so she stayed in the compound without leaving in a hurry, chatting with her grandparents and her two nephews and niece.

Time seems to have faded what happened all morning, but Xu Fengming still remembers it in his heart.

Xu Aiguo, who was about to go to the main factory for a meeting, also kept it in mind.

In fact, everyone in the compound has not forgotten it.

Although no one mentioned it on their lips, they still kept it in their hearts.

When Xu Qing and Aiguo passed by the front yard, the third aunt ran out of the house, took Xu Qing's arm and said:

"Xiao Qing, what happened today is because of our family's fault. You have a lot of money. Don't take it to heart. If your third uncle and I hadn't left our courtyard early in the morning, we would never have let my three worthless sons run into the backyard. I’m causing trouble for your family.”

Xu Qing pushed the motorcycle and said coldly: "Third aunt, it's useless for you to tell me. Everything has happened, so just do whatever you want!"

Xu Aiguo was holding a black briefcase in his hand, but he didn't show any favor to the third aunt, with a look of indifference.

Following his eldest brother Xu Qing, he turned around and left the compound.

Yan Bugui sat in the room, faceless when he saw Xu Qinghe Aiguo in the courtyard, until he saw his old woman returning to the room with a sigh, knowing that this matter could not be changed by just apologising, he was so angry that he almost lost his temper again.

He lay on the kang and rested for about ten minutes. Then he sat up and looked at the food on the table. He had no appetite at all and said angrily:

"You see, this is the mess our boss and his wife got into today. Let me tell you, my daughter-in-law asked us to take Niuniu to the hospital with her at around six o'clock in the morning. We were still dragging our feet when we came back. I'm sorry. Behind our backs, the two of them went to the backyard with Jiefang Xiekuang to ask for money. Tell me, how can I be the third master of our courtyard in the future, and why do I have the dignity to go to the backyard again?!"

Seeing that the head of the family was furious, the third aunt was secretly frightened. She dared to forgive her daughter-in-law Yu Li for being slow to ride home today. She did not care about her as a mother-in-law, so she immediately cursed angrily:
  "What a boss and daughter-in-law, she has her eyes set on both of us. Head of the house, I don't care about the trouble they caused today, let them figure it out on their own."
