Siheyuan: a better life

Chapter 144 Return to the courtyard!
Wu Xiuying waited for the children to finish their lunch, then took some mountain goods collected from the mountains, took the shuttle bus with the three children, and headed for Kyoto.

At around two o'clock in the afternoon, Wu Xiuying brought the three children to the gate of the courtyard, and looked at the familiar gate of the courtyard with a complicated expression on her face.

"Comrade! May I ask who are you looking for?" Just as Wu Xiuying was hesitating, Yan Bugui walked out of the courtyard with a fishing rod in hand. He saw some middle-aged women who seemed to be familiar before him, and asked them curiously. asked.

Wu Xiuying recognized Yan Bugui at the first sight when she heard Yan Bugui's question, and quickly greeted Yan Bugui with a smile, "Uncle Yan! I haven't seen you for many years, and you still haven't changed much."

When Yan Bugui heard what Wu Xiuying called him, he immediately looked at the familiar Wu Xiuying in front of him seriously and asked with surprise: "Xiuying! Are you Wu Xiuying? These three are not your children, right?"

Seeing that Yan Pugui finally recognized her, Wu Xiuying quickly told the third child standing beside her, "Zhao Qiang! Zhao Li! Zhao Zhong! This is your Grandpa Yan, don't hesitate to call someone."

When the three children heard Wu Xiuying's shout, they greeted Yan Bugui almost in unison: "Hello, Grandpa Yan!"

Yan Bugui heard the greetings from the three children, and responded with a smile: "Children! Hello!"

After Wu Xiuying saw that the three children had greeted Yan Bugui, she quickly asked Yan Bugui, "Uncle Yan! Is my brother at home? I'll bring the children back to see him."

When Yan Bugui heard Wu Xiuying ask about Wu Pingshan, he immediately remembered what happened to the Wu family. However, this was a family matter of the Wu family. Although Yan Bugui was curious about the reason for Wu Xiuying's sudden return, he still said to Wu Xiuying enthusiastically: "Xiu Ying Ying! Today is a day off, your brother must be at home, he is probably taking a nap at this time. "

When Wu Xiuying heard Yan Bugui's answer, she thought of her elder brother whom she had not seen for many years, and said to Yan Bugui with a smile: "Uncle Yan! I will go back to see my brother first, and I won't talk to you anymore."

Yan Bugui heard Wu Xiuying's words and said with a smile: "Xiuying! You have been away for more than ten years, you should go home and have a look."

After Wu Xiuying bid farewell to Yan Bugui, she led her third brother and child into the courtyard.

Several middle-aged women who were chatting in the front yard saw some strangers walking into the courtyard, and all turned their attention to these strangers.

Chen Shuying, who was picking up the soles of her shoes, saw Wu Xiuying walking into the yard, and felt a little unbelievable in her eyes, instinctively reached out and rubbed her eyes, and after making sure that she did not admit her mistake, she tentatively asked: "Xiuying! is it you?"

The moment Wu Xiuying walked into the front yard, she recognized Chen Shuying at the first sight, sitting at the door of the East Wing, holding the soles of her shoes.

"Sister-in-law! I'm back!" Faced with Chen Shuying's inquiry and thinking of what she had done back then, tears surged out of Wu Xiuying's eyes like a bursting flood, and she shouted to Chen Shuying in a choked voice.

Chen Shuying heard Wu Xiuying's shout, and after making sure she had not admitted her mistake, she immediately stood up from the stool, walked quickly to Wu Xiuying, slapped Wu Xiuying, and scolded Wu Xiuying in a very excited tone: "You didn't Something of conscience, it’s been 18 years since I left, do you know how much your brother is worried about you?”

"You are not allowed to hit my mother?" Zhao Zhong, who was standing next to Wu Xiuying, saw the strange woman in front of him beating his own mother. He immediately stood in front of Wu Xiuying and shouted to Chen Shuying angrily.

The eldest sister-in-law is like a mother. When Chen Shuying married into the Wu family, Wu Xiuying was only 12 years old, and Wu Pinghai was ten years old. It was Chen Shuying, the sister-in-law, who raised her and her younger brother.

Wu Xiuying was slapped by Chen Shuying. Instead of being angry, she was very happy. She quickly scolded Zhao Zhong: "Zhao Zhong! This is your aunt! You are not allowed to talk to aunt like this."

"Grandma! Who is this?" Yingying, who was playing games with Wu Aifang and He Yushui in the room, immediately ran out of the room when she heard Chen Shuying's crying from the yard. When she was a stranger, she asked Chen Shuying in a childish voice.

When Chen Shuying heard her granddaughter's inquiry, she immediately wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes with her sleeves and introduced Yingying to Yingying affectionately: "Yingying! This is your aunt!"

When Chen Shuying said this, she turned to Wu Xiuying and introduced: "Xiuying! This is the girl who loves the party! Wu Yingying!"

"Grandma! Why have I never met my aunt?" Xiao Yingying responded to Chen Shuying's words, and asked Chen Shuying in a childlike voice.

When Chen Shuying heard Yingying's question, she smiled and told Yingying: "Little Yingying! You hurry back to the backyard to find grandpa, and tell grandpa that my aunt is back, and tell grandpa to come to the front yard quickly."

When Xiao Yingying heard Chen Shuying's order, she immediately responded, and then ran towards the backyard with her short legs.

When Wu Xiuying saw Xiao Yingying running towards the backyard, she immediately introduced to Chen Shuying: "Sister-in-law! These three are my children. The eldest, Zhao Qiang, is 16 years old, the second, Zhao Li, is 13, and the third, Zhao Zhong, He’s nine years old this year!”

Wu Xiuying introduced this place and immediately shouted to the three children: "Zhao Qiang! Zhao Li! Zhao Zhong! Hurry up and call someone."

After all, Zhao Qiang and Zhao Li are already at a sensible age. They knew that the slap Chen Shuying slapped their mother just now was not really slapping their mother, but an instinctive reaction because they hated iron for being weak.

Facing Wu Xiuying's instructions, Zhao Qiang and Zhao Li immediately shouted politely: "Hello, aunt!"

"She just hit my mother, I won't call anyone." Because Chen Shuying had just slapped Wu Xiuying, Zhao Zhong was always grudges and said dissatisfied.

When Chen Shuying heard the greetings from Zhao Qiang and Zhao Li, a happy smile appeared on her face, and she replied with a smile: "Good! Good! Good! Seeing that you are covered with sweat, you must be very hot. Come on in!" Sit inside."

When Wu Xiuying saw that Chen Shuying led their family into the east wing of the front yard, she asked Chen Shuying curiously, "Sister-in-law! Isn't our house in the backyard? Why did you lead me into someone else's house?"

Chen Shuying heard Wu Xiuying's inquiry and introduced to Wu Xiuying with a smile: "Xiuying! Our house is indeed in the backyard, but the east wing of the front yard also belongs to our house."

"Grandpa! Grandpa! Grandma is here. Grandma wants you to go to the second uncle's house." After receiving Chen Shuying's order, Xiao Yingying ran to the door of Wu Pingshan's room on her short legs and shouted loudly to Wu Pingshan who was sleeping on the bed. shouted.

During lunch, Wu Pingshan drank some wine. After returning to the backyard, he lay down and fell asleep. He was sleeping soundly when he heard his granddaughter's cry. He thought he had heard wrong and quickly sat up from the bed. , asked little Yingying in surprise: "Yingying! Tell grandpa again, who is here?"
