Courtyard: Complain first at the beginning

Chapter 26 He Yuyu

Zhao Xiaotang only lived alone now, so he moved his room to sleep in the room of the original owner's parents.

She was mainly adapting to life here these two days, so she didn't make too many changes. She still cooked in the corridor.
But tomorrow he plans to hire someone to help renovate the room. The main thing is that when he looks up, he can see the tiles on the roof. If there is a slight breeze, the ash on them will flutter down, which is very annoying.
The house is not very high, but it would be okay to make a small attic to store some sundries and the like.

Zhao Xiaotang was thinking about how to renovate the house while discussing the plan with Fubao. He quickly made the dough and pork vermicelli filling into steamed buns.

I have a large antimony pot at home with two layers of steaming sheets. I can steam 25 buns at a time, so the calculation is very convenient.

As a result, Zhao Xiaotang was not sure. After the filling was finished, there was still a lot of dough left, so he made steamed buns directly.
The three aunts and their family drooled when they smelled the fragrance.

"Then let's make buns sometime! I'll dig wild vegetables tomorrow."

Yan Jiecheng took a sip of boiled water and said, "The third aunt just came back from the hospital and was very tired. She glanced at him and ignored him, and went directly to the kitchen to cook.

"Brother, are you stupid? Where are you going to dig wild vegetables in this winter? It's not enough to go back and forth. You've already drank a jar of boiling water. Can you stop drinking it? Boiling water also wastes briquettes."

Yan Jiekuang was dissatisfied. He was the one who failed in the beginning.
"Aren't I cold? A sip of more boiled water will warm me up a bit."

Now even Yan Jiecheng was not happy. He didn't think too much. He knew that he had said the wrong thing and complained.

"Okay, hurry up and read a book. Why are you arguing? Brothers have to help each other. Why are you like this?"

As soon as Yan Bugui came back, he heard the two brothers arguing. His unhappy face fell even more, and he glanced at the third aunt who was cooking.
"How's it going? When can Auntie be discharged from the hospital?"

"Dad, you were wrong. She is no longer an aunt."

Yan Jiekuang heard this and quickly reminded him,
"Yes! I suddenly forgot, what happened to her?"

Yan Bugui didn't care, he said something casually, and then continued to ask,

"What else can I do? She was conscious when I left. You wouldn't let me take care of her all the time! This or two meals are fine, but I listened to the doctor and it seems that she needs to be observed for at least three days."

"When the time comes, let her give you money, and you won't let you run away in vain. I just went to see Lao Yi, and he also said that he would give you money."

Yan Bugui sat on the chair and drank a big sip of boiled water. It was a bit cold, and his body relaxed a little. He said with a leisurely expression,
"It's not bad, but we can't suffer any loss. Even now, she will be miserable. She doesn't know what she will do in the future."

As both women, the third aunt felt a little gloating about the other's situation and at the same time she couldn't bear it, "Tch! You are so careless and careless. It is a lie that Yi has done so many years and has no savings at home. Besides, the last time I found so many It’s a lot of money, even if it’s refunded, there’s still a lot left, I won’t have any problems with my life, and besides, she’ll only be able to eat as much as she wants in the future.”

"There is a problem with the house. Do you want to help me? I don't know when she will be found after she is discharged from the hospital."

"I just went to the street office and asked her about a Duo Fang in the yard in the alley next door, but it's a bit expensive. I don't know if she is willing to do it. When you go there, tell her if you are willing, and I will go and help her. Stay here, but you have to explain the money clearly!"

"It's good to have a house now, how could she not want to? Unless she has the ability to go back to her hometown, don't worry, I will definitely explain the money to her clearly."

Yan Bugui was thinking of other ideas and didn't speak anymore. The three brothers also listened and learned from their experience.
"Wow! Whose steamed meat buns are this? They taste so delicious!"

There was a sound of a woman's voice and the sound of entering the door. Zhao Xiaotang was putting the pot on the ground and the iron kettle for boiling water on the stove. When he heard the sound, he looked up.
"Xiaotang, it's you who is making the buns! Your hands smell so good!"

He Yuyu has two pigtails, his hair is dry and yellow, he has a body like a washboard, he is skinny and has sallow skin. His only advantage is that his eyes are big and bright.
"It's the rain that's coming back! Well! My meat ticket is about to expire, so I went to cut some meat and came back and made some oily buns."

After Zhao Xiaotang said that, he entered the room with pot ears in both hands. He Yuyu was a little disappointed. She thought the other party would bring her a bun to eat.

Now her mind was filled with those fragrant steamed buns, and she didn't notice Zhao Xiaotang's changes at all.
There was no buns to eat, so she had no choice but to walk home, pushing a dilapidated bicycle in her hand. She was no longer in the good mood she had been in at the beginning.
"Brother, what are you doing! Why don't you cook?"

When He Yuyu came back, there was nothing in the cold pot and cold stove. What was even more annoying was that her brother was still lying on the bed sleeping.

"Hey! The rain has come back, I'll go cook for you right now."

He Yuzhu has been in a very conflicted mood these past two days. How can he be in the mood to cook? He didn't even notice what day it was today, but he was still very happy to see his sister back.
As a result, before he got up and walked out of the door, he scratched his head in embarrassment and turned around and said,
"There's nothing to eat at home, either, or..."

He Yuzhu didn't finish his words because he remembered that the elder brother was arrested, the aunt was in the hospital again, and there was no news after the deaf old lady behind was arrested, so he is stuck now.
Seeing his brother like this, He Yuyu suddenly had a bad premonition.
"You are alone at home and you actually say you have no food. How can you make people believe it? And I am already so old, you can't let me go to other people's houses to beg for food!"

After their unreliable father abandoned the two siblings, they had indeed gone through a hard time. She also went to the neighbors to ask for food a few times, but that was all when she was a child.
"Hey! Let me tell you this, something big has happened in the past two days. Let me tell you, this man..."

Next, He Yuzhu told everything he knew.

"So what you're saying is that my father didn't abandon us at all. He even paid us living expenses every month. But as a result, the money was embezzled. The person who embezzled our family's money was still the uncle."

He Yuyu collapsed a little. She had always known the reason why Yi Zhonghai and his wife were so good to his brother? I also know that because I am a girl, they look down on me.

But she didn't expect that her father didn't care about them at all. If Yi Zhonghai hadn't been greedy for the money, how could he have been so miserable as a child? How could I be a beggar and be laughed at by others?
