Siheyuan: Xu Damao corrects his evil ways

Chapter 73 73. The layout of the 4-yard courtyard

Chapter 73 73, Pattern of Siheyuan
  It doesn't matter if people who care feel embarrassed, like Silly Zhu.

He even felt secretly happy.

Show your strength in front of the woman you want to seduce.

This is the unchanging nature of nature.

It was just a farce in the morning, nothing else is clear. In the next few days, the courtyard seemed less harmonious. In the past, the pastoral life of men farming and women weaving, something finally happened under Xu Damao's instigation.

Those female comrades have never understood that economics is the cornerstone that determines family status.

It’s not that I want to pursue it, but there are definitely occasional whispers.

Everyone has his or her own temperament. If the man in the family has a good temper, then there will be murmuring. If it doesn't work, the men throw away their tool bags and let the women go to work to earn some money.

A few quarrels, that's all.

But someone with a bad temper like Ma San was humiliated again that day. After all, I found an opportunity to hold Mrs. Yang down and beat her severely.

Xu Damao didn't know, and it was hard to tell whether the female comrades had been beaten or not.

As the saying goes, a slap in the face is not a slap in the face, especially when a couple fights. Things like getting bruised and swollen in later generations will basically be tolerated these days.

Actually, I thought about it, it’s a very simple thing. Husband and wife are one body, your wife's face is bruised and swollen, and you yourself don't look good either.

This is not mainstream.

Nowadays, people are looking for chewing grains to fill their families’ stomachs. Occasionally finding some fine food to feed the elderly and children at home is something every household should think about.

Yi Zhonghai stayed for a few days, but eventually Comrade Shen in the institute no longer stayed with him.

Knowing that there was no other choice, I had no choice but to leave the hospital.

Yi Zhonghai and his wife were really angry this time, and they did not notify the Jia family when they were discharged from the hospital.

After shouting, he took the two cents directly back to the yard. It will definitely save money than asking Jia Dongxu to go. If you ask Jia Dongxu to go, among other things, Jia Dongxu will have to take some of the nutritional supplements that others bring when they visit Yi Zhonghai for his children to try.

But Yi Zhonghai doesn’t feel that way!

If nothing else, just say that he returned to the yard. Other neighbors have come to visit, and every family is nervous these days. But for many people, they still have two eggs at one place and a small bowl of white noodles at that place. These are things that every household is reluctant to eat.

No matter what kind of person Yi Zhonghai is, as long as they don't break up with each other and live in the same courtyard, they still have to have these worldly relationships.

Naturally, the Xu family and the He family had no hope. These two families were at odds with Yi Zhonghai.

As for the Jia family, Jia Dongxu went to work. Mrs. Jia Zhang came here with Qin Huairu and the children.

What did you bring? A small bowl of stick noodles.

Qin Huairu was so ashamed that she hid it behind her back and couldn't take it out.

But Mr. Jia and Zhang sat down and talked, and after all they were still talking about the car. It's just that the Jia family is in a lot of troubles. The two children haven't eaten white noodles and oily food for a long time.

As Jia Zhang spoke, she scanned the Yi family's room with her eyes, but Li Yun had been on guard against her and had put away those rare objects early on.

The only things left in the main room are a few eggs brought over by the neighbors in the courtyard to visit, a little white flour, and a bowl of stick noodles brought over by the Jia family. Li Yun did not accept anything brought by the Jia family, but left a bowl on the table.

This is quite a slap in the face. This requires other neighbors to come to visit. When they see this good apprentice's house, they have to say something to poke their spine.

But Jia Zhang was completely indifferent.

At the end of the day, he shamelessly mixed a bowl of white noodles with two eggs and went home, saying that Yi Zhonghai, the master's grandfather, specially left it for Bangge to eat.

Yi Zhonghai and his wife were left looking at each other with a wry smile. Li Yun didn't ask Yi Zhonghai why he treated the Jia family so leniently, just like she didn't ask Yi Zhonghai why he set up He Daqing.

This is a tacit understanding that the couple has developed over decades of living together.

Logically speaking, a selfish person like Yi Zhonghai would have divorced Li Yun long ago.

But the couple has lived together for decades and has never blushed. First, Li Yun's eyes are bright, and secondly, Yi Zhonghai is sometimes afraid. He doesn't know what Li Yun knows.

In case of divorce, Li Yun has no hope and will reveal everything she knows. Yi Zhonghai didn't know what the consequences would be.

After get off work in the evening, Jia Dongxu came over and sat for a while, but he was still too depressed to say a word. Yi Zhonghai knew that Jia Dongxu had something on his mind.

The reason why he was willing to choose Jia Dongxu as a pensioner was because, in addition to the threat from Jia Zhang, Yi Zhonghai was right about Jia Dongxu. He is careless, and everything about being happy or unhappy is shown on his face.

And Yi Zhonghai thought, there was nothing that had not taken care of the Jia family recently, so only Jia Dongxu knew about Lao Jia.

It is nonsense to say that Yi Zhonghai was afraid of the Jia family's revenge, or that he was at the registration office.

It is normal for people to die due to accidents in factories. At that time, he was in a panic, so he decided to hide the matter. The death of Lao Jia was designed to be the cause of mechanical failure.

Later, he was afraid of what Lou Bancheng would do to him if he knew the truth, so Jia Zhang took control of him.

But today, saying that I had those concerns is a bit false.

This is because Yi Zhonghai and Jia Dongxu have developed a relationship over the years, and it is also because Yi Zhonghai is worried about the reputation he has developed over the years.

If Yi Zhonghai really had a big story, he would not choose to live in a courtyard. To put it bluntly, if you live in a place like this, if you talk in your sleep at night, your neighbors will accidentally listen to you.

At this time, don’t use the courtyards restored by later generations to describe the current courtyards. How can it be that good?

Most of the houses in the courtyard, except for a few main houses. Most of them have a layout with no front porch and rear building. The quality of the houses is hard to say.

It is normal to have drafts in winter and rain in summer. Because most houses are made of broken bricks and yellow mud, the standard is "even and a handful of mud" with a smooth surface.

The roofs are mainly made of reeds, white ash, hemp, green ash and broken tiles. It is normal for the walls to collapse.

After liberation, although the streets organized people and carried out large-scale repairs several times, they were only repairs and it was impossible to tear them down and start over.

One of the reasons for saying this is to explain why in many later generations of courtyard-style pictures, one courtyard looks like there are only a few households. But in the TV series, there are dozens of families in a courtyard.

Another reason why the Jia family and the Yi family want to plan for the He family's house is because the main house bought by the He family is really an heirloom house. Apart from replacing the tiles, everything else can be passed down from generation to generation.

And Yi Zhonghai spent so much thought and calculated so much for the Jia family, but in the end, Jia Dongxu regarded him as the enemy who killed his father. Can he not be heartbroken?
