Age, Tragedy, and Miserable Wife
The next day, New Year's Day, around 7 AM.
He Yuhao was still resting in the bedroom.
Last night, he played Fight the Landlord with this group of people until two in the morning.
Too sleepy ~
"Creak ~"
Suddenly, the door was opened, and he was so frightened that he immediately opened his eyes.
He saw He Yushui and Guan Xiaoguan poking their heads in.
"What are you guys doing? Aren't you going to sleep a little longer?"
Speechless, he rubbed his nose and closed his eyes.
Seeing this, Guan Xiaoguan's eyes turned anxious. Thinking that He Yuhao was not feeling well, she hurriedly walked over.
He placed the bowl of pork and chives dumplings on the bedside table.
She stretched out her soft, jade-like hands and placed them on his temples, gently massaging him.
He Yushui looked at the posture and then looked at the candied date ginger tea in his hand.
Its big eyes rolled around, and its neck shrank as it gently closed the door.
As he walked to the main hall, he drank the bowl of ginger tea.
As soon as he heard the door close, He Yuhao reached out his hand.
He placed his hand on Guan Xiaoguan's back and pulled her gently.
Guan Xiaoguan was like the other pole of a magnet, sucked into He Yuhao's arms.
The two of them looked at each other. Guan Xiaoguan felt his gaze getting more and more passionate.
Her cheeks quickly turned red, and her eyes glistened with tears. She began to avoid her gaze.
" Yes, yes. Don't be like this. I'm here to…"
"Oh…"
Before he could finish, He Yuhao stopped the tool that was speaking.
A long time, a long time…
"Huff ~ Huff ~"
She opened her red lips slightly and slowly calmed her breathing.
In fact, Guan Xiaoguan could no longer feel the existence of her lips.
Numb ~
The beautiful sight of her lowered eyebrows made him want to kiss her again.
Guan Xiaoguan, who had been on guard from the corner of her eyes, immediately stretched out a hand and pressed it against his face.
"Second Brother, you…"
"Bang!"
Guan Xiaoguan was about to speak when the door was suddenly opened.
She was so frightened that she almost fell to the ground.
Fortunately, He Yuhao's large hands were tightly wrapped around her slender waist.
Looking at the door, it was his big brother, He Yuzhu, not Old Man Guan.
Instantly, he heaved a sigh of relief.
However, he took a closer look at He Yuzhu's expression.
He Yuhao frowned. What was going on?
Why was his expression so gloomy on the first day of the Lunar New Year?
"What's wrong? Brother?"
Guan Xiaoguan also realized that something was wrong and slapped He Yuhao's hands away.
She supported herself by the bed and sat on the chair where He Yuhao had placed his clothes.
"Big brother, did something happen?"
"Haozi, we have to hurry back. Something happened in the courtyard.”
He Yuzhu's voice was very low and steady. Sadness overflowed from his mouth.
He Yuhao was confused. What did he mean?
"Grandma Zhang? Or a big uncle?"
He Yuzhu looked at Guan Xiaoguan and hesitated, but he still said it.
"No, it's Qin Huairu. She said that she froze to death at the door of your room.”
" What?!"
"Brother, are you kidding me?"
He Yuhao's eyes widened in shock.
For the first time, he had so many complicated thoughts in his heart.
Qin Huairu was dead?
Frozen to death?
Died in front of his room?
This…
But the next second, he immediately turned to look at Guan Xiaoguan.
The latter did not look surprised, but there was a hint of worry in his expression.
He reached out and gently held her hand.
"Don't worry, didn't I tell you last night?”
"Firecrackers…"
"Alright, alright, stop talking. Hurry up and go back with Eldest Brother to take a look.”
Guan Xiaoguan blushed.
She immediately raised her other hand and covered his mouth with her palm.
It was not the time to joke around.
He Yuhao pulled her hand down and looked at He Yuzhu.
"Brother, wait for me. I'll put on some clothes.”
"Alright, I'll wait for you outside. We'll probably have to walk on foot in this weather.”
He Yuzhu turned around, closed the door, and left.
He Yuhao watched his brother leave and gently pulled Guan Xiaoguan's hand.
He pulled her into his arms again and leaned his mouth against hers without a word.
After a short minute,
He Yuhao leaned his head against Guan Xiaoguan's ear.
"Don't think too much. If you have any questions, wait for me to come back.”
"Yes ~"
Guan Xiaoguan blushed and responded like a mosquito.
He Yuhao wrapped his arms around her slender waist and put her on the bed.
He quickly got up, put on his clothes, and left.
"Explain to Grandpa that you have no choice but to go.”
"Don't worry, it's fine."
Guan Xiaoguan nodded, stood up with all her might, and carefully helped him adjust his collar.

20 minutes later
courtyard homes
The two brothers were also lucky. They met a friend from the government who drove them back to the courtyard house.
Otherwise, he would have to use his legs to get here in at least an hour.
"Qin Huairu, don't even think about marrying again!”
"As long as you marry in, don't even think about escaping!”
“…………”
Before the two of them could get close to the courtyard, they could already hear the howling and cursing inside.
From the sound of it, it should be that selfish mother-in-law, Grandma Zhang.
"Yo, Haozi and Silly Zhu are here."
"Haozi, look at you. It's the new year, and you're in front of the widow's frozen door.”
"F * ck, don't talk nonsense. Can you open a door?”
“…………”
In this courtyard, not only were there gossipy women, but there were also men.
There was a lot of discussion.
He Yuhao didn't say anything. He slowly took off his hat.
She looked at Qin Huairu, who was leaning against an auntie's chest. Her face was pale and her lips were black.
Her long eyelashes were covered in frost.
The faint mist around her nose proved that she was still alive.
Fortunately, he was still alive ~
Even so, Qin Huairu's miserable appearance was truly overwhelming.
Memories flashed in his mind frame by frame…
In those days, she called him brother and he called him sister.
He did his best to help her without any selfish desires.
There was pure concern and a little appreciation.
She did not know when it started, but her feelings for him had changed subtly.
He chose to escape, and she was powerless to chase after him.
A widow with three children, a relationship that had been cut off in its infancy.
The helplessness of human nature ~
The helplessness of life ~
The helplessness of the times ~
There were tears flowing in his eyes.
Heartache, feelings, sympathy, pity, and so on.
He had originally thought that Qin Huairu would be on good terms with his elder brother.
Unexpectedly, this time, the powerful driving force of the plot had failed!
He Yuhao raised his head, trying hard not to cry.
After so many years of suffering, the burden of a family finally crushed her?
He Yuhao didn't care about the expressions of the people around him, nor did he care about what they thought.
He squatted down slowly and reached out his hand, wanting to send Qin Huiru to the hospital.
"Put it down!"

After the Haze, It's Always Sunny
Grandma Zhang grimaced, her eyes ferocious. She raised her trembling hand and pointed at He Yuhao.
He whispered into the ears of the three children in his arms and said in an extremely mournful voice.
"Remember, this is the bad person who caused your mother to be like this!”
The three children looked up at He Yuhao with tears in their eyes.
Little Uncle He?
Isn't Uncle He the one who often helps us?
Not only did the three children think so, but even Second Uncle could not help but think so.
"Grandma Zhang, you can't say that. When Haozi was in the courtyard, everyone saw how much he helped you.”
"These days, Haozi didn't come back at all. Even the gifts were sent by Silly Zhu.”
"Don't slander me and repay kindness with ingratitude!”
Second Uncle said these words in one breath and righteously.
Coupled with the fat on his cheeks, it was comparable to a contractor.
First Uncle looked at him strangely and took half a step forward.
"Grandma Zhang, you can eat whatever you want, but you can't say whatever you want.”
"If you're not satisfied with Haozi, you can say it in private, but you can't say it in front of a child!”
First Uncle and Second Uncle had a rare consensus.
Their words also set the tone for Grandma Zhang's behavior. Nonsense!
That selfish mother-in-law had been a burden to Qin Huiru for so many years. Everyone had seen it.
He Yuhao glanced at the second uncle, who immediately gave him a fawning smile.
There was no reason for him to curry favor with her. Last time, he brought people to rob Lou Xiao'e's house and stole a few pieces of gold and silver jewelry.
He thought that He Yuhao would come after Lou Xiao'e's parents.
But after such a long time, there was no news at all.
Lou Xiao'e had been here a few times, but she never mentioned this matter.
He was relieved.
That was why he was trying to please He Yuhao this time.
"Grandma Zhang, Qin Huiru can still be saved. Don't delay the best opportunity.”
The selfish granny didn't say anything. She just stared at him fiercely with two streams of tears on her face.
He looked as if he wanted to tear his skin off, eat his flesh, and drink his blood.
It seemed like he was the one to blame for this situation.
"Alright then."
He didn't want to stay any longer. He turned around, looked at the old man, and took out 2,000 yuan from his pocket.
"First Master, this money will be used to treat Qin Huiru's illness. The rest will be left for the three children.”
"Please seal this room for me later. Thank you.”
—————————————————
After 7 PM
master bedroom
"What's the reason?"
Guan Xiaoguan listened as He Yuhao recounted Qin Huiru's incident in detail.
Her emotions and expression were complicated, and she did not know how to describe them.
He Yuhao stroked the hair on her forehead and sighed.
"I don't know, and I don't want to know.”
At first, he was stunned by the impact of death.
Later on, when he realized that he was not dead, he slowly understood his thoughts.
Was he to blame for this?
No wonder!
He could only blame himself for insisting on helping Qin Huairu's family back then.
"Alright, go to bed early."
Guan Xiaoguan stood up and kissed his forehead lightly.
"Yes."
Under the dim light, Guan Xiaoguan looked so beautiful.
But after this incident, He Yuhao didn't have the mood to do so.
After Guan Xiaoguan left, he lay on the bed.
Looking at the moon in the sky, his thoughts drifted into the distance…
—————————————————
The days always moved forward. After the haze, it was always sunny.
He Yuhao did not ask if Qin Huiru was well or how she was doing.
Perhaps the two of them still had some interactions, but it was definitely not now.
On the eighth day of the new year, Immortals Gathering Tower began to operate.
He Yuhao, Han Chunming, and Zhu Yongchang went to Shen City to discuss the department store channel.
The location of the department store was also found, which was the most crowded place in the city.
Moreover, the renovation began on the same day.
Time flies, this day
Aijiajia department store
In front of the door, there was a sea of people. If not a thousand, there were at least eight hundred.
Dozens of young security guards in black security uniforms held their batons tightly against the crazy crowd.
Because of the boss's repeated instructions, they could not make a move.
He could only use his strength to carefully push these people away.
His tender face was flushed red. His upper body leaned forward, and his feet were firmly planted on the ground.
In the only open space in front of the door, He Yuhao was holding a super loudspeaker.
It was already spring, and he was wearing a jacket.
Originally, Han Chunming was the most suitable person to host this matter.
However, Han Chunming was invited by a beautiful woman and didn't have time to come.
Moreover, his interest was no longer in business.
"Don't squeeze, don't squeeze ~"
"Everyone, uncles and aunties, handsome men and beautiful women, listen to me, listen to me ~"
"Don't worry about not having enough goods.”
"I just need everyone to pay attention to one thing, and that is to be careful. Don't step on anything, don't squeeze, okay?”
It was a grand opening.
He Yuhao requested an unprecedented discount of 30% on all products!
The uncles and aunties in front of him were all here for this discount.
Of course, all of this could not be separated from the early publicity.
That was a full half a month of publicity, and the television station's advertisement had even gone through one round!
" Cut the crap, Boss. Hurry up and open the door!"
"Open the door ~"
"Hurry up, my house is short of two water bottles.”
“……”
These people were really crazy!
Everyone had strange looks in their eyes. No one knew what they were trying to do.
He Yuhao turned around and looked at Guan Xiaoguan.
He looked at the time and looked up at the sky.
"Have the inside check again. Is the cashier, the salesperson, the monitoring room, and the security guard all ready?”
"Especially the surveillance room and the patrol staff!”
Zhu Yongchang immediately bent down and walked in.
Two minutes later, she came out again and looked at He Yuhao with a smile.
"Don't worry, Brother Hao. Everything is ready. We're just waiting to open the door.”
He Yuhao nodded slightly and looked at the security guards behind him.
"Alright, get ready. Aijia Department Store is officially open for business ~"
" Hualala…"
