Crossing the Siheyuan
"Brother! Brother? What's wrong with you? Don't just stand there, eat together!"
Ye Chen's eyes began to focus when he heard the young voice.
Then, he looked at the girl in front of him with dark skin and oil stains all over her mouth in confusion.
Everything around him made him look a little dazed.
He didn't even have time to think about what happened.
Ye Chen could not help but gasp at the sudden pain.
A large amount of unfamiliar information flooded into his mind.
In a moment, Ye Chen understood his situation.
He had transmigrated!
He had traveled back to the world of Love in the Courtyard in the early 1960s!
After his parents passed away in the past two years, he had to take care of his sister in order to survive.
Jordan, who was idling around, took up the burden of life and became an apprentice in the kitchen of the rolling mill.
In the 1960s, apprentices who had just started working only earned 18 yuan a month.
Twenty in the second year and twenty-two in the third year.
Jordan had been an apprentice for two years and received twenty yuan a month.
Although he had to tighten his clothes and eat, he could still barely survive in this era with his sister.
He looked around and saw dilapidated walls and furniture that looked very old.
The girl in front of him who was frowning and curiously sizing him up was his cheap sister, Ye Jiaxin.
Her eyes were bright, but her face was sallow. It was obvious that she was malnourished.
The girl was six years old this year and had just entered the first grade.
Ye Jiaxin was much more sensible than her peers due to the sudden change in her family.
Although Ye Chen was used to idling around, he did love his sister very much.
He had been busy preparing for a long time. He had also taken out the food and meat coupons he had saved during this period of time just to celebrate her birthday.
Realizing that he was not hallucinating, Ye Chen did not know whether to laugh or cry.
Of all time periods, it had to be the sixties!
In this era, if you were a dragon, you had to coil up. If you were a tiger, you had to lie down.
It was even harder to achieve something than to ascend to the heavens!
Most importantly, he was still living in this courtyard.
Ye Chen had naturally watched this TV series.
He knew very well about the people and birds inside.
The ingrate was a thief.
The pretty widow Qin Huairu was addicted to sucking blood.
The seemingly simple and honest Silly Pillar couldn't think of a way to ride her.
Xu Damao really made a mess in the courtyard.
The three masters were scheming all day long.
Even the deaf old lady in the courtyard was occasionally confused. She only had her obedient grandson, He Yuzhu, in her heart!
In this courtyard filled with the smell of humans and birds, Ye Chen had to tread on thin ice with every step he took.
It was a very simple logic.
A modern person who lived in a peaceful era and had developed a reliance on all kinds of electronic products and artificial intelligence.
Why did he think that he could live better than these people who struggled to survive every day?
To him, the only advantage he had was that he knew the development of the plot, was familiar with each character's personality, and was clear about the context of this era.
Since he was here, he should take it as it was.
Ye Chen sighed. This was the only way he could comfort himself.
Living in this era, who wouldn't have some selfish motives?
Reality was much more complicated than what he had seen in the TV series.
Ye Chen did not want to get involved in He Yuzhu's mess.
He had yet to understand his own life, so how could he have the experience to care about others?
Of course, the premise was that these people did not take the initiative to provoke him!
"Dong dong dong"
A series of hurried knocks on the door interrupted Ye Chen's thoughts.
"Who is it?"
"I'm Second Uncle."
"Second Uncle? Liu Haizhong?"
Ye Chen frowned.
Other than Xu Damao and Jia Zhangshi, Liu Haizhong was the worst in the courtyard.
Not only did he have a morbid pursuit of power, but he also did things by hook or by crook.
He was already so easily beaten and scolded by his own son, let alone others.
If he got involved with such a person, he would never have a stable life in the future!
However, it was a little deliberate to be too resistant since it was his first time here.
"He's here."
Ye Chen answered and got up to open the door.
The 200-pound fatty in front of him was Liu Haizhong.
"Second Uncle? What's the matter?"
" Xu Damao lost his chicken. There's a meeting in the courtyard. You…"
The bangs lifted his head slightly. Whether it was his tone or his expression, it gave Ye Chen a feeling of bossiness.
However, he paused halfway.
He subconsciously twitched his nose and his Adam's apple moved up and down.
"Hmm? What's that smell?"
Liu Haizhong was about to enter the house when Ye Chen reached out and stopped him.
"Second Master, didn't you say that there was going to be a general meeting of the entire academy? Let's go over quickly and not delay the important matters in the Council.”
Ye Chen did not want to have anything to do with Liu Haizhong.
If he saw the fish on this table, he might do something.
"I say, kid, you're really capable now. Do you know who I am? You even dare to stop me? Get out of the way!"
His eyebrows were knitted together in his bangs. He naturally did not have a good expression after being humiliated by such a scum.
Ye Chen remained indifferent when he saw the other party flaunting his official authority in front of him.
Not wanting to cause trouble did not mean that he was afraid of trouble.
"Second Uncle, what are you doing here? Grandpa One is urging you to quickly call him to the front yard for a meeting!”
Seeing that someone was rushing him, Liu Haizhong did not continue to pester him.
He only glared at Ye Chen fiercely.
Then, he seemed to have thought of something and looked into the room meaningfully.
Only then did he continue to inform the other residents in the courtyard.
"Brother, what's wrong?"
"There's a meeting in the hospital. They said that Xu Damao's chicken was stolen.”
Ye Chen looked at the calendar thoughtfully.
This year was 1961, four years later than the timeline of the TV series.
Logically speaking, stealing a chicken with a stick wouldn't happen so soon.
It was most likely that his appearance had triggered some kind of butterfly effect.
He did not think too much about it. He Yuzhu and Xu Damao loved each other and killed each other. Ye Chen did not want to get involved.
Ye Chen picked up the stool at home and glanced at the girl."I'm going to the meeting. You can eat at home in peace.”
"No, I'll go too."
