Beijing in the 1960s.
As the old saying goes, the wind in the north is the rain in the south.
In the middle of winter, the temperature plummeted, and the northern wind blew so hard that it hurt one's face.
Early in the morning, the entrance of the alley was bustling with activity. There were people coming and going, people pouring cinders, and people greeting each other.
Xu Jianguo walked into the alley against the north wind.
"Jianguo, why did you go out so early in the morning?”
An old man who was pouring cinders greeted him.
Xu Jianguo picked up the lunch box in his hand and smiled.
"My fourth brother was making a fuss about wanting to eat Red Star's buns, so I rushed over to buy them!”
"Red Star's buns are authentic. Your fourth son knows how to eat them. Alright, hurry up and go into the house to remove the heat for the child to eat.“
Xu Jianguo handed him a cigarette." See you, Uncle Zhang."”
With that, he entered the courtyard house.
Uncle Zhang picked up the cigarette and was about to put it in his mouth when he saw the words on the cigarette holder and could not help but click his tongue.
"Good fellow, Peony Smoke, you're really rich!”
It was no wonder the old man was shocked.
These days, the price of a pack of Peonies was 39 cents, which was equivalent to two days of labor for a strong laborer in some rural areas.
When she entered the courtyard, she saw the "Glory to Martyrs" sign hanging at the door and couldn't help but sigh.。
In the blink of an eye, he had been in this world for a few years.
His father had died on a foreign battlefield just after transmigrating, and his mother had died of depression because of this bad news.
Not only did his parents die, but he also left behind three younger sisters. The youngest sister was less than two years old.
For this reason, Xu Jianguo, who had good grades, did not go to university.
Instead, he went to his mother's factory to take over and became a fitter.
However, Xu Jianguo didn't think much of it until he got familiar with the people in his yard.
Yi Zhonghai, Liu Haizhong, Yan Bugui, Xu Damao, Jia Zhangshi.
Hearing these names, Xu Jianguo suddenly came to a realization.
Wasn't this the world of Love in the Courtyard?!
No, it should be called " Birds in the Courtyard ".
In the beginning, because of his identity as the son of a martyr, the beasts were still polite to Xu Jianguo.
Until a woman named Qin Huairu appeared, the beasts looked at Xu Jianguo with a disapproving look.
The cause of the matter was a little melodramatic.
Xu Jianguo was a distant aunt, and her heart ached for Xu Jianguo to bring up his three young sisters alone.
She wanted to introduce Qin Huairu to Xu Jianguo behind his back.
According to Qin Huairu's original intentions, she was also a little interested in Xu Jianguo.
After all, Xu Jianguo was tall, handsome, and cultured. He was much better than Jia Xudong.
However, at the thought of Xu Jianguo's three little sisters, Qin Huairu shook her head like a rattle-drum. She did not want to become a mother and serve the three little ones the moment she entered the house.
Originally, it didn't matter if the relationship was successful or not, and the parties involved didn't reveal anything.
But somehow, this matter was found out by Jia Zhangshi and her son.
After Jia Zhang and her son found out, they began to mock Xu Jianguo.
Especially Jia Zhangshi, who would say that Xu Jianguo was a toad lusting after swan meat. She didn't even take a piss to see what kind of conditions she had.
Siheyuan was originally a concentration camp for beasts. They all felt that Xu Jianguo was overestimating himself and wanted to marry a wife with three burdens?!
Dream on!
Since that day, the Xu family had been ostracized in the courtyard house.
Xu Jianguo did not have a good impression of these animals. He was more than happy to not interact with them.
Just like that, a few years passed peacefully.
Because Xu Jianguo was educated and learned quickly, he also became a technician in the factory from an ordinary worker. His monthly salary was 65 yuan.
In an era where pork was only a few cents, 65 yuan was a huge sum of money. It was enough for him to support his three sisters.
However, this was not enough for him and his sister to have meat for every meal, and it was not enough for him to draw 39% of the peony.
In the first year after he transmigrated, he was bound to the check-in system.
From time to time, they would complete the missions issued by the system, and Xu Jianguo and his sister would live a good life.
To put it bluntly, the Xu family's wolfdog, Thunder, ate better than the animals in the courtyard house.
Qin Huairu was filled with regret when she saw the Xu family's good days.
She regretted marrying Jia Xudong and Xu Jianguo.
She regretted telling Jia Xudong about her relationship with Xu Jianguo.
This way, the situation wouldn't be as awkward as it was now. Perhaps Xu Jianguo could help out on account of their old friendship.
However, there was no place to buy medicine for regret.
Jia Xudong had just passed away, and Qin Huairu, who was bringing along her three children, was feeling alive again.
She wondered if she could continue her relationship with Xu Jianguo. With the help of the Xu family, she would not be in such a difficult situation.
"Jianguo, you went out so early!”
Qin Huairu greeted him warmly. She did not look like she had just lost her husband.
When he saw that it was Qin Huiru, Xu Jianguo replied with a " hmm " and pushed open his door.
