Year after year passed.
The occasional crackling of fireworks could be heard from the few alleys near the courtyard of Nanluogu Alley.
At the same time, there was also the laughter of children.
January 29th, 1962.
As the end of the year approached, the atmosphere in the capital became even more intense.
Wangfujing, the department store factory, and some other places were clearly more crowded.
Yi Family, Siheyuan, Atrium.
Yi Hongjun wore a windbreaker with a woven ribbon and a small cotton hat.
"More than half a year has passed.”
Yi Hongjun looked at the snowflakes outside and felt mixed emotions.
It had been more than half a year since he transmigrated.
During this period of time, his uncle and aunt treated him as their own child.
Other families would give it to their children, but they would think of ways to give it to Yi Hongjun.
This made Yi Hongjun's days on this land exceptionally rich and happy.
In the future, there would be cell phones, computers, and the Internet.
For Yi Hongjun, he was more willing to live such a life.
He still had his worries and company by his side.
Yi Hongjun pulled on his coat and went out, heading towards the old couple's house.
As it was New Year's Eve, he had promised the two elders to bring him to buy New Year's goods. Therefore, Yi Zhonghai took a day off.
"Uncle and Aunt, are you done packing?”
The Yi family's door was opened. Aunt Yi was helping Yi Zhonghai tidy his clothes.
"Don't worry. One day is enough for us to prepare for the new year.”Aunt Yi tidied Yi Zhonghai's wrinkled clothes and then Yi Hongjun's clothes.
After packing up, Aunt Yi felt that it was not bad, so she left with her people.
"So the whole family has gone out.”
The three of them had just walked out of the door when they bumped into Qin Huairu. Qin Huairu smiled sweetly at them.
It had to be said that Qin Huairu was indeed very capable.
After she married into the Jia family, she cleaned up the entire house and got along well with the people in the courtyard.
In private, many people in the courtyard were envious of Jia Dongxu. They all said that the Jia family was really lucky to be able to find such a good wife. It was really the blessing of eighteen generations of ancestors.
"Yes, have you prepared the New Year's goods at home?”
Yi Zhonghai and Yi Hongjun were both men, so they couldn't say much. They could only reply with their aunt.?
Qin Huairu smiled awkwardly and said," You saw it yourself. We're both from the countryside. We don't have any rations and don't have much money. When we buy things during the New Year, we're always waiting for Dongxu.”
Jia Dongxu was only a first-class worker. He didn't pass the promotion exam, so his salary was the same as before.
Yi Zhonghai could do nothing about it.
He didn't deliberately not teach Jia Dongxu. When he taught Jia Dongxu, he had always taught him everything he knew.
But Jia Dongxu seemed to be unable to learn well.
No matter how good his teaching skills were, it was impossible for him to teach such trash well.
"Huai Ru."
Aunt Yi sighed helplessly." You're Dongxu's daughter-in-law. You have to educate him well. When he gets promoted, his life will be much better in the future."”
"I wanted to convince him, but…"
As soon as Qin Huairu said this, her eyes immediately turned red and she had a resentful look on her face."But every time I went to look for him, he pretended not to hear me or shouted at me. My mother-in-law didn't care, I…"
Qin Huairu seemed to have been poked at a sore spot as tears flowed down her face.
Seeing this scene, Yi Hongjun's expression immediately changed.
Qin Huairu had ulterior motives.
Yi Hongjun was not a fool.
This was not a joke.
Yi Hongjun looked at Aunt Yi and his heart moved. Before she could speak, Yi Hongjun spoke first.
"Auntie, let's go first."
Yi Hongjun's sudden words snapped Aunt Yi back to her senses. She hurriedly said to Qin Huairu," We'll talk later," and left.
Qin Huairu stomped her feet in anger as she watched the Yi family leave. She then returned to the Jia residence in a huff.
"How is it?" Jia Zhangshi asked impatiently the moment Qin Huairu entered the room.
"I didn't succeed," Qin Huairu replied.
"Why didn't it succeed?"
When Jia Zhang-shi heard this, she immediately panicked and said,""Yi Zhonghai's family has been supporting our family for so many years.”
Every year during the Spring Festival, they would gather together. The Jia family also took advantage of the situation. Every time, they would only take out some vegetables and take advantage of others to let the whole family eat a sumptuous meal.
Without the Yi family, the Jia family's days would be hard to say.
Qin Huairu glanced at Jia Zhangshi and said helplessly,""Before I could speak, Yi Hongjun interrupted me.”
In fact, Qin Huairu could not figure out why Yi Hongjun had stayed here for more than half a year.
Every time he saw her, he would have a feeling of avoiding her. Even if he couldn't avoid her, he would look at her with a gaze that could see through people.
This time was no exception.
She did not believe that Yi Hongjun's sudden interruption was unintentional.
As long as Aunt Yi spoke, she could take the opportunity to make a request. However, at this juncture, she was interrupted by Yi Hongjun.
"That fellow from the Yi Clan is truly a bastard.”
Jia Zhang-shi said angrily," Didn't they all go out to buy things for the new year? When they return home, I'll personally visit them. Let's see if they still have the face to refuse."”
"It's better if you don't go, Mom.”
Qin Huairu stopped her. Seeing that Jia Zhangshi was about to flare up, she hurriedly advised,""First Master is Yi Hongjun's uncle and also the steward of this courtyard. If we fall out with him, how can our family survive in this courtyard?”
"What do you think we should do?" Jia Zhang-shi's face was full of frustration.
She understood Qin Huairu's intentions, but she was unwilling to give up on the Yi family's huge cake just like that.
"We'll talk about this when Eastdawn returns.”
Even though Qin Huairu was exceptionally intelligent, she was still a little hesitant at this moment.
"Alright, Dongxu is the head of the family, so this matter naturally has to be decided by him.”Jia Zhangshi also nodded.
