Siheyuan: Walking the Path of Qin Huairu

On the morning of the 29th day of the twelfth lunar month, Xu Huizhen was cleaning the tavern. The New Year had to be festive, and the tavern had to be cleaned up as well.

She was humming a little tune, sweeping here and wiping there. The door curtain was lifted, and a person came in. Xu Huizhen looked up and was shocked. Isn't this Mr. He Bing, the TV actor from the previous life? Could he have traveled through time too?

Fortunately, she was a 50- or 60-year-old soul, and she was calm and composed, so she didn't scream. Then she heard the person ask, "Excuse me, is Cai Quanwu here?"

Cai Quanwu was sent out by her to sell goods. He kept the things rewarded by the system for his own household use, and she asked Cai Quanwu to deal with the rest while the demand was high before the New Year.

Xu Huizhen calmed herself down and quickly replied, "Cai Quanwu has gone out and hasn't come back yet. You are..."

The man said, "Oh, my name is He Yuzhu, and I'm Cai Quanwu's newly recognized nephew."

Xu Huizhen's heart was in turmoil. Wasn't He Yuzhu the male lead in the TV series "Love in the Courtyard"? In other words, the man in front of her was not He Bing, but He Yuzhu. These two TV series were crossed together!

Seeing this beautiful woman in front of him, with two big braids and two big eyes blinking, looking absent-minded, he didn't know what she was thinking about. He Yuzhu asked again: "Excuse me, who are you?"

Xu Huizhen came back to her senses and replied, "My name is Xu Huizhen, and I'm the owner of the tavern."

He Yuzhu was a very outgoing person. He smiled and said, "You are so young, and you have become the shopkeeper. That's amazing."

As he spoke, he gave a thumbs up. Xu Huizhen smiled and said, "You are just forcing me to do something. Why don't you sit down and have some tea and wait for a while?"

He Yuzhu waved his hand and said, "No, I have things to do. Please tell my second uncle to come to my house tomorrow to celebrate the New Year. He will be lonely. There are only me and my sister in our family, so we are not many people. Let's have some fun together."

Xu Huizhen asked tentatively: "Okay. Where do you live?"

He Yuzhu: "I live at No. 95 Nanluoguxiang, Hongxing Courtyard. My second uncle knows." Xu Huizhen thought to herself: "It's confirmed, this is Shazhu. But he doesn't look stupid, and he's quite good at talking."

Seeing that Xu Huizhen always looked daydreamy, He Yuzhu didn't stay long. He just said hello and left.

Looking at Sha Zhu's departing back, Xu Huizhen sighed inwardly: What a pity, such a vigorous and energetic young man was delayed by those beasts in the courtyard and turned into an old bachelor.

In fact, what's wrong with Sha Zhu? When he was in his twenties, he had a simple wish, which was to marry a beautiful wife and live a happy life with his wife and children.

Logically, he has good hardware. He has no parents to control him, and his wife can be the master of the house as soon as she gets married.

The house was a private property with a title deed, and it had two main rooms and a wing room in a quadrangle courtyard. The main room was where the owner lived at the beginning, and the house had a large opening and was spacious. Such housing conditions were considered quite good in the city.

I have cooking skills and am proficient in Sichuan and Tan cuisine. I earn 37.5 yuan a month and am a cook, one of the eight major positions. The eight major positions are the most enviable positions in this era, including salesperson, driver, postman, childcare worker, barber, projectionist, cook, and art troupe member.

In theory, it is easy to find a partner with such conditions. As the saying goes: A three-year drought will not starve a cook to death. But there are too many top-notch people in the yard. The top-notch person is the master: Yi Zhonghai, the Moral God. This person is shrewd, cunning, and takes advantage of his age. (Do you have any synonyms?)

He has no son. For his own retirement plan, relying on his status as an uncle, he brainwashes Sha Zhu every day, asking him to respect the elderly, unite the neighbors, and help the widow. Sha Zhu must find a wife according to his wishes. Of course, the most ideal situation is that Sha Zhu marries the widow Qin Huairu, so that the couple can provide for him together in his old age.

The second best is Qin Huairu, a widow with three children and a bit of beauty. In order to let her family have good food, she flirts with Sha Zhu every day and asks him to help the Jia family. Whenever Sha Zhu goes on a blind date, she goes to sabotage it. She and her mother-in-law Jia Zhang play the good cop and the bad cop, and they tie Sha Zhu tightly.

The third best is Xu Damao, Sha Zhu's mortal enemy. The two have been at odds since childhood. Xu Damao is mean and likes to tease Sha Zhu. Sha Zhu, relying on his strong physique, has beaten Xu Damao more than once. Therefore, whenever Sha Zhu goes on a blind date, Xu Damao will go and say bad things to sabotage him.

It is not easy to get married, but it is much easier to break up a marriage.

Under the siege of these people, Sha Zhu was almost forty and still hadn't married. Finally, he had to marry Qin Huairu, and like an old ox, he helped the Jia family and raised the three children of the Jia family to adulthood.

Qin Huairu had an IUD inserted after her husband died, so she never gave birth to a child for him. All of Sha Zhu's property went into the bottomless pit of the Jia family.

What a complete loser. Even more miserable than the original owner of this body.

Sha Zhu and Xu Hui are really different. Xu Hui is really kindhearted and rushed to help He Yongqiang's family, while Sha Zhu was tricked by the beasts in the yard and fell into the trap step by step.

If you say Shazhu is stupid, he is the male protagonist, how can he be stupid? He has a lot of ways to deal with the second and third uncles in the yard. No one can get the upper hand from him. When he interacts with Director Yang of the steel mill, and even with the big leaders, he is very eloquent and has many tricks like honeycomb coal.

When Xu Huizhen watched this TV series, she was so angry that her teeth ached. She felt sorry for Sha Zhu, but now that she has seen the real person, do you think it is fantasy or not?

Just as she was daydreaming, she heard a "Ding Dong!" The pleasant mechanical sound came to her mind again, "The system has issued a new task: alienate the relationship between He Yuzhu and Yi Zhonghai. The system rewards 100 kilograms of pork and RMB ."

Xu Huizhen complained: "Is your justice system really good for alienating people?" But she still accepted the task happily. Who can resist money?

But the Chinese New Year is coming soon, so let’s talk about it after the New Year. Let them have a harmonious New Year first.

In the afternoon, Cai Quanwu came back. Xu Huizhen told him the purpose of He Yuzhu's visit. Unable to suppress her curiosity, she asked, "Cai Quanwu, is He Yuzhu your nephew?"

Cai Quanwu said: "His father and I are half brothers. But we lost each other for many years. A few days ago, I went to the Red Star Steel Rolling Mill. He was working as a chef in the cafeteria, and that's how we ran into each other. It wasn't easy for him and his sister, so we recognized each other as relatives."

Cai Quanwu is a man of few words. In layman's terms, he can't say much even if you hit him with three sticks. It's not easy for him to say so much, so Xu Huizhen didn't ask any more questions. The key is that she knows the original plot.
