Siheyuan: The Era of Struggle

Chapter 15 Everything is good

Yang Ning looked down at his brother who was staring at him with big round eyes, picked up the chubby boy, held the bicycle with one hand, then smiled and pulled Yang An closer to him.

"Erguai (younger brother's nickname), why don't you go play with Sister Yushui and the others?"

Yang An tilted his head and looked at Yang Ning curiously, and said in a baby voice: "Sister Jie Di said that you will have candy when you come back. Brother, did you bring candy?"

"Haha~" Yang Ning shook Yang An to make him feel more comfortable, then he glanced secretly at the few figures over here.

Ever since He Daqing ran away, He Yushui has become noticeably quieter. Although He Yuzhu usually doesn't skimp on her food and drink, there are some things that he inevitably fails to take care of.

So Yang Liu asked her to help take care of Yang An when she was free, and she would wash her own dirty clothes every day.

Sometimes when He Yuzhu came back late due to something, Yang Liu would let He Yushui have a hot meal at her home.

Looking at He Yushui, who is still quite well-behaved now, Yang Ning also feels that He Yuzhu is now worthy of being a good brother.

As for Yan Jie Di, she is more than a month older than Yang An. Even if the Third Uncle and his wife worked hard seventy years later, they would not be able to raise so many children. Just the milk powder, schooling, medical treatment and housing are not affordable for a small primary school teacher like him.

To be honest, when Yang Ning heard that the third uncle gave this name to his fourth child, Yang Ning thought that the third uncle was planning to have another boy.

When he heard Yang Ning's doubt, the third uncle rolled his eyes at Yang Ning as if he was a fool.

"Jie Di doesn't mean inviting Di or inviting Di. Jie Di means that our family will be untied from now on, and we will not give the fourth child another brother."

After listening to the soul-searching explanation of the Third Uncle, Yang Ning could only leave in shame. This explanation was so vivid that it gave Yang Ning a sense of picture.

At the same time, the four-year-old brothers Yan Jiekuang and Liu Guangtian and Liu Guangfu also secretly looked towards Yang Ning, obviously wanting to see if they could get some candies to sweeten their mouths.

Yang Ning put Yang An on the ground and took his schoolbag from the front of the car.

The school bags of this era were all green canvas shoulder and crossbody bags with a big red five-pointed star on them.

Even so, Yang Ning's classmates envied him for a long time.

After all, even in college, many classmates' bags were sewn by their mothers using scraps of cloth.

When Yang An saw Yang Ning's schoolbag, his eyes widened and he stared at the schoolbag in Yang Ning's hand. His eyeballs moved with the schoolbag, as if he was afraid that the schoolbag would disappear in the next moment.

"Hey, this is a sweet treat for you, so go and share it."

Since receiving the special subsidy, Yang Ning is no longer as financially strapped as before, and he always brings something back home every time.

Yang An took the candy from Yang Ning's hand, and the drool from the corner of his mouth was almost falling to the ground.

Yang Ning took out his towel and was about to wipe the corner of his mouth.

"Go away, the second monster's face is so tender, be careful not to scratch it." At this time, Yang Liu, who had already quit her job and was at home, walked out of the house.

Seeing that the towel in Yang Ning's hand was already able to stand upright, he pushed him aside, took out a towel and carefully wiped the drool from the corner of Yang An's mouth.

After giving birth to her second child, Yang Liu found the Lou family, quit her job at the factory, and focused on taking care of the family at home.

At first, the eldest uncle Yi Zhonghai wanted Yang Liushi to give the job to Qin Huairu, but he didn't expect that after everything was discussed, something unexpected happened with Jia Zhangshi.

When Jia Zhang learned that Qin Huairu was going to work in the factory, she went straight to Yi Zhonghai's house to make a scene, saying that she had raised her son with great difficulty, and now someone was angry because she wanted to enjoy a few days of peace and quiet.

It is said that Yi Zhonghai allowed a beautiful young wife to appear in public with ill intentions and did not want the Jia family to live in peace.

As for whether Yi Zhonghai was on the right track or not, we will not talk about it for now, but the opportunity to completely solve the hidden dangers of the Jia family was lost because of Jia Zhang's disturbance.

"Mom, you didn't treat me like this in the beginning. We are both sons, but the difference in treatment is too big, isn't it?"

Yang Ning looked at the little fat boy who was enjoying himself with his eyes closed with an indignant look on his face, his eyes full of resentment.

"Go away, go away. When I was your age, I not only had to take care of the eldest young master, but also your father who had just come to the city and knew nothing. How could I have the time to take care of you?"

Yang Liushi was not at all shy about this, but Yang Ning could feel that when his mother said this, the corners of her mouth trembled slightly and her hands moved a little slower.

"Go and have fun. Remember to share some of the candy with everyone. Don't eat too much, or you'll get a toothache."

After Yang Liu wiped Yang An's saliva, she lifted him up and looked at his butt. Seeing that he didn't dirty his pants, she patted his butt gently, put him on the ground and gave him some instructions.

"Got it." After saying that, the guy ran away with his short legs and his butt twisting.

"Why are you back today? I remember today is not Sunday."

Knowing that her youngest son had disappeared in the front yard, Yang Liu looked at her eldest son Yang Ning and asked curiously.

"Didn't I tell you that I'm doing an internship this year and have been doing it for almost a month?" Yang Ning widened his eyes in disbelief. Looking at this careless mother, he felt like crying. This is not the way to be a mother.

"Did you say that?" Yang Liu was confused at first, and after thinking for a while she remembered that there seemed to be such a thing.

However, after she remembered it, the first thing she felt was not shame. Instead, she stared at Yang Ning unhappily for a while, and then pulled Yang Ning back into the house.

"Good boy, Yang Ning, you have really grown up. Now that you have started your internship, why haven't you come back to see us for more than half a month? Do you still have this family in your heart..."

Yang Ning was stunned for a moment. No, when I just came back, you still cared about me, your eldest son.

After just two days you start complaining about this and that, and you wish I would disappear from your sight immediately.

Besides, is it appropriate for you to say this to me now? If I don’t come back, you might forget that you have a son out there, right?

Seeing that her son had become obedient after being scolded by her, Yang Liu nodded with satisfaction: It is my fault if he forgot something because of his old age, but it is your fault if you came back early and then informed me.

What could I, Liu Erniu, do wrong?

After sending Yang Ning back to her room, Yang Liu patted her chest and said, "Oh my god, the old one is so out of tune all day long, and the young one is so noisy all day long, they all forgot that there is an older one outside. Fortunately, the eldest son is considerate of his mother and is easy to fool."

Yang Ning returned to the house and looked at his mother. After seeing her behavior, he smiled knowingly: "Everything is fine!"

Just as Yang Liu was busy in the kitchen and Yang Ning was lying on the bed resting, a heart-wrenching cry suddenly came from the middle courtyard, which sounded quite like that of the second weirdo in the family.

Yang Ning somersaulted off the bed, while Yang Liu turned off the fire, took off her apron, and ran out in a hurry.
