The Life of a Son-in-Law in a Courtyard House

Zhao Yumin stopped Yang Dalin's car and said, "Wait, brother, we still don't know which compound you're from or what your name is."

We definitely have to eat today, and we brothers need to get to know each other better. We can't leave now.

Yang Dalin took a drag of his cigarette, exhaled the smoke, and said, "What, you're planning to find out my name and where I live, just in preparation for revenge?"

Liu Haiyang and Zhao Yumin exchanged a glance, and Liu Haiyang spoke first: "No, no, brother, I didn't mean it that way, really."

Yang Dalin could also see that these two groups of teenagers were not bad-natured.

They weren't as domineering and unreasonable as the group of privileged kids from the compound in the later stages.

Around the time of Zhong Yuemin, the "Wind Rises" incident should have begun.

It's because a large group of people are basically left unattended that things get so chaotic.

This group of people fighting didn't even have a steel pipe or a dagger.

They're sensible enough to know that if someone kills another person at this time, the police are really willing to come and arrest them.

Society isn't that chaotic yet.

When the winds picked up, the public security, procuratorate, and judicial organs suffered extensive damage, and those below them studied every day, cracking down on ideological criminals.

We can't really afford to worry about these petty thugs.

It's also possible that this group mostly consists of people who have suffered hardships, from before liberation to the present.

Those born after liberation had relatively better conditions, but when they grew up and encountered periods of turmoil, they became somewhat lawless.

Therefore, Yang Dalin was still willing to make friends with them.

Their influence might lead to a group of outstanding second-generation officials.

This should be a great help to me in the future.

Thinking of this, Yang Dalin said, "Alright, we became friends through a fight, so I'll accept you as my friends."

Both groups of teenagers were delighted to hear that the expert had recognized them.

Young people admire strength; who wouldn't be proud to have a powerful leader?

In any case, neither of these groups has someone like Li Yuanchao who is unwilling to be inferior to others.

Yang Dalin added, "But even if I acknowledge you, I don't like friends who are always fighting. If you think you know me and then go looking for trouble and come to me for help, then I'm sorry, I won't help you."

Zhao Yumin and Liu Haiyang's groups quickly shook their heads. Zhao Yumin said, "No, no, boss. Our fight was just a verbal argument. We're usually good kids."

Liu Haiyang bluntly exposed him, saying, "It's not a quarrel, it's just that you're foul-mouthed. You called me Haiyan at school, so I called my brothers to ambush you today because it's the weekend."

"If you weren't so foul-mouthed, would I have stabbed you?"

Yang Dalin looked at Zhao Yumin, who cleverly slapped his own mouth and said, "It's my fault, it's my fault, I admit my mistake, I won't call you that again."

Seeing Zhao Yumin's attitude, Liu Haiyang forgave him and snorted.

Yang Dalin ignored the two guys and continued, "My name is Yang Dalin, and I live at No. 95, Nanluoguxiang. I'm not some rich kid. If you want to hang out with me, then we'll leave you to our friends."

If you don't want to pay, or think you're superior, then everyone should go home and find their own mothers.

Zhao Yumin, with his high EQ, quickly stepped forward and said, "No, brother, what are you saying? Before my father joined the team, he was a bamboo weaver in the village."

Upon hearing this, Yang Dalin pressed on, "Your father didn't say that he was once a handsome young man in the surrounding villages, did he?"

Zhao Yumin asked incredulously, "Brother, how did you know? My dad really did say that, but my mom just laughed at him, saying, 'It can't be that their village is the only one in the surrounding area, can it?'"

All the young men had been conscripted, leaving him all alone.

That's how he got the chance to be known as the village's handsome young man.

Everyone laughed when they heard this. Yang Dalin thought to himself, "Could Zhao Yumin's father be the prototype for Old Li?"

However, Li Yunlong is a fictional character; his story is actually a compilation of the deeds of several generals.

However, many generals today come from humble backgrounds, and quite a few even came from bandit families.

It's normal for someone to speak in a sly, unruly manner.

After everyone finished laughing, a bespectacled man behind Zhao Yumin said, "Hello, brother. My name is Li Shufa. My father was a schoolteacher, and my family background wasn't very high."

Liu Haiyang also said, "Brother, my family is the same. My father was a fisherman from the seaside."

Then everyone introduced themselves one by one, and also talked about their family background.

The best one was born into a small landlord family.

However, he severed ties with his family at a young age, and joined the navy because of his education.

This guy is the chubby boy next to Liu Haiyang.

No wonder he has the air of a translator; it turns out his father is a young master from a wealthy landowning family.

However, Yang Dalin did not look down on him. His father, who came from a landlord family, had made meritorious contributions and had survived a hail of bullets.

Overall, however, this group of people had decent values ​​and did not look down on Yang Dalin's status as a commoner from a humble family.

In Liu Haiyang's words, "It doesn't matter if you come from a noble background, as long as you have the ability, you'll be popular anywhere."

Zhao Yumin also chimed in: "Wolves travel a thousand miles to eat meat, dogs travel a hundred miles to eat excrement."

Our brotherhood is based solely on ability and compatible personalities; we don't care about background.

This sounds a lot like Li Yunlong's statement.

Yang Dalin then told them that he had already started working as a driver apprentice at the railway station freight station.

This made them all extremely envious.

It wasn't that I envied the driver's job, but rather that I envied Yang Dalin for being able to earn his own money and spend it as he pleased.

Because they are still relying on their families for food.

The money I use to treat people is the allowance I save from my family.

Unlike Zhong Yuemin, whose parents were investigated and detained, they still received living expenses.

They can manage their living expenses as they see fit.

Before leaving, Yang Dalin said that he would get together with everyone next weekend and asked them to wait for him.

Ideally, everyone should hop on bicycles and go for a picnic in the wilderness.

Just tell everyone to prepare in advance, you don't need to bring anything. He'll treat everyone to roasted wild rabbit and beggar's pheasant.

This made the group of teenagers salivate.

Although each family is well-off, with much better supplies than the average family, they still eat an enormous amount.

I also crave meat.

Zhao Yumin and Liu Haiyang, the two representatives, said, "We'll be here right next weekend to wait for the boss, and we'll go play in the countryside together."

Yang Dalin rode his bicycle away.

Zhao Yumin and Liu Haiyang exchanged a glance. Zhao Yumin said, "Did you see how the boss made his move?"

Liu Haiyang squinted and said, "No, in the blink of an eye, more than a dozen of us were taken down."

It doesn't have the moves of folk martial arts, nor the stance of military killing techniques; it's just that it's strong and fast.

"If one of us gets punched or kicked, we won't be able to get up."

Zhao Yumin scratched his head and said embarrassedly, "We're the same. One of us can't get up."

He's a master.

If we curry favor with them and learn something, we can advance very quickly when we join the army.

Liu Haiyang nodded: "Yes, who knows, maybe there's a master behind our brother. If we can learn even a move or two, it'll be worth it."

For their generation, especially the eldest son in the family, following in their father's footsteps and joining the army may be their preferred path.

Unless you are physically unfit or get into university, you will be assigned a job by the government.

Otherwise, he would most likely still join the army.

Because of this group, the chances of any of them getting into university are slim.
