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

Having watched the original drama, Yang Dalin honestly didn't like Ran Qiuye's appearance.

But I like this character.

Teacher Ran's family is doing well now, but in a few years her parents might be sent to a cowshed, and she herself will be transferred to clean toilets.

But she still hasn't lost her yearning for life.

She didn't give in to fate, but unfortunately she fell in love with Sha Zhu, who also loved her, and then Qin Huairu ruined their relationship.

Yang Dalin thought that if there was a chance, he would let her and Sister Yan become friends in the future, so that he could help her family.

If all else fails, see who's suitable for her and introduce her to someone even more suitable than Sha Zhu.

This matter cannot be rushed; we must proceed slowly. It would be troublesome if we were to cause trouble again in a few years when things take a turn for the better and we end up hurting others.

Yang Dalin and Ran Qiuye each rode a bicycle side by side on their way back to Ran Qiuye's house.

Ran Qiuye talked quite a bit on the way.

She may be a bit confident because of her current family situation.

I wanted to learn more about Yang Dalin.

As a result, Yang Dalin took the initiative and launched an attack.

"Ms. Ran, at your age, shouldn't you be dating someone?"

Yang Dalin didn't need to look at Ran Qiuye to know that she was blushing.

Sure enough, after a while, Ran Qiuye whispered, "Not yet, I haven't met the right one yet."

And you, Comrade Yang Dalin?

"Hey, I already said, we're friends now that we know each other, no need to be so formal. Just call me Da Linzi. You're a little older than me, so I'll call you Sister Qiuye."

I already have a boyfriend, I'll introduce you to him later.

Yang Dalin chose to be direct, to avoid making the other person worry or overthink.

As expected, Ran Qiuye's beautiful feelings collapsed immediately upon hearing this.

He said awkwardly, "Really?"

"Yes, she has a good temper, very gentle and quiet, similar to Sister Qiuye. I'll introduce her to you on Sunday when we have time off."

You two will definitely become good friends.

Ran Qiuye said somewhat awkwardly, "Okay, then I'll wait for your introduction."

Yang Dalin noticed Ran Qiuye's unease but chose to pretend he didn't see it.

Sure enough, Ran Qiuye's confidence waned, and she became less talkative.

Yang Dalin did most of the talking later on. He couldn't stay silent the whole way, since they were still quite a distance from the Ran family. The more open and normal Yang Dalin appeared, the more reassured Ran Qiuye would feel.

Who knew that passing through a gloomy alley would rekindle Ran Qiuye's thoughts?

Because Yang Dalin came to the rescue of the damsel in distress.

There was nothing Yang Dalin could do, even though he had noticed from afar that there were several thugs lying in ambush in the alley.

But we can't just tell Ran Qiuye to take a detour.

They could only continue riding forward with Ran Qiuye in tow.

Suddenly, five or six thugs emerged from the dark alley next door.

Yang Dalin and Ran Qiuye stopped the car abruptly and pulled it against the wall of a house on the side of the alley.

Several people quickly surrounded Yang Dalin and his group.

One of the sturdy, tall leaders, standing over 1.7 meters, pointed a short-handled, red-tasseled spear, more than a meter long, at Yang Dalin and arrogantly walked to the front, saying, "This road is mine, these trees are mine..."

After Yang Dalin's car was stopped, he told Ran Qiuye to move to the side of the wall while he propped the car up.

They rushed straight up.

"Screw your mother's head! What are you trying to do? Don't you want to rob me on the road? Are you going to say something like, 'If you want to pass, leave some money'? Are you trying to harass me because I have a woman with me?"

Before the other person could finish shouting their slogan, Yang Dalin rushed up and kicked the leader, who was still shouting his slogan, several meters away.

He snatched the short-handled red-tasseled spear, held it upside down, and charged swiftly towards the other men.

Yang Dalin quickly defeated all the thugs.

They tied them all up with their own clothes, and gagged the others with their smelly socks.

Sadly, two of them weren't wearing socks.

They borrowed other people's socks.

Leaving behind the leader who hadn't finished his lines after being kicked away, Yang Dalin grabbed his hair and said, "Come on, finish the lines you were about to say."

Yang Dalin's kick was quite forceful; it almost knocked the little leader out of his wits.

At this moment, with his hair being pulled and his hands unable to exert any strength, he cried out, "Boss, I was wrong, I have no more lines."

You've said everything.

Please spare us.

I was blind to your greatness, I was wrong, brother, father, no, grandfather, please forgive your grandson this time.

Yang Dalin slapped him across the face with his left hand, the one that wasn't pulling his hair.

"Who's your grandfather? I don't have an unfilial grandson like you."

Tell me how many times you've done this.

How many times have you robbed? Have you killed anyone? Have you bullied any women?

"I...I'll steal your mother...ah..."

This bastard is no good. He's probably calmed down a bit. He reached behind his back and pulled out a dagger to stab Yang Dalin.

He was deliberately feigning weakness earlier; he's actually a ruthless person.

As it turned out, Yang Dalin was much faster than him.

The moment he pulled out his dagger, Yang Dalin's foot was already at him.

He kicked him away again.

Yang Dalin stepped forward again and broke his arm with two kicks.

The screams were very loud.

This finally attracted the attention of the nearby patrol team.

Half an hour later, Yang Dalin and Ran Qiuye came out of the nearby police station.

Yang Dalin noticed that Ran Qiuye's eyes were brighter when she looked at him.

Yang Dalin thought to himself, "Damn, is this girl up to something again?"

What a tragedy!

When the topic of waves came up, Yang Dalin suddenly thought of a video he had seen in his later years called "Brother Waves".

Yang Dalin suddenly laughed.

Ran Qiuye asked curiously, "Dalinzi, what are you laughing at?"

"Ah, no, I just remembered a joke."

It's alright, Sister Qiuye, let's hurry home.

Don't go home too late, or your uncle and aunt will worry about you.

By the way, my job requires frequent business trips, which allows me to procure some in-demand goods in Beijing.

If your family ever needs anything, please let my sister Yan know in advance.

I'll have her bring it to you.

Yang Dalin always brings up topics that shouldn't be discussed.

He knew that Ran's parents were still working and had a high income, making their family much better off than others, but they couldn't just buy whatever they wanted.

There are limits, and sometimes even if you have money, you can't necessarily spend it.

Besides, her parents' status wasn't suitable for going to the black market.

It's estimated that her parents' health wasn't much better for the first three years.

It would be good if the Ran family could spend some money in advance to help Ran's parents get better.

If he is exonerated in the future, it would be good for him to contribute more to the school.

It's good to teach more students.

As a result, Ran Qiuye did not hear what Yang Dalin said after that, but only heard him mention Sister Yan, and her eyes darkened again.

Yang Dalin called her twice before she reacted.

"Oh, what did you just say about Da Linzi?"

Yang Dalin repeated himself, and Ran Qiuye finally understood and perked up a bit.
