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

Does that even hurt? Qin Huairu is just putting on an act.

It didn't hurt at all. Banggeng's vicious little eyes were fixed on Yang Dalin.

Yang Dalin, completely ignoring him, took the doorpost Qi Xiaoning handed him and said, "Sister-in-law Jia, here comes the stick. If you hit him with your hand, he won't remember. It's better to use this stick to whip him."

When Banggeng saw the stick as thick as his arm, his eyes changed, and he cried out, "Mom, it wasn't you who told me to... Waaah!"

Bang Geng's mouth was covered by Qin Huairu, preventing him from continuing.

If Bang Geng were to reveal that Qin Huairu taught him how to get meat, Qin Huairu would be furious.

Qin Huairu forcefully covered the mouth of the stick and said, "What nonsense are you talking about, Brother Dalinzi? Thank you, but this stick is too thick. If you hit the child like this, he'll be ruined."

I took it home to beat it; I have a feather duster at home.

Without waiting for Yang Dalin's reply, he pulled Banggeng and headed home.

Yang Dalin called out from behind, "Sister-in-law Jia, why are you covering your mouth with the stick? Let the child explain himself, hey..."

Qin Huairu pulled the stick and ran even faster, and in the blink of an eye, she entered the Jia family's residence.

The clever neighbors probably already guessed that the child asking for meat was a trick taught to them by Qin Huairu.

We've been neighbors for over ten years, everyone knows each other.

Especially during the day, most of the people at home are women, so naturally, it's still women who understand women best.

Yang Dalin saw Banggeng run away, Qin Huairu also left, and Jia Zhangshi picked up Xiaodang and left as well.

Without the main character, this isn't fun anymore.

He had no choice but to hand the stick to Qi Xiaoning. Yang Dalin picked up Xiao Hong, who was still a little sobbing, and took out a milk candy from his pocket and handed it to her: "Okay, Xiao Hong, be good. There's no more meat, so Uncle will give you a milk candy. Let's not play with that naughty stick anymore, okay?"

Zhao Xiaohong then stopped crying and smiled, clutching the milk candy tightly in her hand: "Thank you, Uncle Lin."

Yang Dalin smiled and kissed the little girl's cheek: "You're welcome. You and your brother can come to our house to play whenever you want in the future. Bring the two older girls from earlier, and the two older boys too."

Uncle will give you candy later.

Aunt Zhao quickly took Zhao Xiaohong from Yang Dalin's hand and said, "Thank you, Dalinzi, your family has gone to so much trouble."

The parents of the children who had just eaten meat also expressed their gratitude to Yang Dalin.

Yang Dalin said, "No need to thank me. We're neighbors. As the uncle, it's only right for me to give the child a piece of meat."

Yang Dalin's soul in his later life naturally didn't value the physical body that much, not to mention he also had a space to sign in.

The other neighbors, all native inhabitants, knew the value of meat these days and praised Yang Dalin.

They praised Yang Dalin for being generous and promising.

However, he also said that he would educate his child well in the future, and that the child should not eat at other people's houses.

The minor incident was thus resolved, but Yang Dalin knew that Bang Geng's visit was definitely taught by Qin Huairu.

Yang Dalin didn't mind giving a little kid some food, but once he knew what kind of people Qin Huairu and Banggeng would become, he really couldn't bring himself to like them.

Moreover, Qin Huairu's actions were somewhat offensive.

It seems Huai Ru is going to get slapped again; she probably doesn't know how thick her penis is.

Does it hurt when you hit someone?

After greeting his neighbors, Yang Dalin went home.

The old women who had been watching stayed behind and chattered about the Jia family.

Yan Bugui's cold gaze suddenly brightened when he looked at the Jia family.

Unable to drink any more, Grandpa Qi suggested that they stop drinking here.

Grandpa Qi seemed to know what kind of person Qin Huairu was, so he didn't say much, just left a message saying to stay away from her family in the future, and then went back to his own home to rest.

He Yushui, looking completely bewildered, had no idea what was going on.

They asked Aunt Qi, and Yang Dalin said he would stay and chat with them, and then go out for a walk.

Aunt Qi told him that if it didn't work, she would buy the bicycle that afternoon, because he couldn't ride Uncle Qi's cart every day.

Yang Dalin agreed, since the money was now available and he needed a bicycle to ride to work, which was about ten miles away.

I still have a watch ticket.

You can buy a watch and keep it hidden away, otherwise it would be too ostentatious.

Upon hearing that they were going to buy a bicycle, Qi Xiaoning wanted to go shopping with them, but was ruthlessly suppressed by her aunt.

It's all because Yang Dalin took them there last time and they got into trouble with three thugs.

Qi Xiaoning pouted unhappily, but Yang Dalin said he would teach them how to ride bicycles once they were bought, which made her stop crying and start smiling.

Yang Dalin went out the door and headed straight for the department store.

Nowadays, bicycle tickets specify which brands you can buy, instead of letting you choose freely when you arrive.

So when Yang Dalin arrived at the department store, he first bought a semi-steel Shanghai brand watch, which cost him 60 yuan.

He went straight to the bicycle shop and picked up a Flying Pigeon 28-inch bicycle according to the words on the ticket.

"28" refers to the wheel diameter, not its name.

I bought a car frame, a triboelectric headlight, and a car lock, which cost me a total of 182 yuan.

Then I went to the police station to register, get a license (similar to our current driver's license), have it stamped with a steel seal, get a license plate, and pay 2.4 yuan in taxes.

Fortunately, industrial ration coupons are not needed now. They will only be introduced next year. Also, it seems that the price of industrial products such as bicycles will rise for a period of time the year after next. A bicycle will cost several hundred yuan, and a steel watch will go from 60 yuan to 180 yuan.

It is a policy implemented by the government to regulate households' savings and prevent them from spending.

So Yang Dalin saved a lot of money when he bought it this year.

After completing the formalities, Yang Dalin went to the hospital to visit Ma San, that silly boy.

The silly boy seemed to be recovering quite quickly. Yang Dalin left him some food and then left to go home.

As soon as Yang Dalin arrived home, he was greeted by envious glances. He had his watch in his pocket, not on his wrist.

Fortunately, that old bastard Yan Bugui wasn't there.

Otherwise, Yan Bugui would be green with envy.

Yang Dalin took Qi Yanhua and her sister, along with He Yushui, to an alley outside and taught them how to ride bicycles.

As for Yang Dalin being able to ride a bicycle, his excuse was that he was used to riding a tricycle and could learn it very quickly.

In his past life, Yang Dalin was also good at letting go of burdens.

Actually, the older the motorcycle, the easier it is to let go of the handlebars.

While the three sisters rested, Yang Dalin would occasionally ride his bicycle to give the children in the yard a ride.

Only Banggeng could watch Yang Dalin with hatred from afar.

He didn't dare to approach her, perhaps because he knew Yang Dalin didn't like him.

I have to say, Bang Geng's intuition was spot on.

In the evening, the girls finally got tired of studying and went home happily.

Aside from the company bicycle provided by Xu Damao's factory, Yang Dalin's bicycle was the first one in the compound.

It's not that Yi Zhonghai and others can't afford to buy tickets, it's just that tickets are too hard to get.

He couldn't bear to spend the money.

He's saving all his money for retirement.

In the evening, a group of men returned from work and were all surprised to see Qi Xiaoning and He Yushui carefully wiping the car with two cloths in front of the Qi family's door.

Only Yan Bugui was heartbroken, because the car must have been bought with the two hundred yuan he had paid in compensation.

I just don't know how Yang Dalin got the tickets.

Yan Bugui was very envious. He had already found a used car he liked, but he couldn't bear to buy it because of its age.

Unexpectedly, a child who had been living in the yard for less than a month made the purchase first.

And it's my own money I'm spending, it really hurts.

So Yan Bugui squeezed to the front of the crowd and said, "Congratulations, Dalinzi, you have the first private car in our compound."

"Dalinzi has a car now, so if anyone needs anything, don't hesitate to lend it to him."
