Siheyuan, don't mess with me

Liu Meihua was in a bad mood today. She looked at other people's weddings and thought about her own wedding not long ago. It was simply incomparable. What made her even more angry was that she was fooled. When she was dating, she was told that it was the eldest brother Yan Jiecheng, but today she found out that the one she was going to marry was the second brother Yan Jiefang. What the hell was this? After finishing this meal, she didn't know where to have the next meal.

Yan Jiecheng came here today to give a gift. During the training class, Liu Haizhong took good care of him. Now that Liu Guangqi is getting married, it is only right and reasonable for him to come here to give a gift and express his feelings!

"Boss, why are you here?" Yan Bugui, who was writing a gift list, felt both happy and angry when he saw Yan Jiecheng appear in front of him!

"I'm here to give you a gift!" Yan Jiecheng said calmly. Today was Liu Guangqi's wedding, and he didn't want to cause trouble with his old man. It would be embarrassing! Therefore, Yan Jiecheng tried his best to control his emotions!

"Nonsense! You haven't divided the family yet, so why are you offering a gift?" Sure enough, Yan Jiecheng guessed Yan Bugui's reaction. Yan Jiecheng said nothing and left the gift-offering team. It would be unwise to explain to him or argue with him at this time. Fortunately, what he prepared today was not a gift money, but a gift, which he could give directly to Liu Guangqi!

After saying a few words of blessing to Liu Guangqi, Yan Jiecheng left temporarily. There was still some time before he left the meeting. Since he was back today, he would go home and visit his family, otherwise it would be unreasonable!

But when he got home, Yan Jiecheng was shocked. "Hello, who are you looking for?" Liu Meihua, who was sulking and didn't go to watch the fun, was alone at home. Seeing the man pushing the door in, she quickly asked,

"Who are you?" Yan Jiecheng was also very curious. When did a girl appear in the family? She was quite pretty!

"I am Yan Jiecheng's wife, my name is Liu Meihua!" Liu Meihua's words exploded like thunder in Yan Jiecheng's head, making his head buzz!

"Who are you?" Yan Jiecheng asked again unconfidently, and emphasized his tone!

"I'm Liu Meihua, Yan Jiecheng's wife!" Liu Meihua thought that the person didn't hear clearly, so she deliberately raised her voice!

"Girl, oh! Comrade Liu Meihua, when did you get married? How come I didn't know?" Yan Jiecheng heard it clearly, but he didn't understand the specific situation. Did his old man find a wife for him while he was not at home? It seems that she is pretty good-looking. In an instant, Yan Jiecheng was moved and his tone of voice became gentle!

"I was here not long ago! What's the matter?" Liu Meihua asked curiously. The man in front of her looked good, clean and sturdy, with a masculine aura! But why did he speak in a strange and unfocused way?

"It's like this, Comrade Liu Meihua, I am Yan Jiecheng." Yan Jiecheng deliberately straightened his clothes. Fortunately, he was wearing a clean work suit when he came out today, otherwise he would have left a bad impression on others when they met for the first time!

"Ah! Who are you?" Liu Meihua screamed. She was also confused. Although the family had been calling Yan Jiefang the second child these days, she was also very curious. Why was he called the second child when he was obviously the eldest? Did the eldest child die young?

She originally wanted to ask Yan Jiefang in private, but because Yan Jiefang's health had not improved, she didn't dare to stay with her! And she was also very depressed, so she was not in a good mood to talk to Yan Jiefang, so the two of them had been spending these days in silence!

At the same time, because Yan Bugui did not get the back house, he was always indifferent to Liu Meihua and never had a good face!

Marrying a daughter-in-law did not help at all, and there was also one more mouth to feed. Although the money could be credited to the second son Yan Jiefang, he could not get any cash compensation, and Yan Bugui was very unhappy!

In this way, Liu Meihua became a invisible person in Old Yan's house. Yan Bugui ignored her. Yan Jiefang went out early in the morning and came back in the evening. Due to health reasons, the two had no communication at night!

As for the third brother Yan Jiekuang and the fourth brother Yan Jiedi, when they came back from school, they just called her sister-in-law and nothing else. Especially the third brother Yan Jiekuang, because he was forced to move into the living room, he had a lot of resentment towards Liu Meihua, and when he saw Liu Meihua, he treated her as an enemy!

As for her mother-in-law, Li Ruihua didn't talk much to Liu Meihua. Except when Liu Meihua helped her with housework, she could say a few words to her. Otherwise, Liu Meihua was an outsider in the Yan family and often stayed alone! Therefore, she had never known why her husband Yan Jiecheng was the second child!

Now, suddenly someone claiming to be Yan Jiecheng appears in front of her. Liu Meihua must be shocked and angry!

"What are you talking about? Get out of here! Get lost!" Liu Meihua was furious, thinking that this man was trying to molest her while no one was home! He even dared to pretend to be her man. Although Liu Meihua had a bad reputation, she was not someone who could be easily hooked up. The people she dated were all for the purpose of getting married, of course, with the exception of Xu Damao, who was trying to extort money!

"Hey! What's wrong with you, girl? This is my home!" Yan Jiecheng was also confused. How come I can't even go home? What's going on? He couldn't help but get louder!

"Are you leaving or not? If you don't leave, I'll call for help!" Although Liu Meihua had been in love several times and had some flirtations with Xu Damao, she was not someone who could just casually be with strangers, especially now that she was in her own home, so she had to be more careful! She had finally gotten out of that mess at home, and in this new place, she had to maintain her reputation well. Only after losing it would she learn to cherish it, so Liu Meihua was determined not to ruin her reputation again!

Yan Jiecheng saw Liu Meihua's angry face and was really afraid that she would scream out loud. Even if they were at home, he would not be able to explain himself clearly. Especially now that he had become an apprentice in a steel mill, he had to be even more careful!

"Don't shout, I'll go out first. Can't I find someone to prove it?" Yan Jiecheng waved his hands and quickly left the room!

Yan Jiecheng became more and more angry the more he thought about it. Looking at Liu Meihua who was still staring at him, he turned around and went to the middle courtyard. He pulled Li Ruihua out from among a group of middle-aged women!

"Mom!" Yan Jiecheng just shouted, and before he could say anything else, Li Ruihua, whose face changed drastically, grabbed him and said, "Boss, go home and tell us, go home and tell us!"

Chapter 287 I am Yan Jiecheng’s wife!

Liu Meihua, who had just breathed a sigh of relief, saw her mother-in-law hurriedly walking in, holding the man she had just seen!

"Mom! This person just pretended to be Yan Jiecheng!"

"Mom! Who is she? Why is she my wife?"

Two people asked questions at the same time. Li Ruihua knew something was wrong when he saw Yan Jiecheng. He originally wanted to fool him and prove that Liu Meihua was the second son's wife. Unexpectedly, Yan Jiecheng had already returned home and had confronted Liu Meihua!

"Enough! Don't talk, don't get excited, just listen to me!" Li Ruihua should be thankful that there were no idle people in the front yard today, as they all went to watch Liu Guangqi's wedding. The front yard was very quiet at this time!

He suppressed the two people and said, "Sit down first, I will tell you slowly!" Yan Bugui is busy now, and this matter cannot be exposed, and he cannot be called back now, so Li Ruihua can only bite the bullet and start explaining!

"Meihua, don't say anything yet. Let the boss and I talk things out first!" Li Ruihua could only choose Yan Jiecheng first. After all, he was his son and they were a family. He also understood the family situation. He had to stabilize him first and then comfort Liu Meihua!

"The thing is, Guangqi from the backyard wants to get married!" Li Ruihua just started to speak when he was interrupted by Yan Jiecheng, "Mom, what does their marriage have to do with our family!"

"Okay, don't say anything yet. Wait until I finish talking, then you can ask!" Li Ruihua could only treat Yan Jiecheng toughly, otherwise the words she had just prepared would be disrupted again!

"Don't interrupt me before I finish!" Li Ruihua pointed at the two people, "Guangqi is getting married, and there is no room for him in the house, so he set his eyes on the back house in front of our house. You know, your father has been planning these two back houses for several years, and he is preparing to leave them for you to use when you get married. If he rents one, we will definitely lose the remaining one if we don't rent it immediately!"

Li Ruihua patted Yan Jiecheng who was about to speak, and seeing that he had calmed down, he continued, "Your father is thinking of finding a marriage for you as soon as possible, so that you can rent a house, at least this way you can have more space at home!"

Seeing that Yan Jiecheng was not angry, Li Ruihua went on to say, "That matchmaker Wang was greedy for money. Your father gave her five yuan and also promised her that if the blind date didn't work out, he would have to pay one yuan more if he wanted to continue the introduction. That's why Matchmaker Wang introduced you to someone!

But after the matchmaker agreed and paid the five dollars, you couldn't be found. Where did you go?" Li Ruihua stared at Yan Jiecheng and asked!

Yan Jiecheng remembered that Liu Haizhong had asked him before, but he refused and asked Liu Haizhong to keep it a secret! So this is why his family came to him. Yan Jiecheng felt that he had done something wrong and bowed his head without saying anything!

Li Ruihua did not pursue the matter further and continued, "We couldn't find you, but the blind date we arranged showed up. Your father had no choice but to arrange for the second son, Yan Jiefang, to take your place!"

"Ah! Why are you like this!" This time it was Liu Meihua's turn to be angry!

"Meihua, don't be anxious, listen to my explanation!" Li Ruihua quickly pulled Liu Meihua who was about to stand up, "Meihua! We have no choice, the money has been paid, and it can't be refunded. Besides, you also like our second son! You can't blame us!"

Liu Meihua was about to collapse. What was going on? In operas, there were scenes where a sister-in-law went on blind dates for her brother, but I had never heard of a sister-in-law even going on a wedding for her brother. So was she Yan Jiecheng's wife, or Yan Jiefang's wife?

"After the blind date, you agreed to it yourself, and our second son also liked you, so we simply arranged for him to marry you, that's it! We really didn't lie to you, at that time, you liked our second son! We didn't lie to you about this!" Li Ruihua said solemnly.

"Mom! Why did Yan Jiefang use my name when he got married? How can I get married in the future?" Yan Jiecheng said angrily. He got married for no apparent reason. How can he date someone in the future? He got a wife for no apparent reason, and she wasn't his own. Most importantly, he had to shoulder the blame. Even if he explained it clearly in the future, he would still be labeled as a second-married man. Yan Jiecheng felt that he was wronged. He was definitely wronged!

"Isn't your brother a little older? The street office can't issue a marriage certificate! They can only use your name!" Li Ruihua said lightly, not caring at all. In her opinion, these are not a big deal. We are brothers, so what if we suffer a little grievance? Who told us that we couldn't find you in the first place? After all, these are not a big deal. Just talk it out with your family!

"That won't do! Liu Meihua must go to the street office with me today to get a divorce!" Yan Jiecheng said firmly. This cannot be delayed. What if he falls in love with a girl in the future? How will he get the marriage certificate? Will he have to use the name of the second brother Yan Jiefang? If this gets out, it will cause a sensation across the country!

"What are you doing?" Li Ruihua was also angry. It was all in vain after talking for so long! The boss had been away for two months, and his wings had become stronger!

"Why am I joking? Let me ask you, how am I going to get married in the future?" Yan Jiecheng didn't hesitate and directly responded!

At this time, Li Ruihua also thought about this problem, but she still wanted to delay whether or not to let them divorce, at least until Yan Bugui and the second brother Yan Jiefang came back!

"Boss, why don't you wait for your dad and your brother to come back, then sit down together and discuss what to do about this matter! It's not easy for your brother, and it's not easy for your family either. They finally got married, and you broke them up. What are we going to do now?"

"Mom, Liu Meihua and I have divorced, so why don't we let the second son get a marriage certificate with her?" Yan Jiecheng didn't want to take the blame and wanted to get rid of it as soon as possible!

At this time Liu Meihua also woke up from her anger. What Li Ruihua said was right. She had agreed to the blind date. Except for the wrong name, the Yan family did not lie to her about other things. However, did she really want to get a divorce?

But after the divorce, I am remarried. Although I have given birth to a child before, I am still a big girl. I can go out for blind dates with confidence, negotiate conditions and choose! Now it is different. I am a second-hand commodity. Who would want me? Except for those who are old, have poor family conditions, are divorced, widowed, disabled, and ugly, normal people will not choose a remarried woman! Liu Meihua feels that if she gets divorced, her life will be dark. How can she survive and have food to eat? These are the problems she has to face! Therefore, the cost of divorce is too high, and Liu Meihua dare not try it!

Liu Meihua was very conflicted. To be honest, she didn't want to stay at Yan Bugui's house anymore. The conditions at home were too poor. Not only was the food not good, but the main thing was that the family was too cold and had no human touch at all. She was the eldest sister-in-law and the eldest son's daughter-in-law, but she didn't feel the respect she should have. Everyone treated her as an outsider, a stranger! This made Liu Meihua very disappointed and heartbroken!

Moreover, Yan Jiefang had no ability to support himself. Although he went out early and came back late every day, he did not make any money most of the time. Yan Bugui asked every night at dinner that he had not found a job! Liu Meihua was worried about such a man. If one day Yan Bugui did not let her eat at home, how would the two of them support themselves? Would they have to earn money to support the family?

And the most important point is, Yan Jiefang is not good enough, so why should he be a widow at such a young age? Liu Meihua is not an original, and she has enjoyed the fun of it a long time ago, but her actions are just to get married and be deceived! Of course, she can also find someone who can help her solve similar problems, like Xu Damao. If she can find a better one, she can also get money!

But soon Liu Meihua rejected this crazy idea. The first person she thought of was Xu Damao. Although Xu Damao was rich and generous, he was also useless. He had money but couldn't solve the problem. It was still no good! Liu Tao? He was too far away. Far water could not quench near thirst. Besides, Liu Tao was a pauper! If she did this, she would be giving him a bargain. It was too bad!

Liu Meihua also thought of the most serious problem. She was young and beautiful now. If she put in some effort, she might be able to find someone she liked, but what would happen in a few years? What would happen when the novelty wore off? When she got older, what would she do after she turned thirty or forty? Who would want her then? Would she be alone for the rest of her life? Thinking of this, Liu Meihua shuddered!

So Liu Meihua discarded these seemingly crazy but actually very dangerous ideas in her mind. She didn't want to be paraded in the streets with a pair of worn-out shoes hanging around her neck one day!

After thinking it over, Liu Meihua locked her eyes on Yan Jiecheng. Looking at the clothes he was wearing, she knew that he had a job, so at least he could support his family. He also looked strong, so he should be of good quality!

After Yan Jiecheng's training in the boiler room and as a blacksmith, plus he was now well fed, his body was no longer as thin as before. Although he didn't look that strong and full of muscle lumps, he at least looked strong and energetic! Swinging the sledgehammer every day not only exercised his body, but also changed his aura, with a bit of toughness and full of male hormones, which was very attractive to Liu Meihua!

Anyway, your name is on my marriage certificate, and I am Yan Jiecheng's wife! No matter what, I will blame you! Liu Meihua, who had made up her mind, was not in a hurry. She watched Yan Jiecheng and Li Ruihua quarreling in silence!

"Boss, don't worry. They will be back in the afternoon anyway. Besides, you are shouting so loudly. You want everyone in the factory to know. You don't want to embarrass your family!" Li Ruihua's words touched Yan Jiefang. He is still an apprentice and has not been officially hired. If such a thing spreads throughout the factory, it will have a great impact on him!

He was so angry that he stomped his feet, turned around and left the room, "I'll come back in the afternoon!" Yan Jiecheng ran out!

Chapter 288 This marriage must be divorced!

Yan Jiecheng ran out and did not go to the lunch banquet. He kept wandering outside. So when Yan Bugui was having the lunch banquet, he looked around but did not see him. Yan Jiefang and others who rushed back for lunch did not see him either!

The depressed Yan Jiecheng wandered around in the alley. He didn't expect that his refusal to go home would actually mean his refusal of a marriage. Such a good girl was actually taken by the second brother, which made him quite upset!

After walking around, he felt hungry, but the courtyard was still crowded. Yan Jiecheng didn't think of going in. He sat on the steps at the entrance and smoked!

"Brother Jiecheng, when did you come back? Why didn't you go in?" Chen Zhiguo, who had just finished his meal, was about to go out and saw Yan Jiecheng on the steps at the gate!

"I've been back for a while. It's too noisy inside. I'll sit here and rest for a while!" Yan Jiecheng saw that it was Chen Zhiguo and stood up hurriedly!

Chen Zhiguo glanced at the seven or eight cigarette butts on the ground. Without asking any more questions, he took out his cigarettes and handed one to Yan Jiecheng. "Brother Jiecheng, how are you doing now?"

Facing Chen Zhiguo who had helped him a lot, Yan Jiecheng did not dare to neglect him. He took the cigarette and quickly took out a match to light it for Chen Zhiguo. When the two of them were puffing away smoke, he replied, "I have now become an apprentice to a blacksmith, and I am learning from the second uncle's apprentice!"

Being able to join the training midway and still stay here shows how hard Yan Jiecheng works and how serious he is. "That's great! Second Master is a very good master, and the apprentices he teaches won't be bad either. You have to study hard!"

"I definitely will!" Yan Jiecheng nodded. To be honest, without Chen Zhiguo's help, he didn't know where he could find a temporary job. So, facing Chen Zhiguo, Yan Jiecheng's attitude was very sincere!

"Okay, let's not talk any more. Come to my house when you are free!" Chen Zhiguo saw that Yan Jiecheng was in a bad mood, so he didn't want to chat with him any more and prepared to go home to read!

Yan Jiecheng watched Chen Zhiguo leave, hesitant to speak. After Chen Zhiguo took a few steps, he chased after him and said, "Zhiguo, there is something I want to hear your opinion on!"

Chen Zhiguo stopped and looked at Yan Jiecheng, "Brother Jiecheng, what is it?"

Yan Jiecheng looked around. At this time, people were walking out of the courtyard one after another. They were all guests who had finished their meal. He could also faintly hear Liu Hai's hearty laughter coming from far away!

"Let's go! Let's go to my house, it's quieter!" Chen Zhiguo smiled and pulled the hesitant Yan Jiecheng towards home!

In Chen Zhiguo's east wing, Chen Zhiguo brewed a pot of tea, took out a bag of peonies and handed them to Yan Jiecheng. These were stuffed into his hands by Liu Haizhong early in the morning. They were perfect for entertaining guests!

Yan Jiecheng drank a few sips of tea to calm down, then he spoke out the matter, "Zhiguo, what do you think I should do?"

"You mean, the blind date you were given in name is actually Yan Jiefang's wife. You want to go through the divorce procedures now, but your mother disagrees. If the second son goes to get a new marriage certificate, he is not old enough. She wants to wait until the second son is old enough before going through the process. And you are worried that if you have a girl you like during this period, it will be difficult to explain and you won't be able to get married, right?"

"Yes, I'm worried to death. Besides, I'm an apprentice in a steel rolling mill. If I want to get a divorce, I have to go to the factory to get a letter of introduction. If this affects my chances of becoming a regular employee, I'll be in trouble again!" Yan Jiecheng said distressedly. No matter what he does now, he will be in trouble. He doesn't know whether he should get a divorce immediately or wait!

"The first thing I want to tell you is that getting a permanent job has little to do with your divorce. It shouldn't be a big problem. You just need to work hard in the factory!"

Chen Zhiguo took a sip of tea and continued, "I personally think that this marriage should be divorced as soon as possible, otherwise, the longer it is delayed, the more troublesome it will be! Moreover, the street office will probably have to make an explanation for your father's behavior. After all, he is impersonating someone else, so it is best to handle it quietly before this matter becomes a big deal. In addition, your brother Yan Jiefang is not yet of marriageable age, so there is a cooling-off period. Wait until everyone has forgotten about this matter, and then the two of you can go and get a marriage certificate. Isn't it better?"

After listening to Chen Zhiguo's analysis, Yan Jiecheng, who was in a dilemma, also came up with an idea. He planned to go back and reveal his cards and insist on divorce!

"But I'm worried that Liu Meihua won't agree, because my dad was in a hurry to go on a blind date just to rent the house next door, but now someone else has taken it first. My dad must be resentful. I'm afraid that after the divorce, my dad will chase that girl away!"

"I don't think your father will do that, because if he wants to drive your sister-in-law away, then he will have to spend money to hire a matchmaker. Isn't that an extra expense? Moreover, if your sister-in-law doesn't agree and makes a fuss, your father will suffer the loss!" Chen Zhiguo analyzed.

Yan Jiecheng was well aware of Yan Bugui's stingy nature and could not help but nodded!

"Now, the biggest difficulty is your sister-in-law. If Liu Meihua disagrees, you will be in trouble. After all, your name is on the marriage certificate!"

"Then Zhiguo, do you have any good ideas?" Yan Jiecheng was panicked. If he kept dragging it on like this, wouldn't he be a bachelor for the rest of his life?

Chen Zhiguo shook his head. "I really can't do anything about this. You can only communicate with her patiently and see what she wants and try your best to satisfy her!"
