As for the future, whether he will change as his abilities grow, Chen Jianye hasn't thought about it.
He only does what he believes is right.
Regarding Yu Li, Chen Jianye might occasionally have some fantasies.
But those fantasies are like a high school student looking at an English teacher, just occasional thoughts in his mind.
There will be no action.
They are all residents of the same Courtyard; if he were to do something, rumors would quickly spread throughout the entire Courtyard.
After finishing his meal, Chen Jianye put the dishes and chopsticks into an enamel basin.
He carried them to the front Courtyard and set them down.
Yu Li was washing a duvet cover in the front Courtyard, and Chen Jianye secretly took a few more glances.
His 'second brother' couldn't help but puff out his chest, wanting to express an opinion.
Chen Jianye pushed his cart out the door, and after returning to the Pliers worker team, he started working before the lunch break ended.
"Little beast, what's the use of working every day? It's not like the factory will give you a few more yuan."
Jia Zhangshi muttered softly, feeling that Chen Jianye's hard work was aimed at her.
Chen Jianye's diligence and willingness to work made her seem even lazier by comparison.
In modern terms, Jia Zhangshi was 'rolled' into it.
Chen Jianye didn't put down his tools until the off-duty bell rang.
He tidied up and left work.
Entering the Siheyuan (Courtyard), the first person Chen Jianye saw was Yan Fugui sitting at the entrance, basking in the sun.
"Third Master, how's your health?"
Chen Jianye pushed his cart over and asked.
"Hey, I'm not dead yet."
Yan Fugui's voice was still soft and weak, and he looked at Chen Jianye with a hint of resentment: "Jianye, you little brat, you've really put me through hell."
"Third Master, you can't say that. It wasn't me who forced you to sell the Jia's agreement to me."
Chen Jianye said very seriously.
He could help Yan Fugui, but he definitely couldn't take the blame for this.
Yan Fugui was detained by the Security Section for a day, which was ultimately due to his own greed.
Moreover, Chen Jianye didn't get it for free; he spent ten yuan.
In the time it took to bend down, Yan Fugui earned ten yuan from him.
Did he really think his money was easy to get?
"That's true, I don't mean to blame you."
"Thanks to your help, my wife and children were able to rescue me smoothly."
Yan Fugui quickly remedied the situation.
"We're all residents of the same Courtyard; I help you, you help me, we help each other."
"Third Master, I didn't know the Rolling Mill would be so ruthless. You really suffered."
Chen Jianye's attitude softened.
"It's my fault too; this incident really taught me a lesson."
"When you're a person, you can't always think about scheming. Scheming back and forth, you almost scheme yourself to death."
Yan Fugui sighed, looking very dejected.
"Third Master, your awareness has improved again."
Chen Jianye gave a thumbs up.
But he secretly sneered in his heart.
Yi Zhonghai can't change his idea of finding someone to support him in his old age.
Yan Fugui also can't change his notion of scheming against others.
Sha Zhu can't even change his impulse to fawn over Qin Huairu.
If the Siheyuan (Courtyard) drama didn't have these people stirring things up, what would be the point of watching it?
Oh, right, and Jia Zhangshi also can't change her personality of loving to take advantage of others.
People, after all,
It's normal to have character flaws, especially when living resources are very scarce. Chen Jianye can understand, but he won't agree with it.
"Improve what? It's good enough just to be alive."
"Your Third Aunt told me about you helping my family. I owe you a favor. If anything comes up in the future, just say the word."
Yan Fugui waved his hand.
"Alright, I definitely won't be polite with you."
Chen Jianye pushed his cart further inside.
The matter between him and the Yan Family was settled.
Perhaps Yan Fugui suspected that Chen Jianye had set him up, wondering why that black cloth bag just happened to fall at his doorstep.
But the matter was already in the past.
Chen Jianye spent ten yuan.
And he also helped the Yan Family connect with the Security Section Leader to get him out.
In terms of both emotion and reason, Yan Fugui had no reason to continue pestering him.
After Chen Jianye returned, Yi Zhonghai, Liu Haizhong, Sha Zhu, Xu Damao, and others also came back to the Courtyard.
Seeing Yan Fugui, they all stopped and chatted with him for a few words.
Upon learning that Yan Fugui was fine, they exchanged a few pleasantries, telling Yan Fugui to rest well, and then each went home.
After a while, Jia Zhangshi returned, swinging her arms.
The weather was hot now, and Jia Zhangshi was sweating profusely from walking back to the Siheyuan (Courtyard).
Already short-tempered, she felt even more irritable.
Upon entering and seeing Yan Fugui, Jia Zhangshi's anger flared up even more. She immediately ran to Yan Fugui and started cursing: "Yan Fugui, you old geezer!"
"Jia Family Sister-in-law, what are you doing?"
Yan Fugui felt a little guilty.
He had indeed done something to wrong the Jia.
"What am I doing? Don't play dumb about what you did."
"Chen Jianye took my Jia's agreement and went to the Security Section, causing the Security Section to cancel the preferential treatment for my Jia."
"The Security Section said that agreement flowed from your hands to Chen Jianye's hands!"
Jia Zhangshi yelled loudly.
"Jianye wanted to buy it, so of course I sold it to him. What's there to say?"
Yan Fugui was also furious.
He only earned ten yuan, and the Security Section gave him a hard time, almost costing him half his life.
He finally came back, and the other residents in the Courtyard greeted him, but Jia Zhangshi immediately started cursing him.
Didn't he have any dignity?
"You old geezer, you're really obsessed with money."
"Even if you wanted to sell it for money, couldn't you have sold it to me?"
Jia Zhangshi stomped her feet in anger.
"I sell it to you? Can you give me money?"
Yan Fugui gave a crooked smile.
His meaning seemed to be, 'Don't I know what kind of person you are?'
As the two spoke, Third Aunt and Yan Jiecheng, along with Yu Li, all came out of the house from the Yan Family.
This was only half of the Yan Family.
Not to mention Yan Jiecheng, Yan Jiekang, and Yan Jieti hadn't returned yet.
"Why wouldn't I give you money? Could I shortchange you even a cent?"
Jia Zhangshi howled.
"All your money was stolen, do you think I'm stupid? You're just talking nonsense."
"Even if you had money, you wouldn't spend it to buy it. Do you even believe what you're saying?"
Yan Fugui looked disdainful.
He was indeed in the wrong on this matter.
The more he was in the wrong, the less he could save face.
Jia Zhangshi had come to his door, so Yan Fugui directly tore off all pretense and fought back.
"You good-for-nothing Yan Lao Xi, you stinking old nine, I'll fight you!"
Jia Zhangshi was so angry that she was fuming. She stretched out her arms, like a crab waving its pincers, her five fingers spread slightly curved, ready to scratch Yan Fugui's face until it bloomed.
"What are you doing, Granny Jia!"
"Granny Jia, get lost!"
"If you dare to scratch my old man, I'll fight you!"
Yan Jiecheng, Yu Li, and Third Aunt all exclaimed, blocking Jia Zhangshi.
As a man, Yan Jiecheng was filled with a sense of mission to protect his family. In a burst of energy, he forcefully pushed Jia Zhangshi's shoulder.
Jia Zhangshi stumbled back several steps and sat down on the ground with a thud.
"Granny Jia, if you have something to say, say it properly. If you want to act wildly in my Yan Family, I'll be the first to disagree."
Yan Jiecheng's words were firm and resounding.
Although Jia Zhangshi was robust, she was still a woman.
When facing a man acting fiercely, Jia Zhangshi was no match.
"Oh, heavens, why is my life so bitter!"
"Dongxu, open your eyes and see, your mother is about to be bullied to death!"
"Lao Jia, why didn't you take me with you!"
Jia Zhangshi sat on the ground, raising her hands high, wailing and shouting to the heavens.
The residents of the Courtyard heard the noise and came out of their houses, running to the front Courtyard to watch the commotion.
