Chapter 134 Complaining Loudly to Grandma Chen
When she arrived at Yu Li's door, Yan Jie Di stopped. She hesitated for a moment, then gently rang the doorbell. After a moment, the door was opened, and Yu Li looked at Yan Jie Di standing outside the door in surprise.
"Jie Di, why are you here? It's so late." Yu Li asked with a hint of worry in her eyes.
"I want... I want to talk to you." Yan Jiedi said softly, her eyes revealing helplessness and confusion.
Seeing this, Yu Li immediately invited Yan Jie Di into the house. The living room was filled with a faint scent of tea, and the warm yellow light reflected on the wall, giving people a peaceful and warm feeling. The two sat on the sofa. Yan Jie Di was silent for a while, and finally spoke:
"He Yuliang and I had a conflict. Our relationship was becoming increasingly difficult to maintain, and I felt like I was about to collapse."
Yu Li gently patted Yan Jiedi's hand, signaling her not to worry too much. "Jiedi, don't be too sad. There will always be some setbacks and tribulations in life, but you have to believe that everything will be fine."
Yan Jie Di nodded, but still couldn't let it go. The conflict in her heart kept her awake and she was troubled by it all night.
The next morning, Yan Jiedi decided to talk to an old friend. She came to a small teahouse near the river, hoping to find some comfort and support.
The teahouse was filled with the fresh aroma of tea, and the sunlight from the window poured in, adding a touch of brightness and vitality to the entire space. Yan Jiedi ordered a pot of Longjing tea and quietly waited for her old friend to arrive.
After a while, a familiar figure entered the teahouse and caught Yan Jiedi's attention. It was an old man in simple clothes, with a kind face and eyes that revealed wisdom and tenacity.
"Old friend, long time no see." Yan Jiedi stood up with a smile to greet him.
"Jie Di, why are you here?" the old man asked puzzledly.
"I have something to discuss with you." Yan Jiedi sat down and poured out all her troubles to her old friend.
The old man listened quietly, without interrupting her, and just stared at her with a pair of loving eyes. After Yan Jiedi finished speaking, the old man sighed deeply, and then said:
"Jie Di, life is like a river. We will always encounter some rapids and obstacles. But as long as we keep moving forward and believe in ourselves, we will be able to overcome all difficulties. You must remember that you are not fighting alone."
There are five families in the courtyard. Although they have close relationships with each other, they often have interesting disputes over trivial matters.
First, let's talk about He Yuliang's family. His parents are intellectuals who work in education. There are all kinds of flowers and plants in their yard, and birds can be heard singing every morning. When He Yuliang was a child, he liked to play with the children in the neighborhood in the yard, and often secretly picked some flowers to make wreaths for his friends.
The other family in the courtyard is the Wang family, the inheritors of a blacksmith shop. Uncle Wang has superb skills, and neighbors often come to ask for advice on repairing their home appliances. But once, He Yuliang played a naughty trick and secretly hid Uncle Wang's hammer, which made Uncle Wang very anxious, but in the end he found out that it was He Yuliang's prank.
The other family is the Chen family. They are small vendors who run a small grocery store. Grandma Chen is always smiling and kind to others. But once, she bought a batch of new goods, but they were found to be counterfeit and inferior products, which caused a small dispute. But in the end, they reconciled, and everyone understood that Grandma Chen was cheated.
The other family is the Liu family. They were born as farmers and moved to the city to make a living. Uncle Liu is a carpenter with superb skills, and is often praised by everyone. But Uncle Liu has a quirk, which is that he likes to collect all kinds of wood and pile them up into a small mountain, which makes Aunt Liu often complain about him.
The last family is the Zhang family. They are retired cadres with a good life. Grandpa Zhang is a calligraphy lover. His study is full of ancient books and paintings. Every time you go in, you feel immersed in the long river of history. However, one time, Grandpa Zhang mischievously put a writing brush in the yard to bask in the sun, and it was taken away by He Yuliang's dog, triggering a funny chase scene.
In that courtyard full of vitality, a small family drama quietly unfolds in He Yuliang's family.
The morning sun cast mottled shadows through the leaves in the yard. He Yuliang had just woken up from his dream and was ready to get up and start a new day. He walked slowly across the yard and onto the balcony. He looked up and saw Grandma Chen from the Chen family across the street picking out new goods. He couldn't help but feel a little curious.
"Mom, I'm going to see if Grandma Chen has any good things at her house." He Yuliang said to his mother.
"Okay, go ahead, but don't delay." He Yuliang's mother smiled gently and nodded.
He Yuliang walked quickly to the Chen family's grocery store and found that Grandma Chen was busy placing some newly arrived goods. He rolled his eyes curiously and found a sweater.
"Wow, this sweater is so beautiful!" He Yuliang reached out to touch it, but was stopped by Grandma Chen.
"Xiaoyu, these are new arrivals, don't get them dirty." Grandma Chen reminded gently.
"Okay, okay, I got it." He Yuliang nodded with a smile, then turned and left the grocery store.
When he returned home, He Yuliang saw his mother busy making breakfast in the kitchen, so he walked over.
"Mom, I saw a super beautiful sweater at Grandma Chen's house, I like it so much!" He Yuliang said eagerly.
"Then go buy it. You have pocket money." The mother answered while flipping the vegetables in the pot.
He Yuliang suddenly felt helpless. He thought about it and decided to ask his father for some pocket money.
So He Yuliang came to the study and saw his father who was sorting books.
"Dad, I want to buy a sweater. Can you give me some pocket money?" He Yuliang turned his head with a hint of expectation on his lips.
Dad stopped what he was doing, looked at He Yuliang, thought for a while, and finally nodded.
"Okay, I'll give you some pocket money, but remember to use it economically." Dad took out his wallet, took out a few bills and handed them to He Yuliang.
He Yuliang happily took the money, turned around and ran out of the study, happily preparing to buy the sweater.
However, just as He Yuliang excitedly walked to the door of Chen's grocery store, he heard a roar.
"This is my sweater. It's mine whether I wear it or not!"
He Yuliang was startled and looked in the direction of the voice. He saw Chen's youngest daughter, Yan Jiedi, standing angrily at the door of the grocery store, holding a sweater in her hand, complaining loudly to Grandma Chen.
