At noon, the news that Jia Zhangshi had been sentenced to three years in prison broke out completely. Everyone in the surrounding courtyard houses knew about it, and even people in more distant areas knew about it.
Sun Zheng'an had just returned from his classmate's house, and after arriving home, he and his siblings began to eat.
At the dinner table, after finishing two steamed buns and feeling slightly full, Sun Zheng'an slowed down his eating and began to recount what he had seen and heard at his classmate's house.
"Brother, you don't know! Our No. 95 Nanluoguxiang courtyard is quite famous, really famous!"
Seeing his younger brother explaining with great interest, Sun Zhengguo chimed in.
"Oh! Tell me, how did you become famous?"
"You might not believe it, but my classmate lives seven or eight streets away from our compound, yet his parents know that a woman named Jia Zhangshi came from our compound, and they even know that she was sentenced to three years in prison. Isn't that strange?"
"Pfft!"
Sun Zhengguo couldn't hold it in and burst out laughing, almost spitting out his food.
Those middle-aged women are truly amazing. In just a short while, they managed to spread the news so far. It's terrifying!
"Bro, watch out, you almost sprayed it on me."
Sun Zhenghong, standing to the side, said unhappily.
"Sorry, I couldn't help it. Zheng'an was exaggerating!"
Sun Zhengguo said with an apologetic expression.
"Is it exaggerated? No! I was in Xinjiekou this morning, believe it or not."
"Alright, let's eat first, and we'll talk about it after we finish eating!"
After Sun Zhengguo finished speaking, the group fell silent and began to focus on their meal.
After dinner, it was Sun Zheng'an's turn to wash the dishes. After he finished washing the dishes, he came running over again, winking and making faces.
"Hey bro, how about we go to Houhai Park this afternoon?"
"Why? You've been to Houhai Park countless times, haven't you gotten tired of it already?"
Sun Zhengguo asked, puzzled.
"Hehe! I made plans to go out with my classmates today. All three of them, siblings and friends, are going, so I'm planning to go with my siblings as well."
Seeing his younger brother's grinning face, Sun Zhengguo sensed that something was amiss.
"Tell me who's going? I'll consider it, otherwise I won't go."
"Brother, you've met him once before; he even came to the graduation banquet last time."
Hearing his younger brother say this, Sun Zhengguo felt embarrassed. He hadn't paid any attention to the classmates his brother had brought to the college entrance banquet last time. How would he know who they were?
But who is Son Jung-guk?
A college student, how could he be stumped by this question? He quickly came up with a solution.
"Are you talking about male or female classmates? I think I vaguely remember them."
"Hahaha……."
"Bro, you're killing me! Are you serious?"
"At the graduation banquet that day, you only had one male classmate, and my second brother only had one female classmate. Tell me, what's your impression of them?"
"That's right, bro, you're just kidding me! I didn't have any male classmates that day."
Seeing that his lie had been exposed by the brother and sister, Sun Zhengguo awkwardly scratched his head and said with a forced smile.
"We might have misremembered. Since they made the appointment, we'll go with you later."
"That's more like it. Let's head out in a bit. We agreed to meet at the park entrance at 1 p.m., so don't be late."
Seeing his younger brother's useless behavior, Sun Zhengguo said irritably.
"Do you really think you're going to go that far?"
"It's just going out for fun, it's not like it's a major moment in your life."
"Hehehe! I'll correct it next time."
Sun Zhengguo glanced at his grinning younger brother, shook his head, and prepared to go back to his room to lie down for a while. So he rolled up his sleeves and checked the time.
Alright! Let's not lie down anymore. It's already 12:30. If we don't leave soon, my brother will start nagging me again.
"Let's go! It's almost time. It's so hot outside. You really know how to make the date. Couldn't we go at 3 pm?"
"Hehehe! Lack of experience."
"Hey second brother, all you've been doing today is grinning like an idiot. I told you, you have to treat me to ice cream when we get to the park."
"Hehehe! Definitely, definitely."
The brother and sister looked at Sun Zheng'an with blank expressions. What else can you do besides "hehehehe"?
Sun Zhengguo was too lazy to talk to his younger brother anymore. He pushed out his bicycle and walked away, with the two siblings following behind.
After leaving the compound, the three siblings squeezed onto a bicycle and headed towards Houhai Park.
...
Under the shade of a tree at the entrance of Houhai Park, a young girl was peeking out and looking at something. After a moment, she showed a disappointed expression.
The girl appeared to be about sixteen or seventeen years old. She was pretty and wore a floral dress with two braids, which made her look even more radiant and charming.
"Sis, has your brother An arrived yet? It's so hot today! I hope he's not skipping the trip!"
The speaker was the girl's younger sister, who was a few years younger than her. Despite her young age, she was also quite beautiful. Behind her was a boy who was about ten years old, the girl's younger brother.
"Alright, alright, it's not time yet. We're just too early. Let's wait a bit longer."
The girl comforted her younger sister, believing that the person she was waiting for would definitely come.
Meanwhile, Sun Zhengguo and his two siblings had arrived at the park gate and were parking their bicycles.
After getting out of the car, Sun Zheng'an couldn't wait to look around.
Finally, under the shade of a tree not far away, I saw that familiar figure.
"Xiao Li, over here."
Sun Zheng'an waved and called out.
"Brother, I see Xiaoli over there in the shade of the tree. Let's go over there!"
Seeing his younger brother's excited expression, Sun Zhengguo had no choice but to follow behind.
The girl under the tree also saw Sun Zheng'an and excitedly spoke to her younger sister.
"Here he comes, here he comes! I'm warning you! Don't talk nonsense."
"snort!"
The younger sister next to her pouted and made a dissatisfied sound.
Sun Zhengguo and his group soon arrived under the shade of the tree. After the two sides met, Sun Zhengan quickly introduced them.
"Xiao Li, let me introduce you. This is my older brother, Sun Zhengguo, and this is my younger sister, Sun Zhenghong."
Xiao Li nodded and greeted him, and Sun Zhengguo nodded and greeted her in return.
"Brother, let me introduce you. This is my classmate Yu Li, this is her sister Yu Haitang, and this is her brother Yu Peng."
After hearing his younger brother's explanation, Sun Zhengguo was numb.
Can anyone tell me what's going on?
Xiao Li is actually Yu Li, Yan Bugui's daughter-in-law in the original drama. If the name alone cannot prove it, then what about Yu Haitang? It can't all be a coincidence, right?
Now that Yu Li is his younger brother's girlfriend, what will happen to Yan Jiecheng?
Too many questions and doubts swirled in Sun Zhengguo's mind.
Finally, Sun Zhengguo stopped thinking about it. Yu Li, now, might become his sister-in-law in the future, and then she would be one of his own.
What will happen to the Yan family? How will Yan Jiecheng find a wife?
Sun Zhengguo retorted, "What does this have to do with me!"
