Chapter 1: Traveling Through the Courtyard of Love

(Brain Storage)

——

December 1952, a severe winter.

Forty-nine cities.

In Nanluoguxiang, there was a strong wind and heavy snow. The cold wind made the windows in the alley whistle, making a harsh sound.

Liu Xiaojun was lying on the hard bed with a dizzy head when he heard a sound outside the door.

"Silly Zhu, why do you keep going to Widow Liu's house? Are you attracted to Widow Liu?"

"Xu Damaoer, if you can't speak, just shut your mouth. Believe it or not, I'll beat you up."

Silly pillar?

Xu Damao?

Why does this name sound so familiar?

A large amount of memory fragments entered Liu Xiaojun's brain, and the memories began to merge rapidly.

It turned out that he had traveled to the TV series "Birds in the Courtyard".

Uncle Yi Zhonghai, the moral master, likes to stand on the moral high ground and point fingers.

The second uncle Liu Haizhong likes to act like a leader, taking chicken feathers as a token of authority.

The third uncle, Yan Bugui, was stingy and had been scheming all his life.

Xu Damao did all kinds of bad things.

Qin Huairu, who started from scratch, almost caused Sha Zhu to become extinct.

There is also Jia Zhang, the compound's number one necromancy expert.

After her son died, Jia Zhang often cried out, "Dongxu, if you are still alive, please come back and see us, an orphan and a widow!"

They always said that someone in the compound bullied them, an orphan and a widow.

That level of proficiency is even better than that of a professional shaman.

However, it is now 1952, and Jia Zhang's son Jia Dongxu is still alive and has just married Qin Huairu.

Qin Huairu's brother got married recently, and Qin Huairu went back to the countryside to help her brother with the wedding banquet, so she was not in the courtyard.

Sha Zhu was only 18 years old. His father had been running away with the young widow for two years, but at least he arranged for Sha Zhu to work as a kitchen helper in a steel mill.

Sha Zhu's salary was decent, and he could often bring back lunch boxes from the steel mill kitchen.

Therefore, life at home is good.

He is Yi Zhonghai's biological son.

Yi Zhonghai is very concerned about having children. After all, children can provide for Yi Zhonghai in his old age.

But Yi Zhonghai despised himself because he had a congenital heart disease. It would be expensive to take care of him and he might die before Yi Zhonghai, so there was no way he could provide for him in his old age.

So when he was born, Yi Zhonghai hid it from his wife Xiu Ju and abandoned him on a snowy day.

To the outside world, Yi Zhonghai told the public that the child had died.

In the courtyard, there is a family that has not been mentioned on TV, and that is Liu Huizhen's family.

Liu Huizhen's husband is a soldier. Soldiers have food supplies, so the family can make ends meet.

Liu Huizhen happened to see herself being left in the snow by Yi Zhonghai, frozen purple.

It just so happened that Liu Huizhen was a soft-hearted person and couldn't bear to see the child die in front of her.

She took me home and raised me with good food and drink for sixteen years.

Yi Zhonghai knew this very well and had always known that he was his biological son, but he had been sick all the time and looked like he would not live long.

Yi Zhonghai saw no hope of retirement, so he gave up.

Afterwards, Yi Zhonghai accepted Jia Zhang's son Jia Dongxu as his apprentice, planning to let Jia Dongxu take care of him in his old age.

Taking in apprentices and letting them support you in your old age was a normal thing that happened in the 1950s.

In this day and age, teaching your apprentice will starve you to death.

When a master takes an apprentice, it is equivalent to recognizing the apprentice as half a son.

It is not excessive for a son to support his father in his old age.

Since there was someone to take care of him in his old age, there was no need to have a son. From then on, Yi Zhonghai completely gave up the idea of ​​recognizing Liu Xiaojun.

After Liu Xiaojun arrived at Liu Huizhen's house, his life went smoothly.

Unfortunately, the good times did not last long, and Liu Huizhen's man disappeared on the battlefield.

Since then, food supplies have also been cut off.

Everyone also thought that Liu Huizhen's husband died and Liu Huizhen became a widow.

It was at that time that Liu Huizhen found out that she had been pregnant for several months.

Later, she gave birth to her biological daughter Tangtang.

Then, Liu Xiaojun and Liu Huizhen, mother and daughter, depended on each other for survival.

Liu Xiaojun has a congenital heart disease and cannot do any heavy work.

He couldn't go out to work to earn food, and his sister Tangtang was still young.

Therefore, the burden of the family's life fell entirely on the adoptive mother Liu Huizhen.

After the man disappeared, there was no food supply for him. Liu Huizhen herself came from the countryside, and there was no food ration for people from the countryside, so she had to rely on herself for everything.

Liu Huizhen has no stable job or source of income, and relies on going out and taking odd jobs to make a living every day.

All the money earned is paid in cash.

Only after paying the money can you exchange it for food.

If you are unlucky and don’t get any work, you won’t make any money and your whole family will go hungry.

It has been snowing heavily these days, so no one wants to go out and there are few people looking for jobs outside.

Liu Huizhen hasn't received any work for several days, and her family has long been unable to make ends meet.

The original body suddenly fell ill at this time and was so hungry that he couldn't get out of bed. He was about to die.

Liu Huizhen was so anxious when she saw this!

There was no other way, so she thought of borrowing some food from other families in the courtyard.

I asked for it from everyone in the courtyard, but no one was willing to lend it to me.

Liu Huizhen saw with her own eyes that Yi Zhonghai had abandoned Liu Xiaojun, and she knew that Liu Xiaojun was Yi Zhonghai's biological son.

Liu Xiaojun was about to starve to death in bed. If Yi Zhonghai knew about this, he would definitely not stand by and watch him die.

So she took the initiative to go to Yi Zhonghai to borrow food, but was rejected by Yi Zhonghai.
