Chapter 24: Smart Rain

He Yuzhu walked home leisurely with Yu Shui on his back. Because of the knives in the backpack, Yu Shui felt very uncomfortable lying on his brother's back and kept pulling the backpack out.

In his previous life, He Yuzhu never saw his master again. After the reform and opening up, he heard from his fellow apprentices that after his master left, his master's wife took the children to sell the family property and returned to her hometown in Sichuan.

In his previous life, He Yuzhu felt guilty towards his master, but he also had some childish resentment towards his master's wife.

An apprentice!
In the master's house, isn't the master's wife still being ordered around like a servant?!
But in this life, as long as his master's wife doesn't set her sights on his own Yu Shui, He Yuzhu will think of her as a good master's wife.

This is the change in He Yuzhu’s mentality.

Because in this life, apart from the relationship with his master, he can't rely on anyone else.

This day was quite exciting for He Yuzhu.

Those people whom he wanted to protect in his previous life, just because he chose not to follow their arrangements, ended up showing their true colors one by one.

It's so ugly.

And in his previous life, he actually treated these people as his grandmother, his parents, and the people he cared about the most.

The rain was pulling at the backpack on her back. The backpack weighed nearly ten pounds and was hanging down. There was no way she could pull it up.

After pushing for a while, Yu Shui gave up and just moved its body to the other side as much as possible.

This must have made He Yuzhu uncomfortable. He Yuzhu slapped her on the butt lightly and said angrily, "Don't move."

Unexpectedly, the rain was not a worry-free person either, and it bit He Yuzhu's right ear with a "ah-wu".

Fortunately, Yu Shui knew the severity of the situation this time. Or maybe she simply disliked the dirtiness of He Yuzhu's ears, so she bit them lightly, causing He Yuzhu to feel a little pain, and then she let go.

He Yuzhu wanted to curse, but he heard the rain say in his ear: "Silly brother, do you want to keep me in your aunt's house?"

Hearing this, He Yuzhu no longer cared about Yu Shui calling him a silly brother, and quickly asked, "How did you know?"

Yu Shui said proudly: "I just know it."

Without waiting for He Yuzhu to ask, Yu Shui sighed like an adult and said in a condescending manner: "Mother Yi's family is not on good terms with our family. My brother will have to work to earn money in the future, and you are worried about me being alone at home..."

This was also a disguised explanation to He Yuzhu about how she guessed and why she wanted to foster her in the Wang family.

He Yuzhu was silent. He actually wanted to complain. How could he, who was so smart, be so obviously provoked and designed to be like him in his previous life?
But He Yuzhu didn't ask this question out loud, he had already thought of the answer.

It was because my sister was so smart that she saw through those people in the courtyard and her silly brother, and knew that she couldn't save him, so she could only choose to protect herself and choose to out of sight and out of mind.

Thinking of this, He Yuzhu couldn't help but become annoyed again.

How blind he must have been in his previous life to have believed such a bunch of people.

He Yuzhu told Yu Shui his thoughts, especially why he didn't mention asking his master's wife to help take care of her.

Now that he knew his sister was not that stupid, He Yuzhu no longer had to shoulder all the responsibilities like he did in his previous life.

The brother and sister chatted all the way and staggered back home. After washing up, they chose to rest.

He Yuzhu fell asleep as soon as he touched the bed. Today was too stimulating for him. Mentally and emotionally, He Yuzhu was overloaded today.

I was trying to plan my plans for tomorrow, but my brain just stopped working.

He Yuzhu did not sleep well that night. He didn't know what he dreamed about. He just felt pain all over his body and felt tired all over.

He Yuzhu opened his eyes in embarrassment, only to find that the rain was wrapped around him like an octopus. The point was not this, the point was that He Yuzhu found himself wet. No need to think, this was the rain classmate flooding Jinshan again.

He Yuzhu carefully pushed his sister aside. It was not Yu Shui's fault, but his own fault as he forgot to wake Yu Shui up to go to the bathroom yesterday.

Yu Shui was also shocked and sad the whole day. Yesterday, He Yuzhu was in a daze and even heard Yu Shui crying in her sleep.

He Yuzhu was tired, and she was tired too. It was normal for her to not be able to control her sphincter.

Fortunately, Yu Shui was sleeping on He Yuzhu's body, and most of his excrement was used to wash He Yuzhu's clothes.

This saved He Yuzhu the embarrassment of having to get up and wash the sheets.

He Yuzhu looked outside. The sky was still gray and only vaguely visible. It was probably still early.

He Yuzhu subconsciously looked at his hand and smiled bitterly. He was not worthy of a watch now.

Get up, open the stove damper, wipe your body with hot water, and wash your clothes.

After a while, people started to come into the yard.

He Yuzhu pretended nothing happened and greeted them, "Good morning, Aunt Gan... Hello, Aunt Wu,"

Everyone who was greeted by He Yuzhu had the same expression. They were surprised at first, then they looked up at the Jia family's door seal, and finally they nodded carefully to He Yuzhu and whispered, "Zhuzi, what are you busy with?"

Then, nothing happened again.

Even the usual casual chats between them disappeared completely because of He Yuzhu's presence. The laughter and loud voices disappeared completely.

Everyone was busy with their own work, as if no one knew each other.

This is not to say that everyone is collectively rejecting the He family now, but that these women have not yet figured out how to face He Yuzhu.

Everyone saw He Yuzhu's shrewdness, brutality, and cruelty yesterday.

It can be said that every household in this alley was discussing He Yuzhu's changes yesterday.

Of course there are people who feel no pain in their waists when standing still and say that He Yuzhu is too cruel.

But there were also some sober people who gave He Yuzhu a thumbs up and praised him as a man.

However, everyone has the same attitude towards Yi Zhonghai, that is, the couple looks like decent people, but their hearts are evil.

Of course, few people would say this openly, but in everyone's heart, the Yi family is considered to be one that should not be closely associated with.

He Yuzhu didn't care about everyone's reactions. As time went on, some people would stand on the He family's side and some on the other side. If they could interact with each other, they would interact with each other. If they couldn't, given what He Yuzhu said yesterday, it was estimated that no one would dare to bully them.

Just like yesterday when He Yuzhu knocked on the door, Yan Bugui came out wearing a coat, mumbling something. He Yuzhu stopped and said, "Teacher Yan, if you don't want to open the door for me, go to the street and tell them.
Tomorrow, I will dig a small door on the outer wall of our house.

But if someone in the yard loses something in the future, don’t blame it on our He family.”

Yan Bugui shut up.

There is a small angle between the main house and the ear room of the He family. According to the verbal statement at that time, that area belonged to the He family, including that section of the outer wall.

If He Yuzhu really dug a small door there facing the alley outside, the people in the courtyard would really be unable to say anything.
