Rebirth of Siheyuan starts in the 1980s

"Brother Cao, please go to bed early. Don't send me off. I'll just go back to the room by myself."

"Well, okay, let's go slowly without seeing you off. See you tomorrow."

After sending Qiao Yicheng out and watching him disappear into the corridor, Cao Zhiqiang closed the door again and returned to the room.

Well, I finally fooled him away.

This little guy really has a lot on his mind right now.

In fact, just for a moment, Cao Zhiqiang had the idea of ​​accepting Qiao Yicheng.

After all, in Cao Zhiqiang's opinion, Qiao Yicheng is actually quite good.

Although Cao Zhiqiang has not watched the entire TV series Qiao's Sons and Daughters, he has watched most of the content.

Compared with the love-filled courtyard full of animals, the drama "Children of the Qiao Family" actually has more warmth in it.

But whether it’s the Qingmansiheyuan or the children of the Qiao family, in fact, in Cao Zhiqiang’s opinion, the main theme is tragic, or in other words, both are full-fledged sadistic dramas.

If the real tragic protagonist in Qingman Siheyuan is He Yuzhu, then the most tragic protagonist in Qiao Family Siheyuan is Qiao Yicheng.

Let’s talk about the courtyard house first.

The ending of Siheyuan seems to be a happy ending, even Xu Damao returns, but in fact, the happy ending has foreshadowed the tragic ending of He Yuzhu.

The reason is very simple, that is, people who really care about and love He Yuzhu, He Yuzhu doesn't care at all, or dare not care.

On the contrary, the vampires who did not love He Yuzhu, but only used him as a meal ticket and a supporter to suck blood, all fell in love with He Yuzhu.

The happy reunion of the Siheyuan was actually based on He Yuzhu's kindness, Lou Xiao'e's financial resources, and Qin Huairu's skill.

These three are actually indispensable.

If there is any problem in any link, the warm courtyard will immediately turn into a Shura field.

Cao Zhiqiang has never read the so-called dark original work of Love in the Courtyard, but he can figure it out after thinking about it.

Once Qin Huairu dies, or Lou Xiao'e leaves the capital and returns to Xiangjiang with her son, what will be the outcome of He Yuzhu?

Can Qin Huairu's three children support He Yuzhu in his old age?

Haha, let alone providing for the elderly, I am afraid that He Yuzhu’s real estate and restaurants will be snatched away immediately.

This does not mean that biological children are necessarily good and non-biological children are necessarily bad. This is actually a matter of fact.

You are like Qin Huairu's three children. Each one is more selfish than the last. The only one who is a little bit reliable and has a kind heart is probably Xiaodang.

But Xiaodang is just relatively kind. She also has her own private messages, especially after she has her own family.

These people sucked a whole quilt of blood from He Yuzhu's body, and they have long taken it for granted.

But once He Yuzhu gets old and can no longer do the hard work and needs someone to raise him, Qin Huairu's three children will probably run as fast as rabbits. They will not be much better than the children of the third uncle's family, and may even be worse than others.

.

At the very least, the eldest son of the third uncle's family can really contribute money and efforts at critical times.

People in the courtyard are more shrewd than others and more selfish than others. How noble can children who grow up in that kind of environment be?

As for He Xiao, he has a good character, but he lacks a brain and always thinks too much of others. Therefore, if he faces Qin Huairu's three children, he is definitely no match for him. There is a high probability that he will choose to run away, and it is difficult to deal with them.

He Yuzhu took him back to take care of him.

But the most important thing is that I am afraid that even if He Xiao takes He Yuzhu back to raise him, He Yuzhu will not go because he cannot lose his face.

You know, He Yuzhu devoted almost all his life to Qin Huairu and her three children, and basically didn't care about his own children.

In the end, if He Yuzhu's three favorite children do not support him, but want to take care of his biological son who he has not much affection for, with He Yuzhu's self-esteem, I am afraid he would rather die than be embarrassed.

Therefore, "Love in the Courtyard" came to an abrupt end in the 1990s because He Yuzhu could still move around and continue to be affectionate at that time.

But once He Yuzhu gets old and can no longer do the hard work, and Qin Huairu's three children all get married and start a business, the ending will definitely be very bad.

In fact, the tragedy of Qingman Siheyuan, to put it bluntly, is that it was entrusted to a wrong person!

The tragedy of He Yuzhu's life actually runs through these four words: "He is not a human being."

And his ending will also have a happy tragic ending because of these four words.

Of course, that's on the basis that I don't interfere at all.

As for Qiao Yicheng, his tragedy was not that he was entrusted to someone else, but that he had too much family ties.

As a human being, of course, you cannot live without family ties, but if you place too much emphasis on family ties, more than your own family, then you are putting the cart before the horse.

There is no doubt that Qiao Yicheng lives in an unfortunate native family.

In this family, his mother died young, his father was unreliable, and there were a group of chattering and ignorant younger brothers and sisters, forcing Qiao Yicheng to take over his father's blame early and shoulder the responsibility of supporting the family.

In other words, Qiao Yicheng is the eldest brother in name, but his actions have long gone beyond the scope of an ordinary eldest brother and reached the scope of a father.

Throughout Qiao Yicheng's life, although he had three relationships, in the end he became seriously ill and did not even have a child of his own. Instead, he did a good job raising his younger siblings.

But in fact, Qiao Yicheng had a chance to have children, but because Qiao Yicheng was too kind, too tolerant, and too considerate of others, especially his younger brothers and sisters, he spent his whole life caring for his younger brothers and sisters.

Living like that scumbag, he almost doesn't have a life of his own, and he doesn't dare to pursue the life he longs for.

Qiao Yicheng's mother-in-law character wouldn't be much better even if he was given the cheating Xiang Nanfang in the end.

So, will the younger brothers and sisters of the Qiao family who are cared for and disciplined by Qiao Yicheng really be happy? Not necessarily.

In fact, everyone has his own life and has his own things to bear.

If it weren't for Qiao Yicheng, his younger brothers and sisters would have had no backers and support, and without Qiao Yin's teaching and discipline, I'm afraid they would have had a different life long ago.

Without Qiao Yicheng's various controls, the lives of Qiao Yicheng's younger brothers and sisters would not be worse, and maybe they would be happier.

Of course, if it had nothing to do with him, Cao Zhiqiang would not bother to care about the bad things in their family.

But it happened that the daughter of the Qiao family already had a relationship with him.

At the very least, Qiao Sanli has accidentally become Cao Lili, her adopted sister, and Qiao Simei will soon become Chen Jiabang's adopted daughter, and will also be her adopted sister.

In the previous period of getting along, Cao Zhiqiang already had an emotional bond with Cao Lili and Qiao Simei, so Cao Zhiqiang would not allow anything to happen to these two sisters.

Qiao Yicheng's biggest characteristic is that he likes to meddle in other people's business, especially those of his younger brothers and sisters.

If Qiao Yicheng is also brought to the capital and made a member of their family, then Cao Zhiqiang will become a complete outsider and the culprit at the head of the car.

By then, wouldn't Cao Zhiqiang be the second best to He Yuzhu?

Damn, Cao Zhiqiang is fond of Cao Lili and Qiao Si just because they are cute and good-looking, and they feel good together. It feels like he had a ragdoll cat in his previous life.

The reason why Cao Zhiqiang treats Cao Lili and Qiao Si well is because Cao Zhiqiang personally likes to treat them well and has developed feelings for them. This is actually the same as raising pets.

Otherwise, how could Cao Zhiqiang tolerate Qiao Simei's time and again acting coquettishly and looking for trouble?

Do you really think Cao Zhiqiang is a fool and a good guy?

But Qiao Yicheng is a teenager who is about to turn eighteen. Even though he is pretty good-looking, Cao Zhiqiang is not a glass person and he has no interest in beautiful men.

Therefore, Cao Zhiqiang instinctively resisted Qiao Yicheng and did not like to have Qiao Yicheng with him.

To put it bluntly, without Qiao Yicheng, Cao Lili and Qiao Simei would all have to rely entirely on him, Brother Cao.

But once Qiao Yicheng passes away, with the constant blood relationship between them and Qiao Yicheng's brotherly character, I'm afraid it won't be long before I and Qiao Yicheng have to deal with Cao Lili and Qiao Simei.

Conflict, quarrel.

If nothing else, let’s just say that Cao Zhiqiang’s behavior of pampering Cao Lili and Qiao Simei is something I’m afraid Qiao Yicheng will not tolerate.

But Cao Zhiqiang likes it.

Buying things for Cao Lili and Qiao Simei, and then seeing them jumping for joy, is very healing, you know?

This is similar to how Cao Zhiqiang prepared all kinds of expensive cat food and canned cat food for his own cats in his previous life, and bought all kinds of cat toys to play with.

Others may see it as silly and boring, and a waste of money, but Cao Zhiqiang just enjoys it, no matter what others say.

Although it is somewhat inappropriate to compare Cao Lili and Qiao Simei to raising cats, in fact, in essence, isn't that the case?

Raising Cao Lili and Qiao Simei makes Cao Zhiqiang feel very happy and healed, and that's it.

Anyway, the money spent on Cao Lili and Qiao Simei was just a drop in the bucket in Cao Zhiqiang's opinion and was not a big deal at all.

But if Cao Zhiqiang is enjoying spending money, and suddenly someone comes out to criticize or even stop him, then Cao Zhiqiang will be very unhappy.

Obviously, Qiao Yicheng is the kind of person who makes Cao Zhiqiang very unhappy.

Of course, this is from a bad side.

On the bright side, taking away Qiao Simei and leaving Qiao Yicheng will not damage Qiao Yicheng's growth trajectory too much at this time.

In this case, if there are no exceptions, Qiao Yicheng will still be admitted to college here, and then go to college safely.

Without the burden of her two younger sisters, and the fact that Cao Lili will definitely secretly send money to subsidize Qiao Yicheng in the future, Qiao Yicheng's life will be much easier.

At least, he no longer has to worry about the lives of his two sisters all day long.

Because Cao Zhiqiang already has to worry about the lives of those two sisters.

In this way, with two people missing, especially Qiao Simei, Qiao Yicheng's future life should be smoother.

Maybe, Qiao Yicheng will be able to gain a different and unsatisfied life.

Also, Qiao Yicheng is also considered a talent.

If Cao Zhiqiang's business expands in the future, it won't prevent him from bringing Qiao Yicheng into the branch here, and then slowly controlling his influence.

Anyway, Qiao Yi is a good adult and can help, but he must not be brought with him.

Otherwise, Qiao Yicheng's bad luck will be contagious.

I can bear the life of Cao Lili and Qiao Simei, but Qiao Yicheng's bad luck is too strong, so I really can't thank you enough.

"Don't blame me, Qiao Yicheng. It's because my abilities are limited and I don't want to bear too much responsibility. After all, you are not a beauty."

"You should continue to live in Nanjing, this is your home court!"

"As for your two sisters, leave them to me and don't worry about them."

"In this case, you might live a few more years, and you might even have a child of your own."

After muttering these words to himself, Cao Zhiqiang went directly to bed and didn't think about it anymore.

Early the next morning, Chen Jiabang and his wife met Qiao Zuwang's family again, who had sobered up.

After having breakfast together in the hotel, a group of people left the hotel and sent Qiao Zuwang back to Qiao's house.

After that, everyone divided into two groups and acted separately.

As for Chen Jiabang and his wife, they went with Qiao Zuwang to go through their respective adoption procedures, which mainly involved going to the street to issue certificates and so on.

This matter is not difficult. After all, both parties are willing, and Chen Jiabang and his wife fully meet the adoption conditions, so it only requires a formality.

As for Qiao Yicheng, Qiao Erqiang, Cao Lili and Qiao Simei, they brought their cousin Qi Weimin and their younger brother Qiao Qiqi to go shopping and eating around Nanjing with Cao Zhiqiang.

To put it bluntly, it’s just eating, drinking and having fun.

Although the city of Nanjing during this period had not yet undergone any major construction, Cao Zhiqiang felt that it was actually better than the capital in terms of scenic spots.

Although Beijing is the capital at this time, when it comes to living experience, it is definitely not comparable to Nanjing.

If nothing else, the sandstorms that always come to the capital in March and April are quite uncomfortable.

Moreover, because Beijing has a large number of heavy industries and no large-scale pollution control, the air quality at this time is not good, and the sky is rarely blue.

On the other hand, here in Nanjing, due to various factors such as climate, dimensions, topography, and the fact that heavy industry is far inferior to that of the capital, there are still many blue skies and white clouds.

Especially in Nanjing at the end of April, it was quite comfortable.

It's not the peak tourist season yet, and Chinese people don't have much idea about traveling at this time, so Cao Zhiqiang took a group of children to travel to some scenic spots. It was quite pleasant and there were no crowds at all.

This will be left to future generations. If you travel to Nanjing's scenic spots during your vacation, you will probably only see heads one by one.

Confucius Temple, Yuhuatai, and Xuanwu Lake are all on Cao Zhiqiang’s travel list.

However, after visiting those tourist attractions, I discovered that Qiao Yicheng and Cao Lili, who were born and raised in Nanjing, actually knew less about the local scenic spots than he did, and it was even their first time to visit many places.

This is not to say that they don't know those scenic spots, but for children like Qiao Yicheng, these tourist attractions are not attractive at all, and they don't like to come all the way to see a bunch of broken city walls.

Rather than seeing scenic spots, these children prefer to taste various delicacies.

For example, glutinous rice and lotus root porridge, duck blood vermicelli soup, steamed cakes, tofu dumplings, beef pot stickers, Jinling soup dumplings, etc.

These local snacks are the most popular among these children.

Of course, at this time, Cao Zhiqiang not only tasted these snacks, but also devoured some local delicacies, the so-called Jinling cuisine.

Such as Yuhua anchovy shrimp, egg siomai, beauty liver, squirrel mandarin fish, golden fish maw, stewed raw meat, double-flavored gourd duck, young handsome jar meat, etc., etc., we have tried them all.

Not to mention, at least the raw materials for these dishes prepared by the chefs of this period were truly original and not farmed.

As for the taste, I can only say it's good, but it doesn't feel as good as what I had in my previous life.

If you think about it carefully, most of the times when Cao Zhiqiang lived in his previous life were in the 21st century.

At that time, the varieties of various food ingredients in China had already changed, and the evolution of various seasonings was also quite obvious.

The most obvious thing is that the overall umami taste of later generations has been improved by several levels.

Therefore, when comparing the same dish in the 21st century with the one in the 1980s, even if the cooking method is the same and the chef's level is the same, the gap will still be huge due to different ingredients and different seasonings.

From this point of view, when it comes to taste, the level of the chef may not be the main factor. The key lies in the ingredients themselves and the seasonings.

Just like Cao Zhiqiang, his knife skills are already superb. He can cut tofu into flowers and potatoes into cicada wings, but so what?

Because of his lack of experience in flavor matching, the dishes he cooked were still not as good as those of real chefs, not even He Yuzhu.

In addition, after coming to Nanjing, he found that there are great chefs everywhere, and He Yuzhu's cooking skills are not the best.

At least when it comes to making fish, several master chefs in Nanjing are better than He Yuzhu.

In short, after staying in Nanjing for three full days, Cao Zhiqiang and his party said goodbye to Qiao Zuwang's family, and then took Cao Lili and Qiao Simei with them and returned to the capital.

Yes, at this time, Qiao Simei has been officially adopted by Chen Jiabang, and is now a fully adopted daughter of the Chen family.

After returning to the capital, they only need to register and go through the formalities, and Qiao Simei can settle in Chen Jiabang's household registration.

This also means that from now on, Qiao Simei can go to school in the capital in an upright manner as a Beijing native.

It’s not easy!
