The sun was high in the sky, and the sunset had dyed the sky red.

Two elongated figures were walking in the remote alley side by side.

"Fifth Sister-in-law, you kicked the door of my house. If I think of it now, you won't look for trouble with us, right?"

Hee Zijun's petite figure appeared especially frail, as if he could run away if the wind blew.

Yang Xinyu pulled his shoulder into her embrace, and said with a warm voice. "Why are you still calling me Fifth Sister-in-law, it's time to call me Big Sis."

"Ah …" "Sister!" Hee Zijun forced out these two words, and only felt his eyes moisten as he lowered his head and took a deep breath.

Yang Xinyu only thought that he was moved to death, and said, "Why are you crying? Are you not used to it? "If you're not used to it, it's fine if you don't change your mind."

Hee Zijun raised his head and felt his nose turn sour, "No, I … "I just miss my fifth brother."

He knew that it was a little inappropriate to mention fifth brother now.

However, he couldn't help but think of Fifth Bro. When he thought of how his final connection with Fifth Bro was severed after leaving his old residence, he felt extremely uncomfortable in his heart.

"I don't want to change my surname, I just want to change it to fifth brother's. If I change my surname, it would be equivalent to leaving five people alone in my old dwelling. He's so lonely …" At the end, his eyes filled with tears.

It's not like Yang Xinyu had never seen him cry, but this time, she looked extremely sad, "Who said you could change your surname? If you want to die and you like the surname She, then just give me the surname She! "

Hee Zijun said hesitantly, "But, if I'm still a Hee Family person, Father and Mother will definitely come back to look for trouble."

"Stupid Younger Brother, there are a lot of people under the heavens with the surname He. If your account is allocated to the old home, then that's another blessing. What reason do they have to find trouble with you?" Yang Xinyu said in a gentle voice.

"That's true! I forgot about that. " Hee Zijun took a deep breath, turning tears into smiles.

Yang Xinyu also laughed heartily, "After all that has happened today, Father will definitely give her a good thrashing. Last time, no one from the branch family gave vent to their anger this time! "

Hee Zijun brought up the pheasant that had half its feathers plucked out, and shook it a little, "It's just troubling Elder Sister Wang and her, five … "Sister, should we make some chicken soup and send it over to them?"

The real name of the Madame Wang was Wang Xiufen, and was about the same age as the Madame Liu.

Since Yang Xinyu was her Fifth Sister-in-law in name, she naturally addressed her as elder sister.

With his reminder, Yang Xinyu remembered, "Is Elder Sister Wang that BaoGang's mother? What sort of conflicts did she have with her mother? "

Hee Zijun thought for a while, then replied, "The Elder Sister Wang only has Zhao Baogang, a boy. He follows his father Zhao Wu, and likes to play around with blades and spears.

Yang Xinyu frowned, "Are you talking about and He Chunxi? They bullied you too? "

Hee Zijun nodded his head, then shook it, "There's also Ma Da Hu. Not only did he bully me, he also bullied He Dong Zhi a lot."

Speaking of He Dong Zhi, Hee Zijun looked at Yang Xinyu, thinking that she could remember.

But Yang Xinyu was at a loss when she heard it, "Who is He Dongzhi?"

The name sounded familiar to her, but she couldn't recall it.

"He Dongzhi is a girl from the second branch and also He Chunxi's sister. She's only two years younger than me."

Just as Hee Zijun finished speaking, he felt a headache coming on.

Second Branch Madame Lin, He Dahai who was sold and married at the age of fifteen by a trafficker. Her status was low to begin with, and because of her weakness, she was left at the mercy of others.

They were in the same boat as the original owner, so they had to take care of the original owner in private.

However, at a critical moment, he wouldn't side with the original owner for the sake of his own home. Most of the time, he only felt pity for the original owner, giving him something to eat after he was beaten up by Lady Zhou.

He Dong Zhi was born on the day of the winter solstice, and was Madame Lin's second child.

He Dahai had always wanted a man, but after hoping for four years, he gave birth to He Dongzhi. It wasn't just the people from Hee Family, even the Madame Lin didn't like this girl.

Because she was born a girl, other than being easily beaten by her husband in Hee Family, she was also looked down upon by other women in the four houses.

She was more inclined towards the more talkative, likable He Chunxi.

On the other hand, the original owner had given a lot of care to He Dong Zhi, so she was more attached to the original owner. If there was anything good to eat, she would often secretly pass it to the original owner.

As a result, He Chunxi often bullied and suppressed him.

Yang Xinyu thought, and came to a sudden realization.

As it turned out, the original owner was so fat, and he had another helper.

But this helper was not as eye-catching as Hee Zijun.

When she had the chance, she would definitely meet He Dongzhi. At the very least, she would return the favor to the original owner.

"I remember now, who's that Ma Da Hu?" Yang Xinyu asked again.

Hee Zijun explained, "Ma Da Hu was given by Third Sister-in-Law. Because his only son was spoiled by Third Sister-in-Law, he often bullied He Dong Zhi."

Wasn't the Third Branch the Madame Ma? How could she have forgotten?

As he walked, he had already reached the front door.

Yang Xinyu suddenly slapped her forehead, and said, "Younger Brother, you are right, we should send some chicken soup to Elder Sister Wang to thank her, is there anyone else in her family?"

"There's also Grandpa Zhao."

Hee Zijun replied as his eyes heated up, "Grandpa Zhao was a very good person, and he even secretly stuffed a bun into my mouth before."

"Alright, then let's do some extra work and send it over to Grandpa Zhao."

After Yang Xinyu finished speaking, she took the chicken with half of its feathers pulled and said, "Go and fetch a bucket of water from the river."

"Alright!" Hee Zijun immediately agreed and ran off.

Yang Xinyu tidied up the messy house, and just happened to be back.

"Sister, here you go." Hee Zijun held onto the barrel, looking breathless.

Yang Xinyu laughed, "Alright, Younger Brother, you go and rest at the side, leave it to me!"

She plucked the feathers off the chicken in one breath, cut open its stomach, and removed its internal organs.

The internal organs of a chicken could be eaten, and even chicken blood and intestines could be eaten if well handled.

However, it was almost dark and there was no time to clean up.

Yang Xinyu then threw her internal organs into the bucket as she prepared to make the chicken soup.

The chicken that Madame Hee-zhou plucked out was exactly the fat one, and it was even heavier than it looked. It had to be at least six kilograms.

She washed the chicken's belly and cut it in half, then put half of it in the pot.

The pot was filled with cold water, barely reaching the chicken block.

Yang Xinyu boiled the fire in cold water, removed the blood foam and immediately fished out a piece of chicken to wash.

She boiled a pot of water with bloody foam and couldn't use it, so she refilled the pot with water. After boiling the water, she put it in the chicken and the ginger, garlic and star anise.

Yang Xinyu did not forget about the leek in the wasteland. After all, Xiao Huo was going to stew slowly.

She might as well call Hee Zijun over, firstly, to scrape the leek in the wasteland, and secondly, to pick some leek.
