"Hey, hello, Director Wei? This is Jia Huanhua. I really have something urgent to ask you this time!" The phone call finally came through. Jia Huanhua's hands shook even more, and his voice trembled: "Something happened on the construction site. Liu Zhu's hand was run over by the machine!" At this time, Liu Zhu held his right wrist with his left hand and stamped his feet to call his mother. Jia Huanhua glanced at Liu Zhu and cursed: "It's not like his head has fallen off. Don't step on the tail. I'm calling Director Wei for you!" Director Wei's voice on the phone also became anxious: "What happened? Tell me clearly!" "Two of his fingers were crushed off and he is still jumping around on the ground!" Jia Huanhua wiped the sweat from his head and looked at Liu Zhu who kept stamping his feet. "Okay! Okay! We'll go right away. You wait in the emergency room!"

The outer loin of the lamb turned purple after being braised, and a layer of oil oozed out from the inside, making it very slippery. Ma Anhui used chopsticks to pick it up once, and then again, and finally caught it the third time. He was afraid that the outer waist of the sheep would slip off again, so he stretched his neck forward and jerked his chopsticks upward before sucking it into his mouth. Ma Zhenzhen chewed fiercely a few times, lifted the beer bottle with his left hand, and said inarticulately, "Brother Dazui, let's hit another one!" At this time, Zhao Dazui's right arm holding the beer suddenly stopped in the air. Ma Zhenzheng paused for a moment, then smiled and said, "No, Brother Jincai!" Zhao Dazui's right arm holding the beer still stayed in the air, motionless.

Yaodu City is located in the Central Plains. In chaos and danger, it is a place where heroes compete for the throne, and in Shengping, it is a place where people converge. Department stores and chariots come, thousands of cannons are flown around, the products of the five directions are gathered together unexpectedly, and the needs of the four seas are obtained in Litan. It is the capital city of Kyushu. It was precisely because of this geographical advantage and the reputation of the rich Central Plains that the Japanese army that invaded China invaded this city in May 1938. The national troops stationed at that time abandoned the city and fled southward without firing a few shots. But people of all colors here deal with the enemy in different ways. Yu once visited the people all over the country and recorded the touching stories of the heroes and heroines.

It is also said that Yun Lan'er was the adopted daughter of her mother, but this cannot be verified.

On the third day of his birthday, Yang Detai finally couldn't stand it anymore and lay down on the bed. He never got up since then, but kept talking about his only son Yang Xiuyun. The day before Yang Xiuyun and his sisters Zi Shao and Hong Shao arrived at Qianlou, Yang Detai, who was exhausted both mentally and physically, died. After Yang Detai's funeral, the family property will naturally be divided. This is the inevitable result for a family like Yang Detai at this time. However, when dividing the family property, there is no swordsmanship and a life-and-death fight. The real estate was divided equally between Yang Detai's six daughters. The ninety-nine-room courtyard in Qianlou was inherited by Yang Xiuyun, and everyone in the Yang family was allowed to live there. Yang Xiuyun finally went to Taiwan with her eldest brother-in-law Li Maotian and eldest sister Zi Shao, and there is still no news about her. Although the ninety-nine large houses are there, there is no one in Yang Detai's family.
