Siheyuan, don't mess with me

"Let's go. It's getting late. Let's go home and have dinner!" Liu Haizhong took Liu Guangqi home!

After washing up, the father and son sat at the dining table waiting for the second aunt to serve the meal. "You were right to pull my clothes just now. I almost spoke too quickly!" Liu Haizhong said in annoyance.

"Dad, you are too honest! You know Yan Bugui is a man who will not do anything without profit. It must be bad news for him to inquire about Yan Jiecheng today!"

Liu Guangqi explained that they all knew about Yan Jiecheng's affairs. As young people, they must be on Yan Jiecheng's side. Yan Jiecheng was badly cheated by Yan Bugui during this recruitment! To put it bluntly, his bright future was ruined!

"That's right! Yan Laokou will definitely not do anything that is not beneficial!" Liu Haizhong has been with Yan Bugui for many years and knows him very well!

"He must have no good intentions when he goes to Yan Jiecheng. He just wants money. Didn't Yan Jiecheng say that he promised to give him ten yuan a month? I guess Yan Bugui must want money when he goes to Yan Jiecheng!" Liu Guangqi analyzed.

"Should we tell Yan Jiecheng tomorrow?" Liu Haizhong asked.

"Of course we have to tell him! If Yan Jiecheng wants to go back and give the money, then he can go home and have a look. If he doesn't want to, we can just say we don't know and we didn't find him. This will also be considered as helping Yan Jiecheng. This old man Yan doesn't think it's enough to cheat Yan Jiecheng. Yan Jiecheng is in such a difficult situation, and he still wants money! How much money does Yan Jiecheng make a month? I really don't want him to have an easy life!" Liu Guangqi said angrily.

"Okay, let's eat! This Yan Laokou is obsessed with money and doesn't care about his relatives!" The second aunt brought the dishes over and continued,

"Okay, let's eat. It's broad daylight. Bring us some wine!" Liu Haizhong ended the topic. Eating is the most important thing!

"Dad, Shazhu's baby was born today!"

"Oh!"

"Mom, what did you give birth to?"

"Look at you, kid. You can't speak at all. What do you mean you gave birth to a thing? Of course it's a child. What else can it be?" The second aunt scolded Liu Guangtian in a bad mood. Liu Guangtian shrank his neck and dared not to speak anymore. He buried his head in eating. He could already feel the sharp eyes through his bangs!

"Mom, is it a boy or a girl?" We have to talk about family status and Liu Guangqi.

"A boy, a big fat boy weighing 15 pounds!"

"She's so fat, after all she comes from a family of chefs. Many families can't even get enough food now! The baby in her belly has grown so big, how many good things does it take to feed her!" Liu Haizhong sighed. This is the advantage of being a chef. No matter how poor a chef is, he will never starve, and he can fill his stomach by stealing food!

"Being too fat is not good, it will be painful when giving birth! Fortunately, we went to the hospital, otherwise Yu Li would have suffered too!" The second aunt is an experienced person, and she looks at the problem from a different perspective!

"But the child was born fat, which proves that his body is well developed. He might grow up to be a big boy in the future!" Liu Guangqi continued.

"Shazhu is not tall, but Yu Li looks quite tall. She can really do it!" The second aunt also felt the same way.

As they were talking, there was a knock on the door, "Second uncle, second aunt!"

"Pillars!"

"Second Aunt, the baby has just been born. I'm giving you some red eggs to share the good news!" He Yuzhu took out two red eggs from the basket and handed them to Second Aunt.

"Congratulations, Zhuzi!" Liu Haizhong walked to the door without any hesitation, and Liu Guangqi followed behind him.

"Brother Zhuzi, congratulations on becoming a father!"

"Thank you, thank you, Guangqi, you have worked hard. Now your job is stable. The next step is to get married!" He Yuzhu couldn't stop smiling that day. He was so happy!

The eggs were sent by Wang Meihua, a whole basket of them. He Daqing didn't hesitate and dyed them at home. Not only would they be used to announce the good news to his in-laws, but he would also send two to each household in the courtyard to announce the good news!

In difficult times, we couldn't invite guests. Although we could get the ingredients, it would be too ostentatious. In the afternoon, He Daqing and his son discussed it at home and decided not to have a wedding banquet. Instead, we would just have a meal together when the in-laws came over when the baby was one month old!

There are people who hope you have a good life, there are definitely people who hope you don’t live a satisfactory life, and there are people who are jealous of you, needless to say, so you still have to remain cautious!

"Uncle, Aunt, sorry to bother you while you're eating. I'm going to the next restaurant!"

"Go!"

"Dad, we should hurry up and rent a house on the street!" The second aunt was also very anxious when she saw Sha Zhu had a child.

"I can't do it these two days. The training has reached a critical moment and I can't leave. I will take a leave next week and go to the street to handle the matter!" Liu Haizhong hesitated for a moment and said in embarrassment.

"By the way, Guangqi, have you discussed this with your partner?"

"Dad, I told Wang Fang that she still wants to live in each family for a while. She is the only one in their family, and she really can't bear to leave!"

"Okay then! Get married first, live here for a while, and then go back to live for a while!" Liu Haizhong also gave in. He had no choice but to agree. Liu Guangqi also said privately that he would not marry anyone else. At worst, the two of them would not go to anyone else's home, and just go to support the third line. This scared Liu Haizhong!

It's easy to go out. Once you submit your application, no one will stop you. They will approve it and give you a big red flower. But if you want to come back, it will be difficult. You can't come back to Yanjing City whenever you want! It's better to promise him that the two families will take turns living there. At least the children will stay with them! Liu Haizhong chose to compromise. As long as he got married and lived at home for a period of time, he would not be a live-in son-in-law!

This is also because Liu Haizhong's temper has changed recently, Liu Guangqi dared to communicate with him like this. If Liu Haizhong had a bad temper before, Liu Guangqi would not dare to talk to him like this even if he was beaten to death! The final outcome was that Liu Guangqi ran away with his wife!

Chapter 273 Yan Bugui, if it doesn’t work, let the second one take over!

Liu Haizhong drank a glass of wine and said, "Next week, the training is not too busy. You can make an appointment with your in-laws, and we can discuss it together and settle your affairs!"

"Okay, Dad!"

"Next week, after you have settled your affairs, you go get a letter of introduction and get the certificate first. I will go to the street and rent a room in the back house in the front yard for their two brothers to live in. Then I will clean up your room, whitewash it, paste the ceiling, and buy some furniture. This will all take some time. As for the wedding, I think we can't have a big one given the current conditions. Just a simple meal for the two families to eat together. You should talk to Wang Fang first to see if she has any requirements. Find out first. Don't let the two families meet and have a disagreement. That would be awkward!" Liu Haizhong went over it in his mind and told her what he was going to do recently and the wedding arrangements in his mind!

"Dad, I understand. Wang Fang also meant to not have a big celebration, just keep it simple!" Liu Guangqi picked up the wine glass and toasted Liu Haizhong!

"It's a good idea for the child to know that thriftiness is a good thing!" Liu Haizhong had always been worried that his only daughter would be a little spoiled, but he didn't expect that she would be such a reasonable and understanding daughter-in-law!

"When you meet your in-laws, you can ask them what they think, or go to a restaurant for a meal? Food is really hard to buy nowadays, and it's not easy to entertain them at home!" Liu Haizhong added that when it comes to such family affairs, the second aunt will not interrupt, and Liu Haizhong has always been the one who has the final say!

"Okay, got it, Dad. If we agree on a time, I'll go book a hotel!" Liu Guangqi nodded and agreed.

The brothers Liu Guangtian and Liu Guangfu who were standing next to them were also happy. By moving out, they wouldn't have to stay under Liu Hai's nose every day, and they wouldn't have to pretend to study every night. Freedom was just around the corner!

"Don't be so complacent, you two. I want to see your test results. If you are still the same as last semester, without any improvement, just wait. Don't think that you can relax just because I won't beat you recently!" Liu Haizhong didn't know what they were thinking, so he sounded the alarm for them directly!

"I got it, Dad. We will study hard!" The Liu Guangtian brothers were happy for less than a minute before they suddenly became depressed. They still couldn't escape the threat!

At Yan Bugui's house, dinner was already over. Since they cooked little, they ate quickly. They were reluctant to turn on the lights, and after Li Ruihua finished cleaning up, the old couple went to bed!

"This Shazhu is too stingy. He only gave two eggs. He should have given at least five or six. Doesn't he know that we have many children in our family?" Li Ruihua said dissatisfiedly. It was still early, and he was half leaning against the head of the bed, talking to Yan Bugui!

"Are eggs so easy to buy? Two is good enough. There are about 20 families in our yard. If each family has two eggs, that means we need more than 40 eggs. Seven eggs weigh one pound, so we need six pounds of eggs. We also need to bring two pounds of red eggs to announce the good news to our in-laws. Plus, for Yu Li's confinement, He Daqing needs to prepare at least ten pounds of eggs!" Yan Bugui rolled his eyes and made a rough calculation.

"His family has no shortage of eggs. I saw the daughter-in-law of Old Chen's family carrying a basket of eggs and sending them over!" Li Ruihua said enviously.

"You saw it?"

"Of course I saw it. The basket was covered with a piece of blue cloth, but I could see it through the cracks. Besides, it wasn't eggs, so why did she carry it so carefully?"

"With the Chen family around, of course I have everything I need!" Yan Bugui's face was full of envy. He just couldn't understand why he couldn't get along with the Chen family. He was taking advantage of his neighbors!

"What do you think we should do if we can't find the boss?" Li Ruihua was a little worried. Yan Jiecheng is different now. He used to just do whatever he was told, but now he has his own ideas!

"How is that possible? How can he run away? Besides, where can he run to? He is still in Yanjing City!"

"But if the matchmaker brings the person here, what should we do if we can't find the person?" Li Ruihua's worry is not unreasonable. Although he cannot travel far without a letter of introduction, he is in Yanjing City, and there is nothing he can do if he can't find the person!

Yan Bugui snorted coldly, "Without him, I would have no son. If that doesn't work, I'll let the second son take over! He's already grown up, isn't it just half a year away?"

"That doesn't make sense. If the eldest son doesn't want to get married, why do we get the second son married first?" Li Ruihua was also shocked by Yan Bugui's idea.

"What's the big deal? If we can't find it, the matter will be delayed. The Liu family won't wait. I estimate it will take a week or two for the Liu family to get it done!" Yan Bugui is still very smart and can analyze the clues roughly!

"But the second one has nothing, how can anyone like him?"

"Isn't that the same thing, Boss? The best you can do is be a temporary worker, and you don't even know where you'll be working now?"

"What can I do?" Li Ruihua felt that life was so difficult that it was hard to find a blind date! The days were getting more and more boring! Even Yan Jiefang, who was lying on the bed, never thought that something good would happen to him!

"Okay, stop thinking about it. It's getting late, let's go to bed!" Going to bed early will allow you to sleep longer. Otherwise, you will wake up hungry and won't be able to fall asleep again!

At Old Chen's house, Chen Zhiguo was still calculating under the lamp when a warm bowl was brought over. "Zhiguo, take a break and drink this!" Although it was not the first time for Jiang Xiaohua, she still blushed. "I still have to be busy for a while, you guys go to sleep first!" After saying that, she picked up the bowl and drank it down. While handing the bowl over, she said, "It's a little cold. Next time I want something fresher!"

"Oh! Okay!" Jiang Xiaohua took the bowl and hurried back to the room with a soft and low voice!

Chen Xueru, who was making the bed, looked at the anxious Jiang Xiaohua and said, "She was chased by a dog!"

"No no!"

"Then why are you so anxious?" Chen Xueru teased, "He is not bullying you!"

"No, Zhiguo is busy." Jiang Xiaohua quickly explained.

"Then why are you panicking?"

"Zhiguo, Zhiguo," Jiang Xiaohua couldn't say it.

"He doesn't want to drink hot water, does he?" Chen Xueru was so smart. She could guess what Jiang Xiaohua meant by looking at her shy expression and the bowl she was holding tightly in her hand.

"Sister Xueru, you..." Jiang Xiaohua was very embarrassed!

"Tsk! Why are you so embarrassed? It's not like you've had it before. Just be open about it!" Chen Xueru said indifferently. Ever since she untied the knot in her heart, Chen Xueru has been very open-minded and lets things take their course. She will follow him for the rest of her life anyway. At worst, after Chen Zhiguo gets married, she can live with her grandmother. Anyway, there is a place for her in the Chen family!

Seeing Jiang Xiaohua still lowering her head, he went up and slapped her, "Don't think I don't know that you were sneaking around this morning. Hurry up and make the bed! If he wants it, give it to him. There's no one else in the room anyway. You're an adult, and you already have a child. Why are you still shy? Haven't you seen those girls who just lift up their breasts and feed their children? Who has ever been shy? Who cares if someone is watching?"

Jiang Xiaohua was not as open-minded as Chen Xueru. After hearing what Chen Xueru said, she could only let go of her mood and the two of them made the bed together. "Sister Xueru, please make a few mattresses. The weather has been bad these few days and these are not enough to change!" Jiang Xiaohua's revenge came.

Chen Xueru blushed and slapped Jiang Xiaohua who was kneeling on the kang, "You have never used it before? How dare you say that to me!"

"I am using them, but I don't change as many as you do. You have to change two mattresses every night. Haven't you noticed that grandma is so happy when I dry them in the yard every day? Do you want me to tell grandma that these are all for you?"

"You little girl, how dare you tease me," Chen Xueru climbed onto the kang, and the two of them rolled together!

. . . . . . . . . . .

After Yan Jiecheng knew that Yan Bugui was looking for him, he was silent for a while, "Second Uncle, please tell him that there is no news about me!"

"Yan Jiecheng, you are planning not to meet your family anymore!" Liu Haizhong said in surprise.

"Uncle, you misunderstood," Yan Jiecheng explained, "I just want to wait until the training is over and the results are out before I go back. Otherwise, I'm afraid my dad will find out and I don't know what kind of trouble he will cause!"

Liu Haizhong nodded, "Okay, I get it, you just have to work hard on your own!"

Yan Bugui didn't seem to have any big reaction to Liu Haizhong's reply, nor was he too anxious. Anyway, he still had a backup plan, whether it was to let the second son go on a blind date directly, or to let the second son go on a blind date based on the eldest son's name. Anyway, he already had a son!

Yu Li stayed in the hospital for three days and then asked to be discharged. Chen Zhiguo helped to run a trip and brought her back! According to the old rules of Yanjing City, a child can only see strangers after twelve days of birth, so those who came to congratulate would go to the door, the yard, or at most to the living room to talk, and then leave, leaving some eggs, white sugar, brown sugar, or cakes, etc., as gifts. The amount is not much, everyone is in trouble, more or less, it is a meaning, it is enough to have this heart!

Qin Huairu represented Jia Dongxu's family and sent five eggs. These were hard-earned savings. When Jia Dongxu went to the pigeon market to exchange for coarse grains, he bought ten eggs and reserved them for Banggeng. When Qin Huairu gave birth to Banggeng, He Yuzhu's family and Chen Wanyi both gave gifts. Now that the two families have become one, the gifts have been combined. Giving five eggs can be considered as Jia Dongxu's family taking advantage, but there is no other way. The family can't come up with anything decent! No matter what, even if it is a bowl of corn noodles, you have to send the gift over, otherwise who will associate with your family in the future!

If it were according to Jia Zhang's previous character, she would really do such a thing. But now, after seeing Qin Huairu and Jia Dongxu discussing, she took the eggs from the cupboard and went out without asking any questions, and concentrated on playing with the cloth shoes in her hands!

Chen Zhiguo asked Wang Meihua to send four large pig trotters and two old hens. Chen Zhiguo's space was not short of these. Yu Li could eat them every day, and Chen Zhiguo could provide them. He was just afraid that Yu Li would gain at least 30 pounds after the confinement! Of course, these things could not be sent over openly. Wang Meihua carried them in a cloth bag and walked over. Seeing He Yuzhu busy in the kitchen, she threw them in, "Zhuzi, this is for Yu Li, you clean it up!"

"Thanks, Auntie!"

"Thank you for everything!"

Chen Wanyi came out of the room and pulled Wang Meihua in. Others were not allowed to watch, but was Wang Meihua an outsider? As a result, the consequence of Wang Meihua's watching was that during dinner, her two eyes were always staring at Chen Xueru and Jiang Xiaohua's stomachs!

"Godmother, what's wrong with you?"

"I went to see Zhuzi's baby this morning. He's chubby and so cute. Hey! When can I hold him in my arms?"

Chen Zhiguo rolled his eyes and lowered his head to eat. Chen Dayong picked up his glass and clinked glasses with his grandfather. Only Chen Xueru and Jiang Xiaohua's faces turned red and they also lowered their heads to eat!
