The beginning of Siheyuan starts with refusing to bring lunch boxes

"Hello, Sister Qin"

"Uncle, I just came to see you. I'm going to go back now. You haven't eaten yet, right? Please eat first."

Looking at Qin Huairu leaving, Yi Zhonghai's eyes revealed an inexplicable light. I don't know what he is thinking.

At this time, I heard the voice of an old lady, "Lao Yi, come and eat quickly, Xiaoying, Nian'en, it's time to eat."

"Mom, that's great, let's eat," Yi Zhonghai put on a smile again and sat back at the table.

The laughter in Yi Zhonghai's house filled the courtyard. The people in the courtyard only talked about Yi Zhonghai's adoption of a child after dinner.

Chapter 65 The Old Lady Meditates for Yi Zhonghai

When Qin Huairu returned to the Jia family, Jia Zhang immediately stood up and asked, "Huairu, how is it?"

Qin Huairu sat down at the table with a gloomy face, nodded and said, "Yes, it is true that three children were adopted. The older one is a girl, and the two younger ones are boys."

Jia Zhang waved her hands and said, "What should I do now? What should I do?"

Qin Huairu thought for a while, and finally sighed and said, "Oh, Mom, there's nothing we can do about it. They want to adopt the child, and there's no reason for us to stop them."

Hearing Qin Huairu's words, Jia Zhang was also deflated. She actually understood this logic, but...

After a long while, the two of them ate something and stopped talking.

Around six o'clock, Yi Zhonghai and his wife, along with their three children, went to each household in the yard to greet them, and then gave each family six candies and a handful of peanuts.

When they arrived at Yan's house, Yan Bugui asked, "Old Yi, have these three children been named? As the only teacher in our school, how about I give them some names?"

Yi Zhonghai knew Yan Bugui's character and said with a smile, "Old Yan, don't bother with that. I've already given them names. The eldest is Yi Xiaoying, the second is Yi Nian'en, and the third is Yi Cheng'en."

Yan Bugui naturally looked regretful and heartbroken. If he was asked to name a name, he would have to pay at least fifty cents for each name. After sending Yi Zhonghai and his family away, the second aunt collected the peanuts and candies, which made the children very greedy.

In the Yi family in the middle courtyard, Jia Zhangshi was furious and stayed in the house. The candies and peanuts that Qin Huairu brought out were all taken away by Banggeng. Xiaodang was crying loudly. Yi Zhonghai sighed in his heart and was also very grateful.

Liu Haizhong in the backyard congratulated Yi Zhonghai with a fake smile.

At about half past six, He Yuzhu pushed his cart into the courtyard. The door god Yan Bugui was still there. When he saw He Yuzhu, he smiled and said, "Zhuzi, why are you back today?"

"I have something to do, you are busy"

Yan Bugui came up and whispered, "I'm telling you, uncle..."

Before Yan Bugui finished speaking, He Yuzhu interrupted and said, "I see, the old man adopted three children. I have to go and see them later. See you later!"

Yan Bugui, who was interrupted, looked constipated.

When he arrived at the middle courtyard, He Yuzhu saw that the door was locked and Master Chen had gone home. He parked his car in the courtyard and went to Yi's house.

"Uncle, aunt, congratulations, I just came back to see you," the two people who were at home with their children saw He Yuzhu coming over and responded happily.

"Zhu Zi is back. This is the oldest, Xiao Ying, who will be six soon. This is the second oldest, Nian En, who will be four soon. The one in your aunt's arms is the third oldest, Cheng En, who will be one in four months."

"Xiaoying, Nian'en, this is your brother Zhuzi, hurry up and call him."

"Hello, Brother Zhuzi", the two are very well behaved

"Hello," He Yuzhu took out a White Rabbit from his pocket and said, looking at the skinny eldest and second brother, "This is what Brother Zhuzi gave you, take it."

The two turned around and looked at Yi Zhonghai and said, "Dad, is it okay?" Yi Zhonghai was very satisfied with the reactions of the two children. They were such sensible children. Compared with the two children from the Jia family, they were simply one in heaven and one in hell.

He smiled and said, "Take it, it's given to you by your brother Zhuzi."

At this time, the two of them took the fructose and said to He Yuzhu, "Thank you, brother Zhuzi"

"Go play," He Yuzhu said to the two children with great satisfaction. These are well-educated children. The ungrateful people in the Jia family can't catch up with them.

"Well, uncle, I'm going to go see the old lady first. I came back too late."

"Well, go ahead." When Yi Zhonghai heard He Yuzhu say that he wanted to go to the backyard, he felt a little nervous, but he still said calmly.

backyard

He Yuzhu took a small bag of egg cakes from the handlebars. This was a reward from the system. He was rewarded with 100 kilograms at once, but he only took six for the old lady.

"Old lady, old lady"

"Silly Zhuzi is here, come in quickly, the door is not locked"

With a creak, he pushed the door open, took out the small bag like a treasure, and said, "Old lady, please smell it."

The deaf old lady sniffed it and said, "Smells good, sweet egg cake?"

"(????)??Hi, old lady, the older you get, the sharper your nose becomes. I got this from our director this afternoon. Hey, I've brought it all to you. Come and try it."

"Mm, my eldest grandson is really filial. Madam, try it. Mm, it's sweet and fragrant."

"By the way, old lady, why did you call me back?" He Yuzhu asked

The old lady pointed at the door and said, "Grandson, go and close the door. I want to talk to you about something." He Yuzhu stood up, closed the door, and sat next to the old lady.

The old lady got up from the bed and took out an iron box, put it on the table and said, "Zhu Zi, open it and take a look."

He Yuzhu opened the iron box suspiciously. Inside was a stack of money and some letters. "Old lady, this is..."

"These are the letters and money that He Daqing has sent over the years. Take a look."

He Yuzhu was horrified. What the hell was this? Did Yi Zhonghai expose himself?

He Yuzhu didn't count the money, but picked up a letter. The envelope was for Yi Zhonghai. He didn't read the letter, but looked at the deaf old lady, and then asked calmly, "Old lady, this is what the uncle gave you. What do you mean..."

He Yuzhu knew that Yi Zhonghai had withheld the child support from a long time ago. He originally planned to use this to destroy Yi Zhonghai if he was too tactless. But when he saw the recipient of the letter and the recipient of the money, he knew that this matter would not do anything to Yi Zhonghai. At most, he would only be morally condemned. Moreover, he was not the original body, so he did not take these things very seriously. Therefore, he was not very angry. Now that the old lady took over this matter, it seemed that the old lady wanted him to let this matter go.

Sure enough, the old lady said, "Zhu Zi, I know Zhong Hai did something wrong in this matter. He told me about it. He had selfish motives. He thought that since He Daqing was gone and didn't care about you siblings anymore, he should just cut off the relationship. As for him, since he doesn't have children, he wants to build some relationship with you. In the future, you will take care of him."

Although the old lady was shocked by He Yuzhu's calmness, she originally thought that He Yuzhu would be furious and lose his temper, but she didn't expect him to say these words so calmly. She observed that He Yuzhu still looked calm, so she continued,

"Zhu Zi, I have benefited from their care over the years, and your aunt has also taken care of you and your brother over the years. Can you forgive your uncle for this matter for my sake and for the care your aunt has given you and your brother over the years?"

He Yuzhu didn't say anything and continued to look at the old lady. The deaf old lady was confused by He Yuzhu's calmness. She didn't know what to do after 70 years of experience. So she asked, "Zhuzi, what do you think?"

He Yuzhu then spoke, "I'm afraid it's not just me who needs to forgive him."

The deaf old lady was shocked. She felt that He Yuzhu in front of her was not the silly Zhu she used to be. He was too smart. She looked at He Yuzhu deeply, then sighed and said, "Your uncle adopted three children today, so he gave up his plan for you and gave up training Qin Huairu and Jia's family. He now only wants to train his three children well. However, he is a little older now, so he wants to ease the relationship with you. In the future, when the three children grow up, you can take care of them."

The deaf old lady saw that He Yuzhu didn't say anything and just looked at her, so she sighed and said, "Also, with you watching over them, you can prevent these three children from being unfilial in the future. That's all."

Hearing this, He Yuzhu knew all of Yi Zhonghai's plans, but he thought about it and realized that he would have to live in this courtyard for the next 20 years. Yi Zhonghai only owed Shazhu and his sister this matter, and he hadn't done anything excessive in other matters. So he said, "I can forgive you, but I have two conditions: first, he must apologize to Yushui in person, after all, Yushui has been resenting He Daqing since she was 6 years old; second, he must pay Yushui 300 yuan in compensation."

The deaf old lady thought these two conditions were not too much, so she said, "Zhu Zi, go call your uncle over, and you two can talk things out."

He Yuzhu nodded and went to Yi's house

A few minutes later, Yi Zhonghai followed He Yuzhu uncomfortably into the deaf old lady's house.

"Zhonghai, Zhuzi said that we can let this go, but there are two conditions: first, you have to apologize to Yushui in person. After all, you are largely responsible for Yushui's resentment towards He Daqing. Second, you have to pay Yushui 300 yuan to Zhonghai. What do you think?"

Yi Zhonghai didn't care about the 300 yuan, but he was a little reluctant to apologize to Yu Shui. However, after a little thought, he agreed.

"Well, Zhonghai, on Sunday, you go buy some food, Zhuzi, you cook, call Yushui over, and we'll have a meal. Is that okay with you?"

He Yuzhu and Yi Zhonghai both nodded. He Yuzhu took the letter and money and went back to the factory dormitory first, while Yi Zhonghai stayed behind.

The old lady said to Yi Zhonghai, "Zhonghai, as long as Zhuzi is willing to let it go, it's fine. If you don't plot against him in the future, he will forgive you completely sooner or later. Don't be impatient, okay? Now your first priority is to educate the three children."

Although Yi Zhonghai was somewhat dissatisfied, he still nodded. The old lady continued, "Also, in the future, don't be too partial to the Jia family in the courtyard. If not for anything else, it's for the three children, right?"

Yi Zhonghai nodded and went back home to tell the aunt everything. The aunt said, "It's right. You should apologize. If you want to apologize, I have to apologize too. We are husband and wife and you should give me the money. This is because Zhuzi remembers our relationship over the years. Otherwise, if there is a quarrel, at least your reputation will be gone. How can the three of them live in the whole street? Old Yi, don't hold a grudge. Since we did something wrong in the past, we should admit our mistakes sincerely. It's okay in the future. As long as Xiaoying, Nian'en and Cheng'en grow up healthily, it will be a blessing for us. Don't you think so?"

Yi Zhonghai had finally let it go, so he went back to teasing the three children...

Chapter 66 Tell He Yushui

He Yuzhu, who returned to the dormitory of the steel mill, was thinking about what happened today.

"It seems that the old lady must have done some ideological work on Yi Zhonghai. In addition, some time ago, a lady and Yi Zhonghai went to the hospital for a check-up. Yi Zhonghai was afraid of losing face. In addition, he would no longer be controlled by Yi Zhonghai in this life, so Yi Zhonghai chose to adopt a child. Obviously, adopting a child is the best way out. He originally wanted to make a small investment for a big gain, just like a gambler. Now he has taken the initiative to talk about the child support. Let's just let it go. After all, I'm not a fool. It's just that I still have to tell Yushui about this matter. For the past ten years, she has always resented He Daqing for abandoning her. Perhaps, knowing this, she will let go of her hatred for He Daqing."

As he was thinking, He Yuzhu fell asleep.

The next day, perhaps because of his biological clock, he woke up at 6:30. Although there were no roosters crowing in the dormitory of the steel mill,

He washed up first, then went out to have breakfast. The steel mill did not provide breakfast, only one meal at noon. Except for the occasional leader who needed a small meal, the factory would only cook in the evening.

He ordered a bowl of wontons, paid the money and the food coupons, and He Yuzhu felt that this era was really good, with real ingredients and full portions. Unlike later times, many places would shortchange the food. He Yuzhu remembered that when he went out to play in his previous life, he went to eat hot pot. The price of a catty of mutton was 69, but when he saw the mutton served, it was obviously not enough. The local diner next to him saw his puzzled expression and said directly that it was only eight taels. Their price was cheaper, but he admitted directly that it was only eight taels.

At that time, he exclaimed that it was awesome, but he was just a tourist, so he just held his nose and ate a big bowl of wontons. He was very satisfied, and then bought six meat buns at the street corner and went to He Yushui School.

"Uncle, do you still remember me? I'm looking for He Yushui and Song Xiaomei from Class 1 and 2 of Senior High School." He Yuzhu certainly wouldn't forget this future sister-in-law.

"Okay, wait a moment." The old man always got a cigarette from He Yuzhu, and he was very friendly. Ten minutes later, He Yushui and Song Xiaomei ran over happily. The two girls were both foodies. When they heard He Yuzhu coming, they immediately thought of delicious food, so they ran over directly. Even the gatekeeper laughed helplessly.

"elder brother"

"Brother Pillar"

"Xiaomei, these are meat buns, take them and eat them. I have something to talk to Yushui about," he said, handing three meat buns to Song Xiaomei. Although Song Xiaomei was a foodie, she was quite smart. She knew that the siblings had something private to discuss, so she said, "Okay, Brother Zhuzi, thank you, Brother Zhuzi, Yushui. I'll be over now."

After Song Xiaomei left, He Yushui looked at her brother and asked, "Brother, what do you want to talk to me about?" Before asking, she took a big bite of the meat bun. The unique aroma of the meat bun satisfied her gluttony at once.

He Yuzhu didn't say anything, just watched her eat. After she ate two, he said, "Yushui, take a look at these letters."

He Yushui took the letter in confusion. From the envelope, it was a letter from He Daqing to Yi Zhonghai. "Brother, why would He Daqing write to the first uncle?" He opened the letter and started to cry. Then, with tears in her eyes and a little anger, she said, "Brother, you mean that Dad didn't ignore us all these years and sent money to the first uncle and asked him to pass it on to us?"

He Yuzhu sighed and nodded.

"But he didn't give us any. We came here to pick up trash in the first two years after He Daqing left! He watched us go out early and come back late every day to pick up trash, but he never gave us the money?!" He Yushui threw herself into He Yuzhu's arms, crying, and tightly grasped He Yuzhu's clothes.

He Yuzhu just watched He Yushui venting her anger quietly. He knew that He Daqing's abandonment was the biggest thorn in her heart over the years. She had suffered so much from rumors over the years, especially Jia Zhang, who always said that He Yushui was a disaster star who killed her mother and her father.

After a long time, He Yushui, with red eyes, gradually stopped crying. Then she looked at He Yuzhu and said, "Brother, in fact, you are the one who has suffered the most over the years. If you had this 15 yuan, you wouldn't have to suffer so much for our food." He Yushui cried again, but this time it was not for herself, but for her brother, who had raised her 15-year-old sister since he was 6 years old.

"Brother~" He Yushui threw herself into He Yuzhu's arms again

He Yuzhu patted He Yushui on the back and said, "Yushui, Yi Zhonghai told me everything yesterday and apologized to me. I think that the money and the letter were sent directly to Yi Zhonghai. If I call the police, at most he will get some compensation and won't go to jail. The biggest punishment for him is probably losing his reputation and his position as a big boss. So, I told him two things yesterday, listen to them."

He Yushui wiped her tears and left He Yuzhu's arms, and continued to listen

"First, you need Yi Zhonghai to apologize to you personally, and second, you need to be compensated 300 yuan. What do you think?"

Although He Yushui was unwilling, she was also a smart person. She thought that her brother still had to live in the Siheyuan, and that her aunt had taken care of them over the years. If she pushed too hard, on the one hand, she would become mortal enemies with the Yi family, and on the other hand, her reputation in the Siheyuan would probably not be very good. And she would have to marry out of the Siheyuan sooner or later. Thinking of this, He Yushui nodded and said, "Well, brother, I'll listen to you."
