Siheyuan: The Rebirth of the Silly Pillar in the 50s

a few days later.

He Yuzhu went back to He Daqing's house for dinner after get off work.

He saw Qin Huairu coming out of Yi Zhonghai's house, holding a huge wash basin in her hand.

She looked up and saw him.

His eyes were lifeless.

The two people passed each other as if they didn't know each other.

He Yuzhu ignored her and went straight home.

"Zhuzi is back? Wash your hands and eat quickly!"

Gao Xiaocui brought the hot food to the table.

He Daqing took out a bottle of good wine from the cabinet and said, "Let's have two drinks today."

"What a happy event, so elegant?"

He Yuzhu smiled and touched the head of He Yuzhu who was preparing to eat secretly.

He Yuyu stuck out his tongue in embarrassment.

"I've read the newspaper. Your negotiation with the Xiong people this time was a complete success. So a big page is full of your photos! I saw you even took a photo with the big boss! Really, Zhuzi, you can be so successful, Dad is really happy..."

He Daqing had tears in his eyes as he spoke.

Gao Xiaocui quickly wiped him with her sleeve.

"Zhu is happy to be successful. Why are you crying if you are happy?"

"Crying with joy, crying with joy!"

He Daqing filled He Yuzhu's glass of wine.

A family of four sat down.

"Our family's life is getting better and better. To be honest, three years ago I never thought that I, He Daqing, would live like this!"

He Yuzhu teased him: "If you really ran away at that time, I'm afraid, you and Yi Zhonghai would end up in the same fate!"

As soon as these words came out, there was some awkwardness at the dinner table.

He Daqing glanced at Gao Xiaocui.

Gao Xiaocui didn't shy away from it at all.

She said: "In the past two days, I kept running into Qin Huairu while washing clothes in the central courtyard. I saw her washing Yi Zhonghai's pants!"

"what?"

He Daqing was surprised, then smacked his lips and said: "This Lao Yi is a bit too much. How can a pregnant woman wash such thoughtful clothes!"

"Can she live in their house for free?"

He Yuzhu said calmly: "Jia Zhang has not been able to save money yet. The hospital expenses are too high and she can only take her home. If Yi Zhonghai doesn't take them in, they will have nowhere to go."

"I didn't expect that Lao Yi could take care of their mother-in-law and daughter-in-law. This is not like his character at all!"

He Daqing sighed.

"Because Qin Huairu is pregnant!"

He Yuzhu smiled and said: "Yi Zhonghai is not stupid either. Jia Dongxu has gone to other places now. He has no support for his old age. I guess he is counting on the child in her belly!"

"It seems that Jia Dongxu hasn't believed it for a long time. Such a big thing happened to their family. He is really not worried at all."

Gao Xiaocui couldn't help but interrupt.

"We have nothing to do with their family affairs!"

He Yuzhu smiled and raised his cup and said, "Didn't you say you were celebrating for me? Let's do one first!"

"Yes, yes! Zhuzi's affairs are the big ones. Let's not talk about other people's affairs! Let's have a good drink with Zhuzhu today!"

The adults raised their glasses.

He Yuyu looked at the water in his hand, pursed his lips and said, "I want to drink it too!"

"Little girl, what are you drinking? Soda!"

He Yuyu was told by his brother, he hugged his arms and said proudly: "I didn't see you pouring me soda! There is only a glass of water in front of me!"

Everyone burst into laughter, and the family of four enjoyed themselves happily.

……

Qin Huairu had just washed the clothes and was ready to dry them.

At this time, the postman outside the door called her name.

"Qin Huairu, I have your letter!"

Qin Huairu ran over and wiped her hands before receiving the letter.

"thank you!"

The postman left without looking back.

Qin Huairu couldn't wait to open the letter.

It's a letter from Jia Dongxu.

It starts with some kind words and only gets to the point after a few lines.

【Huairu. I'm so happy to hear you're pregnant. We finally had a child of our own. I am very happy here. I eat, drink and live in the factory. Just because I have been unable to become a full-time employee and the salary is not high. So there is no money to send to you. In addition, you wrote that our house was taken away by the factory. I applied for a house with the factory, but was quickly rejected. I didn't become a regular worker, and I wasn't qualified to be assigned a house in the factory. So thank you for staying at Yi Zhonghai's house temporarily. When I become a regular employee, I will immediately apply for a new house and bring you and mom to Baocheng. Believe me. 】

After Qin Huairu finished reading the letter, he was completely lost.

Jia Dongxu hasn't paid back for a long time.

Yi Zhonghai is responsible for all her and Jia Zhang's expenses.

She knew that Yi Zhonghai was responsible for all this for the sake of the child in her belly.

But it's okay if the time is short, but Yi Zhonghai will definitely not be happy if the time is long.

The days of being dependent on others are really painful.

If Mrs. Jia Zhang hadn't been ill and pregnant, she would have preferred to live in a warehouse.

I don’t want to live in Yi Zhonghai’s house and see other people’s faces.

Jia Dongxu said that he could apply for housing allocation again with the factory only after becoming a regular employee, but when can he become a regular employee?

a year?

two years?

Or even ten or eight years?

Qin Huairu couldn't help but shed tears again when she thought of this.

At this time, Yi Zhonghai's shouts rang out from the house: "Qin Huairu! Mrs. Jia Zhang pooped again! Come and clean it up quickly!"

"coming!"

Qin Huairu quickly wiped her tears and rushed into the room.

In the room, Mrs. Jia Zhang sat awkwardly on the bed.

Opposite him stood an angry Yi Zhonghai.

He pointed at Mrs. Jia Zhang without any mercy and reprimanded: "You have an infectious disease, but you are not paralyzed! Why do you have to be waited on when you poop and pee? It makes the whole house stink! This is not about feelings You have your own home, right?"

Mrs. Jia Zhang has lost her former energy since she fell ill.

She was just silent, her head hanging down like a child who had made a mistake.

Yi Zhonghai's words "Emotions are no longer your own" made her heartbroken.

"Uncle Yi, let me take care of it."

Qin Huairu said as she went to clean up Jia Zhang's urine.

The stench rushed up to her nose, making her pregnant and retching.

"How long will it take to finish cleaning up?"

Yi Zhonghai complained: "Did Jia Dongxu reply to the letter? Has the house in Baocheng been approved?"

Qin Huairu shook his head.

"A house has been grinding for so long. I really don't know what I owed your family in my previous life. Take care of the younger ones and the older ones!"

Qin Huairu took a deep breath, she couldn't bear it anymore.

"Uncle Yi, I can understand why you are angry. But our two families have agreed that if the child in my belly is a son, I will immediately recognize you as my godfather. We don't live and eat for free. You have a grandson to support you in old age. It should also be a life guarantee for you, right? And you don’t have to worry. As soon as Dongxu becomes a regular employee, he will take us to Baocheng! By then, no one in our family will be able to trouble you, okay? ?Are you satisfied?"
