Siheyuan: Rebirth of Shazhu, Many Children and Blessings

"Ziyi, what nonsense are you talking about!" Liu Lan was frightened by Zhou Ziyi's words and quickly covered his mouth.

"You can't say that kind of thing casually, understand?"

"Mom!" Zhou Ziyi took Liu Lan's hand away, frowned, and analyzed like a little adult.

"Our dad doesn't care about us at all. All he cares about is how many bottles of wine he drank today."

"What's the difference between having a father like this and not having one?"

Liu Lan looked at her eldest son's expression, feeling somewhat complicated.

She didn't expect that her son, at such a young age, already understood all this.

She originally thought that as long as she did well enough and cared about them enough, they would not feel a sense of gap in their hearts and would not feel the lack of fatherly love.

"Mom, I saw the uncle who used to send you back from afar. I don't like him."

It was Zhou Ziyi's words that really scared Liu Lan.

She had never thought of letting her son see these things, but she didn't expect that he would notice them anyway.

Liu Lan's tears immediately fell, "I'm sorry, Ziyi, it's all Mom's fault."

"Mom, don't cry, I was wrong, I won't say it again!" Zhou Ziyi was at a loss for what to do when he saw Liu Lan burst into tears because of what he said.

He realized instantly that his words hurt his mother's heart.

When Zhou Ziheng saw his mother and brother crying one after another, he was also frightened and started crying too.

The mother and her two children squatted at the gate of the courtyard and cried for a long time before they calmed down.

"Ziyi, Uncle He already has a wife, so you can't say this in front of anyone from now on, got it?"

After Liu Lan stopped crying, she did not forget to remind her son, fearing that he would say the wrong thing when he saw He Yuzhu in the future.

Zhou Ziyi could only nod dejectedly.

On the other side, He Yuzhu saw that it was still early, so he rode his bike to buy some vegetables, and then returned to his home.

Master Ma was still painting the wall at this time, so Lou Xiao'e and He Yushui sat outside.

"Brother Zhu, you're back." Lou Xiao'e looked at He Yuzhu and smiled softly.

"Have you visited Sister Lan's son?"

"Yeah, I've seen it." He Yuzhu responded while parking his bicycle.

"Guess who I met in the hospital?"

"Qin Huairu and her family?"

"Wife, you are so smart." Lou Xiao'e's reaction was really quick.

"I don't know many people around you. Only Banggeng was hospitalized yesterday. Who else could it be but their family?" Lou Xiao'e said with a smile.

"What a coincidence! Bang Geng lives in the same room with Sister Lan's son."

"They didn't make things difficult for you, did they?" Lou Xiao'e was a little worried that He Yuzhu and Jia Dongxu would have another conflict after meeting.

"They dared." He Yuzhu sneered, "But I beat Jia Dongxu again."

"Why?" Lou Xiao'e's eyes widened instantly. In her eyes, He Yuzhu was not the kind of person who would hit others casually. It must be that Jia Dongxu made him angry again.

"Let me tell you, this Jia Dongxu is not a human being."

He Yuzhu is still angry when he talks about it now, "It would be fine if he came to you to spread rumors, but he actually took advantage of me and Sister Lan going out to buy food and said nonsense in front of someone else's son."

"Why is Jia Dongxu such a person?" He Yushui was also listening on the side and felt that his previous understanding of the people in the hospital was too superficial.

At least in He Yushui's eyes, Jia Dongxu was not the kind of person who gossiped before.

"Does he hate you so much?" Lou Xiao'e frowned, "Do you have any deep hatred with Jia Dongxu?"

"No." In He Yuzhu's memory, although the relationship between the two was not close, it did not seem too bad.

He also didn't know why Jia Dongxu hated him so much now.

Was it because he no longer supported their family’s lunch boxes and had beaten him up a few times?

But this box of lunch was not originally meant for their family. Besides, it was the people from the Jia family who first provoked him to beat up Jia Dongxu.

"I just hope Jia Dongxu won't keep harping on this matter." Lou Xiao'e always felt that this matter was not over yet.

"Okay, let's not think about it anymore. I'll go make dinner now. We'll have braised pork intestines and pickled pepper shredded beef tonight."

"Brother, let me help you." He Yushui also went to the kitchen to help.

"But, brother, what is this pig intestine?" He Yushui had never eaten pig intestine before.

"Pig intestines are pig large intestines," He Yuzhu explained. "No one wants them. They're cheap. They'll give them all to me for a little money."

"Ah? Is this edible?" He Yushui frowned, feeling that it sounded a bit dirty.

"It's delicious. You'll know when it's ready tonight." He Yuzhu said with a smile.

“Washing pig intestines is more troublesome than making them.”

Sure enough, when He Yuzhu started to clean the pig intestines, the smell filled the entire yard.

The third aunt even ran over from the front yard to ask if another child had fallen into the toilet.

But when she saw what He Yuzhu was holding, she also came up to him and asked, "Zhuzi, what are you doing?"

“Pig intestines.”

"Is this thing edible?" Aunt Three was surprised. Her family was already frugal enough, but they had never eaten this thing before.

This is something that no one wants even if it is given to them, and the same goes for pig hearts and lungs.

“It tastes good if it’s done well.”

"Then can you teach me? And let me taste it, too." The third aunt was instantly interested when she heard it.

If this is really edible, then their family can save a lot of money!

"No problem. If Auntie wants to learn, she can just watch me." He Yuzhu nodded.

After seeing He Yuzhu agreed, the third aunt immediately stood by with a smile on her face, watching him process the pig intestines.

However, she never expected that it would take a full two hours just to clean the pig intestines.

Not only did he scrub it repeatedly, but he also tore out all the oil from the intestines.

As a result, when the third uncle came to look for someone because he was so hungry and dizzy, he found that the third aunt was still standing in front of He Yuzhu.

"Yang Ruihua, what are you doing? You haven't cooked yet. We are almost starving to death!" The third uncle complained to the third aunt.

"I'm learning how to cook pig intestines from Zhuzi. If we can cook them well in the future, we can save a lot of money."

"Why don't you just let Zhuzi tell you how to do it? Why do you have to sit here and watch?"

"You don't understand this, it's more intuitive to watch it being made once, otherwise it would be a waste if it doesn't taste good."

"Well, I'll stand here and watch, and you go back to cook."

"You?" The third aunt looked at the third uncle with distrust. Seeing that the third uncle had a stern face and looked unhappy, she had no choice but to give up.

"Okay, then Old Yan, you have to watch carefully." After saying that, the third aunt went back to cook.

With such a big family, they rely on her to cook.
