Rebirth He Yuzhu stays away from troubles

Time is like a river that keeps spinning, carrying bits and pieces of people's lives, and keeps flowing forward. With He Yushui's remarriage, the courtyard welcomed a wave of baby births. First, Yu Li from Liang Laigen's family gave birth to a son, and then Li Wan'er from Xu Damao's family gave birth to a daughter.

Yu Li gave birth to a son, and Sai Jinhua, Yu's mother, who only had two daughters, Yu Li and Yu Haitang, was overjoyed. She took care of Yu Li and her son all the time. Liang Ladi's mother Miao Jinfeng was also very happy to see her son had a child, and she always ran to the backyard. Unfortunately, Yu's mother Sai Jinhua was there to help and accompany Yu Li during the confinement period, so she couldn't help at all. Miao Jinfeng felt lost, and could only go to the backyard to show off with He Danan in her arms, He Daxiang and He Dalin, whenever she had the chance. Unfortunately, every time, Yu's mother Sai Jinhua only had her little grandson in her eyes, and didn't even give Miao Jinfeng an envious look.

The Xu family had a daughter, and the happiest people were the old couple Xu Debiao and Wu Fangfang, after all, it was the first child of the third generation of the Xu family. On the day when Xu Damao took Li Wan'er and her daughter back from the hospital, the old couple came to the courtyard and brought their bedding rolls. Xu's mother Wu Fangfang took care of Li Wan'er in the courtyard during her confinement. Whenever the weather was sunny, Xu Debiao would always hold his granddaughter and walk around the courtyard, praising his granddaughter to everyone he met how beautiful she was.

The old residents of the courtyard house who were about the same age as Xu Debiao were already familiar with him. When they saw him praising his granddaughter so much, nine out of ten of them would curiously gather around to see what was going on. However, it would be fine if they didn't look, but once they did, they would be shocked: "Alpaca, this little girl's eyes haven't even opened yet, how can you tell whether she looks good or not? Besides, can beauty have a donkey face? This is a living female version of Xu Damao." However, out of courtesy, everyone would respond to Xu Debiao's words "Your granddaughter looks so much like your son when he was a child." If they were asked to praise the Xu family's granddaughter for her beauty, they would feel guilty if they really opened their mouths.

When Liang Laigeng and Yu Li's son Liang Jianguo celebrated his one-month old birthday, there was no grand banquet held in the courtyard. Instead, the Liang and Yu families and friends simply set up two tables in the backyard and had a meal.

But with the arrival of Xu Damao's daughter Xu Tingfen's full month, things were completely different. Li Wan'er's parents and three brothers from the rural areas outside Beijing all came to the courtyard, bringing a lot of mountain products. The utility room of the deaf old lady in the backyard became the place where Xu's in-laws stayed.

Xu Damao, who was very wealthy, invited He Yuzhu's top disciples Ma Hua, Liu Lan, and Fatty to a banquet on his daughter's full moon day, promising them 5 yuan each and a box of meat and vegetables. In those days, even He Yuzhu, who was used to big occasions, was shocked by Xu Damao's arrogance.

Early that morning, the aunts and grandmas who got along well with the Xu family in the compound started to get busy, borrowing tables and chairs in the yard. Five sets of eight-immortal tables and chairs filled the backyard.

As the aroma of food began to fill the courtyard, Xu Debiao arrived, holding the most beautiful little princess in his heart. Xu Debiao, leisurely, held Xu Tingfen, who was wearing new clothes, and called people from the front yard to the feast. Everyone was confused by Xu Debiao. Isn't it the old tradition of the courtyard to go there at a certain time? You asked us to go so early and sit there to smell the food?

Xu Debiao seemed to see through other people's doubts. After inviting people, he would always say, "There will be plenty of peanuts and melon seeds on the table!" Now, Xu Debiao walked around the courtyard with his granddaughter Xu Tingfen in his arms. The backyard was crowded with children, teenagers, idle aunts and grandmas...

Seeing that most people in the yard had arrived, Xu Damao went straight to the He family, knocked on the door, picked up He Danan, called He Daxiang and He Dalin and left, saying, "Brother Zhu, you and sister-in-law should come earlier, it will be more lively with more people." He Yuzhu originally thought that he could just go to show his support, but he didn't expect Xu Damao to be so capable and bring both his son and daughter to the Xu family. Helpless, He Yuzhu and his wife could only follow the He children.

Colleagues from the Red Star Steel Rolling Mill, Xu Damao's office, and the Propaganda Department also came one after another. When they arrived at the courtyard at No. 95 Luoguxiang, they were also shocked by the lively scene. They wondered in their hearts, "Are daughters so precious now? This scene is rare for a daughter's full month, not to mention a son's full month these days!"

As the auspicious time chosen by Xu Debiao arrived, fish, meat, Qianlong cabbage, four-happiness meatballs, hot and sour potato shreds, white flour noodles, and two-grain flour steamed buns... were served on the table one by one. The noisy backyard suddenly became quiet and everyone started to eat.

The Jia family in the Central Courtyard always went out to eat on behalf of Jia Zhang. The Xu family had made Jia Zhang suffer many times, so she did not dare to bring her beloved grandson to eat and drink for free. Qin Huairu, Banggeng and Xiaodang stayed at home.

But the fragrance coming from the backyard almost broke Qin Huairu's defense. Ever since Qin Huairu had attended He Yushui's wedding banquet, she had been craving for food. Although Yi Zhonghai often helped her, she was still hungry and full, and she would not starve to death.

Children are children after all. When she smelled the fragrance, Xiaodang couldn't help it first. Her mouth was watering. She pulled Banggen and walked to the backyard. Qin Huairu didn't plan to stop them. She just followed her two children. Xiaodang was really smart. She wouldn't go to the tables where people from the courtyard were, because she knew they didn't like her and she would be driven away if she went.

So she took Bang Geng and squeezed in to the unfamiliar table. That table was filled with Xu Damao's colleagues at the steel rolling mill. They didn't know what was going on with the two kids and thought they were Xu Damao's relatives, so they didn't stop them.

But with the two children, they ate with their hands, and used both hands to eat fish, meat, chicken and other dishes. Several colleagues from the publicity department were very close to Xu Damao. Seeing the "little relative" of Xu Damao's family like this, they were very angry and shouted, "Da Mao, what's wrong with your little relative! Are you not going to let us eat?"

The quiet dining scene was suddenly interrupted. The people at the other four tables all looked towards the table where Xu Damao's colleagues were sitting. "Oh my god, it's the crooked-necked, lame Xiaodang!" Everyone was not surprised to see that it was the child of the Jia family. They continued with their own meals and had no time to pay attention to the troubles of the Jia family!

When encountering such a thing, everyone in the courtyard could pretend not to know, but they were thinking in their hearts, "Today is the Xu family's big wedding day, how can they deal with this? The Jia family is really inhumane. On their wedding day, you go to make things difficult for them, how immoral..."

But the Xu family is the main family after all, how can they not intervene? Seeing their son's embarrassed expression, the old couple Xu Debiao and Wu Fangfang knew that it was time for them to take action. They left the table and came to Jia Zhang's table. Xu's mother Wu Fangfang pulled Jia Zhang out and threatened her while pulling her away: "If you don't take care of your grandchildren today, I will smash your Jia family to pieces after the banquet..."

Jia Zhang was eating with great relish when she was suddenly pulled away from the table. When she saw that it was Xu Debiao and his wife, she immediately felt her face burning but her anger disappeared. Then when she heard what Wu Fangfang said, her triangular eyes began to scan the tables in the backyard.

Xu's mother Wu Fangfang was dragging Jia Zhang towards the table where Banggeng and Xiaodang were making trouble, when Qin Huairu suddenly rushed out from the backyard door and said to Xu Debiao and his wife in a wronged tone, "Uncle Xu, Aunt Xu, you adults should be magnanimous and stop arguing with these two children. Our family is too poor and they came here when they smelled the fragrance. I really couldn't control them..." As she spoke, she burst into tears.

On a happy day, you come to cry. Everyone present immediately felt unlucky. Xu's mother Wu Fangfang was not polite either. She slapped Jia Zhang directly and ordered: "Today is a happy day for my Xu family. Take your dirty bastard away!"

Jia Zhang knew that she couldn't beat Xu Debiao and his wife, and she didn't want to suffer a loss, so she rushed to Banggeng and Xiaodang, picked them up by the collar and walked away. When she passed Qin Huairu, Jia Zhang threw Xiaodang to the ground like a dead dog, and kicked him a few meters away. Jia Zhang stepped forward and slapped Qin Huairu several times, cursing and warning: "You troublemaker, keep an eye on your little bastard, if he makes trouble in the yard again, get out of the Jia family..."

The incident at the Xu family's full-moon banquet did not dampen everyone's enthusiasm. Xu Damao walked over to He Yuzhu and whispered a few words. He Yuzhu came to the Xu family kitchen and soon boiled pork slices and hand-shredded chicken were cooked. When they were served to the table that was messed up by Bang Geng and Xiao Dang, Xu Damao's colleagues all exclaimed, "We are so lucky today."

Xu Damao listened to the compliments from his colleagues and looked at the envious eyes of the other four tables. He suddenly felt proud and said, "Who am I? I am the most handsome guy in the courtyard..."
