Rebirth He Yuzhu stays away from troubles

Ordinary days are like beads, stringing together every bit of our lives.

As a carefree man who grew up in the city, Xu Damao had no idea that "a laying hen will lay eggs regularly as long as it is full every day." He only knew to sprinkle some cornmeal in the chicken coop before going out in the morning and after returning home at night, and add water to the small bowl in the chicken coop. As long as the chicken was not dead, he didn't take it seriously whether it laid eggs or not.

Xu Damao's carelessness and the fact that almost no one went in and out of the backyard in the morning created a perfect opportunity for the three children of the Jia family. During these days, the three children ate eggs from the Xu family every day, making them as happy as if it were New Year's Day.

Li Wan'er and her two daughters spent the first day at her mother's home in the countryside. Xu Tingfen, who was about four years old, started to make a fuss, and from time to time she shouted that she wanted to go home and play with Liang Laigen and Yu Li's son Liang Jianguo. Fortunately, the youngest son Xu Zhengsheng was still young and ignorant, and he only knew how to pester Li Wan'er. As for Li Wan'er, she had left the countryside for several years after all, and she was not used to rural life. Although rural life was simple and plain, with her memories of her youth, people of the same age as her either married and moved to other villages, or went to the fields to earn work points, and were busy with their own lives every day. How could anyone be as free as her and have time to play with her!

So, Li Wan'er's parents watched "Xu Tingfen crying and making a fuss every day, and Li Wan'er looked depressed." They felt that this could not go on, and they were also worried about their excellent son-in-law living alone in the city. So, Li Wan'er and her mother were sent back to the courtyard by Li Wan'er's father after only a few days in the countryside.

Ever since Li Wan'er returned to the courtyard, Qin Jingru would always compare herself with her intentionally or unintentionally. "Looking at Li Wan'er, who was plumper and fairer than herself, and looking at her son in her arms and her daughter following her in and out," she couldn't help but feel inferior. She felt that she was not as good as Li Wan'er, and she was not worthy of Xu Damao at all...

After all, Li Wan'er grew up in the countryside. As soon as the rooster crowed, she could tell whether it was hungry and asking for food, or whether it was about to lay eggs and giving a reminder. So as soon as the rooster stopped crowing, she would take the eggs away in time. Moreover, when she was pregnant with Xu Tingfen, she had experienced the incident of chicken soup being stolen from her home, so she was still a little wary of the people in the yard.

The three children of the Jia family have not been able to get eggs since Li Wan'er came back. Every time Li Wan'er took the eggs, Xiao Dang could only watch at the gate connecting the middle courtyard and the backyard. Seeing Li Wan'er take away the eggs she had been longing for, her heart was full of hatred, and her eyes were full of resentment when she looked at Li Wan'er... It was as if something that belonged to her was taken away by someone.

That day, He Yuzhu found an excuse and went home half an hour earlier from get off work. When he got home, he saw Wu Shuangmu and Ran Qiuye were both there, and he remembered the chicken Xu Damao had given him. He came to Xu Damao's house and saw Li Wan'er busy in the kitchen. He said something to her at the door, then opened the chicken coop, grabbed a chicken and left.

After a few days, Xiao Dang failed to get the eggs. In addition, Qin Huairu didn't bring back much food during this period, and she and Xiao Huaihua got even less. So the hatred and resentment in her heart were about to explode. On this day, she finally found a good opportunity. She was staying at the door of Jia's house, watching He Yuzhu catch a chicken from the backyard and take it home. Her eyes suddenly lit up, called Banggeng, took a bag from Jia's house, and walked to the backyard.

As Xiaodang walked, she thought about the unsuccessful attempt to roast a duck in the countryside when she was a child. She felt regretful and drooled. She leaned close to Banggeng and whispered, "We caught a chicken today. Let's make roast chicken." Banggeng didn't know what roast chicken was. He just nodded at Xiaodang out of habit.

Xiaodang and Banggeng walked through the gate connecting the middle yard and the backyard and tiptoed in. Fortunately, every family in the backyard was busy preparing their own dinner and no one was outside the backyard.

Xiaodang saw that there was no one around, so she quickly opened the chicken coop and let Banggeng catch the chicken. She twisted the chicken's neck and broke it. The two of them hurriedly put the chicken into the bag and ran away. Although Xiaohuahua couldn't speak, she thought that her brother and sister must have got the eggs, so she limped along with her left leg and followed them.

Li Wan'er, who was in the Xu family's kitchen, actually heard the fluttering and screaming of the chickens the next time. She just thought He Yuzhu was catching chickens, so she didn't go out to pay attention. After all, stealing a hen that lays eggs is no small matter these days, and it's hard to imagine that someone would be so bold in broad daylight.

Xiaodang and Banggeng ran in front, and Xiaohuahua followed closely with a limp, and soon they reached the cement pipe near the Red Star Steel Mill. In this life, Banggeng did not have the wisdom and talent of his previous life, so how could he cook beggar's chicken? In this life, without Shazhu to pamper the children of the Jia family, they did not even know where the canteen door of the steel mill was, let alone who would go to the canteen kitchen to steal soy sauce.

Among the three children of the Jia family, Xiaodang was the wisest and most intelligent. She also had experience in roasting duck, so she ordered Banggeng and Xiaohuahua to do the work. The chicken feathers were not plucked, the internal organs were not removed, and there was no cleaning... They just roasted it there randomly.

Many people who were going home from get off work saw a few children playing with fire near the cement pipe near the steel mill. Of course, Xu Damao also saw a few sneaky children from the Jia family. However, he didn't have time to deal with these unwelcome children.

After returning home, Xu Damao parked his bicycle and grabbed a handful of corn flour as usual, preparing to feed the chickens and add water. When he arrived at the chicken coop, there was nothing but the open coop, so he asked anxiously, "Wan'er, where are our chickens?"

"Brother Zhu, he told me earlier that he caught it today and is going to cook it." Li Wan'er answered naturally.

Xu Damao put the cornmeal in his hand back into the grain bag and ran to the He family. He was not stingy, he just thought, "Two old hens that big, the He family can't finish them! At least one should be given to the Xu family, no, half of it..."

Xu Damao pushed open the kitchen door of the He family and saw He Yuzhu busying himself there. He teased, "Brother Zhu, can you give me one of the chickens today?"

He Yuzhu listened to Xu Damao's nonsense and choked him carelessly: "Da Mao, I know you don't like to suffer losses, but you can't be so excessive! You are totally fooling me! You said you had a chicken for my family, but I caught a chicken to eat, and you asked for one right away, so how about we just drink soup? You are the smartest person in the world, right?"

Hearing this, Xu Damao was also anxious. He was also afraid that He Yuzhu would misunderstand, so he pulled He Yuzhu to the backyard. The two arrived in front of the chicken coop and looked at the empty chicken coop, and they had nothing to say. But He Yuzhu had the memory of his previous life. He thought about it and said, "Da Mao, look at the footprints around the chicken coop, and then think about the cement pipe near the steel mill... Figure it out yourself! I have guests at home, so I'll go home to cook dinner first." After He Yuzhu finished speaking, he left without looking back. He didn't want to get involved in the shitty things in the courtyard.

Xu Damao looked at the small footprints around the chicken coop, which were obviously bigger than his own children's feet. He couldn't help but think of Jia's Banggeng and Xiaodang. He thought again, "On the way home from get off work, the three children of the Jia family were playing with fire next to the cement pipe near the steel mill..." He pondered in his heart and slowly came up with an idea, "This is a godsend opportunity. Here is a good opportunity to control Qin Huairu and Qin Jingru..."

After dinner, repeated shouts rang out from the front, middle, and back yards of the quadrangle: "Each household should send a representative to gather in the middle yard for a meeting..."
