Rebirth He Yuzhu stays away from troubles

In his previous life, Sha Zhu supported the Jia family and helped Qin Huairu raise three ungrateful people: Banggeng, Xiaodang and Huaihua. He found ways to find them jobs, contributed his own house, and let them get married and have children. When the Jia family became stable and prosperous, Sha Zhu was ruthlessly abandoned.

After devoting his whole life to the cause, all he got was the nicknames “Silly Zhu, Silly Uncle, Silly Dad…”

In his previous life, Sha Zhu was uncertain and confused when Lou Xiao'e and 10-year-old He Xiao appeared in his life and faced his own son.

Having lived two lives, He Yuzhu now truly feels the joy of becoming a father for the first time.

Liang Ladi looked at He Yuzhu's face, which was filled with unconcealed joy, and his eyes were as bright and shining as stars. "Brother Zhu, I'm going to make dinner," Liang Ladi said gently.

"Ladi, I will cook dinner from now on! For the sake of the baby, you should avoid exposure to cooking fumes. Go listen to the radio, it will influence our baby and make him feel happy in the belly..." He Yuzhu said with a smile, holding Liang Ladi's hand.

"Brother Zhu, you are so nice to me," Liang Ladi said with a sweet smile.

Late at night, He Yuzhu and Liang Ladi were lying on the bed chatting idly, they were full of longing and expectation for the future.

The next morning, after the couple had breakfast, He Yuzhu rode his bicycle with Liang Ladi on his back, accompanying Liang Ladi to complete the entry procedures for the kindergarten affiliated to the Red Star Steel Rolling Mill. Seeing her happily going to work, He Yuzhu went to the steel rolling mill.

After a day of orderly work, all he thought about was Liang Ladi and the child. Finally, the bell rang, and He Yuzhu hurriedly rode his bike to the kindergarten to pick up Liang Ladi. When he arrived at the kindergarten, he was told that the nursery teacher would be off work at around 4 p.m. He Yuzhu said hello to Liang Ladi at home and went to Chaoyang Vegetable Market.

It has to be said that although materials were scarce and production and breeding speeds were slow in this era, the chickens, ducks, fish, meat and various vegetables seen in the market were all grown naturally and cultivated naturally.

He Yuzhu bought more than a pound of wild crucian carp (4 pieces), more than a pound of spinach, a piece of old tofu, and some onions and ginger.

He Yuzhu returned home and saw Liang Ladi tearing up the rags. Liang Ladi said gently, "Brother Zhu, I sorted out the rags at home and planned to make them into diapers."

"My wife is so virtuous...Wife, I'm going to clean up the food," He Yuzhu said happily.

"Go ahead, and call me when you need my help," Liang Ladi said considerately.

"Yes, sir," He Yuzhu joked.

Entering the kitchen, He Yuzhu picked the spinach and soaked it in a vegetable bowl, cleaned the fish and drained the water, put the tofu in a bowl with clean water, and washed the ginger, onion and garlic and set aside.

Put water in the pot, light the stove, put the steamer on the pot, and put the steamed buns on the steamer. When the spinach is almost soaked, take it out and drain the water for later use.

After completing these preparations, He Yuzhu looked at his watch and saw that it was almost time, so he started cooking.

Heat the pan and pour in oil. When the oil is 7% to 8% hot, put in the crucian carp and fry until both sides are golden brown. Add appropriate amount of water and ginger slices. Bring the fish soup to a boil and add garlic. Then He Yuzhu turns down the stove and simmer on low heat.

He Yuzhu went to the main house and said to Ladi, "I'll go and invite the old lady to come and have some fish soup." "Go ahead," Liang Ladi replied.

Entering the backyard, He Yuzhu called softly, "Old lady, have you eaten?"

"Grandson, why are you here today?" The old lady looked at He Yuzhu lovingly.

"I made some fish soup tonight and it's stewing now! If you would be so kind as to let me taste it, please do me a favor." He Yuzhu said jokingly.

"In this compound... only my eldest grandson knows how to respect me." The deaf old lady said, picked up her crutches, and walked towards the central courtyard holding He Yuzhu's hand.

"Zhu Zi, cook fish soup for the old lady tonight! The old lady will be in for a treat." The second aunt greeted me enthusiastically.

"Second aunt, I'll bring you a bowl of crucian carp soup later." He Yuzhu said with an idea in mind.

"Second Master consumes a lot of energy every day. Please wait, I will bring it to you later."

"Zhu Zi, this is not possible." The second aunt declined.

He Yuzhu helped the old lady into the house, Liang Ladi helped the old lady sit down, and the two of them listened to the radio and talked and laughed.

He Yuzhu went to the kitchen and put the cut tofu into the fish soup to cook. He moved the steamer to one side, turned up the fire, and heated the pot with oil.

Add minced garlic and spinach and stir-fry... After a while, the crucian carp soup with steamed buns, garlic-mashed spinach and sprinkled with chopped green onions is served.

He Yuzhu picked up a larger crucian carp, poured a small bowl of fish soup, and sent it to the second uncle's house.

"Second Aunt, please continue."

"Zhu Zi, you are too polite."

"Look, Uncle and Auntie have worked so hard, and this little bit of food is not rare."

"Second Aunt, please give me the bowl. I'm going back."

The second aunt looked at He Yuzhu with a smile and returned to the central courtyard.

He Yuzhu thought, "Reputation is too important in this era. Even though my sister has been given up for adoption, if I really don't care about her at all, I will be drowned in spit."

"But according to the Liu family's character, only the second aunt and the eldest son Liu Guangqi could eat a piece of scrambled eggs. Liu Guangtian, Liu Guangfu, and Liu Guangxiu had no share at all."

"Haha... I can send fish soup to the Liu family, which is my gesture; but if Liu Guangxiu can't eat it, it's not my concern."

He Yuzhu returned to the house and saw Liang Ladi accompanying the old lady to drink fish soup and eat. "Old lady, you have to eat this fish slowly, there are many bones." He Yuzhu put a crucian carp into the old lady's bowl and joked.

"Ladi, you'll be blessed in this life by marrying my eldest grandson..." the old lady took a few sips of the soup, savoring the taste.

"Old lady, it is my blessing to meet Ladi..." He Yuzhu said proudly.

"Yes, yes...Lady is a good kid."

...

"Knock knock knock..." There was a knock on the door.

We looked at each other in confusion, and He Yuzhu got up to open the door.

He Yuzhu opened the door and it was indeed Qin Huairu who appeared, with a large bowl hidden behind her.

"What are you doing?" He Yuzhu asked in puzzlement.

"Brother Zhuzi, we could just bear with the smell of your fish."

"Look, you invited the old lady to eat with you, and sent fish soup to the second uncle's house."

"My mother-in-law is your elder after all. Look, she sent me to come to you to get a bowl of fish soup." Qin Huairu said as a matter of course.

He Yuzhu stared into her eyes coldly and said, "The elders of my He family are either buried in the ground or on the wall. The only one who is still alive is in Baoding."

"Today, there are only a few small hairtails, not even enough to fill our teeth, and a few mouthfuls of soup are not enough for us to drink, there is no juice left."

"What about you? Do you really want to drink fish soup? Turn left when you leave the hospital. There are a lot of fish in Chaoyang Market."

"But you have to hurry; if it's too late, they will close their stalls." He Yuzhu said and closed the door.

Qin Huairu stamped her feet and returned to Jia's house unwillingly. After a while, curses were heard from Jia's house.

The incident did not affect everyone's appetite. He Yuzhu kept teasing the old lady and ate dinner in laughter...
