Rebirth He Yuzhu stays away from troubles

After Xu's father and mother came to the courtyard to take care of Jia Zhang, Jia Zhang no longer dared to be so arrogant and domineering in the courtyard.

Jia Zhang thought that she was invincible around the courtyard with her weight and strength; plus, she had Old Jia to protect her, so if anyone dared to provoke or resist her, she would ask Old Jia to go find them at night.

Yes, in this era, there was a shortage of supplies, food and clothing, and most people were thin. In the early days of liberation, traditional thinking was deeply rooted, and most people still believed in ghosts and gods.

Because of the limitations of this era, Jia Zhang was provided with fertile soil and a stage to show and perform. If this happened in later generations, she would basically be sent to a mental hospital.

As Jia Zhang became more restrained, there were fewer and fewer quarrels in the courtyard, and the complaints in the compound gradually decreased.

There were fewer disputes among the people in the courtyard, which made Qin Huairu suffer. Although the food that was extorted back home was mainly eaten by Jia Zhang, Jia Zhang would leave some for Qin Huairu to satisfy her craving because she was pregnant with Jia's child.

Jia Zhang kept the family's money and went shopping every afternoon after waking up to eat secretly. She always had meat buns, braised pork... Whenever anyone asked her about it, her excuse was that she was aching and had spent the money on medicine.

The Jia family had a sewing machine, which was a rare commodity in those days. If they were a decent family or a decent person, they could supplement their family income by doing some sewing and mending around the courtyard.

The nature of Bai Lianhua determines her vision and thinking. What she wants should fall from the sky and be given to her for free.

As the He family brought chicken soup, bone soup, fish soup, chicken nuggets, and braised pork to the Liu family every now and then, Qin Huairu's eyes were fixed on Liu Guangxiu. She believed that the He family showed so much goodwill to the Liu family because the Liu family relied on Liu Guangxiu.

When Liu Guangxiu was in the Liu family, the second uncle and second aunt were on guard against her. The three Liu brothers wished she was air and were thankful that she did not bring them "father's love as high as a mountain" and tried to avoid her as much as possible.

Every family in the courtyard knew that her mother had died when she was born and her father had fled to Baoding, but she only wanted to eat white flour buns and meat. Her brother couldn't support her, so he called He Daqing back to send Liu Guangxiu to the Liu family for adoption. Such an ignorant and unruly child would not be loved by ordinary neighbors, and they would even warn their own children to stay away from Liu Guangxiu.

Look at Yan Jie Di, who is of the same age, and she treats Liu Guangxiu as invisible. Yan Jie Di is busy. In addition to going to school, she is also busy picking up coal cores, picking up scrap iron around the steel mill, and making handmade paper boxes and matchboxes to supplement the family income.

Decent families and their children would not want to pay attention to Liu Guangxiu, let alone play with her.

Confused, lonely and desolate Liu Guangxiu could only play with classmates who lived far away from the courtyard and who didn't know her background.

When Qin Huairu's eyes were fixed on Liu Guangxiu, Liu Guangxiu's heart also longed for the care and nourishment of Qin Huairu's words.

Unconsciously, Qin Huairu and Liu Guangxiu always interact with each other. Qin Huairu calls Liu Guangxiu "sister", which is so intimate and kind; Liu Guangxiu calls Qin Huairu "Sister Qin", and thinks Qin Huairu is so kind, virtuous, and considerate...

That day, Liu Guangxiu was standing by the pool watching Qin Huairu washing the Jia family's endless laundry, and the two of them were chatting idly.

Because the staff of Red Star Kindergarten usually get home half an hour to an hour earlier than the workers of the steel mill in the yard, when Ladi got home, she wanted to take advantage of the fact that most people in the yard had not returned yet and there were fewer people using the pool. She took out a wooden basin and placed it next to the pool, then went home to get some dirty clothes to soak in.

Liu Guangxiu looked at the so-called sister-in-law Liang Ladi who was busy going in and out with her work, and saw that she didn't pay any attention to him at all, let alone say a word of concern and care to him.

Liu Guangxiu looked at Liang Ladi, then at Qin Huairu. Liu Guangxiu thought to himself, "Sister Qin likes me so much and loves me so much... It would be great if Sister Qin was my sister-in-law. If Sister Qin became my sister-in-law, wouldn't I be able to do whatever I want in the He family? And the meat and big white steamed buns in the family... wouldn't I be able to eat whatever I want!"

Liu Guangxiu, who was 13 to 14 years old, felt that the more he thought about it, the better it was. The more he thought about those beautiful things, the more he felt that he should do something. Yes, he should take action... Let this so-called sister-in-law Liang Ladi leave the He family!

The aunties and ladies in the courtyard were chatting casually, and one of them was talking to Qin Huairu, who was playing the role of a filial and hardworking daughter-in-law.

Suddenly, "Ah, ah..." the screams of several aunts and grandmas in the courtyard penetrated the sky of the courtyard.

Several aunties who were talking to Qin Huairu saw Liu Guangxiu suddenly stand up, stood behind Liang Ladi, stretched out a hand, and pushed Liang Ladi who was sitting and rubbing clothes...

After get off work at the Red Star Steel Mill, He Yuzhu went directly to the Chaoyang Vegetable Market. As the weather turned cooler, He Yuzhu wanted to buy more cabbage and potatoes, which were easy to carry on a bicycle and could be stored in the cellar for later consumption.

As I was walking around, I saw a lonely middle-aged man wearing glasses in the corner of the vegetable market, looking reluctantly at two pigeons in the cage in front of him.

"Uncle, are you selling this pigeon?" He Yuzhu asked.

"For sale. Would you like to choose one?" The middle-aged man's reluctant tone was obvious.

"Is this a carrier pigeon?" He Yuzhu asked, looking at the pigeon.

"Yeah! I was thinking of selling it and going to get some meat."

"My family is so short of money," the middle-aged man said helplessly.

Yes! These days, there is a lack of oil and water. Pigeons don’t have much meat, not to mention that they are raised by myself, so I can’t even eat them.

"Uncle, I'd like to take the pigeons and cages away. How much do you think is a suitable price?" He Yuzhu asked.

The middle-aged man asked awkwardly, "Look, can I give you 3 or 4 yuan?"

He Yuzhu took out 5 yuan and stuffed it into his hand, picked up the pigeon cage, hung it on the handlebars, and turned around to look for cabbage and potatoes.

"Young man, you gave too much..." the middle-aged man shouted to me.

"Uncle, this pigeon is worth the price." He Yuzhu waved at him.

He Yuzhu returned to the courtyard carrying several large bags of cabbage and potatoes. As soon as he entered the front yard, hey... the old guy Yan Fugui was leisurely tending to the flowers!

"Zhu Zi, buy so many potatoes and cabbages!" Yan Fugui replied.

"The weather is getting colder, so I thought I'd buy some more and store them in the cellar to eat slowly."

As He Yuzhu spoke, he took out a pigeon weighing about 8 taels from the pigeon cage.

"Uncle, Aunt, can you help me clean up?"

"Zhu Zi, there's nothing inside this pigeon. It's not worth it for you to buy it!" Yan Fugui said with an expression of being cheated.

He Yuzhu glanced at him and ignored him. I shouted directly, "Auntie, are you busy?"

When the three aunts heard that it was He Yuzhu, they came out quickly.

He Yuzhu took a large cabbage and handed it to her.

"Third Auntie, I just bought some Chinese cabbage for your family to enjoy."

He Yuzhu raised the pigeon in his hand and said, "Third Aunt, help me clean it up. The old rules are: the head, tail and internal organs are yours."

The three aunts looked at me and seemed to be hesitant to speak. I thought to myself, "These three uncles and aunts, their appetites are getting bigger and bigger!"

The third aunt looked around and saw that there was no one around, so she came close to me and whispered to me what happened to Ladi in the afternoon.

He Yuzhu's face turned pale immediately and he turned quickly and went to the central courtyard.

"Third Aunt, you go ahead and do your work. I'll go home and clean up dinner."

He Yuzhu arrived at the door of his house nervously and anxiously, stopped his bicycle, and rushed into the house without caring about anything else.

"Brother Zhu, what's wrong with you? You look so anxious." Liang Ladi looked at me with concern and asked.

He Yuzhu felt relieved when he saw Liang Ladi, who was safe and calm.

Seeing Liang Ladi calmly and indifferently listening to the radio and doing her needlework, as if everything was normal, He Yuzhu understood...

He Yuzhu took the pigeons that the three aunts had cleaned up and went into the kitchen. He blanched the pigeons to remove the blood foam, put the pigeons, lean meat, ginger and cooking wine into a casserole, added an appropriate amount of water, and stewed them on the coal stove. When the water boiled, he added red dates and continued to stew slowly.

Looking at the white mist rising from the casserole, He Yuzhu's eyes became colder.

Liu Guangxiu, in your previous life, you knew that Qin Huairu had been sterilized by an IUD, but you still tried your best to get Sha Zhu to marry Qin Huairu...

Liu Guangxiu, in this life, you clearly knew that Liang Ladi was more than six months pregnant, yet you still had the guts to do it...

Liu Guangxiu, aren’t you lacking love from both your parents?

He Yuzhu will go and get it back for you...
