Rebirth He Yuzhu stays away from troubles

The night in the courtyard is so peaceful, refreshing and makes people yearn for the beauty of the world!

What Liu Guangxiu did in the afternoon did not cause any ripples in the Liu family.

But it is understandable if you think about it: in this era, normal families have more than 3 children, and families with more than 10 children are also common. Parents are basically busy in order to support the family and manage the housework. How can they have the energy to keep a close eye on their children every day? Children are basically free to go, and it’s good enough if they can see them at mealtime or bedtime.

Looking at Liang Ladi sleeping as soundly as a baby on the bed, He Yuzhu's body and mind seemed to be deeply purified.

The next day, He Yuzhu and Liang Ladi went to work together as usual. He Yuzhu rode his bike and chatted with Liang Ladi who was sitting on the back seat.

"Lady, you've been pregnant for more than six months. It will definitely become more and more inconvenient for you to clean the house and wash clothes."

"Brother Zhu, I just need to be careful. If there's any heavy work, I can call my mom and my brothers to help!" Liang Ladi said with a laugh.

"Ladi, it's great to have you! Our mother and our brothers all know how much they love you."

"That depends on who raised my younger brothers. They become so happy just by looking at me..." Liang Ladi said proudly.

"Ladi, this is what I think: Third Uncle Yan Fugui's family often helps us prepare food, and you are familiar with them."

"We can ask the third aunt of Yan Fugui's family to help clean the house and do the laundry."

"This way, there will be someone in the hospital to take care of you, and I can feel more at ease! After all, the deaf old lady is old, her reaction has become slow, and I can't help with many things."

"I thought of giving you 3-5 yuan a month. We can build a good relationship now. I'm sure you can still use Auntie when you are in confinement after childbirth."

"Wife, what do you think?" He Yuzhu asked with concern.

"Brother Zhu, you decide. I'll listen to you." Liang Ladi said gently.

"After get off work today, I will go to discuss it with my uncles and aunts..." He Yuzhu said happily.

After work, I went to Chaoyang Vegetable Market and bought a 8-pound grass carp, a few pounds of bean sprouts, peppers and other ingredients.

Back at the courtyard, as expected, the Third Uncle was watering the flowers. Seeing that He Yuzhu had bought such a big fish today, Yan Fugui said, "Zhuzi, come to my house tonight, and let's have a drink together?"

"Third Uncle, great! I also have something to ask you and Third Aunt!"

He Yuzhu brought the fish and other ingredients into Yan Fugui's house and said, "Uncle, please ask Aunt to come along. I will tell you what I want to ask of you."

Yan Fugui called the third aunt, and the third aunt stared at the big grass carp, not knowing what He Yuzhu was going to do.

"Uncle and aunt, I want to ask you to help us clean the house and do the laundry." He Yuzhu looked at them embarrassedly.

"Zhu Zi, your third aunt is free, it's just... this... that..." Yan Fugui stammered with a hint of meaning.

Seeing him like this, He Yuzhu smiled and said, "Uncle, I won't let Aunt work for nothing. I'll give you 5 yuan a month... What do you think?"

"Zhu Zi, it's settled then. I'll go to your house now and help you." The third aunt agreed eagerly.

"Third auntie, don't worry. When there is work in the future and Ladi gets off work, she can just call you." He Yuzhu said.

"Zhu Zi, Uncle San knows that you have good intentions. Look at my 27.5 yuan a month. It's not easy to support a large family."

"Zhu Zi, Third Uncle is grateful for your kindness, thank you..." Yan Fugui said with red eyes.

"Third aunt, please pack the ingredients first. I'll go home and tell Ladi that I'll send her some food later and tell her not to cook dinner." After saying this, He Yuzhu pushed the cart home.

When He Yuzhu went home and told Liang Ladi about it, Liang Ladi said happily, "Well, I got home from get off work at about 4 o'clock, and it was just in time for Auntie San to come and clean up, and you got home from get off work too."

He Yuzhu brought some eggs and other ingredients to the third uncle's house and saw that the third aunt was really efficient. The fish had been prepared and drained, and the bean sprouts had been washed and soaked.

He Yuzhu stood the fish upright and cut open its back with a knife to make it easier to take out the fish meat. He separated the fish meat from the fish bones and sliced ​​the fish meat into thin slices one by one with a knife. He chopped the fish bones into pieces and cut the fish head in half for later use.

Add a little cooking wine, salt, an egg white and a little starch to the fish fillets, mix well and marinate for later use; also add cooking wine, an egg white and starch to the fish bones and fish heads, mix well and set aside.

Heat the pan, add oil, stir-fry the bean sprouts until cooked, add a little salt, and put the fried bean sprouts into 2 large soup bowls from Yan Fugui's house.

Heat the pan, add oil, add Sichuan peppercorns and Sichuan peppercorns and fry until fragrant. Remove most of the fried Sichuan peppercorns and Sichuan peppercorns and set aside.

Add dried red pepper and fry until fragrant, add bean paste and stir-fry until red oil comes out, add water, add the beaten scallion knots, add the fish head and fish bones and bring to a boil.

After the water boils, use chopsticks to put the fish fillets into the pot one by one. Pour the cooked fish fillets into 2 large soup bowls filled with bean sprouts, and sprinkle with minced garlic and chopped peppercorns.

Wash the pot, add cooking oil, put in dried red peppers, fry the peppers until fragrant, then turn off the heat. Pour the hot oil and peppers on the chopped garlic and peppercorns.

Yan Fugui was stunned, thinking, "Why haven't I seen this dish before?"

The aroma of boiled fish spreads from the nose to the heart, leaving a lingering aftertaste and making people feel the joy that food brings.

Yan Fugui thought in his mind: "These two big pots of food, plus the steamed bread at home, are enough for several people to eat, and there is still a lot more. As for that bottle of wine, I don’t know how much water is mixed in it. This won’t do. Should I think of a way? It’s impossible to buy it, that would be a big loss…"

"Yes, doesn't Liu Haizhong like to drink a little wine? There must be wine at home."

"Zhu Zi, I think there are too many dishes today!"

"Third uncle, since you are usually close to the Liu family, should I go and call the old man from the Liu family as well?"

"Uncle, this is your home, you can do whatever you want." He Yuzhu said casually.

"Knock knock..." "Who is it?" asked the second aunt, opening the door.

"Second uncle, are you drinking?" Liu Haizhong looked at Yan Fugui in confusion.

"Second uncle, have you ever tried boiled fish?"

"Zhu Zi cooked some boiled fish at my place. I heard that this is the dish used to entertain leaders in the canteen of your steel mill."

Liu Haizhong didn’t understand anything else, but he heard “dishes for entertaining leaders”.

Liu Haizhong stood up with red eyes, picked up a small plate of peanuts, held the 2/3 remaining bottle of wine, and followed the third uncle to the front yard.

He Yuzhu took two steamed buns and a bowl of fish meat and gave them to Liang Ladi, and told her: Liang Ladi, you will have a drink at the third uncle's house and then go home.

When He Yuzhu returned to the third uncle's house, the second uncle Liu Haizhong and the third uncle Yan Fugui were already seated and the glasses of wine were full.

I didn’t see the three aunts. They should be in the kitchen, eating with their three little ones.

"After three rounds of wine and five flavors of dishes, the conversation started.

He Yuzhu said under the influence of alcohol: "Uncle San, you are this, I give you a thumbs up."

"The child in the compound who doesn't know the third uncle's family is well-behaved and sensible. Look at Yan Jiedi, the younger sister of the Yan family. Besides going to school, she is either picking up coal cores or scrap iron around the steel mill, or making handmade paper boxes and matchboxes to supplement the family income."

"Uncle, you are a good housekeeper!"

The third uncle said proudly, "Although my salary is not high, my children are really well-behaved and sensible."

The second uncle looked at He Yuzhu with a red face and a thick neck, meaning "Director He, you should praise me too!"

He Yuzhu pretended to be drunk and looked at the second uncle and said, "The second uncle is really good at educating children."

"When Guangqi graduates from technical secondary school, he will be a leader!"

"But the second master has selfish motives!"

"Director He, I am selfless and will not take a single penny from the people." Liu Haizhong said nervously.

Hearing this, the third uncle secretly frowned and thought to himself, "Old boy, are you talking about me?"

He Yuzhu continued: "Look at Yan Jiedi, and then look at your Liu Guangxiu."

"Your Mitsuhide is either hanging out outside or hanging out at the Jia family's quadrangle."

"Who in this compound doesn't know what the Jia family is?"

"Second uncle, you have to treat them equally! You can't just take care of your son and ignore your daughter!"

"Director He, you misunderstood. I'm afraid that I'm too controlling. Aren't I worried that you'll be unhappy?" Liu Haizhong explained with a red face and thick neck.

"Uncle! Liu Guangxiu is your family member and has nothing to do with our He family. You can't make excuses."

"Second uncle, third uncle, come on... continue..."

The food was delicious and the wine was enjoyable. The second and third uncles looked at He Yuzhu lying on the table with a look of satisfaction.

The second uncle and the third uncle helped He Yuzhu back home.

After they left, He Yuzhu sobered up. He was chatting with Liang Ladi when he heard a "pa, pa..." sound.

In the quiet courtyard, there were intermittent sounds of adults disciplining their children:

There was the sound of "snapping, snapping... snapping, snapping..." of a belt swinging.

There are adults scolding children, "It's time to go out after school, are you still hanging out?"

"Learn from Yan Jie Di. Do you know how to make handmade paper boxes and matchboxes when you have time?

There was a girl's cry of "Ahh...", and finally intermittent sobbing sounds were heard...

The moonlight sprinkles on the courtyard at night like water, and the night sky is full of stars.

Tonight is so beautiful...
