Comfortable life in Siheyuan

After work, I told Feng Yu about Shi Tou's work, and my wife jumped for joy.

"Now my parents can rest assured. Thank you, husband." Feng Yu said happily.

"Isn't this what I should do? We are all family, and as your brother-in-law, I should do some work." Liu Qingshan said with a smile.

"Well, you are right, but I still have to thank you. I will send the child to his grandparents in the evening and reward you well." Feng Yu blushed and put her mouth close to Liu Qingshan's ear and whispered.

Liu Qingshan shuddered when he heard this. Why did this kind of gratitude feel like a kind of ingratitude?

Riding on the bike, the two of them hurried home. On the way, they also stopped by Feng Yu's parents' house to tell them the good news.

Back at the courtyard, the third uncle stayed in the front yard as usual, watering the flowers while looking at the people who came back. He was like a camera with motion capture, with a gleam in his eyes.

"Qingshan, Xiaoyu is back!" The third uncle shouted with a smile on his face, watering the flowers in the yard with a kettle in his hand.

"Yes, Uncle Third, you are fiddling with these flowers and plants again!" Qingshan replied with a smile.

"Well, the weather has been nice these days, so we need to water them more."

The third uncle put down the kettle in his hand, wiped his hands, and then walked towards them enthusiastically. He glanced around the car, but didn't seem to find anything special. He said no more.

"See you later, Third Master!" "See you later."

When they reached the middle courtyard, Sha Zhu came to meet them.

"Qingshan, you're back. Come to my house for a drink tonight?" Sha Zhu said with a smile.

"Oh! Is there some good news? You look so happy!" Liu Qingshan asked with a smile.

"Hehe! My brother-in-law came to deliver a letter today, saying that Yu Shui is pregnant and can't come for a while." Sha Zhu said with a smile.

"That's good. Have you packed up Niu Niu's clothes and sent them over?" Liu Qingshan asked with a smile.

"It's still early. How can it be so fast? I want to send some nutritional supplements over in the next two days. It's not like we don't have anyone at my mother's house, right?"

"Okay, if you need any bones, pig's feet or something like that, I'll go tell my sister and she'll save some for you in advance." Liu Qingshan said with a smile.

"Okay, I'll leave this to you. I'll wait for you at home. Come over for a drink later. Xiaoyu can come too. Bring the child over to play with Niu Niu." Sha Zhu said enthusiastically.

"That's such a hassle! No need, just drink it!" Feng Yu said politely.

"Don't be polite to me. I also invited Nan Yi and his wife. We'll have some home-cooked dishes. It'll be lively. We haven't gotten together for a long time."

"Okay, let's go home and drop off our stuff and then come over."

Liu Qingshan parked the car, put down his briefcase, and went to the Intermediate Court with Xiaoyu, each holding a child.

"Hey! Here you are. Xixi, Xinxi, go and play with Brother Niu Niu." Sha Zhu greeted the two children with a smile on his face.

After a while, Nan Yi's family also arrived. Ding Qiunan, holding the child, also started chatting with the two women.

The three grown men swarmed into the kitchen.

"We just had a sudden idea today, so let's just eat something simple. We won't compromise!" Sha Zhuxian said modestly.

"We don't need to be so polite given our relationship, but I don't know whether Deputy Director Liu will agree or not. You can't be careless." Nan Yi joked with a smile.

"How could I forget about this? It's my fault. I'll make something better next time to make up for it." Sha Zhu also joked.

"Come on, you two. When have I ever cared about these things? Is there any wine at home? If not, I'll go back and get some." Liu Qingshan said with a smile.

"Of course we have to. How can I invite you to dinner without any wine? It's just some liquor. Don't be disgusted!" Sha Zhu said as he served the dishes.

"Chef Nan, do you want to show off your skills? Looking at Zhuzi's cooking skills, don't you feel like trying your hand at it?" Liu Qingshan began to tease Nan Yilai.

"It doesn't itch, not at all. Why should I touch it when there's something ready? I won't be lazy!" Nan Yi said with a smile.

After stewing another pot of soup, Sha Zhu asked everyone to come to the table quickly.

The food was served, and everyone was eating and chatting. During the meal, Sha Zhu talked about Yu Shui's pregnancy, and his face was full of joy.

Everyone was enjoying their meal when the third uncle pushed the door and walked in.

"Hey, are all the guys eating? Third uncle brought some wine to cheer you up." Yan Bugui didn't know if it was because he lost a lot of money last time, but now whenever someone's family has something good to eat, he always goes to join in the fun.

"No, Uncle San, we are not well prepared today and there are too many people, so I won't invite you to sit down. Take this bottle of wine and go back first. I will treat you next time." Sha Zhu walked over with a smile and politely declined the Uncle San.

It was because Tian Xiuyun had talked too much to Sha Zhu that he spoke more tactfully now, otherwise he would have started scolding him a long time ago.

"It's okay, Third Uncle, don't mind. We haven't gotten together for a long time. I just want to see you young people having fun and get closer to you!" The Third Uncle still didn't give up.

"It's really inappropriate. We prepared in a hurry today. Let's do it next time, next time." Sha Zhu said as he pushed people out.

With a "bang!", Sha Zhu quickly closed the door and wiped the sweat off his forehead.

"Why did I forget to lock the door just now? I deserve it!" Sha Zhu said regretfully.

"Hahaha!" The people in the room laughed even louder.

"The family next door won't come over again, right?" Liu Qingshan chuckled and teased.

"Who, are you talking about the Jia family?" Sha Zhu said while pointing a finger.

"Who else could it be except his family? When she saw your family cooking delicious food, didn't Aunt Jia often come over to order some?" Liu Qingshan said.

"No, now we don't have any contact with his family. After he went to their house several times to ask for money but didn't give us anything, he stopped coming." Sha Zhu said with a look of disgust.

"This third uncle has been eating and drinking for free recently. What's going on? He really has no respect at all?" Tian Xiuyun said puzzledly.

"I paid the Jia family five dollars in compensation last month, and it has been like this ever since. Now every day when I pass by the gate after get off work, I'm afraid he will search me." Sha Zhu said with a smile.

"The last time Xu Damao came back from a screening, the third uncle pestered him and talked for more than half an hour, and in the end he got a lot of mountain products. In the evening, he even brought a bottle of wine to Xu Damao's house for a meal." Liu Qingshan laughed as he spoke.

"Is that wine? We are all veteran actors now, and we can't even smell the wine anymore. I don't know how much water he added to it." Sha Zhu said with a smile.

"That wine bottle is quite old. It looks to me like it was used for weddings?" Liu Qingshan said.

"Oh my god, this guy is so stingy! This is really eye-opening." Nan Yi said in surprise.

"We knew that this person was stingy, but we didn't expect him to be so stingy. He is still a manager." Ding Qiunan was also a little surprised.

Everyone laughed and continued eating and chatting. Before they knew it, several hours had passed and the night was getting darker.

Liu Qingshan and Feng Yu took their children to say goodbye to everyone. Nan Yi and his family also left and went home to rest.
