Siheyuan Back to the 1950s

As soon as he got home and saw the expressions of several people in the house, Sun Dajiang already had the answer in his mind, that the results of the examination must be good.

Sure enough, when Sun Zhengguo saw his father coming back, he reported the results of the examination to him, and there were no surprises.

"Zhengguo, did you understand what Yan Bugui meant just now at the gate?"

"Hey hey hey!"

Seeing his father asking about this again, Sun Zhengguo sneered.

"Dad, you underestimate me too much! As soon as Old Yan tilted his butt, I knew what he was going to say. He just wanted me to give two red eggs to the people in the courtyard to bring good luck to everyone."

Seeing that his son understood everything, Sun Dajiang smiled and nodded.

Seeing his father nod in approval, Sun Zhengguo continued.

"But he didn't think about it. There are more than 50 households in the compound, so at least eggs are needed. Even if I had them, I wouldn't do it. After all, human hearts are hard to predict."

"Okay, Zhengguo, since you already know, I won't say much. But we still need to prepare some eggs. We have some relatives and friends here, right? Giving a few eggs to liven things up can also be considered a celebration."

"Da Jiang, the people in this courtyard won't say anything unpleasant, right? We've all sent you off before!"

Lin Wencui, who was standing by, said with some concern.

"You also said that that was in the past. What kind of year is it now? In the past, when there was something going on at home, everyone would set up a banquet. Do you think that happens now?"

However, although Sun Dajiang said this, he already had a solution in his mind that would satisfy both parties.

"Well, Wen Cui, since we have this rule before, we can't break it. Let's learn from Yi Zhonghai. Make dozens of steamed bread and give two to each household in the compound. That way, there will be no one to make sarcastic remarks."

"Okay! I'll do as you say. I'll steam it after lunch."

Lin Wencui agreed happily.

Although there were eggs at home, there were only about ten of them. Now they were given steamed bread instead, but there was plenty of corn flour at home.

At noon, after lunch, Lin Wencui started to get busy. Ning Xiaowei wanted to go up to help, but was chased out of the kitchen.

Making fifty steamed buns was not a lot of work, and Lin Wencui and her daughter finished them all in just one hour.

After finishing her work, Lin Wencui came to the main room and saw a few people chatting, so she asked.

"Dajiang, all the steamed buns have been steamed. They are neither too big nor too small, exactly fifty. When will you deliver them?"

"No hurry, wait until the steamed bread cools down and deliver it before dinner. You don't have to worry about it, just let Zhengguo go."

"By the way, Zhengguo, when are you going to visit your mother-in-law?"

After explaining everything to his wife, Sun Dajiang asked about his son again.

"Dad, my wife and I have already discussed that I will not be back for dinner tomorrow night. I will go to my mother-in-law's house to announce the good news."

"Okay! You can make your own arrangements. We won't wait for you for dinner tomorrow night."

Seeing that his son had already made arrangements, Sun Dajiang felt relieved.

Time passed quickly, and in the blink of an eye it was already past four o'clock in the afternoon, and it was almost time to make dinner.

Sun Zhengguo picked up a basket covered with a piece of clean gauze, which contained the steamed bread that he would deliver later. He started from the front yard and visited every household.

Originally, I didn't want my wife to go with me, but she insisted on going, saying that it would show her sincerity.

Seeing that he couldn't persuade his wife, Sun Zhenguo simply let her do what she wanted!

Because the two of them were making quite a lot of noise, the gatekeeper at the door, Yan Bugui, also noticed this situation. He stopped guarding the door and hurried home to wait, fearing that he would miss the opportunity to take advantage.

After a while, all the households in the front yard had received their gifts. Although they were not eggs, two steamed buns per household was still a considerable expense. Everyone gave their blessings and then accepted the gifts happily. In this day and age, who has a grudge against food?

After delivering the gifts to these families, Sun Zhengguo and his wife finally came to the Yan family.

"Is the Third Master at home?"

Hearing the shouting at the door, Yan Bugui, who had been waiting for a long time, quickly replied.

"I'm here! I'm here! Come in!"

The couple entered the house and found that all the Yan family members were there. After both sides greeted each other, Sun Zhengguo said.

"Uncle, Aunt, my wife is pregnant! My family doesn't have that many egg tickets, so I prepared two steamed buns for everyone to share in the good fortune. Please don't despise them."

After Sun Zhengguo finished speaking, he took out two steamed buns and handed them to Yan Bugui.

Although it was not the legendary egg, the steamed bread was also very good. Yan Bugui was quite satisfied with it. How could he dislike it? That would attract thunder and lightning!

At this time, Yan Bugui's old face was wrinkled with smiles, and he took the steamed bread tremblingly.

"Zhengguo, congratulations! I hope you will have a big fat boy next year. I will accept this steamed bread. It's just the right time to share in the good luck."

After receiving the steamed bread, Yan Bugui, in a happy mood, also said a few festive words.

"Xiao Wei! Third Aunt thinks you are a blessed person. Next year! You will definitely have a child for the Sun family."

"Thank you for your kind words! Thank you!"

Ning Xiaowei also expressed her gratitude.

After a few polite words, the couple said goodbye and left. After all, they still had two more courtyards to visit and couldn't waste time here.

After Sun Zhengguo and his wife left, Yan Jiecheng thought about his infertility, looked at the steamed bread on the table, and said with disdain on his face.

"Dad, look at how stingy this Sun family is. They are so rich, so giving two eggs is not too much. Now they give two steamed buns. Who are they insulting?"

Hearing his son's nonsense, Yan Bugui was immediately furious. What kind of conditions do you have? You actually look down on two steamed buns.

"Straighten your tongue first. What's wrong with two steamed buns? I'd rather have people insult me ​​like this every day! Since you look down on steamed buns, go eat sweet potatoes later."

When Yan Jiecheng heard him being asked to eat sweet potatoes, he instantly wilted.

"Dad, what are you doing? I'm telling the truth. Is his family really rich? I didn't say I don't want to eat steamed bread."

"Okay! Then let me ask you, no matter how rich the Sun family is, where did they get the egg coupons? Did they buy them on the black market? What if someone reports you? If you can't speak, then don't speak. No one will think you're dumb."

After Yan Bugui's scolding, Yan Jiecheng also felt ashamed and walked into the room silently.

"Hey!"

Watching his useless eldest son leave, Yan Bugui sighed.

He was thinking silently in his heart that the eldest son was already useless, so it seemed that he had to train the second and third sons more in the future.

at the same time.

In the central courtyard of the Jia family, Jia Zhang was also cursing.

"Humph! This Sun family is really worthless. For such a festive occasion, they only gave two steamed buns. Who are they trying to embarrass? I think they will give birth to a money-losing child next year."

"Mom, keep your voice down. If someone hears you, I'll find a reason to send you back to the countryside. Do you believe it?"

Sure enough, as soon as her son mentioned the three words "returning to the countryside", Jia Zhang instantly wilted. She quickly ran to the window and looked for a long time before she felt relieved.

There were many people who were unhappy that night, and their reasons were exactly the same: Your Sun family has plenty of money, shouldn’t you send us some eggs?

Human hearts are really unpredictable and the gullies are hard to resolve!

A small courtyard was like this. Considering the social environment at that time, it’s no wonder that later...!
