Siheyuan: Five mouths waiting for food at the beginning

Sha Zhu went to work, and Ma Dongmei was packing her things, such as clothes and other things. There were all kinds of things in other buildings.

Yi Zhonghai packed his clothes and other things and went to say goodbye to the third uncle.

The third uncle was shocked when he heard the news. "What, Lao Yi, you are moving away too? Why so suddenly?"

"He Dong's wife is pregnant, and Zhuzi and his wife are going to take care of her. If I don't move, no one will know. You also know that I have no children. It was not easy for Zhuzi to agree to take care of me in my old age, so I have to move."

"No, will you have a place to live if you move there? As far as I know, He Dong's house was allocated by the company. His wife and a younger brother and sister live with them. It would be difficult for Sha Zhu and his wife to live there."

"It's not that house. Zhuzi said he has another house over there, and it's just me and him and his wife living there."

"When did this Sha Zhu buy another house without telling anyone? But congratulations, Old Yi. You have someone to rely on for the rest of your life. Sha Zhu is a man who keeps his word.

I am the only one left among the old brothers in our compound. Lao Liu left, Lao Xu moved out early, He Daqing also moved out, and now you are gone too.

To be honest, I have three sons, but my life is not as good as yours, Lao Yi, please come back often to visit me in the future."

"Old Yan, I don't have anything to give you, so I'll leave these bottles of wine to you. I'll come back to drink with you often."

"But before you go, let me give you a word."

"Old Yi, you say"

"Old Yan, you should exchange sincerity for sincerity and be less calculating. This is what Zhao Shanhe told the old lady, and what she gave to me before she died. I am giving it to you now."

The third uncle was stunned and muttered to himself, "Old Yi, you are too late. My sons are all good at calculating. I am afraid they can't be replaced."

Ma Dongmei locked the door, found a tricycle, loaded her things, and left with Yi Zhonghai.

The third aunt also sighed, "Old man, everyone in this courtyard has moved away, and we are the only ones left."

"Alas," the third uncle sighed deeply, "What a twist of fate, I want to drink some fried peanuts."

After Yi Zhonghai came over, he helped Ma Dongmei clean the room. He was used to being served by the aunt in the past. After the aunt passed away, he also learned how to clean over the years.

"Uncle, actually, there are quite a lot of old acquaintances in this community. Xu Damao, Jia Jia, Liu Guangtian, all of them are in this community. I'll take you to visit them later, so you won't be too bored then."

"They're all here, that's good."

In the afternoon, An Huan brought He Hua to see his mother-in-law. She was not at home yesterday, so he didn't see the marriage certificate and the household registration booklet had not been delivered. Today was a good opportunity to complain to his mother-in-law.

"An Huan, He Hua, why are you here?" asked the third uncle.

"Uncle, you are here at my father-in-law's house. Where else should I go if not here? Are you kidding me?"

"No, An Huan, He Hua, don't you know that your father-in-law and his family moved away, along with Old Yi, and they left this morning."

"Moving?" He Hua was confused.

The two men ran to the middle courtyard and saw that the houses were indeed locked.

"I'll call my mom. How could she care about me, her daughter, for not even telling me about such a big thing as moving?"

Soon the phone was connected. "What? You made a last-minute decision and forgot to tell me. Mom, why are you like this? Do you still have me in your heart?"

"You should at least tell me where you're moving to. An Huan and I didn't see anyone when we got back yesterday, and you moved directly today."

"Ah, sister-in-law is pregnant, really, then An Huan and I will go there right away."

He Hua hung up the phone and said, "Let's go to my brother's house. My sister-in-law is pregnant, so they moved over to take care of her. It's really ridiculous that they didn't even call in advance to let them know."

When the two of them arrived at He Dong's building, the whole family was there, and Sha Zhu had indeed returned early today.

When He Hua saw Sha Zhu and Ma Dongmei, she complained, "Dad, Mom, you are so mean. At least tell me if you're moving. Am I no longer your daughter if I get married?"

Sha Zhu said, "Wife, you didn't call He Hua and your son-in-law?"

"I was afraid that she would miss her and her son-in-law's classes. I had planned to call them in the evening, but they came back in the afternoon."

An Huan changed the subject. There was no need to keep on asking. "Brother-in-law, my sister-in-law is pregnant. Congratulations. I came here in a hurry today and didn't bring any gifts. I'll make it up to you later."

"An Huan, don't be so polite. Mom came over yesterday and said that you and He Hua were going to get your marriage certificate, right? Have you done it yet?"

"Hehe," An Huan excitedly took out the marriage certificate again, "I received it. I received it yesterday."

Yi Zhonghai said, "Zhu Zi, this is a double blessing. My daughter-in-law is pregnant, my daughter is married, and I have a good son-in-law like An Huan."

"Grandpa Yi, what you said is wrong. It's not a double happiness, it should be a triple happiness. Isn't it the father-in-law moving, and the joy of moving to a new house?"

"Ah, yes, yes, I am getting old and confused. Moving to a building is indeed a good thing. By the way, An Huan, why are you and He Hua holding a wedding banquet?"

"Grandpa Yi, this will probably take some time. We are still in school. When the time comes to hold the banquet, it will definitely be you, Mr. Qiao."

"Okay, then I'll just wait."

An Huan rolled his eyes and asked, "Father-in-law, where is your new house? How big is it?"

"It's also in this community, but not in this building. It's similar to this one. After all, they were both developed by your family, so the apartment layouts are quite similar."

An Huan was very happy in his heart. The house types were similar, so it also had three bedrooms. His parents-in-law would live in one, Grandpa Yi would live in one, and he and He Hua could live in one. He couldn't just sleep on the sofa.

"Grandpa Yi, father-in-law, mother-in-law, and brother-in-law, you see, these are three happy events, so you shouldn't have a few drinks, right?"

When it comes to drinking, Sha Zhu is the first to be happy. Ma Dongmei is strict and usually doesn't let him drink, but today it's just natural. "Okay, let's have a few drinks together later. An Huan, don't leave, just stay at our house."

An Huan was overjoyed. His goal had been achieved. His father-in-law was so awesome.

He Hua said, "Dad, An Huan is driving the car. We have classes tomorrow. How can we drink? We will leave soon."

An Huan quickly said, "He Hua, it's okay. We should celebrate this triple happiness. Stay at your father-in-law's place for one night. It's still in time for you to leave tomorrow morning."

He Hua twisted An Huan's thigh under the table and whispered, "Don't think I don't know your little thoughts. It's impossible."

Sha Zhu said, "That's right. Let's go have a few drinks with An Huan later and leave tomorrow. By the way, He Hua, your sister-in-law is pregnant. You have to hurry up. You're married now, so hurry up and have a baby."

An Huan wanted to hug Sha Zhu and kiss him a few times. He really was his dear father-in-law and was so awesome.
