Siheyuan: Five mouths waiting for food at the beginning

"Guangqi, what should we do?"

"Let's go back. That's it for today. We'll talk about it later." Liu Guangqi said helplessly. What a stupid teammate!

"Why did you come back with things again? Zhao Shanhe won't accept them? What about Lao Liu's workshop director?" said the second aunt as she looked at the father and son who had returned.

"Forget it, don't think about the workshop director, and don't offend him again. I have to go back tomorrow, and there are still a lot of things to do over there," said Liu Guangqi.

"Guangqi, quickly count how much money your father gave you?" said Liu Guangqi's wife, who was lying next to Liu Guangqi.

"Here, count it for yourself. I've been shopping all afternoon and feel more tired than after a day at work." Liu Guangqi handed the money to his wife.

"Guangqi, it's three hundred and fifty yuan. Your father is very generous to you. We spent less than a hundred yuan on buying clothes and shoes. It's worth it this trip." Liu Guangqi was awakened by his wife again.

The next morning was a weekend.

"Guangqi, why are you leaving so early? Stay a few more days. You haven't been back for several years," Liu Haizhong advised.

"Dad, I have to go. I have work to do there. If I leave early in the morning, I will be there in the evening. If you have anything, write to me. Don't lie to me again."

Liu Guangqi and his family of three left. The old couple Liu Haizhong were very reluctant to let them go, but they couldn't keep them.

"My dear, put on the new clothes that our son bought for you, and I'll put on my leather shoes too, and then we'll go for a walk in the yard."

Liu Haizhong was walking around in the yard in his new leather shoes, waiting for someone to come out and show off.

Seeing Yi Zhonghai coming out, Liu Haizhong walked up to Yi Zhonghai without saying a word, and bent down to wipe his leather shoes.

Yi Zhonghai said, "Old Liu, buy new leather shoes. Actually, you should have bought them a long time ago. You have such a high salary and your son is grown up. These new leather shoes look really good."

"Lao Yi, how do you know that this new pair of leather shoes was bought for me by my Guangqi? My eldest son is so kind that he came back to see me and bought me a pair of leather shoes and some clothes for his mother. You say this kid doesn't know how to save money at all," Liu Haizhong said with a smile

Yi Zhonghai was furious in his heart. His son had returned and it had touched his heart. "It's good to be filial. Congratulations, Old Liu. You will enjoy a happy life in the future."

"Old Yi, let me tell you that my Guangqi is very successful now. He will be the section chief when he goes back this time. And, my Guangqi..." Liu Haizhong started to show off.

"Lao Liu, I don't want to chat with you for now. There is no soy sauce at home. I'll go get some," Yi Zhonghai said quickly.

"It's okay, Lao Yi, I'll go with you. My family member Guangqi said that it's good for your health to exercise more. It's a good opportunity for us to go for a walk together," Liu Haizhong said

"Lao Liu, why don't you go shopping first? I didn't take the soy sauce bottle."

"It's okay, I'll wait for you"

Yi Zhonghai spent the whole afternoon showing off in his bangs. Second aunt was not idle either. She had a good relationship with third aunt, so she went to show off to her and made her very uncomfortable.

After Liu Haizhong left, Yi Zhonghai said to the aunt, "Old Liu is really something. He never stops showing off. He was hiding from everyone a while ago. Now that his eldest son is back, he's suddenly different.

But I think his third son will move out sooner or later, and by then he will end up like us, with no one to take care of him in his old age. He may even be worse off than us. At least we have our own family."

More than half a month has passed since Liu Guangqi left, and it is already mid-to-late February.

"Brother, take a look and see if there is anything else you want to take." Zhao Shanhu showed Zhao Shanhe the things he had packed.

"Take the radio with you, too. It's boring to stay in the hospital, and I'm anxious without the radio. Have you notified your parents-in-law?"

"I've notified you. My mother-in-law is going to take care of Bai Xue these days."

"Okay, let's go. The car is still waiting outside. You help your wife and Aunt Chen and I will take the things," said Zhao Shanhe.

three days later

"Shanhu, don't be anxious, sit down and relax for a while. You're walking around and making me dizzy," Zhao Shanhe said

"Brother, you are still blaming me. When my sister-in-law gave birth, you were more anxious than I was. You said that Bai Xue had been in there for a long time, but there was no movement."

After a few more hours of waiting, Zhao Shanhe felt like the days were passing by so slowly that he had smoked several cigarettes. It seemed that his wife Qin Jingru was indeed gifted.

When Zhao Shanhe wanted to go out to smoke again, the door of the delivery room finally opened, and the nurse came out holding the baby, shouting, "Who is the father of the child?"

"Shanhu, what are you daydreaming about? Hurry up and go up to see the children." Zhao Shanhe pushed the dazed Zhao Shanhu.

"Nurse, I am the husband of the woman in labor," Zhao Shanhu said

"Congratulations, it's a son."

Zhao Shanhu took the child carefully.

The next day, Zhang Baixue took her child out of the hospital.

When I got home, my grandmother and my second uncle were already waiting in the house. My second uncle smelled "Shanhu, what happened?"

"Grandma, Second Uncle, it's a son"

"Congratulations, old lady. You have another great-grandson. Are you happy?" said the second uncle.

"I'm so happy, it's worth it for me to die now, I can see my two great-grandchildren." The old lady couldn't stop smiling.

"What's so unlucky about the old lady dying? She only has two great-grandchildren. And my son, Shanhai, and the son of the third family are all ready to let you take care of their great-grandchildren," said the second uncle

"Uncle, when we were choosing the name, our father died. We didn't know what the next generation would be, so we decided on "An". What do you think we should do now?" Zhao Shanhe asked

"The next generation should be named 'Guang', Zhao Guang or something like that. You wouldn't know if Big Brother hadn't told you. Since you've already discussed it, let's just name them 'An' as you said. It has a good meaning, and the children of this generation will also use 'An'," said the second uncle.

"Shanhu, what's its name?" Zhao Shanhe asked

"Brother, why don't you get up? You are very knowledgeable," Zhao Shanhu said

"No, you are the child's father, how can you let your elder brother choose the name? The meaning is different. Didn't I say it at the beginning? The third character has "木" (wood). With just those few characters, it's still easy to choose a name."

"Brother, Second Uncle, please help me with some advice. Bai Xue and I have picked a few names, Amber, An Huai, and An Song, but we are still undecided."

"Let me tell you what I think. You and Bai Xue, the two of you have decided that the word locust is unlucky, and it means remembrance, like the locust flowers in Qinhuai Rujia. I don't recommend this.

Both the words "柏" and "松" are good. "柏" symbolizes integrity and strength, while "松" means longevity, health, prosperity and prosperity. You can choose one of these two."

"I think Ansong is good. The most important thing is that the child is healthy," said the old lady

"I think Amber is good. Boys should be upright and strong. Besides, the word "An" itself means peace and health. Like An Tong of the Shanhe family, the word "Tong" symbolizes perseverance." The second uncle also gave his opinion.

"Bai Xue, what do you think?" Zhao Shanhu asked his wife.

"Then call me Amber,"

"Okay, then let's call him Zhao Anbai, and how about the nickname Xiaohu?" Zhao Shanhu asked

"A nickname won't work. Your nickname is Huzi. It's a good idea to call your son Xiaohu, but have you ever thought about it? When your son grows up and your wife calls him Huzi, will it be you or your son who should respond?" Zhao Shanhe said
