Siheyuan: Learning to be the sixth

After sweeping Hu Zi's grave, the families prepared to disperse.

"Brother, we will celebrate this year in our courtyard. Although Ma Hua's parents are very partial to him, we can't just ignore him since he is here."

He Yuzhu really doesn't want to get involved in the Ma family's mess anymore. He believes that Ma Hua and Ji Juan can handle it.

Hu Zi and Ran Qiuye had a simple idea. They didn't want to let Ran's father and mother and Lao Cao spend the New Year alone, so they decided to spend it in Lao Cao's yard.

As a generation grows older, it will shoulder more responsibilities.

"Okay, let's get together on the first day of the new year. Now go back and be safe on the road."

"Okay, big brother~"

Watching the two families leave, He Yuzhu felt a little lost. When people reach a certain age, they like to be lively. He Yuzhu found that his mentality was a little old, which was not good.

As a couple for many years, how could Lou Xiaoe not know what He Yuzhu was thinking? She held He Yuzhu's big hand with her own small hand and said jokingly:

"Zhu Zi, we'll see each other again tomorrow, it won't be that late..."

He Yuzhu smiled slightly.

"Wife, I am happy. I can cook less dishes this year. It will save me a lot of trouble."

When they got home, although the four little ones were grown up and the eldest and second child were going to take the college entrance examination next year, they still had a childish heart and took the third and fourth child with them to "do evil things" with firecrackers.

No, just listen

"Bang~"

"Whoosh~"

The food bowls of Dahua and Erhua’s great-grandchildren flew into the sky.

Despite this, the two dogs still looked at the four people blankly.

"What's going on? It's New Year's Day?"

For this reason, the moment the dog bowl fell to the ground, the two dogs picked it up and ran away.

After running away, he would stop and look back from time to time to see if he couldn't afford to offend the foursome.

The meaning is obvious: "If we can't afford to offend, we can afford to hide."

The four of them looked at Dahua and Erhua, who had broken the lifespan record of dogs in Tongluo Ancient Alley, and said in unison: "It's better not to yell at Dahua and Erhua, or they'll be scared again."

Dahua and Erhua's eyes and ears had almost failed, only their noses could still feel a little. They also felt that their little master was coming to see them, so they hummed with all their strength, which was considered a greeting.

The four of them were feeling sad.

"Children, come back soon for the reunion dinner~"

Although the food at ordinary times is good, the reunion dinner feels especially delicious. The four of us jog along the way, and when washing our hands, we don’t forget to splash water on each other, which is very lively.

He Yuzhu and Lou Xiaoe looked at the four children who were very close to each other. Lou Xiaoe smiled and said: "I hope they can still have such a good relationship after they get married and start their own families."

He Yuzhu was not worried at all about his wife's concerns.

"Wife, we have to trust our parents for half of our lives and our siblings for a lifetime."

"Well, my son and daughter will definitely not have this kind of problem. I gave birth to them and I am proud of them."

Lou Xiao'e's emotions came and went quickly. He Yuzhu smiled and said nothing, but his face was extremely gentle.

There is no Spring Festival Gala on New Year's Eve these days, but He Yuzhu still turned on his TV and radio at home to make it lively.

The reunion dinner lasted until about eight o'clock, and the children from several families gathered together to call the four members of the He family to go out and play.

He Yuzhu could see that the four of them couldn't sit still any longer, so he waved his hand and said, "Be careful when you go out to set off firecrackers, and don't forget to come back before twelve o'clock."

"I know, Dad*4"

After the children left, the adults finished their meal quickly.

Since the dumplings had been wrapped in advance, Lou's father and Yi Zhonghai went to play chess to kill time, while He Yuzhu and Lou Xiaoe pulled Aunt Yi and Lou's mother to play mahjong.

You know what, He Yuzhu hasn’t played for many years and his hands are itching to play.

You know what, this stuff is contagious. Damao and the others, who had come to the He family to play, also became addicted. Fortunately, He Yuzhu's family had a lot of mahjong tables, so they opened several tables at once. The sounds of playing cards, the military advisors' commands, and the shouting almost blew the roof off.

As twelve o'clock passed, fireworks rang out in the sky above the He family.

"Eighties, here we come~"

The sixth day of the Lunar New Year is the day when the Red Star Steel Rolling Mill starts operations. New Year, new atmosphere. He Yuzhu had already asked the finance department to prepare red envelopes. The money was not much, but one for each person, commonly known as the start-of-work red envelope.

We have just returned to work and everyone has not yet recovered from the post-holiday syndrome. Before the 15th, the factory is still mainly focused on cleaning and maintenance.

On the eighth day of the first lunar month, after many twists and turns, Zhenchi Dessert House is finally opening for business.

After the New Year, Xu Damao organized a wave of publicity, and also invited a yangko troupe that had not appeared for many years, so it was extremely lively.

Commissioner Li also presented Lou Xiaoe and his team with a license worth a fortune on behalf of the government.

Others may not know, but He Yuzhu, who is well-versed in history, knows that there was still controversy over reform and opening up at that time, and Commissioner Li was under tremendous pressure to come here in person.

"Zhu Zi, I'm leaving now. I still have a lot of work to do."

"Uncle Li, I'll come to your house for a meal some other day~"

"Good~"

The huge commotion attracted a lot of people. Although the pastries inside were not cheap, they were mainly novel in style, and there was also a tasting session.

In addition, the counter was built by He Yuzhu himself with personal training and drawing of the blueprints, and its main focus is on cleanliness and hygiene, so it would be strange if the business was not booming.

Originally, all ten ovens were running at full capacity, and it seemed like there was a lot of stock. Plus, there were some snacks made using traditional techniques, so Lou Xiaoe and her friends were worried that they wouldn't be able to sell them all, and how long would it take them to eat them.

It seems that there are not enough products to sell now, really not enough products to sell. It’s only two o’clock and the goods are gone.

The crowd had no choice but to apologize to the customers who didn't buy the products, and said that they would increase production tomorrow, and then they dispersed.

The next part is the same old routine, the part of counting money. I won’t write about it anymore. I won’t write about it anymore. I am a little envious of those who wrote about it. Woo~ woo~

Having made money and seeing hope, the ladies waved their hands and invited these grown men to have a meal at Donglaishun, which is a perfect match with hotpot in winter.

After eating and drinking, they went back to their own homes and went to their own beds. After a friendly discussion, Lou Xiaoe laid on He Yuzhu's chest and said softly: "Zhuzi, thank you."

"Wife, let's be more practical and use our mouths~"

Lou Xiao'e knew that her man had a big need, and today was a happy day, so she shrank her head.

……

Early in the morning, He Yuzhu washed his face with cold water, stretched his waist, and felt refreshed.

"Zhu Zi, open the door~ I'm here to wish you a happy new year~"

Hearing Liu Ruilong's voice, He Yuzhu quickly opened the door.

"Brother Liu, why don't you come up after the 15th?"

"Oh, don't mention it, brother. The old man thinks I'm an eyesore."
