Rebirth of Siheyuan: Starting from escaping famine in 42

Chapter 144: Current Status of the Courtyard

Early in the morning of the first day of the new year.

After breakfast, Li Qingfeng did not go to wish his friends a happy new year, but went directly to the police station to be on duty.

Team 2 is on duty on the 29th and 30th of the New Year, and Team 1 is on duty on the 1st and 2nd of the New Year.

This is the nature of the police’s job. In order to protect people’s safety and property from harm, they can only take turns going home for the New Year.

Fortunately, nothing happened during the Chinese New Year, except for some trivial matters between neighbors that needed to be mediated.

 …

Time passes slowly day by day, and the weather gets warmer day by day.

The time has come to December 1950, 5.

People also took off their thick cotton coats and trousers and put on thin clothes.

"Captain, what do you think that old lady is thinking? Isn't her daughter-in-law about to give birth? She has to find a shaman to perform the ritual. Isn't this feudal superstition?"

Ma Jun took out a cigarette, handed one to Li Qingfeng, and lit one for himself, then said, "I think that son is also a mama's boy. He listens to his mother in everything. He is such a loser."

Li Qingfeng smoked a cigarette and replied with a smile: "The older generation's thinking has not changed yet. Our police station should discuss with the street office and strengthen ideological education for these older generations and publicize new laws and regulations."

The old lady and mama's boy that Li Qingfeng and Ma Jun were talking about were Jia Zhang and her son Jia Dongxu, who lived in No. 95 Nanluoguxiang.

Since Yi Zhonghai already had a child, he did not accept Jia Dongxu as his apprentice. He is still an apprentice. The Jia family is not living a happy life now, so Jia Zhang just found a daughter-in-law in her mother's village.

Jia Dongxu's wife was not someone to be trifled with either. She took out all Jia Zhang's anger on her on Jia Dongxu.

Because of this, Jia Zhang cursed at home and in the yard every few days, making the yard full of smoke and chaos.

As her daughter-in-law was about to give birth, Jia Zhang found a shaman to perform the dance in the yard, saying that this would help her give birth to a boy.

When the three uncles in the courtyard find out, they will definitely not agree!

But who was Jia Zhang? She sat on the ground, slapped her thighs with her hands, and began to summon spirits.

The three uncles got a headache when they saw this. They couldn’t do anything about it, but who could?

After the three of them discussed it, they asked the people in the yard to notify the street office and the police station.

The final result was that Jia and Zhang went to the street office for a month-long ideological education, during which time they were not allowed to go home and had to live in a cowshed.

Those who perform shaman acts will have their homes searched and will be sent to a farm for three years of forced labor.

When Jia Zhang left, the residents in the courtyard all applauded. This shows how unpopular and annoying Jia Zhang was in the courtyard.

The two children of Yi Zhonghai were well taken care of by his wife and they would go to play with He Yushui all day long.

It seems that the Yi and He families have a good relationship.

Even though he had a child, Yi Zhonghai was still taking care of the deaf old lady. No one knew what he was thinking. Was he after the deaf old lady's property, or was he trying to instill in the children in the yard the idea of ​​respecting the elderly?

There has been no change in Liu Haizhong's family. He still dotes on his eldest son as always, and when he has nothing to do, he hits the second and third sons with his belt.

Li Qingfeng talked to Liu Haizhong twice about this, but it was of no use. After he left, Liu Haizhong continued to fight as usual.

When Liu Guangqi just entered high school, Liu Haizhong was looking forward to his eldest son being admitted to a technical secondary school and becoming a high-ranking official to bring honor to the family and win face for him.

The second and third children were still little kids. They were either on their way to be beaten or being beaten all day long.

There have been great changes in Xu Damao's family. Ever since our party's troops took over Sijiu City, Lou Bancheng has dismissed all the servants in the house. If he wants to eat something good, he can only ask He Daqing to come to his house and cook a meal.

Xu Damao's mother does some housework and takes care of the family at home.

His father was a capable man and found a job as a movie projectionist in a cinema.

Xu Damao is still a junior high school student, and he still doesn't get along with He Yuzhu. They have a small quarrel every day and a fight every three days. However, Xu Damao is not as strong as He Yuzhu, so he gets beaten every time and he can only argue verbally.

He Daqing is now working as a cook in the kitchen of a steel rolling mill. He Yuzhu is still learning cooking outside, coming back one day a week, and is almost completing his apprenticeship.

He Yuzhu's mother is in good health. She stays at home to take care of He Yushui when she has nothing to do, or she takes odd jobs for Hu Huochaihe at the street office. They live a better life than ordinary people.

He Yushui was very cute when she was a child, with a chubby face. I don’t know how she became as skinny as a bamboo pole when she grew up.

He Daqing's background problem was also solved. He just learned the Tan family cuisine and was not a head farmer. His background was just a hired farmer.

Speaking of class background, some time ago, Li Qingfeng processed urban household registration for Qin Huairu and her child, so that when rationing and vouchers are implemented in the future, they don't have to worry about having no food to eat.

His marriage certificate with Wu Lirong and his house deed were also replaced with a new house deed and a new marriage certificate at the street office. For this purpose, Li Qingfeng went to a photo studio and asked someone to come to his house to take a few photos of his family and children as a souvenir. Even Qin Huairu and his brother's children were no exception and took a few photos of them separately.

Yan Zhaodi was born not long ago in Yan Bugui's family. As the family had more children, he began to calculate the family's food and drink. He often said in front of his family: "If you don't calculate, you will be poor."

The children at home are either going to school or staying at home. Is it too early for Yan Jiecheng to take a part-time job and marry Yu Li?

The second son also changed his name and was officially called Yan Jiefang.

In the end, the deaf old lady may have let it go! With the care of Yi Zhonghai's family, she no longer cared about anything and stayed in the house all day long, although she never cared about anything.

Anyway, in Courtyard 95, there were only Jia Zhang who made some noise from time to time, Liu Haizhong who beat the children, and Yan Bugui who was scheming all day long. There was nothing else.

If it weren't for Jia Zhang, the courtyard would look quite harmonious.

Li Qingfeng didn't care much about the affairs of this courtyard. He couldn't take care of the children at home! He didn't have time to worry about their affairs.

If no one breaks the law in Yard 95, I can just watch it for fun in my spare time.

If someone breaks the law, he has no choice but to arrest them, and he will do his job impartially and show no mercy. After all, they are just ordinary neighbors and just nodding acquaintances.

The letter written by my younger brother was also sent home after the Chinese New Year.

After reading the letter, Li Qingfeng gave it to Qin Huairu and told her that the child's name was given by his younger brother Li Qingshan himself.

His name is Li Weidong, but he hasn't had any home visit leave in the past one or two years and can't come back, so Qin Huairu has to take care of him herself.

The letter stated that if Qin Huairu could not be taken care of by herself, she would ask her sister-in-law and eldest brother to worry more and help take care of Qin Huairu and Li Weidong.

After receiving the letter, Li Qingfeng also began to reply, writing in detail about the situation at home and the situation of his Li Qingshan's children.

When sending the letter, Li Qingfeng also added a photo of Zhang Qin Huairu and the child.

This way, when my younger brother receives the photo, he will also have something to think about.
