Siheyuan: Rebirth 52, intercepting Qin Huairu

Qiannan Province

When Jia Haoyun found Xiang Guoan, he saw this guy standing silently under a tree near the car training ground, his heart full of sorrow.

Approaching quietly, Jia Haoyun heard Xiang Guoan mumbling things like "shameful", "too embarrassed to face people", and even "Senior sister no longer pays attention to me".

Originally, Jia Haoyun just laughed softly.

I didn't expect that my senior brother Xiang Guoan would have such a mood. He was just like a frustrated teenager, with a face full of frustration and sadness.

He called out softly:

"Brother, what are you doing? I've been looking for you for a long time.

It's almost time to get off work, let's go! We're going to my uncle's house.

"

Xiang Guoan was thinking intently at this time, but when he heard the sound his first reaction was to "avoid it". He only breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Jia Haoyun.

He asked, “Junior brother, you really scared me.

Am I embarrassed? Are the people in the team talking about me? What should I do? "

Jia Haoyun did not expect that his senior brother would first think of his senior sister's reputation and was afraid of causing her unnecessary trouble.

He comforted the other party and said:

"No, you're worrying too much! This is actually normal. After all, Senior Sister didn't reject you. Judging from your expression, let's just go for a drink.

Jia Haoyun comforted him like this.

He said, “That’s right, Senior Sister didn’t agree to you, but she didn’t deny it either.

Maybe she will agree soon! Since she hasn't refused, it means I still have a chance.

"Xiang Guoan found an outlet for comfort for himself.

“Brother, you can talk to your wife later.

Because she has a close relationship with the senior sister, it would definitely be feasible for the wife to greet the senior sister first and ask her what she thinks, and think about other possible ways.

"Jia Haoyun gave him an idea.

“In addition, if we really can’t do it, we can ask Dad to ask Uncle Bai for help. The two families are very familiar with each other, so the chances are not small.

"He made another suggestion, and Xiang Guoan nodded in agreement.

Come to think of it, the situation between the senior sister and him was not serious, and Uncle Bai and Aunt Bai also had a good attitude towards Xiang Guoan, and the two families had a close relationship.

If the whole family supports it, it will be relatively easy to accomplish.

And with the help of my wife as a bridgemaker, everything became naturally not a problem.

then:

He laughed, "Haha, Junior Brother, what you said makes sense! Why did you bring it up only now? I feel a little embarrassed to talk about it.

"

He replied, "Don't blame me! But even so, after all, Senior Sister didn't explicitly deny you, so how did you lose face? Maybe Senior Sister is shy.

"

Xiang Anran thought again, yes, maybe Senior Sister is shy! His mood improved greatly, and he immediately looked smart, no longer as gloomy as before.

Haha! "Where's my Xiaobai?" If my senior sister heard you saying this, she would defeat you with a shoulder attack.

Afterwards, Jia Haoyun and the excited Xiang Guoan left. Although it was not yet time to get off work, they still had to wait for a while.

Jia Haoyun also needed to go back to the office to get the small gift from the Bank of China, which he had prepared in advance.

The master's wife is pregnant, and the eggs and snacks sent last time have probably been consumed, so he prepared some more food, and he also needs to prepare some snacks when going to the master's house for a drink.

Xiang Guoan agreed to this approach as soon as he heard it, and suggested that they go there directly after work, each prepare some gifts, and meet at the master's house.

Jia Haoyun had planned to buy some cooked meat yesterday, but was unable to do so as he was told that it was sold out very early.

Nowadays, the supply of supplies on the market is insufficient, and long queues form in the morning for most items, with many people competing for limited resources.

Nevertheless, due to its own space, the supermarket still has a large amount of cooked meat available.

But considering the disturbance to Ma Yunpeng, he chose not to disturb the partner who had helped him for the time being.

However, Ma Yunpeng took the initiative to say that there was no problem and was willing to continue helping him.

When he learned of Jia Haoyun's material needs, Ma Yunpeng sent another pound of sesame oil and twenty pounds of flour, saying that any additional supplies would not be enough to meet the needs - these items could not be purchased even with tickets.

Jia Haoyun decided not to bother about this minor inconvenience. There were plenty of supplies in the space supermarket, so he didn't need to bother Ma Yunpeng for help often.

Despite thinking so, Ma Yunpeng still tactfully told the people to put the items into his large backpack and secretly take them out using ** to avoid unnecessary public questioning. This kind of behavior is very common, as everyone has their own network of connections.

Carrying his travel bag, Jia Haoyun looked forward to his master's return, and couldn't help but sigh that signs of material shortages had begun to show.

It was not until yesterday that Jia Haoyun discovered the beginning of this problem.

Originally, Lady Jia was in charge of purchasing food for the family, so this kind of situation did not attract attention.

When Jia Haoyun accompanied his master back to his home, his master's wife and daughter ** had already arrived.

** was very excited to see Jia Haoyun. Besides being excited, he was also looking forward to hearing interesting stories.

Naturally, whenever Jia Haoyun visited her, he would always bring her some delicious food.

Mr. Jia Haoyun ** handed over the candy ball, and then handed the various items in the travel bag to the master's wife one by one.

Among them are more than 30 eggs and some wild delicacies and dried fruits, such as fungus and chestnuts, which are still in abundant stock in his own supermarket.

This time I went to Xiaowang Village where the harvest was relatively large, so I specially gave some to my wife, including a bag of peach cakes as a special gift for her.

Then there was a bottle of white wine and some side dishes, plus a few large loaves of bread bought from the cafeteria for lunch.

He knew that pregnant women should not overeat, so he brought some spare items with him. He then made some simple meals, and only needed to heat up some bread to meet his needs.

"Dayun, you brought so many things with you. It's not easy to buy things now. Many stamps cannot be bought.

"Master Zhang Yuling saw Jia Dayun taking so many things and glanced at Wang Jianshe next to him and said.

Wang Jianshe was also a little embarrassed. He had just brought a suitcase when he came in from Jia Dayun's place, and he didn't know there were so many things in it.

This is a lot of stuff that is really hard to come by.

"It's okay, Sister Yuling, I can find a way to get these, and you must be in need of them now.

We don’t understand much.

" Zhang Yuling asked Jia Dayun not to call her Master anymore, saying that calling her Master made her look too old.

Bai Yanhui and Xiang Anping always called her Sister Yuling, so Jia Dayun also changed her name.

After thinking about it, she finally accepted it.

These things are indeed needed, and eggs are indispensable.

Most of the flour and rice in the house are eaten by her and Niuniu. If she weren't pregnant, she would probably give it all to Niuniu.

The problem is that the grains they use are not enough, so their family members have to share some with them every month, and the adults in the family are not very young.

It’s okay to eat less whole grains a few times a month, but not enough protein-rich foods like chicken.

As a person who loves children, even though she was pregnant with another baby, when she saw the look in Niu Niu's eyes when she looked at the egg, she couldn't help but decide to leave the egg to her.

Fortunately, the eggs that Jia Dayun sent her last time came to the rescue in time, otherwise she didn’t know whether the baby she was carrying would have enough nutrition.

However, this difficult situation is very common nowadays, and theirs is considered to be a relatively good family situation.

In the past few days, many needed goods have become more difficult to buy. Even if you have a ticket, you cannot purchase them. Everyone is busy with work and has no time to queue up to buy. I heard that you have to queue up in the morning to buy what you want.

Wang Jianshe looked at it and felt ashamed.

He has been very busy at work these days, especially during those two or three months when he worked overtime almost every day and neglected his wife.

He solves the problem of eating at work, while his pregnant wife Zhang Yuling has to take care of various family matters.

Fortunately, people's physique is relatively strong during this period, and the three-month dangerous pregnancy period passed quickly. The fetus' position was fixed, and Zhang Yuling was able to relax.

Jia Dayun didn't think too much about it. Today he brought some wine and a few snacks: peanuts, steamed soy milk and a small piece of beef.

This piece of beef was obtained from a large canteen while he was working as a stone carrier, but it was cooked in a simple way using only water and a large amount of coarse salt.

He planned to make a sauce as a accompaniment, adding more garlic, appropriate amount of salt and soy sauce, and vinegar is also a seasoning that cannot be ignored.

Oops! Also, he seemed to have neglected to give Aunt Yuling a surprise.

He dug into a small backpack in his pocket again and pulled out a small IV bottle with a bottle of clear cooking oil in it.

As I recall, there were quite a few such cooking oils in his space.

When I bought oil with Ma Yunpeng for the first time, I bought a lot, and later I added more than ten kilograms of oil bit by bit.

The apprentice added a tiny bit to the sauce, and immediately it was filled with fragrance. Compared with the past, the scented oil nowadays is indeed more outstanding.

Then, she carefully closed the lid and handed it to her master's wife, and Zhang Yuling kept it as if it were a treasure.

Deep in his heart, Wang Jianqiang felt that his guilt towards his apprentice seemed to have become even greater, but the grudges between the two families made it unclear who owed whom. His father used to support Jia Haoyun's family; but now, it seems that the situation has changed.

When the dishes were ready but had not yet been put into the pot, Xiang Guoan suddenly visited.

He came carrying a chicken - obviously a live hen, but the origin of the hen was a bit mysterious.

Zhang Yuling quickly instructed Xiang Guoan to put the chickens in a cage in a corner of the yard and keep them there temporarily, perhaps they could still lay eggs.

As the delicious dishes were served one by one, the hot steamed buns were also served on the table.

Several people sat together at the dining table. Although they were as close as family, the atmosphere was casual and relaxed. Even their daughters Niuniu and Zhang Yuling, who were usually by their side, were invited to the table to share the delicious food.

Wang Jianqiang wondered in his heart, looking at the energetic Xiang Guoan, wondering if all the problems that had troubled him before had been solved? Could it be that all the discomfort he had shown before was just an illusion?
