Siheyuan: Rebirth 52, intercepting Qin Huairu

Hearing the noise of the Jia family's children in the backyard, the older generation, such as the eldest uncle and the second uncle, also started to get busy because they were worried about missing this great opportunity.

They are all people who attach great importance to family honor.

Before, children's visits were commonplace and sometimes caused them impatience.

Now that they came to the home of their eldest son Jia Haoyun, they felt a little unhappy to a certain extent, but they quickly adjusted their mentality.

After all, the children’s gathering is short, and they still have to visit other families, and the New Year gifts for each household cannot be forgotten.

When a bunch of little children came into the house, the eldest and second uncles finally put aside their anxieties.

If they miss this New Year's greeting, their family's reputation will be questioned.

After the three grandchildren finished their kowtow, he saw the two coins in their hands and couldn't help but smile and continued on his way to other families.

This is the family tradition - New Year's money is the children's New Year's blessing, but the amount is not always sufficient, because after all, each child's age and development status are different, so the amount given by parents is also different.

After the child in the third room received the one-cent coin, he showed an unsatisfied expression on his face, then turned and left, saying, "How stingy! Look at Uncle Haoyun, he only gave two cents!" "Yes, your second grandfather gave at least five cents!" A more sensible child reminded him, "Grandpas are also very good, although it's only one cent, but it's the joint intention of grandpa and madam.

"

After hearing this, they suddenly realized, “Oh, that’s indeed true.

"So they continued to explore their respective relatives' homes, and some even quietly reminded each other, "Don't call them 'Shazhe' directly, it's more appropriate to call them 'Zhuzi' uncle. You know, Uncle Xu may not be at home today, but even so he is still quite generous. Let's go and take a look.

"The last little detail was brought up, but it elicited a chuckle.

Although the New Year's gift from my great-grandfather's family was two dimes less, it was not because they were reluctant to give it, but because they thought one cent was already a lot.

In this era full of love and differences, Qin Huairu's belly not only carries a new life, but also carries the love from her neighbors.

During this Spring Festival, everyone has unique memories and feelings.

Jia Haoyun didn't understand this and simply thought that after Qin Huairu became pregnant, he just needed to feed her more delicious food to supplement her nutrition, but in fact this was not the case.

At first, Jia's mother also thought so. She only gave birth to Jia Haoyun as her child, and the chance to have good food to eat was very slim at that time, which resulted in her children being weak in physique.

However, all these doubts were solved by the deaf grandmother during the Chinese New Year.

As the daughter of a wealthy family in the past, she naturally understood such things.

When the deaf grandmother saw Qin Huairu's physical condition, she advised Lady Jia and Jia Haoyun that a baby that was too big would be detrimental to delivery.

Even though Qin Huairu had swollen feet, moderate walking exercise was also extremely critical and helpful, which could make the pregnancy process safer and smoother.

After hearing this proposal, Jia's mother felt a little uncertain because she was worried that it might affect the normal life and physical health of the pregnant woman; on the other hand, when she realized the nutritional needs and daily activities of the pregnant woman, she began to rethink and take appropriate care.

In order to solve this problem and ensure that Qin Huairu's healthy childbearing process would not be affected in any way, Jia Haoyun decided to take his wife for a professional physical examination and consultation.

Through Director Wang (the title here implies an influential position in the hospital), they confirmed the advice mentioned by the deaf grandmother earlier: a child who is too big may indeed bring some challenging problems, but Qin Huairu's situation is slightly better - this is thanks to the fact that today's medical technology is far superior to that of the past.

Therefore, Jia's mother paid certain attention to pregnancy management and strictly controlled her diet and daily exercise plan.

As time passed and Jia Haoyun returned home, he encountered the doorman again (here implying the role of factory entrance management), which seemed to be a bad sign.

Jia Haoyun understood the other party's raised eyes as indicating that someone wanted to meet and talk with him.

This man had evidently been visiting since noon, and his appearance and tone showed clearly that he was visiting a relative.

The number of people visiting their relatives at the steel mill has increased significantly in recent years, with multiple or even a dozen visitors a day. Jia Haoyun is one of them.

When the doorman learned that it was he who was visiting, he gave him the privilege of entering and waiting (implying extra treatment different from ordinary visitors).

At this moment, although the doorman did not have the courage to intervene without permission (to avoid unauthorized persons sneaking into the factory), it was a bit tricky to deal with the situation of a large number of people waiting; however, it was not impossible to give special care to certain individuals (such as allowing the visitor to come to the doorman outside the door to rest for a while) - especially for families who had close contact with company employees such as Jia Haoyun and had a relatively close relationship with them.

Faced with the concierge’s domineering aura and the uncle’s influence, most “outside” visitors have been intimidated (meaning their voices or direct demands have been suppressed or repressed) because they realize how difficult it is to communicate with such a manager.

However, Jia Haoyun is well versed in the ways of the world - his colleagues in the security department did not refuse to provide any form of care because of his identity or status within the company, but instead showed him a warm concern and respect.

Whether it is passing cigarettes or showing courtesy, this traditional custom always exists.

This time was no exception - he left half a box of cigarettes for the doorman.

Jia Haoyun used to enjoy "treatment" when he worked in the factory, and he was well aware of the doorman's generosity.

Although this half box of cigarettes could not relieve his desire for smoking, it was an important symbol to the old doorman - it reflected the friendship, respect and tacit understanding between the two parties.

Back to the topic of the story: the person waiting in the gatehouse turned out to be Qin Huairu's uncle (second uncle).

This scene reveals an awkward and tense emotional atmosphere: the uncle is squatting in the corner with his head down, smoking, with a sad expression on his face, revealing some unknown difficulties or worries.

In the subsequent development and conflicts, this character may gradually reveal more background stories, character traits and complex family entanglements, thereby promoting the development of the plot.

However, since the above information does not elaborate on the subsequent plot development (including the content of the characters' dialogue and how the story continues to progress), this will be left open for the author to fill in the blanks later.

"Uncle, you're here? Why don't you stay at home for a while?" Jia Haoyun asked with concern.

I haven't seen my uncle Qin Weiguo for a long time, especially after my grandmother passed away, and Qin Huairu's health has been getting worse, so he hasn't returned to his rural hometown.

“Well, well…” When he saw Jia Haoyun, Qin Weiguo didn’t know where to start.

To be honest, he was embarrassed to go to the Jia family directly for help.

My uncle's family was indeed having a hard time, but knowing that his nephew's husband was always straightforward and honest, he took the opportunity to visit him when he was in town.

By observing his uncle Qin Weiguo's facial expressions and tone, Jia Haoyun guessed the real purpose of his visit.

In order to avoid embarrassing others by speaking in front of the door, Jia Haoyun enthusiastically invited his uncle into the house and asked about the details of the matter.

"Uncle, are you here for something?" When Jia Haoyun took the initiative to take his uncle home, the people guarding the courtyard thought that they must have a need to borrow grain.

After all, in such circumstances, kind-hearted people like Jia Haoyun are not common.

Qin Weiguo's family affairs were not private matters. Although he did not mind relatives taking care of each other, he would not interfere too much in the Jia family's affairs.

“Yeah, I came to town for something and came to see you guys.

" The uncle seemed very embarrassed to answer the inquiry.

"Have you finished your work? Do you need any help? Since you have come all the way here, why don't you stay here for a night? It's a rare opportunity.

Jia Haoyun suggested enthusiastically.

Although he was just a cousin, he showed great courtesy to the Jia family.

"Now that I have finished my work, there is no need for me to stay at your place. I still have to hurry home.

"Qin Weiguo replied anxiously.

After this trip into the city, I have to return home in time.

"Oh, then how about this! How is your family? Is everything okay?" Jia Haoyun was considerate and concerned about his uncle's family situation.

Faced with his father-in-law's family, of which he only knew one relative, he was helpless in helping with the difficulties at home.

Therefore, when my uncle said "it's okay", I felt a little touched.

"It's considered some understanding," this seemingly simple "it's okay" contains his inner voice.

Qin Weiguo's family situation was not actually very good, but since he was only a kinship relative, it seemed inappropriate to ask for a loan at this time. Especially when he learned that his family did not owe anyone food, he was stopped before he could say anything.

In today's society, the word "food" is of paramount importance, like the lifeblood.

Many of the neighbors and relatives in the city took the opportunity to seek help from others, but in most cases they were sent back home after dinner.

Some were even scolded with numerous painful remarks before they even opened their mouths. After all, no one is a fool.

In the face of family considerations, people who borrow help are usually asked to do their best to meet the requirements.
