Siheyuan: Starting with level 8 benchwork skills
Chapter 177 No Big Hinder
Qin Huairu was also in the house. Seeing Qin Jingru coming to visit, she jokingly said, "Oh, bride, it's OK that you're here. What else do you want to bring? Come and sit down. Do you want to stop going out?"
After Qin Jingru sat down, she said to Qin Huairu: "Well, he left for something. Sister, aunt, there is something I want to discuss with you..."
Jia Zhangshi poured a glass of warm water for Qin Jingru, and then asked: "Sister Huairu, what's the matter? Just tell me."
Qin Jingru said directly: "Aunt, sister, he said that considering it is not easy for you to raise three children, he wants to adopt Huaihua to my family to raise her. Are you willing?"
After hearing Qin Jingru's words, Jia Zhangshi had his own wishful thinking in his mind. This girl will always belong to someone else when she grows up, and the family already has a grandson, Banggeng, and two granddaughters.
There is no big problem in sending the granddaughter to He Yuzhu's home to be raised, after all, they live in the same yard. And the He family is just next door!
In this way, the burden on the family can be slightly reduced, and leaving behind only one grandson and one granddaughter will be enough.
Originally, ever since He Yuzhu married Qin Huairu's cousin, they had become related by marriage.
If Huaihua could be brought up in their home, it would strengthen their relationship. If Xiaodang could be sent there as well, the situation would be even better.
Jia Zhangshi immediately had an idea that was attractive to him, but he was worried that Qin Huairu would have objections so he did not agree directly. He just stared into Qin Huairu's eyes.
However, Qin Huairu had already made plans for this. When she discussed it with He Yuzhu before, she thought this was a better approach.
Besides, He Yuzhu lived next door. If he missed Huaihua, he could go see her anytime. And the He family was well off, so they wouldn't let Huaihua suffer.
What's more, I was already accompanying He Yuzhu last night (in name only), so the children in the family are actually his offspring!
Qin Huairu agreed according to the results of the previous discussion, but also needed to emphasize certain words: "Well, okay, if you want to raise Huaihua, then take her back to raise her!
But you must treat her well, otherwise I will ask to take her home and raise her myself! Although my family is very poor, we don't want to see her suffer. "
Jia Zhangshi echoed from the side, "Yes, we are all relatives and neighbors! It is a good choice to let Huaihua go over to take care of her. If you really want to handle this matter this way, then you must treat her as your own daughter, so as to repay us for the years we have spent raising Huaihua."
Qin Jingru nodded in response: "Sister, Auntie, please rest assured. Since we have decided to take care of Huaihua, we will definitely treat her well. This is the agreement; you can explain the situation to Huaihua in the next few days so that she can prepare.
The Chinese New Year is coming soon, so can we wait until after the New Year to bring her back to our home? "
However, Qin Huairu seemed a little sad and reluctant about this decision: "Well, I will communicate with Huaihua. Huaihua is a sensible and good girl and will obey."
Jia Zhangshi responded happily: "Yes, we will inform Huaihua in the next few days. It will be a happy occasion for her to come to your home! If Huaihua agrees, we can also celebrate the Spring Festival at your home before New Year's Eve."
When Qin Huairu heard the last words of her mother-in-law Jia Zhang, she felt uncomfortable!
Normally, Jia Zhang had an attitude of male superiority and female inferiority. When she gave birth to Huaihua, Jia Zhang was not very willing to help her take care of the postpartum period, and was even dissatisfied with her for giving birth to two girls in a row!
Now there is finally an opportunity to let someone else take care of her granddaughter, which is something Jia Zhang could never ask for more as it can reduce her living expenses.
Now that everything was settled and after finishing the task entrusted by Brother Zhuzi, Qin Jingru said goodbye and went home after a while.
But Jia Zhang wanted to curry favor with her and invited Qin Jingru to have dinner at her home, but was rejected!
Qin Huairu had always disliked Jia Zhang. In her opinion, she gave her granddaughter away without any feeling of nostalgia. Such a grandmother's attitude towards her granddaughter was really cold and heartless!
After He Yuzhu went out, he went to the library to borrow some medical books, such as "Huangdi Neijing", "Compendium of Materia Medica", and "Treatise on Febrile and Miscellaneous Diseases".
Unfortunately, these books had already been borrowed by others, leaving He Yuzhu at a loss as to where to find similar books.
Fortunately, a library administrator suggested that he could try his luck at Xiaguo Bookstore in Yanle Hutong, where he might be able to find ancient medical documents. However, these books were quite expensive, and one needed some kind of professional license to buy them.
After receiving the suggestion, He Yuzhu hurriedly thanked him and walked to Yanle Hutong. It was indeed inconvenient to be without a bicycle. He decided to take time to buy one in the afternoon.
The history of Xiaguo Bookstore can be traced back to before the founding of the People's Republic of China. As a scholar in the old city, almost everyone knows this bookstore.
In recent years, Xiaguo Bookstore has successfully achieved public-private cooperation and management of the entire industry. They have purchased a large number of ancient books and classics in Shanghai, Jinling, Chongqing, Chuncheng and other places, and have kept them properly!
Therefore, this store now has a large collection of ancient literature and history materials, and has established a strict and standardized management system! If you want to find ancient books, you will definitely find what you want in this bookstore. But please note that even if you have sufficient financial resources and a special liking for the ancient classics in this bookstore, if you are not engaged in academic research in this field, Xiaguo Bookstore will not sell them to you.
He Yuzhu does not need to buy the original ancient books, but only needs to make photocopies. For him, the core of knowledge lies in whether the information is conveyed properly. As for the original books, they are more like precious collections and are not worth being obsessed with.
However, He Yuzhu had some insights: the nobles in this city have deep families and their collections have a long history! When the time is right, you can buy them at a low price!
Especially in that turbulent era (referring to **), many precious artworks, books, magazines, cultural relics and documents, countless in number, were destroyed in the fire! This made He Yuzhu feel heartbroken!
Although he was just a small citizen and did not have enough ability to protect the safety of all the items, he could at least do his best to rescue the ancient documents and books in the city.
He will take some time these days to look for the residences of some masters of Chinese studies. He Yuzhu is ready to sneak into their homes at night and transfer those collections that are destined to be destroyed into storage space to ensure their safety!
He Yuzhu had already prepared cooked meat and steamed buns in his secret farm. He found an open area and went into the farm to have lunch. After a short nap, he arrived at an old bookstore in Xiaguo at dusk. After carefully observing the surroundings, he decided to buy a few medical replica books, and left after remembering this place firmly.
He planned to return here quietly as a bird in the middle of the night in the future and move all the precious books to his private warehouse. The city's libraries would be no exception - since history destined them to meet an unfortunate end, they might as well become treasures in his hands.
There was a lot of work to do: the first task was to find a kitten of moderate size and agility so that he could transform into a cat. This would allow him to enter almost any place without any obstacles. The average person would not pay much attention to an ordinary cat, and in this form, it would be a piece of cake for him to shuttle between walls and branches.
He also needed to quickly acquire the ability to fly - although many birds can fly at high speeds, he preferred to choose swifts:
1. Swifts are common and small, so they are not noticeable. If you become a peregrine falcon, although it is fast, it may attract attention. If you are shot by an unknown person, it will not kill you, but it will be very annoying.
2. Swifts have significant flying advantages, and can usually fly at speeds of over 120 kilometers per hour, with some species even reaching kilometers per hour.
The best feature is that this bird can fly continuously for a long time due to its physical characteristics!
The only drawback is that their claws are not very strong after landing, but for He Yuzhu this is a small matter. He can replace the claws with stronger ones of other birds as needed.
His focus is on the swift's ability to fly!
It is indeed difficult to find such swifts in winter, and temporarily transforming into pigeons is also a feasible option. It is not only easier to control but also allows him to move more freely.
After half a day of activities, He Yuzhu felt hungry and decided to take the bus home.
Although he could change to get rid of hunger, he felt it was unnecessary.
He Yuzhu is unwilling to give up some simple pleasures in life, such as tasting delicious food, sleeping well, writing articles of tens of thousands of words, etc. These pleasures are extremely important to him!
Life should be full of interest and we should not lose those ordinary yet real moments of happiness.
As night fell, He Yuzhu returned home. Qin Jingru had prepared a sumptuous dinner for him.
This time, Qin Jingru specially prepared several dishes containing meat. After tasting them, He Yuzhu felt that the taste was okay. However, compared with his own cooking level, he could only rate it as "still edible."
He asked Qin Jingru to serve a bowl of delicious food to the deaf old lady next door, hoping that this would increase the amount of delicious food on the old lady's table.
He Yuzhu had discussed this with Yi Zhonghai, an elder in the same hospital.
Sometimes I may not have time to prepare, so these daily meals mainly rely on the uncle and his family who live here to help take care of the deaf old lady.
When in the courtyard, He Yuzhu would cook more delicious food for the old lady within his ability, but the staple food still relied on the provision and support of the uncles.
In the situation of oil and food shortage at that time, if his family conditions permitted, he would add more dishes to the old lady's meal.
The uncle and his family will still be responsible for delivering the staple food. If the vegetables are not finished, they can be saved for cooking next time to avoid food waste.
Speaking of Uncle Yi Zhonghai, it is really difficult for He Yuzhu to make an evaluation of him easily.
In the past, Uncle Yi Zhonghai had wanted to join forces with Liu Haizhong to hold a meeting in the entire hospital to criticize He Yuzhu's behavior of teaching Xu Damao a lesson.
