Siheyuan: Grassroots Counterattack

Wang Xue saw that Li Tianyi agreed, and then she put her mind at ease and fell asleep. At this time, Li's mother also came to Wang Xue's bed with her child and asked about her son and Wang Xue's situation. Li Tianyi briefly explained, and Li's mother put the child next to Wang Xue's bed.

She was going home to make something delicious for Wang Xue. "Tianyi, you stay here for a while. I'm going to go home and make something delicious for Xiao Xue. I'll bring food over later."

Li Tian nodded slightly, "Mom, you go ahead and let Dad go back with you. Just let Dad bring me food later. You can rest at home and come back tomorrow. I will keep watch here tonight."

Li's mother and father looked at each other, and then agreed to Li Tianyi's proposal. After Li's father and others left, Li Tianyi had time to see his son. However, he was a little disliked this little guy because he looked like a monkey and was all red.

The little guy was sucking his little fist in his mouth, sleeping quietly beside his mother. Looking at his wife and children, Li Tianyi felt happier than ever before. He was alone in his previous life, but in this life, he not only had both parents, but also a harmonious relationship with his wife and husband. Now he also had a legacy and offspring.

Li Tianyi stared at the little man on the bed in a daze. The other patients in the ward also looked at the family of three curiously. Judging from their clothes, they were obviously not ordinary people.

Including Wang Xue, there are three pregnant women in this room. Wang Xue and another one have already given birth, while the other one has not yet started labor, so the ward is very lively.

When Li Tianyi heard the quarrel next to him, he knew that this family was quarreling over a child. The family next door had just given birth to a daughter, and the woman in labor and her mother-in-law kept throwing things and fighting over it, and the woman in labor just endured it in silence.

Of course, these had nothing to do with him, but ever since Wang Xue returned to the ward, the mother-in-law from the next door family had been staring at the baby on the bed, which made Li Tianyi, who was already sensitive, alert.

He was really afraid that his son would be stolen. In this day and age, without surveillance, once a child was taken away, it would basically be impossible to find him again.

So Li Tianyi didn't dare to relax at all, fearing that his son was lost. It wasn't until Li's father arrived that Li Tianyi breathed a sigh of relief. After dinner, Li Tianyi asked Li's father to go back and rest quickly. As for the eggs that Li's mother cooked for Wang Xue, she could soak them in hot water and eat them when Wang Xue woke up.

Father Li also knew that he couldn't help much in the hospital, so he left without refusing.

Li Tianyi basically didn't dare to close his eyes that night. Wang Xue woke up in the middle of the night. He first glanced at the child, and then felt relieved when he saw that the little guy was still sleeping. Then he took the brown sugar eggs that Li Tianyi had prepared for him. Wang Xue was really hungry, so he took the bowl and started eating.

After eating, Wang Xue was still tired, so Li Tianyi advised her to take a rest. He would watch the child. If the child woke up, Li Tianyi would make some milk powder for the child. When Li's father came just now, he had already brought the milk powder and bottle that Li Tianyi had bought before.

Wang Xue knew that her husband was working hard, but she really couldn't bear it anymore and fell into a deep sleep again.

The day came when Wang Xue woke up. Li's mother had already come to the hospital with a stewed old hen, and the child had eaten the milk powder and continued to sleep.

Wang Xue felt her chest was wet. Seeing this, Mother Li knew that her daughter-in-law's milk was coming in, and her grandson had enough food.

Just then, Grandpa Shen and my aunt came to the ward, carrying large and small bags in their hands, which made the two families next door envious.

After a round of greetings, Grandpa Shen asked Li Tianyi if he had named the child yet. Li Tianyi shook his head, indicating that he had not decided yet. Grandpa Shen then said, "In that case, let me, an old man, give him a name. What do you think?"

Everyone was naturally willing to do so. Grandpa Shen was a founding general, and he was willing to give a name to his great-grandson. It was a blessing for this little guy.

Grandpa Shen pondered for a moment and said, "Why not just call him Li Aiguo?"

Li Tianyi had no objection to this, and Wang Xue agreed after reading the name several times. So the name of this little guy was finalized, and the nickname was given by Wang Xue, An An, which means peace and safety.

For the next three days, Li Tianyi did not leave the hospital. When he was tired, he would take a nap on the chair. Finally, Wang Xue was discharged from the hospital. The family left the hospital in a mighty manner. The old woman in the ward stared at the child in Li Tianyi's arms with unwilling eyes. It's not that she had not thought about stealing the child, but Li Tianyi seemed to know her purpose and had been letting them go.

When I returned home, my younger sister who usually lives in the school dormitory also came back. She looked at her little nephew, who was so small. When would he grow up?

Li's mother laughed at her for being ignorant because when she was born, she was not even as old as her little nephew.

Although the birth of a child is a happy event, the Li family has no intention of celebrating. The country is getting more and more difficult now, and there is a shortage of food in the city. Every household is tightening its belt to make ends meet. Every weekend, a large number of women and children go out of the city to dig wild vegetables and pluck leaves. Especially now that the locust trees are in bloom, and elm seeds can be eaten. These things can be brought home, mixed with some corn flour, and steamed into vegetable dumplings to eat.

Or you can mix it into cornmeal porridge to save a lot of food.

Because there was no snow all winter, the fields were extremely dry and the crops could not grow at all. The farmers in the village fell into despair.

More and more people are fleeing to the city, and the streets can no longer accommodate them, but the higher authorities are also helpless.

Although the Li family did not hold a banquet, Li's father went to Yan Bugui's house the next day with five eggs to thank the third aunt.

The three aunts were very happy. Nowadays, eggs also need tickets, and their family doesn’t eat eggs often. These five eggs can last them for a month.

Li Tianyi took care of Wang Xue at home for five days and then went back to work. It was impossible for him to stay with Wang Xue all the time, so Wang Xue could only ask Li's mother to help take care of her.

For the next month, Li's mother tried to think of ways to nourish Wang Xue's body, although she couldn't find anything good.

But Wang Xue's milk was sufficient, and An An became plump and white. This little guy loved to laugh, and would smile to anyone he saw.

Therefore, this child has become the darling of the Li family. Even though Li Tianhu has graduated and is waiting for assignment, he still loves his nephew very much.

When Wang Xue was out of confinement, the Li family held a banquet. They did not invite anyone else, but only invited Grandpa Shen, her aunt, and Li Huaide and his wife to liven up the party.

At this time, Li Tianhu's assignment came down, and he entered the steel rolling mill as he wished. Li Huaide was also very happy. His second nephew had also made progress, and after entering the steel rolling mill, he could also take care of him.
