Siheyuan works as a nanny for Shazhu
Chapter 18 1 Bowl of Soup
At this time, Jiang Feng smelled the aroma of meat, so he got up and went into the kitchen, chatting with He Yuzhu in front of the stove.
The noise in the yard gradually became louder. Judging from the sound, it should be the factory where people are getting off work. Through the window, people in blue work clothes can be seen walking in in twos and threes. Jiang Feng also saw Yi Zhonghai and Jia Dongxu coming back together. Behind them was Liu Haizhong, who was walking slowly with her hands behind her back and her belly bulging.
When Yi Zhonghai returned home, Li Guilan was busy in the kitchen. Seeing him coming back, she said, "Sit down for a moment. The meal will be ready soon." Yi Zhonghai took a sip of water from the enamel pot and asked, "Is everything going on in the courtyard?"
"Yes, Zhuzi came today and said he was going to Baocheng to visit his father tomorrow. He had already bought the tickets and asked me to help him sew pockets on his inner clothes because he was going to take the train."
"I know that. I looked for him this morning."
"Old Yi, do you think we should stand up in the courtyard? Daqing also told you to help take care of it. Today, the Jia family, the Yan family, and the Wang family in the backyard had a fight in the courtyard. It seems that they are all plotting to take over Old He's house."
"No hurry. I went to ask Sha Zhu this morning. He still holds out hope of finding his father. Also, I was going to stop Sha Zhu this morning. I don't know who told him to ask his master for leave. You know what the old lady is thinking. Let Sha Zhu cut off the master's path so that we can control him better."
Yi Zhonghai took another sip of water and continued, "If it weren't for the old lady, I wouldn't want to get involved in these things. Although Zhuzi is honest, he has a bad temper. Let these people in the courtyard temper his temper. Then I will stand up and support him. Only then can he know who treats him well."
After hearing this, Li Guilan felt sorry for He Yushui, because she had no say at home because she had no children for decades. She could only secretly send some things to the He family when Yi Zhonghai was at work.
When the dishes were ready, Yi Zhonghai said, "Go to the backyard to pick up the old lady. We still need to discuss the He family's affairs with her."
When Jia Dongxu got home, he saw a bowl of corn porridge and a few steamed buns made of two jin flour on the table. Jia Zhang was sitting in front of the window, cursing, "Mom, what's wrong again?"
"It's that old man from the He family who has no descendants. Today I went to talk to him and asked him to let you live in the main house. He disagreed and told me to get out. And those old ladies in the yard wanted to snatch the He family's house from me, but I scolded them to death."
He swallowed his saliva and continued, "That dead family is cooking meat, but they didn't send some to their neighbors. Why should that dead family eat such a good thing? They should send it to my son to eat."
When Jia Dongxu heard this, he knew his mother was going to make trouble again. He also smelled the smell of meat, and could only say, "Mom, come and eat. Something happened at home, and I'm in a bad mood these days. Don't look for trouble. I don't have a house or anything to eat, so why should I give it to you? If you want to eat meat, tell me. When the door rings, I'll go buy a pound of meat. My master said that I will have no problem getting a permanent job this time. By then, my salary will be 330,000, and I can eat whatever I want."
When Jia Zhang heard that he was going to be promoted to a regular employee, she became happy: "My son is really amazing. He was promoted right away. When the time comes, you will be a formal employee. I will ask matchmaker Wang to find you a marriage partner. You are old enough now."
"No rush. I'm not twenty yet. Let's talk about it when I am." Jia Dongxu is still a young man and still feels embarrassed when talking about marriage.
"Let's wait and see. Mom will definitely find you someone in the city, preferably one with a job. It will take time to find one."
"Okay, Mom, you decide."
Jia Zhang was eating the steamed bread and smelled a stronger fragrance. She started to curse again and rolled her triangular eyes: "Dongxu, your master is a big boss now. The two families next door are living in such a big house. You should talk to your master and ask him to lend us the main house. Then you can live in the main house and it will be more prestigious for the blind date."
Jia Dongxu thought for a while and said, "It's hard to say. There are three people in my family now, and there is also my cousin Shazhu. How can we squeeze three people into one side room? We can just borrow the side room. When the time comes, you can move in, and I can stay in the main house to take care of it."
Jia Zhang thought about it and asked her son to talk to him first. As long as Yi Zhonghai agreed, they could then drive that wild bastard away and replace the ear room with the main house.
: Jia Dongxu has been dependent on Jia Zhang since he was a child, and he also knows where Jia Zhang's current aggressive personality came from. After the death of old Jia, if there was no one to support the family, the family would have been taken advantage of by others long ago, and the whole courtyard was watching them. Until Jia Dongxu entered the factory, Yi Zhonghai accepted him as an apprentice, and there were always people speaking for the Jia family. Although Yi Zhonghai and Jia Zhang did not dare to take sides openly when He Daqing was around, He Daqing was not a good person either, and he turned a blind eye to it when it did not involve the He family. This is how Jia Zhang became aggressive and a scoundrel. She always likes to take more and take more. She thinks that since we are orphans and widows, you should help me and it is your duty. If you don't help, she will block the door and curse you. But Yi Zhonghai favors the Jia family, which is why most of the families in the courtyard are not on good terms with the Jia family.
Although Comrade Xiao Jia also listens to Jia Zhangshi, he still has his own opinions. Although Tomato's novel says that Jia Dongxu has the same personality as his mother, from the perspective of the entire TV series, Yi Zhonghai has trained him for more than ten years, and he lived in the courtyard when Old Jia was there. Yi Zhonghai is a calculating person, but he has a good vision. Jia Dongxu died early, and he knew the personalities of Qin Huairu and Sha Zhu, who he chose, otherwise how could he control them so well. If Jia Dongxu had the same personality as Jia Zhangshi, who would dare to rely on him for retirement?
Jiang Feng has been in the hospital for a few months. Because of He Daqing, Jia Zhang didn't dare to come to the house to cause trouble. There were always a few times a month when Jia Zhang blocked the neighbor's door and cursed, insisting on taking the blame no matter whether she was right or not. Afterwards, Yi Zhonghai always brought Jia Dongxu to apologize. At least now people in the hospital still think that Jia Dongxu is a good person. This is the reason why Yi Zhonghai chose Jia Dongxu.
A middle-aged woman here took the deaf old lady into the house. The deaf old lady looked up and sniffed: "Zhong Hai, what delicious food have you made today? Ask me to come and eat."
When Yi Zhonghai heard this, his face darkened: "Old lady, it's still the same. We don't have meat at home."
"Why does it smell so good? Who is cooking meat?"
"The He family doesn't know how to respect the old and love the young. They don't even know how to send some cooked food to their elders. He Daqing just left, and some of them are still eating meat at home. They don't know how to live." Yi Zhonghai took this opportunity to flatter Sha Zhu in front of the deaf old lady.
"Is that so? Zhong Hai, you and Gui Lan should visit him more often. There are only two siblings left at home. You should help them more. Otherwise, how will they live in the future?"
"Old lady, I thought so too. I plan to let Sha Zhu work in the steel rolling mill so he can have a formal job. Otherwise, what will happen to Yu Shui at home? I will save his salary for him after he gets it, just enough for his daily expenses. Sha Zhu will also want to marry in a few years, and I will use this money to help him get married. That will make He Daqing happy when he asked me to take care of him when he left." Yi Zhonghai said confidently. After the two of them talked, only He Yuzhu and He Yushui were in their conversation. They probably thought they had Sha Zhu under their control, so they could just kick Jiang Feng out.
"Yes." The deaf old lady nodded: "Yes, I still trust you. It is right for the Qing Dynasty to entrust the pillar to you."
She pursed her lips again and said, "I am getting old and hungry. Guilan, go see what Zhuzi is doing at home and bring some to satisfy my craving."
Yi Zhonghai glanced at the auntie, who stood up and said, "Okay." She turned around, picked up a bowl, pushed the door open and walked out. When she arrived at the He family's house, she pushed the door open and went in. She saw He Yuzhu and others sitting at the dining table. He Yushui was gnawing on a bone, his mouth full of oil. He swallowed his saliva involuntarily and said to He Yuzhu, "Zhuzi, look, the old lady is having dinner at my house. She smelled the aroma of meat, so I asked you to pack some to satisfy the old lady's craving."
"Auntie, I didn't cook any meat, just two bones. Yu Shui ate one, and Xiao Feng and I shared one. There's only some soup left. How about I make you a bowl of soup?" He Yuzhu said.
"That's fine. A bowl of soup will make it easier for the old lady to eat steamed buns." He Yuzhu took the bowl, went to the kitchen to get a bowl of soup and handed it to the aunt: "Auntie, please go slowly, don't spill it." "Hey, thank you, Zhuzi." He Yuzhu said repeatedly: "It's nothing, it's nothing."
He Yushui was struggling with his bones and paid no attention to them. He only called out when an old lady came in.
Jiang Feng sat at the table without saying a word. He sneered in his heart, "Let's start now. Let the deaf old lady come out and then praise Sha Zhu in the yard. He respects the elderly and loves the young. We should praise him first, and then wait for the beasts in the yard to make trouble. Then bring the deaf old lady out to recognize him as a godson. Naturally, the beasts in the yard will not dare to act rashly, and by then they will have Sha Zhu under their control. Don't worry, let's wait until we get to Baocheng." The few of them said nothing and started eating again.
After the aunt went home, she put the soup in front of the deaf old lady and told her what she saw at the He family. The deaf old lady lowered her head and smelled it: "You are worthy of being a chef. Look at the bone soup cooked by Zhuzi. It smells so good. Guilan, go to that bowl and drink some. My Zhuzi is always good to me." After that, the deaf old lady looked at Yi Zhonghai.
Yi Zhonghai continued, "Yes, we have watched Sha Zhu grow up since he was a child. He has a simple and honest character and is polite. As the eldest uncle in the courtyard, I must praise him, respect the elderly and love the young, and let everyone in the courtyard learn from Zhuzi."
When the deaf old lady heard what Yi Zhonghai said, she nodded with satisfaction and said meaningfully: "Let's wait until Zhuzi comes back from Baocheng. When he comes back, Zhuzi will give up. We also need to discuss with several uncles in the courtyard to hold a meeting, and I will also participate. We must help the He family arrange their future life. We elders can't bear to see the younger generation unable to live in the courtyard."
Yi Zhonghai nodded in agreement, then picked up the soup that the aunt had portioned out and took a sip. The aroma of bones and meat filled his nose. Only then did Yi Zhonghai feel that it was really delicious. If he had Dongxu to take care of him and give him money when he was old, and he could eat the meals made by Sha Zhu, it would be really nice. It seems that he should pay more attention to Sha Zhu.
