Siheyuan: With a system in place, you don’t need to worry in times of famine

Widow Bai was cooking while listening to He Daqing talking about the Siheyuan. When she learned that Ye Fei and his friends could eat meat every day, she suddenly understood:

"It's okay for the three of us to live here. After all, it's a cave and can shelter us from the wind and rain.

Just stay in the courtyard and gain the trust of Shazhu and Yushui as soon as possible.

As for food, just take less each time and don’t get caught…”

"Well, don't worry, I have a plan for this matter."

When He Daqing heard this, his face lit up and he immediately said happily.

He liked the White Widow's considerate appearance. Many times, their thoughts coincided with each other, which saved him both trouble and effort.

"I have to go back first. I'll come to see you the day after tomorrow."

"Well, be careful when you go back and don't let anything slip."

The White Widow nodded, and with a "smack", He Daqing kissed the White Widow. When the White Widow rolled her eyes at him, he left contentedly like a kitten stealing some fish.

On the way back, I walked briskly, humming a little tune, and suddenly felt that life like this was not bad.

He doesn't need to work in the fields or put in much effort. He can get something for nothing by just talking and losing face. He can also support the White Widow and her three daughters. Isn't that wonderful? !

As soon as I walked to the middle courtyard, I ran into He Yushui and Ye Fei who were about to go out. I felt inexplicably guilty and my eyes were evasive.

But then he remembered that they didn't know what he had done, so he immediately raised his voice and said:

"Yushui, Ye Fei, are you guys going out?"

He Yushui paused. She didn't expect to meet He Daqing. A complex look flashed in her eyes. She was not ready to face He Daqing.

Ye Fei held He Yushui's hand and transferred his strength to him, allowing He Yushui to calm down a little and then he hummed.

"It's getting late, why don't you finish lunch before going out?"

He Daqing looked up at the sun, estimated the time, and spoke.

"No, my brother hasn't come back yet. I guess the factory is busy. Ye Fei and I can just go out to eat."

After speaking just now, He Yushui found that speaking was not that difficult, and explained calmly.

"Silly Zhu didn't come back, wasn't I here?

My craftsmanship is not much worse than your brother's?!"

He Daqing said quickly that they had to find a way to keep the two of them at home for dinner, otherwise, if time went on and the vegetables in the cellar ran out, they would definitely be discovered:

"Before Shazhu left, he specifically told me not to let you starve.

Why don’t you and Ye Fei go back to the house and wait, I’ll bring the meal to you after I finish cooking…”

"No need, Yushui wants to eat Quanjude's roast duck, we can just go out and eat."

Feeling He Yushui's rejection, Ye Fei directly spoke up.

"Uh, okay then."

When He Daqing met Ye Fei's eyes, he suddenly felt very pressured. He didn't dare to look Ye Fei in the eye, so he had to agree.

Finally, I did not forget to add:

"Then I'll just make something for myself at noon."

Looking at the backs of the two people leaving, He Daqing curled his lips. If they don't want to eat, then don't eat. He can save his energy.

Thinking of the bacon in the cellar, He Daqing did not treat himself badly at all. He simply made a dish of fried cabbage with bacon, boiled a bowl of thick rice porridge, heated up a few steamed buns, and ate them with great satisfaction.

"He Daqing..."

Just as He Daqing was enjoying his meal, a voice came from outside the door. He looked up and saw an old lady walking in. She immediately stood up and said incoherently:

"Mr. Yi, please take a seat..."

"No thanks, He Daqing."

The aunt took a look at the food on the table, a large plate of fried bacon with only a few slices of cabbage on it, and the thick rice porridge, and cursed him in her heart, "The prodigal son."

Then he smiled and said:

"Originally, I was thinking that since Zhuzi hadn't come back, and you hadn't cooked, you could just come to my place and have a meal.

Since you have already eaten, I won’t bother you any more.”

"Then thank you to the old Yi family."

He Daqing didn't expect that the aunt would be so enthusiastic. Thinking about how when he just came back yesterday, the aunt even invited Yan Laoxi's children to dinner, he had some guesses in his mind.

This old couple is still as warm and kind as before.

After eating and drinking, He Daqing lay on the bed and closed his eyes beautifully.

This kind of life was something he had never dared to imagine before.

Although he had love for the White Widow during these years, he was almost bent over by reality.

During the busy farming season, people work from sunrise to sunset.

I do so much work every day that I can't even get enough to eat.

But love is enough, and for the White Widow, everything is worth it.

If it weren't for the famine, he would have stayed in the countryside with the White Widow and the others and not returned.

Now that I'm back, it feels pretty good.

At least, he doesn't have to worry about three meals a day. Sha Zhu has a fixed salary every month, and his son-in-law Ye Fei is extremely capable.

He needs to enjoy it for a while and find out all the situations before taking any action.

backyard.

It was the first day after Lou Xiao'e left her confinement, and she got up early in the morning to pack and change her clothes.

I couldn’t wash my hair or take a shower for a month, and I was sweating and sticky every day.

If it weren't for the confinement period, she would have taken a good bath long ago.

"Ezi, are you done packing?"

The baby on the bed was crying loudly. Xu Damao was a little at a loss. He picked up the baby and tried to comfort him, but the baby still cried. He had no choice but to shout to Lou Xiaoe.

"Okay, come right away."

Lou Xiao'e also heard the child crying, and immediately wiped her wet hands on her clothes, then hurried over:

"Oh, my dear, are you hungry?"

Xu Damao stood aside, watching Lou Xiao'e carefully and gently coaxing the child, feeling mixed emotions.

It would be great if he was healthy.

Then this child is his own.

No, this child is his biological child. Only three of them know about the incident, and I believe no one will tell anyone.

So, Xinbao is his biological daughter.

During this month, whenever Xu Damao had other thoughts, he would use this sentence to hint himself.

From feeling awkward at the beginning to being able to accept it reluctantly now, Xu Damao has gradually begun to adapt to the fact that he is Xu Xinbao's biological father.

"For this full-moon banquet, we don't need to invite anyone else in the hospital except Ye Fei, right?!

After all, we are going to hold it in a hotel, and the gifts from those people are not enough to cover our investment.”

Xu Damao's eyes flashed as he watched Lou Xiao'e feeding the baby skillfully.

He hasn't touched Lou Xiao'e for several months since she became pregnant. Now that she is finally out of confinement, he must have some meat tonight.
