The Beginning of Siheyuan: The Pig Killer of Qinjia Village

These words fell into He Daqing's ears, and he confirmed the news he had asked people to inquire about in the countryside. He was indeed a good person with a kind heart. In addition, when the Chang family first came to the Siheyuan, Qin Huairu and Jia Zhang's victory in the confrontation should be able to gain a foothold in the Siheyuan.

Moreover, it was true that the Chang family subsidized the elderly and orphans in the countryside. He felt more at ease to entrust the rain to the Chang family. He felt more at ease than Yi Zhonghai and his wife, after all, they were now focusing on the Jia family...

He Daqing collected his thoughts and smiled awkwardly. "Awei, I'm going to go out for refuge, and I don't know when I'll be back, so..."

Chang Wei asked knowingly. "Uncle He, do you mean that you will not come back in the next few years? Don't you have other relatives at home? Do you trust me so much? Yu Shui is easy to take care of with me, but I heard Yu Shui said that she has a brother, so are you going to take her with her?"

There was no need to guess in my heart. He Daqing, this shrewd man, must have inquired about me, otherwise he would not have made this decision.

Hearing this, He Daqing admired Chang Wei's character and said without hiding anything. "Ah Wei, to be honest, I asked about you, but I didn't expect you to be quite famous in the surrounding villages. I found out after asking around."

He took a puff of cigarette and continued. "Both the brothers and sisters will stay. I have paved the way for Zhuzi. When he has learned the two skills, Yi Zhonghai from the Central Courtyard will help introduce him to a factory cook. The salary will be enough for their future living and daily expenses, and I will send money back every month..."

Chang Wei smiled slightly, thinking to himself that it turned out that the person who had inquired about him was that cunning He Daqing.

Sha Zhu has been arranged and is now learning the art. No wonder Sha Zhu has no big complaints about He Daqing's return in the later part of the play. It turns out that there was an explanation? I guess the little resentment is because the brother and sister went to find He Daqing later but were refused entry by the White Widow!

"Uncle He, have you told them about this?"

He Daqing nodded. "I've told Zhuzi that the rain is still small and the child is not very careful, so let's not talk about it!"

Chang Wei thought about it and suggested for the sake of safety. "Uncle He, don't worry, I will take care of Yu Shui. However, you should talk to Zhu Zi about Yu Shui and don't make it difficult for me. I suggest you talk to Zhu Zi again before you leave!"

If I don't explain clearly, that bastard will come to my door, which will only cause trouble for me! If it doesn't matter, I can just beat him away. It's not easy to do it even if he is related to me in the future...

He Daqing sighed and took out an envelope that he had prepared. "Well, thank you for your help. I will talk to Zhuzi before I leave. This is 100 yuan. You can use it to pay for the rainwater expenses. I will send you the money after I settle down."

Chang Wei took the money and said with concern, "Uncle He, take care of yourself when you are away from home. Don't worry about Yu Shui."

Wow! Even the money has been sent to me. Lao He, don't worry! I will take good care of my own pakchoi in the future and make sure they are white and tender.

He Daqing stood up and bowed to Chang Wei. "Thank you, Awei."

……

After seeing He Daqing off, Chang Wei called Qin Huairu over and told her about the rain.

Qin Huairu could hear his thoughts in the kitchen, and rolled her eyes at him coquettishly and said, "Then go back in a few days and bring Xiaoliu to school! Xiaoliu is almost old enough to go to school, so it's just right for him to have a companion."

What an evil thing! You already have this idea, so I have to worry about you. By the time you figure it out yourself, I don’t know what lame excuse you will come up with!

Chang Wei nodded calmly. "Okay, then you decide! As for Yu Shui, you need to spend more time with her recently. Her mother is gone, and her father is gone too. We need to give her the warmth of home. It's summer vacation now, so go and take a look at her and bring her home to play. I just saw He Daqing leaving the hospital, he must have gone to look for He Yuzhu."

"Wife, we have such a good understanding. You are ready to do the things I just thought of. You are indeed my most caring wife."

……

After leaving the Chang family, He Daqing did not go home, but came to Fengze Garden where Sha Zhu learned his skills.

After asking someone to call Sha Zhu from the kitchen, the father and son found an empty corner.

He Daqing went straight to the point and said, "Zhu Zi, Yu Shui's father has arranged it. It's the new Chang family that has moved in. You can study with peace of mind."

He Yuzhu asked curiously. "Dad, when did the Chang family move in? Are they living in the empty house in the backyard? Are they more reliable than Aunt Gao and the others?"

He could only go home once on the 15th of every month and didn't know that Chang Wei's family had just moved in.

He Daqing explained. "No, it's the East Cross Courtyard. Your Aunt Gao and her husband are now focusing on the Jia family. They have decided to let Jia Dongxu take care of them in the future. How can they take care of Yu Shui? The Chang family is well-off and kind. Dad has asked around. In the countryside, even those lonely elderly people and orphans who have no relatives are willing to take subsidies to live. Yu Shui can rest assured that they will take care of her."

He Yuzhu rubbed his head and muttered, "That's fine. What's so good about Jia Xiaokou? For so many years, he has been acting like Aunt Gao and her husband's biological son. It's really weird."

He Daqing warned. "Who can say for sure? Okay, let's not talk too much. You, remember to be polite when talking to the Chang family in the future. They help us raise Yu Shui and are indebted to us. Even if we don't remember the favor, Yu Shui still has to live with them..."

He Yuzhu nodded. "Dad, is it safe for you to go to Yaoji and change your name?"

He Daqing patted He Yuzhu's shoulder. "Don't worry! It's all done. It should be fine in three to five years. Remember, don't come to me unless you have something to do, so as not to reveal my whereabouts. Don't forget the recipes I wrote for you when you learn the skills. Once you learn them, destroy them and don't let anyone see them."

Then he gave her a serious and earnest admonition. "Zhu Zi, take good care of yourself in the future. If you really encounter difficulties, you can ask the Chang family for help. There are no good people in our courtyard. Except for the old lady, you can't trust anyone."

He Yuzhu nodded vigorously, "Dad, don't worry, I will take good care of myself."

He Daqing smiled with relief. "Dad believes in you, come back now! Go home tomorrow as planned."

After saying that, He Daqing turned and left, his figure gradually disappearing into the alley.

At this time, He Yushui was already in the Chang family yard, and Qin Huairu was accompanying her in chasing butterflies.

The two of them had a lot of fun. He Yushui, who had always lacked maternal love, felt that Qin Huairu was like both a sister and a mother, and she liked being with her. It was like talking to Brother Awei, and she felt very happy.

When He Daqing returned to the courtyard, as soon as he entered the gate, he heard Yu Shui's cheerful laughter coming from the Chang family's yard.

The corners of his mouth rose. His daughter Yu Shui and Qin Huairu got along well. It seemed that choosing the Chang family was the right decision.

He Daqing did not call He Yushui to go home, but went home to cook first. After the meal was ready, he ate in the middle courtyard facing the east wing.
