Siheyuan, Rainwater is the master, Shazhu wins

The next morning, the sun shone on Yi Zhonghai, and he walked towards the steel mill alone.

What was different from the past was that today he did not walk with Liu Haizhong, because he knew very well that the two of them would be at loggerheads tonight, and there was no need to pretend to be harmonious anymore.

Qin Huairu, who heard about this last night, was also filled with worry.

What she was worried about was not anything else, but whether Yi Zhonghai would be able to continue to support her family once his financial resources ran out.

On the other hand, after getting up this morning, Xu Damao picked up two bottles of Niulanshan liquor. He first gave one bottle to Liu Haizhong, and then went to Yan Bugui's house to give another bottle as a gift.

At this point, he had completed all the procedures and was just waiting for the meeting to start in the evening.

He still needs to go to the factory today and deal with this matter when he returns in the evening.

He Yushui got up in the morning and prepared the meal. After enjoying it with He Yuzhu, he also set off for the factory.

She decided to arrive earlier today so that she would have a chance to chat with others.

After all, it would be hard to let go of such an interesting thing if you don’t share it with others.

Recently, an old lady has been worried and frowning.

Something happened to the old lady before, and she turned out to be a relative of the spy chief!

Not only that, the old lady's family property was also confiscated, even her treasured pair of earrings were confiscated, which made her heartbroken.

And now that Xu Damao's incident has happened again, Director Wang is forcing Lao Yi to pay the money.

This is not a small amount of money. Lao Yi's monthly salary is 99 yuan, plus some subsidies, which is a total of 112 yuan. However, this money has to be saved for future retirement and medical treatment. It is not enough to pay this expense!

Because of these troubles, the aunt was no longer in the mood to chat with the people in the yard. She went out to buy vegetables and prepare ingredients for lunch and dinner.

The second aunt of Liu Haizhong's family was particularly excited today and got up early in the morning to clean the house.

She looked at the time and found that it was time for everyone to go out to buy groceries, so she happily went out to join in the fun.

She came to the middle courtyard, but did not see the old lady who often chatted here, and she couldn't help but feel secretly happy.

Then she continued walking forward, and when she reached the front yard, she happened to meet the three aunts coming out.

"Hey, Third Auntie, are you going out?"

"Yeah, I'll go out and buy some groceries while it's still early in the morning."

"Are you going to buy groceries too?"

"Yeah, let's go together."

"Okay, let's go together."

"By the way, Third Aunt, did Damao tell your old Yan about that incident last night?"

"I told you, isn't this the task assigned by Director Wang? Do you think we can just not do it?"

"That's right. So when we get back later, we have to have a good talk with the women in the courtyard. In the evening, we will ask them to talk to their families and ask them to support our work as the head of the family."

"Second Aunt, you are so right. Let's go buy some groceries first and we can talk about the rest when we get back."

In this way, the two of them went shopping for groceries together.

The courtyard returned to its tranquility. He Yuzhu stood by the window, watching everyone leave. Then he quietly revealed his figure and walked quickly towards Xu Damao's house in the backyard.

At this time, Lou Xiao'e was lying on the bed and sleeping soundly.

After all, she was born into a wealthy family and she always had the habit of staying in bed.

Anyway, I don’t have to get up early, I can just go out and buy something to eat when I’m hungry; I don’t have to cook at noon, I can still go out and buy food.

For her, this situation has long been commonplace.

For so long, she still hasn't mastered cooking skills. Every time she goes home, Xu Damao still has to cook for her himself, so Xu Damao is really miserable.

Just at this moment, the door of Xu Damao's house rang, and Lou Xiaoe just woke up from her sleep.

After waiting for a while, there was no unusual sound, so she looked around suspiciously.

“No need to look around, here I come.”

He Yuzhu had ended his invisibility mode and was now sitting beside the bed, staring straight at Lou Xiaoe.

Lou Xiaoe couldn't help but be startled, but this time she didn't scream, she just muttered in displeasure.

"Come if you want, why do you always scare people in this way?"

"Haha, this is the only way to maintain my mystery! After all, I am different."

He Yuzhu responded with a smile.

"Do you think Xu Damao can recover?"

Lou Xiaoe showed a somewhat unconfident expression.

"This has nothing to do with you. Even if he recovers, you will probably be gone by then."

He Yuzhu raised the corner of his mouth slightly and said with a smile.

"Why do you say that? Where will I go?"

Lou Xiaoe obviously failed to understand the deeper meaning behind this sentence and asked with confusion on his face.

"Because under normal circumstances, you will definitely get pregnant with my child within half a year. When Xu Damao finds out about this, how do you think he will react?"

After hearing this, Lou Xiaoe's heartbeat instantly accelerated, her face turned red, and she looked very cute.

"I won't bear your child!"

Lou Xiaoe responded shyly.

"This is all for your own good. If you continue to wait for Xu Damao, it will be very difficult. Putting aside the time issue, he is making such a fuss every day. It will take at least one or two months for this to stop."

He Yuzhu explained patiently.

"After all, that's a full 1500 yuan. Even for Yi Zhonghai, an eighth-level worker, he would need to work for months without eating or drinking to earn that much money, not to mention those ordinary workers."

He Yuzhu said with emotion.

"Some people may not be able to come up with so much money in their lifetime, but Xu Damao insisted on doing this almost impossible task."

He Yuzhu said helplessly.

"Well, I understand that he just doesn't want to spend his own money."

Lou Xiaoe nodded slightly, indicating that he understood Xu Damao's thoughts.

Lou Xiaoe certainly understood this truth.

"Goose, do you long to have a child of your own? If you have this wish, I will always do my best to help you."

Without any warning, he tightly grasped Lou Xiaoe's hand, his eyes full of affection, and whispered softly.

"You know my situation very well. I will never let you down."

Lou Xiaoe couldn't help but feel a little flustered. It was really hard for her to bear talking about this kind of topic in broad daylight.

"Don't do this. If people in the yard hear this in broad daylight, the consequences will be disastrous."

"But don't worry, the backyard is empty right now. Everyone has gone out to buy food." "It will take at least two hours for them to come back. You don't need to worry."

Lou Xiao'e was shocked. She had never expected that the other party knew so much about the situation here.

"Are you trying to say that my preparations are too thorough?"

"It's a helpless move. For the sake of our child, to give you the chance to become a mother, and for the sake of the fruit of our love, I must make sure that nothing goes wrong."

"This will not only ensure that our secret remains unknown, but will also help you get pregnant successfully."

He Yuzhu said in a gentle tone.
