Soul of the Siheyuan: Zhuzi, I can still give birth

"Granddaughter?"

He Yuzhu was a little surprised. It had only been one night, so why did he want to acknowledge her as his granddaughter?

Not only He Yuzhu was surprised, Li Qin was also extremely surprised.

Obviously, she didn't know that the deaf old lady wanted to adopt her as her granddaughter.

He Yuzhu also saw Li Qin's surprise, so he said to the deaf old lady.

"Okay, this way Li Qin will take care of you, and no one will gossip about you. I support it."

But Li Qin wanted to say something.

But he was stopped by the deaf old lady.

“Li Qin, listen to me, my old lady doesn’t have any other skills, but the old lady is still not wrong.”

"You are a stubborn person. You want to do everything on your own."

"If it were a time when we had plenty of food and clothing, this wouldn't be a problem, but...!"

The deaf old lady paused. Now she was a little tired of talking continuously.

When Li Qin saw her like this, she hurried to pat her on the back, but was stopped by the deaf old lady.

"Everyone's life is hard right now. You and your mother are helpless now. You don't even have a place to stay."

"So I have adopted you as my granddaughter, and you are now a member of this courtyard. I believe that no one dares to drive you out."

The deaf old lady knows very well the nature of some people in this courtyard.

Now that Li Qin has moved into the courtyard house, some people will definitely be restless and will cause trouble.

He Yuzhu is busy and it is impossible for him to protect the mother and daughter all the time. Even tigers have time to take naps.

Now that the old lady has come forward, people in the courtyard naturally dare not act rashly.

He Yuzhu understood all of this and agreed with it wholeheartedly.

After He Yuzhu explained all this to Li Qin in a low voice, Li Qin thanked the deaf old lady with a grateful look on her face.

The news that Li Qin became the granddaughter of a deaf old lady soon spread in the compound of No. 95 Nanluoguxiang.

Many neighbors still don’t know who this Li Qin is. Someone reminded them that even the woman He Yuzhu brought back last night was called Li Qin.

Originally, there were some people who wanted to drive Li Qin out of the courtyard, such as Qin Huairu and Jia Zhang from the Jia family.

Yi Zhonghai worked overtime in the factory last night and came back very late, so naturally he didn't see Li Qin.

But I heard from the neighbors that the woman who woke up in the yard was very beautiful and young.

After hearing this, Yi Zhonghai also wanted to see what this new woman looked like.

Upon asking around, I found out that she is now living in the deaf old lady's house and has become her godson.

Yi Zhonghai, with a look of disappointment on his face, could only sigh in despair.

Xu Damao was also disappointed.

I originally wanted to hook up with the new beauty, but now that I’m living in the old deaf man’s house, this is difficult.

I don't have the courage to challenge that old man.

"Da Mao, what's wrong with you? Why do you look so unhappy?"

Qin Jingru saw that Xu Damao looked unhappy and asked curiously.

Xu Damao looked at Qin Jingru, who had a silly look on her face, and also sighed.

"Nimma, why is my wife not that Li Qin, but this silly Qin Jingru!"

Although he felt disgusted in his heart, Xu Damao did not dare to do anything extreme again.

Qin Jingru and I have already reconciled, if I still have any unpleasantness with her.

For example, if she knew that I was having an affair again, Qin Jingru would definitely not forgive me.

Even though he was a child of a poor family, Qin Jingru was willing to follow him. Even though he felt unwilling, he now only had the desire to hit the cat but did not have the courage to do so.

"Nothing, it's just that I have to go to the countryside to show a movie tomorrow. This time I'll be gone for two or three days. Thinking about not being able to see you for several days, I'm naturally in a bad mood."

Xu Damao was talking nonsense in a serious tone, but Qin Jingru's eyes were filled with tears. She was so moved that she almost burst into tears.

"Da Mao, I knew that I made the right choice by choosing you. When you come back this time, we will adopt a child like Auntie did, so that we won't have to worry about having no one to take care of us in our old age."

Qin Jingru has been thinking about it for a long time.

Xu Damao and I will never be able to have children of our own in this lifetime. We can't just live out the rest of our lives alone, without anyone bowing to us at our graves after we die.

"It's not impossible to adopt a child, but it would be better for us to adopt a child from someone we know well."

After listening to Qin Jingru's words, Xu Damao also had some thoughts about adopting a child.

"Let's talk about these things after I get back from my business trip. Go buy some braised pork head. I want to have a couple of drinks."

Xu Damao was feeling irritated, so he asked Qin Jingru to go out and buy some food to go with the wine.

Just like that, another week passed in a flash.

Li Qin has settled down in the courtyard. In addition to taking care of the deaf old lady every day, she also helps He Yuzhu clean the house and do laundry when he is at work.

Moreover, when He Yuzhu was at home, Li Qin would basically not come to see He Yuzhu alone. Even if she came to see him, she would stand at the door and never go into the house.

When Li Qin has nothing to do, she will make matchboxes, which earns her an extra ten yuan every month.

After settling Li Qin, the plan to take revenge on Liu Haizhong was put on the agenda.

Liu Haizhong, ever since he found out that the Jia family’s grandmother and granddaughter actually went to Lao Mo’s Restaurant.

This made Liu Haizhong obsessed with the Lao Mo Restaurant.

People in the hospital have heard Liu Haizhong say more than once that if he has the chance, he will definitely go to Lao Mo's restaurant, otherwise he would be unworthy of his position as the leader of the patrol team.

"Want to go to Lao Mo's restaurant? Okay, I'll satisfy you."

He Yuzhu took out the only meal ticket for Lao Mo's restaurant, flicked it with his fingers, and said harshly.

He turned around and went out to Panjiayuanzi, the largest antique trading market in the entire old city.

The Pan Garden has existed since the early Republic of China. In the past, palace guards, maids, eunuchs, etc. would bring stolen items from the palace here to sell.

After the fall of the Qing Dynasty, many antiques in the palace were stolen, and the Pan Garden became lively again.

Later it became an antique market.

Although this place has been banned now, it does not mean that those who do this business will disappear.

Every policy has its own countermeasure. Many people who make a living from this are operating in secret.

Since collecting a lot of antiques from the Lou family, He Yuzhu was introduced to several people who did business in Panyuanzi.

Today he is going to find a master who specializes in making counterfeits. Once a counterfeit is made by him, even if a real person comes, it will be difficult to tell the real thing from the fake.

In a private courtyard, an old man with gray hair was sitting in the shade of a tree in the yard to enjoy the cool air.

Suddenly, there was a knock on the door, followed by shouting.

"Is Master Jia Yizhen here? Is Master Jia at home?"

He Yuzhu was standing outside the campus, carrying two net bags of gifts and shouting loudly.

'crunch'

The courtyard gate opened, and a thin old man wearing a sweatshirt and waving a palm-leaf fan came out.

"Little monkey, why are you making so much noise? It's already dark, why don't you go home for dinner?"

The two have known each other for more than a year and have a very good relationship.

Jia Yizheng could barely earn enough to eat now, and it was thanks to Zhuzi's frequent support that his family did not starve to death.

"Master Jia, I thought you were not at home, otherwise I would have to take these gifts back, please!"

He Yuzhu said to Jia Yizheng with a grin.

Jia Yizheng waved to him.

"Come in, you brat!"

After entering the house, a girl of about eighteen or nineteen ran out.

"Brother Zhuzi, you are here. I will go get you some water."

A middle-aged woman in her forties, holding a shoe sole, also walked out of the house. When she saw He Yuzhu, she also greeted him with a smile.

"Zhu Zi, you are here, come and sit down."

"Hey..., Madam Wen, I came to see you today and ask Master Jia for help. Come, take the things in first."

After saying that, He Yuzhu handed over two large net bags of gifts.

There are cakes, rice and flour, as well as candies and canned food.

Mrs. Wen took the things embarrassedly.

"Zhu Zi, you send us food every month. Over the past year, thanks to you being here, Master's Wife doesn't know how to thank you enough!"

As she spoke, Mrs. Wen started to cry.

Jia Yizheng said unhappily at this time.

"You old woman, why are you crying? Hurry up and take your things in, you spendthrift woman."

Jia Yizheng's daughter came out at this time, holding a glass of water.

"Brother Zhuzi, come and have some water. Did you bring me some White Rabbit candy this time?"

He Yuzhu took the water, but did not answer, just looked at her with a smile.

"Brother Zhuzi, you didn't forget again, did you? You forgot to bring it last time, and you forgot it again this time. I'm going to ignore you, hum......!!"

"Xiao Cui, wait, Brother Zhuzi was just teasing you, how could he not bring it to you, come...!"

When He Yuzhu saw that Xiao Cui was angry, he quickly took out a handful of White Rabbit milk candies and stuffed them into Xiao Cui's hands.

When Xiao Cui saw the pockets filled with candies, she immediately stopped crying and smiled. She peeled a candy, stuffed it into He Yuzhu's mouth, and then ran away happily.

"Zhu Zi, come, sit down and talk. You didn't come to see me just to deliver something, did you? Tell me, what do you want me to help you with?"

After He Yuzhu sat down, Jia Yizheng asked directly.

He Yuzhu took out the meal coupon from Lao Mo Restaurant and placed it on the table.

"Master Jia, please do me a favor and get me a few counterfeit tickets of this kind."

Jia Yizheng took the meal ticket and looked at it.

"This is a coupon for Lao Mo's restaurant. This is the real thing. Why would you want a fake one?"

Jia Yi really didn't understand why He Yuzhu wanted a fake one when he already had the real one.

He Yuzhu briefly talked about the grudge between himself and Liu Haizhong, and Jia Yizheng nodded.

"Okay, come pick it up tomorrow. Except for the number, everything else is the same as the real thing."

It was just a few meal coupons. For Jia Yizheng, it was something that could be easily solved with just a little effort.

"That's troublesome. I'll come get it tomorrow night. I'll buy some food and we can have a few drinks together."

The next night, He Yuzhu successfully got the fake meal coupon. The next step was how to get it to Liu Haizhong.

Giving it directly to him would be courting death.

If the origin of this fake certificate is discovered, he will be arrested in minutes.

'How can I let Liu Haizhong get the meal voucher without letting him know who gave it to him? It's a bit troublesome!'

He Yuzhu didn't have a good solution for the moment, but decided to go back first!

I rode my bike back to the courtyard, and just as I arrived at the gate of the courtyard, I ran into Liu Haizhong and his wife. They must have just finished a walk and were on their way back to the courtyard.

"You should walk faster. I have a meeting tomorrow and I need to go to bed early today!"

Liu Haizhong said to the second aunt impatiently.

"Alright, alright. You are a busy man. You are just an official with a lot of problems to deal with."

The second aunt was also mumbling to herself.

"What do women know? I am just trying to improve myself. One must keep learning to improve."

As Liu Haizhong spoke, he walked into the courtyard.

The second aunt could only follow with grumbles, and they returned to the courtyard together.

"A meeting? It's like looking for something without any effort. I'll use this opportunity to deal with you."

He Yuzhu was standing not far away and heard that Liu Haizhong was going to a meeting tomorrow. This was not a good opportunity.

Thinking of this, He Yuzhu pushed the cart and returned to the courtyard happily.

After entering the house, he looked around for something.

After searching the entire house, I finally found a piece of red cloth in the closet.

He Yuzhu tore off a piece and took out a few fake Lao Mo Restaurant meal coupons made by Master Jia Yizheng.

He took out a few more dollars and put them together. Then he wrapped them with a piece of red cloth and tied them tightly with thread to prevent them from falling apart.

The reason for wrapping it in red cloth is to make it more conspicuous, otherwise Liu Haizhong would not be able to see it.

After finishing all this, He Yuzhu washed up. As the weather was hot, he did not go to bed, but lay on a chair in the main room, fanning himself with a palm-leaf fan and a radio playing beside him.

"It's really hot. I wonder if Qiuye and the others are feeling hot. I'll go see if they have fans for sale some other day. Otherwise, how are we going to get through this summer?"

In fact, electric fans are also produced in China at this time, but the production capacity of these electric fans is seriously insufficient.

There is a company in Guangdong that specializes in producing electric fans. The electric fans they produce are called Diamond brand. They are truly top-notch domestic products that can be used for 20 to 30 years without any problems.

But this fan has not even covered the entire south, let alone the north.

Except for some important units that have special supplies every year, it is basically not sold on the market.

"Hey...if I were a handicraft expert, I would just assemble an electric fan myself."

He Yuzhu, feeling a little unwilling, lay on a deck chair, fanning himself with a palm-leaf fan and fell asleep.

The next day, He Yuzhu got up as soon as the cock crowed.

While everyone in the yard was still asleep, He Yuzhu opened the door and pretended to exercise outside his own door.

The sun rises early in the city. It is hot now and the sky is already dim. There are also shadows of people swaying in some of the neighbors' homes.

He Yuzhu stretched his neck to look at the backyard and found that the lights in Liu Haizhong's house were also on, and it seemed that he had got up.

After a while, Liu Haizhong went out with a briefcase in a pretentious manner.

This old guy also followed other leaders and got a briefcase to make himself look more presentable.

When He Yuzhu saw Liu Haizhong go out, he also pushed his bicycle and followed him out.

He Yuzhu followed Liu Haizhong from a distance and saw where he was going. Then he could run in front of Liu Haizhong and throw down the red cloth bag.

After following for a while, we came to a place where there was only one fork in the road and a main road ahead.

He Yu looked ahead and finally knew where Liu Haizhong was going.

He Yuzhu immediately rode his bicycle, went in from the fork in the road, came out from the front fork again, and came in front of Liu Haizhong.

He Yuzhu took out a red cloth bag, took out some money, threw it on the road, then rode his bike and hid in a side road.

Liu Haizhong was walking on the road happily, holding his briefcase.

Because it was too early, there were almost no pedestrians on the road, and only Liu Haizhong was walking there.

"Hey, who threw the red cloth bag? You really have no sense of public morality."

Before he even saw the red cloth bag in front of him, he cursed and raised his leg to step over it.

With his legs raised in the air, Liu Haizhong looked at the red cloth bag curiously.

Liu Haizhong immediately stopped, looked around, and when he found that there was no one there, he immediately squatted down and picked up the red cloth bag.

Open the cloth bag and take a look.

I have money and a few coupons.

Take a closer look.

"Oh my god, isn't this a coupon for Lao Mo's restaurant?"

Liu Haizhong counted them and there were three in total.

"Damn, that's great. I can go to Lao Mo's restaurant. I'm so lucky today."

Liu Haizhong felt happy. He put the red cloth bag in his pocket and continued walking forward.

After seeing Liu Haizhong put away the ticket, He Yuzhu also walked back happily, because he still had to go to work.

Just like that, Liu Haizhong fell completely into He Yuzhu's trap.
