Siheyuan: Cooking journey

If the examination found that he was fine but I had problems, how would I have the face to face him? How would I have the qualifications to stay with him? After all, I am an infertile woman.

"Silly girl, what do you mean by that?"

Mother Lou hugged her distressedly and comforted her softly:

"Don't let your imagination run wild. Let's not investigate. It's common to not have children after a few years of marriage. Sometimes, it depends on fate. When fate arrives, children will come naturally. Besides, Zhuzi doesn't care about this matter and has never mentioned a word. He is a man who values ​​friendship and loyalty. Don't let your imagination run wild."

Lou Xiao'e hugged her mother tightly, tears falling like beads from a broken string:

"Because he said nothing about it, I felt even worse. I was really afraid that I wouldn't be able to have a child, and I was really afraid that I would have to leave him because of this. I couldn't bear to leave him..."

Dinner has begun.

Father Lou sipped his wine and seemed to be in a good mood;

Mother Lou behaved in a gentle manner, and on the surface, she showed no signs of fluctuation;

Lou Xiao'e's eyes were red, she lowered her head and ate her rice bite by bite.

He Yuzhu saw it and sighed inwardly.

Every time I come to Lou's house recently, she always looks like this.

He Yuzhu could roughly guess that she had cried in front of Lou's mother because of the child.

He had no good solution for this.

He also comforted her many times, saying that it didn't matter whether she had children or not, and he didn't mind.

I even used examples from the older generation to enlighten her, but she didn't seem to listen. Instead, she felt even more stressed.

After dinner.

As usual, it's time to go back.

Father and Mother Lou stood up to see them off.

Lou Xiao'e lowered her head and walked over slowly.

He Yuzhu held her hand, squeezed it gently, and said softly:

"I have something to do. Please wait here for a while."

Lou Xiao'e couldn't help but look up and looked at him puzzledly.

He Yuzhu smiled at her gently, without much explanation, and turned to Lou's father and mother and said seriously:

"Uncle and aunt, there is something very important, can we talk about it?"

Father Lou was slightly startled and subconsciously looked at Mother Lou.

Mother Lou frowned slightly, and couldn't help but glance at Lou Xiao'e, thought for a moment, and nodded with a smile:

"Let's go to the study and talk..."

Important things, very important things.

Watching the three people walk into the study, I thought of He Yuzhu's serious expression.

A strong sense of fear suddenly surged in Lou Xiao'e's heart.

My eyes were hot and tears couldn't stop falling.

He, he, is he going to abandon me!

In the study.

He Yuzhu got straight to the point:

"Uncle and aunt, the current situation is quite serious. I wonder if you understand."

Mother Lou looked at him in surprise. She thought he would talk about Xiao'e, but she didn't expect it to be about something else.

"Know something."

Mother Lou thought about it, nodded, and asked curiously, "What do you want to say?"

Father Lou stood aside in silence, listening quietly.

"The current situation has placed great restrictions on businessmen. Auntie, have you ever considered letting the entire Lou family immigrate overseas to develop abroad? There aren't so many restrictions out there, and the market is vast and free. With the strength of the Lou family, once they go abroad, they will surely thrive and develop better."

He Yuzhu directly proposed to go abroad and gave up the unnecessary strategy that he had originally considered - persuading them to discard the porcelain.

Because it's simply not possible.

Over the years, he has had an intuitive understanding of the Lou family, which is a big family.

Lou Xiao'e's parents are the heads of the family. Although they are not the richest people in the city, they are also first-rate.

With so many porcelain pieces to support a whole family, no one would be stupid enough to throw away these belongings unless they were mentally ill.

This is just like advising entrepreneurs like Jack Ma and Pony Ma to give up all their assets and live a hard life in modern times. It is not a question of reality or not. Others will just think you have a problem with your brain.

"Going abroad..."

Father Lou's eyes lit up and he nodded in agreement, "So, going abroad for business is a good idea."

Mother Lou frowned and asked, "What you want to talk about is to persuade us to go abroad for business?"

"Yes."

He Yuzhu nodded frankly and said seriously: "Auntie, it would be better for the Lou family to go out. It is also the best choice. Staying here will only lead to eating up all the money."

Mother Lou is a smart and sensible woman, as can be seen from the fact that she is willing to let the daughter of the Lou family marry a member of the working class.

He Yuzhu firmly believed that Lou's mother would not refuse this proposal.

In addition to these reasons, more importantly, the Lou family currently has no business.

Public-private partnership is a special system. Whether participating in management or simply receiving dividends, there is a certain time limit.

Once this period has passed, the joint venture will no longer have any connection with the original owners.

By now, all of the Lou family’s joint ventures had exceeded this deadline, and they were left with nothing except a room full of porcelain.

This is also the reason why He Yuzhu feels the time is ripe.

Earlier, the Lou family was unfamiliar with the situation and would not listen to what was said. But the key point was that they had the business in hand and certainly would not be willing to give it up.

Now, everything is just right, both in terms of timing and time.

"I think Xiao He is absolutely right." The more Lou's father thought about it, the more he agreed with it. He said excitedly,

"Going out is indeed the best thing for us. Although we don't have to worry about food and clothing now, we have no business and no income. We can't just sit there and eat up all the money. If we continue like this, we will soon go bankrupt."

Mother Lou didn't say anything, her brows were furrowed, and she was lost in thought.

He Yuzhu looked at her and added, pretending to sigh:

“Auntie, if you go out, it will be of great benefit to Xiao’e and me;

Xiao'e and I have been married for many years, but we have no children;

Although I don’t care, and I think as long as we live a peaceful and tranquil life and accompany each other, it doesn’t really matter whether we have children or not;

But Xiao'e was very concerned about this matter and felt a lot of psychological pressure;

I consulted the hospital privately, and they said that only some simple infertility tests can be done in China;

The medical conditions abroad are relatively better. After you go abroad, I can help you find an authoritative hospital;

When the time comes, Xiao'e and I will come to you and do a comprehensive examination. If it can be treated, then we will treat it. If it can't be treated, we will let go of this idea as soon as possible and consider adopting a child."

Mother Lou looked at him with some surprise and asked:

"You and Xiao'e are not going out together?"

"Correct."

He Yuzhu said seriously: "Xiao'e and I have jobs and a stable life, so we won't go out. Don't tell her about this for now. Contact us after you find a suitable hospital..."

As he was speaking, the door of the study was suddenly pushed open.

He Yuzhu stopped talking abruptly. Lou Xiaoe rushed over with tears in her eyes, threw herself into his arms, hugged him tightly, and said with a sob: "Can we go out together and go to the hospital for a check-up? I want to have a baby for you, I really want to..."

He Yuzhu felt soft in his heart and stroked her back, feeling very hesitant.

Although he wanted to persuade the Lou family to leave, he never thought of leaving himself.

I didn’t think about it when I first came into this world, and after living for so many years, I have even less of this thought.
