Comfortable life in Siheyuan

Liu Guangfu went to find his second brother and learned that his second sister-in-law was pregnant. But the second uncle finally couldn't lower his dignity to find Liu Guangtian.

After the National Day, Liu Qingshan finally ended his business trip and returned to the courtyard with his luggage.

"Oh! Chief Liu has finished his business trip." Yan Jiecheng was standing at the door, strolling in the front yard with his wife Yu Li.

"Don't call me section chief in the hospital. Now that I'm back, let me work!" Liu Qingshan joked with a smile.

"Isn't this showing respect?" Yan Jiecheng explained.

"Your wife's belly is quite big. She must be six or seven months pregnant, right?" Liu Qingshan asked with a smile.

"It's almost six months! Didn't the doctor say that I should exercise regularly?" Yan Jiecheng smiled happily. It was not difficult to guess that taking a walk in the yard was also a way of showing off.

"That's great. You guys continue exercising. I'll go back first."

"Brother Liu, goodbye!"

Liu Qingshan kept nodding and greeting people along the way.

I had just arrived home and before I had time to sit down and drink a sip of water, Nan Yi and his family walked in.

"Qingshan, when did you come back?" Nan Yi asked with a smile.

"I just entered the house and you arrived." Liu Qingshan said with a smile.

"Aren't your parents going to your eldest brother's house today? So Nan Yi and I brought the children here early, so the three children can play together." Ding Qiunan explained with a smile.

"That's perfect. We can have lunch at home. I'll go buy some vegetables later." Liu Qingshan said with a smile.

"Okay, why don't we invite Zhuzi's family along as well? It will be more lively with more people," Feng Yu suggested.

"I have no objection. I can have someone to help me with the work." Nan Yi raised his hand in agreement.

"Okay, I'll go to the central courtyard and call Zhuzi's family." Liu Qingshan stood up and walked out.

When they arrived at the central courtyard, before they even reached Zhuzi's door, an old man called out to Liu Qingshan enthusiastically.

"Qingshan, you're back! This business trip is quite long, isn't it?" Yi Zhonghai said with a smile.

"Yes, uncle. This business trip will take more than two months." Liu Qingshan said casually.

"Qingshan, you are the first college student in our school. If our Xiaojun needs tutoring in the future, could you please help him?" Yi Zhonghai asked with a smile.

"No problem, uncle. There's nothing Xiaojun can't do. I can come over as long as I have time." Liu Qingshan agreed immediately.

"That's great, it's settled! If Xiaojun doesn't know how to do something in the future, I'll ask him to come to you."

"Okay, Xiaojun is a very sensible kid, and I like him very much. But I am on business trips quite often. If I am not at home, you can also look for Uncle San. After all, teachers are more professional when it comes to teaching." Liu Qingshan reminded tactfully.

"That's true. If you're not at home, we'll go find Uncle Three. We can't leave Teacher Yan idle."

After the two finished talking, Liu Qingshan walked straight to Zhuzi's house. As soon as he entered the door, he saw Sha Zhu working hard on the chopping board.

"What a delicious dish this is! I just got back and I'm so lucky to have such a treat!" Liu Qingshan joked with a smile.

"You're back. Your legs are so long. I've just had so much trouble to nourish my wife, and you managed to catch up." Sha Zhu turned around and saw that it was Liu Qingshan, and responded with a smile.

"That's right. I have always been blessed. Don't worry, bring the chicken to my house at noon and we can eat it!" Liu Qingshan said domineeringly.

"What are you doing? What are you doing? My goodness, isn't it a bit too much to even carry the basin with you?" Sha Zhu said with a smile.

"It's even worse, sister-in-law, hurry up and bring Niu Niu to my place, I don't want this man anymore!"

"Hey! You come here to show off. I'm afraid you have never seen my swordsmanship." Sha Zhu laughed.

"Stop talking nonsense, you two. Why don't you take a rest now that you're back?" Tian Xiuyun asked with a smile.

"I just got home and haven't even sat down yet! Nan Yi and his wife came over with their kids. I thought we should have dinner together so it will be more lively. Nan Yi said to call Zhuzi as well, otherwise he would be bored preparing the dishes alone!" Liu Qingshan explained.

"This stupid cook knows how to order people around. He won't touch anything except chicken soup today!" Sha Zhu scolded with a smile.

"You guys go directly over there, I'll go out to buy some vegetables." Liu Qingshan said with a smile.

"No! Let's go together. I can still take a break here!" Sha Zhu said with a smile.

"Sister-in-law, remember to open the east gate for us when you go to my house. Don't walk through the yard when you come back."

"Ming Zhi, if you buy a lot, you will definitely be hated. Wait for me for a moment, I will send the chicken and the casserole to Nan Yi and let him cook it first!" Sha Zhu said while giving a thumbs up.

Liu Qingshan was not in a hurry and went out to the yard to wait!

"Let's go, don't you want to ride a bike?" asked Sha Zhu.

"No, I've been riding for half a day this morning. I'll take the bus today."

The two took the bus and went directly to Chaoyang Vegetable Market.

"What are you going to do at noon? What are your specialties?" Liu Qingshan asked.

"Don't worry about what I will cook. Whatever you can buy, I'm not bragging. I can make sure you have a good meal." When talking about his cooking skills, Sha Zhu's face was filled with pride.

"Then I'll buy as much as I can. There are a lot of people here today, so I'll buy more!" Liu Qingshan said with a smile.

"Don't buy too much. There are plenty of vegetables in your yard. Just buy some fish and meat. Do you have enough meat coupons?" Sha Zhu advised.

"It's enough. During the time I'm on a business trip, my meat coupons are useless. We usually go to my sister to buy meat, and we can often buy bones that don't require coupons." Liu Qingshan's family usually goes directly to the meat processing plant for meat. As for the bones that don't require coupons, his second sister always asks people not to shave the meat too cleanly.

"Your house is still more comfortable. We only have such a small amount per month, it's not enough!" Sha Zhu said enviously.

"Don't be so annoying. Since you are in charge of the canteen's cooking, I don't believe you can't buy meat dishes without tickets." Liu Qingshan said with a look of disbelief.

"Hehe! You discovered this, and I thought you didn't know!"

The two of them talked as they walked, and soon they had a lot of things in their hands.

They didn't buy much pork, just half a pound of lean meat, so Sha Zhu could make fish-flavored pork shreds. Liu Qingshan also bought a piece of pork liver.

The two of them came a little late today, and there was no fat meat to be seen.

Liu Qingshan saw someone selling fish and bought a big silver carp, as well as some snails and clams.

"That's enough. You still have so many vegetables at home. It's enough for a few more people."

"Okay, I'll listen to you!" Liu Qingshan saw that these seafood didn't require tickets, so he simply bought a little more. He had no shortage of money.

Carrying things and walking out of the vegetable market, Liu Qingshan saw someone selling old hens. Thinking that his sister-in-law had just given birth to a child, he went over and asked for another old hen.

"You're not going to come over here. Didn't I bring a chicken over there at noon?" Sha Zhu asked in surprise.

"This is for you to eat. My sister-in-law just gave birth to a baby. This chicken is prepared for her. I'll send it to them tomorrow when I have time." Liu Qingshan explained.
