Comfortable life in Siheyuan

"Qingshan, didn't we have a chicken today? Why did you buy another one?" Feng Yu asked curiously.

"I bought this for my brothers and sisters. My sister-in-law just gave birth to a baby, so as her younger brother, I also want to show my appreciation!" Liu Qingshan explained with a smile.

"So when are you going to send this old hen over, or are you going to keep it for now?"

"I'll go over there tomorrow when I have time. Just leave it there for now. There's no need to untie the rope."

"Okay, you haven't met your nephew yet, so it's time for you, his uncle, to go and see him." Feng Yu said with a smile.

The few of them were chatting happily when Nan Yi suddenly ran out and said with a grin, "Chef He, we're still chatting. Please come in!"

"Don't be so polite, I'll be there in a moment!" Sha Zhu said with a smile.

"Who's being polite with you? Hurry up. Do you still want to eat? You two bought so much. You want to tire someone to death!" After Nan Yi came, he was busy all day picking, washing vegetables in the yard.

"Okay! It's my destiny to work!" Looking at a room full of women holding children, Sha Zhu teased with a smile.

"I'll go and help too! I can help light a fire!" Liu Qingshan said with a smile.

"You are quite self-aware!" Nan Yi said with a smile.

The three grown men started busying themselves in the kitchen.

Several women in the room also started chatting.

"Sister-in-law, have you been promoted to a regular employee now? I remember you have been working in the factory for more than two years!" Feng Yu asked Tian Xiuyun.

"It was transferred, just now. Now my child and I both have city household registration." Tian Xiuyun said happily.

"That's great. It's really inconvenient these days without a fixed quantity." Ding Qiunan said happily.

"Yes, it's because the child is still young, and Zhuzi and I both have jobs and can earn a living at the factory, otherwise life would not be easy." Tian Xiuyun said with emotion.

"Just look at Xu Damao and you will know. Xu Damao used to live such a comfortable life. Ever since he found Sun Xiaoyan, Xu Damao is not so wealthy anymore!" Feng Yu said in a low voice.

"This guy is not a good person. When I first arrived, he often went to the infirmary. It was only after Nan Yi warned him several times that he behaved himself." Ding Qiunan said with contempt.

"Yeah, it's a pity for Sister Xiao'e. Her best years of youth have been wasted on a bastard." Tian Xiuyun said angrily.

"It seems that he rarely goes to the countryside during this period? What's going on?" Feng Yu asked.

"He only went there once during the National Day holiday. Now there is another projectionist in the factory, so he doesn't have to go there every time." Tian Xiuyun explained.

"By the way, Liu Guangtian's wife is pregnant. Didn't Second Uncle and the others go to see her?"

"I haven't heard that they went to see it. No one in the hospital is talking about it now."

"The second uncle in your courtyard is really amazing! He has three sons, and two of them ran away. This is a joke in our courtyard." Qiu Nan said with a smile.

"Yes, living in this courtyard, there is really endless excitement to see." Tian Xiuyun said with emotion.

"Sister-in-law, are you still taking care of the old lady in the backyard? The old lady doesn't talk to people in the yard anymore, and she acts like an old god every day." Feng Yu asked.

"The old lady has always been taken care of by her uncle's family. Her five-guarantee subsidy is collected by her aunt. My husband and I usually cook delicious food for her and often take Niu Niu out to play. She will also come to my house during the day to see Niu Niu." Tian Xiuyun said.

"Oh! I thought it was you two who were taking care of him. Usually he calls Zhuzi brother and calls him his grandson." Feng Yu said with a smile.

"The old lady really treats him as her grandson and is very nice to him. We don't mind having such an old lady. Besides, she is so old and can still take care of us for a few more years!" Tian Xiuyun explained.

They chatted and laughed for a while before Sha Zhu came over with the dishes.

"The dish is here, shredded pork with fish flavor." Sha Zhu said with a smile.

"This is Chef He's cooking. Our Nan Yi is not good at Sichuan cuisine."

"That is required."

After a while, all the dishes were served. Sha Zhu smiled and scooped a bowl of chicken soup for his wife first.

"Come here, this is the wine that Nan Yi brought. Let's share it with him today." Sha Zhu greeted Liu Qingshan.

"You should drink less. I'm the busiest person today, so I should drink more." Nan Yi said bluntly.

"It's all the same, all the same. Let's raise a glass first and welcome Qingshan home."

"cheers!"

The lunch was so sumptuous that the kids in the next yard were almost crying with greed.

After dinner, the men drank a lot, and Feng Yu and Ding Qiunan cleaned up the table together. After chatting for a while, they went home to rest.

In the afternoon, Liu's father and mother came back early. After all, they didn't know that Liu Qingshan would come back today, and they were still a little worried about Xiaoyu.

When they got home, they saw Liu Qingshan sleeping soundly on the bed. His mother asked quietly, "When did Qingshan come back? Are you tired?"

"Mom, Qingshan came back this morning. He just had a drink with Zhuzi and Nanyi, and he has been sleeping for a while." Feng Yu said with a smile.

"This kid drinks as soon as he comes back and doesn't even bother to spend time with the children. He reeks of alcohol and Xixi and Nannan don't want to get close to him." Father Liu said with a stern face.

"Dad, Qingshan has been very tired recently, so it would be good for him to relax today. Oh! By the way, Qingshan specially bought an old hen today and said he would send it to my sister-in-law tomorrow." Feng Yu said hurriedly.

"It won't take him that long to deliver it there by bike tomorrow. Is he going to rest tomorrow?" asked Liu's father.

"I don't know. I should take a break for two days. I've been on a business trip for so long."

"You should take a rest too. I'll make some porridge for you guys tonight and call you when it's time for dinner."

Liu Qingshan slept for several hours, but was still woken up by the urge to pee.

In the evening, after drinking two large bowls of porridge in his parents' room, Liu Qingshan felt his bloated stomach and went out for a walk.

"Brother Qingshan, why don't you come out for a walk?" Liu Qingshan was stopped when he reached the entrance of the alley.

"Yes, my wife is at home taking care of the children." Liu Qingshan then saw clearly who was coming. It turned out to be Xu Damao's wife, Sun Xiaoyan.

"Brother Qingshan, sister-in-law has something to ask you, and I don't know if it's inconvenient for you!" Sun Xiaoyan said a little embarrassedly.

"Sister-in-law, if you have anything to say, just ask directly. Don't be polite." Liu Qingshan said with a smile.

"Then sister-in-law, I have something to say straight away. I want to ask if your factory is still recruiting? I'm alone at home with nothing to do, and I want to find a job, even a temporary job!" Sun Xiaoyan said with a smile.

"Sister-in-law, I just came back from a business trip and I don't know if the factory is still recruiting. Why don't you talk to Brother Damao about this? He is familiar with the leaders in the factory and can talk to them. He should be able to help you find a job." Liu Qingshan said with a smile.

"He doesn't have that ability. He can only brag and doesn't do any real work. You can't count on him for anything!"

Liu Qingshan smiled awkwardly and didn't say anything. At this moment, he regretted coming out for a walk.
