Comfortable life in Siheyuan

Chapter 341 He Daqing Returns to Retire

After finishing things on the train, it was already noon when the two arrived at Bai's house.

Li Weidong had been here several times before. He walked up to the door and knocked on it with ease. "Knock, knock! Knock!"

After knocking several times, there was finally a response from the door.

"Who is it? Who's coming here at this time for lunch?" Someone was mumbling inside when the door opened.

The person who opened the door was a woman, probably in her early thirties.

"Hello! We are here to look for He Daqing. Please ask him to come out for a moment." Li Weidong walked to the front and said to people enthusiastically.

"Who are you to him? Why have I never seen you before?" The woman frowned and said impatiently.

"Just go and call someone if I tell you to. Why are you talking so much nonsense?" Sha Zhu had never liked the Bai family in the first place, and he felt even more upset when he saw their current attitude.

"Husband, husband. Two people came looking for that dead old man and are now making trouble at our doorstep." The woman turned around and started shouting.

"Why are we causing trouble? What happened to us? Come on, explain it clearly." Sha Zhu became even angrier now.

A man soon came out of the yard. Sha Zhu didn't know him, but Li Weidong recognized him at a glance as the second son of the White Widow.

"Officer Li is here. He Daqing is not at home today. He went to the restaurant in the morning and will not be back until the evening. Why don't you come in and wait for a while?" The man was very polite, but Sha Zhu felt uncomfortable with what he said.

I raised these two brothers and helped them get married, but in the end, they didn't even want to call me uncle.

"Okay, let's go out and look for it ourselves." Li Weidong took Sha Zhu and left.

The two of them walked towards the restaurant where He Daqing used to work. When they arrived at the place, before they even looked around, they saw the gray-haired He Daqing at the door. A group of people were playing chess there.

"Dad, haven't you retired? Why are you still here?" Sha Zhu hurried over.

"Zhuzi, Weidong, why are you here? Brothers, this is my son and son-in-law, we both live in Sijiu City." He Daqing happily introduced the two of them to others.

"Dad, we are here to take you home to live with you in your old age. We just went to the Bai family, but they told us you were not at home before we even got in." Li Weidong said with a smile.

"Yes, your eldest grandson is not a child anymore, and I think your skills cannot be wasted. I have only learned half of it, and you have to go back and teach him yourself." Sha Zhu joked with a smile.

"That's right, brothers. I'll go back with them first, and you guys continue here." He Daqing said something to a few people, then stood up and took the two of them away.

Along the way, He Daqing also expressed his concerns about his background, and was completely relieved after hearing Li Weidong's assurance.

"Okay, I'll go back with you guys right now. I didn't want to stay in the Bai family for a long time. Those two brats are really ungrateful. Fortunately, I have always been on guard against them and never taught them this skill."

Widow Bai had been trying to persuade her two sons to learn cooking skills from He Daqing for many years, but He Daqing only taught them some big pot dishes and home cooking. He didn't miss any other skills.

But just this is enough for the two brothers to get married and live together.

When he arrived at the Bai family, He Daqing took out his bag, packed his things, and left without saying anything.

The two brothers of the Bai family were both in the room at this time, quietly watching He Daqing walking away.

"Brother, He Daqing just left like that?"

"Our mother is gone, if he doesn't leave, will you take care of him in his old age?"

"He's not our father, why should we take care of him?"

On the other side, He Daqing took Sha Zhu and Li Weidong to find a hotel to stay in.

Once he leaves this time, it is unlikely that he will come back, and He Daqing also has some things to deal with.

After checking in, the two followed He Daqing for the whole afternoon and completed all the necessary procedures before finally going to the hotel.

Today's dinner was much more sumptuous. He Daqing personally cooked a few dishes and the two of them ate very happily.

"Dad, your skills haven't declined at all. I thought you were old and had lost your skills." Sha Zhu said with a smile.

"You know what, this dish is really delicious. It's much better than my wife's." Li Weidong also said.

"Yu Shui didn't follow others to learn. In fact, she has good talent. Just looking at her, she is much better than many people." He Daqing said.

"That's enough. She is a high school student and has a good job now. She doesn't need to suffer this." Sha Zhu said.

"Indeed, this is a tough job after all. It's really not suitable for a girl to learn this," He Daqing also said.

They chatted for a long time. He Daqing also asked about some things about the Siheyuan. After knowing that Yi Zhonghai's sons were married, he was still a little unhappy.

"That old, extinct family now has a successor. God is really blind!"

"What can we do? Yi Xiaojun is a decent person. This is probably his fate." Sha Zhu said.

"What about the Jia family? Is that old hag Jia Zhang dead?" He Daqing asked with his eyes drooping.

"She's not dead, but she looks older than you now. You haven't been back to the courtyard for so many years, and she was chased back to the countryside. She only came back to the courtyard when Banggeng got married a while ago. Now her legs are lame."

"What's going on? Isn't she several years younger than me?"

Sha Zhu told him the whole story in detail. The three of them stayed in the hotel for one night and took the train back to Sijiu City early the next morning.

On the train back, I didn't encounter any trouble, but of course there was no shortage of Buddhas.

When several people stepped into the courtyard with bags of all sizes, Jia Zhang was the first to be stunned.

"He Daqing, why are you back? Why did Sha Zhu bring you back?" Jia Zhang's eyes widened with disbelief.

"My son took me back home to take care of me in my old age, isn't that what's right? What's wrong with your legs? Why are you still limping? You should at least use a proper walking stick. This broken tree stick won't do!" He Daqing's words were more poisonous than Sha Zhu's. He made Jia Zhangshi so angry that she almost died as soon as he opened his mouth.

"Didn't you run away with the widow? Why didn't she provide for you in your old age? Now you are coming back to depend on your own son!" Jia Zhang was not a pushover either. She showed no mercy when she insulted others.

"Other people's sons are not as close as my own. Besides, my grandchildren are here. If I don't come back, where can I go? I'm not like some people who have no one to take care of them in their old age and still beg for mercy."

"You are a widow who is trying to frame someone, and you still have the nerve to criticize me? Where does you get the nerve to do that? I live in my own home, is it your turn to say anything about me?" Jia Zhang's face turned red with anger.

"I didn't say anything about you, why are you arguing? My son asked me to come back to live with him in his old age, why are you so dissatisfied?" He Daqing said without even looking at him and walked back home.

Jia Zhang is feeling extremely unbalanced. She has worked so hard for the Jia family, but in the end a bunch of ungrateful people emerged.

He Daqing has been living a carefree life outside for so many years, and his son and daughter have never taken care of him. Now someone is supporting him in his old age. Why?
