Siheyuan: Spring and Autumn

Ten days later it was the weekend, and Yi Zhonghai and his wife left the courtyard early in the morning without telling anyone where they were going.

They returned just before dinner time, and they were accompanied by a five-year-old boy, who, except for being thin, had thick eyebrows, big eyes, and a delicate look, and looked quite good.

"Uncle, who is this child?"

Yan Bugui was guarding the door. When he saw Yi Zhonghai walking into the yard holding a child and an old lady holding the child's hand, he asked in surprise.

"Uncle, this is my adopted son Xiaoyuan, whose full name is Yi Boyuan. Xiaoyuan, this is the uncle of the courtyard, come and say hello."

The little boy was a little shy, and said with a red face: "Hello, Third Uncle."

"Oh, oh, haha, hello, Xiaoyuan. Oh, uncle, congratulations, this child is growing up really well."

"Uncle, let's hold a meeting for the whole hospital tonight. I'll introduce Xiao Yuan to everyone. Can you notify them for me?"

"Okay, I'll let them know right away."

The aunt happily brought the child home, held his head and said kindly: "Xiaoyuan, from now on, this is your home. You don't have to worry about not having enough food. Do you understand?"

"Got it. Thank you, Mom, and Dad."

The child named Xiaoyuan held the aunt's hand and spoke intimately. His voice was childish and sounded pleasant no matter how you listened to it.

"Hey, good boy, sit down and talk with your dad while mommy goes to cook for you."

Although it was not the first time that their children called them mom and dad, the old couple were still excited when they entered the house.

At this time, the deaf old lady also walked into the house and sat down. Looking at Yi Boyuan, a complex look flashed in her eyes, and then a kind look emerged.

"Xiaoyuan, this is grandma."

"Hello grandma."

The deaf old lady smiled cheerfully and said, "Good, good, Xiaoyuan is good. Oh, Xiaoyuan is really good looking."

As she spoke, she took out a jade pendant from her pocket and said, "Xiaoyuan, come here, let grandma help you put the jade pendant on."

Yi Boyuan looked at Yi Zhonghai and saw him nod, so he walked up to her and asked her to tie it around his neck.

"Thank you grandma."

Hearing this, the deaf old lady immediately smiled and said, "You're welcome."

Looking at her, she seemed very happy.

The news that Yi Zhonghai adopted a child quickly spread throughout the hospital.

Jia family.

Jia Zhang slapped the table and said in a hateful voice, "Yi Zhonghai, this old, useless man, is really a piece of shit. As soon as our Dongxu passed away, he brought back a little, useless man. He will definitely not take care of our family anymore. He is really heartless and ungrateful."

Qin Huairu's face was not looking good: "Mom, this is because he knows that there is no one in our family who can take care of him in his old age."

"Humph, why not? We still have Banggen."

"Are you really willing to take care of him in his old age?"

"I……"

Jia Zhang paused and twisted her lips, "He deserves to be supported in his old age. When Dongxu was alive, I thought that our family could make ends meet. His family has a house, savings, and a workstation. His wife is in poor health and will not live long. The old lady also has a house, but she is so old and will probably die soon. When Yi Zhonghai gets old, these things will belong to our Banggeng. He will have money and a job, and we can just give him a meal. I never thought that Yi Zhonghai would change his mind as soon as Dongxu passed away. Our Banggeng has lost a lot of things."

Having said this, she slapped the table angrily again.

Hearing her say this, Qin Huairu's face became even worse, but she also knew that the result could not be changed: "Okay, don't think so much, let's just live our own lives."

He family.

He Yumei said: "Zhu Zi, it seems that this old man wants to wear it."

"Humph, he should have adopted a child a long time ago. It's not good enough to just think about having a ready-made child."

"You are being stubborn now. If our family had not severed ties with him, he would never have accepted it. With you here, you will be another person to take care of the old man."

"Why are you bringing up this trivial matter?"

He Yuzhu's face turned red and he looked a little unhappy, so He Yumei didn't continue, giving him face.

Just after dinner, the whole institute meeting was held again.

Everyone in the yard looked curiously at the child held in the arms of an old lady. They saw that his face was pale, but he looked quite handsome.

I thought to myself that this old man was really realistic. When his trusted elderly care provider Jia Dongxu died and his plan failed, he simply adopted a child.

It is not uncommon to have a pale face these days. Not to mention the welfare institutions, even among the residents in the capital, very few people can have enough to eat every day.

"Dear neighbors, as you can see, my husband and I have no children. Today we adopted a child from an orphanage. His name is Xiaoyuan. His full name is Yi Boyuan. In the future, we would like to ask you to take good care of him. Thank you all."

"Congratulations."

"Congratulations, uncle."

Everyone in the courtyard congratulated them and felt relieved. Now that Yi Zhonghai had his own child, he would definitely not favor the Jia family anymore, and everyone's life would be easier.

As for the two adults in the Jia family, they had complicated emotions, especially Jia Zhang, who looked at Yi Boyuan with hatred and unwillingness in her eyes. She felt that it was Yi Boyuan who stole her family's things.

However, her son was gone, so she didn’t dare to get pricked and could only endure it.

As for the stick jokes, I have no idea what they are yet, I'm just having a lot of fun playing with them.

"Now, supplies are tight, and I can't afford to treat everyone to a meal, so I bought some eggs, five for my family, and will ask Uncle San to help distribute them later."

We are in a difficult period now, and Yi Zhonghai put a lot of thought into getting these eggs.

"it is good."

"You're welcome."

"Thank you, sir."

The name Yi Boyuan was given by Yi Zhonghai at the request of Qin Zheng.

When Yi Zhonghai and his wife saw the child for the first time in the welfare home, they liked him immediately. After thinking about it for two days, they made a decision. They went to the factory to talk to Qin Zheng and asked him to come up with a name.

Qin Zheng thought for a while and named him Yi Boyuan, and told Yi Zhonghai that this name was taken from "Book of Jin": "Duke Zhou assisted in government affairs with his own relatives, had profound virtue, and his grace was far-reaching. He was extremely loyal, benevolent, filial, and respectful." Therefore, Yi Zhonghai usually called the child "Xiaoyuan".

Of course, Yi Zhonghai couldn't understand the origin of the name Qin Zheng said, it was like listening to a foreign language. However, when he heard the words "filial piety" in it, he thought that the name was quite good and sounded very pleasant.

Of course, life cannot be completely smooth sailing. On the second day after Yi Boyuan entered the courtyard, the Yi and Jia families had a quarrel.
