Siheyuan: Five mouths waiting for food at the beginning

Go back one day

Bang Geng stayed in bed early in the morning. Today was the day he took his wife to the hospital for a check-up, so he asked Qin Huairu to ask for a day off for him. It was so hard that he didn't have to go to work in the morning, so he had to sleep in.

Jia Zhang was reluctant to call Bang Geng. His precious grandson must be very tired from washing vegetables every day. What's wrong with taking a nap?

When Bang Geng got up and was about to go out, many aunties had already gathered in the middle courtyard. Even Liu Haizhong was walking around the courtyard with his left hand six and right hand seven. The doctor asked him to move more.

"Where is Banggeng taking his wife?" Aunt Three, the queen of gossip, could no longer hold back.

Before Bang Geng could answer, Jia Zhang, who was sewing shoe soles next to him, could no longer hide her pride, "Of course I went to check. Didn't you see that my granddaughter-in-law is already pregnant?"

Jia Zhang also told Bang Geng, "Drive slowly on the road, be careful, and come back early after the inspection. Grandma has bought meat early in the morning. It's all big fat slices of meat that you like to eat."

Several aunts sat together and gossiped, "It seems that your belly is getting a little big. Congratulations to your sister-in-law from the Jia family. You will have a great-grandson so soon. This is unique in the compound."

"Yes, sister-in-law of the Jia family, congratulations, you are so blessed. This is four generations living under one roof, not many people can do that."

The corners of Jia Zhang's mouth were almost split to the back of her head. She said, "You can do it too." After saying that, Jia Zhang regretted it.

Sure enough, the atmosphere suddenly became solemn, and the other aunts looked unhappy.

Jia Zhang then realized how much she had said.

A mother has no family, let alone four generations living together, it is hard to even have a son. This is not just rubbing salt into the wound, this is cutting the wound with a knife.

The only person the second aunt cares about is her eldest son. She has a granddaughter, but there is no sign of a grandson yet.

The situation is similar in the third aunt's family. The eldest son had a daughter a few years ago, but the second son has been married for several years and there has been no news. During the examination, it was said that he was malnourished and needed to be recuperated, and there is no sign of a great-grandson in the foreseeable future.

The only possible person is Aunt Chen. She has many grandchildren and she herself is not very old. Although Zhao Shanhe and the others are not her biological sons, she has long treated them as her own sons. She was only happy after hearing what Jia Zhang said.

The first, second and third aunts immediately formed a united front to attack Jia Zhang. Jia Zhang is so shameless. You don't have it because you are unlucky.

Especially when the aunts were furious, she was even more proud. Anyway, she didn't offend the Zhao family, so she didn't care about you guys. Her family now has the Zhao family as a backer.

The first aunt was defeated first. Her poor fighting ability came from a lack of confidence. The second and third aunts were very strong.

The second aunt was the first to rant, "Ms. Jia Zhang, you are destined to be a jinx. First you killed old Jia, and now you killed young Jia as well. You old widow."

Jia Zhang said that it doesn't matter what you say now. If you said this ten years earlier, you might still care about "I will have a great-grandson soon, but you don't."

The third aunt started, "You are an old widow, and your whole family is destined to be widows."

Jia Zhang: "I will have a great-grandson soon, and you don't. You are jealous of me."

The first, second and third aunts took the benches and left. If they continued squatting here, Jia Zhang would be pissed to death. How could this old hag be allowed to hold her great-grandson?

After Banggeng brought his fat wife to the hospital, they went for a check-up. Although he was not happy at first, you have to admit that Banggeng still has his merits, that is, he is good to his family. He is quite nice to his fat wife and stayed with her while they were waiting.

Finally, at noon, I got the news that she was not pregnant. Banggeng asked the doctor, "But my wife's belly is getting big."

The doctor said, "Have you ever thought that your wife has gained weight again? Being too fat can affect pregnancy. She should lose weight to make it easier to conceive."

Bang Geng looked at his wife again after hearing what the doctor said. His wife was fat to begin with, and now she even has no neck, as if she has gained weight. "Doctor, are you saying that she is too fat to get pregnant?"

"I'm wondering how your ears look like. It's because you're too fat that it's hard to get pregnant, not because you can't get pregnant. And pregnancy has something to do with both men and women. How long have you been married?"

"Two or three months."

"It's normal, don't worry, you are still young."

Banggeng’s excitement about becoming a father was gone, he didn’t expect this result. After coming out, he looked at his wife and sighed.

Pang Ya immediately assured Bang Geng, "Bang Geng, don't worry, I will lose weight immediately from today on, and I will definitely let you be my father."

When Jia Zhang saw that the two people who came back were both dejected, she knew that the result was not good, but she still asked without giving up. The main reason was that she spoke too harshly in the morning, and what if a miracle happened?

"Grandma, I'm not pregnant, I just got fat," Pang Ya said and lowered her head. Then she remembered something and raised her head and said, "Grandma, don't worry, I will lose weight as soon as possible and make sure you have a great-grandson."

What can Jia Zhang say? Pang Ya's family is stronger than theirs, and Pang Ya has also promised to lose weight and give him a great-grandson. What else can she say? If she had known this in the morning, she would not have been so quick to talk. It is difficult to take back the boast she has made. She should keep a low profile in the next few days.

It seems that Pang Ya has made up her mind to lose weight. She didn't eat a single bite of the big slice of fatty meat cooked for lunch, and even ate only half of her usual meal.

The reason why Pang Ya made up her mind was very simple. She loved Banggeng, especially since Banggeng treated her well after they got married. She didn't want to let Banggeng down. It turned out that the power of love is great.

In the afternoon, they both went to work as usual. In the evening, Pang Ya went to her mother's house to see if she could get the stalks to the meat processing plant.

The father-in-law said he was powerless as he was about to retire and he was not one of the top leaders in the factory. If the daughters of the top leaders were in his hands, many people would rush to curry favor with him and his daughter would have been married long ago. Now it was Banggeng's turn and he would have been compensated with a bicycle.

Bang Geng was very happy yesterday, because he was going to be a father as his grandma said, and he was working in a meat processing factory. But today, nothing happened.

Pang Ya is very determined. She lost weight at a speed visible to the naked eye. However, her base weight is too large. Compared with other people, she is still fat. I believe that if she maintains this speed, she will be able to lose weight by the end of the year.

Liu Guangqi is still valued by the master, mainly because Liu Guangqi's theoretical knowledge learning is too awesome. We can't say that others are not good enough just because Zhao Shanhe is the protagonist. The technical secondary school students of that era were really awesome.

But the master's patience was worn out day by day. Liu Guangqi's talent was the opposite of his father's. His father Liu Haizhong was good at hands-on work but couldn't speak clearly.

As for Liu Guangqi's theoretical knowledge, there is no doubt that he has mastered the principles of a first-level worker in a short period of time. However, his hands-on ability can be summed up in one word. Every time, his eyes can learn, but his hands cannot keep up.

No matter how hard he practiced, his hands just couldn't keep up. As more and more workpieces were scrapped, the master's enthusiasm faded, and he returned to doing odd jobs.
