Siheyuan: Five mouths waiting for food at the beginning

Looking at the smiling Jia Zhang, Zhao Shanhe is still a little uncomfortable. He always feels that this Jia Zhang is too unreal. Jia Zhang should be that kind of old pious woman. How could she have such a kind face?

The more Jia Zhangshi acted like this, the more guilty Zhao Shanhe felt. Banggeng had only stolen a chicken once since he was a child. What child hasn't stolen something once or twice when they were young? He even often stole apples from his neighbor's house when he was a child.

He sent Banggeng to the poorest place, where he almost died. You know, the Jia family only has one child, and losing Banggeng is no different from the destruction of the family.

Although Banggeng now has a wife and a son, I heard that his health is still in trouble because of that incident. Although the doctor gave him supplements, some things cannot be restored.

And now Banggeng is still very motivated and doesn't associate with bad friends. I heard that I have always been a role model for Banggeng, who has always called me "uncle" affectionately since he was a child.

The more Zhao Shanhe thought about it, the more he felt like a beast. The first impression was so important. It was the TV show that ruined him.

"Mountains and rivers, mountains and rivers"

"What's wrong? Aunt Jia?"

"It's okay. Why are you in a daze? Come on, go in and have some tea. Qin Huairu will be ready soon. Let's eat together."

"No need to bother, just go and have your meal, Aunt Chen will have it ready soon, I'll go to Sha Zhu's house."

"Mom, who are you talking to? Bring the kids over for dinner."

Jia Zhang brought the child into the house and said, "Your brother-in-law is back. I talked to him for a while."

"Mom, why don't you invite people in for dinner? Bang Geng is now a manager. Mom, you haven't seen it, so you don't know how big that mall is.

I tell you that Bang Geng was able to become a manager only because Shanhe asked for it, otherwise Bang Geng would not be qualified to manage such a large shopping mall."

"I called him, but he didn't come. He went to Shazhu's house and said he had something to do."

"Okay, let's eat then."

"Huai Ru, speaking of Bang Geng being a manager, you should persuade him not to work all day and let him go home early. You know Bang Geng is not in good health. Don't let him become like his father and grandfather. How will you live then?"

"Okay, I'll advise Bang Geng later that work is important, but health is more important."

"It's not just Bang Geng, it's also you, Huairu. You don't look well. Why don't you quit your job at the steel mill, or ask your brother-in-law to find you a new job."

"What can I do over at Shanhe? They have appointed Banggeng as the manager, and the two girls are also training teachers. Wouldn't it be a burden to Banggeng if I go over there?

Banggeng also advised me not to do this and asked me to resign, but this is a job that Dongxu risked his life for, and I would be sorry to Dongxu if I lost it."

"Huai Ru, you are worthy of the Jia family. You still listen to the jokes. Otherwise, just resign. If you continue to endure, your health will collapse."

"Mom, let's stop talking and eat."

"Sister-in-law, are you home?" Zhao Shanhe called out first when they arrived at Sha Zhu's house.

"Home? Who is it?"

"I am Zhao Shanhe"

"Shanhe, you're here. Come in and sit down. Hehua, stop doing your homework and quickly pour tea for your Uncle Zhao."

Zhao Shanhe looked at Ma Dongmei's hands covered with flour and knew that she was kneading the dough. "Sister-in-law, you go ahead and knead the dough, then we can talk."

"Shanhe, wait a moment, I'll make peace with you soon."

"Uncle Zhao, have some tea." He Hua quickly poured him a cup of tea.

"In the blink of an eye, He Hua has grown up. You must study hard and get into a good university like your brother.

Use this money to buy some school supplies." Zhao Shanhe took out fifty yuan from his pocket and didn't give more.

"Uncle Zhao, I can't accept it."

"Don't be so polite to Uncle Zhao. Take it quickly. If you don't, Uncle Zhao will be angry." Zhao Shanhe stuffed the money into He Hua's hand.

"Mom, I'm back. Is dinner ready?" He Dong came back.

"It will be ready soon. You can chat with your Uncle Zhao first."

"Uncle Zhao, you're here," He Dong greeted Zhao Shanhe politely.

"Are you going out to play?"

"Well, Uncle Zhao, school is about to start, and I haven't been out much yet. My classmate asked me out, so we went out for a walk together."

"Good boy, not bad, not bad. You are as strong as a calf. Is the person who asked you out a boy or a girl? Are you dating someone?"

Zhao Shanhe hit He Dong on the chest for some unknown reason and asked this question naturally. Zhao Shanhe never expected that one day he would also be urging people to get married.

He Dong scratched his head shyly and said, "Uncle Zhao, I'm still young, not even 18, so there's no rush for a partner."

Zhao Shanhe then remembered that He Dong and An Bai were both born after the New Year, and went to school early, so they were only eighteen after the New Year.

"That's right. You're not even an adult yet, so it's a little early to find a partner now. So you should study hard and find a partner in college. Once you graduate, get married and let your mother have a grandchild sooner."

The more Zhao Shanhe looked at the son and daughter of Sha Zhu's family, the more he liked them. They were educated very well by Ma Dongmei. Not only were they good at studying, but they were also steady and polite.

Zhao Shanhe and He Dong were chatting here. He Hua went to the kitchen and then ran out. After a while, He Daqing came.

"Shanhe, now you're here, wait for me to cook you a few dishes and we can have a few drinks together."

It turned out that Ma Dongmei asked He Hua to call He Daqing, and He Daqing was in semi-retirement after attending the ceremony.

"Uncle He is not busy anymore. Aunt Chen is already working on it. I'll just say a few words to my sister-in-law and then leave."

"Shanhe, you finally come back once, you must have a few drinks, wait, I will be there soon."

"Uncle He, let's drink later. Third uncle has also made an appointment with me. I heard that second uncle is not doing well. I will go to check on him later. After checking on second uncle, we can have a few drinks, okay? You guys eat first."

"Okay, I'll prepare some snacks. Come over later and call Old Yan and your two brothers. It will be more fun with more people. Old Yan is stingy and doesn't have any good food or wine. Come drink with me."

He Daqing went into the kitchen and replaced Ma Dongmei, knowing that Zhao Shanhe wanted to see Ma Dongmei for something.

"Shanhe, just tell me what's going on."

"Sister-in-law, please do me a favor. I'm going to the south in a few days and I want to take Aunt Chen with me. How about you take care of my nephews for a few days?"

"No problem. He Dong will be going to university in a few days. He Hua will be alone. It doesn't matter if she sees one or more people. Don't worry."

"Okay, sister-in-law, then you guys eat first, I'll come over later."

Zhao Shanhe returned to the front yard and told his third uncle first that he would go to Sha Zhu's house for a drink later, and then go home for dinner. Shanhu and Shanhai also came back at that time.

During the meal, Zhao Shanhe told his two brothers about taking Aunt Chen on a trip to the south, and also told them about entrusting his nephews to Ma Dongmei.

"Brother, don't bother. It's good for Mom to go shopping with you. Duoduo can take care of the child. Anyway, we will bring lunch at noon and we will be back in the afternoon."
