Siheyuan: Five mouths waiting for food at the beginning

An Huan and He Hua came to the courtyard to wish a happy new year and apologize.

Aunt Chen covered her face and cried. She was naturally heartbroken for the grandson she raised. She asked An Huan to live a good life in the future and not to be willful anymore.

Shanhu and Shanhai, the two uncles, didn't say anything. They gave consideration to the Buddha. After all, he was the eldest brother's son, so they had to give face to the eldest brother and let the matter pass.

But he was not so easily fooled in front of Zhao Shanhe's second uncle. His second uncle was very harsh and scolded him harshly, scolding his grandson like a grandson. However, he didn't say anything after the scolding, after all, it was the eldest wife's business.

In the afternoon, the couple went to Uncle San's house again and were warmly received by Uncle San's family. After all, the current life of Uncle San's family was brought about by Zhao Shanhe.

In the evening, the family celebrated their eldest grandson's third birthday. Zhao Shanhe's family gathered together again after being separated for several years.

On the second day of the Chinese New Year, Zhao Anhuan brought some things with He Hua to Sha Zhu's house, but they were treated differently by Sha Zhu.

The person knocking was He Dong's door. Xia Chunlan opened the door and when she saw An Huan and He Hua, she warmly welcomed them in and called He Dong over.

Xia Chunlan immediately served them some melon seeds and tea. He Dong also came out immediately, holding his son. When he saw his sister and brother-in-law, He Dong said, "It's good that you're back, it's good that you're back."

Then he talked to An Huan about his life in the past two years, and asked Xia Chunlan to call Sha Zhu.

"Wenwu, these are your aunt and uncle, call them quickly," He Dong directed his one-year-old son.

An Huan and He Hua also gave red envelopes.

The harmonious scene was soon broken by the arrival of Sha Zhu, and He Dong's door was slammed hard.

The moment Xia Chunlan opened the door, Sha Zhu rushed in angrily and was about to hit He Hua.

"You bastard, you still have the nerve to come back." As he said that, he started to hit He Hua, but An Huan came over to protect his wife and took the blow from Sha Zhu with his face. With a "slap", He Hua shrank behind An Huan.

"Wow wow wow" Sha Zhu's action scared He Wenwu in He Dong's arms and made him cry.

Sha Zhu pointed at An Huan and said, "An Huan, get out of the way. I'm going to teach her a lesson today."

He Dong quickly stuffed the child into Xia Chunlan's arms and held Sha Zhu, "Dad, calm down. My sister and brother-in-law are finally back."

Ma Dongmei ran in breathlessly at this time and saw the child crying. He Dong was pulling Sha Zhu, He Hua was huddled in a corner of the sofa, and An Huan was standing in front of He Hua, but the slap mark on An Huan's face was extremely conspicuous.

In fact, it only took a moment for Sha Zhu to rush in and beat the man. Xia Chunlan looked at the furious Sha Zhu and didn't even have time to close the door. He Dong was holding the child and didn't react in time, so An Huan was beaten.

After receiving the call, Ma Dongmei chased Sha Zhu all the way over, and when she finally got in, she saw this scene.

Ma Dongmei rushed over and pushed Sha Zhu away, "Zhu Zi, you are crazy."

Then he looked at An Huan and said, "An Huan, are you okay? Let's go to the hospital."

An Huan's face was burning with pain. "It's okay, mother-in-law. As long as I can let my father-in-law vent his anger, that's enough."

Ma Dongmei took a closer look and saw that half of An Huan's face was swollen. She said to Xia Chunlan, "Daughter-in-law, give the child to He Dong and go boil an egg to reduce the swelling for An Huan."

Xia Chunlan gave the crying child to He Dong again and went to the kitchen to boil eggs.

Ma Dongmei pointed at Sha Zhu and cursed, "Look at what you did. You beat An Huan to a pulp. You scared your grandson to tears. Your son-in-law finally came over. What on earth are you going to do during the New Year?"

Sha Zhu stood aside, calming down a lot. He still said unconvincedly, "I just wanted to teach that bastard a lesson, but An Huan blocked me. I didn't mean to hit my son-in-law."

Ma Dongmei scolded, "Get out of here! You are so old, but you are still so impulsive! How can your son-in-law go out and see people after you beat him like this?"

The door rang again, He Dong opened the door, and Yi Zhonghai came over breathlessly, "Zhu Zi, calm down, nothing happened."

No one answered Yi Zhonghai, but Yi Zhonghai also saw the slap mark on An Huan's face.

Yi Zhonghai said to Sha Zhu, "Zhu Zi, you are too impulsive. How can you hit someone on New Year's Day?"

What he was thinking in his heart was that you could beat your own daughter, but how could you beat your son-in-law? You beat Zhao Shanhe's son, doesn't Zhao Shanhe have any face? It is obvious that two people were able to come here, so they must have been allowed to come by the Zhao family.

He was really worried that Sha Zhu had offended Zhao Shanhe because of this incident, especially since Sha Zhu's family all worked for the Zhao family. He Hua had already beaten the child and had not returned home with An Huan for the past two years. Zhao Shanhe and Sha Zhu had not had much contact in the past two years. Now he had beaten someone else's son again. He could make your family unemployed with just one word.

An Huan stood up and said, "It's okay, let father-in-law vent his anger. He Hua and I did something wrong. I came here today to apologize to father-in-law and mother-in-law."

After An Huan finished speaking, he pulled He Hua and the two of them bowed to Sha Zhu and Ma Dongmei respectively.

After that, Sha Zhu didn't say a word and just sat aside while Xia Chunlan brought him the boiled eggs.

He Hua rolled on An Huan's face, Yi Zhonghai, Ma Dongmei and He Dong also tried their best to greet An Huan, saying that Sha Zhu was also impulsive.

Then Ma Dongmei got angry when she saw Sha Zhu and sent him to cook. Sha Zhu was unwilling to cook for his daughter, so He Dong went to cook.

When it was time to eat, Xia Chunlan's younger brother and sister also came back. Although there were many people, the meal was still tasteless. The others tried their best to create a good atmosphere, but Sha Zhu was sulking the whole time.

After dinner, Ma Dongmei asked Sha Zhu and He Dong to drink with her son-in-law, and took He Hua to the bedroom.

After He Hua and Ma Dongmei left, Sha Zhu finally spoke and started talking to An Huan.

The four of them started drinking and the atmosphere became lively. An Huan was a carefree person to begin with, and he toasted Sha Zhu frequently. Sha Zhu had no objection to his son-in-law.

Sha Zhu was still worried about his daughter. She had married into a good family, but now what would happen to her in the Zhao family after what you did?

Sure enough, in the bedroom, Ma Dongmei talked about this problem with He Hua, "He Hua, have you ever thought about it? Your father-in-law has more than one son, and several daughters-in-law. If you beat the child, how will you face your father-in-law and mother-in-law in the future? What's more, they are a wealthy and powerful family."

"Are you going to keep running away like before? Times have changed, but they haven't changed. Marrying a man provides food and clothing. You are lucky to be able to marry into the Zhao family, and they don't need your salary. It would be best if you honestly gave birth to the child and then went back to work."

He Hua cried and said, "Mom, to be honest, I regret it. I wanted to keep the child, but you pushed me too hard, so I beat the child in a rage."

"There is no other way to escape. I didn't know how to face my parents-in-law after losing my child, so I could only hide from you. Now that I have my diploma and a job, I find that I regret it even more. I also regret causing such unpleasantness with my family and making you sad."

"I regret aborting the baby even more. A child is the best gift. Now An Huan and I have been trying to have a baby, but there is no sign of pregnancy. I really regret it, Mom."

He Hua hugged Ma Dongmei and cried loudly. She was no longer as strong as she was more than two years ago when she faced Sha Zhu for her dream.

Ma Dongmei patted He Hua on the back and said, "It's not too late to understand now. You and An Huan are still young and are doctors. It's only a matter of time before you have children. Mom got married at the age of 28 and gave birth to your brother when she was almost 30. You still have a lot of time.

Just don't be so willful in the future. If you have anything to discuss, please discuss it with us. Mom is an experienced person. By the way, have you visited your parents-in-law?"

"We came from there. On the 30th, the father-in-law came and beat An Huan up, then called us back."
