"Zhuzi, well done. The leader of the DC branch just called and said that you and Jianshe discovered the spy and performed a great deed," He Yuzhu, who came to the office with Secretary Li, was praised by Li Huaide as if he was the one who performed the deed.

"This is all under the leadership's command. It's just luck," He Yuzhu flattered Li Huaide without changing his expression.

"I have made any contribution, so you don't need to flatter me," Li Huaide waved his hand to stop He Yuzhu's flattery.

"By the way, Yi Zhonghai said that he was in contact with the spies. If Director Yang hadn't taken action last time, he would have been executed. This time he is dead for sure," Li Huaide knew what He Yuzhu was most concerned about.

"I called you here to tell you that we will hold a commendation meeting for you in a few days to praise you. We are family members. Just tell me if you have any requests." Li Huaide began to be generous to others again, using the resources of the steel mill to win people's hearts.

But He Yuzhu not only did not dislike this behavior, but also enjoyed it. He still refused: "No, I will be satisfied as long as Yi Zhonghai can be punished."

"No, that won't do. Of course you should be highly commended for your behavior. Okay, I'll take care of the arrangements," Li Huaide waved his hand and set the tone.

"Director, it's almost time to get off work today. Can I leave for a while?" He Yuzhu wanted to share the news of Yi Zhonghai's arrest with his family. After all, Xiuzhi lived in fear every day, and now she can finally breathe a sigh of relief.

"Okay, since we're not going to entertain you, just go first," Li Huaide agreed very readily.

Walking out of the steel rolling mill, He Yuzhu felt very happy. He had been in this courtyard for such a long time, and Yi Zhonghai was finally captured. He wanted to celebrate today.

"Xiuzhi, Xiuzhi, I have good news to tell you," He Yuzhu started shouting as soon as he stepped into the central courtyard.

"You're back so early today. What's the matter? You're so excited, the head of the family." Li Xiuzhi opened the door after hearing He Yuzhu's call.

He Yuzhu quickly helped his wife into the house. "I just got the news that Yi Zhonghai was arrested again. This time he had contact with the spies and there is no hope for him. You can relax in this courtyard from now on," he said and turned around with a happy smile.

"That's a good thing. It makes us feel uncomfortable when there's always someone watching us in the dark," Li Xiuzhi was very happy after hearing this.

"Brother-in-law, since you are so happy, you must cook something delicious," Li Yue, who was standing next to them, didn't understand what they meant after hearing what they said, but she had a reason to want to eat something delicious.

"Little greedy cat, I'll make it in a moment," He Yuzhu said, pinching his sister-in-law's nose.

"Hate it! My nose was pinched flat by my brother-in-law, and you didn't help me," Li Yue leaned in her sister's arms and acted coquettishly.

Li Xiuzhi smiled silently as she watched He Yuzhu teasing the little girl. Suddenly, she covered her stomach and cried out, "Ouch."

"What's wrong? If you feel uncomfortable somewhere, sit down quickly." He Yuzhu became panicked when he saw his wife's look.

Li Yuewei was the one that she had touched just now because she was acting coquettishly. She hid aside and didn't dare to say anything.

Li Xiuzhi felt a warm feeling in her heart when she saw He Yuzhu's anxious look. "It's okay, the child kicked me." Then she looked at her sister and coaxed her.

"You scared me to death. This child is too disobedient. I guess it must be a son in your belly. I will beat him up after he is born to vent your anger," said He Yuzhu while touching his wife's belly.

"Haha," Li Yue next to him was amused by He Yuzhu's words.

"I feel like it must be a niece,"

"How do you know it's my niece?" He Yuzhu looked at his sister-in-law with some curiosity.

"A niece would be great. People in my yard say that a daughter is a close-fitting little cotton-padded jacket, so it must be a niece. If my brother-in-law wants a nephew, then let my sister have another one," Li Yue said innocently while looking at her sister's belly.

"Why give birth? You know so much at such a young age," Li Xiuzhi patted her sister in an annoyed manner.

"Boss, do you want a son or a daughter?" Now that things have come to this, Li Xiuzhi also wants to ask He Yuzhu what he thinks.

"I want a daughter. Just like Yueliang said, a daughter is the close-fitting little cotton-padded jacket of her parents. Giving birth to a son is not enough to make her angry with him."

"Look at the families in our yard that have sons. They are always in chaos and get beaten for no reason. Of course, Liu Haizhong's family is an exception. He is a little sick, and he will suffer when he gets old," He Yuzhu said to his wife.

"Your idea is really different from others, but I feel that you must be pregnant with a son. Your He family still needs to carry on the family line." After all, Li Xiuzhi is a person of this era, and the idea of ​​carrying on the family line is deeply rooted.

Although he does not favor boys over girls, he cannot change his mind about wanting his son to inherit the He family's bloodline.

"Okay, I'll listen to you. Let's not talk about this anymore. Let's make something delicious to celebrate the capture of Yi Zhonghai." After saying that, He Yuzhu went to the kitchen to busy himself. When the meal was almost ready, the sister-in-law also went to the kitchen to help her brother-in-law.

"What? Are you here to sneak around again?" He Yuzhu asked with a smile, looking down at Li Yue who was tiptoeing behind him.

"I'm here to help," Li Yue denied it flatly, but her saliva started to water when she smelled the aroma from the pot.

"Okay, you are here to help. Help your brother-in-law taste it and see if it is cooked?" He Yuzhu took a piece of meat from the pot and put it in her mouth.

He Yuzhu is already very familiar with coaxing children. It was the same when Yushui was little. Every time he made something delicious, she would follow him around and say that she was helping him taste the saltiness of the food, which made him full. But now that Yushui has grown up and got married, she has been replaced by his sister-in-law.

The meal was ready just in time for the rolling mill to get off work. He Yuzhu asked Yueliang to call Gao Jianshe over for dinner. He also told him the news that Yi Zhonghai and the spy had been arrested.

"Just wait for your meritorious service and receive an award. Director Li said there will be a reward."

"Master, I didn't think so much at that time. Who knew that Yi Zhonghai would have contact with the spies? If I had known, I would not have dared to go," Gao Jianshe told the truth to his master.

"Not to mention you, I have to consider it too. After all, I have a big family to support," He Yuzhu nodded and showed his understanding of Gao Jianshe's behavior.

"When you do things outside in the future, think about the consequences and don't rush forward rashly. You have families to take care of," Li Xiuzhi realized belatedly and felt scared.

He Yuzhu thought that he did not think so much at the time. He just followed Yi Zhonghai when he found his whereabouts. Now thinking about it, his behavior at the time was indeed reckless. Who knew that Yi Zhonghai would contact the spies? If something really happened to him, what would happen if Xiuzhi and the baby in her belly were left as orphans and widows?
