Rebirth He Yuzhu I am a family man

Chapter 4 Returning to Hometown

"You little bastard, if you run again, I'll shoot." A fleeing soldier threatened a child of about 13 or 14 years old.

"Don't shoot, he's still a child!" another defeated soldier held down the man's gun and advised.

When the child heard the fleeing soldiers were about to shoot, he ran in a panic, not paying attention to the stones under his feet, and stumbled and fell to the ground. Looking at the two fleeing soldiers getting closer and closer, the boy was so scared that he fainted.

"A Liu, give me one of the gold earrings you pulled off the dead man's ear. I'll give it to this kid in exchange for the steamed bun in his hand." The kind-hearted deserter said to the evil-minded deserter.

"A'er, just take it away. We haven't had a full meal for several days." The evil-minded deserter objected.

"We are in a panic. If we are not children from poor families, who would be willing to risk their lives? Give it to me quickly, and I will return it to you later. I only have silver dollars, yellow croakers, gold rings... no small items," explained the kind-hearted defeated soldier.

The kind-hearted deserter took a small gold earring and put it in the boy's hand, and took away a bag of steamed buns that fell to the side. He patted the boy's face a few times, and when he woke up slowly, he kindly reminded him as he walked away: "In the palm of your right hand, there is the gold earring I gave you, and this steamed bun is what we bought. There are many deserters behind us, and the street is so chaotic, go home quickly!"

A dream lasts for a hundred years, and when I wake up, everything has changed. He Yuzhu stared blankly at the two fleeing soldiers, and kept shouting in his heart. He thought, "Is this the city before the reconciliation? Could it be that I was holding a bag of steamed buns, and finally got rid of the fleeing soldiers who were chasing me, and then I met an unscrupulous businessman who took fake money and cheated me of my steamed buns, and when I got home, He Daqing called me a fool and chased me around the yard and beat me?"

He Yuzhu looked at the small gold earrings in his hand and suddenly felt the reality. With nearly a hundred years of experience, he confirmed that they were made of pure gold. He put them in his pocket and quickly dodged left and right on the street, and soon returned to the courtyard house at No. 95 Nanluoguxiang.

"Zhuzi, you've made progress today! Did you sell Mantou? Your father has been waiting for you at home for a long time..." Yan Bugui asked loudly with ill intention when he saw He Yuzhu passing by the front yard.

"Yan Suanpan, your nickname is just a name without substance! Look at what this is?" He Yuzhu took out a gold earring from his pocket and held it in his hand to show off.

"Yan Suanpan, I only have a few steamed buns, and the defeated soldiers on the street are begging to exchange their gold earrings for the buns in my hand. I have to go home and ask my father to make another big pot, and then go out later. Who knows, I may be able to exchange them for a few yellow croakers." After He Yuzhu said this to Yan Bugui, he hurried to the central courtyard.

When Yan Bugui saw the glittering gold earrings, his eyes were wide open, and he didn't even notice what He Yuzhu called him. At this moment, he was thinking, "He also wants to make a lot of money, so he has to go home quickly to make more steamed buns so that he can find the defeated soldiers to exchange for gold..."

He Yuzhu stepped into the middle courtyard, and He Yushui, who was playing in the mud under the locust tree, spotted him. He Yushui happily waved his muddy hands and rushed towards him, asking as he ran, "Brother, what delicious food did you bring me today?"

"Sister Qin, can you please help my silly brother clean up the house when you have time..."

"Everyone in the He family is a cook, so I guess it's almost the same, but I just don't want to cook at home..."

"I have calculated everything for him. My silly brother has all the luck he needs, except the luck of marrying a sister-in-law..."

"You can't quarrel with anyone but Sister Qin! She is the only person in our hospital who treats you well..."

"Silly brother, you are quite smart. In fact, I think Sister Qin is the right one for you."

"Even if the child brought by Lou Xiao'e is your own, I don't want to see Lou Xiao'e..."

"If you let Sister Qin down, don't blame me for not recognizing you as my brother..."

When He Yuzhu saw Xiao Yushui, who looked like a beggar, his memory showed the daily catchphrase of He Yushui when he grew up. He looked at Xiao Yushui, who was covered in mud, and subconsciously dodged. He walked towards home without looking away. Behind He Yuzhu, he heard Xiao Yushui's heart-wrenching cry.

"He Daqing, stop busying yourself and go check on your precious daughter! She's been running around all day and just bumped into something and is crying now." When He Yuzhu got home, he said to He Daqing indifferently.

He Daqing was stunned. Was this his honest son who valued girls as his life? He didn't have time to care about He Yuzhu calling him by his name. He put down the work in his hands and ran towards the crying outside the house.

He Yuzhu took a look at the slovenly, messy, yet extremely familiar home. At this moment, he felt no joy, only disgust. He turned around and walked towards the backyard.

"Old lady, why are you enjoying the cold wind? What delicious food did you eat today?" He Yuzhu came to the backyard and saw the deaf old lady sitting in front of the back room to get some fresh air, and said jokingly.

"My little Zhuzi, why do you want to come and see me, an old lady, today?" The deaf old lady looked at He Yuzhu lovingly and asked.

He Yuzhu looked at the lovely old lady in front of him, and a sense of closeness and familiarity arose in his heart, and his eyes could not help but moisten. Yes! In the whole courtyard, in fact, the old lady in front of him could see clearly, but she was old and could not walk, and the people she could contact were limited. What could she do? No matter how much she couldn't let go of He Yuzhu, she could only find a tall one for He Yuzhu among the short ones. She could do nothing except go to the He family's house and stare at the photo of He Yuzhu's mother on the wall.

"Old lady, I miss you so much... Are there any ingredients in the house? I'll cook a few dishes for you!" He Yuzhu said excitedly.

"My little Zhuzi! I know you are good to me, but I have never heard that you can cook! Nowadays, you can't waste food. Be good and don't make trouble..." The deaf old lady looked at He Yuzhu lovingly and persuaded him.

"Old lady, you look down on me, so I'm leaving." He Yuzhu pretended to be angry and turned around as if to leave.

"My little Zhuzi is angry! Madam doesn't mean that. Come, talk to Madam!" The deaf old lady looked at He Yuzhu lovingly and coaxed him.

"Old lady, let's make a bet. If my cooking is delicious, you can go and find a granddaughter to marry me. If I lose, from now on, I will live in your house and be your eldest grandson, taking care of you until the end of your life." He Yuzhu said confidently to the deaf old lady.

"Oh, hey, my little Zhuzi has grown up and wants to get married. Ha, ha, ha... Xiao Zhuzi, in my heart, you are my own grandson. But I dare to challenge you in this bet. Ha, ha, ha..." The deaf old lady agreed happily.

"Old lady, I'll go home to get some materials and come right back." He Yuzhu said and walked quickly towards the central courtyard.

He Yuzhu returned to the He family. He Yushui had a big bump on her forehead and sat in He Daqing's arms, acting like a spoiled child. He Yuzhu ignored them and went into the house to get some seasoning, a few potatoes, and a small cabbage and left.

"Zhuzi, where is the money from selling steamed buns? Yushui, don't you care about it now? Why are you running around with things at home instead of staying at home?" He Daqing stared at He Yuzhui and scolded impatiently.

"He Daqing, I exchanged Mantou for gold earrings, and I have to keep the gold for myself. You have to take care of your precious daughter yourself, and if you can't raise her, don't give birth to another child!" He Yuzhu said without any scruples as he walked out.

He Daqing, with a paralyzed face, was so angry after hearing He Yuzhu's disrespectful words that he began to tremble all over. He yelled, "Asshole, where do you get the courage to say such words? Stop right there, I'm going to beat you to death..." He Daqing had a beautiful dream, but unfortunately, after he yelled, He Yushui in his arms started crying again and refused to let go of him.

He Daqing had no way to catch up and could only watch He Yuzhu leave. What was even more infuriating was He Yuzhu's words, which were still coming to him slowly, "From now on, don't worry about what I do. If you can take care of yourself and your precious daughter, the He family will have saved the galaxy..."
