Rebirth He Yuzhu I am a family man

Chapter 96 Jia Dongxu's Farewell

The villagers of Qinjia Village are simple and hospitable, and the children are kind and friendly. Although Banggeng has six fingers and Xiaodang has poor mobility, the villagers of Qinjia Village see them as guests from the old city, and no family in the village disdains them and treats them all with kindness.

Banggeng was a lively and active boy. He soon played with the little boys in the village. The children in the village took out their treasured toys and played with him, rolling hoops, playing marbles, and shooting birds in the trees with slingshots...

Xiaodang was not liked by Qin Huairu in the courtyard. When she returned to Qinjia Village, Qin Huairu was busy chatting with the other young ladies and had no time to pay attention to her.

Qin's parents were old-fashioned people who favored boys over girls. Girls as old as Xiaodang in the village would help their families with chores, such as cutting grass for pigs, while Xiaodang could barely walk.

At that time, rural girls were trained to be good at carrying manure on their shoulders, planting vegetables and crops in the fields. In the eyes of Qin's parents, a girl like Xiaodang would have starved to death in the countryside; even if she grew up, she would not be able to do farm work, and it would be impossible for her to marry a normal and healthy man. Therefore, they felt that it was a sin to look at Xiaodang for a second.

Usually, the toys that girls in Qinjia Village play with most are ropes they make by hand using straw or wheat stalks, and sandbags they sew by hand.

The girls from several families near Lao Qin's house wanted to bring Xiao Dang to play with them out of hospitality, so they went to invite Xiao Dang. Xiao Dang felt like she was suffering when she walked, and she walked tremblingly. She thought these strangers wanted to play a trick on her. As a result, when they came to the door enthusiastically, they were met with Xiao Dang's cold eyes, and she didn't even want to talk to them.

The girls near the Qin family were so cold that no one would want to play with Xiaodang. The adults in the Qin family didn't like her, and the children in the village didn't dare to get close to her. Fortunately, there was a lot of land and flowers and plants in Qinjia Village. Xiaodang was alone, so she didn't feel lonely. She was focused on playing with mud and grass in front of the Qin family.

Qin Huairu's first love lost his temporary job in the city a year or two ago because of his bad intentions and returned to Qinjia Village to farm. Qin Huairu showed off everywhere, and the next day, her first love appeared near the old Qin's house. Not long after, he saw Xiaodang who went out to play in the mud. He saw Xiaodang's shifty and wretched eyes and felt that this little girl looked about the same as him.

He did not dare to act rashly, thinking that he would wait for Qin Huairu to come out and ask her properly, but he did not wait for Qin Huairu, but waited for Banggeng who was jumping out of the door to play. He was shocked when he took a closer look, this boy actually looked at least 40% like him.

Qin Huairu's first love got married earlier than her, and the family already had four children, and at this time, his wife was pregnant with another. His original intention of coming to Qin Huairu was to reminisce about the old times and to arrange some money.

When he recognized that Xiaodang might be his daughter, he had originally fantasized about making a fortune from Qin Huairu. But when he saw Banggeng, he immediately gave up the idea. Because in his mind: this boy will inherit the family business, which means that the family business in this city will belong to his son in the future.

Just as he was daydreaming, Qin Huairu, who had dressed up, went out, and he secretly followed her. While no one was paying attention, he approached her directly. Qin Huairu and her first love were just like a stray vicious dog and a pile of stinky shit. They came and went, and they were willing, so they naturally had a relationship.

Qin Huairu had been happy in Qinjia Village for nearly a week. Before the holiday, she returned to Sijiu City with Banggeng and Xiaodang. Not long after Qin Huairu returned to Siheyuan, she found out that she was pregnant.

In recent years, people living in the courtyards have basically been afraid to have children for the sake of their family’s hunger, fearing that the arrival of a new life would make the already hungry family members even worse.

Jia Dongxu knew very well: if the Jia family had another child, what would it mean for a family like theirs that only had one child, one big and one small. But Banggeng had six fingers, Xiaodang was a girl with a leg disease, and the child in Qin Huairu's belly gave Jia Dongxu hope, and he hoped that the Jia family could have a healthy boy.

Day after day, as Qin Huairu's belly gradually grew bigger, her appetite became better and better. Jia Dongxu was reluctant to deduct Jia Zhang's food rations, so he could only share some of his limited food with Qin Huairu. Sometimes, he would save some oily dishes from the lunch at the steel mill and bring them home.

Qin Huairu's first love in Qinjia Village, because there are many children in the family and his wife is about to give birth, in the face of difficulties, he thought of Qin Huairu in Sijiu City. That day, he got up early and walked from Qinjia Village to the courtyard. After lunch, he happened to meet Qin Huairu who was a "laundry girl" in the middle courtyard.

When Qin Huairu saw that it was her best friend who came, her heart started beating fast. She was afraid of disturbing Jia Zhang, so she took her first love and walked out of the courtyard.

Qin Huairu thought that no one would notice them at this time. She didn't know that Bai Dongmei of the Yi family had originally asked the two sons who had no time to wash the pots and bowls after lunch. As a result, the two boys ran out to play after dinner. She had originally laid down on the bed to take a nap, but she thought that if she didn't wash the pot quickly, it would be too difficult to wash it when she cooked dinner in the evening. So, she got up reluctantly.

Yi Zhonghai's house is two back rooms in the outer courtyard, and the doors and windows are facing the only way in and out of the courtyard - the hanging flower gate. Bai Dongmei happened to see Qin Huairu and a strange man walking out of the hanging flower gate in an ambiguous way. With her previous nose for men, she immediately felt that these two people must be extraordinary.

Bai Dongmei is not like Li Cuilan, who is honest and doesn't like to cause trouble. Bai Dongmei has lived in the courtyard for more than 10 years. There is no place around the courtyard that she is not familiar with, so she follows Qin Huairu and the man from a distance. Qin Huairu took her first love to a remote alley some distance away from the courtyard.

"Good brother, do you miss me? I'm pregnant with your child again..." Qin Huairu thought there was no one around, so she acted coquettishly towards her first love.

Her first love was hungry, so how could he be in the mood to spend time with her? She sighed with a sad face and said, "Sister Huairu, we can't even afford to eat at home. Can you give me some money and food?"

In this life, Qin Huairu no longer has He Yuzhu bringing her lunch boxes, nor does she have Yi Zhonghai secretly helping her. She only has Jia Dongxu's hard-earned money, and she doesn't dare to go to the black market more than once a month. She wanted to secretly help her lover like she did in her previous life, but the reality is that she is powerless.

"Good brother, your son Banggeng and I are both registered in Qinjia Village, as you know; my mother-in-law is also registered in the countryside. Besides, I am pregnant with your child, so my appetite has increased a lot. The two rations in my family, one for one adult and one for a child, are not enough for five people. If we have some money left, we will go to the black market from time to time to try our luck."

"Good brother, it's not that I don't want to help you, I just have no other choice. Well, I still have 6 yuan of pocket money, I'll give it all to you..." Qin Huairu said, and in front of her first love, she took out all the 6 yuan from her underwear.

Her first love was also a reasonable man. After all, Banggeng, Xiaodang, and the baby in Qin Huairu's belly were also his children. He did not make things difficult for Qin Huairu. Instead, he comforted her with kind words and showed tenderness. He picked up the 6 yuan and quietly left Sijiu City and returned to Qinjia Village.

Bai Dongmei heard the interaction between Qin Huairu and her first love clearly through a wall. At this moment, Bai Dongmei really wanted to run back to the courtyard and make a big fuss about it, so that Qin Huairu and the Jia family would be discredited.

As the saying goes, "Catch the thief and the stolen goods, catch the adulterer and the couple." Bai Dongmei did not catch the two people at the scene, there were no witnesses present, and she did not know the man. She was entangled in her heart, "If I really go to the courtyard to tell this, I guess Jia Zhang will rush into the Yi family and blackmail someone to death..."

Bai Dongmei discovered Qin Huairu's secret, but she couldn't tell anyone. She felt so uncomfortable. After she returned home, she couldn't sleep during her afternoon nap. She kept thinking, "What should I do? Should I just let Qin Huairu and the Jia family off for nothing..."

The setting sun dyed the west wall of the courtyard red. Yi Zhonghai, who was returning home from get off work, saw Bai Dongmei in a daze with a heavy heart. The kitchen was no longer filled with the usual smell of smoke. He was worried that Bai Dongmei was sick, so he asked with concern: "Xiaobai, are you feeling unwell? Do you want me to accompany you to the health center?"

Bai Dongmei found that Yi Zhonghai had gone home from get off work, so she immediately closed the door and told him her discovery in the afternoon in a mysterious way. After she finished, she felt relieved. Finally, she sighed with sympathy: "Zhonghai, you said how pitiful Dongxu is. He worked so hard to raise a child for others, and you said we can't tell him, hey..."

At this moment, Yi Zhonghai's face turned green with anger, and he thought painfully in his heart, "Qin Huairu, you are really amazing. You deceived me so badly. Dare to fool me, I will make your life better, hehe..."

Bai Dongmei thought Yi Zhonghai was angry because he felt bad for Jia Dongxu just like her. She comforted him quickly, "Zhonghai, your children and grandchildren will have their own blessings. Besides, Jia Dongxu is just your apprentice. Let's not meddle in other people's business. Just pretend we don't know. You've worked a day, go and rest for a while, I'll call you after dinner is ready."

When Yi Zhonghai found that Xiao Dang didn't look like him at all, he had doubts in his heart, but Bang Geng's curly hair was still like his, so he still had a glimmer of hope. Today, Bai Dongmei's words completely shattered his fantasy, and he climbed onto the bed in the inner room weakly.

Yi Zhonghai stared at the beams with lifeless eyes, shouting repeatedly in his heart, "Qin Huairu, I won't let you go; Qin Huairu, I won't let your little bastards go..."

Although Jia Dongxu learned the skills from other masters when he was promoted to level 2 and level 3, Yi Zhonghai would be the first to stop or remind Jia Dongxu when he encountered safety issues in his operations.

At that time, in Yi Zhonghai's mind, "Jia Dongxu can be a waste, so that he can easily control him; but Jia Dongxu must not get into trouble, because he thinks that the six-fingered stick may be his son, and his son cannot be without a nominal father to help him..."

Since Yi Zhonghai knew the truth, he no longer had the time to look at Jia Dongxu. In order to make his family live a good life, Jia Dongxu devoted himself to studying technology and improving his locksmith skills.

At this time, the tools and equipment often involved in bench work include: bench vise, bench vice, grinding machine and drilling machine, etc. When using a grinding machine, workers must strictly abide by the safe operating procedures, otherwise the grinding wheel will break and fly out and injure people.

In order to be promoted to the fourth-level worker as soon as possible, Jia Dongxu worked hard on his own without anyone to accompany him. In fact, before the third-level worker, as long as the worker works hard and attentively, and has enough qualifications, it is not difficult to pass the third-level worker assessment. For the fourth-level worker and above, the precision of the workpiece to be processed will become higher and higher, which requires the worker to be very proficient in the control of the processing equipment.

On this day, Jia Dongxu had lunch but did not take a rest. He was the only one in front of the grinding machine. He started to operate it as usual. Maybe he was not well-nourished, which caused his slow reaction; maybe he was too tired and could not concentrate...

Suddenly, there was a loud noise and a wailing sound in the workshop, and the world seemed to have returned to silence all of a sudden...
