Siheyuan: Why are you all here to see me?
Chapter 72: Auntie Gives Birth
Director Yang took the telegram and saw that it was indeed from five days ago. Director Yang slammed the table and said,
"Li Gang is such a jerk. He is so short of money that he can't just send an urgent telegram. He is so stingy. Who did he learn this from? He is so stingy," Yang Weimin was so angry.
Li Huaide "Now is not the time to be angry. Let's send someone to the station quickly. We have 8,000 boxes this time. That's 30 boxes in a box. If we use it sparingly, we won't have to worry about meat this year."
Yang Weimin also quickly called the transportation department and the loading and unloading team, asking them to find someone to go to the station and load the canned goods as soon as they arrived. This time they have 8,000 boxes, so he wants to grab them first. You have almost finished loading, so it’s our turn. You guys are paid according to the share, but this is the actual number of boxes. Let’s see if they dare to compete with him.
If they dared to disown Li Gang's telegram, they would have to wait until Li Gang came back before they could have meat again. Director Yang went to the station with Li Huaide to wait for the canned food in a smug manner.
Li Gang and his party were also on their way back, and all three of them were in a good mood.
Xu Damao was actually at the train station. He had also received a telegram from Li Gang and came to the train station to pick up the goods. However, his cans were different from others. His cans were labeled "bear meat", "venison", and other names. They were not canned pork, and there were only 500 boxes of pork.
When Xu Damao saw that it was Director Yang and Deputy Director Li, he quickly went up to greet them. The two of them also gave face to Xu Damao, which was to give face to Li Gang, and chatted with Xu Damao enthusiastically. Xu Damao was also very self-aware and knew that they were doing it for Li Gang's sake. If it had been before, the two would never have paid any attention to him.
Li Gang came back and went directly to the station to look at the cans, then said hello. It was already afternoon so he might as well go home and have a rest. He made an appointment to have a drink at the food factory on the weekend. This time he was not going to the car factory but to have a dinner at the food factory.
Li Gang was a little tired in the courtyard. As soon as he got home, Qin Jingru quickly made tea and cooked. Li Gang sighed that home was the best place, with people serving him and making him feel comfortable.
Qin Jingru said, "My cousin is pregnant again. Brother Gang, how come my cousin is so fertile? She has already had three children. It's amazing." She looked very envious.
Li Gang touched Qin Jingru's little face lovingly and said, "Don't envy your cousin. When you are old enough, you will definitely be able to give birth."
Qin Jingru was not only not ashamed, but also nodded in agreement.
"By the way, Second Aunt's belly is really big. My cousin said that Second Aunt might be giving birth soon."
Li Gang: The second aunt is about to give birth. The time should be about right. Qin Huairu is also pregnant. This baby should be Huaihua. But shouldn't Huaihua be born in the summer of 61? This time doesn't make sense.
Huaihua's posthumous child was born after Jia Dongxu passed away. If we calculate it based on the current time, Huaihua was born around the Spring Festival of 61.
Could it be that my time travel saved Jia Dongxu's life? It was possible. Yi Zhonghai had already gone to jail. Without Yi Zhonghai, Jia Dongxu would have no one to take care of him. Maybe I really saved his life. Forget it. Whether Jia Dongxu was good or not, it had nothing to do with me.
The current Siheyuan has too many deviations from the original drama. Yi Zhonghai was sentenced, the first aunt divorced, the second aunt was pregnant, Sha Zhu got married and had a child, Liu Guangtian, Xu Damao, and even Yan Jie Chengdu were too different from the original drama, so it is not impossible that Jia Dongxu did not die.
The next day, Li Gang slept in. Qin Jingru did not disturb him and stayed by his side.
Li Gang woke up at around ten o'clock, washed his face and brushed his teeth, but did not eat. He was going to eat at the factory. As soon as he reached the gate of the courtyard, he saw Liu Haizhong hurriedly leading a woman into the backyard. At the gate of the second uncle's house, some women and old ladies in the yard were gathered together, and the second aunt's voice could be heard from inside.
This should be said that the second aunt is about to give birth. She is really about to give birth. Qin Huairu was also watching the fun. When she saw Li Gang and Qin Jingru, she came over to greet them and said that the second aunt was about to give birth. Li Gang did not go to the factory at this time, but sat at Xiaofang's door and watched the fun.
You said that people are giving birth to babies, why are you, a grown man, just watching the fun? Even though you are a teenager, you are still a man. You are sitting at the door watching people giving birth to babies, aren't you afraid of being laughed at?
Li Gang just wanted to know whether the second aunt's fourth child was a boy or a girl. In the original drama, there was no fourth child. This fourth child had something to do with him, so he had to see it.
One hour, two hours, three hours. The second aunt was shouting loudly at the beginning, but now several households are not shouting much, and the child has not come out.
Qin Huairu had experience. She said that the second aunt was old and the child might be a little... She couldn't say the rest.
Li Gang also understood Qin Huairu's meaning in seconds. Qin Huairu was right. The second aunt really couldn't give birth. The second aunt was old and her physical strength had long been exhausted. The baby was just about to come out, but the second aunt had no strength at all.
The midwife gave Liu Haizhong some advice, asking him to quickly get some wild ginseng or something for Second Aunt to hold in her mouth, preferably one that was several decades or even a hundred years old, otherwise Second Aunt might die on the way to the hospital.
This frightened Liu Haizhong. He could accept the loss of his child, after all, he still had three sons. But if his second aunt died, what would happen to his family?
But where can I find this wild ginseng? Some old pharmacies do have it, but the price is not cheap. I don’t have that much money, and I have to find a wife for Guangqi. If I buy wild ginseng, how much money will I have left?
It's not that Liu Haizhong is stingy. Even though Liu Haizhong earns a lot, there are five people in his family. He is physically strong, and they are all young men. As the saying goes, the young men eat their fathers to death. This is not just talk.
This year is a little better. Liu Guangtian also has a job, but the family does not have much savings. He cannot let the eldest son be delayed because of the younger one. This is the old thinking at work. According to the old tradition, the eldest son is the one who takes care of his parents in their old age and sees them to the end of their lives. He also inherits the family property.
But now, Liu Haizhong gritted his teeth and decided to save Second Aunt's life. He stood up and planned to go to the pharmacy to see if there was any wild ginseng.
The midwife told Liu Haizhong that he had to hurry up, as Second Aunt might not be able to hold on, and there might be two deaths. It might be too late to go to the pharmacy and ask everyone. The midwife gave Liu Haizhong some advice, asking him to ask his neighbors if they had wild ginseng. As long as it was old, a few slices would be enough.
Liu Haizhong didn't care about anything else and quickly asked his neighbors who had wild ginseng. Auntie was waiting for help.
When Li Gang heard this, he realized that he had wild ginseng. He was not short of that stuff. Not to mention those that were a few decades old, Li Gang also had those that were three, five, six, or seven hundred years old. He had even asked someone to identify them, and the largest ones were seven hundred years old.
Li Gang wondered whether he should take advantage of the situation and seize Liu Haizhong's house, but he felt that it was a bit conscienceless to do so. Besides, he had to save Second Aunt for Liu Guangtian's sake. So he decided to save Second Aunt for Liu Guangtian's sake. After all, those were two lives.
Li Gang stopped Liu Haizhong and asked him to wait a moment. He had a hundred-year-old Baishan ginseng and he would go back to get it.
When Liu Haizhong heard that Li Gang had wild ginseng that was a hundred years old, he was very excited and said that Li Gang not only saved Second Aunt's life, but also saved their Liu family.
Li Gang didn't waste any words, turned around and went into the yard. In a short while, he handed a long box to Liu Haizhong, told him that it was a 160-year-old wild ginseng, and asked him to take it to save the second aunt.
Liu Haizhong was not thinking about where Li Gang got the wild ginseng, which was 160 years old. It was very valuable. Saving people was the most important thing now.
After nearly an hour, the sound of a baby crying was finally heard in the room. Second Auntie had given birth. Both mother and child should be safe. I was right. Second Auntie had given birth to a girl.
The neighbors were also happy for the second aunt, after all, these were two lives. They also admired Li Gang, who did not even ask the price and gave the wild ginseng to Liu Haizhong to save people. The Li family's fourth son was really kind and righteous.
They heard that it was 160-year-old wild ginseng, which was very valuable. The Liu family owed a huge favor this time.
Liu Haizhong came to the yard with a smile to express his gratitude to his neighbor, and then came to Li Gang, thanking him profusely. He also said that the wild ginseng did not take much, and a few slices would be enough. But he could not give it to him now, and he would need the wild ginseng to replenish the body of the second aunt later.
When asked how much the wild ginseng cost, Li Gang said that now was not the time to talk about money, and that we could talk about it after Second Auntie was stable. Liu Haizhong nodded in agreement.
Liu Haizhong told everyone that he now has a son and a daughter. His second aunt gave birth to a daughter for him.
Li Gang looked at Liu Haizhong's expression and it seemed that he was not unhappy because the baby was a girl. Instead, he was very happy.
Liu Haizhong is just a little bit paranoid about taking care of his eldest son in his old age. He is not biased against boys or girls. Moreover, Liu Haizhong likes girls very much, so he has this expression. Besides, this is a daughter that Liu Haizhong has had in his old age, so how can he not be happy?
In the evening, when everyone in the courtyard got off work, they heard that Liu Haizhong had given birth to a girl and almost killed two people, so they all came to visit the second aunt. One family gave a handful of millet, another family gave two eggs, and even Yan Fugui asked the third aunt to send him two eggs.
This is not common, and Yan Fugui was also generous.
Li Gang was not stingy and asked Liu Guangtian to take a few cans of food, a dozen eggs, and a piece of meat home.
Liu Guangtian was not polite. This was for Second Aunt's health. Second Aunt needed these things right now. He also had a younger sister.
Liu Guangtian was also happy. He heard Liu Haizhong say that it was all thanks to Li Gang, otherwise there would be two deaths. Liu Guangtian said that he would listen to Li Gang in the future.
When Jia Zhang came home from get off work, she learned that her second aunt had given birth to a girl. She started complaining wildly and pointed at Qin Huairu, saying that this baby must be a boy and it would definitely be a boy.
