Rebirth of Siheyuan: Starting from escaping famine in 42

Ever since Li Qingfeng sat down at the table to play cards, he never came down. They played until dinner time in the evening, when they finally stopped playing, mainly because they were all hungry.

Li Qingfeng and the other eight people were separated by a fist, and they walked slowly towards the school cafeteria side by side, shoulder to shoulder.

At this time, the youngest Xu Dong came to Li Qingfeng and asked softly, "Third brother! Where did you learn to reach a high level?"

"hehe!"

Hearing this, Li Qingfeng chuckled. Of course, he couldn't say that he had played it on a goose game before, so he could only say to Xu Dong: "Well, I just figured it out when I was at home with nothing to do."

After hearing this, Xu Dong gave a thumbs up and replied, "Great."

"Haha, let's go! Hurry up and go to the cafeteria to get food, otherwise it will be gone soon."

Li Qingfeng quickly caught up with the large group in the dormitory.

"Wait for me, brothers."

Xu Dong yelped loudly, then trotted to catch up with Li Qingfeng and the others.

 …

Time flies, and before I knew it, a month had passed.

Although Li Qingfeng is now a junior and almost a senior and has learned most of the knowledge in school, he still studies hard with the seven people in the dormitory.

During this period, Li Qingfeng also went home on weekends when there were no classes at school.

Everything at home was the same as usual. The two houses in the East Courtyard assigned to his younger brother Li Qingshan had been built. Every day after get off work and dinner, he would carry Weidong to the East Courtyard to take a look and chat with his future neighbors in the courtyard.

With the help of Yan Bugui, the three aunts, and He Yuzhu in No. 95 Courtyard, the residents in the courtyard have a basic understanding of Li Qingshan's family situation.

Everyone knows that Li Qingshan works in the security department of the steel rolling mill. His brother Li Qingfeng is in college and was a former policeman. The residents of this courtyard still have an impression of him.

After all, Li Qingfeng had come to this yard with more than a dozen policemen when he was searching for human traffickers.

The residents in the courtyard are still very respectful of the police.

Especially Jia Zhang from the Intermediate Court. After all, she was once detained for half a month because of feudal superstition.

Now she trembled whenever she saw a policeman, but she couldn't help cursing loudly in her heart.

One evening.

Li Qingshan came home early from get off work. As soon as he entered the yard, he saw Qin Huairu lying beside the sink, retching, with her sister-in-law behind her, running her hand along her back.

Li Qingshan hurried forward and asked with a worried tone: "Huai Ru, what's wrong with you?"

Seeing that she was retching and unable to speak, Li Qingshan had to turn to his sister-in-law Wu Lirong and ask, "Sister-in-law, what happened to Huairu?"

Wu Lirong frowned and thought for a moment, then smiled and said, "Qingshan, Huairu should be pregnant?"

Hearing this, Li Qingshan asked in surprise: "Really? Sister-in-law, Huairu is pregnant?"

Wu Lirong nodded and replied, "Yes! When Huairu was cooking, she felt sick as soon as she smelled the fumes. This happened several times."

After hearing this, Li Qingfeng lowered his head and said to Qin Huairu: "Huairu, did you hear that? You are pregnant."

Qin Huairu nodded and said softly, "Yeah."

"Okay, Qingshan, help Huairu into the house and rest. I'll go cook."

After saying that, Wu Lirong quickly went into the kitchen without waiting for the two to reply.

Li Qingshan helped Qin Huairu into the house and sat her on the kang. He poured her a glass of water, put a spoonful of sugar in the water, and said softly, "Huairu, drink some water and lie down to rest for a while!"

Qin Huairu drank some sugar water and said with a smile: "No need, Qingshan, I'll just sit for a while."

Li Qingshan nodded and replied: "Okay!"

Seeing that Qin Huairu had finished drinking the water, Li Qingshan poured her another glass and then asked her, "Huairu, please take a day off tomorrow and I'll take you to the hospital. Once the doctor confirms it, we can rest assured."

Qin Huairu said, "No need! Qingshan, this is good enough."

Li Qingshan pretended to be angry and said, "Why not, Huairu, just listen to me."

Qin Huairu saw that Li Qingshan's attitude was rather tough, so she nodded and said, "Okay!"

Li Qingshan then remembered that he had not seen his son Weidong when he came back from get off work, so he asked Qin Huairu: "Huairu, where is our son Weidong? Why didn't I see him when I came back?"

Qin Huairu smiled and replied, "Weidong and Weiguo are listening to the radio in the main room!"

After a while, Wu Lirong came into the room with a light meal and said with a smile, "Huai Ru, come and eat!"

"sister in law."

Li Qingshan quickly reached out and took it.

Qin Huairu sat up and said to Wu Lirong embarrassedly: "Sister Lirong, please bring it in. I'll just go out to eat."

"Oh! It's all right."

Wu Lirong then said to Li Qingshan: "Qingshan, when Huairu finishes eating, you can go directly to the kitchen to eat."

Li Qingshan nodded and replied, "I understand, sister-in-law."

"Okay, you guys eat, I'll go get the kids to eat."

After saying that, Wu Lirong quietly left the house and called out in the yard, "Weiguo, take your brothers and sisters to wash their hands and have dinner."

After a while, when Qin Huairu finished her meal, Li Qingshan poured her a glass of water, then carried Qin Huairu's dishes out of the house, washed them in the sink, and went to the kitchen to eat.

When Li Weidong saw his father coming in to eat, he asked in a baby voice, "Dad, my aunt told me that my mother is pregnant. Do I have a brother or sister?"

Seeing Weidong like this, Wu Lirong just smiled at him.

After hearing this, Li Weiguo and his three siblings all looked towards Li Qingshan.

Seeing this, Li Qingfeng smiled and said, "Yes, your mother is pregnant. Weidong, you must not rush into your mother's belly again. This is not good for the baby in her belly. Do you understand?"

Li Weidong nodded blankly and replied softly: "I know, Dad, I will be careful."

"Okay, Weiguo, you guys hurry up and eat."

Li Qingshan served himself a bowl of rice and started eating it with big mouthfuls.

After dinner, Wu Lirong picked up her bowl and chopsticks and went to the yard to wash the dishes.

Li Qingshan asked Weiguo to take his younger brother and sister to the main room to listen to the radio. He stood in the yard, lit a cigarette, and said to Wu Lirong, "Sister-in-law, I will take a day off tomorrow to take Huairu to the hospital. Please help keep an eye on Weidong."

Hearing this, Wu Lirong stopped washing the dishes, looked up and said to Li Qingshan, "Sure! What's the trouble? I'll take Huairu to the hospital to see a doctor, so that we don't have to worry about her."

Li Qingshan smoked a cigarette, looked up at the dark sky, and said to himself: "Yes! Let's go to the hospital to check it out."

Then, Li Qingshan said hello to his sister-in-law Wu Lirong before No. 95 Courtyard closed, and went out to the east wing to see how the construction was going.

Li Qingshan walked into Yard 95 and didn't meet anyone. He went straight into the east wing and looked at the two houses that were almost completed. He was amazed at how fast these craftsmen built them.
