Rebirth of Siheyuan: Starting from escaping famine in 42

"Da Mao, let's eat!"

Mother Xu walked to the bedside carrying a lunch box and a casserole. Seeing her daughter-in-law awake, she smiled and said, "Xue Ru, you're awake! The chicken soup is still warm. Have some."

Xu Damao took the lunch box and put it on the table, then took the casserole, put it on the table and served Xueru a bowl of soup and chicken.

Qin Xueru smiled and said, "Thank you, mother."

Mother Xu had been looking at her eldest grandson. When she heard her daughter-in-law's words, she replied without even raising her head, "What are you thanking me for? If anyone wants to thank you, it should be our Xu family who should thank you."

Qin Xueru knew what her mother-in-law meant. She just smiled and didn't reply. She began to enjoy the food from Xu Damao. She drank two bowls of chicken soup in a row and ate two chicken legs and stopped eating.

When Xu Damao saw that Qin Xueru was full, he started to eat quickly and finished all the chicken soup. He took the lunch box to get some hot water in the hospital and waited for it to cool down before drinking it.

The doctor on duty came to the ward to check on Qin Xueru's postpartum condition. Seeing that Qin Xueru was fine, he said that she could be discharged from the hospital tomorrow morning. He also instructed Xu Damao and Xu's mother about some things to do during the confinement period, and then left.

Xu Damao waited for the doctor to leave, closed the door of the ward, and then asked his mother: "Mom, it's too late, you don't have to go home."

"There happen to be two empty beds in this ward, just rest here!"

No matter how much Xu's mother looked at her eldest grandson, she was so fond of him. When she heard her son's words, she replied without even raising her head: "Do I need you to tell me? I, your mother, didn't plan to go home to sleep anyway."

Xu Damao placed the two cotton mattresses he had brought on the empty beds. Qin Xueru's bed was in the middle. He chose the bed on the left, took off his shoes, and lay down on the bed, staring at the sleeping Qin Xueru.

After a while, I fell asleep unknowingly.

While sleeping, Xu Damao heard the crying of a child in a daze, but he did not wake up and slept until dawn.

He opened his eyes and saw that his mother and wife had already woken up. Xu Damao sat up from the bed, stretched and asked, "Mom, wife, why did you get up so early?"

Qin Xueru smiled and said, "It has just been a while since I woke up."

Xu Damao suddenly remembered that he heard a child crying in the middle of the night yesterday, and couldn't help asking, "Mom, wife, did the child cry yesterday?"

Before Qin Xueru could finish her words, Xu's mother held the child, looked at Xu Damao, and said unhappily, "What are you talking about! You sleep like a dead pig, and you don't even wake up when the child cries."

When Qin Xueru heard her mother-in-law describe Damao as sleeping like a dead pig, she couldn't help but laugh out loud.

"puff!"

After hearing what his mother said, Xu Damao said shamelessly: "Mom, it was mainly because I was too tired yesterday."

"Oh, by the way, mother and wife, you haven't had breakfast yet, right? I'm going out to buy something to eat."

After saying that, he put on his cotton shoes and prepared to go out to buy breakfast.

At this time, Xu Fugui and Xu Ling pushed the door and walked in, both holding several lunch boxes in their hands.

"Xue Ru, sister-in-law."

Qin Xueru greeted softly, "Well, Xiaoling, why are you here so early?"

Xu Fugui put down his lunch box and went to see his eldest grandson with a smile on his face.

Seeing this, Xu Ling had no choice but to tell her sister-in-law: "It's not Dad yet, he's anxious to see his eldest grandson."

"Sister-in-law, you must be hungry! Dad and I brought some millet porridge, you can have some."

As he said that, he opened the lunch box, served a bowl of food to Qin Xueru, and even wanted to feed her himself!

Qin Xueru stopped him, took the millet porridge, and said with a smile: "Xiaoling, thank you, I can do it myself."

Seeing that no one paid attention to him, Xu Damao went out to wash up. When he came back, he ate breakfast by himself and said something to his mother.

"Mom, let my dad take care of the child first, you come and eat!"

After hearing this, Xu Fugui said happily, "Yes, I'll take care of the eldest grandson first, you go and eat quickly."

After hearing this, Xu's mother reluctantly walked to the table where the lunch box was placed, picked up the bun and started eating, while looking at the child.

Xu Ling was chatting quietly with Qin Xueru, and suddenly remembered that the child had not been named yet, so she asked: "Dad, Mom, Brother, Sister-in-law, have you chosen a name for the baby? What's it called?"

Xu Fugui said first: "It's just a few days after the National Day. I think it would be nice to name my eldest grandson Xu Guoqing."

After hearing this, Xu's mother, Qin Xueru, and Xu Ling all nodded in agreement.

At this time, Xu Damao drank a mouthful of millet porridge, washed down the bun in his mouth, and then said, "I don't think it's very good?"

After hearing this, Xu Fugui turned around and glared at Xu Damao. He had just given his grandson a name and was quite satisfied with it. He did not expect that his son would come out and ruin his mood just after he was happy for a while. He gritted his teeth and asked word by word: "Xu. Damao, you. Say. No. What? "

Xu Damao didn't notice his father's gloomy face, and said to himself: "Yes! What's wrong?"

"You guys heard that there are too many people named Guoqing. When the children go to school, if you call Guoqing's name, there will be many people in the class! This is not good for the children."

After hearing this, Xu Fugui's desire to beat him was relieved by half. He asked in a deep voice with a dark face, "What do you think of naming my eldest grandson?"

Xu's mother, Qin Xueru, and Xu Ling were all looking at Xu Damao.

Xu Damao was a little surprised to see everyone looking at him, but he didn't think much about it and said with a smile: "How about calling me Xu Jianxun?"

"Construction means construction, and merit means honor."

"It is also of great significance, building the country and achieving merit."

"Dad, Mom, wife, what do you say?"

After hearing what Xu Damao said, everyone in the ward nodded in unison.

Xu Fugui smiled and nodded, saying, "Well, that's a good name. My eldest grandson will be named Xu Jianxun."

Xu's mother also stood around her eldest grandson, looking at him with a smile.

Xu Damao was just about to have a conversation with his wife when he was interrupted by his younger sister.

"Brother, why don't you ask for my opinion?"

Xu Damao glanced at his sister and joked to her, "Why should I ask for your opinion?"

After hearing this, Qin Xueru smiled and patted Xu Damao's arm, meaning that you should stop teasing her.

Xu Ling glared and said fiercely: "I am the child's aunt."

Xu Damao smiled and said: "I am still the father of the child! Haha"

After saying this, he even laughed out loud.

Xu Ling glared at Xu Damao, then said to Qin Xueru: "Sister-in-law, look, my brother is bullying me."

"Xiaoling, I'll help you beat him."

Qin Xueru smiled and stretched out her hand, punched Xu Damao a few times with her fist, and said with a smile: "How dare you bully Xiaoling!"

Xu Damao pretended to be in pain, blinked at Qin Xueru, waved his hands and said, "I dare not, I dare not."

When Xu Ling saw the eye contact between her brother and sister-in-law, she became furious. After saying something, she ran to see her eldest nephew.

"You just know how to bully me, humph!"
