Siheyuan: Get the system at the beginning
Chapter 99: Do you have a partner?
The day before, a new baby was born in the yard. Even though it was a girl who was not welcomed at home, it was still a happy event.
The next day, Liu Haizhong's family in the backyard and He Yuzhu's family in the middle yard were busy.
Especially He Yuzhu's family started cooking soup early in the morning, and the whole yard was filled with the aroma of vegetables. The aroma made Qin Huairu, who had just given birth, very greedy. Unfortunately, it was a girl, and no one would care about her too much at this time. No matter how greedy she was, she had to endure it.
"Yushui, isn't your brother going on a blind date today? Why are you here to slack off?"
Zhang Xiaoyan was on shift work today, so she didn't go to work in the morning. She had just finished washing and hanging the clothes on the clothesline when she saw He Yushui running into the backyard.
"You don't need me to be there for the blind date, and it's still early! I know you're not working right now, so I came to hang out with you for a while."
"Hey, Liu Guangqi also came to Liu Haizhong's house with his girlfriend today. You guys are really a bunch of people."
"Maybe today is a good day! Otherwise why would he think of today? Have you seen his girlfriend? Is she pretty?"
"How would I know? Since I moved into this compound, I only saw Liu Guangqi once on Chinese New Year's Day. I didn't even get a clear look at what he looked like, let alone his girlfriend."
"That guy is so mysterious. I rarely see him. He is not at home all day long. I don't know what he is doing outside."
"Then I don't know, but your dad has invested a lot of money today. He got up so early to make soup? What delicious food is he going to make? Will there be ten dishes?"
"How can I possibly prepare ten dishes? Six dishes and one soup at most. I have to be able to prepare ten dishes! My dad said that food is getting harder and harder to buy, but vegetables are still okay, as the fields are growing vegetables right now."
"Then why don't you learn from me? Look at the vegetables on the shelf, they are so beautiful! As long as you open the curtains, they can still get some sunlight, so it won't affect anything at all."
Zhang Xiaoyan said with some pride when talking about food,
"You have this net on your window. If you dare to plant it in your yard, I guarantee you won't see it when you come back after going out."
He Yushui was somewhat envious of Zhang Xiaoyan for being self-sufficient and being able to eat fresh vegetables she grew herself, but everyone knows their own business. This courtyard is said to be united, but what does that mean?
It’s not like people in the yard haven’t grown vegetables before. Even Auntie, who stays at home all day, can’t keep the pot of onion seedlings she planted.
Because there was more than one person stealing the vegetables, they all testified against each other and just said they didn't know or saw it. As a result, no one grew vegetables anymore. From then on, Yan Fugui turned the onions, ginger and garlic in the pots into edible flowers such as peonies and herbaceous peonies.
"Then why don't you ask your dad to make a net? It's made of wire and can be found at the scrap yard. It's not expensive."
"That's right! I'll tell my dad when I get home. I don't care about them. I'll install one on my window anyway. I can also plant two pots of chives. I haven't eaten chive dumplings for a long time. I'll see when I can get some white bread and eat some chive dumplings."
"I think you should learn from me and order more vegetables. Make two more racks so that you can dry the vegetables. Then you won't be short of vegetables."
Zhang Xiaoyan reminded him very subtly. She knew that in real history, there had been three consecutive years of drought, but this was a parallel world. She didn't know whether the drought would still occur, whether it was delayed or not, it was hard to say.
However, I heard that it hasn't rained in many places since the beginning of spring, and it looks like there will be a drought this year. But I'm not sure what the details will be, so it's hard to say. What if I say it in a hurry and make people spend all their money to store food, and it turns out that this doesn't happen? Not only will I offend people, but I will also be nicknamed a lunatic. That's not worth it.
"Forget it! I'm in the mood for one or two basins, but I don't have the patience for more than that. Besides, I didn't expect that studying nursing, which looks easy, would be so difficult. All I can think about now are the names of various drugs. I'm afraid of forgetting this and remembering that. I can't think about too many things."
It would have been better if this had not been mentioned. As soon as the topic of studying came up, He Yushui's brows couldn't relax because there were really too many things to memorize.
"You've only just started. If you were to study medicine, there would be a lot more to learn and remember. As a nurse, as long as you learn the professional skills, you can slowly memorize the names of the medicines."
The two chatted occasionally, and He Yushui had gotten used to sitting and chatting every time they came. Sometimes there would be a plate of melon seeds, sometimes a plate of dried fruits, but there was no time for them to just sit there and chat.
"Hey, have you seen the old lady next door recently?"
I don't know what He Yushui suddenly thought of. He suddenly lowered his voice and said with a mysterious look on his face.
"It seems that I haven't seen him since the last New Year's Eve dinner. He has been staying in his room and hasn't come out. What happened? Did you see him?"
"I didn't see it. I just heard from the third aunt that she saw it yesterday. She said she was frightened at the time. I really didn't expect that the old lady had become just a bag of bones. She was so skinny. It was a sin!"
"I can't help it. I have no activities, I just lie in bed and wait for others to take care of me. Plus, I have malnutrition. It's understandable that I have become so skinny after all these operations."
Zhang Xiaoyan's eyes flashed and she said that she didn't pay any attention to the situation over there because the air smelled too bad.
"The aunt had always taken such good care of the old lady before, but I didn't expect that she would become like this after lying in bed. It seems that people really can't get sick. Lying in bed like this really feels like a living torture."
"How old are you? You're still worrying about the future. Besides, this situation is different. No matter what happens in the future, you will have children and grandchildren around you and someone to take care of you. The old lady next door is very lucky to have an aunt to help take care of her. If the aunt didn't have such a kind heart, the old lady would probably die in a few days and she wouldn't be lying here until now."
Seeing He Yushui's worried look, Zhang Xiaoyan said with a smile,
"That's true! Besides, when I'm old, it will be decades later. Why should I think so much now? I'm really asking for trouble. By the way, Sister Yanzi, tell me quietly, do you have a partner?"
He Yushui might have been influenced by her brother's blind date that was going to take place soon, so she suddenly asked about this topic. Looking at He Yushui with a mischievous look on her face, Zhang Xiaoyan directly gave three consecutive denials.
"No, how could it be possible? How old am I to have a boyfriend? Don't even think about it."
"Sister Yan Zi, I don't believe that you haven't met a suitable one. Do you want my dad to introduce one to you?"
