Siheyuan works as a nanny for Shazhu
Chapter 22 Return to 49 City
After they sat down at the restaurant and ordered some food, Jiang Feng asked, "Uncle, do you think Aunt Bai can tell?"
"It's a bit urgent today. I think she'll feel something is wrong if I take it easy. It's okay. It's a done deal. She still depends on me to make money. At most, she'll just nag me for a few more words."
"Uncle, you should be careful. Now that you have made it public to send money to Yushui, it will come out of your salary. You should keep some money for yourself and leave yourself a way out."
"Don't worry, I only gave her my salary. I'm not familiar with this place yet. After a while, someone will ask me to be a chef. I have the final say on how much extra money I get."
Jiang Feng gave a thumbs up: "Uncle, the old ones are the wisest."
"Hahahaha" He Daqing laughed.
He Yushui also started laughing.
After the meal, they had to take a bus in the afternoon, so they didn't drink. He Yuzhu paid the bill, and He Daqing reminded him, "Zhuzi, be careful on the road, watch out for rain, and keep the money."
"Yeah. I understand. If you don't have a good time in Baocheng, come back."
"Yushui, say goodbye to daddy. Daddy will come back to see you soon."
"Goodbye, Dad." He Yushui said, her eyes red again.
He Daqing looked at the few people, turned away cruelly, waved his hand and left.
Jiang Feng and He Yuzhu held He Yushui and watched He Daqing slowly walk away. Jiang Feng said, "Brother Zhuzi, let's go too. Yushui, let's go buy some fire cakes. You want to eat some?"
As soon as he heard about food, He Yushui's attention turned to that. The brothers and sisters picked up their luggage and clothes, and walked towards the train station while talking.
At about 11 o'clock in the evening, the three finally returned to the courtyard. They knocked on the door and heard the voice of the third uncle from inside: "Who is it?" "Third uncle, it's me."
The third uncle recognized Sha Zhu's voice, stood up and opened the door: "Sha Zhu, why are you back so late?"
"I can't help it. There is only one bus at this time. It will be 10 o'clock when we get to the station. Uncle, I am tired. I will go back and rest first. Thank you."
After saying that, Sha Zhu carried the things and Jiang Feng carried He Yushui on his back, and they hurried to the central courtyard. The third uncle shook his head, closed the door and went back to the room to continue sleeping.
The two came to the door, unlocked it, and put everything they were holding on the table. The room was cold. Jiang Feng put the rain on the bed, covered it with a quilt, and said to He Yuzhu: "Brother Zhuzi, this won't work. It's too cold. We need to light the stove."
The two men struggled to get up, took firewood and coal balls, poked the stove, poured some kerosene in, lit a match and threw it into the stove. Slowly, the kerosene ignited. Jiang Feng walked to the window and opened it to let some air into the room because there would be a strong smell of burning coal.
The two waited until the fire in the stove was burning brightly, then threw a few more coal balls into the stove to press it down, sealed the air vents, closed the windows and bolted the doors, then quickly climbed into bed and went to sleep.
The next day, He Yuzhu and Jiang Feng were awakened by a knock on the door. It was the first aunt who heard the third aunt in the front yard say that everyone had returned last night, so she came to check.
Jiang Feng came out wearing a cotton-padded jacket and opened the door: "Auntie, is there anything wrong?"
"Nothing, I heard you and Zhuzi are back. It's past nine o'clock now, so I came to check on you."
"Oh, Brother Zhuzi hasn't woken up yet. I'll tell him when he wakes up that he came back too late last night and is extremely tired."
"Okay, okay, it's okay. Go back to sleep. I'm going back."
Jiang Feng responded, closed the door, and went into the inner room to take a look. He saw He Yushui already sitting on the bed.
"Yushui, you're awake now, do you want to get up?"
"Brother, I need to go to the bathroom. I'm hungry."
Jiang Feng walked forward, picked up the clothes and put them on He Yushui. After she put on the clothes, he told her to go out slowly. Jiang Feng took the stove to the kitchen, opened the damper, poked the fire, found an enamel basin, poured some hot water, picked up the toiletries and walked to the sink in the yard.
When Jiang Feng finished washing up, He Yushui also came back. Jiang Feng said, "Yushui, there is hot water here. Come and wash your face and brush your teeth."
He Yushui agreed and ran into the house to get a cup and toothbrush.
After He Yushui finished washing her face, the two returned to the house.
"Rainwater, what do you want to eat?"
"Fire."
"I'm not tired of it yet. Okay, let's eat some fire cakes."
Jiang Feng went into the kitchen, put the pot on the stove, filled it with water and covered it with a lid. He then dug out three steamed buns from the pile of things on the table. He had bought ten of them to eat on the road before getting on the bus in Baocheng yesterday, so there were three left. Jiang Feng put the steamed buns on a plate and kept them warm in the pot.
He turned back and tidied up the clothes on the table. At this time, the door to the inner room opened and He Yuzhu came out: "Xiao Feng, Yu Shui, are you all up?"
"Yes, an old lady came to see me this morning. I woke up when she knocked on the door. Go wash up and have some sesame bread for breakfast."
He Yuzhu responded, opened the door and went out. When He Yuzhu came in after washing his face, He Yushui and Jiang Feng were already sitting at the table eating.
"Eating fire-baked bread again. You haven't had enough." He Yuzhu said with disdain.
"There's no more food left. There are only three left, one for each of you. Come and eat quickly. We have things to do later."
He Yuzhu poured some water to drink, then poured a cup for He Yushui and Jiang Feng, then picked up the steamed buns on the table and started eating.
At the Jia family next door, Jia Zhang's nose started to twitch when the others were eating fire-baked bread. She sat up from the bed and started to mutter, "Whose family is having a hard time? Eating meat so early in the morning, and why don't they send some to me?"
When she got to the window, she saw that the door next door was open. Jia Zhang was startled. Sha Zhu was back. She wanted to go out to ask Sha Zhu for something to eat. But Jia Zhang thought about it again. She asked Dongxu to talk to his master about borrowing the house, but he didn't say whether it was possible or not. She asked Dongxu to try harder.
Jia Zhang thought about it, turned around and walked out of the yard to inform Jia Dongxu.
Jiang Feng was in the house. When he saw Jia Zhangshi walk out, he wiped He Yushui's hands and mouth and said, "Yushui, play in the yard for a while. I have something to discuss with your brother."
He Yushui hummed, climbed down from the chair, and went out to play in the snow. Jiang Feng went to the kitchen to get the stove. The weather was too cold, so they had to gather around the stove.
"Brother Zhuzi, what do you think? I told my uncle yesterday that Yi Zhonghai will definitely plot against you. Let's tell Yushui that we didn't find him this time. In a month at most, you will see clearly what kind of person Yi Zhonghai is."
He Yuzhu lowered his head. In fact, when He Daqing was still alive, Yi Zhonghai was just an ordinary neighbor. He didn't dare to plot against someone else's son blatantly, so he always looked righteous and fair in his conduct. He didn't really believe that he was such a person.
But what He Daqing said yesterday didn't match what Yi Zhonghai said, so one of them must be lying. Although He Yuzhu is nicknamed Shazhu, he is not really stupid. If he has the chance to know the truth of the matter, he will definitely want to find out.
"Okay, let's do as you say. We'll talk to each other first, and Yu Shui will say he didn't see anyone. If you ask the others, they just say they don't know."
"Yeah." The two of them sat around the stove, talking while paying attention to the outside. They made up a story about their trip and told everyone who asked the same thing. They called He Yushui in and told her how to answer questions. If they asked too many questions, she should just say she was tired and fell asleep. She didn't know anything. It was a wasted trip anyway.
After discussing it, Jiang Feng said, "Brother Zhuzi, how many days of leave did you take?"
"Three days. He said he would go to work the day after tomorrow."
"I just saw Jia Zhang go out. I guess she went to the factory to inform people. So, you go to the first aunt and tell her that she is a good person and always cares about us. Then tell her that you will go to the master to cancel your leave and go back to work tomorrow."
"If an auntie asks you about going to Baocheng, just tell her what I discussed with you."
He Yuzhu thought about it and said, "Okay."
After the discussion, He Yuzhu went to Yi Zhonghai's house, called out "Auntie" and pushed the door open. After talking in the house for about ten minutes, He Yuzhu came out, winked at Jiang Feng, nodded, and walked out of the yard, saying, "I'll go buy some vegetables and bring them back later. You stay at home with Yushui."
Jiang Feng responded and looked at Yu Shui making a little snowman with his hands red from the cold. He pulled Yu Shui into the house to warm up by the fire, then rummaged around and found some peanuts and melon seeds. The two of them sat by the stove, eating while warming themselves by the fire.
Jiang Feng's thoughts raced, thinking about how to live in the future. There were too many beasts in the courtyard, and they couldn't stand seeing people doing well. There were a lot of things stored in the system, and he had to find a way out. Although the system would take care of the source of the things, at least I had to have something to do, otherwise the money and things would fall from the sky. He could only take it one step at a time.
Jiang Feng looked inside the system and saw that the task bar had been completed. He clicked it and saw, "The two members of the He family no longer have much resentment towards He Daqing's departure. He Yuzhu heard that his father gave him money and arranged a job for him, and the misunderstanding between father and son has been resolved. Mission completed, system reward: primary space (this space is 10*10m and can be merged with the storage grid). Do you want to claim the reward and merge the storage grid?"
"Receive the fusion."
Jiang Feng thought, I also have my own space, even though the area is not large, since it is an entry-level space, it can definitely be upgraded later.
"Space is being claimed. Claimed. Space is being merged. The fusion will take 24 hours. During the fusion period, the storage compartment and space cannot be used."
Jiang Feng exited the system mentally and saw Yu Shui sitting on the side, dangling her feet. He said, "Come on, Yu Shui, I'll take you to build a big snowman."
"Yeah, big snowman, big snowman." He Yushui shouted happily.
After going out, Jiang Feng looked around and took out a shovel from the side of the house. The two of them started rolling snowballs in the yard. After a while, Jiang Feng rolled a big snowball, and He Yushui followed suit and rolled a small snowball. Jiang Feng pushed the big snowball to the steps in front of the door, flattened the top with a shovel, and helped He Yushui put the small snowball on top of the big snowball. The two snowballs stacked together were almost as tall as Jiang Feng.
Jiang Feng took a look, asked He Yushui to wait, turned around and went to the cellar, found a carrot and two small potatoes, washed them, made the potatoes for eyes and the carrots for a nose. He Yushui jumped around the snowman, looking very happy.
The two looked at each other, and Jiang Feng said, "We still need hands. Yu Shui, let's roll a few small snowballs and connect them together, and we can make the snowman's hands."
The two of them became busy again. At this time, snowflakes began to float in the sky, like white fluff floating in the air. When the snowman was made, Jiang Feng drew an arc with the corners of the mouth pointing upwards under the snowman's nose and arms like lotus roots. Jiang Feng said, "Look, Yushui, the snowman is smiling." He Yushui's silver bell-like laughter rang out in the central courtyard.
