Siheyuan: A Family of Loyal and Brave People

Thanks to Qin Huairu's personal presence, no one at No. 95 Luoguxiang was deceived when exchanging money, and a storm was successfully avoided.

Qin Huairu, who maintained community stability, was not happy because she was already lying on the operating table in the hospital.

It wasn’t that Qin Huairu had a sudden illness, but the day of her delivery had finally arrived.

Most women will go through this ordeal in their lifetime, but because they have no experience it’s the first time, so it becomes particularly painful.

After waiting for two or three hours outside the operating room and seeing no news at all, He Yuzhu became extremely anxious and wanted to break down the door and force his way in to find out what was going on.

It was only the last bit of rationality that held He Yuzhu back tightly, preventing him from ever stepping out of line.

There was no way. He Yuzhu didn't know any medical skills, and going in would not be of any help except causing trouble.

The only option now is to wait outside quietly. Don't make any noise and disturb the doctors inside.

In early spring, the days are short and the nights are long. After a while, the sun gradually sets outside the window and the sky quickly darkens.

Looking at the sun about to sink into the horizon outside the window, He Yuzhu suddenly felt sad. An inexplicable fear arose in his heart. Tears flowed out unconsciously and welled up in his eyes.

He squatted in the corner with his head in his hands, scratching his messy hair irritably, his face full of confusion and helplessness.

As a soldier who had been to the battlefield and dared to throw grenades at the enemy under the hail of bullets, He Yuzhu could not help but show such a weak attitude. This was a scene he had never imagined before.

He is not even afraid of death, what is he afraid of now?

The cycle of nature and the repetition of the sun and the moon are not affected by human will. The sun in the west ignored He Yuzhu's fear and sorrow and continued to sink slowly.

As the afterglow was about to fade, a burst of hurried footsteps came from the corner of the stairs.

He Yuzhu looked in the direction of the voice and, in the last rays of light before sunset, saw the familiar face of the person who came.

"Brother Hao, why are you here?"

He Yuzhu suddenly stood up, looked at the person who came and asked.

"District Chief Zhou called me to a meeting this afternoon. I just received the news and rushed over immediately."

Cheng Hao walked straight to He Yuzhu and stood with his back to the wall. Without saying anything else, he just stood there in silence.

There was no word of comfort, but He Yuzhu's depressed mood eased a lot in an instant.

In the past, when he went to the battlefield, no matter how critical the situation was, as long as Cheng Hao was there, he could always turn danger into safety.

Even though this matter has nothing to do with the war, He Yuzhu believes that Cheng Hao's good luck can help him overcome the difficulties.

When I thought of this, the light in the operating room suddenly turned from red to green, the door opened, and a doctor in a white coat strode out, took off his mask, and breathed a sigh of relief.

He Yuzhu was stunned at first, but after he reacted, he hurried forward and prepared to ask about his wife's condition.

Before he could speak, the doctor seemed to see through his thoughts and just said something lightly.

"Mother and child are safe."

Hearing this, He Yuzhu's body swayed, he staggered, and almost collapsed to the ground.

Fortunately, Cheng Hao reacted in time and held him up.

"Mother and child are safe?"

He Yuzhu turned around and looked at Cheng Hao with inquiring eyes.

Cheng Hao did not let him down, nodded and repeated: "Mother and child are safe."

Finally, He Yuzhu could no longer suppress his emotions and burst into tears without caring about his manners.

He cried and laughed at the same time, like a madman.

"That's great, I'm a father now, I have a son."

The doctor looked at the scene in front of him as if he was not surprised, and kindly reminded: "The child will be taken care of by the nurse for the time being, you can go in and see your lover first."

"Okay, thank you, doctor. Thank you, doctor."

He Yuzhu stood firm, walked forward, shook the doctor's hand, thanked him several times, and then rushed into the operating room.

……

After a few dangerous situations, He Yuzhu finally had a son, and he named the child He Feng on the spot.

Early the next morning, when the news reached the courtyard, the neighbors were all excited.

Although it is not uncommon for a family to have a new child, it is different for He Yuzhu to have a child.

He Yuzhu's family is well-off, so after having a son, shouldn't he give out some candy and red eggs to his neighbors?

When the baby is one month old, shouldn’t we have a big banquet to celebrate?

And these are real benefits to the neighbors.

Especially the children of Yan Bugui's family, their eyes were red with glare, and they wanted to run to the hospital immediately to kowtow to Qin Huairu in exchange for some eggs and candies to satisfy their hunger.

Ever since the last time the bacon theft was exposed, Yan Bugui had lost everything, making the already poor family even worse off.

The Yan family's plan to improve their food supply failed, and the children fell into hardship again.

It was just that they had just started eating meat a few days ago, and after tasting the meat, they felt very restless, so how could they help themselves?

I really wish I could find another chance to steal some meat and eat to my heart's content.

Now that they have legitimate ways to eat meat, they are naturally going crazy with joy.

"Dad, how many delicious dishes do you think Sha Zhu will prepare for He Feng's full-month banquet?

He is the canteen director, and he makes a lot of money on a daily basis. I think it would be a loss of status if he doesn’t prepare four or five large dishes.”

Yan Jiecheng couldn't wait to talk to his father about the full moon banquet.

Yan Bugui showed no joy on his face. He slapped his son on the head and complained, "Eat, eat, eat, you only know how to eat. Do you think the banquet is so delicious?

No gifts allowed when attending the full moon banquet?

How can I have any spare money when my family is ruined by you little bastards like this?"

Children only have to think about food, but adults have a lot more to consider.

It’s not that Yan Bugui doesn’t want to indulge in eating meat, he just doesn’t want to spend the money.

"What's that?"

Yan Jiecheng rubbed his head and said nonchalantly, "Why don't we just go and borrow some money from that old man?"

"Little bastard, is it so easy to borrow money from Yi Zhonghai?

If you want to calculate interest, it will be calculated according to the bank's interest rate!"

When it comes to borrowing money from Yi Zhonghai, Yan Bugui becomes extremely angry.

An interest rate of over 10% is really too harsh.

"Dad, don't panic.

He Yuzhu wants to hold a grand banquet, and he definitely can't handle it alone, so he needs to find someone to help.

When the time comes, you can recommend yourself and take on the purchasing work. Not only will you not have to spend the family's money, you'll also have the opportunity to earn some extra money."

Yan Jiecheng rolled his eyes and made a suggestion to his father.

Yan Bugui paused for a moment and said angrily: "It's easy to say, but He Yuzhu will give me such a lucrative job? Why? Because you stole other people's things and ruined my reputation?"

Yan Bugui became angrier as he spoke. He turned his head and looked around, searching for the feather duster.

If Yan Jie hadn't committed theft, he would have had the confidence to give it a try.

After all, Yan Bugui is the most educated person in the hospital, so it is natural for him to be in charge of such detailed matters as procurement.

But now that his reputation has been ruined, He Yuzhu is unwilling to employ him.

"Dad, don't be angry, don't be angry."

Yan Jiecheng stopped in front of Yan Bugui and raised his hand to persuade him, "You can't count it this way. Our family has a bad reputation, but the reputations of other families in the courtyard are not that good either. Yi Zhonghai is so focused on taking care of the children that he probably doesn't have much time to compete with you.

As for Liu Haizhong, don't you know who he is?"
