"Mom, please stop making trouble, okay? You have offended Uncle San's family today, and no one in the yard will help us in the future.

Besides, Third Uncle is one of the managers of this compound. If you piss him off and file a complaint with the neighborhood office, you won't be able to live here anymore and will have to go back to the countryside to farm.

If you really want to go back to the countryside to farm, then keep making trouble. You should know that you are still a rural hukou! Qin Huairu is my wife and you don’t have to go back, but although you are my mother, my father is gone. Your rural hukou is useless here.”

After hearing what Jia Dongxu said, Jia Zhang stopped making trouble and whispered:

"I just want to get some meat for my grandson. Look how thin he is. The child is still young, isn't it okay to nourish his body?

Damn the He family, they eat meat every day but don’t share any with us.”

Hearing his mother's words, Jia Dongxu felt helpless. After all, she was his mother, so he had to say:

"I will try to get some meat these days to improve the food at home."

Qin Huairu pulled Jia Dongxu and said:

"Dongxu, forget it. It's not bad now as long as we can fill our stomachs. In this day and age, just having food to eat is enough. There are not many people living in the He family's condition. After they move away, we don't have to worry about them anymore."

Jia Zhang grumbled quietly, not knowing who she was blaming. She understood the actual situation at home. If Jia Dongxu really bought meat, the whole family would starve.

She was very clear that if she had a good meal one day, she might not have anything to eat the next day.

While the Jia family was having dinner, Yan Bugui came back quietly. When the third aunt saw him coming back, she asked, "What happened to you? Jia Zhang has been waiting for you for a whole day."

Yan Bugui took the teacup and drank half of it, then said:

"It's all because of Jia Zhang's nonsense. It's totally unreasonable. She asked me to give her a carp. How can I have one? Even if I had one, I wouldn't give it to her."

Hearing this, the three aunts were stunned:

"Why? She asked you to give her a carp? Why?" Yan Bugui sighed:

“Alas, this is all for survival!”

Every family has its own difficulties. You know, the reason why Yan Bugui is so cautious is because there are too many people in his family, especially three boys who need to be taken care of.

Now the eldest child is relatively stable, the second and third children are still young, and the fourth child is a girl, but she doesn't need to worry too much. So now we must save money, otherwise it will be difficult to maintain our future.

Therefore, even though he earned 64 yuan a month, he only announced to the outside world that he only earned 27.5 yuan, and saved the rest of the money.

Later, the three sons not only got married, but also bought their own houses, bicycles and radios. These were accumulated bit by bit by Yan Bugui.

If Yan Bugui had not been so frugal and had not accumulated so much wealth, his three sons would probably not even be able to get married. Of course, everyone has their own way of life. Although Yan Bugui could understand the situation of the Jia family, he did not approve of Jia Zhang's behavior of causing trouble. The third aunt said:

"Why are you afraid of her? If she makes trouble again, go to the street office and file a complaint, and ask them to send her back to the countryside. Don't let such an unreasonable old lady disturb our family. We don't take the initiative to provoke others, but we are never afraid of anyone!"

Yan Bugui said, "Well, I don't want to make things too awkward, but if you continue to bully our family, I won't be polite!" The third aunt echoed, "You're right, it's not your fault in the first place. There should be a limit to being unreasonable."

He Yuzhu was completely unaware of the chaos in the courtyard. After returning home, he briefly told his family about the incident and then began to prepare dinner. The next day, he went to work as usual.

Not long after work, Gu Zhiqiu came over and said to He Yuzhu, "Zhuzi, the rewards from above have come down. This time it's about the composite converter steelmaking technology. The Ministry of Industry and Information Technology and the country have given you a total of 60,000 yuan, and awarded you the first-class merit medal. Others may not be able to get this award in their lifetime, but you got it just like wholesale. As for the in-kind rewards from the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, this time it is 30,000 yuan plus various bills with a total value of 10,000 yuan. They don't know that there is only one person in the Seventh Research Room, and all of these are rewards for the Seventh Research Room, so they all belong to you. In addition, in addition to giving you a 30,000 yuan bonus, the country also gave you a first-class merit. By the way, don't you consider joining the army? With so many merits, if you join the army, you will definitely be promoted much faster than others!"

He Yuzhu knew that if he joined the army, he would most likely face being transferred. You know, once you join the army, you must obey orders unconditionally. He expressed this concern and added:

"Director Gu, just keep this honor in your heart. I don't want to join the army. Once I join the army, I will most likely be transferred, and soldiers cannot go home at any time. I still hope to stay here and have more freedom. If I join the army, I can only study military technology, which is a big restriction for me. As for the field in which the technology I develop will be used, whether it is military, civilian or national strategic needs, it will be arranged by the state. I just focus on doing the latest scientific research."

After listening to He Yuzhu's words, Gu Zhiqiu nodded to show his understanding:

"Okay, I'm just asking for someone else. In that case, just focus on your work here!"

He Yuzhu replied: "Okay."

Gu Zhiqiu continued, "The bonuses, medals, bills, and certificates are all in this box." He Yuzhu nodded and responded:

"Thank you, Director Gu."

Gu Zhiqiu said with a hint of jealousy: "You earn a lot now, and you can spend it freely, and no one will say anything!"

He Yuzhu smiled and replied, "At this time, without various tickets, money is useless."

Of the 60,000 yuan, I can only spend 10,000 yuan, and I have to go to the consignment shop to buy some second-hand goods for the remaining 50,000 yuan!" said Gu Zhiqiu.

"If you can't spend all of it, just save it first. There will always be a time in the future when you need to spend money. You can decide how to spend it and buy whatever you want." He Yuzhu understood that the money must not be spent indiscriminately, otherwise it would cause trouble.

But as long as you have the tickets, you can spend it without worry. After watching Gu Zhiqiu leave, He Yuzhu opened the box. The money and various tickets inside took up most of the space, and they were all sorted.

There were all kinds of tickets, including food tickets, meat tickets, non-staple food tickets, fried dough stick tickets, industrial tickets, bicycle tickets, radio tickets, watch tickets, sewing machine tickets, oil tickets, coal tickets, etc., and none of them had dates marked on them.

In order to avoid unreasonableness caused by limiting the date, all tickets have no validity period. In addition, since He Yuzhu has obtained too many tickets, it may cause trouble if the time is limited.

The remaining 60,000 yuan in cash was all in Singapore dollars, and He Yuzhu put all the items into his storage space.

He Yuzhu didn't care much about the honor, but it was a way to improve his image. After that, He Yuzhu continued to study, and his research direction was automobile manufacturing technology and the development of electronic products.

In addition, there is communication technology. The car he intends to produce will meet future standards, so it is not immediately produced.

Instead, they plan to start manufacturing after fully mastering the relevant technologies. Because the cars produced at that time will be the best products. As for the current condition of the car, He Yuzhu is not satisfied.

He Yuzhu is busy studying every day. When he is free or after get off work, he will buy the supplies he received as a reward.

Whether it was meat coupons, grain coupons, oil coupons, milk powder coupons or soy product coupons, as long as it was food, He Yuzhu would buy it and store it in his own space.

Soon it was June. One morning, when He Yuzhu was getting ready for work, he suddenly heard a scream of pain.

It turned out to be Chen Xueru's voice. He Yuzhu quickly helped her up and asked with concern: "Xueru, are you okay?"

Chen Xueru frowned and said, "It hurts, my stomach hurts so badly!"

He Yuzhu immediately felt her pulse and said, "Not good, her water has broken, she's about to give birth!" He then shouted, "Sun Hao, go find a midwife! Xiao Chengyu, go get some water and boil some water. Nangong Yan, follow me!"

As he spoke, he picked up Chen Xueru and carried her back to the room, gently placing her on the bed. He quickly found a mattress, laid it out, and put an impermeable cloth under her. After the examination, he breathed a sigh of relief and said to Chen Xueru, "Don't worry, the fetal position is normal. Just listen to me, relax, and take a deep breath."

Then, he helped Chen Xueru take off her clothes and covered her up while she was relaxing to prevent her from feeling uncomfortable.

You know, He Yuzhu has very proficient medical skills, and is especially adept at small things like midwifery, and even obstetrics and gynecology surgeries are easy to perform.

With the encouragement and support of He Yuzhu, with the help of the power of qi and blood, and accompanied by Chen Xueru's cries of pain, the child was finally born safely.

He Yuzhu looked at Chen Xueru's tired face, and Nangong Yan brought a basin of boiling water. He Yuzhu began to take care of the baby. As the umbilical cord was cut, the baby's loud cry echoed throughout the room. Then, he began to help Chen Xueru with her care. At this time, Sun Hao hurried to the yard with the midwife, and heard the baby's cry as soon as he entered the yard.

The midwife let out a long sigh and slowed down her pace: "It seems that we are too late, the baby has already been born." Sun Hao said: "Since you are here, you should go in and check it out!"

The midwife nodded and walked into the room to see that He Yuzhu had already taken care of everything. "Zhuzi, do you know how to deliver babies?" she asked.

He Yuzhu replied: "This is my first time practicing. I have only read some related books before."

The midwife took a closer look and said, "You did a great job. You didn't find any problems. You were more careful than I was."

He Yuzhu said to the midwife, "Grandma Wang, thank you so much for coming all the way here." Grandma Wang shook her head and said, "You're welcome. You've helped our family a lot before. As long as the baby is healthy, that's all. By the way, is this baby a boy or a girl?"

He Yuzhu looked at the child and said, "It's a boy."

Grandma Wang responded with a smile on her face: "That's great!"

He Yuzhu added with a smile: "He will definitely be a naughty boy in the future."
