Siheyuan: I am Yi Zhonghai's biological son

In the evening, Sha Zhu cooked a large table of dishes, and the Yi and He families ate together. The women and children ate at the Yi family, and the men ate at the He family.

There are only four men in the two families, not counting Wang Kaixuan. After the deaf old lady passed away, Sha Zhu renovated the houses in the middle and back courtyards, and now they live a happy life.

"Brother Zhuzi's cooking skills are getting more and more sophisticated." Yi Ping'an tasted the dish and praised Sha Zhu.

"Hahaha, Ping An, I like your truthful nature." Sha Zhu said happily.

"Hahaha"

Everyone laughed.

"Come on, let's have a drink. It's been a while since I had a drink with Brother Ping An. You're not home now, so I can't find anyone to drink with you."

Sha Zhu picked up the wine glass and said that he was particularly happy today. In his eyes, Yi Ping'an was giving him face by drinking with him. Since he met Minister Xu, Sha Zhu also understood a lot of things and became more aware of how powerful Yi Ping'an was.

Now that he has come back and treats me the same as before, I am giving him face, which is really an honor.

"Brother Zhuzi, have you passed on this skill to Hutou?" Yi Ping'an asked. He also heard it from Tietou. Now Hutou is learning cooking from Sha Zhuzi?

"Yes, among my sons, only Hutou has talent in this area. I will teach him the basic skills first. When he has practiced well enough, I will let his grandfather teach him." Sha Zhu said.

"My Uncle He is back?" Yi Ping'an was very surprised.

"Well, he will be back at the end of the year. He has already retired. What else is he doing here? He is not well-liked, so he might as well come back earlier. It is just right for him to live with Hutou in the backyard. We are close relatives. He doesn't like me, and I don't like to pay attention to him. It's just right for me to let my son serve him."

Sha Zhu spoke casually, but one could tell that he still cared about He Daqing a lot.

"Yeah, we're old now, so it's good for us to come back earlier. My dad will retire at the end of the year, and we brothers will have some company. We can play chess if we want to, and go fishing if we want to. It's great." Yi Ping'an also agreed.

"Yes, now that Brother He is back, I also have someone to talk to." Yi Zhonghai also said that when people get old, they miss their old friends especially. Now Yi Zhonghai gets along well with the elderly people in the courtyard.

A few people were eating when they heard someone outside shouting, "Shazhu, Shazhu, your Master Xu is here."

"Sha Mao, you grandson, who are you following? Get in here." Sha Zhu shouted outside without even lifting his butt.

"Hey, Uncle Yi, Brother Ping'an, Brother Kaixuan, I'm here to join in the fun." Xu Damao took two bottles of Xifeng and a pound of braised beef in soy sauce, walked into the house, and greeted everyone.

"Brother Damao, long time no see." Yi Ping'an also greeted Xu Damao.

"Ping'an, long time no see. Come, add another dish." Then he went to the kitchen, took out a plate, and poured the braised beef into it.

"Is Brother Damao still at the steel rolling mill?" Yi Ping'an really didn't know where Xu Damao had gone. He hadn't come back since the wind stopped.

"I'm no longer working in the steel mill. I went to the cinema. I don't have to run outside all day. I'm old and can't run anymore." Xu Damao said self-deprecatingly.

"What nonsense! How old are you and you say you are old? What should we do?" Yi Zhonghai scolded Xu Damao with a smile.

"Oh, Uncle Yi, I really feel that I'm old now. I have no energy to do anything." Xu Damao has no ambition now. The high-spirited man he had in the past is now completely gone.

"I heard that Banggeng wants to learn how to project movies from you?" Shazhu asked while drinking.

"Yeah, at least you call me uncle. Brother Dongxu said so. I don't have much to do anyway, so I'll teach you." Xu Damao said.

This was the first time Yi Ping'an heard news about the Jia family after several years.

"How is Brother Dongxu now?" Yi Ping'an asked. He hadn't heard any news from there in the past few years. The main reason was that he had forgotten about the Jia family, and Yi Zhonghai would not take the initiative to tell him about these things.

"Brother Dongxu is doing well now. He has passed the level 6 welder test and is working hard to pass the level 7 test. He has five children, so he has to work hard. Banggeng is about to get married." Xu Damao said.

Since Jia Dongxu moved out of the Siheyuan, he would only come back to see Yi Zhonghai during the Chinese New Year and other holidays. Huaihua was no longer called Huaihua, but Jia Ran. Later, she gave birth to two sons in succession. Yi Ping'an sighed: The plot of this Siheyuan has changed beyond recognition.

It is worth mentioning that since the economic development, all walks of life have developed rapidly, many factories have been built, and unemployed young people have entered the factories, or like Ma Qiang and others, have joined the army.

In the previous life, the movement of sending educated youth to the countryside has always been voluntary in this life and there is no forced going to the countryside.

Therefore, no one from the Siheyuan went to the countryside, let alone Banggeng.

"Didn't Banggeng get into university?" Yi Ping'an asked.

"No, he just can't concentrate on his studies. His father beat and scolded him, but it didn't work. Nothing he said can help him if his brain isn't working well." Xu Damao replied to Yi Ping'an.

"Brother Dongxu was not a good student when he was in school, he was just slightly better than me." Shazhu also interjected.

Yi Ping'an suddenly remembered that Jia Dongxu was learning locksmithing back then. He really didn't have a good brain.

Several people drank a lot, and Yi Zhonghai was old, so he went back after eating. Wang Kaixuan also went back to the cross-courtyard. At this time, only Yi Pingan and the other three were left, reminiscing about the past.

Xu Damao's alcohol tolerance was the lowest among the three. Now he was a little drunk. He said with a thick tongue, "Ping An, I'll toast you a glass. Come on, let's drink it."

"No, Brother Damao, you can drink it, but why are you toasting to me? This needs to be made clear, otherwise I won't drink." The atmosphere became lively and Yi Ping'an also relaxed.

"Drink first, and talk after you're done." Xu Damao drank it directly, and Yi Ping'an also drank it when he saw it.

"Ping An, you are the most promising one in our hospital. When you first came, I wanted to catch up with you. Later, I realized how ridiculous I was.

Among all of us, I am the most unsuccessful in life. I am a complete extinct family, a complete extinct family!" Xu Damao started to cry as he spoke.

Yi Ping'an and Sha Zhu looked at each other. Sha Zhu also felt uncomfortable. Now Xu Damao was the only one in the compound who had no children. He liked all the children in the compound and often bought snacks for them. He just wanted a child of his own. This was very similar to Yi Zhonghai back then, except that he did not have Yi Zhonghai's brains.

"What are you crying for? Are you still a man? Do you pee while standing? If you do, shut up. They are just sons, right? I have three. Whichever one do you like, I will take care of you as my godfather and provide for your retirement. That's what I say."

Sha Zhu's eyes also turned red. He couldn't bear to see Xu Damao being so cowardly. Where was the courage he had to challenge him back then? Did he let the dog eat him?

"Hahaha, silly Zhu, Brother Zhu, can you give me a son? Wuuuuu... Can I still have a son? Am I worthy of it?" Xu Damao was crying and laughing.

Alas, Yi Ping'an also sighed. Sha Zhu was scolding Xu Damao angrily. Yi Ping'an took the opportunity to comfort Xu Damao and took his pulse.

Well, the tadpoles are not active and would rather stay still than move. No wonder they can’t find their mother.

Yi Ping'an thought about it and realized that the plot had changed beyond all recognition now, so helping him would just be a matter of convenience. Forget it, just do a good deed for the day. Besides, Xu Damao had never offended him, so he might as well help him.
