Siheyuan: Rebirth 52 years later, escaping from famine in Beijing

"Honey, I've made up my mind! I'll listen to you and quit my job at the art troupe... This way you can rest assured! From now on, you'll be the only one watching me dance! I'll also have more time to take care of the kids."

"Thank you, wife!"

Lu Weimin was very happy. He held his wife's soft little hand and kissed it.

Director Zhang said excitedly: "I told you, this salary is really worth it."

the next day,

Li Jing came to the art troupe office.

Before going in, Li Jing had made a very clear decision.

She is full of confidence in her future plans and does not rely solely on her family background. Just because she is a college graduate, it is not difficult for her to get a job in the street office. It is a sure thing.

Because of this escape route, Li Jing decided to submit her resignation letter to the company.

Although the subdistrict office had not yet been established and she did not have to start work immediately, she did not think resigning was such an urgent matter. She just felt that because she was pregnant and her belly was growing, she could no longer contribute as much as before, and it felt a little inappropriate to accept a salary. She did not want to do nothing during her pregnancy and still receive a salary, and then choose to resign after the baby was born.

Li Jing felt that it was not appropriate, so she decided to resign now to avoid collecting an empty salary and give her position to someone who needed it more.

However, the situation surprised Li Jing a little.

After a detailed discussion, the unit leader saw how determined she was and could only agree to her request.

But they also wanted her to stay and teach the younger generations how to dance and sing until she gave birth.

Li Jing thought about it and realized that since she was not required to perform on stage and had no pressure to perform, she only needed to help the newcomers improve their skills which was also considered as completing her job tasks, not just receiving idle salary.

So she agreed.

Three days passed in a flash, and on that night,

Lu Weimin, his wife and Xiaohan went to his mother-in-law's home in Ermingang Hutong for dinner.

As soon as I entered the house,

When Zhang Yunfei saw Lu Weimin, she said:

"Wei Min, your uncle Zhang called me this afternoon and said that a machine imported from the Polar Bear Country in their unit broke down and no one could repair it. Please take some time to help see if it can be repaired, otherwise it will have to be returned to the original manufacturer, which will be a huge expense!"

Since leaving the machine repair factory and returning to school for further studies, Lu Weimin has been working as a consultant in accordance with the previous agreement, and he still receives a salary from the machine repair factory. Not long ago, he even felt guilty for not being able to really help the factory.

Now it has finally found a use.

Lu Weimin responded: "Sister Fei, I understand! I'll contact Uncle Zhang right away."

Recently, Zhang Yunfei asked Lu Weimin to call her "Sister Fei" instead of "Mom" in front of her daughter Xiaohan, because she felt that she did not look much older than Weimin, and she was not used to it.

Lu Weimin naturally had no objection to this.

Li Jing thought that as long as her mother liked it, she had no objection, so it was decided.

No one noticed the hint of pride in Zhang Yunfei's eyes at that time.

Lu Weimin walked to the telephone next to the sofa and dialed the number of the factory director's home provided by his mother-in-law. A lady's voice came from the other end of the phone. It turned out to be Uncle Zhang's wife. They also came to congratulate him when he got married.

The lady shouted, “Old man, Xiao Lu is looking for you!”

Then there was the sound of footsteps.

After a while, the factory manager answered the phone: "I'm Uncle Zhang, Weimin."

Lu Weimin learned some specific information about the mechanical equipment in the machine repair shop over the phone and agreed to go there when he had no classes the next afternoon.

After dinner,

His wife and daughter decided to stay overnight and hoped that Lu Weimin would stay as well, but he declined, saying that he needed to go home to study.

His wife Li Jing knew that her husband was always diligent and would study on his own every day, rain or shine, so she did not dissuade him too much. After Lu Weimin returned home, he first went to Yan Bugui's house.

Then I went to Shazhu and chatted with him for about twenty minutes.

After all, as a social animal, a person should not just stay at home like a homebody when he gets home.

After returning home, he first went into his own personal space to take a shower.

Then I went back to my desk and concentrated on reading books and learning about mechanical engineering.

Because that's where his expertise lies.

With repeated learning,

Lu Weimin's mechanical engineering skills gradually improved.

At night,

Lu Weimin left the courtyard and walked quickly towards Chen Xueru's home in Sanlipai Hutong.

The number of patrolling soldiers along the way has obviously decreased. Usually there would be five waves, but tonight there were only three waves.

Lu Weimin speculated that this was because society was now basically stable, the ** faction had been almost eliminated, and the conference was about to be held.

Overall, the situation is getting better, so the military has reduced patrols. Lu Weimin arrived at Chen Xueru's home in Sanlipai Hutong.

Chen Xueru is also considered his woman, although there is no official status, but she is with him and is now pregnant. As long as there is a chance,

Lu Weimin would come to visit her every day.

After entering the house, he went straight to Chen Xueru's room and pushed the door open.

Chen Xueru was seen wearing a black suspender pajamas, leaning on the bed reading a book. Her white legs were covered with a quilt, revealing part of her skin and pajamas, which made her look even whiter, plumper and fuller, full of charm.

Such a scene made Lu Weimin take a second look.

"Ah! Brother Wei Min, why are you here! I'm so happy! I like such surprises, but please close the door quickly! My mother is sleeping next door!" Chen Xueru was overjoyed to see the child's father visiting late at night. She immediately lifted the quilt and got out of bed.

"Your mother is here?" When Lu Weimin heard that his mother-in-law was coming, he became a little nervous and quickly locked the door.

"Yes! You see my belly is getting bigger and bigger, my mom is worried about me, so she came to see me! ... Please like it... But I told her that the baby is only five months old and doesn't need her to take care of it for too long. She will go back in a few days, so it won't affect your visit to me at night."

Seeing that the daring father of the child was actually a little afraid of his mother, Chen Xueru couldn't help laughing. Lu Weimin knew that he had caused a little trouble, and he always felt guilty in front of his mother-in-law. Seeing Chen Xueru's smug expression, he deliberately said: "Since your mother is taking care of you, I won't stay any longer. I'll come to see you next time."

Chen Xueru got anxious when she heard this and quickly pulled Lu Weimin's arm:

"Don't leave! You can't leave! You have to stay with me and the baby!"

"I'm just kidding. I don't want to leave! Come on, get on the bed and cover yourself with the quilt. Be careful not to catch a cold!" Lu Weimin helped Chen Xueru back to bed.

"Humph, you just like to play tricks on me!"

Chen Xueru felt relieved when she saw that the child’s father had no intention of leaving.

“Do I think my dress is beautiful?”

"Very beautiful! But aren't you afraid of being criticized for wearing this in front of your mother?"

"It doesn't matter even if she says that! I've been listening to her nagging since I was a child, I'm used to it!"

"Are you not afraid of being discovered by coming here so late at night?"

"I missed you, so I came here!"

"Are you not afraid that she will know?"

"I already told her, she's fine! I don't believe you!"

"If you don't believe me, forget it. I..." Before he could finish his words, Chen Xueru kissed him on the lips.

click!

The desk lamp goes out.

The whole night was filled with warmth and sweetness.

The next morning, Lu Weimin returned to the courtyard early, got some good sleep, and then went to class.

After half a day of classes, he went to the machine repair shop in the afternoon. With his eye for accurately locating mechanical faults, he quickly found three problems. Other technicians in the factory only found two of them and therefore failed to repair them.

Discovering the problem is the first step to solving it. Lu Weimin only needs to give a little guidance and the technicians can handle it smoothly.

As expected, the problem was solved quickly, and everyone was full of praise for Lu Weimin's technical level and was convinced.

The workshop director said with a smile: "Haha! It's really good! Your salary is really worth it!"

After staying in the office for about an hour, Lu Weimin left and came to the auto repair department. When he came in, Master Ma and Master Cao were surprised and excited.

"Great! You finally came back to see us! Master Cao and I thought you had become rich and forgotten about us!"

"How is that possible! I'm back to see you two brothers. I'll treat you to dinner tonight!" "Okay! Don't leave until you're drunk!"

Master Ma and Master Cao were very happy.

Curfew lifted! The whole city celebrates! A family visits the night market.

Since entering the twelfth lunar month, the atmosphere of the New Year has become more intense, and everyone has worked harder, looking forward to a wonderful New Year. Qianmen Street, one of the busiest commercial streets in Beijing, is bustling with people and vehicles. Among them, the most eye-catching is the beautiful boss Chen Xueru.

Shop owners and workers on this street often see Chen Xueru appearing on this street every day. Her belly gradually bulges, her skin becomes more and more tender, her face becomes more and more pretty, and her figure becomes more and more plump and attractive.

Chen Xueru always attracts a lot of attention every time she shows up. "Look, Boss Chen is here so early. She is so hardworking even though she is rich and pregnant. She deserves to be rich."

"Have you noticed that Boss Chen has become even more beautiful and charming since she got married, especially after she got pregnant!" "It must be that a happy marriage makes a woman more radiant!"

"I really envy Boss Chen's husband, who can hug such a charming wife at night." "Don't talk about you, who among the men on this street doesn't envy Boss Chen's husband!" When everyone was discussing,

Suddenly, several children holding newspapers rushed into Qianmen Street. One of them ran towards Chen Xueru.

This action frightened her, and she quickly protected her belly with her hands and stepped aside. "What's wrong with these children? They are so excited that they don't care about walking safety at all!"

Then all I could hear was the children shouting, "Important news! Big news! The Military Control Commission announced today that the night curfew will be lifted starting immediately!"

When I heard this,

People on the street were shocked and excited, especially those shops that hoped to stay open at night. People rushed to the children to buy newspapers: "How much is one?" "Two for 20 cents."

"Have some!"
