Chapter 98 Aunt Tan and Lou Xiao’e visit
As time passed, He Yuzhu also resumed his daily work routine. He ran to the city bureau cafeteria and home every day. Occasionally, he would go to the black market and exchange food for some collectible antiques.
This day is Sunday, and He Yuzhu is also resting at home. Yuyu was reading and studying while Song Jinfeng was cleaning the house. He Yuzhu held Xiaopingan and taught him to shout: "Dad."
While He Yuzhu was playing around with Xiao Ping'an, there was a knock on the courtyard door.
"Yu Yu, please take care of Xiao Ping An. I'll go see who's coming." He Yuzhu put Xiao Ping An on the small bed.
"Okay." Yuyu put down the pen and paper and came over to look at Xiaopingan.
He Yuzhu walked out of the house and opened the door, and saw Aunt Tan and Lou Xiao'e coming.
"Aunt Tan, Xiao'e, why are you here?"
"Why, you're not welcome?" Aunt Tan joked with a smile.
"Brother Zhuzi." Lou Xiao'e also greeted He Yuzhu with a smile.
"How could it be? Welcome Aunt Tan and Xiao'e to the humble house." He Yuzhu invited Aunt Tan and Lou Xiao'e to come in.
The driver of the Lou family followed in carrying large and small packages of gifts.
Aunt Tan: "Zhuzi, you have done a good job in cleaning up your courtyard."
He Yuzhu: "It was like this when I bought it, so I found someone to take care of it."
After entering the house, the driver put down his things and went out. Lou Xiao'e saw Yuyu taking care of Xiao Ping'an, so she went to find Yuyu.
When Song Jinfeng heard someone coming, he put down the rag in his hand and came out to greet the guests.
Aunt Tan saw Xiaopingan and came over. Xiaopingan was happy to see so many people and stretched out her hand.
Aunt Tan picked up Xiao Ping An and said, "This child is so lively and not afraid of life."
Song Jinfeng: "He is also naughty."
Aunt Tan: "It's better for boys to be naughty."
The two began to exchange experiences in raising children. Most of them were Aunt Tan teaching Song Jinfeng how to raise children.
He Yuzhu went to the kitchen and poured some tea and came back: "Let's sit down and chat and drink some tea. Yu Yu, go get some peanuts, pine nuts or something."
"Okay. Sister Xiao'e, please sit down and I'll get you something delicious." Yuyu turned around to get snacks.
After Yu Yu brought back the dried fruits and snacks, He Yuzhu invited everyone to sit down.
"Sister Xiao'e, try some. My brother made these himself." Yu Yu pushed the sugar-fried chestnuts and dried meat in front of Lou Xiao'e.
Lou Xiao'e took a bite of the dried meat and said, "Yeah, it's delicious."
He Yuzhu: "If you like to eat, take some with you when you leave."
Aunt Tan took a sip of tea, her lips and teeth were fragrant: "Zhuzi, your tea is as delicious as ever."
He Yuzhu: "It's just some wild tea. Bring some to Uncle Lou when you leave."
Aunt Tan: "Okay, then I won't be polite to you."
The three of them chatted for a while before Aunt Tan revealed the purpose.
Aunt Tan: "Zhuzi, I have to thank you. If you hadn't reminded me, Xiao'e would have been blamed."
He Yuzhu: "Why, what did Aunt Tan find out?"
Aunt Tan: "Yes, your Uncle Lou and I found someone to follow Xu Damao. We found that he went to the countryside to show movies, and had some unknown relationships with some people. He even had a relationship with a young widow."
If Xu Damao knew that his talking was disrupting his marriage, I wonder if he would come knocking on his door.
Aunt Tan continued: "I also asked someone to investigate the courtyard house where you lived before. There was a lot of chaos in it. That Yi Zhonghai favored his apprentice's family. His apprentice's mother was rolling around in the yard and no one dared to mess with it. . If Xiao'e marries there, she will definitely be bullied."
songs I can only whisper behind my back. I also have to be bullied."
Aunt Tan: "After knowing Xu Damao and the situation in the compound, your Uncle Lou and I didn't plan to let Xiao'e marry Xu Damao. We told Xu Damao's parents, but they scolded him and went Reported us. We were targeted.
During this period, your Uncle Lou found a lot of connections. In addition, he helped some people before the liberation of the Lou family, and actively responded to the call after the liberation, and this was settled.
After this incident, your Uncle Lou has finally made up his mind and is ready to take us to Xiangjiang, leaving your Uncle Lou's brother here. "
I just wanted to prevent Lou Xiao'e from falling into the unfortunate marriage of the original plot, so I said more words. Unexpectedly, he flapped his little butterfly wings and caused the Lou family to leave early. I don’t know what the plot of Siheyuan will be like.
He Yuzhu: "It's okay to leave. Although the Xiangjiang side is now controlled by foreigners, we will take it back sooner or later. It is also friendly to capitalists. If you have money, you will not have a bad life there, but you have to look for more. Get some bodyguards and get some guns for self-defense. There are many gangs there and the public order is chaotic."
Aunt Tan: "Zhuzi, do you still know about the situation in Xiangjiang?"
He Yuzhu: "I heard it through hearsay."
Aunt Tan: "Zhuzi, do you want to go to Xiangjiang with us? When we get to Xiangjiang, we can open a Tan's restaurant. The business will definitely be good."
He Yuzhu: "I have no plans to go out yet. We will talk about it later. Maybe one day I will take them out to have a look."
Aunt Tan: "Since you don't want to go out now, forget it."
After chatting for a while, it was almost noon, and Aunt Tan and Lou Xiao'e got up and left.
He Yuzhu went to pack a large bag of dried meat, roasted chestnuts with sugar, pine nuts, etc. and brought them to Lou Xiaoe. He also asked the driver of the Lou family to help move several large jars of wine to the car.
He Yuzhu handed Aunt Tan a box of tea: "Aunt Tan, bring this box of tea to Uncle Lou."
"Zhuzi, then I won't be polite to you." Aunt Tan took the tea, took out a pen and paper from the car, wrote an address, and handed it to He Yuzhu: "This is our address in Xiangjiang. If you come When you go to Xiangjiang, don’t forget to find us.”
Lou Xiao'e also said goodbye to Yuyu: "Yuyu, if you have a chance, go to Xiangjiang to find me."
Rainwater: "Sister Xiao'e, if you have the chance to come back, don't forget to come see me."
After waiting for the car to drive away, He Yuzhu took Song Jinfeng and the others back to the house.
Song Jinfeng: "Let's put away the gifts brought by Aunt Tan first. Yuyu is here to help."
"Okay, sister-in-law." Yuyu helped Song Jinfeng organize the gifts.
"There are cans, brother, let's open one and eat it." Yu Yu picked up a can of yellow peach and said to He Yuzhu.
He Yuzhu: "Why eat canned food? You will be short of fruits all year round."
Rainwater: "Fruit is fruit, canned food is canned food."
Seeing that the two brothers and sisters were about to quarrel again, Song Jinfeng stopped them and said: "Stop arguing, just open one. I haven't eaten canned food for a long time."
"It's better, sister-in-law, here, hurry up and open the can, we're waiting to eat." Yu Yu thrust the can to He Yuzhu.
"Okay, I'll open it." He Yuzhu took out a screwdriver and opened a can.
"Go, go to the kitchen and get the bowls. Share them and eat some." He Yuzhu directed Yu Yu to get the bowls.
When Yuyu brought the bowl, He Yuzhu shared it with Song Jinfeng and Yuyu.
After eating, continue to tidy up. Aunt Tan brought a lot of things this time: 4 cans of milk powder, 6 bottles of canned food, dried sea cucumbers, bird's nests, shark's fins, abalone, etc., all in large quantities.
Song Jinfeng: "This is too much, isn't it too expensive?"
He Yuzhu: "Don't worry, keep it. Their family is leaving, so it's troublesome to keep it and take it away. Just buy it after you go to Xiangjiang."
Song Jinfeng: "Okay, I'll listen to you."
He Yuzhu helped Song Jinfeng store everything.
