Siheyuan: The Era of Struggle

Chapter 241
  Seeing that her husband had admitted his cowardice in disguise, Zhang Min was secretly proud and did not embarrass him any more.

"I heard she said that an elderly person at home was hospitalized, and her partner didn't come back, so she came over to talk to me."

At the end of the year, before the liberation, many poor people could not overcome the obstacles. After the liberation, life became a little better, but it has become a tribulation that the sick and elderly people in the north have to fight for their lives in this era.

"When we got married, Li Xuewen's family was a member of the family. Now that we know this, we have to take the time to go and have a look."

Zhang Min saw that her husband was talking about business and didn't make any noise anymore. After saying 'hmm', Zhang Min said, "I guess I won't be able to go tonight. When I get back from get off work tomorrow, I'll go buy something. Let's go together." .”

After hearing this, He Yuanchao thought about it for a moment, shook his head and said, "Don't worry about it on a cold day. It's better to just give money to buy things at this time."

When she was not married, although Zhang Min never cared about such matters at home, she could not help but feel a little worried after hearing her husband's words.

"How about just taking the money? Will the neighbors think that we are philistines and impersonal?"

Seeing the worried look on his wife's face, He Yuanchao smiled and consoled her: "What's the point? Maybe they will be grateful in their hearts for how well we handled things."

"If you marry a chicken, follow the chicken. If you marry a dog, follow the dog. If you marry a monkey, you can walk all over the mountain..."

Recalling what his mother had taught him before going out, Zhang Min pursed his lips and smiled without saying a word, acquiescing to what his man said.

Seeing that his wife no longer struggled with this issue, He Yuanchao spoke out what was on his mind.

"My parents are both in their fifties. If you find a chance to talk about them, it's best to take time to check up every year."

Zhang Min, who was lowering his head to eat, suddenly heard such words from his man. He was stunned for a moment, then raised his head and said with a smile: "Okay, when I come home one day, I will tell them the instructions of your uncle. "

After teasing him, but receiving no response, Zhang Min rolled his eyes at his man, who was lowering his head to eat, and continued: "Don't just look after me, go and say something to your godmother's house if you have time."

He Yuanchao looked up from chewing food and glanced at his wife in confusion, and then asked vaguely: "Isn't the physical condition of cadres at Minister Chen's level controlled by the organization?"

Why do you remember that when the old chief was a division commander, the digital hospital had a dedicated doctor in charge of his health? Could it be that the level of health care in the local area is different from that in Kyoto.

Zhang Min never pays attention to these things. Although he doesn't know what level he enjoys and what kind of treatment he enjoys, his momentum is not weak at all. He glanced at his man and said: "I'm talking about godmother, you go there What's wrong with Minister Chen?"

After saying that, he ignored He Yuanchao and lowered his head to compete with the rice in the bowl.

Looking at this posture, He Yuanchao didn't understand why he was asking for a bamboo craftsman - he was looking for the wrong person.

It shouldn’t be! Aren't these things something that the sons and brothers of the compound are proud of and often talk about? If he didn't know Zhang Min thoroughly, He Yuanchao would have suspected that he had married a fake girl from the courtyard.

After finishing the meal, he tidied away the dishes and chopsticks. Perhaps he was still angry at his husband for not opening or lifting a certain pot. When Zhang Min came back from the kitchen, he ignored He Yuanchao, who was smoking, and sat there minding his own business. Reading a book at the table.

Seeing his wife's attentive look, He Yuanchao couldn't help but curl his lips. What's the value of a shabby Soviet novel? If you have this kind of time, it's better for the two of them to go out for a walk.

Walk a hundred steps after a meal and live to be ninety-nine.

Thinking about it, He Yuanchao put out the cigarette butt in his hand, stood up and came to Zhang Min with a smile, "Daughter-in-law..."

"Second uncle."

Hearing the voice of Silly Zhu outside the house, He Yuanchao couldn't help cursing in his mind, "This unsighted guy is not at home to spend time with his wife at night, so what's the point of hanging around?" ' ˆ ˆ Zhang Min saw that his man heard Silly Zhu's movements and didn't make a sound or move. He couldn't help but stood up and pushed him, and whispered: "Zhu is here, go and see what's going on. .”

"Come just come. Why, as an uncle, I have to put on a whip to welcome him when he comes."

After joking with Zhang Min, He Yuanchao walked out.

"You're quite a big man, and you can't look upright all day long." Zhang Min muttered to his man's back, and then stepped into the house to get some tea.

Opening the door and going outside, he saw Shazhu taking out a large bundle wrapped in sheets from the set-up car. He Yuanchao couldn't help but joked: "Hey, I'm making progress! I know how to give gifts to my uncle."

"That's right. You are my biological uncle. It's the Chinese New Year, and I, as a nephew, can't respect you."

As he spoke, Shazhu walked up to He Yuanchao while carrying the baggage with a smile.

Glancing at Silly Zhu, and then at the brand-new model [-] women's bicycle parked under the window, He Yuanchao couldn't help but roll his eyes in his heart. Everyone in the Old He family, including himself, really had the same moral character...

Seeing his second uncle looking at the car he was riding in with a half-smile, Silly Zhu's face turned red and he hurriedly said: "Second uncle, you won't even let me enter the house on this cold day! I can shout My aunt."

As he said that, he picked up the baggage in his hand and dangled it in front of He Yuanchao.

"You're such a coward, I just bought the car for my wife. Why are you hiding it?" After saying that, he turned around and entered the house.

Silly Zhu felt relieved when he saw that his second uncle didn't look angry. He hurriedly picked up the baggage and followed him towards the house with a "hehe" smile.

As soon as he entered the room, he saw Zhang Min pouring water into the teapot on the table. Silly Zhu smiled and called "Second Aunt" before placing the bundle in his hand on the stool beside the table.

"You came by yourself? Why didn't you bring Yu Li to sit with you?"

"There's no room to take her in the car, and it's not convenient for her at night."

Sitting on the stool next to the table, Silly Zhu took the water glass handed over by Zhang Min and said with a slightly excited tone.

"That's right, this person who is living in vain is really not..."

As he spoke, Zhang Min seemed to have thought of something. In the middle of his words, he suddenly raised his voice and said, "Zhuzi, is Yu Li pregnant?"

He Yuanchao, who had just picked up the tea cup to drink water, listened to his wife's words and stopped drinking water. He held the water cup and stared at Silly Zhu.

Seeing his second uncle and his second aunt looking at him, Shazhu nodded proudly and said, "Yes, yes, Yu Li just went to the hospital for a checkup this morning."

After hearing this, Zhang Min said happily: "Okay, okay..."

He Yuanchao said with some dissatisfaction: "Then why didn't you tell me when we met at noon?"

After listening to what the two of them said, Shazhu felt that he had to reply to his second uncle first, so he said aggrievedly: "Yu Li said that I won't be allowed to fool around with outsiders for the first three months."
