Chapter 47
After dinner,
He Daqing looked at He Yushui and said,"Yushui, I'm going back to the courtyard to get some things. Do you want to wait at home or come with me?"
He Daqing found that he had forgotten to bring a change of clothes and washing supplies when he came to Zhengyangmen in the morning, so he wanted to go back in the evening.
Hearing this, He Yushui looked at the unfamiliar new home, ran to He Daqing, grabbed his clothes, and said fearfully,"Dad, I want to go with you."
""Okay, you put on my coat, we'll go now, and bring some meat buns for your brother."
He Daqing said, and found a larger lunch box, put the slightly cold meat buns in it, and prepared to bring it to his adopted son.
Then, he helped his daughter put on her coat and packed her hand steamers.
When everything was almost ready, he took He Yushui out and headed for the courtyard in Nanluoguxiang.
He Yushui, with the hand steamers in both hands, hugged He Daqing's waist from behind, with her little face pressed against his lower back, avoiding the whistling cold wind, and felt that this was the warmest and safest place in the world.
…………
Nanluoguxiang and Qianmen Street are not very far apart. It only takes about ten minutes to get there by bike.
After the two arrived at the courtyard, they happened to meet the third uncle Yan Fugui who was strolling in the front yard.
When Yan Fugui saw He Daqing and He Yushui, he was stunned at first, and then he greeted them directly:"Old He is back at the right time. We are preparing to hold a meeting for the whole courtyard."
""A meeting of the whole courtyard?"
He Daqing was stunned for a moment when he heard this word.
To be honest, he had been through time for two or three days, and he had heard about the meeting of the whole courtyard in the TV series for a long time.
He originally thought that a meeting of the whole courtyard would be held on the night when Jia Zhang was sent directly to prison on the first day of his time travel.
As it turned out, Jia Zhang was sentenced and was to be sent to the Great Northern Wilderness to farm, and Yi Zhonghai and the other two had no intention of holding a meeting of the whole courtyard.
It was obvious that they wanted to reduce the impact of Jia Zhang's incident and did not want too many people to know about it.
The reason behind this can be understood.
Who made Jia Dongxu Yi Zhonghai's apprentice and the candidate for retirement?
The day Jia Zhang was arrested had already caused a great impact. If a meeting of the whole courtyard was held to publicize and educate, how could Jia Dongxu marry a wife in the future?
Jia Dongxu's reputation would be completely ruined.
In addition, Jia Zhang's incident was undoubtedly a very disgraceful situation for Siheyuan. Every time it was mentioned, it was equivalent to smearing Siheyuan.
So it was normal that the three managers in the courtyard were unwilling to hold a meeting of the whole courtyard for this.
"What happened in the courtyard? Could it be because of Jia Zhang's matter?"
After He Daqing came to his senses, he asked curiously.
Behind him, Xiao Yushui also stretched his head, showing great curiosity.
"Uh!" Yan Fugui was a little embarrassed when he heard this and said,"No, it was Zhang Dameng in the front yard who had an accident. His wife had a difficult delivery and was bleeding heavily. After the operation, all the money in the house was used up."
"He has been in the hospital for almost a week now. The doctor said he will have to stay in the hospital for another month or two. Unfortunately, he has elderly parents and children at home, and the amount of relief he applied for from the union is not enough. He has no other choice but to come to me for help."
"The key point is that my family is also in a difficult situation, so I discussed it with Lao Yi and Lao Liu, and prepared to hold a meeting of the whole hospital to let everyone provide support so that Zhang Dameng's family can get through this difficult time?"
"Hey, you said this matter is really like a hemp rope that only breaks at the thinnest part, and misfortune only finds the unfortunate."
The third uncle Yan Fugui said at the end, and did not forget to quote a poem
"Alas, it is indeed not easy!"
After hearing what Yan Fugui said, He Daqing sighed in agreement, but his heart was not too shaken.
To be honest, the situation of Zhang Dameng's family is indeed very sympathetic, but in the memory of the previous life, there are many families who are more miserable than Zhang Dameng's family.
If you have not experienced the old times, you will never be able to appreciate and imagine the darkness of human nature.
Even if He Daqing really ran away with the White Widow, and Jia Zhang plundered the old He family, the fate of his two children might not be much better than that of Zhang Dameng's family.
Who knows, by then, it will not only be Zhang Dameng's family who asks for help from everyone in the courtyard, but also He Yuzhu and He Yushui, the two siblings.
"OK, Brother Yan, you go and notify the other families first. I will also clean up the house, and we will talk later." Knowing that the whole hospital meeting had nothing to do with his family, He Daqing was no longer in a hurry. He said goodbye to Yan Fugui and returned to his home with his daughter.
At this time, He Yuzhu was eating.
He ate the lunch box brought back from the steel rolling mill. There was also a plate of boiled peanuts and a bottle of wine on the table.
This person seemed to be living a pretty good life.
Seeing He Daqing bringing He Yushui back, He Yuzhu was also surprised and said,"Dad, why did you bring Yushui back? Didn't you say you would stay at Zhengyangmen today?"
"Have you two eaten yet? If not, I'll make some for you right now."
He Daqing nodded with satisfaction when he heard this, then put the buns in his hand on the table and said with a smile,"Just eat yours, Yu Shui and I have already eaten."
"I steamed two big steamed meat buns, so I brought them to you. You can also take two sets of clothes back with you."
""I left in a hurry this morning and forgot to bring my and Yushui's spare clothes."
He Daqing said with a smile, and slightly reversed the order of things.
Originally, he came back to get spare clothes, and brought He Yuzhu a few large meat buns that he couldn't finish.
As a result, the order of his words was reversed, and it became that he was thinking about his son and bringing him buns, and getting spare clothes became secondary. When
Sha Zhu heard this, he was so touched that he felt that his father really loved him. He hurriedly gave up his seat to He Daqing and his sister He Yushui, and even poured a bowl of hot water to warm them up.
"By the way, has Yi Zhonghai come to inform us about the meeting of the whole hospital today?"
He Daqing sat by the stove, warmed his hands, and asked his silly son in a somewhat nonchalant manner:
""I've come to notify you." He Yuzhu said as he took out the big meat bun from the lunch box and heated it on the fire.
Then he continued,"The uncle has told me that tonight's whole-yard meeting is for Zhang Dameng's family in the front yard. He also told me that Zhang Dameng's family is having a hard time right now and asked me to cooperate with him and try to donate more money to Zhang Dameng's family so that they can get through this difficult time."
"I think this is a good thing, so I agreed to it immediately."
Sha Zhu said indifferently, not thinking there was anything wrong with it. He Daqing frowned when he heard this and said,"What do you mean you should cooperate with him? And you are trying to donate more money to Zhang Dameng's family, are you stupid?"...............................
