Siheyuan: Starting to work in the security department

After the Spring Festival holiday, the steel mill resumed normal work.

But the atmosphere in the entire city became turbulent and strange.

But all this has nothing to do with Niu Ping'an, he still does his job step by step.

Not long after the Chinese New Year, He Yushui got married in a low-key manner.

He Yushui bought the dowry herself.

As the biggest invisible person in the hospital, no one cares who He Yushui marries.

Even her own brother Sha Zhu was indifferent to her marriage.

The Jia family was the happiest when He Yushui got married.

As soon as He Yushui left, a room in Sha Zhu's house became vacant.

As Banggeng gets older, Qin Huairu plans to let him live in Shazhu's house.

However, He Yushui had just gotten married, so Qin Huairu did not act rashly, otherwise her purpose would be too obvious.

A month passed quickly and Qin Jingru started her maternity leave as scheduled.

Niu Ping'an sent a telegram to Qinjia Village, and his mother-in-law came to the city the next day.

Originally, An Niu Ping'an meant that he would have a day off on Sunday, and then Qin's mother would come by car, and then Niu Ping'an would go to the station to pick her up.

But Qin's mother was anxious. Qin Jingru couldn't stay at home alone with her big belly. After discussing with her husband, she came to the city the next day with a lot of bags on her back.

Qin's mother's name was Liu Guifang. It was her first time in Beijing and she was unfamiliar with the place.

There is no navigation now, and I don’t want to take a rickshaw.

It took Liu Guifang several hours to find the courtyard house, and she was thirsty all the way.

But for her, who has been working in the fields all year round, this little hardship is nothing.

Liu Guifang looked at the gate of the courtyard with admiration in her eyes, saying that this house was much better than the houses of landlords in the countryside.

My daughter is blessed!

Liu Guifang walked into the courtyard and met no one in the front yard.

The central courtyard is spacious and has a pool, so most middle-aged women like to gather there.

You will always have company when doing handicrafts or chatting about family matters.

In order not to embarrass Niu Ping'an and Qin Jingru, Liu Guifang deliberately wore new clothes made last year, of course, the fabric was provided by Niu Ping'an.

When many middle-aged women in the Intermediate Court saw Liu Guifang coming with bags, they immediately realized that she must be visiting relatives.

Today, Jia Zhang also took out her shoe soles and joined in.

"Hello, comrades. Does Qin Jingru live here?"

When Liu Guifang saw a group of middle-aged women gathered together, she walked up to them and asked without showing any fear.

"Qin Jingru lives in the backyard, who are you?"

Before the other aunts could react, Jia Zhang asked first.

The hen in Liu Guifang's hand was a little dazzling, and Jia Zhang was a little greedy.

"I am Qin Jingru's mother. My name is Liu Guifang."

Liu Guifang was not clear about the rules in the city, but in the countryside, there were militia guarding the village entrances.

Liu Guifang did not dare to be careless when facing Jia Zhang's questions.

"Oh, isn't this Sixth Aunt Huairu?

I am Huairu’s mother-in-law, my name is Zhang Xiaohua. "

Jia Zhang slapped her thigh, quickly put down the shoe in her hand, and walked forward to hold Liu Guifang's hand affectionately.

The movement was so swift that everyone was stunned.

Liu Guifang was also shocked by Jia Zhang's size.

It wasn't noticeable when I was sitting in the crowd, but it became quite obvious when I stood up.

Liu Guifang was still sighing that life was good for city dwellers, but who knew that this person was Qin Huairu's mother-in-law.

"It looks like Huairu is having a good time!"

Liu Guifang thought to herself as she looked at Jia Zhang's fat body.

Jia Zhang has never been to Qinjia Village. In the past few years when life was better, Qin Huairu would bring Jia Dongxu and Banggeng to her parents' home to show off.

But later a series of misfortunes happened, and life became difficult both in the countryside and in the city. Jia Dongxu even passed away, and Qin Huairu rarely returned to her parents' home.

"Hello, Grandma Huairu!"

After all, they are related, Liu Guifang responded enthusiastically.

"Sixth Aunt Huairu, come on, come on, come to my house and sit down and have a drink of water."

Jia Zhang was extremely enthusiastic and took Liu Guifang to the Jia family.

"Are you tired from the journey? I'll help you get it!"

As she spoke, Jia Zhang's other hand reached out to the old hen.

Liu Guifang was caught off guard by Jia Zhang's enthusiasm, but she reacted quickly and felt more relieved after seeing Qin Jingru first.

Liu Guifang hid the hen behind her, avoided Jia Zhang's sudden attack, and stopped.

"Sister Zhang, I'd better go check on Jingru first. I'm worried about her being alone at home."

"Hey, Jingru is fine! Don't worry!

We have been relatives for so many years, but this is the first time we meet. He insisted on coming to my place to visit.”

Jia Zhang was unwilling to give up, so she pulled Liu Guifang to the Jia family and asked her to visit them.

Jia Zhang was also betting that this was Liu Guifang's first time coming to the courtyard and she would be embarrassed. Once the chicken entered the Jia family, she would definitely not be able to bring herself to take it back.

Then the Jia family got a chicken for free!

As for how Liu Guifang will view her in the future?

Will Jia Zhang care?

Just a peasant relative!

Liu Guifang naturally had no idea what Jia Zhang was thinking, but she just felt that Jia Zhang was quite enthusiastic.

I just felt a little strange. How come such an enthusiastic person hasn't visited Qinjia Village for more than ten years?

"Sister Zhang, I've been traveling all day and I'm still hungry. I'm going to go to Jingru's place to get something to eat.

I'll come over after I've settled Jingru down, and we can have a good chat."

Liu Guifang now wants to see Qin Jingru first.

In addition to being a little worried about Qin Jingru, I was also in a strange environment and didn't feel completely at ease.

Only after meeting Niu Ping'an and Qin Jingru did Liu Guifang let down her guard.

Having said that, Jia Zhang knew that her plan had failed.

"Okay, her sixth aunt, come over and play when you have time."

Liu Guifang followed Jia Zhang's instructions and went to the backyard.

At this time, all the aunts reacted and looked at Jia Zhang with strange eyes.

Jia Zhang was thick-skinned and didn't care about their gazes at all. However, since she didn't get any advantage, she was in no mood to sew shoe soles anymore, so she went straight back to the Jia family and lay dead.

"I thought the sun had risen from the west, and Jia Zhangshi seemed like a different person.

It turns out that you have your eyes on someone else's chicken!"

As soon as Jia Zhang left, an old lady said in a sarcastic tone.

However, he certainly wouldn't dare say that in front of Jia Zhang.

"hehe.."

The aunts nodded in agreement.

"Qin Jingru is about to give birth, right?

This girl is really lucky."

"Niu Ping'an must be worried because there is no one to take care of him at home!"

Everything has two sides, and there is strength in numbers is not just a saying.

People like Sha Zhu and Niu Ping'an, who have no elders at home, are actually at a disadvantage to a certain extent.

If He Daqing hadn't run away, Sha Zhu and He Yushui wouldn't have ended up like this.

Niu Ping'an was able to avoid being bullied because he had the right time and place.

"Life in the countryside is much better now!"

Another aunt sighed.

Liu Guifang was wearing a new cotton-padded jacket and brought an old hen with her.

"The country has recovered, and our rations have also increased significantly!"

Liu Guifang's arrival had little impact on them. After chatting for a few minutes, they turned to other topics.
