Siheyuan: He Yuzhu since 1958

After Yu Li was sent to the delivery room, Li Huaide reluctantly put the baby on the crib next to Yu Li. Li Huaide left two female workers to take care of Yu Li, and then left the hospital with his people.

At the same time, a man from the steel mill union rode his bicycle to the address Yan Jiecheng left and arrived at No. 95 Nanluoguxiang. The three aunts who were chatting with their neighbors at the door saw the sudden appearance of the stranger and asked, "Comrade, who are you looking for?!"

The man said, "I'm from the Steel Mill Union. Excuse me, are Yan Jiecheng's parents' home here?!"

The third aunt replied: "I am Yan Jiecheng's mother. Comrade, what can I do for you?!"

The man replied, "You are Yan Jiecheng's mother, that's great! Congratulations! Yan Jiecheng's wife Yu Li gave birth to a son. Comrade Yan Jiecheng is on a business trip and can't come back for a while, so we can only come here to inform you. I hope you can go over and take care of him."

The third aunt asked: "Has Yu Li's family been notified?!"

The man replied: "We have sent someone to notify them."

"Thank you! I got it! I'll go to the hospital right away." Auntie No. 3 watched the person who delivered the letter leave, and immediately showed a bright smile on her face. The neighbor next to her complimented: "Auntie No. 3, congratulations! You are now a grandmother!"

The third aunt said, "You know, Jie Cheng made our old Yan very angry last time. Whether to go to the hospital or not, we have to wait until our old Yan comes back and asks him before we can decide."

The neighbor next door advised: "Third Aunt, they say that a father and son don't hold grudges overnight. It's been so long, Third Uncle should have calmed down. Besides, didn't Yu Li give birth to a big fat boy for your family?! Even if not for your son, at least for your grandson, go and see him, right?!"

The third aunt hesitated for a moment, then took the opportunity to back off and agreed with a smile: "Okay! I'll listen to you! I'll pack up and go to the hospital to see my grandson." After that, the third aunt took her things and went home. After a simple packing, the third aunt happily left the courtyard.

At the same time, Yu Li's mother anxiously walked into the ward. A colleague who was guarding the ward saw Yu Li's mother and asked, "Comrade, who are you looking for?!"

At this moment, Yu Li opened her eyes and shouted, "Mom!"

When the colleague who was guarding in the ward heard that Yu Li's mother had arrived, he felt that his mission was accomplished. He immediately said hello to Yu Li's mother and left the ward.

Yu Li's mother walked to the bedside, took a look at the child on the crib, and said with a smile: "This child really looks like you when you were a child." Then she put away her smile and asked: "Where is Jie Cheng?! Why didn't he stay by your side during such a big event as giving birth?!"

Yu Li replied, "He's on a business trip. This time he's going to a place close to Haitang. I asked him to stop by to see Haitang and give her some money and tickets."

Yu Li's mother said: "Haitang is such a jerk. I don't know what she was thinking. She only wrote three letters home in a year. I don't know how she is doing now?!"

Yu Li fished out an envelope from under her pillow, took out two Great Unity coupons and several meat coupons, national grain coupons and sugar coupons, handed them to her mother and said, "Mom! Take these money and coupons. Buy me some food."

Yu Li's mother understood what Yu Li meant. Besides, if she didn't love her daughter, who else would? Yu Li's mother put away the money and bills and said, "Okay! I'll take these first. Your father has already asked me to take care of you during the confinement period."

Yu Li smiled and said, "My parents are still the best! After all, they are my biological parents!"

"Yu Li!" When Yu Li was happily chatting with her mother, the door of the ward was pushed open by the third aunt. When Yu Li saw the third aunt, her face changed instantly. After being with Li Huaide for so long, Yu Li also became a bit cunning. Yu Li immediately smiled and shouted, "Mom!"

"Hey!" The third aunt responded with a smile, walked to the crib, glanced at the child on the bed, then looked at Yu Li and said, "Yu Li, you've worked hard!"

Yu Li replied: "Mom! This is what I should do."

The third aunt unconsciously took another look at the child and said, "Yu Li, have you chosen a name for the child?!"

Li Huaide had already chosen a name for the child. Yu Li said: "It's already been chosen. Xie Cheng and I have already discussed it. If it's a boy, we'll call him Tianfu, and if it's a girl, we'll just give her the single character 'Lin'."

"Oh! Tianfu, what a good name!" The third aunt agreed with a smile and asked, "Yu Li, where are you going to spend your confinement period?!"

Yu Li looked at her mother and said with a smile: "Where else can we do it?! At home, of course."

"Mother-in-law!" Yu Li's mother said, "Don't worry! I will take good care of Yu Li during her confinement."

The third aunt's expression changed several times in an instant, and she said, "Yu Li is the daughter-in-law of our Yan family. Of course, I, the mother-in-law, will take care of her during the confinement period."

Yu Li said, "Mom! You and Dad are used to being frugal. If I don't eat well, I won't have milk. Then the baby will be hungry. Mom, I've been used to eating my mother's cooking since I was a child. Even if the food is bad, I can eat a few more bites out of habit, and then the baby can get a few more mouthfuls of milk."

The third aunt had originally wanted to make some money from it, but she had not expected Yu Li to refuse so straightforwardly. The third aunt sighed silently in her heart, chatted with Yu Li and her mother for a few more words, and left the ward.

After the third aunt left, Yu Li's mother said, "Daughter, I really shouldn't have let you marry Yan Jiecheng."

Yu Li said, "Mom! I'm already married." Then she glanced at the child and continued, "And the child has already been born."

Yu Li's mother sighed unconsciously and didn't say much.

"My dear, what's wrong with you?" Auntie No. 3 had just walked into the alley where the courtyard was located when she ran into Uncle No. 3 who was coming back from get off work. Uncle No. 3 couldn't help asking when he saw his wife looking distracted.

The third aunt said, "Old Yan, I just went to the hospital."

When Yan Bugui heard that his wife had gone to the hospital, he immediately became anxious and asked, "What's wrong with you? What did the doctor say?!"

The third aunt replied, "It's not that I'm feeling unwell. It's that Yu Li gave birth. She gave birth to a big fat boy. Jie Cheng was on a business trip. The factory notified us to come home. So I went to take a look."

"What?!" Yan Bugui was slightly stunned, then quickly came to his senses and said excitedly: "I'm a grandfather?!"

The third aunt said, "What's so exciting about being a grandfather?! I went to see Yu Li and wanted to help her during her confinement. I didn't expect that she wouldn't appreciate it and looked down on us."

Yan Bugui smiled and said, "Isn't this a good thing?! You don't have to take care of me during my confinement, and you're not happy?!"

The third aunt said, "Everyone says you are calculating, but after all this time, you only care about the small profits! You don't understand, Jie Cheng and Yu Li are both working, they have money and tickets. If I take care of her for a month, our family will not only benefit from the food, but also take good care of the child. They both have to go to work, and the child care will fall into our hands in the future. Asking them for some money for child care every month is not too much, right?!"

Yan Bugui thought about it and realized that it was true. He smiled and said, "There's no rush. Let's go home and think about it carefully. We will definitely come up with a solution."
