Living in a Siheyuan

In the following days, Li Pingan went to work as usual. He couldn't do such things that would attract attention often, as it didn't suit his low-key personality. And if it was too easy to get, it would seem less precious.

Until mid-August, Li Pingan completed his tasks every week, which were rabbits, pheasants and the like. Even these were praised by Liu Zhiwei, the head of the purchasing department.

After completing the task and getting off work that day, Li Pingan returned home. While eating, he heard a messy noise in the yard. As soon as he went out, he saw Yan Jiecheng running out of the door.

Li Pingan didn't have time to ask what happened. So he went into the front yard and saw everyone gathered at the gate of Jia's house in the middle yard. Li Pingan didn't want to have any contact with the Jia family. He stood by the corridor and watched. After listening for a long time, he found out that Qin Huairu had just fallen and was about to give birth.

After hearing about this, Li Pingan lost interest and just chatted with others in the corner.

Now in the Jia family, Qin Huairu was screaming in pain. Jia Dongxu was leaning on a cane and was anxious, while Jia Zhang was still cursing while packing up the things for the birth.

Only Yi Zhonghai was giving orders at the scene. He asked Yan Jiecheng to find a cart first. At this moment, he was asking a few middle-aged women to comfort Qin Huairu.

After a while, Yan Jiecheng came running over and said that the cart had been pulled to the door.

Yi Zhonghai looked at Jia Dongxu limping and could do nothing. He shouted to He Yuzhu, "Zhuzi, quickly carry Qin Huairu to the cart outside. We will take her to the hospital together."

Sha Zhu who was named was a little hesitant at this time. Is it appropriate for a grown man like him to hug Jia Dongxu's wife?

Jia Dongxu was also a little unwilling. What would it be like if his wife was carried out by someone else?

Yi Zhonghai also saw what Jia Dongxu and He Yuzhu were thinking. He said to Jia Dongxu, "Dongxu, now is not the time to think about this. Your legs and feet are not convenient, let Zhuzi quickly move Huairu to the car and send her to the hospital. This cannot be delayed. Your mother and the others can't move Huairu either!"

Then he said to He Yuzhu: "Zhuzi, don't think too much, you are just helping others. No one will say anything. Hurry up!"

Jia Dongxu thought about it and could do nothing but nodded in agreement. However, judging from the way he tightly grasped the cane with both hands, he was struggling inside.

At this time, Sha Zhu was also helpless by Yi Zhonghai's words, so he gritted his teeth and went into Jia's house. Seeing Qin Huairu lying on the bed in pain, he stepped forward and said, "Sister-in-law of the Jia family, please bear with it. The uncle asked me to move you to the cart outside."

Qin Huairu was in so much pain that she didn't have time to think about it and just nodded.

Jia Zhang said, "Silly Zhu, hurry up and be careful. Don't hurt my Jia family's grandson. Otherwise, I will make you pay."

Sha Zhu gritted his teeth and walked forward to hold Qin Huairu in his arms and walked out. It was the first time for him to hold a woman, and the feminine scent of Qin Huairu also rushed into Sha Zhu's nose. Holding the soft Qin Huairu, he quickly put away the strange thoughts in his mind.

When he reached the door, Jia Dongxu saw Qin Huairu being held by Sha Zhu, and he felt even more upset.

Yi Zhonghai said quickly: "Everyone, please make way. We are sending Qin Huairu to the hospital. Sister-in-law Jia, hurry up and take your things and follow us."

After saying that, he followed Sha Zhu outside, and Jia Zhang followed behind, carrying a bundle.

Here, Sha Zhu held Qin Huairu and walked carefully towards the door, fearing that they would fall if they were distracted.

When they reached the door, he slowly put Qin Huairu on the cart, and then drove the cart to the hospital with Yi Zhonghai and Jia Zhangshi.

When everyone saw that everyone had left, they slowly dispersed.

Only Jia Dongxu returned to the house in a depressed mood, and saw his son Banggen playing there without any care. He raised his crutches and beat Banggeng, who ran out crying.

Besides, Sha Zhu pulled the cart with Yi Zhonghai and arrived at the hospital quickly, but Jia Zhangshi couldn't keep up and was still behind.

At the hospital entrance, Sha Zhu continued to hold Qin Huairu and walked into the hospital.

Arriving at the hospital, the nurse quickly led them to the obstetrics and gynecology department. After the doctor examined her, he said to Sha Zhu, "She's about to give birth. One of you should go and pay the fee. I'll pack up and take her to the delivery room."

After hearing this, Yi Zhonghai saw that Jia Zhangshi didn't come, so he had no choice but to go and pay the fee first.

The doctor here said to Sha Zhu, "I'll go clean up the delivery room and get some medicines. You change your wife's clothes." Then he took out a set of hospital gown and handed it to Sha Zhu, then went out.

Sha Zhu was also stunned at this time. Why did he change clothes for others? Jia Zhangshi did not follow.

Qin Huairu felt a little better at this time, so she said to Sha Zhu, "Zhu Zi, give me your clothes and wait at the door."

After hearing this, Sha Zhu quickly gave the clothes to Qin Huairu, and then he left the ward and closed the door. He stood guard at the door.

Just as Sha Zhu was distractedly recalling the warm feeling of hugging Qin Huairu, he suddenly heard a "Aiya" from inside. It seemed like something fell to the ground.

So he pushed the door open without thinking and saw Qin Huairu's snow-white body at a glance. She had already put on her upper body, but she fell down when she was putting on her pants. Now Sha Zhu stared at Qin Huairu blankly, not knowing what to do?

Qin Huairu also saw Sha Zhu and found that she had not put on her pants yet. She also screamed: "Sha Zhu, why don't you get out!"

Sha Zhu was awakened by Qin Huairu's cry, and hurriedly covered his eyes and left the room. But that touch of white kept flashing in his mind, and he couldn't forget it.

When Sha Zhu was leaning against the door and thinking about something, he heard Qin Huairu inside telling him to come in.

Sha Zhu entered the ward, feeling guilty and not daring to look at Qin Huairu. Qin Huairu also blushed and said, "Zhuzi, help me to the bed first."

After hearing what Qin Huairu said, Sha Zhu hurriedly helped Qin Huairu lie down on the bed and covered her with a quilt.

Qin Huairu said, "Zhu Zi, just pretend what happened just now never happened. You didn't see anything. Don't tell anyone about it in the future, do you hear me? Otherwise, I won't be able to live." Qin Huairu burst into tears as she spoke.

Seeing Qin Huairu's tearful face, Sha Zhu felt very distressed. He quickly said, "Sister Qin, don't worry, I didn't see anything just now. I will never tell anyone even if you kill me."

Qin Huairu wiped her tears and said, "I know you are a good person, Zhuzi. Sister Qin believes that you will not say anything nonsense."

Sha Zhu also quickly promised again and swore not to tell anyone about this.

While the two were talking, Yi Zhonghai came back from paying the bill. Seeing Qin Huairu lying on the bed, he asked, "Where is the doctor? What did he say?"

Sha Zhu was a little embarrassed and didn't know how to start. Qin Huairu said, "Uncle, it's okay. The doctor just asked the nurse to change my clothes and go to the delivery room. I'll be fine soon."

After hearing this, Sha Zhu quickly nodded and said, "Yes, yes, the nurse just left. They said they were going to prepare the delivery room and get some medicine."

Yi Zhonghai didn't think much about it. They just stayed in the ward and talked while waiting for the doctor and Jia Zhang.

Soon, Jia Zhang came in breathlessly, carrying a bag. As soon as she entered the ward, she cursed, "Shazhu, why are you running so fast? You didn't even put the bag in the car and brought it here. You made me tired all the way."

After saying that, he sat down on the chair next to him and said to Qin Huairu, "You are such a big person, and you still fell down. Don't you know that you are about to give birth? If you hadn't fallen down, would we have needed to come to the hospital? I don't know how much cheaper it would be to find a midwife than to go to the hospital? You are so precious!"

Qin Huairu's eyes welled up with tears again when she heard Jia Zhang say this to her. Yi Zhonghai couldn't stand it anymore and said, "Okay, we are in the hospital, don't make a fuss. I have already paid the hospital fees for you, and you can pay me back slowly when Dongxu gets a job. Now it's fine as long as he is fine."

When Jia Zhang heard that the fees had been paid, she stopped making a fuss. Anyway, her family had no intention of paying back Yi Zhonghai's money.

Seeing Qin Huairu crying again, Sha Zhu felt upset. But he couldn't say anything, so he left the room and sat in the corridor waiting.

After a while, the doctor came. Soon Qin Huairu was pushed into the delivery room. Yi Zhonghai and the other two were waiting at the door.

Yi Zhonghai is feeling less and less secure now, and his hands are shaking more severely. He has a hard time processing ordinary workpieces. He is afraid that if he continues like this, his work grade will be reduced to a very low level, or he will be transferred from his current position. Will Jia Dongxu still listen to him? Will he still provide for his retirement?

Some time ago, he discussed with the aunt that if Qin Huairu gave birth to another boy, they would adopt the child as their godchild. This way, they would feel more at ease in the future.

He was not afraid that Jia Dongxu would not agree. The Jia family already owed him a lot of money. It would probably be difficult to pay it back. Besides, Jia Dongxu couldn't go to work yet and still needed his help.

That's why he was so concerned about Qin Huairu giving birth this time. He also wanted Qin Huairu to remember his kindness and be grateful to him in the future.

As several people were anxiously waiting, the cry of a baby was finally heard in the delivery room.

Now everyone felt relieved.

Soon a nurse came out holding the baby and said to them, "Mother and daughter are safe! The baby is healthy, just a little thin. You hold the baby first, the adult will be out soon."

Then he handed the child over.

Jia Zhang was originally in the front, but she stopped when she heard the words "mother and daughter". She said to the nurse, "Isn't it a boy?"

When the nurse saw that Jia Zhang was not going to take the child, she said angrily, "What's wrong with a girl? Is a girl not yours?"

After saying that, he stuffed the child into Sha Zhu's hands and said, "My daughter is also a treasure. Take good care of her."

After saying that, the nurse turned and left.

Sha Zhu was stunned. How could he hold a child before? Looking at the little person in the package, he didn't even dare to breathe.

So he quickly looked at Yi Zhonghai with a look for help.

Although Yi Zhonghai was a little disappointed, he was still relatively rational. He said to Jia Zhang: "No matter whether it is a boy or a girl, you should take the child to the ward first. It will be troublesome if he catches a cold later."

After hearing this, Jia Zhang curled her lips but said nothing. She took the child from Sha Zhu's arms and went into the ward.

After the child was taken away, Sha Zhu heaved a sigh of relief. He said to Yi Zhonghai, "This child is so small, I was afraid he would be blown away by a breath."

Yi Zhonghai also said: "Your brother Dongxu's family is in financial difficulty, and Huairu didn't eat anything to supplement her nutrition during her pregnancy. That's why the child is so small. She will be fine after some supplementation."

As they were talking, Qin Huairu was pushed out of the delivery room by the doctor. Seeing that Qin Huairu was fine, Sha Zhu was relieved. But he didn't know why he was worried about Qin Huairu. He just couldn't help thinking about Qin Huairu in his heart.

Qin Huairu was pushed into the ward. Yi Zhonghai and Sha Zhu could not go in again, so they said to Jia Zhang: "Sister-in-law of the Jia family, you stay here to take care of Huairu. Zhuzi and I will go back. I will ask my man to replace you tomorrow."

After saying that, he took Shazhu home.

After Sha Zhu returned the car to the neighbor, he went home and lay directly on the bed. The whiteness kept flashing through his mind. Thinking back to the soft feeling of hugging Qin Huairu, Sha Zhu, who had never been in contact with a woman, was confused.

That night, Sha Zhu tossed and turned and couldn't fall asleep, so he completely suffered from insomnia.
