Scholars in the courtyard.

Chapter 108 You just can't stop

When the Jia family had a child, it was natural that the courtyard was full of chatter. Jia and Zhang talked about what happened to their grandson whenever they met, as if they were afraid that others would not know.

Jia Dongxu also smiled happily, and he was in a daze from time to time when he went to work, laughing endlessly.

In the past two days, Jia Zhang has been wandering outside Yang Xiaotao's yard a lot, and even flaunted it loudly, just to anger Yang Xiaotao.

For this, Yang Xiaotao should eat and sleep, and should not be angry with her at all.

Of course, the Jiazhang family's targets are Uncle Chen's house, Xu Damao's house, and other people who are not pleasing to the eye in the yard, so they all come to patronize them.

This allowed the people in the yard to gossip, and many people avoided the Jia family and didn't want to deal with them.

Fortunately, the Jia family's happy time didn't last too long, and the people in the courtyard noticed that Jia Zhang, who was usually unshakable and leisurely in the courtyard, began to become anxious, and even dark circles appeared under his eyes.

After inquiring about a few close friends, they immediately knew what was going on.

It turned out that Qin Huairu gave birth to a baby for the first time, and she didn't have much milk, and the stick is a very good eater, so she would make a fuss when she was not full, which made Jia's family very anxious.

In order to let Qin Huairu have milk, Jia Zhang didn't care about other things, and bought pig's trotters and stewed chicken just gritted his teeth.

During the three days in the hospital, Qin Huairu lived like a princess.

In the past three days, Jia Zhang's during the day and Jia Dongxu at night waited on the bedside, and the aunt brought some things from time to time, and she gained a lot of weight.

For Qin Huairu's milk, for fear of starving the eldest grandson, Jia Zhang's private money has shrunk sharply, making Qin Huairu enjoy eating.

But just like that, Qin Huairu still didn't have much milk, and the child disappeared after a while, and howled from hunger, his voice filled the entire hospital.

If it was before, Jia Zhang would say happily, "The child has a loud voice, so he must be energetic."

But now, hearing this cry made her afraid.

The young Jia Geng was born prematurely and has a thin body. If he doesn't have enough to eat, what if something happens to him?

The anxious Jia Zhang and Jia Dongxu can only hope that the uncle and others can find milk powder, and also need some malted milk essence.

It's just that in this day and age, eating is a problem. How can it be easy to find milk powder for children?

The old man searched all over his connections, and finally went through Deputy Factory Manager Li's network, and found someone who could get milk powder in the black market.

It's just that the price is prohibitively expensive. If there is no milk powder ticket, a can will cost five yuan.

The uncle had no choice but to leave the decision to the Jia family. Hearing about the expensive milk powder, Jia Zhang was also hesitant, but Jia Dongxu felt sorry for his son, so he gritted his teeth and bought it.

In the end, for the sake of his grandson, Jia Zhang also went all out and bought milk powder.

However, Jia Geng, the future pillar of the Jia family, opened his mouth to drink, drank and slept, and urinated. A can of milk powder was gone in three days, and then continued to make trouble.

These days, milk powder is not [-] to [-] grams, but small tins, and a full dozen is only [-] to [-] grams, seven to eight spoons at a time, [-] to [-] grams per meal, and sometimes extra meals, such a small amount of milk powder is not enough for drink?

In this way, when the Jia family carried the mother and son back to the courtyard, a week had passed, and Jia Geng's child also drank two cans of milk powder.

The Jia family also began to feel the financial pressure.

In the end, the money was gone and I couldn't buy anymore. Even with the help of the uncle, I only bought two cans.

But Jia's family didn't dare to open the bar to drink, so Jia Zhang could only feed it with millet porridge and milk powder.

However, as the successor of the white-eyed wolf, Jia Geng didn't give any face at all. He tasted something different from the original taste, so he stopped drinking immediately and opened his voice to cry.

Children don't eat, and adults are worried.

No choice but to change it again.

Jia Zhang was also embarrassed, she didn't dare to beat such a small child, and she didn't listen to reason, so she could only vent her anger on Qin Huairu.

Scolding her every day, a pair of lanterns are not too small, why is there no milk?

What Qin Huairu said was also uncomfortable, she didn't know it would be like this?

I thought that with my figure, it would be no problem to raise a child, but who knew that it turned out to be a good-looking one. It is really embarrassing to say it.

Qin Huairu had just had two days of good life, and wanted to continue enjoying it for a few more days, when she was kicked out of bed by Jia Zhang to take care of the child.

Qin Huairu had no choice but to support her body and take care of the child.

However, she has a strong body, and Jia Geng is thin, so there is no problem for a while.

It's just that seeing her son not getting enough to eat every day makes her feel anxious as a mother.

Every day, the yard is full of children crying, and sometimes they are woken up in the middle of the night. If you have a good temper, you can understand it, and if you have a bad temper, you will scold in the yard on the spot.

They are all factory workers, and they also do physical work. If they don't get enough rest and have an accident, they will be the pillars of the family.

Faced with the anger of the crowd, Jia Zhang did not dare to stand up. The last time he committed public anger and was blocked by the third master and was beaten up, he could only ask the elder to suppress it.

Jia's family was also deeply affected by it. Their house was only one room, although a curtain was drawn in the middle to divide it into two rooms, but after having this child, it will be even more crowded. When one side cries, the other side just sleeps Even the dead can wake up.

The dark circles under Jia Zhang’s eyes these days are caused by the children’s fuss at night. Jia Dongxu was also distracted when he went to work, as if he was not awake, and the workpiece he was doing was a pile of waste products. The group leader jumped in anger.

As for Qin Huairu, she couldn't eat well, sleep well, and worried about her son's nutrition. Under multiple pressures, her face, which had just gained weight, lost weight within a week, her eyes were bloodshot, and her face was haggard.

After entering mid-October, it was already cold in Sijiu City to wear long sleeves.

The night became more deserted, Yang Xiaotao went out to pour water in the vegetable garden, and was ready to go home.

At this time, the Jia family heard the cries of children again, as well as the noise of adults.

Before he could return to the house, he saw a figure running out from Jia's house and rushing straight to the house of the great master Yi Zhonghai.

"Jia Zhang?"

"This old godmother!"

Yang Xiaotao knew it was Jia Zhang when he saw the stubby figure, but he couldn't figure out why he was looking for Yi Zhonghai at such a late hour, "Isn't it because I don't have money to buy milk powder, haha."

The corner of Yang Xiaotao's mouth curled up, admiring the Jia family.

How can any child drink milk powder all the time these days?
You must know that milk powder is not available in China, and all the drinks on the market are imported, so can it be cheaper?

Babies born in rural areas are also made of corn mush, at most they drink millet porridge, and there are really few homemade ones like Jia's.

Yang Xiaotao returned to the house, but Jia Zhang complained about the bitterness at Yi Zhonghai's house.

It wasn't until the middle of the night that Yi Zhonghai was so sleepy that he vaguely said something for her tomorrow, and then sent Jia Zhang back.

On the weekend, Yang Xiaotao and Uncle Chen made an appointment to go fishing in the West Sea. These days, Yang Xiaotao wants to save up his credits to upgrade his cooking skills. By then, the second-level cooking skills should have a lot of gains.

Of course, fishing skills can also be upgraded to the third level, not to mention the fish caught, even the monthly gifts are a big income.

Therefore, fishing subsidy "ingredients" have become an important source of materials, and it is also good to stop some people's mouths.

Waking up in the morning, Yang Xiaotao took a golden fishing rod and went out with Uncle Chen. Before he could walk out of the courtyard, he was stopped by Yi Zhonghai.

"Old Chen, Xiao Tao, wait a moment!"

Yi Zhonghai stopped the two of them, and came to him with dark circles under his eyes, obviously he didn't sleep well last night.

Last night, he who was asleep was woken up by Mrs. Jia Zhang, then complained, and finally made a request, which made it difficult for him as an uncle.

After thinking about it for most of the night, he finally couldn't help it. He had to help the Jia family's affairs, otherwise the relationship would be bad, and the previous investment was in vain?
So, after thinking about it, this matter still had to fall on Yang Xiaotao if he wanted to solve it.

No way, who made him alone in the courtyard and occupied two houses?

However, he also knew about the relationship between Yang Xiaotao and the Jia family, and it would be light to say that they would not interact with each other until death. Yang Xiaotao would not interfere with anyone who had the slightest relationship with the Jia family.

So, this thing needs a detour.

"Master, you got up so early, what's the matter?"

Yang Xiaotao carried the bamboo basket, indicating that if there was something to do, speak up quickly.

Uncle Chen stood aside and didn't speak, but he didn't look good either.

Yi Zhonghai saw people gradually appearing in the yard, so he hurriedly said.

"Xiaotao, it's really a trivial matter."

"No, there are two rooms in your house. I want Shazhu to live in your place for a few days."

"In this way, silly Zhu vacated the house and let Qin Huairu bring the child in, and it would save the child from crying at night and make everyone sleep uneasy!"

As Yi Zhonghai said, he didn't forget to carry the will of the people in the compound along with him, as if he was thinking for everyone.

"Master, this matter was brought up by the Jia family."

Yang Xiaotao remembered seeing Jia Zhang's figure last night, so he didn't have to think that it must be the old witch's trick.

Heh, I was afraid that I wouldn't let them live, so I let Shazhu come over. The house he vacated happened to be for Jia's family. I guess it would be a year of the monkey if I paid it back after using it.

"No, I'm thinking about it for the compound."

"You see, Jia's family has only one room, and they eat, drink, and sleep together in one room. How can children grow up in such an environment?"

"Can you make a fuss?"

"Our compound is full of factory workers. It's not good to rest and affect work."

"I see that your house happens to have a vacant room. I also know that you and Jia's family are not getting along, so I let Sha Zhu go. Usually Sha Zhu can help you with cooking. Look at this. I will settle it today. I will let Jia Jia and Sha Zhu moved there?"

Yi Zhonghai said confidently, he had already taken care of Yang Xiaotao's face, with his prestige, he was so easy to talk, he felt that there must be no problem.

He didn't expect Yang Xiaotao to refuse at all, because in his opinion, it was just a matter of staying for a few days, and he would be able to eat when the child was older, so he would be relieved.

However, the expected thing was not loud, but looked at Yang Xiaotao and sneered.

"Master, if you haven't woken up, go back and continue to sleep. What are you daydreaming about?"

"Ask silly Zhu to cook for me? It's like I can't cook, and I can starve to death without him!"

"I still say the same thing, no matter how much my house is without my consent, I will call the police and arrest anyone who dares to go in!"

"Don't think that you are the only one who is a good person, I, Yang Xiaotao, don't accept that!"

After finishing speaking, Yang Xiaotao walked towards the front yard with Uncle Chen who was smiling.

Behind him, Yi Zhonghai was dumbfounded when he heard this, and shouted as soon as he saw that the two were about to leave.

"Yang Xiaotao, you, can't you think about the overall situation?"

"Our courtyard has been messed up these days, what's the matter with your efforts?"

"It's not that you want your house, just live for two days, what's the matter?"

Yi Zhonghai was a little anxious, and many people around heard the sound and rushed over.

If you understand it, hurry up and popularize the science, and a few people just muttered there.

"Ah!"

"The big picture? What's the matter?"

Yang Xiaotao stopped in his tracks, turned his head and pointed at Yi Zhonghai, "Yi Zhonghai, you're scheming me all the time, can't you stop?"

"The Jia family's own affairs, he will find a way to solve it himself."

"Why do you want me to give up the house?"

"I'm not the only one with extra houses in the compound."

"Not to mention the distance, your uncle's house also has two rooms, why don't you let silly Zhu go to your house?"

"It's really not possible, you just let Qin Huairu take the child. Aren't you a family? Living together, isn't it more convenient for you to take care of?"

When Yi Zhonghai heard this, his heart was racing, and when he wanted to speak, Yang Xiaotao pushed back.

"Damn."

"Wolf-hearted and white-eyed wolf, and you are a sanctimonious hypocrite. There is nothing good."

Yang Xiaotao didn't give him face, and left the courtyard after saying a word.

The spectators around immediately dispersed, leaving only Yi Zhonghai taking deep breaths and exhaling, his chest rising and falling, and then slowly walked back into the room.
