I am Fugui

Chapter 146
"Xu Youfu, Xu Youfu"

Laishun repeated it twice, happily said: "This name is good, this name is good."

Xu Fugui asked him, "What's so good about this name?"

"I don't know, anyway, it's easy to say, besides, I'm blessed, how wonderful."

Xu Fugui gave him a funny look, and lifted You Qinggao up, "You will have a younger brother in the future."

Youqing looked curiously at the baby in Aunt Sun's arms, "Is this my brother? It's similar to my name. I want to hug my brother."

"My brother is too young, I will hug him later."

Dinner was ready, and since Jiazhen was busy giving birth to Cuiping, Xu Fugui cooked the dinner himself.

Sun Daotang and Chen Yunsheng's family were also invited here, as a reward for Aunt Sun and Zhu Fang's delivery.

Cut bacon is naturally indispensable, and Xu Fugui also cooked a pot of preserved egg porridge, and asked Laishun to deliver it to Liu Cuiping who was lying on the bed.

After giving birth, Liu Cuiping didn't seem to be as weak as she imagined. She even wanted to get up and eat together, but it was Jiazhen who persuaded her, saying that if she didn't sit well during the confinement period, she would easily fall into the root cause of the disease in the future.

Liu Cuiping didn't believe this before, but rural girls are not so pretentious. Farming with a big belly, and continuing to work after giving birth are common things.

But she was convinced by Jiazhen's words, so she obediently lay down on the bed.

Seeing Laishun bring the preserved egg porridge to the bed, with several pieces of bacon floating on the surface of the porridge, she felt uncomfortable, "There is no such thing as a man serving a woman, don't let Aunt Sun and Fifth Sister Zhu see the joke, or I'd better get up , I'm really fine."

Laishun shook his head, "That's not okay, Sister Jiazhen told me, you should stay in confinement and don't worry about your housework."

He coaxed Liu Cuiping with all his talk, and took the porridge to feed her, but Liu Cuiping thought it was too pretentious, so he took the porridge and drank it himself.

Laishun didn't speak, just sat by the bed and looked at her cheerfully, "Cuiping, you gave birth to a fat boy, weighing more than seven catties."

Liu Cuiping also had some pride in her eyes, "Hmph, I know it's a boy, but I don't have a name, so ask Sister Jiazhen to pick one for us."

"I took it, it was sister Jiazhen who took it, her name is Xu Youfu."

"This name is really nice. When people hear it, they will know that Youfu and Youqing are two brothers."

"Yes, I think it sounds good too."

"Okay, don't stay in the house, go to dinner with them."

Laishun lit the tung oil lamp in the house and returned to the dining table, just in time to hear Xu Fugui talking about going to the county seat today.

"Fugui, the county magistrate really praised us and said he wanted us to be a model village?" Chen Yunsheng said happily. Although he didn't understand, he still had the feeling of not being aware of it.

Xu Fugui took a piece of bacon and put it in his mouth, "Of course, so we have to work hard and get more benefits for our village. The county magistrate said that if there is any good thing in the future, our village will be given priority."

Sun Daotang blushed, "What's the good thing?"

Xu Fugui explained: "If there is electricity and telephone, there is a big iron speaker, and the road is repaired, we will take care of these things first."

"Electricity? Doesn't every household have electric lights in the future?"

Xu Fugui sneered, "It's not necessarily true. The electric lights and telephones in Murakami must be paid for by the county, but the electric lights in individual homes may have to be paid extra."

Even so, the two were still not disappointed, their eyes were full of joy, "Fugui, thanks to you."

Xu Fugui waved his hand, signaling them to eat meat, happy tonight, not only cooked a piece of bacon, but also cut a large plate of stewed orchids, everyone ate to their satisfaction.

Jiazhen suddenly asked: "By the way, Fugui, is Fengxia's study done?"

In the afternoon, Liu Cuiping was busy with giving birth, so she forgot to ask about it.

Xu Fugui nodded and explained the matter.

"School will start in August. Go through the formalities in advance. Sister Yuzhi said that you will also become a primary school teacher and develop slowly in the future."

Jiazhen looked at him in surprise, "Really? I can still go to the county to be a teacher?"

"Of course it's true. I can't possibly use this to scare you."

"Then do you want to be assessed or something? Oh, I don't know what to test. Besides, I have never been a teacher. What if I don't do well, it's embarrassing for you."

"Relax, you don't need to be assessed. You can teach at home and at school. When the time comes, I will walk around with the principal more, and no one will embarrass you."

Feng Xia interjected: "Mother, will you teach me when I go to the city?"

The smile on Jiazhen's face couldn't hold back at all, "Maybe, mother will accompany Fengxia to and from school in the future."

"Mother, I want to go to school too." You Qingweng said in a soft voice.

Jiazhen laughed loudly, "When you grow up a bit, Mother will send you to school."

Zhu Fang looked at her enviously, "Jiazhen has a job in the city, life will be easier in the future."

Xu's mother was also very happy, "It's a pity, the county seat is not close, and I walk back and forth every day, I don't know if my body can bear it."

Father Xu coughed and said with a smile, "Jiazhen, why don't you take Fengxia to live with your father in the future, so it's convenient for you to study."

Mother Xu patted his hand, opened her mouth, and said nothing.

Feng Xia was the first to disagree, "Grandpa, I don't live in Grandpa's house, I want to live with Dad."

Mother Xu stroked Fengxia's hair, "My Fengxia is still good."

Jiazhen also nodded, "There is no such thing as living in her mother's house all the time, besides, you can't leave Fugui and Youqing at home, right?"

Xu Fugui frowned, this is a problem, come every day
Back twenty or thirty miles away, he couldn't bear to let Jiazhen and Fengxia be so tired.

"When school starts, I'll take Jiazhen and Fengxia there on horseback," Xu Fugui said.

At present, there is only this way. In the future, let's take it one step at a time.

Anyway, according to Du Yuzhi's intentions, his village party secretary seems to be just a transitional one, and will be arranged elsewhere later.

If it is arranged to work in the county, then find a way to build a house in the county, and the whole family will move to the city.

Everyone nodded when they heard the words, Fengxia looked very happy, "Yes, ride a horse, ride a horse."

Seeing Fengxia so happy, Xu Fugui couldn't help laughing, recalling the things in his previous life, the tip of his nose couldn't help but feel a little sour.

In the previous life, after he was arrested as a young man, he returned to the village at about this time. When she came back, Feng Xia had already become a deaf-mute, which made him so distressed that he couldn't stop crying.

Now as long as he hears Fengxia's crisp and clear voice, he will be extremely moved, and all his fatigue will dissipate.

Thank God for giving him this chance of rebirth so that he can change the tragic experience of his family.

The night enveloped the entire village, the stars were dotted, and the lights of two tung oil lamps illuminated the dining table.

Xu Fugui looked at the dilapidated thatched cottage, it was time to find a chance to move back to their Xu family's old house.
