The Fiery Era of Siheyuan

Chapter 341: Admit your mistake and admit it

When Yi Zhonghai walked into Li Weiguo's country, Li Weiguo and Yushui were busy with today's dinner in the house.

Seeing Yi Zhonghai who suddenly came to the door, and the forced smile on his face, Li Weiguo's mind changed and he probably guessed the purpose of his visit.

"Master, is something wrong with you?"

Li Weiguo greeted him with a smile to come in and sit down, pretending that he didn't know what to do.

"Uh, there's something wrong, haha"

Yi Zhonghai smiled awkwardly, glanced at the rain beside him from the corner of his eyes, moved the corners of his mouth, and temporarily suppressed it.

Yushui is a smart girl, seeing the stiff smile on Yi Zhonghai's face, and the hesitant expression, he knew that there was something inconvenient for him to say in front of her.

So he didn't make things difficult for him. He smiled slightly, turned to Li Weiguo and said, "Brother Weiguo, it seems that there is no soy sauce at home. I'll go out and buy some."

Li Weiguo patted her little head fondly, and said with a smile, "Well, let's go."

As soon as the rain went away, Yi Zhonghai breathed a sigh of relief. After pondering for a few seconds, he said sarcastically: "Weiguo, I didn't think carefully about asking Sha Zhu to pick up Qin Huairu from the hospital today."

Before he could finish speaking, Li Weiguo interrupted him with a wave of his hand, then took out the cigarette in his pocket, gave him one casually, and said slowly: "My lord, it doesn't matter what the reason is, what happened in the past Let it go, as long as it doesn't happen again next time."

"Everyone of us has our own selfishness. It is understandable to plan the future for ourselves. Haven't we already said this old saying: People who don't kill themselves for themselves, and people who don't even think about themselves, deserve to die. Do you think that's the reason? ?”

Yi Zhonghai took the cigarette with both hands and stiffened for a moment, not knowing how to take it.

It was obvious that Li Weiguo was trying to criticize him for benefiting himself at the expense of others, but he could not argue, so he could only nodded awkwardly, accepting criticism honestly like a primary school student who made a mistake.

Seeing that the beating was almost done, Li Weiguo didn't want to make things difficult for him too much. After all, he was just an ordinary person with no hope and no support.

He struck a match casually, lit a cigarette, and took a deep breath. Li Weiguo continued: "Okay, sir, you don't have to think about what you have. As long as you live in peace, no one will be full." I can't live with you, life is only a few decades, just live your own life well, why waste all that effort, don't you think?"

After receiving Li Weiguo's accurate reply, Yi Zhonghai breathed a sigh of relief and nodded in agreement. As long as he didn't bother him, he could say anything.

He's not the kind of stupid guy like Sha Zhu, who knows what to do but still goes up for it. In the case of disparity in strength, there is no shame in admitting his mistakes and subduing himself.

After talking about the matter, the atmosphere at the scene became more relaxed, and it was no longer so depressing.

Yi Zhonghai thought about it for a while and felt that it was almost done, so he tentatively said: "Wei Guo, I also know that I did something wrong this time. I will seriously review and correct it in the future. You see, after all, this adoption matter It’s related to the rest of my life and your aunt’s life, can we?”

Li Weiguo frowned, clearly hearing his resistance to adoption, and wanted to struggle again by subduing himself and begging for mercy.

But things have come to this point, Li Weiguo doesn't care what worries he has, the rocket is already on fire, and you can stop it if you want to.

Now even if Li Weiguo is happy, Director Wang and Zhao Guobing will definitely not be happy.

Every time one more child is placed, one more achievement will be gained. Now that Director Wang and Zhao Guobing have finally caught a big wronged person, they will not let you go. You have to be willing if you don’t want to!

Li Weiguo said nothing and stared at him expressionlessly until Yi Zhonghai was staring at Yi Zhonghai like a light on his back and fidgeting, then he slowly spoke:

"Grandpa, since the matter of adoption has been decided, it can't be changed. Just do what you want. Nowadays, the placement of widowed and orphaned children is the focus of the street and the district government. Anyone who fools can beat them. Show no mercy!"

"Have you seen Zhao Guobing, the cadre of the street today? He is about to be promoted to a deputy department in his early twenties, and he is just waiting for his grades to get promoted. If you give him a moth right now, it will ruin his future. How do you think people will take care of you?"

"My father is the director of Dongzhimen Grain Office, and my father-in-law is the director of Jiaodaokou Street. If you are not reconciled, you can find a relationship to try and see if you can change anything."

Hearing this, Yi Zhonghai's face suddenly turned pale.

He is not a heartless fool like Shazhu, who has been fooling around for most of his life, and he understands how much social energy people with this background have.

It's hard to say, but it couldn't be easier to take care of him as an ordinary person. People don't need to do it themselves, and some people are willing to do it for them.

Thinking of this, Yi Zhonghai smiled embarrassingly, and didn't mention whether he could, and quickly changed his words: "That can't be done, that can't be done, hehe. I will ask for leave tomorrow to go and see with your aunt, and I will definitely support the work of our street. .”

Seeing him being so polite, Li Weiguo smiled and became cheerful: "Hey, sir, that's right. Adopting a child is a good thing both in public and private life. As long as the child is well cultivated, the future will be better." You and Auntie will definitely be safe, there are not so many white-eyed wolves in this world, you are just worrying blindly."

Yi Zhonghai smiled awkwardly, what else could he say? His arms couldn't twist his thighs, so it didn't matter what he said. He just hoped it was true as he said.

When the dust settled, Yi Zhonghai also confirmed Li Weiguo's attitude, chatted a few words, and left quickly.

But before leaving, he made a small request, that is, he hoped that Li Weiguo could take a leave tomorrow and go to the streets with the couple.

Probably because he was worried that Zhao Guobing, the street office, would trip him up again, and arrange some crooked things for him, so he had to get Li Weiguo to be at ease.

When Li Weiguo heard this, he didn't care. If he didn't go with him, the old man might not be able to sleep at night, so he simply agreed to him.

Middle courtyard, west wing, Jia's house.

At this time, the Jia family was sitting around the dining table eating dinner.

Dinner was very simple, a plate of stewed cabbage, a plate of pickle dumplings, the main food was sticks with batter, and one or two fried soybeans.

Today is the day when Qin Huairu came home from the hospital for confinement, so it was a rare luxury for Jia Zhang to fry a couple of soybeans for Qin Huairu and give her milk.

At the dining table, Mrs. Jia Zhang and Bang Gian were engrossed in eating. Xiao Dang was now three years old and could eat by himself. He held a spoon and played while eating, constantly pulling the stick to batter.

And Qin Huairu held the newly born little Sophora flower beside her and fed her milk spoon by spoon.

After they were almost fed, they placed the little Sophora japonica on the kang to rest, and then Qin Huairu picked up the bowls and chopsticks and went to the table to eat.

After getting to the table, Qin Huairu couldn't help but asked curiously when she thought of what happened at the conference just now: "Mom, at the conference just now, everyone was encouraging the first uncle to adopt a child. The first uncle was obviously unwilling. Why didn't you speak up and help him? Two sentences?"

Mrs. Jia Zhang couldn't help but rolled her eyes when she heard her question: "Say a few words for him? How can I help? Didn't you see the street cadre Zhao and the neighborhood committee director Wang sitting at the Eight Immortals Table today? Do you want to help others? The one they made today is obviously aimed at the uncle."

"If I don't go crazy and mess with other people's superiors' affairs, will Director Wang miss me to death when I turn around?"

After all, Jia Zhang shook her head, she had no deep taboo, she could still carry her own weight.

Moreover, Director Wang's title of "Iron Lady" wasn't something that was blown out, it was really something.

In the past, three shots were used to kill a spy. Later, blast furnaces were built in the streets to make steel. Every household had to donate a certain amount of scrap iron. Don't even talk about it, she still remembers it vividly.

Being the first bird in front of Director Wang is really no different from courting death.

Qin Huairu nodded in understanding, but after a moment's thought, a trace of sadness appeared on her face: "Mom, you have always said that our family will have to rely on the help of the first uncle in the future. Once this uncle has a child, I’m afraid you can’t take care of us anymore, right?”

In the past when her husband was still alive, their Jia family relied on the help of the uncle to live a more prosperous life. Now that the mainstay of the family is gone, the income has also plummeted. As a widow, Qin Huairu doesn't know if their family can survive.

"This..." Jia Zhang was dumbfounded.

Hearing what Qin Huairu said, she remembered the seriousness of the matter.

With her son in the past, Yi Zhonghai put all his hopes on his son, so he always took good care of their family, basically responding to every request.

Now that her son is gone, if Yi Zhonghai adopts another child, their Jia family will no longer be valuable, and it will be difficult for others to help them in the future.

Suddenly, Mrs. Jia Zhang felt that the food was no longer fragrant and she lost her appetite.

But what can we do?

To interfere with other people's adoption?

Even if you give her a hundred guts, she won't dare.

Qin Huairu saw that Mrs. Jia Zhang was silent, so she had no choice but to comfort her, "Oh, forget it, Mom, you have to rely on yourself after all. Since the uncle can't count on you, let's find a way by ourselves, and wait for me to take over. , life at home will get better."

Mrs. Jia Zhang snorted coldly and sneered: "You said it lightly. Dongxu has just left. You haven't realized the hardships of orphans and widowed mothers. As time goes by, you will know that a widow wants to support a family." How difficult it must be! Do you think it will be easy once you take over the job? How naive!"

Since her son established a family and married a daughter-in-law, she has been well supported by her son. She has almost forgotten the difficult years when she took care of the child when her husband died. Now she suddenly recalled that it was all because of her failure. She was willing to go through the suffering again, so she didn't agree with Qin Huairu's optimistic thoughts at all.

However, she had no other solution for the time being. She was silent for a moment, and finally she could only sigh: "Forget it, the boat will be straight when it reaches the bridge. Just take it one step at a time. It's useless to think too much. You just came back from the hospital, first. Let’s take good care of ourselves.”

"Yes, I see." Qin Huairu nodded in response.

After the discussion, the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law were speechless and continued to eat with their heads down.
