Siheyuan: It started with Yu Li's door-to-door work

They are all women, just because the men they marry are different, and their lives are one in the sky and the other in the earth.

Ran Qiuye was pregnant, so she was confessed by the man like an ancestor, and he ran around every day to cook and deliver meals for her, with different patterns every week.

What about Yu Li?

You have to work hard when you are pregnant with a child, not to mention a nutritionally balanced meal for pregnant women, it would be nice to be able to eat whole grains until you are full.

After the baby was born, she hadn't been confinement for a few days, not to mention the pig's trotter soup and crucian carp soup that the Yan family cooked for her. The baby's diapers were all washed by herself.

Because she gave birth to a daughter, her parents didn't have the confidence to make trouble with the Yan family.

Moreover, Yan Jiecheng has no skills and can't find a formal job, so he earns the money of a temporary worker.

Yan Bugui is even more, his son is married and lives at home, not to mention the ration money, but also the rent!

Moreover, she gave birth to a daughter in the past few years, and the Yan family was also very dissatisfied.

But Yu Li has nothing to do with it!

Being able to give birth to a girl means that her body is fine. The land is fine. If no crops can grow, the problem is the seeds.

If the seeds fail, what can Yu Li do?

After thinking about it, Yu Li gritted her teeth and stomped her feet, and finally found the door.

"Brother Yudong, I beg you, help my sister."

Yu Li pleaded.

"Sister, please...let me borrow a seed from you."

Chapter 85 Borrowed Seeds to Plant Crops

Hearing this, He Yudong froze for a moment.

Borrowing of seeds has happened in ancient and modern times, and it has even become a default custom in rural areas, which can be regarded as a bad habit for many years.

After all, in a clan society based on farming, fists represent power, security, strength and wealth.

Even in later generations, it is not that there is no such thing, but with the advancement of technology, it has become "artificial".

He Yudong gently lifted Yu Li's chin.

"Sister Yu Li, is this your own plan?"

Yu Li froze, her eyes rolling.

"Brother Yudong, you can help sister."

She softened her voice and attitude, "I also have a wish for a boy to come down. I promise not to disturb you in the future, okay?"

He Yudong smiled lightly.

"A boy who looks like me was born, sister Yu Li, do you think you can hide this?"

"Sister Yu Li, you messed around, but you will have your hair shaved and taken to the exhibition."

"Maybe...you will be stoned to death."

Yu Li was shaking all over, and shook his hand angrily.

"I know, you despise me, if you don't like it, you won't like it, what are you doing to scare me?"

He Yudong smiled faintly.

"My wife is still waiting for my meal. Sister Yu Li, I'm leaving first. I will seriously consider what you said."

Yu Li stood under the eaves in a daze, watching He Yudong lock the door leisurely with the thermos bucket in his hand, and leave unhurriedly, feeling uneasy.

What does He Yudong think?

He Yudong had no idea.

If he was not married and had children, and Yu Li sent it to his door like this, it would be fun to play with her, but now that he has a family and a child, Yu Li still has the idea of ​​borrowing seeds, so he has to be more cautious.

Save trouble when the time comes.

After all, the present day is what he cherishes most.

Ran Qiuye finished the bowl of porridge and smiled embarrassedly.

"Brother Dong, I'm bothering you again."

"Tsk, what are you talking about? You are not my wife? You are not carrying my child?" He Yudong pretended to be angry, "Don't be rude to me."

Ran Qiuye leaned into his arms with a blushing face.

"Brother Dong, look at this."

She took out a small bellyband, no bigger than a man's palm, obviously for babies.

The small apron is made of soft cotton cloth, and the stitches are all on the outside, which will never rub the delicate skin of the baby. On the outside of the apron, a few stitches are used to outline a bamboo.

"Is it for our children? It's so small."

He Yudong was a little surprised.

"I don't know how big children's things should be. Aunt Dou taught me, and she also embroidered this apron."

Aunt Dou lives behind the small courtyard of Ran's family, with three rooms in a row.

Her son and daughter-in-law were sent to the countryside, and she was alone, with a young grandson and a young granddaughter struggling to survive.

Although it is an urban household registration, there is a share of commercial grain, but grain has to be bought with money.Aunt Dou used to be an embroiderer, so she has a good handiwork, but how many people go out to make clothes these days?

Even if you do it, you'll have to do it yourself. If you can't do it yourself, you can go to a state-owned tailor shop to do it. In short, you won't go to her.

Aunt Dou can only do small mending jobs for bachelors, earning a few cents at a time, barely enough to make ends meet.

It was a hard life, being squeezed out all day long and not getting enough to eat. The two children were "big-headed dolls" whose bodies were like reed sticks.

She kept some good things from home in her hands, and had to send them to the ghost market one after another to exchange for food. That's how He Yudong knew her.

After inquiring again, hey, I live close to the small courtyard of Ran's family, and I can handle it with such a full-bodied background.

Simply, exchange seventy catties of coarse grains for a month, and invite Aunt Dou to come over and be with Ran Qiuye.

Substituting food for money would not be considered a bourgeois style, but it would be said to ask an experienced old man to help out and take care of the pregnant woman.

It wasn't that Ran Qiuye was coquettish, it was actually the husband and wife, neither of them had any female elders by their side, so when they were pregnant and had children, they were all blindsided.

For example, the most obvious thing is that Ran Qiuye said she was making children's clothes, but she was not sure about the size. All she had seen were children who had grown up. She really didn't know the size of the baby.

It's all done by Mrs. Dou, who taught me step by step, and from time to time, she even helped to make two things.

Aunt Dou is also very grateful.

The seventy catties of coarse grains cost five or six yuan in conversion.But if you give her money, she will definitely not dare to accept it, for fear of being reported.But she is very willing to pay for it with food.After all, even if it was money, her food stamps were not enough.

Now, with the food received and the monthly commodity food, at least she and the children can eat half full.

This time, it is a mutual benefit for both parties. .

At least, this Aunt Dou reassured He Yudong that he was not short of the seventy catties of coarse grains.

Aunt Dou also knew that she could only rely on He Yudong to breathe a sigh of relief and live like a human being.Therefore, that work is called a diligent and dedicated person.

No matter what, it will take ten months to conceive a child. After the birth, someone will take care of Ran Qiuye Yuezi, right?He Yudong is a big man, and he still has a job. It must be inconvenient to do this, so Aunt Dou must come.

And washing diapers...

Thinking that Ran Qiuye had two of them this time, there must be a lot of diapers to be changed.

This job must be hard work for Mrs. Dou.

It was He Yudong's luck to find such a person.

If the three aunts in the courtyard were changed... the three families each have their own needs, haha, it's not enough to cause trouble.

Aunt Dou is also happy.

After all, the child has to stay in the mother's womb for at least seven months, plus confinement, it will be a year younger anyway.This year, her family's rations don't have to worry about.

As for after...

Hey, it doesn't look like He Yudong is short of money. If she does a good job, maybe she will stay?Why can't I take his children to kindergarten?

By then, maybe his family will have a second child!

He Yudong and his wife, and Mrs. Dou's family, are mutually beneficial, and both parties are very satisfied.

Ran Qiuye couldn't smell the smell of oily smoke, and would throw up when he smelled it, while He Yudong had to go to work, so it was unrealistic to eat in a state-run restaurant all the time.

So, except that He Yudong cooks something fresh for this meal at night, during the day Ran Qiuye eats a boiled egg or egg custard as a meat dish, accompanied by steamed buns with Erhe noodles, boiled some vegetables in plain water, and cold salad with two drops of sesame oil.

It's simple, but it's also a level that ordinary people can't eat.

That's one egg a day!

Even the steamed buns of Erhe noodles are made of fine grains, not to mention the sesame oil and soy sauce in the cold salad.

Ran Qiuye never dreamed that in such an environment, she could still live such a life.

Moreover, He Yudong specially invited someone to accompany her.

This day is good, let her think she is dreaming.

The other woman, that was really daydreaming.

It was Yu Li.

They were all from the same factory. He Yudong ran around every day just to cook a meal for Ran Qiuye and hired someone to take care of her. The news spread quickly.

Everyone in the compound knows about it.

The three aunts, overtly and secretly, have all signaled to He Yudong to let him fire Aunt Dou and hire him to work, and make sure to take good care of her.

He Yudong just smiled and said nothing.

The elder Yi Zhonghai's family is expecting someone to take care of them, if the elder mother is invited to go, I'm afraid it will brainwash Ran Qiuye and make her turn to them.It would be a bit troublesome to blow pillow wind to Ran Qiuye at that time.

The second uncle, Liu Haizhong, was a great talent, and secretly asked He Yudong to speak well of him before the leadership and wanted to be promoted. Asking the second aunt to take care of Ran Qiuye was equivalent to putting a hostage in their family's hands.

As for the third master... Heh, the third mother is probably going to smuggle all the rice, flour, grain and oil over there to her home!

Yu Li could also guess what He Yudong was thinking.
