The Red Era: The Crowd in the Siheyuan

Chapter 485

"Uncle, uncle, did you bring us any delicious food?"

Seeing the three siblings looking expectant, He Jianguo picked up his 3-year-old son He Zhenxing and handed the lunch box to He Qing.

"I made sausages for Director Li and his team this afternoon, and I brought some back.
Take it back to Grandpa quickly."

Although the He family had lived a very good life in recent years because of her father, He Qing still couldn't help but brighten up when she heard about eating sausages in the evening.
He opened the lunch box and smelled it, then gave a piece to each of his two younger brothers.
Just as I was about to take my lunch box home, I turned around and saw He Yuzhu coming from the alley entrance, and then I ran over cheering.

"Dad, Dad, you're finally back. Is it fun in the mountains?"

He Yuzhu pinched the face of his precious daughter who was almost hanging on him, and shook his head with a smile.
"Hurry up and get down here. You don't look like a girl. If your mother sees you, you will definitely have to stand in the corner tonight and you won't even be able to eat sausages.

What's so fun about the mountains? There are mosquitoes everywhere. It's not like you haven't been there before."

When she heard her father mention her mother, He Qing, who had just been very happy, immediately stood up straight with a gloomy face and complained to He Yuzhu,

"Dad, I don't know what to say to you.

A militia captain and deputy director of the committee is actually afraid of his wife. If the news gets out, he is not afraid of being laughed at.
If I were you, I would definitely not spoil my mother like this and not let her beat us so often."

Hearing his daughter's complaints, He Yuzhu couldn't help but smile, thinking to himself, if I don't give in to Lou Xiao'e, what if you grow up crooked?
What if they fight against their own father like the three brothers and sisters of the Yan family, what will they do?
The palms and backs of my hands are all flesh.

We can't just kill you like we did to outsiders, so why not just give you no chance?

Then he said with a smile,

"Oh, really? Then I'll tell your mom about it when we get home. Tell her what you think."

Hearing this, He Qing was stunned and begged for mercy.

"No, you are really my father, it's okay if I am wrong, you can't be so deceiving."

Seeing his sister begging for mercy, He Xiao beside him laughed heartlessly.
"Sister, why are you so forgetful? My second brother used to be beaten by mom every day and he jumped up and down and complained to dad. Do you think dad ever paid any attention to him?

You are so good, you just keep moving forward."

He Xiao was laughing at his sister, and then he saw his sister's hand reaching for his ear. He quickly changed his words while running around He Yuzhu.

"Dad, don't argue with my sister. She knows she's wrong.
Let's go back quickly. Grandpa Yan bought a TV and is enjoying it at home now."

Seeing the two children fighting, He Yuzhu didn't pay much attention, but just watched with a smile.

"Okay, then I won't tell your mother. Let's go to your Grandpa Yan's house and see what his TV looks like.

By the way, where is your second brother? Is he watching TV at your grandfather Yan's house?"

At this time, He Jianguo came over with his son in his arms and greeted He Yuzhu. Then, he walked into the courtyard while listening to He Qing.
"Dad, you are so bold. Who is Grandpa Yan? How could my brother watch TV in his house?

He went to Shichahai Sports School to look for Uncle Sun and Uncle Ye."

Hearing this, He Yuzhu didn't take it seriously. Since Sun Tie and Ye Dapeng were watching, there would definitely be no problem.

As soon as the group walked into the gate, they saw the 17-year-old, graceful Xiaodang about to go out.
"Xiao Dang, we need to go out."

"Uncle He is back. I am desperate to go to the bathroom." "Okay, go ahead!"

After saying hello, He Yuzhu watched Xiao Dang hurriedly run out without saying much, but He Jianguo brought up the topic of Bang Genger.
"Brother, you just came back and you don't know yet,

Banggeng'er just came back from the countryside and has no job. The street office hasn't assigned him a job. Aunt Zhang asked him to go to the steel rolling mill to work for Sister Dongxu, and she wants you to go and say hello to Director Li.

By the way, brother, Yuejin just came back from the countryside. It’s not a good idea for him to hang around like this all day. Which unit are you going to arrange for him to work in?

Or maybe he could join the army like He Ying."

Since no one was there to back up the Jia family, Yi Zhonghai also retired.

It is impossible for a strong laborer like Banggeng to sweep the streets like in TV dramas.

Qin Huairu has been working for more than 10 years and is still just a low-level worker. Now she has to give up her job and let her son go to the steel mill to learn skills.

Anyway, the salary won't change.

As for He Yuejin, it is already 1976, and he will take the college entrance examination in two years. Naturally, he needs to review and make up for the academic work he has neglected in these years.

But this cannot be said, because the time has not come yet.

"Let's talk about Bang Geng'er when Sister Dong Xu comes over. As for Yue Jin, there's no rush.
You know the current situation. So many young people who have returned from the countryside are unemployed. There are so many people in our family earning money, and we don't need his share.

As for joining the army, you have to ask him himself. If he doesn't want to, I won't force him."

Hearing this, He Jianguo couldn't help but shook his head.
"Then I think it's better to forget it. When he was a kid, he was tired of you taking him to training every day.
Besides, He Ying has been a soldier for four years and has only been back a few times. My sister-in-law may not be willing to send Yue Jin back."

As soon as Lou Xiao'e was mentioned, she came out from the east wing.

"Jianguo, what do you mean I may not be willing to send Yue to the army? Am I such an ignorant mother?
I think you should ask your dad to see if he is happy about it."

He Daqing is 65 years old this year. Although he is still very strong, he is old after all. Even though there are four children in the family, he misses his eldest grandson very much.

He Jianguo also knew that his sister-in-law had heard what he had just said, and he felt very embarrassed.
"Hey, sister-in-law, that's not what I meant. I just don't dare to ask the old man for fear of getting beaten."

"Haha, you guy, you think your sister-in-law is easy to talk to, right?"

After teasing He Jianguo, Lou Xiaoe looked at her youngest son He Xiao.

"Go, go to Shichahai Sports School to see why your second brother hasn't come back yet. It's almost time for dinner, and he hasn't even come home yet."

After receiving his mother's instructions, He Xiao did not dare to delay at all and immediately ran out of the courtyard.

He Qing remembered that she had just complained to her father about her mother, and fearing that her father would not keep his word, she also ran out.

"Mom, I'm going with He Xiao."

No one knows a daughter better than her father. Seeing his daughter hurriedly following her brother out of the house, He Yuzhu knew what she was thinking. He couldn't help but smiled and shook his head.

As the courtyard quieted down, a clear conversation could be heard from the TV of the Yan family next door.
Then He Yuzhu handed the bicycle to Lou Xiaoe.
"Please help me push it back. I'm going to Uncle Yan's house to see if this stingy old man actually bought a TV."
