Siheyuan: Sister-in-law, don’t look back, I am my brother!

Chapter 132: There’s less bacon at home?
Chapter 132: Is there less bacon at home?

The next day was also New Year's Day.

Xu Yi and Lou Xiao'e were preparing to visit Xu's father and mother to wish them a happy new year.

It is worth mentioning that,
After learning that Lou Xiao'e was pregnant, Xu's father and mother suggested moving back to take care of their daughter-in-law.

But in the end,
However, Xu Yi declined the offer on the grounds that he did not want the two elders to work too hard.

after all,

Not to mention that the living habits of both parties are different, living together is not easy.

Moreover, Lou Xiao'e was only four months pregnant and had only just begun to show signs of pregnancy.

It's not to the point where I need to be served by others.

Besides,

Even if that time really comes,
Xu Yi also didn't intend to ask Xu's father and mother to come all the way to help.
Instead, I plan to ask the third or second aunt in the yard to help take care of it.
Plus there is the little cook He Yushui,

No need to worry at all.

"strangeness,"

"What's wrong, Ezi...?"

Looking at his wife's puzzled expression, Xu Yi couldn't help but ask.

"nothing,"

"I just feel like someone has come into our kitchen. Why do some pieces of bacon seem to be missing?"

"Um?"

He does not mean that.

After hearing what Lou Xiao'e said,
Xu Yi also hurried to the kitchen to take a look.

If it were something else, he might not take it seriously.

But you know,

This courtyard is home to the famous thief saint.
Especially since Banggeng just got out of juvenile detention recently, there's no guarantee that the other party might set their eyes on their good things.

But on the surface,
Xu Yi also looked indifferent and comforted her.

"Maybe you remembered it wrongly,"

"We still have to go to my parents' house for dinner today, we'll talk about it later."

"Um,"

The words came out,

This also quickly dispelled Lou Xiao'e's doubts.

As for Xu Yi, he was not idle. He was looking at the piles of bacon and other good things in the kitchen.

The corner of his mouth curled up,
He showed a playful look and started to get busy.

"Haha, the thief saint?"

After breakfast,

The couple also came to Xu's father and mother's home.

It is worth mentioning that,
After Xu Fugui applied to be transferred to the cinema, the yard he was assigned was just a quadrangle with two entrances.

There are a lot fewer residents in the courtyard than in Nanluoguxiang.

Even so,

Wherever there are people, there are bound to be disputes.

Especially during the New Year and other festivals, every family would gather their children together.
Some successful people,

Naturally, it is inevitable to give various generous gifts to one's parents.

This is also something that many older generations use to show off after dinner.

"Old Xu,"

"I heard that your two sons are working in a steel mill. I wonder how they are doing?"

"My good-for-nothing son has now been assigned to a meat processing factory,"

"During the Chinese New Year this year, the factory gave each of them 20 kilograms of pork!"

However, a neighbor lady also showed off her son's treatment at the meat processing factory.
The words came out,

This immediately attracted a lot of envious looks.

After hearing this, Xu Fugui naturally refused to be outdone.

"Aunt Wang,"

"My youngest son is the canteen director of the steel mill. Their New Year's treatment is much better than your son's."

"Haha, I don't believe it."

The middle-aged woman who spoke also had a look of disbelief on her face.

"My son and daughter-in-law are coming to celebrate the New Year and will bring me some gifts. Just wait and see!"

The words fell,

But then a voice was heard coming from the gate of the courtyard.

"Dad, Mom!"

It was Xu Yi who came pushing a bicycle with Lou Xiaoe on board.

"Second brother," "Xiao'e is here too, go inside and rest."

Seeing his son and daughter-in-law coming, Xu Fugui, who was arguing with his neighbor, stood up immediately.

quickly,

The residents in the courtyard also saw Xu Yi pushing the bicycle and Lou Xiao'e behind him.

have to say,

One of them was wearing a brand new Zhongshan suit, and the other was wearing a woolen coat.

The men are handsome, the women are beautiful,
Plus the bicycle which was also quite new,

Whether it was the pork, chicken and duck hanging on the handlebars, or the cigarettes, alcohol, sugar, tea and other things in the basket,

It also left many residents stunned!
especially,
Aunt Wang, who had previously boasted that her son was a worker in the meat processing factory.

At this moment, her face was flushed with embarrassment, and she wished she could find a hole in the ground to crawl into.

At the same time, I was a little curious.

Is it possible that the steel mill is so profitable?
Otherwise, how could Xu Yi, a canteen director, get so many good things?
after all,

If it was just some food, that would be fine.
But things like cigarettes, alcohol, and tea are not something that ordinary people can get.

For ordinary people,

It’s good enough if you can afford Qianmen cigarettes at one dollar a pack.

And what Xu Yi sent,
It turned out to be a whole bar of Huazi and several bottles of Moutai!

now,

Not to mention the residents in the courtyard, even Xu Fugui widened his eyes.

Subconsciously, I thought that my son got these things from the Lou family.

"Second brother,"

"Could these things be a gift from your father-in-law?"

"Dad, what are you talking about?"

Before Xu Yi could speak, Lou Xiao'e next to him explained with a smile.

"This is a New Year's gift from Xu Yi and his factory leaders."

of course,

Lou Xiao'e also knew that her husband was quite resourceful and often got some good things.

But now there are many people and eyes,

Naturally, she pushed the blame onto Li Xinmin.

The so-called color is red when it is close to vermilion, and black when it is close to ink.

Since marrying Xu Yi,
And after living in the yard for several months.

Lou Xiao'e is no longer as naive as she was when she first got married.

"So that's how it is,"

as predicted,

After hearing these words, not only Xu Fugui looked enlightened.

Even the other people in the yard nodded and became even more envious of Xu Yi.

now,

They all started praising it.

"Old Xu,"

"Your second son is obviously a capable person."

"Not only is the wife he married so beautiful, but she is also so capable that she is valued by the leaders."

"That's right,"

"He's already the canteen director of a steel mill at such a young age. I'm afraid he'll have to move up in the future."

"Please help and take care of my kid in the future."

Listening to everyone's praises, Xu Fugui's face beamed with joy.

As for Aunt Wang,
He had already sneaked back home and dared not show up in public again.

of course,

Thanks to this proud act, and the fact that Lou Xiao'e is now pregnant with Xu's child.

This meal was naturally quite relaxing.

In contrast,

Xu Damao was indeed feeling a little uncomfortable.

"Da Mao,"

"Look at how out of tune you are all day long. Why don't you get married and carry on the family line?"

"Now even your brothers and sisters have children,"

"Don't look back, your nephew is already a helper, and you haven't made any progress yet!"
