The Courtyard House: He Yuzhu, Who Defied Fate

"Master, don't worry, I'm confident I can get through this!"

You should know that Jia Dongxu has been studying with Yi Zhonghai for five years, so being a Level 2 worker is definitely not a problem.

When it came time to determine his skill level, to be on the safe side, Jia Dongxu only passed the first-level worker exam and did not pass the second-level worker exam.

After more than a year of honing his skills, Jia Dongxu had no problem reaching the Level 2 technical skill level.

It's important to know that Jia Dongxu's skills certainly go beyond this, but he did it so that his family could have enough to eat.

He was always hungry, and when he wasn't full, he had no energy, so his hands weren't very steady at work. If Jia Dongxu's hands were a little steadyer, he would have no problem becoming a level three worker.

Unfortunately, Jia Dongxu knew this situation himself, and in order not to worry his mother and wife, he went to work on an empty stomach every day.

Yi Zhonghai thought Jia Dongxu's qualifications were mediocre.

You should know that Jia Dongxu is not stupid; he's just honest and kind-hearted.

Jia Dongxu comforted Yi Zhonghai and then went back. Seeing Jia Dongxu leave, Yi Zhonghai was very satisfied with him.

Then I thought about how to make Jia Dongxu grateful...

He Yuzhu ignored the courtyard house matters and went straight to Mao'er Hutong. After arriving, he played with Qingqing for a while. Song Ziyu heard the noise and came out. Seeing He Yuzhu, Song Ziyu asked:

"Zhu Zi, you're back. Why don't you come inside?"

He Yuzhu said:

"I won't go in. I'm leaving now. Yi Zhonghai probably won't go looking for my dad anymore. Talk to him when he gets back..."

I have things to do at home, as you know. I'm worried about Xue Ru taking care of the child at home by herself.

Since Xiaodi is pregnant too, she won't be staying here!

Song Ziyu nodded:

"Okay, if anything comes up, just let me over. I don't have anything going on at home anyway!"

He Yuzhu nodded:

"Okay, Aunt Song, I won't stand on ceremony with you. If you're free during the day, come over and help me take care of Xue Ru."

"I'm too busy with work to get away anytime soon!"

Song Ziyu nodded:

"Okay, don't worry, I'll take good care of them!"

He Yuzhu nodded:

"Okay, then I'll leave first!"

After saying that, He Yuzhu rode his bicycle back home.

Back home, Chen Xueru, holding the child, asked He Yuzhu:

"Zhu Zi, what's going on at home?"

He Yuzhu said helplessly:

"What else could it be? Yi Zhonghai wanted my family's old house, but I didn't want to sell it, so he started fighting with me."

It's alright, he's just an old man, he can't do much to me. If my house still can't be rented out after a month...

I'll show him what the power of authority is!

Chen Xueru didn't have a good impression of the people in the courtyard house. Hearing He Yuzhu's words, she then said:

"What would an old, childless family need so many houses for?"

He Yuzhu said:

"Even a fool would know it's for the Jia family. He doesn't lack houses. By buying a house, he can do the Jia family a favor and have Jia Dongxu take care of him when he gets old!"

Chen Xueru, holding the child, said:

"Yi Zhonghai is really going to great lengths to secure his retirement. But why doesn't he adopt a child?"

There are so many orphans now!

He Yuzhu said:

"Hmph, isn't it just that they dislike the child because it's not their own and they don't feel close to the child after raising it?"

If they don't take care of themselves in their old age, then all the time they've raised their children will have been for nothing. They don't want to put in the effort, yet they want to take advantage—there's no such thing as a free lunch!

Chen Xueru asked:

"Husband, with your abilities, wouldn't it be easy for you to take care of him in his old age? Why..."

He Yuzhu said:

"Actually, I've thought about this too. If he treats me well and is truly sincere, then taking care of him in his old age is not out of the question."

2.5

After all, he has a job himself, at a fairly high level, and with a good income.

When I can no longer work, I'll still have a pension; it'll just mean adding an extra bowl and chopsticks when I eat.

But he didn't want to do that; he didn't want to exchange sincerity for sincerity; he wanted to completely control someone.

He says whatever he wants, but he's got the makings of a father even though he's not destined to be one!

Upon hearing He Yuzhu's words, Chen Xueru burst into laughter:

"Your summary is spot on. Indeed, alright, let's not talk about the courtyard house anymore."

"By the way, shouldn't we buy some furniture?"

He Yuzhu looked at Chen Xueru, then said indulgently:

"Okay, tell me what furniture you want, and I'll get it for you!"

Chen Xueru said:

"I don't know either, something's missing!"

Looking at Chen Xueru, He Yuzhu said:

"I know what I'm missing, I'll bring it back to you later!"

Chen Xueru asked, confused:

"How is that possible? I don't even know what I'm missing, how did you know?"

He Yuzhu said mysteriously:

"Hehe, you'll know when the time comes!"

Hearing He Yuzhu's words, Chen Xueru nodded:

"Okay, approximately how long?"

He Yuzhu said:

"It should be about the same after I start working!"

Chen Xueru nodded expectantly.

The next day, He Yuzhu went to work, but instead of continuing with his electronic engineering, he started making his own product.

This time, He Yuzhu didn't even draw any blueprints, because it was made for his two children...

Chapter 144: In the blink of an eye, it was 1958.

If someone from the future were to see this, they would easily recognize it as a baby stroller.

After setting up the stroller, He Yuzhu set up two cribs.

It should be noted that He Yuzhu's carpentry skills are also at level 8.

Getting a crib is very simple.

He Yuzhu finished all of this in two days.

Then she took him home. After they got home, Chen Xueru saw He Yuzhu return and asked:

"what is this?"

He Yuzhu said:

"This is a stroller, and this is a crib, so you don't have to carry it around all the time. When you go out to sunbathe, you can use this."

After saying that, he took out the stroller and taught Chen Xueru how to use it. Chen Xueru looked at He Yuzhu like this and felt very happy. She didn't expect that He Yuzhu would make things easier for her.

"They actually managed to get this car!" Chen Xueru said, moved.

"My husband, you are so good to me!"

He Yuzhu looked at Chen Xueru and then said:

"You're my wife, if I don't treat you well, who will I treat well?"

After saying that, she put the child in the stroller and asked He Yuzhu:

"Zhu Zi, what's our baby's name?"
