The Courtyard House: He Yuzhu, Who Defied Fate

"Guangfu, I've found a job. You should study hard, and your second brother will support you through your schooling!"

Liu Guangfu also looked at Liu Guangtian with excitement:

"Really, Second Brother?"

Liu Guangtian nodded quietly:

"Of course, but keep your voice down. If Dad finds out, he'll beat you again!"

Liu Guangfu thought of Liu Haizhong, his eyes revealing hatred and fear.

……

Yi Zhonghai's home.

Yi Zhonghai ate steamed buns with pickled vegetables, then distributed the pig's head meat to several children and an older woman;

"Eat well and grow up healthy. I won't lack oil at the factory!"

The three children, Yi Xiaotian, were deeply moved when they saw Yi Zhonghai. All three children had been adopted from the orphanage.

Naturally, he is very sensible and knows the current situation in the country, where meat purchases are rationed.

The three were very grateful. Yi Xiaotian said:

"Thank you, Dad. You eat too!"

The other two children, Yi Xiaochuan and Yi Xiaobu, put the meat from their bowls into Yi Zhonghai's bowl.

Yi Xiaochuan:

"Dad, you're working hard, we don't have to work, so you should eat more!"

Yi Xiaobu:

"That's right, Dad. We can just have some pickled vegetables. You should eat more meat. We can't let you overwork yourself!"

Yi Zhonghai was deeply moved, and looking at the children, he felt very gratified.

"It's okay, Dad's okay. You guys eat, and then study hard after you finish eating!"

The three nodded to themselves, indicating that they would study hard.

Looking at her three sensible children, the woman felt very gratified.

You have to understand that she chose these three children herself. Thinking about the Jia family's children, the old lady felt very satisfied.

The deaf old lady looked at the three children with great satisfaction.

Yi Zhonghai placed the meat from the plate into the old lady's bowl:

"Grandma, you eat too. I have enough money, but I don't have enough meat coupons. Oh, Old Yan is in jail now."

Otherwise, we could buy some fish from him to nourish everyone!

The deaf old woman sighed and said:

"Sigh, Yan Bugui is also someone who can't see through things, but it's a bit surprising that Zhu Zi didn't make a move this time!"

Yi Zhonghai asked curiously:

"Impossible. If he didn't intervene, how could he be sentenced to six months?"

The deaf old lady said:

"He drives a car, even his sister drives a car, which shows that Zhu Zi is a real dragon now."

If Zhu Zi gets involved, then it definitely won't be a matter of six months.

"It's not worth Pillar's intervention unless it's been at least three years!"

Hearing the deaf old woman's words, Yi Zhonghai asked in bewilderment:

"But why is Zhu Zi targeting me?"

The deaf old woman said to Yi Zhonghai:

"How am I targeting you? If I were really targeting you, would you still be acting like this?"

If it were specifically for you, would Liu Guangqi offer you advice when he gets married?

We were the ones who schemed against him first. If we hadn't, given Zhu Zi's personality, we would definitely have gotten along very well.

Upon hearing the deaf old lady's words, Yi Zhonghai felt extremely regretful. He Yuzhu's monthly salary of 488 yuan had become a source of inner turmoil for Yi Zhonghai.

With such a high salary, how comfortable would it be to retire comfortably?

Unfortunately, He Yuzhu and I are not on the same path at all now.

Yi Zhonghai sighed and said:

"Yes, but the country is getting better and better now, and I believe my three children will be no worse than He Yuzhu!"

The deaf old lady looked at Yi Zhonghai without saying a word; she was more formidable than He Yuzhu.

What do you think?

In all these years, I have never met anyone more capable than He Yuzhu.

However, the deaf old lady still said to Yi Zhonghai:

"If you let the children study hard, I believe they won't do too badly!"

An older woman looked at the three children and then said contentedly:

"Did you hear what the old lady said? You three should study hard and try to get into university!"

Chapter 243: The Blueprints Are Fine

All three children nodded, determined to study hard. In fact, all three little ones were good at their studies.

Yi Zhonghai and the older woman were both very satisfied.

Jia family

Madam Jia looked at Qin Huairu cautiously. Qin Huairu looked at Xiao Dang and said to Xiao Dang:

"Xiao Dang, if you don't want to go to the countryside, you'd better study hard, understand?"

Little Dang was still young, and nodded as if he understood but not quite.

Huaihua is still young and doesn't understand much about these things.

Jia Zhangshi asked:

"Can we eat now?"

Qin Huairu thought to herself, "She's really despicable. She treated me so well before, but I don't appreciate it. She's always causing trouble."

Now that things are like this, Jia Zhangshi has become more obedient and doesn't dare to cause any trouble anymore.

Qin Huairu said domineeringly:

"Have a meal!"

Now that the problem is gone, Qin Huairu feels much better; there aren't as many upsetting things happening anymore.

Both of her daughters were well-behaved, and her mother-in-law had become more obedient. Qin Huairu often thought about this.

Would it be better to give up my own son? But then I thought of how good Jia Dongxu had been to me.

This son is Jia Dongxu's only son, so Qin Huairu would give up on the idea.

……

He Yuzhu looked at the fact that the New Year was just around the corner, but the whole country was bursting with unprecedented vitality and enthusiasm.

Yang Xiaodi and He Yu at home were just as excited as the others, but He Yuzhu provided them with extra nutrition at home.

There were no problems.

Soon it was 1963, and He Yuzhu and everyone else happily celebrated the New Year.

Then they all went to work.

After He Yuzhu started working, he began manufacturing various engineering machines and blueprints for various tunnel-digging machines.

On his fifth day at work, He Yuzhu produced four mechanical blueprints.

Just as He Yuzhu was about to continue working on the blueprints, Gu Zhiqi arrived. He Yuzhu hadn't seen Gu Zhiqi since he started working.

Gu Zhiqi said to He Yuzhu:

"Zhu Zi, Happy New Year!"

Hearing Gu Zhi Qiu's words, He Yu Zhu was taken aback, and then said:

"Happy New Year, no, Lao Gu, what time is it, and you're only just coming to work!"

Gu Zhi Qiu rolled her eyes and then said:

"It's all your fault. Did you read the newspapers last year? The whole country was working like it was on steroids."

The blueprints you provided have mostly been used to build factories, but there's no one left to work on them. I've gone off to handle that.

I spent the Spring Festival away from home, running around all day. I just got back yesterday, and I'm here today.
