Siheyuan: Start a career change, lucky sign-in system

Chapter 39 Yi Zhonghai's Hypocrisy

"Come on, both of you sit in the front, one of you holds me, and the other one holds the front of the car."

On a bicycle, three adults and one child rode unsteadily towards the courtyard. Along the way, some people who were fleeing famine looked at the two sisters with envy, thinking that they had really met a noble person.

Many people who come to Sijiucheng basically go to the street office, where there may be arrangements. Yes, it’s just a possibility. A large number of them are still sent back to their original addresses or immigrated to other villages.

On the way home, Wang Xiaohu went to the kitchen and took out two steamed buns made of two pieces of flour.

"If you two want to eat something to fill your stomach, there will be more food later. There is no shortage of food in our courtyard." Seeing that the two little girls looked very scared, Wang Xiaohu tried his best to comfort them.

"Thank you, uncle. We are not hungry anymore." Jin Xiaohe swallowed her saliva as she looked at the steamed buns made of two-grain flour. However, when she thought about the candy she had just eaten, she felt like she had committed a crime. Such delicious food was not something a country girl like her was qualified to eat.

Her sister Jin Xiaomiao really wanted it, but was held back by Jin Xiaohe.

"Who are these two children, Xiaohu?" Zhang Hailian put down the work in her hands, walked out and asked.

"I picked it up on the roadside. Where are you two from?" Wang Xiaohu didn't force him, as there would be other food later anyway.

"We are from Maixiang Village." Jin Xiaohe replied.

"Maixiang Village?" Zhang Hailian was stunned for a moment, then asked worriedly, "Is the wheat bad again today?"

Winter wheat is planted in the northern region and is harvested around May or June, so it has been two months since the harvest.

"The food we were allocated was only enough to last for two months, so my sister and I...had to come out to make a living." Jin Xiaohe started crying when she said this.

Girls...were abandoned first.

"Is the situation in the countryside so serious now?" As the uncle in the front yard, Yan Bugui was the first to know who came into the yard. When he came over, he happened to hear Jin Xiaohe's words.

"It's serious, but I didn't expect it to be so serious. The last time we went back to Xiayuan Village, your grandparents said the harvest was pretty good. Maixiang Village is not far from Xiayuan Village..." Zhang Hailian didn't speak.

Wang Xiaohu also guessed that this was a lie told by his grandparents because they didn't want to worry Wang Dalu and his wife.

If this is the calculation, Xiayuan Village should be out of food by now.

"Uncle, didn't you say you were going to the countryside tomorrow? Why don't we go there together?" Wang Jiujin also liked Tainai, and there would always be delicious food every time he went there.

"Ah? Oh, I do have this idea." Wang Xiaohu was stunned for a moment, and seeing some expectation in Zhang Hailian's eyes, he immediately changed his words.

"There is no shortage of food at home now, so we must take some food to go and see them. Jiujin, don't go. It's such a long journey, do you want to tire your uncle to death?" Zhang Lanxi also agreed. Apart from this kind of interpersonal relationship, the silver bracelet in her box was given to her by her grandmother.

The person Wang Jiujin was most afraid of at home was his sister-in-law. He didn't say a word, but just pouted and turned to the corner to face the wall. Wang San quickly went forward to comfort him.

"Then I'll ride my bike there early tomorrow morning and make the round trip on the same day." Wang Xiaohu calculated the distance and with his fast legs, he could reach Xiayuan Village in three hours at most.

"Then I'll prepare something later, but I don't know if your father agrees."

"Of course I agree, and I'll prepare more and send some to your parents. It's just a matter of time." Wang Dalu and Wang Xiaolong just came back.

"Dad, this is not going to be smooth. It will take more than an hour to ride." After Wang Xiaohu said this, he thought of his mother who was still here, and immediately changed his tone and said, "But I can still go there. It's just a matter of convenience."

"No need. Your grandmother's family doesn't rely entirely on farming for a living. Have you forgotten that they live off the land? The impact there is actually the smallest." Zhang Hailian refused.

Zhang Lanxi also laughed and said, “My brother and his friends used to not come back for dinner all day, so they ate their fill in the mountains.”

Zhang Hailian and Zhang Lanxi's parents' homes are both in Huaguoshan Village. This sister-in-law was chosen by my mother herself, so the family has been relatively harmonious for many years.

"Let's not talk about this for now. What are you going to do with these two children?" Wang Xiaolong's focus was different. His eyes were on the two timid little girls. He also had a daughter, so he felt very distressed.

"No matter how hard life is, we cannot let children suffer. How cruel!" Yan Bugui goes the same way. Although he is stingy, he is fair.

In the Yan family, equality is the most important thing. Yan Jiedi is considered to be well raised. Compared with the girls in other courtyards, she is still pretty good.

"Old Yan, the street office should have some rules and regulations for this matter, right?" Wang Dalu asked.

"Basically, they are sent there and wait to be adopted. Families without children, or with few children, and with good conditions will come to adopt them." When Yan Bugui said this, he subconsciously glanced at the Intermediate Court.

"Is the old man back?" Wang Xiaohu asked casually. Sometimes he felt that he and this old man Yan were in sync and they would think the same thing.

"I'm back. I guess he's cooking now." Yan Bugui smiled. As the goalkeeper, he knew best who was there in the yard.

Wang Xiaohu pulled the two children over and said, "Uncle will take you to dinner. There is a good person in this courtyard who needs to be taken care of."

Jin Xiaohe's eyes lit up and he nodded, while Jin Xiaomiao whispered in a hazy voice, "Thank you, Susu~"

……

Yi Zhonghai's family.

At this time, the aunt had already prepared the meal.

"Boss, it's time to eat."

"I'm here." Yi Zhonghai put down the newspaper in his hand. On the table were steamed buns and wowotou made of two grams of flour, two bowls of corn porridge, and a plate of pickles.

The old lady handed Yi Zhonghai a steamed bun made of two grains of flour, and in her bowl was a steamed corn bread.

"You should also eat better and keep in good shape."

"We don't have a child either. If we did, you wouldn't do so many things against your will..."

Against your will? Yi Zhonghai was stunned, then smiled awkwardly: "Don't think too much. Let's eat first."

As soon as Yi Zhonghai picked up the chopsticks, Wang Xiaohu pushed the door open and said, "Oh, you are eating. It's better to arrive early than late."

"Come on, Xiaohe, Xiaomiao, it's time to eat." Wang Xiaohu pulled the two children to the dining table, took the bowls in front of them and put them in front of the two children. He evenly distributed them, putting one steamed bun made of two grains of flour and one corn cob in each bowl.

"Eat, this is the most kindhearted uncle in the courtyard. He hates to see others go hungry. He will lend a helping hand to those in need without hesitation. He is a role model in Nanluoguxiang."

"Wang Xiaohu you...you...said it well." Yi Zhonghai originally wanted to scold him, but after being praised like that, he felt embarrassed.

Jin Xiaohe and Jin Xiaomiao looked at the good stuff in front of them but didn't dare to move. Instead, they looked at the old lady with eager eyes. Yi Zhonghai was too fierce and they were a little scared.

"Children, you must be hungry. Eat some. Auntie has more here." The auntie could not withstand this attack and was defeated in an instant. Looking at the two little girls, she seemed to see her own children.

"I want to eat too~" The Jia family members who heard the noise also came, and Banggeng was the first to rush forward.

"I'm sorry, sir. I'm so pregnant that I can't stop the stick. The child is also hungry." Qin Huairu cried poor as soon as she arrived.

Wang Xiaohu was a little impressed by this woman. She was always keeping an eye on her blood bags and would rush over as soon as she saw any danger. She reacted quickly.

When Yi Zhonghai saw that it was Banggeng, he immediately changed people and snatched the bowl from Jin Xiaomiao: "Banggeng is a little boy, he consumes a lot of food, after ordering many times, you two can just share it."
