Courtyard: My wife is Wen Li

Chapter 44 Donating food in lean years?

He Yuzhu still went out to cook early the next morning. Since the last incident, someone really observed their home and found that it was really He Yuzhu who was cooking.

I cook in the morning and bring lunch boxes to my wife and sister. After all, both of us work and my sister goes to school, so there is no one at home all day.

Until I came back in the evening, Wen Li was correcting her homework, and He Yuyu was studying. My sister and I were together, but there was no one to cook.

Wait until He Yuzhu comes back from get off work to cook or bring lunch boxes, but now there are a lot less lunch boxes, and He Yuzhu comes back on time most of the time.

Now is the year of disaster, and there are far fewer people asking for help from He Yuzhu, even in the factory.

It seems that He Yuzhu's family is also starting to have difficulties, but He Yuzhu's family is not short of oil, water and nutrients. For example, one egg a day is a must.

Boiled eggs directly or steamed chicken cakes have no taste.

He Yuzhu was cooking outside, most of which were vegetables, but with peanut oil in them, but the peanut oil didn't have as much flavor as lard.

There was also a lot of meat, but He Yuzhu tried to reduce the smell as much as possible so as not to fill the courtyard with the smell of meat.

There is a shortage of meat these days. What He Yuzhu cooks the most is plain chicken and saliva chicken. He just makes some dipping sauces.

We cook a big meal every week at Wen's house, but there is no shortage of pork, but there is no shortage of meat, oil and water.

In the evening, He Yuzhu got off work on time. Because he had a bicycle, he got home one step ahead of Yi Zhonghai and others!

Then we started cooking, steaming the steamed buns of the two-jaw noodles, then frying two vegetables, bringing some pickles from the cellar, and the family ate directly.

At this time, people working in the compound began to come back one after another, but most of them had people at home and ate directly when they came back.

After dinner, Yi Zhonghai, Liu Haizhong and Yan Bugui convened a general meeting of the hospital. Except for Yi Zhonghai, Liu Haizhong and Yan Bugui had a large family and many sons.

Liu Haizhong also had his own purpose today. He agreed to Yi Zhonghai not just for prestige, but because his eldest son Liu Guangqi was getting married.

Liu Guangqi was his most beloved son, so naturally he couldn't get married casually, but there was only a wing at the back of their house, so it was really hard to live in this place.

So I planned to rent a room outside for Liu Guangqi's wedding. In addition, the banquet was also difficult.

At most, there are only two tables, but these two tables cannot be simple. At the same time, Liu Guangqi's thirty-six legs cannot be missing, including sewing machines, bicycles, etc.

Liu Haizhong was willing to cooperate with Yi Zhonghai this time because he wanted to see the real situation of He Yuzhu's family and whether he had any spare energy, so that he could get some things by then.

This is what he thought. Yi Zhonghai didn't know about this. Liu Haizhong originally wanted to find He Yuzhu. This was Liu Guangqi's idea. This time, he took advantage of the hospital-wide meeting initiated by Yi Zhonghai.

The staff was gathered quickly. It was already May and the weather was neither hot nor cold.

"The main purpose of convening a general meeting of the hospital today is to help the Jia family!" Liu Haizhong still spoke first, otherwise he would always be unable to get in the conversation. "Let the senior man of our hospital talk about this matter in detail."

Yi Zhonghai said: "Everyone knows the situation of the Jia family. Jia Dongxu is the only one with a city registered permanent residence, but now there are five people in the family."

"His monthly ration is limited, and since he is also a front-line worker in the factory, he doesn't eat much and can't do much work."

"Our compound has always helped each other, respected the elderly and cared for the young. Last year, we were even rated as advanced in the street."

"We should carry forward our spirit and get through this together."

"Today is to see whose family is rich and donate a little food to the Jia family every month. I will take the lead and donate ten pounds of stick noodles every month!"

"Thank you, sir!" Jia Dongxu hurriedly thanked him.

Originally, Yi Zhonghai lent these ten kilograms to Jia Dongxu, but now it has been directly converted into a donation and does not need to be paid back. Jia Dongxu is naturally grateful. In addition, Yi Zhonghai also called on the entire hospital to donate to him.

When Liu Haizhong heard this, he said: "I am the second uncle, but my family has a large population and they are all young men. I will donate five pounds every month until the disaster is over."

Yan Bugui knew that he couldn't run away. "My family's situation is even more difficult. After all, our family does not have heavy physical labor, and the ration has been reduced too low. However, as the third uncle, I donate one pound of stick noodles every month."

In this way, the three uncles donated 16 pounds, which is for one month.

This is food, not money!

Donating food in lean years is so embarrassing!

Yi Zhonghai saw it, and then said: "Our compound is advanced, and we must be advanced. This is an honorable thing, and we should do it according to our ability."

"It's good to be able to squeeze out a few taels or half a catty at home, and the disaster is unlikely to last forever."

"If any family has difficulties in the future, the people in the compound can also help!"

When everyone heard this, they became active. There were half a catty and eight taels, and now the eating methods are extremely precise.

He Yuzhu sat and listened. Neither Wen Li nor He Yuzhu came out. He didn't let them come out. After all, Wen Li was pregnant.

It doesn't matter whether you donate or not, but He Yuzhu doesn't want to start with this. After all, the Jia family's difficulties are caused by their own family. They didn't say anything when they took advantage of it, but now they have to make up for the loss. This is unreasonable.

The reason why Jia Dongxu had an accident in the factory was partly because he was hungry, and partly because he exerted too much force on Qin Huairu.

His accident should have happened in 1961, that is, next year, Qin Huairu was pregnant with her third child Huaihua at that time.

He Yuzhu didn't move, but Yi Zhonghai couldn't sit still, "He Yuzhu, your family's conditions are good, aren't you going to donate a little?"

"People can't always think about themselves. When your family is in trouble, don't you need everyone's help?"

This time Liu Haizhong didn't agree, and Yan Bugui didn't speak either. It was just Yi Zhonghai, and no one was there to help him.

He Yuzhu said: "It doesn't matter if I donate a little. After all, I can save some of my food rations, but it's no coincidence!"

"My wife has been found to be pregnant, and Yu Yu is about to take the college entrance examination. Our family still has to help Wen Li's family. There is really no other way."

"..." Yi Zhonghai was stunned. He Yuzhu has a wife?

He originally saw that Wen Li's belly had not moved. Although the Yanbu Gui family had always said that He Yuzhu wanted it later, he did not believe it. He preferred to believe that He Yuzhu's wife was unable to give birth.

The result is now there.

And Xu Damao was stunned when he heard this. He Yuzhu is going to have a child?
