The textile factory in Beijing closed at 4 pm and would occasionally work overtime.
When it was time to get off work, the workers in the factory all went home. Almost all of them were female workers, and very few of them had bicycles.
Qin Huairu rode her bicycle.
As soon as she returned to the courtyard house, she saw He Yushui talking and laughing with Ma Cuihua.
More than ten children were playing in the front yard. Among them were Ma Cuihua's two sons.
"Zhu Zi, this silly sister!" Qin Huairu felt helpless.
She had been married to He Yuzhu for a year now, and Qin Huairu had long understood her sister-in-law.
Qin Huiru sometimes liked He Yushui's naivety, but at other times, she hated it.
Sometimes, Qin Huiru wished that He Yushui would be more careful.
Rainwater's heart was good, but it was not a bad thing for her family.
"Sister-in-law, you're off work." Upon seeing Qin Huiru return, He Yushui went up to her.
"Where's Preserved Egg?"
"I'm still asleep, I'm still in the middle of my ennui."
Ma Cuihua also came to greet him.
Although she wasn't familiar with Qin Huairu, Ma Cuihua was very satisfied that she could build a good relationship with He Yushui today.
After exchanging a few pleasantries with Ma Cuihua, Qin Huiru went into the house to look after the child.
At this time, Ma Cuihua also returned to the Xu family.
A few families were already preparing dinner in the courtyard.
The children who were going to school were almost out of school.
After seeing the child, Qin Huairu prepared to make dinner.
"Yushui, what do you want to eat today?”Qin Huiru asked casually.
As for He Yuzhu's preferences, Qin Huairu knew.
"I haven't eaten fish for a few days. I'll make tofu fish soup with some cabbage.”He Yushui said with a smile.
In the kitchen, there was an porcelain basin with a carp inside.
"Did you buy the fish at home?" Qin Huiru remembered that there were no fish at home.
"A middle-aged woman gave it to me." He Yushui said.
Qin Huairu merely smiled.
Fish was also meat. Although it could not compare to pork and chicken, it was not too cheap. This one cost about 20 cents.
First Uncle was about to be promoted to a Level 8 fitter. His monthly salary was not low, so a fish was nothing.
Regardless of whether it was in the factory or in the courtyard, the First Master's family often gave the He family some small favors. The reason was naturally because of the problem of retirement.
An old man and an old woman thought that He Yuzhu could support them in their old age.
If He Yuzhu wanted to take care of the old man and woman in their old age, Qin Huairu would not object.
First Uncle had a salary and would have a pension in the future. In addition, he had a house. It was not a loss to give him and First Aunt a retirement. The premise was that First Uncle and First Aunt did not fall ill.
The country would provide free treatment for minor illnesses, but for major illnesses, it would cost money.
Free medical treatment did not mean that all diseases were treated for free. Even if all diseases were treated for free, the medicine was also divided into good and bad. The free medicine would definitely use the cheapest medicine.
Moreover, the country was short of materials, including medicines. Therefore, although there was a policy of free medical treatment, if one really entered the hospital, they would have to queue up for free.
Although her culinary skills were far inferior to He Yuzhu's, Qin Huairu's home-cooked dishes were still pretty good.
Sweet and sour fish was one of the better dishes Qin Huiru made.
After removing the fish scales, gills, and internal organs, washing them clean, removing the fishy smell, and seasoning them with ginger…Qin Huairu swiftly made a sweet and sour fish.
At this moment, He Yuyu's voice came from outside.""Dad?"
What Qing Dynasty?
Qin Huairu was stunned and hurriedly came out of the kitchen.
As expected, He Daqing had returned.
He Daqing had not recovered from his stroke. A young man was supporting him. It was the younger brother of the White Widow, Bai Piao.
Bai Piao was a worker at the steel rolling mill, a Level 1 fitter. His hometown was in Baocheng, and his wife and children were also in Baocheng. He came to work in Sijiu City alone to earn more money.
It wasn't easy these days, so it was normal for them to leave their homes to earn more money.
It was a little unbelievable that a city protector could have a job at the Red Star Rolling Mill in City 49. Perhaps he had met a benefactor!
Although He Daqing had left He Yuzhu and He Yushui behind to protect the city, when He Daqing suffered a stroke, He Yushui did not blame He Daqing anymore.
Now that He Daqing had returned, He Yushui was also surprised. Seeing that He Daqing could not walk steadily, he quickly went over to help him.
"Eunuch." Qin Huairu's smile was a little forced.
He Daqing looked at the two houses, then at his daughter and daughter-in-law. His gaze was complicated.
He Daqing knew that it was a good idea to abandon his children to protect the city, but he was greedy for the body of the White Widow!
Ever since the stroke, He Daqing had been unable to work and could only rely on the White Widow to support him. The White Widow's burden was already heavy, and coupled with her selfishness and viciousness, she did not have a good face for He Daqing.
This time, He Daqing wanted He Yuzhu to take care of him in his old age.
Because he was not sure about He Yuzhu's attitude, He Daqing did not divorce the White Widow.
If He Yuzhu didn't support He Daqing, He Daqing could still return to Baocheng with their marriage.
"If Zhu Zi doesn't give me money for my retirement, I'll ask him to give me money.”He Daqing thought to himself.
In He Daqing's opinion, He Yuzhu was not filial, but his daughter and daughter-in-law were filial.
"Is Zhu Zi still working?" He Daqing asked.
"The rolling mill works overtime almost every day.”He Yuzhu said.
He Daqing knew the closing time of the rolling mill. If he worked overtime, it would be even later.
Before He Yuzhu returned, He Daqing wanted to make sure that He Yushui and Qin Huairu were on his side.
With his father-son relationship and the support of his daughter and daughter-in-law, He Daqing did not believe that He Yuzhu would not support him in his old age.
Next, He Daqing wanted to see his grandson.
However, after seeing his grandson, He Daqing didn't say anything. He didn't have any money, tickets, or milk powder. All that was left was his stoic face.
Bai Piao also sat down in the He family's residence.
Seeing the He family's exquisite tables, chairs, cabinets, and the television in the room, Bai Biao was also very envious.
"Dad, why are you back? Didn't Auntie Bai take good care of you?”He Yu Shui helped He Qing sit on a chair, turned on the TV, and even brought some fruits.
"Baocheng definitely can't compare to being at home!”He Daqing said.
He Daqing didn't want to go back to Baocheng, but he still had to see He Yuzhu's attitude.
If He Yuzhu did not raise He Daqing, Qin Huiru and He Yushui would be powerless.
"Why don't you stop protecting the city and ask Auntie Bai to come to Beijing? I'm the deputy director of the canteen now and I know many leaders. Ask him to find a job for Auntie Bai…" He Yusheng said to He Daqing.
Qin Huairu's expression changed when she heard He Yushui's words.
Qin Huiru could still accept He Daqing's return, but if the White Widow brought along the little ingrate, Qin Huiru would not be able to accept it.
"If your brother agrees to support me in my old age, I won't go to Baocheng. As for your Aunt Bai, I agree to divorce her.”He Daqing said in a low voice, but he didn't want the white bills to hear him.
"If I don't take care of you in your old age, I won't acknowledge you as my brother.”He Yushui was surprised that He Daqing wanted to divorce the White Widow, but she knew He Daqing's worries, so she said angrily.
