Just like yesterday, it was Aunt Yi who woke Yi Xuexi up on the second day of the new year.
Today was the second day of the new year. For the first time in so many years, someone was going to visit their family on the second day of the new year.
In the past, their family could only watch other people's houses be lively on the second day of the new year. But today, they were also going to have guests.
At such an important time, Aunt Yi couldn't be negligent. She woke Yi Zhonghai up early in the morning to sweep the floor, then opened the window to let out the smell. When it was ready, she called Yi Xuexue to prepare breakfast.
Yi Xuexi couldn't help but grumble in his heart as he ate the cooked dumplings.
It seemed that he couldn't read today. If he had known earlier, he wouldn't have gotten close to He Yushui secretly. Now, even though Aunt Yi and Yi Zhonghai were happy, he had to put down his study time.
Speaking of which, he had almost finished reading an English grammar book and had basically remastered the ability to make sentences in English. However, this could only be said to be a superficial grasp. It was not even the foundation. It was a bit of a pipe dream for him to write a masterpiece like " One Hundred Years of Solitude " with his current ability.
According to his own estimation, in the five years of primary school, what he needed to do was to master the ability to read and write in English. Then, in the four years of junior high school, he would master the ability to write in English. This way, when he entered high school, he would basically be able to copy the " One Hundred Years of Solitude " in his mind.
After he finished high school, the current trend would pass. He would then take the college entrance examination. Perhaps he could even earn some face for the auntie and Yi Zhonghai.
As she made plans for the future in her heart, the family finished their breakfast and Aunt Yi began to prepare.
She was chopping pork and picking vegetables. It seemed that Aunt Yi wanted to use all the good things in the house.
As for Yi Zhonghai, although he was sitting in the room, he would stand up and look outside when he heard some noise. It was as if he was afraid that he would not be able to hear He Yushui when she came.
Yi Xuexue was the only one who was sitting at the dining table reading a book. When He Yushui arrived, the dining table would no longer be his.
As she was reading, Yi Xuexi's family heard a noise outside.
"…You're here to see Grandpa One.”
Yi Zhonghai immediately got up and walked out of the house. He saw Li Baocai putting down his bicycle.
"Master, I'm here to see you."
As he spoke, Li Baocai also took down the two bottles of good wine hanging on the bicycle.
"Bao Cai is here. Come in and sit."
Yi Zhonghai could not hide his disappointment.
The disappointment on his face was naturally seen by Li Baocai. With a little thought, he guessed that Yi Zhonghai was complaining that the person who came was not He Yushui or Liu Jiacai, but Li Baocai.
"Master, that's not right. I'm your disciple. In order to see you, I even specially went to my grandmother's house and brought two bottles of Fen wine over.”
Fortunately, Li Baocai also knew about Yi Zhonghai's family situation, so he joked a little before entering the house.
After entering the house, he first greeted Aunt Yi and then greeted Yi Xuexi, who was packing his books. He also wanted to give Yi Xuexi some red pocket money, but Yi Zhonghai stopped him. Yi Zhonghai knew about Yu Haitang's matter, and Li Baocai could not spend money recklessly now.
After he sat down, Yi Zhonghai looked at the wine that Li Baocai had brought.
"Not bad, Bao Cai. You're actually a four-year-old. This has been in the market for more than 20 years. Where did you get it?”
Yi Zhonghai was a little surprised. He had never drunk Fen wine that had been aged for more than 20 years.
"Hai, didn't I go to my grandma's place with my mom just now? After I told her about Haitang, my grandma insisted that I bring these two bottles of good wine.”
Li Baocai called out to Haitang before he even met her.
This made Yi Xuexi want to laugh. Aunt Yi and Yi Zhonghai also took the opportunity to criticize him.
"So what if I'm called Haitang? I've been alone for so many years, and my family has been worried sick. I'm also worried. Besides, Yu Haitang hasn't come yet, so what if I'm called Haitang?”
Li Baocai's face was filled with indifference. It seemed that he had set his sights on Haitang.
However, ever since Yu Haitang entered the publicity department of the rolling mill, she was known as the flower of the rolling mill. She directly surpassed Liu Lan in the canteen, so much so that Liu Lan would tremble a few times every time she served Yu Haitang.
Although Liu Lan was gone, Li Baocai felt that he was lucky to have Yu Haitang, who was prettier than Liu Lan.
Moreover, Haitang's father had become the leader of the district supply and marketing cooperative this year. After marrying Yu Haitang, if their family lacked anything, they could just go to their father-in-law's house.
After talking about the factory for a while, He Yushui and Liu Jiacai arrived on their bicycles.
Hearing the noise outside, Yi Zhonghai could not care less about talking and walked out directly. This made Li Baocai, who was sitting, envious. Looking at the treatment, and then looking at himself, this disciple was not as close as his daughter.
After leaving the house, Yi Zhonghai saw Liu Jiacai and He Yushui taking things from their bicycles. This time, the couple had brought a lot of things, including meat and fish. There was also a box of beer. Judging from the brand, it was Qindao beer from Lu Province.
"Dad, Mom, I'm here with A Cai to see you.”
Seeing Yi Zhonghai and a middle-aged woman come out, He Yushui smiled and shouted.
This made Silly Zhu, who was hiding behind the main door, unhappy.
"It's good that you're here, it's good that you're here. Why do you think you brought so many things?”
Aunt Yi reached out to wipe the cloth, then held He Yushui's hand and looked at it. Although it had only been a month, Aunt Yi felt like it had been a few years.
He Yushui had gained some weight recently, and her face was a little ruddy. It was obvious that she was doing well in the Liu family.
Aunt Yi first pulled He Yushui into the house to talk. As for Liu Jiacai, he went with Yi Zhonghai and Li Baocai to get their things.
"Child, you bring so many things every time you come. Didn't I tell you that we don't lack anything at home?”
Although Yi Zhonghai was blaming him, the happiness in his words was obvious even to the deaf.
"That's right, brother-in-law. It's not like you don't know my master's salary. It's higher than the factory manager in the rolling mill.”
Li Baocai also chimed in. Because he was afraid that it would be cold outside, he pulled Yi Xuexi back when he was about to come out.
"No matter how high Uncle One's salary is, it's still Uncle One's. We can't come empty-handed, right? Moreover, most of these were given to me by Aunt One before. I was the one who got this box of beer. I know that Uncle One can't drink. Coincidentally, one of my dad's colleagues 'hometown is Qin Island, so I asked my dad to get him to find me a box. My dad even showed me that this was a factory. I don't know what's different about this factory.”
Speaking of which, Liu Jiacai felt a little embarrassed.
This year, the meat they ate for the New Year was all taken back from Aunt Yi. In addition to the previous house and 300 yuan, Father Liu wouldn't have put down his face and asked others to bring food.
"We want to try the Qindao beer from the No. 1 factory today. Don't even think about taking it away.”
Before Yi Zhonghai could say anything, Li Baocai interrupted excitedly.
Although it wasn't summer, beer was a good thing. Even his uncle didn't have much beer, and it was all from Yanjing.
"Alright, you're the one who's greedy. It's cold outside. Let's hurry into the house.”
After slapping Li Baocai, Yi Zhonghai brought the two of them into the house.
Now, Aunt Yi had already pulled He Yushui to the edge of the Kang to sit and talk. Yi Xuexi was also sitting beside her, interrupting from time to time.
The three men sat at the dining table in the room. Li Baocai took the initiative to pour tea. The three men began to talk about the situation in Vietnam. Vietnam was currently at war with the United States. They had heard that the United States was beaten up badly.
Because of the previous incident, there was no one in the country who stood on the side of the United States. Everyone was happy to see the United States make a fool of themselves.
The Americans had been beaten up so badly that the commoners were naturally happy. Perhaps a few words had reached the ears of the three people on the Kang.
However, the three people on the bed did not care about these national affairs. Aunt Yi was asking about He Yushui's health. Previously, because of He Yushui's illness, Aunt Yi did not sleep well for two days.
"It's fine, Aunt Yi. I just have a little stomach discomfort these two days and can't eat anything.”
Compared to Aunt Yi, who had been worried for two days, He Yushui didn't care much.
After persuading Aunt Yi not to worry, He Yushui praised Yi Xuexue again. She had also learned from the cotton mill that Yi Xuexue's test papers had been hung on the bulletin board. Because of this, the Liu family had even criticized Liu Yicai.
Every time Father Liu talked about Liu Yicai, He Yushui couldn't help but want to laugh. Because of this incident, she had been in a much better mood recently.
After chatting for a while, Aunt Yi and He Yushui also got busy cooking.
Although Aunt Yi had said that it would be fine to let He Shuiyu sit, He Shuiyu did not agree no matter what. In the end, Aunt Yi could only let her be.
After more than an hour, the two of them finished cooking a large table of dishes. While cooking, Aunt Yi saw He Yushui add vinegar several times.
Seeing that the dishes were ready, the three men began to clean up the table.
When opening the bottle, Li Baocai said that he wanted to open the bottle of Fen wine that he had brought. However, in the end, under Yi Zhonghai's insistence, he still opened the bottle of beer.
Because the alcohol content of the beer was low, even Aunt Yi and He Yushui were placed with wine glasses in front of them. If Yi Zhonghai had not stopped them, Li Baocai would probably have filled Yi Xuexi's glass.
Just as they were eating, He Yushui suddenly covered her mouth and ran out. This made the people at the table a little scared. Could He Yushui be allergic to beer? Liu Jiacai couldn't care less about eating and ran out to see He Yushui.
Li Baocai's face was also filled with fear. If anything really happened to He Yushui because of the beer, then he would not be able to live well in the future.
Yi Zhonghai also wanted to go out and take a look, but he was stopped by Aunt Yi. He couldn't help but look at Aunt Yi. Not only was she not worried, but there was also a hint of unconcealable joy on her face.
It was also because he saw Aunt Yi's expression that Yi Xuexi sat obediently and did not run out to take a look. He believed that there must be a reason why Aunt Yi was not worried, but he did not know what the reason was.
When Liu Jiacai came back with He Yushui, Aunt Yi looked at the young couple and spoke calmly.
"Yushui, have you been hungry for the past two days, but you can't eat anything.”
Hearing Aunt Yi's words, Rainwater was a little surprised. She had indeed been like this for the past two days, but she was afraid that Aunt Yi would worry, so she didn't dare to say it just now. She didn't expect Aunt Yi to guess it.
"Aunt Yi, how did you know?”
Seeing He Yushui's expression, Aunt Yi knew that her guess was right. She could not help but blame Liu Jiacai in her heart. Her family was the same. How could they not think of such a thing?
"Don't be afraid, Rainy. Let your Uncle Yi take your pulse.”
After comforting He Yushui, Aunt Yi gave Yi Zhonghai a look.
He Yushui had never known that Yi Zhonghai had the ability to take a pulse. However, she knew that Aunt Yi and Yi Zhonghai would not harm her, so she obediently stretched out her hand.
Yi Zhonghai pressed his index and middle fingers on He Yushui's wrist and closed his eyes to feel.
Liu Jiacai and Li Baocai were worried. Liu Jiacai was worried about He Yushui's health, and Li Baocai was worried about his allergy.
Yi Zhonghai couldn't help but smile after he held He Yushui's wrist. The more he looked, the more happy he became. Two minutes later, he opened his eyes and nodded at Aunt Yi.
"Grandpa Yi, is Rainwater alright?”
Liu Jiacai asked worriedly when he saw Grandpa One take his hand back. He and He Yushui had just gotten married. He did not want anything to happen to He Yushui's body. If that happened, their family would be finished.
"Silly child, your wife is pregnant.”
Aunt Yi said with a smile. She calculated the time in her heart. Liu Jiacai and He Yushui had been married for more than two months. If they were pregnant, they would have feelings for each other at this time.
In addition, He Yushui suddenly liked to eat sour food, but she couldn't eat anything. Now, she was retching. If this wasn't a happy occasion, what was it?
"I'm pregnant, really."
Liu Jiacai asked in disbelief. He didn't expect to be a father so soon.
He Yushui was also shocked. She was only two months old. How could she be pregnant?
"How can I lie to you about this? When I was pregnant and studying, your Grandpa Yi wanted to take my pulse three times a day. He might not be able to take other pulses, but your Grandpa Yi can't be wrong. However, this is not allowed. You have to go to the hospital for a good check-up in the next two days.”
Aunt Yi was smiling as she spoke. After having a child, the small family of He Yushui and Liu Jiacai officially began. As for the past, it was at most half a family.
"Yushui, we're going to have a child.”
Liu Jiacai looked at He Yushui in disbelief. This news was too shocking for him to react.
"Yes."
He Yushui replied with a red face.
With this news, the Yi family's meal became even more lively.
However, the wine glass in front of He Yushui must have been taken away by Aunt Yi. He Yushui still had a child in her stomach. How could she drink? If she hurt the child, no one could bear the responsibility.
