Chapter 188 Sending Food

When He Yushui came out of the kitchen after washing the dishes and was about to go back to her room, He Yuzhu stopped her and asked, "Yushui, do you have anything to do tomorrow?!"

He Yushui replied, "Brother, I'll be fine tomorrow." Then he asked, "What's the matter?!"

He Yuzhu said: "I want to go to my grandfather's place tomorrow and give them some things."

"Okay!" He Yushui's eyes suddenly lit up and said, "I'll go with you tomorrow."

He Yuzhu nodded and said, "I will send your sister-in-law to work tomorrow, and then come back to pick you up, and send the prepared things over."

He Yushui asked curiously: "Brother, what are you sending over?!"

He Yuzhu replied: "Send them some food."

"Send food?!" He Yushui was slightly stunned, then asked: "Don't they eat in the village's collective canteen?!"

He Yuzhu said: "Before the holiday, I heard from Dongzi that the village canteen would be closed."

He Yushui asked with a puzzled look on his face: "Why is the cafeteria shut down for no reason?!"

He Yuzhu said, "There is only so much food. Working hard and taking advantage of the situation will get the same amount. If it were you, would you be willing to do that?!"

"I don't want to!" He Yushui replied instinctively, and then smiled at He Yuzhu.

He Yuzhu said, "Go back to the house and rest! I need to rest for a while, too. I have to go pick up your sister-in-law from get off work later."

At 4:30 in the afternoon, He Yuzhu appeared at the door of the police station on time. Huang Ying walked out of the police station with a light step, holding the meat in her hand, smiling. He Yuzhu helped Huang Ying into the car and said, "Your director is quite generous. He will share the meat now?!"

Huang Ying rolled her eyes at He Yuzhu and jokingly said, "If you don't divide them, will you keep them for breeding?!"

He Yuzhu rode on the tricycle and said as he walked towards the courtyard: "I didn't just say this casually."

Huang Ying said: "No one got five kilograms, and the remaining fifty kilograms were sent to the bureau by Uncle Zhang."

Before Huang Ying could finish her words, He Yuzhu stopped, turned his head and looked at Huang Ying, and asked, "Is he going to take another job?!"

Huang Ying laughed and said, "You really guessed it right. But I replied."

"Zhang Hu is a dishonest guy. He only takes advantage of people he knows." He Yuzhu continued to pedal his tricycle. Huang Ying said, "Before he got off work, he gave me the money. I'll give it to you when I get home."

"Hey!" He Yuzhu responded and warned: "Wife, don't take this job again next year. This time, I spent a lot of favors to get this meat."

"I know!" Huang Ying echoed, staring at He Yuzhu's back in fascination.

After about seven or eight minutes, He Yuzhu stopped. After getting off the car, He Yuzhu helped Huang Ying off the car, and then pushed the tricycle into the courtyard gate. Yan Bugui suddenly came out of the house like a cat smelling fishy smell. When he saw the meat in Huang Ying's hand, his eyes lit up instantly. Yan Bugui asked with a smile: "Are you off work?!"

"Off work!" Huang Ying replied, and didn't say much to Yan Bugui, intending to walk in directly. However, Huang Ying underestimated Yan Bugui's thick skin. Just as Huang Ying walked past Yan Bugui, Yan Bugui's voice rang out: "He Yuzhu's family, the meat in your hand is really good?!"

When He Yuzhu heard Yan Bugui's voice, he immediately stopped the tricycle, walked to Huang Ying's side, and asked, "Uncle, this meat is good, right?!"

Yan Bugui nodded and agreed, "Not bad!"

He Yuzhu said, "Not bad, right?! But there's no share for you. Just take a look at it. Just think of it as a way to quench your thirst. Wife, let's go home! I'll make you braised pork in the evening." After saying that, He Yuzhu took Huang Ying's hand and walked away from Yan Bugui.

Yan Bugui looked at the backs of He Yuzhu and Huang Ying and sighed deeply, as if he had lost a large sum of money at once, and returned home dejected.

Nothing happened that night. The next morning, after He Yuzhu sent his wife to work, he returned to the courtyard, called He Yushui, took their things, and the brother and sister went out together.

"Zhuzi, Yushui!" Before He Yuzhu reached the village entrance on his tricycle, he heard Lv Guoliang's voice not far behind him. He Yushui heard the voice and hurriedly shouted, "Brother, stop the car!"

He Yuzhu stopped the tricycle and asked, "What's the matter?!"

He Yushui replied: "My third uncle and aunt are in the back."

"Where is it?!" He Yuzhu turned his head and looked behind him. He Yushui pointed to a place not far away and said, "There!"

He Yuzhu looked in the direction He Yushui pointed, and it was indeed his third uncle and aunt. He Yuzhu said, "Then let's wait for them for a while."

Not long after, Lv Guoliang and Niu Guihua came over. Lv Guoliang said, "I think you two are brother and sister."

He Yuzhu asked: "Third uncle, where are you and aunt from?!"

Lu Guoliang said, "Visiting your third aunt's relatives, and ordering some bricks and tiles."

He Yuzhu asked: "We are going to build a house at home?!"

Lu Guoliang smiled and replied, "Yes! Your uncle wants to build a house in his hometown."

"This is a good thing!" He Yuzhu echoed, urging: "Uncle, Aunt! Get in the car!"

"Hey!" Lv Guoliang and Niu Guihua responded in unison and climbed onto the tricycle. After they sat firmly, He Yuzhu began to pedal the tricycle forward.

When Lu Guoliang saw the things in the car, the smile on his face disappeared, frowned, and asked: "Zhu Zi, you are not going over?!"

He Yuzhu replied, "Uncle, I know the current situation in the countryside. The situation outside is even worse than here. Although I don't have the ability to feed everyone, I can at least ensure that my family doesn't go hungry. Although I haven't saved anything in the past few years, I have saved a lot of food."

Lu Guoliang said: "Zhu Zi, this is not appropriate, right?!"

He Yuzhu replied: "What's inappropriate?! I have the final say on this matter. Besides, after the Chinese New Year, I will take my grandparents to my place. A family cannot live without elderly people. Let grandparents live with me for a while."

Lu Guoliang and Niu Guihua looked at each other. Lu Guoliang said slowly, "Zhu Zi, what can I say?!"

He Yuzhu said, "If you don't know what to say, don't say it!" Then he reminded, "Don't tell anyone that your third uncle has food at home. Otherwise, someone with ulterior motives will target you."

Niu Guihua said: "Zhu Zi, don't worry! We will be careful."

After about 20 minutes, the tricycle arrived at the door of Lv Shunyi's house. After He Yuzhu and the other three got off the tricycle, Lv Guoliang shouted to the courtyard, "Open the door!"

When Lu Guodong heard the shout, he ran to the gate, opened it, and saw He Yushui standing next to Lu Guoliang. He smiled and asked, "Yushui, why are you here? Where's your brother?!"

"Uncle!" He Yuzhu called out, urging, "Don't block the door?!"

Lu Guodong immediately made way, and Lu Guoliang and He Yushui quickly entered the yard, while He Yuzhu followed in with his tricycle. After Niu Guihua entered the yard, she closed the gate and locked it from the inside.

"Third uncle, please move the things in the car into the cellar. I'll take Yu Shui in to see grandpa and grandma." After saying that, He Yuzhu picked up the blue cloth bag in the car and walked towards the main room with He Yu Shui.

Lu Guodong asked: "Why did you come back together?!"

Lu Guoliang replied, "I met him on the way." Then he urged, "Give me a hand!"

Lv Guodong helped to lift a sack and put it on Lv Guoliang's shoulders. After Lv Guoliang left, Lv Guodong also picked up a sack and followed him to the utility room.
