Chapter 405 There are still legends about him in the world
In the end, Yu Decai did not wait for Li Xuewu to come back. Instead, Peng Xiaoli went upstairs and told him that the leader had something to do and had gone home.
He had no choice but to ring. The bell had rang and songs started playing on the radio. He could only wait until he saw Li Xuewu tomorrow morning.
"Nothing important, right?"
In fact, I just saw Peng Xiaoli hurriedly walking through the door, and before I had time to ask, he went downstairs.
Now I heard him say that Li Xuewu had gone home, but he didn't get in the car, so he mentioned it.
Sometimes, leaders also need to properly understand private matters at home. Whether it is a red event or a private event, they will not take the initiative to invite you, but if you are not present, there will be problems.
Yu Decai used to be the section chief of the security department, and now he is the deputy leader of the security team.
Even if it is the leader's family affairs, even if the secretary has to be tight-lipped, it is not something elegant, but you can still talk about it.
In essence, Peng Xiaoli is the clerk of the Comprehensive Section, and Yu Decai is also his leader.
So when the other party asked, he simply explained: "It is said that the eldest sister-in-law gave birth..."
"Have a baby?"
Yu Decai raised his eyebrows, smiled and said: "This is a good thing, I should be there."
"Maybe there are other things, maybe"
Peng Xiaoli understood the meaning of the deputy team leader's words and took the initiative to explain to the leader.
In fact, deputy team leader Yu does not necessarily mean to complain about the leader's neglect of personal interests due to official duties, but more to defend the leader.
As a secretary, you still need to cover up when talking about the leader's private matters to facilitate the leader's handling and explanation afterwards.
It's not a big problem to leave work a few minutes early, and the two of them just talked about it.
After saying that, they nodded and went back to the office to pack their things and get off work.
Li Xuewu originally planned to give Peng Xiaoli a ride and see him off on the way to the Traditional Chinese Medicine Hospital.
But Peng Xiaoli refused on the pretext of going with Gu Cheng, knowing that the leader had urgent matters and there was no need to waste time.
It was urgent to have a baby, but Li Xuewu was not a student. There were so many people in the family preparing for it, so what could go wrong.
Li Xuewu wanted to go to the hospital because he and his eldest brother were the only two men at home. His father was not at home, and the brothers had to watch and help each other.
Don't say wait until something happens or you need help, and you can't delay your work.
If giving birth to a child is not a big deal, then what is a big deal?
You can do work at any time, and if you miss it with your family, you miss it.
So when Li Xuewu's figure appeared in the corridor of the delivery room, the eldest brother Xuewen couldn't help but stand up from the wooden bench.
There were several people standing or sitting at the door of the delivery room, waiting on both sides of the corridor.
Shen Guodong, Sha Zhu, the seventh child She Yongwen, the ninth child Dai Yongxing, as well as the eldest brother Xuewen, mother Liu Yin and Ji Yuxiu.
"Learn martial arts"
"Brother Wu"
"Second brother"
…
As he approached, everyone greeted him and turned their gazes towards him in the direction of the delivery room.
"How long ago did it arrive?"
After Li Xuewu greeted everyone, he stood next to his mother and asked the elder brother and others opposite.
The eldest brother Xuewen scratched his head. He couldn't say how panicked he was, but he couldn't answer his question at this moment.
I don't know if I forgot the time or didn't listen to his question at all.
It was Shen Guodong and Shazhu who explained the situation in a few words.
Liu Yin was relieved from her nervousness now. She squeezed her hands and said to her son: "It's almost time to make dinner. Avon suddenly said that her water broke. It didn't hurt or cause trouble. Tell me. This~"
She breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Fortunately, I was prepared. Xuewen went to call Guodong and the others. I took out the delivery bag that I had prepared earlier, and then I wrapped myself in a quilt and carried me into the car."
"Fortunately, yes, fortunately everything went well!"
Seeing his mother talking about how nervous she was at that time, Li Xuewu's hand on his mother's shoulder gently patted her to comfort her.
Shen Guodong stood against the wall with his arms folded and said with a smile: "Brother Xuewen shouted, I was shocked. We had just collected the car, so it was a coincidence."
"I'm more clever!"
Silly Zhu said in a funny way: "Xuewen shouted at the screen door, I was entering the hospital, I put down my bag and he just happened to hold hands."
"Oh, there must be more people and more strength."
Liu Yin said with emotion: "If you call us mothers, you can't lift Avon no matter what you say."
"Auntie, look at how polite you are."
Silly Zhu smiled and said: "Today I will help with studying literature, and tomorrow Delia will give birth, so he can help me."
"well"
The eldest brother Xuewen listened to everyone talking, and his nerves were relieved. There was a smile on his stiff face, and Si Zhu seriously agreed.
This was really embarrassing for Silly Zhu. When he asked Li Xuewen to help, he was just being polite to Aunt Liu.
Even if you need help, there are plenty of people to call Shen Guodong or Takao Fang.
I really asked the university teacher to help carry the pregnant woman, but he was really afraid to do it.
Especially Li Xuewen's personality is different from Li Xuewu's. He was still lively when he was a child, but he has become more stable when he grows up.
Unlike Li Xuewu, who was naughty when he was young but bad when he grows up, there is no pressure for everyone to gossip together.
Li Xuewen said it seriously at this time, which meant that he really accepted his feelings. It was a matter of neighbors helping each other, as if he was close to it.
Seeing the sincerity of his eldest brother and the true meaning of Silly Zhu, Li Xuewu changed the topic without embarrassing the two who were not on the right channel.
"Have you given a letter to the mountain?"
He looked at his eldest brother and asked, "Do you want to tell dad, or can I ask the car to pick him up?"
"Notify me..."
Li Xuewen's mind is also in chaos now, he is not very clear and has no ability to think.
Li Xuewu didn't look at him anymore, but looked at his mother and asked, "How about telling dad tonight and picking him up in the car tomorrow?"
"Okay, okay, good tomorrow"
Liu Yin originally agreed to go to the mountain to pick her up tonight, but after hearing what her son said, she realized that it was already dark.
Going up the mountain at night is dangerous on the way there and equally dangerous on the way back.
Even after arriving home, there was no urgent need for his help. It was already late at night, so what could he see?
So when Li Xuewu mentioned that he would go to the mountain to pick up Li Shun tomorrow, she happily nodded and agreed.
Turning around again, he saw Ji Yuxiu in uniform, and asked with a smile: "Come from the work unit?"
"No~ we're at the door of the house"
Ji Yuxiu smiled and said: "As soon as I entered the alley, I heard someone said that my sister-in-law had given birth. I turned here without even entering the hospital."
After speaking, he blinked and said to the worried elder brother: "Don't worry, Dean Zhao said he's ready, everything will be fine."
"I know, I know"
Li Xuewen was mumbling, but his eyes were looking straight at the delivery room. I'm afraid he didn't even hear what Ji Yuxiu said.
Ji Yuxiu glanced at him helplessly, then smiled at Li Xuewu.
Li Xuewu looked at his elder brother with understanding, waved to Shazhu, Guodong and others, and motioned them to go out and talk.
It only took a while from being carried from home to entering the delivery room. Giving birth, especially a natural birth, requires waiting.
It can be seen that Shen Guodong and others have been tired for a whole day, and it is hard work to do this trip again.
After going downstairs, I smoked a cigarette with a few people and arranged for them to go home first.
Even if I want to thank you, I have to choose a time later, or when I am a full moon, or when I am a hundred years old, and let my eldest brother toast to a few people while he is studying and serving wine.
At this moment, they sent a few people away and went upstairs to the office of Zhao Yufeng, the deputy director of the Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine.
It seemed that he knew Li Xuewu would come, or that the doorman had called him, and that he was still waiting for him in the office after getting off work.
"Li Chu, come in quickly"
Zhao Yufeng was very polite. When he saw Li Xuewu standing at the door, he quickly stood up from behind the desk and went to the door to greet him.
Li Xuewu also smiled and reached out his hand, muttering words of thanks.
"Dean Zhao, thank you very much. I just heard my mother talking about you."
"Oh, why are you being so polite as a family!"
Zhao Yufeng waved his hands pretending to be impatient, and then said with a smile: "I was afraid that they would be under pressure if I stayed there, so I went back to the office and waited for the news."
Saying this, he asked Li Xuewu to sit on the sofa, and a secretary cleverly came in to make tea.
"Don't worry, let alone your father's side, it's our relationship. How can I not care about it?"
"I heard that everything has been arranged properly."
Li Xuewu acknowledged his help with a smile, took the tea cup brought by the secretary and thanked him softly, and then said to Zhao Yufeng: "I just discussed with my family to pick my dad up tomorrow to have a look."
"It should!"
Zhao Yufeng raised his head slightly and agreed: "I'm holding my grandson. This is a happy event for the family, as it should be."
“Should I say it, it’s hard to be in the mountains even in the middle of winter, ugh~”
After saying this, he sighed, shook his head helplessly, and said: "It's fate that affects people, and the situation forces us to do so."
"Look what you said, I didn't complain to you!"
Li Xuewu smiled and said: "Even if I complain, I can't complain to you here. Zhao Xia is still on the mountain, suffering just as much."
"Young and young, there is nothing wrong with enduring hardship."
Zhao Yufeng looked at Li Xuewu and smiled and said: "If our Zhao Xia has one-tenth of your ability, I will not force him to endure hardship."
"But who said he doesn't have this ability?"
After saying that, he felt quite helpless when someone else's child wanted to beat his own child, and he shook his head.
Li Xuewu said with a smile: "If you say that, my father will have to tell you the history of my youth and frivolity when he comes back."
"Hahaha~"
Zhao Yufeng obviously knew something. He laughed out loud at this moment, but he said firmly: "Tao boy, Tao boy, if you don't do it, you won't be a good boy!"
After taking a sip of tea, he smiled and said: "If Zhao Xia could get results like yours, he wouldn't be able to go to college. He would still look like he is indifferent to all kinds of things."
After saying that, he waved his hand and said, "I'm too lazy to talk to him. I saw you, and I saw him getting even more angry and squatting down the mountain."
"Don't tell me!"
Li Xuewu picked up the tea cup and said with a smile: "I heard from the third child that Zhao Xia has a good brain. What he memorized three times, Zhao Xia can memorize once."
He praised it, took a sip of hot tea, and joked: "Don't wait for Zhao Xia and his colleagues to finish their internship. We have been apart for three days, and you will be impressed!"
"Haha! Then I'll be burning incense!"
Although Zhao Yufeng didn't say anything, he was extremely happy when his son was praised, especially by Li Xuewu.
There are only two kinds of goodness in the eyes of men in this world, one is the goodness of other people's wives, and the other is the goodness of one's own children.
No matter how incompetent your child is, if you can speak up for yourself, the slightest comment from others will be considered too much.
Li Xuewu is a talkative and transparent person. How could the two of them poke their lungs while sitting here talking.
However, Zhao Yufeng knew very well that Li Xuewu was young, talented, arrogant, and especially had a profound background and outstanding abilities.
He is in his early twenties, holds a high position and has a great reputation. He really doesn't see much, especially after liberation.
Such an outstanding young man would not please others easily. If his son can do it, then he can do it. If his son can't do it, then he can do it.
"Speaking of which, I want to say thank you to your dad."
Zhao Yufeng nodded and said seriously: "Zhao Xia always mentions your father's teachings in his letters, and he teaches them with all his resources. He is a rare famous teacher."
"Hey, didn't I tell you everything~"
Li Xuewu smiled and said: "Zhao Xia's brain is easy to use. My dad likes it, and it is easy to teach, unlike me."
At this moment, he laughed at himself: "My dad used a small tree stick to beat me, and my arms turned red, but I just didn't learn from him, which made him so angry."
"What kind of fate is this?"
Zhao Yufeng looked at Li Xuewu with a smile and said: "Blessed people don't have to worry about it, and unlucky people have to go through heartache. It's your turn to take this path."
"My dad would have listened to you! Haha~"
Li Xuewu glanced at the other party with a smile, put down the tea cup in his hand, shook his head slightly and said: "Some things really can't be said!"
"Look, when this medical office is set up on the mountain, how many people will praise you and say that you have foresight!"
"Oh~ Just don't scold me~"
Zhao Yufeng smiled bitterly, looked at Li Xuewu and asked, "I heard that the steel rolling mill has adopted foreign trade channels and is developing very well now!"
"What a coincidence~"
Li Xuewu knew what he was going to say, nodded and explained: "At the Yangcheng Export Commodity Fair, our factory's small hardware and kitchen hardware were exhibited and sold, and I met some foreign businessmen."
"That's not easy either!"
Zhao Yufeng affirmed: "This is not the first time that an export trade fair has been held. It is rare to see one that really makes a name for itself!"
“There is no big development in sight yet.”
Li Xuewu nodded slightly and said: "The main thing is to expand the economic capacity and solve part of the production overflow."
"I see, I thought..."
Zhao Yufeng glanced at Li Xuewu and before he finished speaking, he lowered his head and drank tea.
For a moment, he didn't speak, and Li Xuewu didn't know how to explain it, so he became slightly cold.
However, it was Li Xuewu who took the initiative and said: "Wu Feng Hong intends to set up a food factory in the mainland, and we won the order."
"Food industry?"
Zhao Yufeng thought for a while and asked: "Is it the reprocessing of agricultural and sideline products or the processing of non-staple food?"
“They all have it, it’s a big category”
Li Xuewu paused and explained: "The drinks are mainly liquor, the non-staple food is mainly canned, and the multi-functional food processing plant handles the reprocessing of agricultural and sideline products."
"This is really...a huge plan."
Zhao Yufeng nodded and looked at Li Xuewu sincerely, waiting for his next words.
Li Xuewu did not hang on to him and said seriously: "The development of the food industry will inevitably include the pharmaceutical industry in the future. This is the inevitable development direction."
Saying this, he looked at Zhao Yufeng with a smile and said: "Otherwise we would not cooperate with the Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine to develop the Institute of Traditional Chinese Medicine on the mountain."
"Haha~"
Zhao Yufeng chuckled and nodded, then thought about it and said: "I thought of this, but I didn't expect it to be like this."
"Well, it's just that the time is not yet ripe."
Li Xuewu said seriously: "The current work of the Institute of Traditional Chinese Medicine is progressing slowly, and the basic construction process will inevitably take time. There is no way."
"I understand, I know this business better than you"
Zhao Yufeng nodded and agreed: "A veteran Chinese medicine practitioner may not be able to thoroughly study one prescription all his life, let alone study it in multiple directions."
"Alas~"
As he spoke, he sighed again and said, "I can't eat hot tofu in a hurry. I still have to wait."
"Well, I'm afraid that's the case"
Li Xuewu took a sip of tea, raised his head and looked at the other party and said: "If we cooperate with universities, or recruit special talents through channels to join the cooperation, it may be accelerated."
"I'll figure this out"
Zhao Yufeng frowned slightly and said: "We have already considered what you said, but the situation... you will understand even if I don't tell you."
After speaking, he pointed to the north and said: "That stall on the mountain is not easy either. At least it is a place to live and settle down. I don't dare to move easily."
"Yeah, I understand."
Li Xuewu nodded and said: "Your caution is justified. You cannot just look at the immediate interests."
"I didn't accept death~"
Zhao Yufeng smiled helplessly and explained: "You may not know the risks within our system, so I'm not asking for a favor from you."
He said softly and seriously: "Our hospital is already a bit stretched even if we find a reliable delivery team. Think about it."
"Yes, I understand"
Li Xuewu nodded, indicating that he understood what he meant.
Not to mention hospitals outside the capital, there are hospitals within the capital. During this period, and even for a long time to come, no one in the hospital can deliver babies. There are many cases of births that can suffocate mothers to death.
Just think about how ridiculous the life experience of the writer who was a dentist was.
Now ask a junior high school student to pull out your teeth with a vise. Do you dare to use it?
Zhao Yufeng said that he was not asking for favors, but his words were full of bitterness and hard work.
Li Xuewu couldn't help but remember this favor, so he gave the other party a guarantee today. He would not forget the Chinese Medicine Hospital's foreign trade orders in the future.
Not to mention that mother Liu Yin and sister-in-law were stubborn and refused to go to Gu Ning's unit to give birth, not to mention that they lived nearby and conveniently.
It's the same everywhere. Since you're here for relationships, as long as someone extends your hand, you have to remember their affection.
Li Xuewu was not afraid of owing the favor to those in the military hospital, and Gu Ning was even less afraid, but he just didn't know how to repay it.
Since Zhao Yufeng from the Traditional Chinese Medicine Hospital took the initiative to do the work, it would be more convenient to give birth here.
Firstly, there is no psychological pressure on his mother and sister-in-law, and secondly, he knows how to repay the favor.
After all, he and Zhao Yufeng both have a cooperative relationship with each other in their affairs. They take care of each other and everything comes out.
Zhao Yufeng is confident that he is definitely not asking for favors from Li Xuewu, but rather wants to make the relationship closer and more reliable.
With Li Xuewu's current background and abilities, this kid will soar sooner or later.
Even if there is no greater possibility in the future, the steel rolling mill still has huge energy in this three-thirds of an acre of land in Dongcheng.
What's more, Li Xuewu still has a position in the garrison and still has influence in the branch.
Leaving aside Li Xuewu, these sons of Li Shun are not ordinary characters.
The eldest son and daughter-in-law seem to have little ability now, they are just teachers.
But university teachers are a great starting point, whether they are in research or politics and education.
What is the level of Huaqing's principal, and what is the position of Huaqing's vice-principal? This starting point is definitely not something that ordinary people can compare with.
Li Xuecai, who is in the same class as his son, is the least scheming boy in the Li family, but he also has some real power.
Li Shun has been teaching him since he was a child. It is definitely not what Li Xuewu said. Zhao Xia is smart and Li Xuecai has to remember things three times.
It's okay to joke about the situation, but you'd be a fool if you believed it.
They are all capable people in the family, and there is no way to return the favor to him. He just wants to have a relationship.
I heard that Li Shun's little daughter has already gone to work. If Zhao Xia graduates in a few years, she will try to propose marriage. It will definitely be a good match.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Others say that Li Shun is honest and incompetent, but in Zhao Yufeng's opinion, he has great wisdom.
At least he is better than him at educating children.
The two talked for a while in the office and felt that it was almost time, so they walked downstairs together.
Zhao Yufeng wore a white coat and walked beside Li Xuewu inconspicuously, but that was to the eyes of Liu Yin and others.
No one in this hospital knew who Vice President Zhao was. He accompanied Li Xuewu to the delivery room. The director of the obstetrics department had already been waiting at the door.
"Dean Zhao, it went very smoothly."
"Giving birth?"
Zhao Yufeng was slightly stunned when he saw her outside, nodded and asked, "Have everything been arranged?"
“I arranged it myself”
The director of the obstetrics department also just came out of the delivery room, with a look of exhaustion on his face. Li Xuewu took the initiative to shake hands and say hello.
Zhao Yufeng briefly introduced the two of them, focusing on Li Shun's relationship, but did not say much about Li Xuewu's identity.
But even from Dean Zhao's attitude towards him and his title, the director of the obstetrics department could tell the clues.
Such a young division-level cadre sounds really scary!
Dr. Li is very quiet when he is in the work unit. He is usually honest and does his duty. He did not expect to have such a promising son.
The eldest son and eldest daughter-in-law are both university teachers. They all know that, but this is the first time they have heard that the second son is so powerful.
Li Xuewu smiled and thanked the other party again, saying that when his father Li Shun came back, he would formally thank him again.
The director of the obstetrics department was so clever. While leading them to the ward, he teased them with a smile and said thank you, but he wanted food for the full moon banquet.
They say that when you succeed, you will be surrounded by smiling faces, and this is true.
Ever since Li Xuewu made progress, he has rarely seen anyone yelling at him.
Even when we got into such a situation with Yu Daru and others, we didn't see the other party saying anything harsh.
Therefore, the deputy director level is the beginning of an official career, and everything below is a joke.
In the ward, mothers Liu Yin and Ji Yuxiu were busy working, while the eldest brother was squatting beside the bed, staring at the newborn baby in his swaddle.
Seeing Zhao Yufeng and the director of the obstetrics department coming, the doctor and head nurse in charge of the bed also walked in.
I knew this was a relationship household, but I didn't expect the relationship to be so strong. The delivery and postpartum wards arranged by Director Zhao personally did not count, and he visited me personally after the delivery.
This is really...a rare situation.
The director of the obstetrics department who delivered the baby was naturally familiar with Zhao Yafang's condition. He stood beside the hospital bed and looked at the mother, then gave a brief introduction to everyone in a soft voice.
After the introduction, with Zhao Yufeng's nod of approval, Liu Yin and Ji Yuxiu were given nursing instructions.
The head nurse took the initiative to answer the question and said that there is always someone taking care of her here, so there is no need to worry about postpartum care.
Even though it was Li Shun's workplace, the family could not help but be surprised and relieved to receive such a positive attitude.
Li Xuewen's eyes were already fixed on the child. Now he stood up to deal with Zhao Yufeng and others, but his eyes were still wandering on the child.
Li Xuewu took a look at the child while they were talking. He was small, wrinkled, and a little black, with some stains on the exposed head.
Zhao Yafang saw his eyes and nodded with a gentle smile. Li Xuewu saw this and also smiled and responded.
My sister-in-law is thanking herself. No matter how kind my father-in-law is at his workplace, he won't let the dean take the initiative to take care of him.
This family can be related to the hospital. To put it bluntly, he is the second brother-in-law.
But now she was so exhausted that she could only smile but could not speak.
Li Xuewu just glanced at the child and listened to the head nurse. He didn't say what he was grateful for, but expressed his gratitude to everyone in his father's name.
At this time, Han Jiankun, who had been waiting outside the door, walked in with several paper bags in his hand.
Li Xuewu introduced with a smile: "I will tell you my thanks when my dad comes back tomorrow. I will take the candy and cigarettes first. This is our family's gratitude."
"You're welcome~"
He took the paper bags that had been wrapped long ago from Han Jiankun and delivered them to everyone in the room.
Of course the director of the obstetrics department, the head nurse and others did not dare to answer. They said polite words but looked at Zhao Yufeng.
Zhao Yufeng listened to Li Xuewu's sincere words and took the initiative to take the bag. He opened it and saw that it was indeed wedding candies and wedding cigarettes.
The difference is that it requires half a catty of candy and two packs of cigarettes, but it is Chinese and authentic.
This gift was neither too much nor too little, and it just hit everyone's bottom line.
Otherwise, the second son of the Li family would be able to make a name for himself in Dongcheng. Even Gu Haitao would be willing to recruit him as his son-in-law. Once he saw this, he really had some tricks up his sleeve.
Seeing Zhao Yufeng accept the gift, the director of obstetrics, bedside doctor, head nurse and others also accepted it.
Li Xuewu asked Han Jiankun to send the remaining gifts to the office, and also asked several people in the room to help him express his hard work to those he didn't see.
Look at what is said, look at what is done!
When I saw the man coming in with many bags in his hands, I thought they would be distributed among everyone in the room, so I put them away.
Unexpectedly, no matter how many people participated in the delivery, the gifts would be superfluous, but sending them all to the office was a hard work.
It gave people some dignity and face, and it paid off what I just wanted to do by asking Li Shun to express his gratitude in person.
Otherwise, I would say that he is the director of the department. If he can get to this position, there is nothing wrong with him.
Some people had previously murmured in their hearts that Li Shun's eldest son was a bit dull or unsophisticated.
They had not thought about getting any gifts, let alone receiving such a dignified thank you in front of the leader.
It's just that they were all sent to the ward. Mother and son are safe and going well. It's still your dad's workplace. Please say something nice.
People are like this, even if it is a job that is taken for granted, they also require an unexpected joy that makes them feel at ease.
It's fine now. Everyone was polite and weighed the bag in their hands. Just looking at Dean Zhao's slightly surprised eyes, he knew that the gift in his hand was not "light".
After everyone was sent away, Li Xuewu did not enter the ward to disturb his sister-in-law again.
Seeing her mother and Ji Yuxiu cleaning up the ward, she told her elder brother and left.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Ji Yuxiu cannot be used as a caregiver, she has to go to work, and her mother cannot do it alone.
Even adding a clumsy elder brother would be in vain, as long as he doesn't cause any trouble, he is just a master of the house.
So after coming out of the hospital, Li Xuewu asked Han Jiankun to go back to the compound first.
It was a coincidence that just as the command vehicle stopped at the gate, Li Xue was seen hurriedly coming out of the yard with a bag in hand.
"Second brother?"
"Well, what are you doing?"
Li Xuewu gave her a funny look. Li Xue was most afraid of the cold, so she covered her face tightly with her scarf, leaving her eyes exposed.
"I just came back!"
Li Xue said with some complaints: "Deputy Director Jing is working overtime. There will be a meeting tomorrow on the annexation case, and we have to come up with a plan tonight!"
Saying this, he shook the pocket in his hand and asked, "Did sister-in-law give birth? What did she give birth to?"
"Haha, what happened?!"
Li Xuewu chuckled and tapped her forehead, teasing her: "I gave birth to a Sun Wukong!"
"Oh~ you're teasing me again!"
Li Xue shook off his big hand reluctantly and asked curiously: "Is it a boy?"
She is smart enough to know that Sun Wukong is a boy, and she has already guessed it now.
Li Xuewu nodded with a smile and said, "You have a nephew."
"Really!"
Li Xue's face instantly glowed with excitement. At this moment, she couldn't stand on her feet and said she was going to the hospital.
“From Mahakala!”
Li Xuewu grabbed her scarf and said angrily: "I told you that you are not allowed to walk alone at night after dark. I don't remember it, right?"
After saying that, he opened the car door and motioned for her to get in the car.
Only then did Li Xue realize that her second brother asked the driver to take her there.
"Actually it's not that far, just a few steps around the corner..."
She wanted to explain something more, but it was obvious that the second brother's eyes became serious and he stuffed the rest of the words back into his stomach.
She was not allowed to walk at night, not just her, but all the women in the family, and even the men.
Even the boys at the recycling bin know that they must go home before dark.
In these days and months, things are not peaceful even in the city. If someone is really killed and thrown into a ditch, it is normal for them not to be found for ten and a half months.
Today's Forty-Nine Cities do not have a population of 20 million, let alone overcrowding.
There are always people saying that there was a murder somewhere, or that a girl was in trouble somewhere, but they are all being kept secret anyway.
Ji Yuxiu rides a donkey to and from get off work, which is the hip in their workplace. Someone gives her a ride, or she rides a bicycle with a gun on her waist.
This area of Nanluogu Lane is considered a restricted area for stubborn masters and brats alike.
We all know how dangerous this place is. Last year, quite a few people lost their heads due to some things.
The new stubborn master may not know who Li Xuewu is, but the veterans have taught them that Li Ershen is really the type who kills without repaying his life.
Don't ask who Li Ershen is. As long as you see a big scar on his face, he is quite tall and has a strong build, don't mess with him. Be careful of getting shot.
It can be said that Li Xuewu is no longer in the world, but his legend still exists in the world.
He asked Han Jiankun to see Li Xue off, and he stepped into the courtyard gate.
The days are short in winter, but the time to get off work is basically the same, so meals in the courtyard are as punctual as ever.
By the time he came back, the food in the courtyard had long been finished, and the concierge was on duty.
Maybe they were playing cards, but Li Xuewu had been talking at the door for a while. When he came in, there was only a room full of people staring at each other, no playing cards, and no noise.
They really didn't know that Li Xuewu would be back at this time. If he hadn't blocked the gate, these boys would have run away.
Li Xuewu didn't care about catching bettors, but these boys felt scared when they saw him, especially the one from Mahakala, whose eyes were so scarred that they trembled all over.
Seeing seven or eight boys sitting in the room without saying a word, Li Xuewu only found it funny.
I glanced at them and walked straight into the courtyard. The lamps were lit in the back room and the boys were reading.
He did not go to the west room, but passed through the hanging flower door and took a look at his home.
Seeing the old lady sitting alone on the kang smoking a pipe, she entered the house.
"Why are you back?"
"Just came back from the hospital"
Li Xuewu smiled and touched the head of the kang, and sat next to the edge of the kang.
"Have you had dinner?"
"Don't worry about it, eat with the other party"
The old lady smiled, looked at Li Xuewu, and asked: "Are they good at Avon?"
"Okay! It's okay~"
Li Xuewu smiled and said: "Congratulations to you on your great-grandson!"
"Hahaha~ Okay!"
The old lady was obviously a little nervous. She was holding the pipe stem with her fingers. Now she let go and smiled.
Li Xuewu went down to the ground and poured a cup of hot water for her, put it on the kang, and warned her: "The weather is dry in winter, and if you smoke and cough, drink more water."
"Okay, I got it"
The old lady looked at her grandson with a smile and said: "In a few days, you will also be a father. I am so happy, but it is a double happiness."
"That's what you said"
Li Xuewu nodded with a smile and said: "You will be annoyed by then. The child will be on the bed, and you will not be able to see it."
"That's great!"
The old lady smiled and said: "The descendants are prosperous and there are more people coming in. This is a great joy. I am not angry, I am smiling!"
"Just wait, I'm being tough now."
Li Xuewu teased her and joked a little, and then explained: "Li Xue met her when she was going out. I asked the car to take her to the hospital."
"Yeah, got it"
The old lady nodded and said, "I told you, it's not that far away, but I'm not at ease, so I'm just talking about it."
"No, you can't take the night road no matter how far you go."
Li Xuewu emphasized, and then said: "My sister-in-law has given birth and has to stay in the hospital for three or two days. Yuxiu and Li Xue have to go to work. My mother can't handle it by herself, so I have to find someone to help."
"Where's Xuewen?"
The old lady was obviously taken aback, and then she thought of the meaning of Li Xuewu's words, which meant outsiders like Qin Jingru, not family members.
Whether it is Yu Li or Qin Jingru, the old lady has long been accustomed to her grandson's lifestyle and personality.
He is not ambiguous when he should spend money, he is not stingy when he should be generous, he is capable and organized, and it can be said that the second grandson is thoughtful.
It only takes three or two days to ask someone for help. Whether it is money or gifts, any more or less is not appropriate.
She was vague and asked: "How about I go and don't bother me?"
"Don't feel bad about money, I want to feel bad about you!"
Li Xuewu smiled and held the old lady's hand and said softly: "It's just three or two days. My mother can't hold on alone, especially with children."
"Are you looking for someone from the courtyard?"
The old lady has a clear mind, and after her grandson finished speaking, she already knew what he meant.
Asking for help at this time also has the meaning of a little bourgeois tail. Most people will not take risks easily.
Even though the old lady doesn't go out usually, you can understand a lot.
Li Xuewu didn't hide anything. He pointed to the backyard and said, "I want to find an aunt, but I'm afraid that my family won't be able to take care of her. I can only ask Grandma Qin Huairu for help. I'll go and ask."
The old lady raised her head slightly, nodded and said, "That's what I mean. You have to be at ease and you can only find her if you have control."
"Don't tell me what to give."
Li Xuewu patted the old lady's hand gently and said, "I just said it was you who asked me to find her, which is a way of saving face."
"I'll give you ten yuan, and you'll be able to help take care of me until you're discharged from the hospital. My mother is left to work hard. She still has time to come back to cook and make up for my sister-in-law. Don't worry."
"Yeah, just say what I said and ask her for help."
The old lady nodded and said: "She is cruel in her words, has a good heart, has a job, and lives in the same hospital, so go ahead."
"Okay, let me ask first."
Li Xuewu stood up, walked out of the room, and said to the old lady: "I have something to say, I will talk to you again."
With that said, he went out, greeted the people in the courtyard, and introduced Zhao Yafang's situation and the happy news that the Li family had their eldest son and grandson.
While talking, I passed the second door and saw the lights of Jia's house were on. I walked over and said hello when I was approaching the door: "Sister Qin, are you at home?"
"Hey, here we come."
Qin Huairu recognized Li Xuewu's voice, stood up and saw his figure from the window, and hurriedly opened the door curtain.
"Hey! Why are you here? Is Avon alive? I heard about it when I came back."
She was very quick-tongued and asked a lot of questions like a machine gun. She was talking when Li Xuewu entered the room.
The three of them were doing homework at the dinner table. When they saw Li Xuewu coming in, they all greeted him in surprise.
Li Xuewu smiled and said hello to Jia Zhang who came out of the back room, then pinched Banggan's big fat face and responded to the three children's greetings.
"Don't be busy, I'm not thirsty"
Seeing Qin Huairu want to pour him water, she quickly waved her hand to refuse, and she obeyed and sat down at the dining table.
"I just got back from settling in with the hospital. Mother and son are safe and going well."
"What a good thing!"
Qin Huairu said with a smile: "I'm just talking about the big belly in Avon. How is the child? How much does it weigh?"
"I haven't even had a chance to ask yet."
Li Xuewu smiled, glanced at Jia Zhang who was standing aside, and said: "Isn't this? I'm in a hurry. I have never experienced this, and my brother is not prepared."
What this means is that the eldest brother Xuewen did not take his mother-in-law over, but to be honest, it would be inconvenient for the whole family there if the mother-in-law did.
This was a pretext. After saying this, Li Xuewu went straight to the point: "The old lady told me to ask Aunt Zhang to help take care of her."
