Siheyuan: I am the seventh uncle of Banggen - Page 174
"You're giving a name. What name can you give to a child without even a little sesame oil in his stomach?" Zhang Cuihua came in to serve the dumpling soup and just happened to hear Jia Dongxu was going to name He Yuzhu's child.
"Mom, you can't say that. Huaihua is a very good name. I've thought about it. If Huairu gives birth to another son, we will call him Zhengzheng, okay? My next generation will be Zheng," said Jia Dongxu.
"Serious?" Zhang Cuihua asked.
"Yes, is this name loud and clear? Does it sound nice?" Jia Dongxu said with a proud look on his face.
"You bastard, I told you to get drunk and talk nonsense." Zhang Cuihua did not answer her son, but took action directly and beat Jia Dongxu violently.
Zhang Dabiao had just returned to the house when he heard the noise and came out again, "What's going on? Why is there so much trouble every day?"
"Da Biao, Dongxu gave his next son a resounding name, and my eldest sister beat him up after hearing it," said He Yuzhu.
"What's the name that makes sister so angry?" Zhang Dabao asked.
"Dongxu said to call me Zhengjing. I think this name is not bad. Why should I get beaten?" He Yuzhu was a little confused.
"Don't you know your last name? You call me Jia Zhengjing? I want to beat you up." Zhang Dabao was so angry that he hit Jia Dongxu twice.
"Jia Zhengjing, Jia Zhengjing" He Yuzhu was still confused.
"Is this a person's name? Do you think this is a person's name?" Zhang Cuihua asked her son while beating him.
"Mom, this one is not suitable. We can change it. How about Zhengming? Is this one okay?" Jia Dongxu said.
"I told you to pick a random name, and Jia Zhengming? Have you really forgotten your last name, you bastard?" Zhang Cuihua didn't let go until she was tired of beating him, and she threatened Jia Dongxu not to name the child because he was uneducated and brainless.
Zhang Cuihua acted out a story of a mother raising her children. Colleagues and neighbors in the courtyard also knew that Xu Damao had given birth to twin sons. Most people were envious, and a few were jealous.
Yan Bugui was a little jealous. He thought of his eldest son Yan Jiecheng in the northwest. If his son had not been arrested, he might have been married and had twin grandsons for him.
"What do you think happened to Jie Cheng? I've been thinking about him a lot these days?" Yan Bugui asked Yang Ruihua.
"What can I do? It's good enough to be alive there," said Yang Ruihua.
"Why don't he write a letter?" Yan Bugui asked again.
Yang Ruihua had no way of knowing the answer, so the only way he could answer Yan Bugui was to remain silent.
Yan Jiecheng did not write back, and he could not write back, because he was overwhelmed on the first day after arriving in the Northwest, with the full wind and sand and endless work to do. On the second day, he discovered a problem through observation, that is, the discipline here was not strict at all, and almost no one cared. So the smart Yan Jiecheng came up with another bold idea, which was to escape from here.
With this idea in mind, he began to work towards it. One noon, he stole food from his cellmate and set out on the road to escape alone.
The endless Gobi Desert, the endless yellow sand, and the countless wolves have caused countless heroes to fall in this Gobi Desert. Yan Jieben could not be called a hero, so he soon died and disappeared in the vast Gobi Desert. Naturally, he could not write letters to his parents at home.
The next day, Jia Dongxu woke up and felt pain all over his body. "Mom, did I fall yesterday? Why does my body hurt so much?" Jia Dongxu asked his mother while eating breakfast.
"Have you forgotten all the good things you did yesterday?" Zhang Cuihua asked her son.
"I didn't do anything. It hurt too much. My aunt has some medicinal wine and asked her to rub the pillar a little more," said Jia Dongxu.
"Jia Dongxu, I tell you, no matter how many children our family has in the future, you are not allowed to name them, do you understand?" Zhang Cuihua put down the bowl and said to her son seriously.
"No, I won't. And you're not satisfied with what I gave you," said Jia Dongxu.
"You also know that the name you gave is not good, why do you still want to give your brother a serious name?" Banggeng was unhappy and questioned Jia Dongxu.
"What does it have to do with you whether I give it a name or not? Isn't the name Zhengjing good? You are of the Zheng generation. If you have a younger brother, you should bring the older generation with you. Otherwise, when we return to Jiajia Village, others won't know what to call us," said Jia Dongxu.

"Dad, what's our last name?" Banggeng asked Jia Dongxu.
"Are you stupid? Our surname is Jia, Xibejia," Jia Dongxu said loudly.
"Our surname is Jia, but you gave your child a name like Jia Zhengjing? Is that a person's name? My grandmother disagreed, so you changed it to Jia Zhengming. What were you thinking? Are you afraid that your child will be laughed at by others?" Bang Geng said angrily.
"Aren't the names Jia Zhengjing and Jia Zhengming good?" Jia Dongxu smiled awkwardly.
"If it's not good, then it's not good. Why are you angry? I don't care." Jia Dongxu saw that his mother put down the bowl and her face looked very unhappy, so he quickly changed his words.
"You should drink less alcohol in the future. You don't know how to drink in moderation, but you like drinking so much. This is a disease, don't you know?" Zhang Cuihua said to her son.
"I don't like drinking at all. It was Zhuzi who persuaded me to drink. He is my uncle now, and it would be inappropriate for me to not listen to him. So I drank one more glass. If he asks me to drink again, I will directly refuse him," said Jia Dongxu.
"If you stop drinking, dogs will stop eating shit," Zhang Cuihua added.
Qin Huairu and Qin Jingru burst out laughing.
"Grandma, we are eating. What you said is so disgusting," said Banggeng.
"Banggeng, have you taken the exam? How did you do?" Jia Dongxu suddenly remembered that it was almost the New Year and Banggeng and his classmates should be taking their final exams soon.
"I took the exam, but the results haven't come out yet. I can get the results in two days. I feel I can get a certificate," said Bang Geng.
"You got a certificate of honor? Your father has won certificates of honor after studying for six years." Jia Dongxu simply did not believe in his son's ability.
"What's wrong with me getting a certificate? I have good grades. I study very hard in school and my teachers often praise me," said Bang Geng.
"You have good grades? I don't believe it. You are pretty good at fighting and you are good at using various tactics. The third uncle told us," said Jia Dongxu.
"Dongxu, get out of here when you're full. Isn't it possible that your child is better than you? Which child nowadays is like you? You are incapable of anything and you eat everything without leaving any leftovers. How dare you say that? Get out." Zhang Cuihua was dissatisfied when she heard her son's words. Who would still like her son when she had a grandson?
"You can just lie to your grandma..." Jia Dongxu wanted to say something, but Zhang Cuihua had already stood up. He was so scared that he ran out quickly.
"Mom, we are on vacation now. I can take care of my sister for you and my aunt," said Bang Geng.
"Look how sensible Banggeng is. He is much better than that bastard Jia Dongxu. He knows how to feel sorry for his mother, but Jia Dongxu doesn't know that," Zhang Cuihua said to Qin Huairu and Qin Jingru.
Qin Huairu and Qin Jingru naturally couldn't answer this kind of question, so they could only smile.
"Huaihua is too young, you can take care of Xiaodang," Qin Huairu said to her son.
"No problem, I'll take Xiaodang to play games later," Banggeng agreed to his mother immediately.
Zhang Dabao got up early today because Lou Xiao'e gave birth to twins. He promised Xu Damao that he would provide meat, fish and other things for the banquet, so he had to go out. It was impossible for so many things to appear out of thin air at home.
"Da Biao, I want to go back to Zhangjia Village. My elder brother passed away and I didn't go back. I always feel bad. I have dreamed about him every day these days." Zhang Da Biao hadn't left the house yet when Zhang Lianhua pushed the door open and came in.
"What are you dreaming about, Zhang Dasong, that bastard? Are you still pregnant? You will be testing the machine at the factory tomorrow and go back the day after tomorrow. I will take you back," said Zhang Dabao.
"We'll go the day after tomorrow. Huairu and Jingru also want to go back to Qinjiagou. Let's go together. The sophora japonica flowers are still small and can't stand the wind. You can see them off then," said Zhang Lianhua.
"Okay, I'll ask them what to bring later. I have a lot of friends so I can get it," Zhang Dabao agreed.
After going out, he walked around the street for a long time and went to Lou's house to deliver forty or fifty kilograms of meat, two boxes of frozen hairtail, twenty or thirty kilograms of eggs, and a dozen pig's trotters. The pig's trotters were prepared for Lou Xiao'e because eating them can help produce milk.
In addition, he took out five or six kilograms of tomatoes, five or six kilograms of peppers, and five or six kilograms of leeks from the space. These things were more expensive than meat. Lou Weihua used to be a super rich man, so of course he knew that there were fresh vegetables in winter, but he was surprised that Zhang Dabao sent so many at once, and felt that this person was unfathomable.
There were many people in the Lou family, so Zhang Dabao couldn't go to see Lou Xiao'e and the children. He just put down his things and left. When he returned to the yard, he put down more than ten pounds of meat and a sack of potatoes for the Xu family.
Xu Damao's parents returned to Courtyard 95 and began to tidy up the room. Before the Spring Festival, Lou Xiao'e and her son would come back, because the custom here is that married daughters cannot spend the Spring Festival at their parents' home. So the kang must be checked to see if there is any smoke. Lou Xiao'e gave birth to two boys at once, which made Xu Fugui and his wife very excited.
Seeing Zhang Dabiao send so many things, Xu's mother thanked him again and again. She knew how difficult it was to get supplies now. Now that she had a grandson, she and Xu Fugui wanted to show off. As a result, they went to the black market and found no meat at all, and not many eggs. If someone wanted to sell them, someone would buy them immediately. There was no fine grain for sale, and only one and a half coarse grains were sold, and the quantity was not large.
Qin Jingru is also a hardworking person. Now that Banggeng is taking care of Xiaodang, she saw a lot of weeds in the greenhouse, so she said something to Qin Huairu and went to the greenhouse to pull the weeds. The grass was fresh and was used to feed the geese, so Banggeng and others followed her to the cross-yard.
Zhang Dabao came to Jia's house, and Qin Huairu was feeding Huaihua.
"My second sister just said that you and Jingru also want to go back to your parents' home. Let's go early the day after tomorrow and come back after lunch. It's too cold in the village, and it will be troublesome if the child catches a cold," said Zhang Dabao.
Qin Huairu nodded. The kang in the room was a little hot. No one knew what she was thinking. Her face gradually turned red. Her two big watery eyes raised her head slightly and just looked at Zhang Dabao.
"I'll go close the door." Zhang Dabao understood what was going on as soon as he saw Qin Huairu's expression. He closed the door and started playing the cart game with Qin Huairu.
Due to the tight time and heavy task, we drove very fast and it was very exciting. After more than ten minutes, the car arrived at the destination.
"I'll come to see you when I have time, and I'll prepare things for you to take home." Zhang Dabao patted Qin Huairu on the back, then opened the door, freshened the air in the room, looked around to see that there was no one around, and left the house.
It's so exciting. As a cultivator, you should do whatever you want. If you have a lot of skills, but you are timid in the world, what kind of Tao are you cultivating? Zhang Dasong's death made Zhang Dabiao understand this truth.
I rested at home until noon, then went to my own greenhouse to pick some ripe tomatoes and made a pot of tomato and egg soup, which I ate with Banggeng, Niu Xiaozheng, Yan Jiedi, Qin Jingru and Qin Huairu. Each child had three bowls of soup and two steamed buns.

"It's so delicious, Uncle Seventh. This greenhouse is so magical. Why is it so warm inside?" asked Bang Geng.
"You don't even know this. Didn't you see that he was covered with a quilt?" Yan Jiedi said.
"But is it covered during the day? It is only covered at night?" Banggeng discovered the problem.
"With your current knowledge, this question is not easy to understand. When you learn physics in junior high school, you will understand it. It involves light and heat. You don't learn these things in elementary school," Zhang Dabao explained.
"So is it this knowledge that winter is very cold and summer is very hot?" Banggeng asked again.
"This is the knowledge of geography, which is also what you have to learn in junior high school. You and Xiaozheng don't know many words now. I can bring you some books by this time next year." Zhang Dabao was particularly pleased to see that Banggeng was now full of curiosity. A thief saint joke should not appear, and instead he got a school-loving and motivated Banggeng.
Children who are motivated and willing to make progress are always liked by others, so after lunch, Zhang Dabao went home and took some apples and gave one to everyone, both adults and children, including Xiaodang.
"Eat it. This is a red banana apple. It's very fragrant, but not very sweet," Zhang Dabao said to the group.
"Such a big apple? So fragrant." Qin Jingru had obviously never seen an apple bigger than an adult's head.
"This kind of fruit is easy for children to digest. Look, Xiaodang is not polite and just bites it open." Zhang Dabao pointed at Xiaodang who was eating an apple. She was holding an apple slightly smaller than her head in her hands and eating it more vigorously.
"No, I'm too full. Let's eat later." Qin Huairu put the apple on the bedside.
"Mom, put it away even if you don't want to eat it. When my dad comes home, he eats everything, regardless of whether it's his or not." Banggeng quickly instructed his mother.
"It seems that your father wanted to eat our moon eggs, and you found out?" Zhang Dabia said with a smile.
"I got up a long time ago. In winter, geese eat a lot and lay few eggs. How could my father still want to eat them? The key is that he doesn't give me money. He always wants to owe me money and never pays it back," said Bang Geng.
"Your father is so dishonest. He did a good job. Take a rest. It's cold now. Don't run around in the yard all the time. You'll easily catch a cold." Zhang Dabao touched Banggeng's fat face and went out. After he left, the children also went home. Only the Qin sisters, Xiaodang and Huaihua were left in the room.
"Jingru, my seventh uncle just came over and said that she will send us back the day after tomorrow. She has prepared some things to take us home," Qin Huairu said.
"That's so embarrassing. You are a relative, and I am your relative." Qin Jingru said.
"Seventh Uncle said that this is a reward for your careful care of the greenhouse. Xiaodang, don't eat it. It's not good to eat too much. Put it in the house and eat it in the afternoon." Qin Huairu saw that her daughter was still eating the apple, so she took the apple from Xiaodang's hand.
"Xiaodang, let's go to sleep and eat after you wake up. Auntie will let you eat this apple too." Qin Jingru saw that Xiaodang was unhappy and seemed to want to cry, so she carried her out.
Zhang Dabao did not go out again today and rested at home for the whole afternoon.
Today is the day when the new equipment of the Red Star Steel Rolling Mill is ignited. The entire factory area has been cleaned up and the inside of the new workshop is spotless.
At 9:18 in the morning, the two main leaders of the Ministry of Machinery Industry, Minister Tang and Deputy Minister Shi, started the machine, which was met with thunderous applause. The leaders on the scene gave enthusiastic speeches and expressed higher expectations for the new workshop and new equipment.
At 15: in the morning, the first batch of molten steel came out and was poured onto the continuous casting machine. A few minutes later, steel billets with a diameter of cm were produced, and then entered the next process. Finally, the steel bars were pulled out.
