Chapter 108 You can’t just calm down

When the Jia family had a child, the whole courtyard was naturally noisy. Jia and Zhang always talked about how their eldest grandson was doing to everyone they met, as if they were afraid that others wouldn't know.

Jia Dongxu was also smiling brightly. He would also be in a daze from time to time while working, and he would laugh endlessly.

In the past two days, Mrs. Jia and Zhang had been wandering around outside Yang Xiaotao's yard, and even showed off loudly, just to spite Yang Xiaotao.

Regarding this, Yang Xiaotao should eat and sleep, and should not be angry with her at all.

Of course, Jia Zhang's targets are also Uncle Chen's house, Xu Damao's house, and others who are not pleasing to the eye, and they all come to visit them.

This caused people in the yard to gossip, and many people avoided the Jia family and did not want to deal with them.

Fortunately, the happy time in the Jia family did not last long. People in the courtyard discovered that Jia Zhang, who was usually calm and leisurely in the courtyard, began to become anxious and even had dark circles under her eyes.

When a few close friends asked about it, they immediately knew what was going on.

It turned out that Qin Huairu gave birth to her first child and didn't have much milk, and Banggeng was a very good eater. She would get into trouble when she didn't have enough to eat, which made the Jia family anxious.

In order to let Qin Huairu have milk, Jia Zhang didn't care about anything else. She just bought pig's trotters and stewed chicken.

During the three days that Qin Huairu was in the hospital, she lived like a princess.

In the past three days, Jia Zhang and Jia Dongxu were waiting around the bedside during the day. The aunt would bring something from time to time, and she had gained weight.

For the sake of Qin Huairu's milk, for fear of starving her eldest grandson, Jia Zhang's private money shrank sharply, leaving Qin Huairu to eat to her heart's content.

But even so, Qin Huairu still didn't have much milk, and the baby stopped eating after a while. He was so hungry that he howled in the throat, and his voice could be heard throughout the hospital.

In the past, Mrs. Jia Zhang would happily say, "If a child has a loud voice, he must be energetic."

But now, hearing the cry scared her.

The young Jia Gen was originally born prematurely and has a small body. If he doesn't have enough to eat, what should he do if something happens?

The anxious Jia Zhang and Jia Dongxu could only hope that the first man and others could find milk powder and ask for some malted milk again.

It’s just that in this day and age, eating is a problem. Where can I easily find milk powder for my children?

The first man searched for connections and finally found someone who could get milk powder on the black market through Deputy Factory Director Li.

However, the price is extremely expensive. If you don't have a milk powder coupon, a can will cost five yuan.

The elder had no choice but to leave the decision to the Jia family. When he heard about the extremely expensive milk powder, Jia Zhang also hesitated, but Jia Dongxu felt sorry for his son, so he gritted his teeth and bought it.

Finally, for the sake of her eldest grandson, Jia Zhang also risked her life and bought milk powder.

However, classmate Jia Gen, who was the future pillar of the Jia family, drank freely, drank to sleep, and peeed. A can of milk powder was consumed in less than three days, and then continued to cause trouble.

These days, milk powder does not come in 800-900 grams, but in small cans. It only costs 200-300 grams, seven or eight spoons at a time, 500-600 grams per meal, and sometimes a meal is added. How can such a small amount of milk powder be enough?

for drink?

In this way, by the time the Jia family carried mother and son back to the courtyard, a week had passed and Jia Gen's child had also drank two cans of milk powder.

The Jia family also began to feel the pressure of funds.

In the end, I ran out of money and couldn't buy it anymore. Even with the help of my uncle, I only bought two cans.

But the Jia family didn't dare to let Banggeng drink, so Jia and Zhang could only feed her with millet porridge and milk powder.

However, as the successor of White-Eyed Wolf, Jia Geng didn't give any face to him at all. When he tasted it was not the original taste, he immediately stopped drinking and started to cry at the top of his lungs.

The children don't eat, which makes the adults very sad.

There is no choice but to change it again.

Jia Zhang was also in a difficult situation. She didn't dare to hit such a small child and refused to listen to reason. She could only vent her anger on Qin Huairu.

She was scolded every day, and a pair of lanterns were not too small, so why didn’t she have any milk?

Qin Huairu was also uncomfortable, she didn't know it would be like this?

I thought that with my figure, raising a child would not be a problem, but who knew that I turned out to be such a good-looking person? It’s really embarrassing for me to tell you.

Qin Huairu had just had two good days and wanted to continue enjoying it for a few more days when Mrs. Jia Zhang drove her out of bed to take care of the child.

Qin Huairu had no choice but to hold on and take care of the child.

However, since she has a strong body and Jia Gong is thin, there was no problem for a while.

Just seeing her son not having enough to eat every day made her, a mother, anxious.

Every day the yard is filled with the sound of children crying, and sometimes they are woken up in the middle of the night. The good-tempered ones can understand, but the bad-tempered ones start scolding them in the yard on the spot.

They are all factory workers and they do physical work. If they don't get enough rest or have an accident, they will be the backbone of the family.

Faced with the anger of the crowd, Mrs. Jia Zhang did not dare to stand up. The last time she committed public outrage and was beaten by the third uncle, she could only ask the first uncle to suppress it.

The Jia family also suffered greatly. Their house only had one room, and although a curtain was drawn in the middle to divide it into two rooms, after having this child, it became even more crowded. When one side cries, the other side can't sleep.

Even dead people can be woken up.

The dark circles under Jia Zhang's eyes these past few days were caused by her children being noisy at night. Jia Dongxu was also distracted when he went to work, as if he hadn't woken up. The workpiece he worked on was a pile of scraps, and the team leader was so angry that he jumped up and down.

As for Qin Huairu, she couldn't eat well, couldn't sleep well, and had to worry about her son's nutrition. Under multiple pressures, her face, which had just gained weight, lost weight again within a week, her eyes were red with bloodshot eyes, and her face looked haggard.

After entering mid-October, it is already cold in Sijiu City and it is necessary to wear long sleeves.

The night became more deserted. Yang Xiaotao went out to put water in the vegetable garden and prepared to go home.

At this time, the children's cries and adults' noises came again from Jia's house.

Before he could return to the house, he saw a figure running out of Jia's house and rushing straight to the first uncle Yi Zhonghai's house.

"Jia Zhang's family?"

"This old godly woman!"

As soon as Yang Xiaotao saw the short and stubby figure, he knew it was Jia Zhang, but he couldn't figure out why he was looking for Yi Zhonghai so late. "Isn't it because I don't have money to buy milk powder, haha."

The corner of Yang Xiaotao's mouth curled up, and he admired the Jia family.

How can any child drink milk powder these days?

You must know that milk powder is not available in China. All the drinks on the market are imported. Can it be cheaper?

When children are born in rural areas, they are fed corn porridge, and at most they drink millet porridge. There are not many people like the Jia family who make their own rice porridge.

Yang Xiaotao returned to the house, but Jia Zhang complained about her bitterness at Yi Zhonghai's house.

It wasn't until midnight that Yi Zhonghai was so sleepy that he spoke vaguely and asked for her tomorrow, and then sent Jia Zhang back.

During the weekend, Yang Xiaotao and Uncle Chen made an appointment to go fishing in the West Sea. These days, Yang Xiaotao wants to save up his credits to upgrade his cooking skills. By then, he should have a lot of gains in his second-level cooking skills.

Of course, fishing skills can also be upgraded to level three. Not to mention the fish caught, the monthly gifts are also a big income.

Therefore, fishing subsidy "food" has become an important source of supplies, which can also stop some people's mouths.

When he got up in the morning, Yang Xiaotao took the gold fishing rod and went out with Uncle Chen. Before he could walk out of the courtyard, he was stopped by Yi Zhonghai.

"Lao Chen, Xiao Tao, please wait a moment!"

Yi Zhonghai stopped the two of them and came to them with dark circles under his eyes. It was obvious that he had not slept well last night.

Last night, he was woken up by Mrs. Jia Zhang while he was sleeping. Then he complained, and finally made a request, which was a bit difficult for him as an uncle.

After thinking about it for most of the night, he finally couldn't get over it. He had to help with the Jia family's affairs, otherwise it would ruin the relationship. Didn't the previous investment go in vain?

Therefore, after thinking about it, the solution to this matter still has to fall on Yang Xiaotao.

There is no way, who allows him to be the only single person in the courtyard and occupy two houses?

However, he also knew the relationship between Yang Xiaotao and the Jia family. It would be an understatement to say that they would never interact with each other until death. Yang Xiaotao would not interfere with anyone who had the slightest relationship with the Jia family.

Therefore, this matter needs to be detoured.

"Master, you got up so early, what's wrong?"

Yang Xiaotao was carrying a bamboo basket, indicating that if he had anything to say quickly.

Uncle Chen stood aside and said nothing, but he didn't look good either.

Yi Zhonghai said quickly as he saw people gradually appearing in the yard.

"Xiao Tao, there is indeed something small."

"No, your house has two rooms. I want Shazhu to live with you for a few days."

"In this way, Silly Zhu frees up the house and lets Qin Huairu take the child in, which also saves the child from crying at night and disturbing everyone's sleep!"

Yi Zhonghai said, as if he did not forget to carry with him the will of everyone in the courtyard and consider it for everyone.

"Master, this matter was brought up by the Jia family."

Yang Xiaotao remembered seeing Jia Zhang last night, and there was no need to think that it must have been the old witch's idea.

Oh, I was afraid that I wouldn't let them live in, so I asked Silly Zhu to come over. The house he vacated was just for their Jia family to use. I guess based on the old woman's wishful thinking, it would be the year of the monkey and the moon to pay back the other after using it.

"No, I'm thinking about the courtyard."

"Look, the Jia family only has one room. They usually eat, drink, poop and sleep together. How can children grow up in such an environment?"

"Can you stop making a fuss?"
