Siheyuan: Big City, Small Love

Chapter 629: Weekend with Wu'er

After returning to the courtyard, Wu'er couldn't wait to run to Sha Zhu's house.

Xiaoyangzi learned from He Lai that he did not lie to her. The class was indeed like this and there was a pile of homework after school.

From then on, Wu'er never mentioned going to school again, but she went to the steel mill more and more often.

The little devil was very clever and cunning. He competed with He Lai in wits and courage every day. Knowing that He Lai was not easy to fool, he clamored to go to Yu Shui, or Sha Zhu, or He Daqing.

She knew that these people would definitely be easier to talk to than He Lai and would take what she said more seriously, and that was indeed the case.

So even though Wu'er's freedom was still restricted, at least her range of activities was much larger than when she was in Helai. She played with the children from Sha Zhu and Xu Damao's families all day long, and she was so happy.

Sometimes Wen'er would go to the steel rolling mill to play, but he would always be taken care of by Yu Shui because Wu Juan was worried about leaving him with others.

This weekend, Wu'er insisted on following He Lai. She wanted to see where her good brother went every time he went out to play.

He Lai did not refuse. He first took Wu'er to a state-owned store and bought several kilograms of milk candy, as well as some daily necessities such as socks and gloves, and then went to the orphanage.

When Wu'er saw so many children in the orphanage, she was immediately overjoyed. She rushed in with a bag of candy and played with them.

"Comrade He Lai, your sister is just as loving as you are."

Dean Ruan smiled as he watched Wu'er handing out candies to the children without seeming restrained at all.

After all, there are often some kind-hearted people who bring their children to the orphanage, but those children will stay away from the children in the orphanage, as if they are deliberately avoiding them, as if they dislike these children.

"Hey, she is a crowd pleaser. She likes to get closer to children wherever they are."

He Lai was also very happy that Wu'er liked this place.

Dean Ruan and He Lai stood there chatting while watching the group of children playing games on the playground.

Afterwards, He Lai also visited the farm and helped deal with some issues, such as castrating wild boars, some sick animals, and reinforcing fences.

In general, this farm is well managed. Several caregivers and older children have been taking good care of the farm, and the feces are also handled regularly by dung collectors.

There are also many nearby farmers who come to pick up manure and help the orphanage with some work. After all, manure is an important material in that era, and it is not the farmers' habit to take it for free.

When they were leaving in the afternoon, Wuer hugged He Lai's neck and asked, "Brother, where are my two eagles? I miss them."

Wu'er also saw golden eagles in the orphanage and thought they were the two that He Lai owned. Only when she got closer did she realize that they were not her own golden eagles.

"Okay, big brother will take you to see them." After saying that, He rode his bicycle to the First Hospital.

"Oh, little Wu'er is so cute, much prettier than your big brother."

Song Xue, with a big belly, picked up Wu'er and said with a smile.

"Sister Song Xue, please take it easy. Your belly is a little big. It seems like we haven't seen each other for only a few months."

He Lai quickly took Wu'er from Song Xue's arms. As a pregnant woman, only Song Xue dared to hold a child. If the child accidentally kicked her, it would be bad.

"Hi, twins, it's almost seven months, the belly must be a little bigger." Song Xue said nonchalantly.

"Congratulations, why are you still on duty when you're pregnant? Where are your best friends?"

He Lai asked with a smile.

"Hey, there's nothing to do at home. Mom is with me in the hospital. Shiya and the others are at home with their kids. Why, do you miss them? Do you want me to call them over for you?"

Song Xue put her arm around He Lai's shoulder and teased.

In recent years, Liu Shiya and her friends have got married and had their own children.

"Alright, alright, Sister Song Xue, your mouth will get you into trouble sooner or later."

He Lai was speechless. Song Xue was more like a modern person, without the simple and kind character of women in the fifties and sixties.

"Tsk, you don't need to worry about my business, you should just take care of yourself. Wu'er, come with me, I'll get you something delicious."

After Song Xue finished speaking, she took Wu'er's hand and walked towards her office.

Wu'er was also extremely obedient and followed with a smile on her face.

But soon Song Xue couldn't laugh anymore, because she found that Wu'er didn't like the food she gave to her. Instead, Wu'er took out a lot of snacks from Gangcheng from her treasure bag and gave them to Song Xue.

Song Xue was so embarrassed that she could only glare at He Lai several times. After all, she also knew that He Lai often went to Gangcheng.

In order to avoid embarrassment, He Lai took Wu'er away on the pretext of watching a golden eagle.

When the golden eagle saw Wu'er, its first instinctive reaction was to resist. However, when it saw He Lai taking out the dried venison from the cloth bag, it chose not to resist and let Wu'er hold it and ravage it.

After a while, Fang Qing came over and chatted for a few words, then touched Wu'er's little head.

Wu'er Sui He Lai called her Aunt Fang, and Fang Qing did not object. Instead, she was very doting on the little girl. After all, a well-behaved and sensible little girl was quite likable.

Before leaving, Fang Qing gave a jade bracelet to Wu'er, and another jade bracelet to He Lai, asking him to pass it on to He Tong. This made Song Xue jealous and a little angry.

After all, these two bracelets were originally intended for her two unborn children, but now they have been snatched away by this guy He Lai.

In fact, He Lai didn't care about it. After all, he had plenty of jade bracelets. He could just return the gift to Song Xue's child someday.

Afterwards, He Lai took Wu'er to Fengze Garden, after all, they still had to eat delicious food.

Wu'er is still very popular in Fengze Garden, but unfortunately Wu'er is the same as He Lai. They like to eat but not to cook. They are both destined to enjoy themselves.

"Xiao Laizi, Manager Cui asked you to get him more pork recently. The National Day holiday is coming soon, and the restaurant uses a lot of meat."

Master Hu ordered.

"Okay, I'll go take a look when I have time next time and try to get more." He Lai agreed casually.

"Well, just remember it." Master Hu nodded with satisfaction.

He Lai pulled Wu'er over and whispered something in her ear.

Wu'er immediately understood and ran to Master Liao, "Grandpa Liao, Grandpa Liao, I want to eat Buddha Jumps Over the Wall."

Master Liao picked up Wu'er and said softly, "If you want to eat Buddha Jumps Over the Wall, then little Wu'er has to stay with Grandpa Liao today."

When Wu'er heard that she couldn't go home, she turned to look at He Lai.

He Lai took one look and quickly replied, "It's okay to go back later. We have nothing to do. We are very free."

The meaning is obvious, you do it and we'll wait to eat.

“Hahahaha…” Laughter suddenly came from the kitchen.
