Siheyuan: Big City, Small Love

Chapter 211 Ward

He family

"You, you, are causing trouble for your mother again."

When Wu Juan saw He Lai coming back, she pointed at He and said.

"What's wrong?" He Lai didn't know what was going on and looked confused.

"Come on, grandpa is back. He sighed and went back to his room."

Yu Shui interrupted and He Lai just realized what was happening.

"Can't you just let grandpa smoke a cigarette? Why do you have to say this in front of outsiders? Now it's all right, grandpa went back to his room and lay down as soon as he came back."

Wu Juan began to educate He Lai.

He Lai said helplessly: "Mom, I spoke too quickly, but this is also for the sake of Grandpa's health. I will be more careful next time, okay."

Wu Juan sighed and said, "I know you mean well, but your grandfather just likes it and it won't be easy for him to stop. You have to take it slow and consider your grandfather's feelings."

He Lai said, "I understand, Mom, is Grandpa okay?"

Wu Juan said, "It's definitely okay, but it may just be a little uncomfortable. Go in and apologize to him later, and grandpa will definitely not hold it against you."

He Lai nodded and said, "Okay, I understand." After that, He Lai pretended to go to the ear room in the central courtyard, but actually took out acupuncture from the space and planned to give his grandfather a set.

"Grandpa, don't be angry. It's my fault. I shouldn't have said that to you in front of Grandpa Li's family. I'm here to give you acupuncture."

He Lai apologized while massaging Mr. He who was lying on the bed.

"Grandpa doesn't blame you. I just can't help but want to smoke sometimes. It's okay, it's okay. I will smoke less."

Mr. He smiled and patted He Lai's hand as he was massaging it.

"After the massage, let's wash your back and let my grandson give you acupuncture."

"well."

……

"How is your grandfather?" Old Mrs. He asked hurriedly when she saw He Lai giving both massage and acupuncture.

"Grandma, it's okay. I just finished acupuncture. Let grandpa lie down for a while."

He Lai said with a smile.

"Okay, that's good. Grandma will be relieved. Let him go back to the countryside. Hey, it's hard for him to have nothing to do in the city. He was born to work hard and can't enjoy happiness."

Old Mrs. He sighed and continued to mend her cloth shoes.

"Grandma, don't worry. I will definitely get some sweet potato seedlings and good quality potatoes to send to Grandpa, and I will ensure that Hejia Village has enough food to eat."

He Lai walked over to Old Lady He, squatted down, held her hand and smiled.

"Okay, okay, grandma and grandpa are waiting, my good grandson."

Old Mrs. He touched He Lai's head and smiled so happily.

……

The next day, when He Lai woke up, He Zhan had already left with Old Man He.

He Lai also went to the hospital after having breakfast.

"You have a conscience. It's worth my waiting in the hospital." Song Xue saw He Lai holding a large bag of fruit in his hand and hurried to meet him.

"This date is yours. The apple and pear belong to that person."

He Lai gave a bag of dates to Song Xue and said with a smile.

"Okay, these dates are not bad, they are quite big. I'll share them with them when the time comes."

Song Xue is not pretentious. If there are no apples and pears, then there are no apples.

Outside the ward, there were two guards standing guard. When they saw He coming, they immediately stood up.

"Can I come in?" He Lai asked.

"Okay, but keep your voice down. The commander is still asleep, and his wife is resting next to him."

A guard quickly replied, after all, he had met He Lai yesterday and knew that he knew his leader.

"Okay, let me ask, where did the guard Gao go?"

He Lai thought of the guard Gao and asked about it.

"Platoon Leader Gao has been transferred by the commander. You'll have to ask the commander for details."

The guard also told the truth.

"Thank you." He said and walked into the ward.

When Old Mrs. Zhou heard some noise, she opened her eyes and smiled when she saw it was He Lai.

"Xiao Laizi, it's inappropriate for you to come over and bring so many fruits. I didn't eat much of the ones yesterday."

"Grandma Zhou, I got this from someone else. It's okay. I have the channels. I'm really good at fishing."

He Lai put the fruit aside and said with a smile.

"Old Zhou, Old Zhou, wake up. Xiao Laizi is here." Old Mrs. Zhou went over and shook Old Man Zhou.

It was too late for He Lai to stop it. Forget it, just wake up.

Old Master Zhou slowly opened his eyes, saw He Lai, and immediately became alert.

With the help of Old Mrs. Zhou, he half leaned forward and sat up.

"Xiao Laizi, you have a conscience and still remember to come and see the old man."

"Grandpa Zhou, you are not willing to admit that you are old. You can't do it anymore. I'll make you greedy." He Lai joked with a smile.

As soon as Mr. He heard this, he realized that He Lai already knew that he was drunk.

"It's nothing serious, it's nothing serious, it's just a small matter, it will be fine in a few days."

"Grandpa Zhou, I'm a doctor. I know better than you whether you are okay or not."

"Uh, forget about that. You are a versatile guy."

Mr. Zhou pointed at He Lai awkwardly.

"How is it? Are you used to the Red Star Steel Mill?"

"It's a habit. Grandpa Zhou, you don't know that I have been working in the Red Star Steel Rolling Mill since I was a child."

"You'll get used to it. I heard that you came up with the maintenance plan for the steel mill?"

When He Lai heard that Mr. Zhou actually knew about this, he continued.

"I did it, how did Grandpa Zhou know about it?"

"Your Grandpa Zhou is the Vice Minister of the Ministry of Metallurgical Industry. How do you know that?"

Old Mrs. Zhou gave the two peeled apples to the two of them and said with a smile.

"Oh, Grandpa Zhou is so powerful?" He Lai asked in surprise.

"Hey, I'm just holding a position, I don't really care about anything. I didn't want you to come after graduation, so you haven't come yet."

Mr. Zhou said with a smile.

"Ah, that's what I was wondering. Why did the school leaders keep asking me to go to the Ministry of Industry? It turns out you are the one behind this."

He Lai finally realized why he, a person without any background, was so highly valued despite being advised by the school leaders.

"That's all, as long as you live comfortably. I'll go to your factory in a few days, and you have to stay with the old man."

"Okay, I'll have someone make you something delicious. Do you remember the guy who used to go fishing with me?"

"It's those two guys."

"Well, the older one is my brother Zhuzi, he cooks delicious food and is now the chef in our factory. The younger one is my brother Damao, he also works in our factory and is great at showing movies."

"Oh, it seems that the Red Star Steel Mill has become your base. I heard that your father and mother are also in it."

Mr. Zhou smiled and joked.

"That's right. Half of the people in the steel mill are my people. Grandpa Zhou, once you enter the steel mill, you have to listen to me. Do you understand?"

"Okay, just don't let your legs get weak by then." Grandpa Zhou smiled and took a bite of the apple.

"Xiao Laizi, where did you get these apples and pears? They taste really good."

"Of course, these are genuine Changping apples and Jingxi white pears, they are very sweet. I have a lot more, I secretly asked someone to exchange them for grain from the countryside."

"You are really good, if you were in my battle, you would definitely be a good fighter.

I won't ask too many questions, but you have to give the old man some more of this fruit, so that I can enjoy it."

Mr. Zhou did not ask in detail. After all, it was impossible to have such fresh fruits in winter. Ordinary people could not grow them. Since He Lai was unwilling to say, he did not ask.

In this way, the three of them chatted with each other.
