Siheyuan: Fighting against Japanese Aggression in Beijing

Chapter 173 Master, I'll Give You My House

In this way, time quickly came to October. At this time, Wang Yue and Lou Xiao'e were already a little pregnant. As for Yu Li, she was a month earlier than them. At this time, Wang Yue had also taken leave and rested at home under the operation of Li Kangri.

That day happened to be Sunday, and the three families gathered together again to discuss the matters of the three pregnant women.

"Master, I think, why don't our three families just have lunch together? At noon, Junior Brother will prepare the food in the kitchen, and I will deliver it to you. As for the afternoon, Junior Brother will still cook. What do you think?" Xu Damao suggested.

"Xu Damao, it's okay for you to serve your master's wife, but you can serve your wife yourself." Sha Zhu objected immediately.

"Hey, I'm giving you a chance. I'm your senior brother, so don't be shameless." Xu Damao said.

"Da Mao, don't make a fuss. Actually, I can go back to my mother's house, but I just can't bear to leave you." Lou Xiao'e said.

Hearing Lou Xiao'e say this, Sha Zhu felt a little embarrassed and quickly said, "Lou Xiao'e, I have no problem with you, I just can't stand my senior brother. Oh! Forget it, just serve me! One more is not too much."

"Really?" Lou Xiao'e said with a smile, "Thank you, Shazhu. I won't let you suffer any loss. I will cover all the meals for the three families. Is that okay?"

"That's more like it," Sha Zhu said, "Big Brother, learn from this. Look at how open-minded you are, Lou Xiao'e."

"Did I say I wouldn't include it? What do I need? Really!" Xu Damao said.

"Okay, you two, you can't go a day without quarreling!" Li Kangri said speechlessly again.

"Brother Kangri, it would be so boring if the two of them didn't quarrel! It's quite amusing to watch." Wang Yue said with a smile.

"Okay, I don't care anymore. I can't care. What if you give birth to the baby? I think I still need to go home and bring my mother back." Li Kangri said.

"I've wanted to say this for a long time. It's time to bring him back. We don't lack food now anyway," said Wang Yue.

"Yes, brother, I miss mom so much. Please go and pick her up soon. This time I will take good care of her!" Li Qinghe also echoed.

"Okay, then it's decided. I'll go back alone this time and you just wait for me at home." Li Kangri said.

"Okay, brother! I can't wait. Let me think about what dish I should cook for mom." Li Qinghe said with a smile.

Li Qinghe's words successfully stimulated Wang Yue. Her face instantly became sad and she missed her mother a little.

On the side, Li Kangri keenly caught the change in Wang Yue's expression, so he looked at Wang Yue and said, "Yuer, what's wrong?"

"Oh, nothing, haha!" Wang Yue said embarrassedly.

"I can tell even without you saying it. Do you miss your mother too?" Li Kangri asked with a smile.

"Hmm!" Wang Yue said in a low voice, as low as a mosquito.

"You, you don't know me yet. This time I will go back and bring them all back, without leaving any one behind. They will also settle down here in the future." Li Kangri said with a smile.

Wang Yue was very happy to hear what Li Kangri said, "Brother Kangri, is that true? Isn't this too much? My parents asked you to raise me, after all, I am a married woman."

"You wish. They are your parents, so of course you have to support them. It's not like you don't have a salary." Li Kangri joked. Even though it was a joke, he did it to comfort Wang Yue.

"Yes, I also have a salary. I almost forgot. But if everyone comes, will there not be enough space?" Wang Yue said, "We have four rooms now. We have one, Qinghe has one, and one is used as a living room. So there is only one room left."

The reason why she didn't say it just now was because she was afraid of having no place to live. She knew the house at home.

Hearing Wang Yue's words, Li Kangri said, "Yes, I really didn't think about that. No wonder you didn't mention bringing your parents over as well!"

"Brother, can I live in the same room with my mother?" Li Qinghe said.

"There's still one room missing!" said Wang Yue.

"Why don't we build another one in our yard? I think there's enough space," said Li Kangri.

"Does the street office allow this?" Sha Zhu said weakly.

"Hey, don't bother. I still have a vacant room in my house. You can just give it to me when the time comes. I won't be here for long anyway, so I'll transfer my house to you when the time comes." Xu Damao said, "Ezi, what do you think?"

"I have no objection, haha." Lou Xiao'e said.

After hearing what Xu Damao said, Sha Zhu was confused, "No, wait, Senior Brother, what do you mean? What do you mean you want to transfer the house to the master? What do you mean you can't stay long? Where are you going?" Sha Zhu asked several questions in a row.

"Oh no, I let it slip." Xu Damao was shocked, but he quickly reacted and said, "Junior brother, I plan to have eight or ten sons. By then, there won't be enough room here, so I plan to live with my father-in-law. He has more rooms there."

"You are quite generous. You gave me the house just like that. But it's good this way. It saves me from being annoyed when I see you." Sha Zhu said.

"Stop, Zhuzi, don't talk from now on. It's too much. Let's talk about business! Damao, since you said so, I won't be polite. I will pay you when the time comes." Li Kangri said.

"No need, this is my gift to your master." Xu Damao said.

"Yes, for the sake of anti-Japanese resistance, this is a gift from us to you. We will go through the formalities in a few days and give you the house." Lou Xiao'e agreed.

"No, it's not good for me to have too many things under my name. I'll give it to Yue'er's father when the time comes! I'll have to give you the money." Li Kangri said.

"Master, you are being too polite. If you really feel bad, please give me some medicine, the same one you gave to Deputy Director Li." Xu Damao said with a smile. He had been thinking about that medicine for a long time and had begged for it many times, but Li Kangri just wouldn't give it to him.

"Do you need that medicine?" Li Kangri said unhappily.

"Hehe, I don't need it, but I can do favors for others! Anyway, just give me some and it will be the rent." Xu Damao explained.

"Da Mao, what medicine is that?" Lou Xiao'e asked.

"Tonic medicine, haha, don't ask, it's very powerful!" Xu Damao said.

"Okay, I'll give it to you when the time comes." Li Kangri said helplessly.

"Okay, okay, it's settled."
