Chapter 990: His legend still exists in the Jianghu

~35 min read 6,903 words

In the end, Yu Decai didn't wait for Li Xuewu's return; instead, Peng Xiaoli went upstairs and told him the leader had something to do and went home.

No way, the bell for getting off work had already rung, and the broadcast had started playing songs; he could only wait until tomorrow morning to see Li Xuewu.

"Nothing urgent, right?"

Actually, he had just seen Peng Xiaoli walk past the door hurriedly, hadn't had time to ask, and the person had already gone downstairs.

Hearing that Li Xuewu had already gone home, and he hadn't gotten into the car, he mentioned it.

Sometimes, a leader's private family matters also needed to be understood appropriately; whether it was a happy event or a funeral, they wouldn't actively invite you, but if you didn't show up, there would be a problem.

Yu Decai was previously a section chief of the Security Department, and now he was the deputy group leader of the Security Group.

Even if it was a leader's family matter, even if a secretary had to be tight-lipped, trivial matters could still be told a little.

In essence, Peng Xiaoli was a clerk in the Comprehensive Section, and Yu Decai was also his leader.

So since the other party asked, he simply explained: "Said the eldest sister-in-law at home gave birth..."

"Gave birth to a child?"

Yu Decai raised his eyebrows and said with a smile, "That counts as a good thing, should be there."

"Maybe there are other things, perhaps."

Peng Xiaoli heard the meaning in Deputy Group Leader Yu's words and took the initiative to explain for the leader.

Actually, Deputy Group Leader Yu didn't necessarily have the meaning of complaining about the leader neglecting public affairs for private ones; it was more about protecting the leader.

But as a secretary, when talking about a leader's private matters, one still had to cover up, which was convenient for the leader to handle and explain afterward.

Leaving work a few minutes early wasn't a big problem; the two were just talking.

After speaking, they nodded and returned to their offices to pack up, also about to get off work.

Li Xuewu originally intended to give Peng Xiaoli a ride; he could drop him off on the way to the Traditional Chinese Medicine Hospital.

But Peng Xiaoli refused with the excuse of going with Gu Cheng, knowing the leader had urgent matters and it was unnecessary to delay.

Giving birth was urgent, but it wasn't Li Xuewu giving birth; there were so many people prepared at home, what problems could arise?

Li Xuewu had to go to the hospital because there were only he and his eldest brother, two men, at home; his father wasn't home, so brothers had to watch and help each other.

Don't talk about waiting until there was something or needing help before appearing; work couldn't be delayed.

If giving birth didn't count as a matter, didn't count as a big matter, then what counted as a big matter?

Work could be done anytime, but missing out on family members was missing out.

So when Li Xuewu's figure appeared in the delivery room corridor, his eldest brother Xuewen couldn't help but stand up from the wooden bench.

At the entrance of the delivery room, standing or sitting, several people were waiting on both sides of the corridor.

Shen Guodong, Seeing Sha Zhu, Old Seven She Yongwen, Old Nine Dai Yongxing, as well as eldest brother Xuewen, mother Liu Yin, and Ji Yuxiu.

"Xuewu."

"Wu Ge."

"Second Brother."

When he walked closer, everyone greeted him, and their eyes, which had been staring in the direction of the delivery room, also turned to him.

"How long have they been sent here?"

After Li Xuewu responded to everyone, he stood beside his mother and asked his eldest brother opposite.

Eldest brother Xuewen scratched his head; he wasn't very panicked in his heart, but he couldn't answer his question at this moment.

He didn't know if he had forgotten the time or hadn't listened to his question at all.

It was Shen Guodong and Seeing Sha Zhu who explained the situation in a few words.

Liu Yin had also relaxed from the tension at this moment, pinching her hands, and said to her son, "It was almost time for dinner, and Yang Yuan suddenly said her water broke; she didn't hurt, didn't fuss, you tell me~"

She let out a long sigh of relief and said, "Fortunately, there was preparation; Xuewen called Guodong and them, and I picked up the production bag that had been prepared early, and then we wrapped her in a quilt and carried her into the car."

"Fortunately, everything went smoothly!"

Looking at his mother muttering about the tension at the time, Li Xuewu patted her shoulder with his hand, comforting her.

Shen Guodong hugged his arms and stood against the wall, saying with a smile, "When Xuewen called, it gave me a fright; we had just finished collecting the car, it was a coincidence."

"I was even more coincidental!"

Seeing Sha Zhu said amusingly, "When Xuewen shouted at the screen door, I had just entered the courtyard, and I happened to help when I put down the bag."

"Oh, it still has to be that many people have great strength."

Liu Yin said with emotion, "If it were just us women, we wouldn't be able to lift Yang Yuan no matter what."

"Old Aunt, look at how polite you are."

Seeing Sha Zhu smiled and said, "Today I help Xuewen; tomorrow when Diliya gives birth, he just needs to help me."

"Good, good."

Eldest brother Xuewen listened to everyone talking at this moment, and his nerves also relaxed; a smile appeared on his stiff face, and he answered Seeing Sha Zhu seriously.

This made Seeing Sha Zhu feel embarrassed; he said he wanted Li Xuewen to help, that was just being polite to Aunt Liu.

Even if he needed help, he could call Shen Guodong, and there were plenty of people in the inverted house.

He really didn't dare to order a university teacher to help lift a pregnant woman.

Especially Li Xuewen's personality, which was different from Li Xuewu's; he was lively when he was young, but steady when he grew up.

Unlike Li Xuewu, who was naughty when he was young and bad when he grew up, everyone had no pressure chatting together.

At this moment, Li Xuewen spoke seriously, which meant he really accepted his favor; it was originally a matter of neighbors helping each other, but it seemed like he was very close to him.

Seeing his eldest brother's sincerity and Seeing Sha Zhu's true meaning, and not wanting the two whose channels didn't match to be embarrassed, Li Xuewu changed the topic.

"Have you notified the mountain?"

He looked at his eldest brother and asked, "Do you want to tell Dad, or should I send a car to pick him up?"

"Notify..."

Li Xuewen's brain was also messy now, not very clear, and he didn't have the ability to think.

Li Xuewu didn't look at him again, but looked at his mother and asked, "How about telling Dad tonight and sending a car to pick him up tomorrow?"

"Good, good, tomorrow is good."

Liu Yin originally wanted to agree to pick him up from the mountain tonight, but after hearing her son say so, she realized it was already dark.

Going up the mountain at night was dangerous, and coming back was just as dangerous.

Even if he arrived home, there was no urgent need for his help; it was already past midnight, what could he see?

So hearing Li Xuewu mention sending a car to pick up Li Shun from the mountain tomorrow, she happily nodded in agreement.

Turning her head to see Ji Yuxiu wearing a uniform, she asked with a smile, "Coming from the unit?"

"No~ I was at the door of the house."

Ji Yuxiu smiled and said, "Just entered the alley, heard people say the sister-in-law gave birth, and I turned over without even entering the courtyard."

After speaking, she blinked and said to the worried eldest brother, "Don't worry, didn't Director Zhao say everything is prepared? There's nothing wrong."

"I know, I know."

Li Xuewen muttered, but his eyes were staring straight at the delivery room; he probably hadn't heard clearly what Ji Yuxiu said.

Ji Yuxiu looked at him helplessly and smiled at Li Xuewu again.

Li Xuewu looked at his eldest brother understandingly, waved to Seeing Sha Zhu, Guodong, and others, signaling them to go out and talk.

From being carried from home to entering the delivery room, it had only been a short while; giving birth, especially natural birth, had to be waited for.

It could be seen that Shen Guodong and others were tired all day and busy with this trip, which was really hard work.

After going downstairs and smoking a cigarette with them, he arranged for them to go home first.

Even if he wanted to thank them, he had to pick a time later, or a full month, or a hundred days, and wait for eldest brother Xuewen to set up a banquet to toast them.

After sending them away, he went upstairs to the office of Zhao Yufeng, the vice president of the Traditional Chinese Medicine Hospital.

It seemed like he knew Li Xuewu would come, or the gatekeeper had called him; even though it was past work hours, he was still waiting for him in the office.

"Li Chu, come in."

Zhao Yufeng was very polite; seeing Li Xuewu standing at the door, he hurriedly stood up from behind the office desk and went to the door to welcome him.

Li Xuewu also smiled and took the initiative to reach out his hand, muttering words of thanks.

"Director Zhao, thank you very much; I just heard my mother muttering about your kindness."

"Oh, why be so polite among family!"

Zhao Yufeng waved his hand pretentiously and said with a smile, "I was afraid that staying there would put pressure on them, so I returned to the office to wait for news."

Saying this, he let Li Xuewu sit on the sofa, and a secretary entered smartly to pour tea.

"Don't worry, not to mention your father, just the relationship between us, how could I not be concerned?"

"Heard about it, arranged properly."

Li Xuewu smiled and accepted his help, took the teacup handed by the secretary, thanked him softly, and then said to Zhao Yufeng, "Just discussed with the family, planning to pick up my father tomorrow to take a look."

"Should be!"

Zhao Yufeng raised his head slightly and agreed, "Holding a grandson, this is a family happy event, should be."

"To be honest, in the middle of winter, it's suffering on the mountain, sigh~"

After speaking, he sighed helplessly, shook his head, and said, "Fortune plays tricks on people, forced by the situation."

"Look at what you said, I didn't come to complain to you!"

Li Xuewu said with a smile, "Even if I complained, I wouldn't complain to you; Zhao Xia is still on the mountain, just as bitter."

"Young, eating bitterness is no problem."

Zhao Yufeng looked at Li Xuewu and smiled, "If our Zhao Xia had one-tenth of your ability, I wouldn't force him to eat bitterness."

"But who told him not to have this ability!"

After speaking, he also had a sense of helplessness of wanting to hit his own child when looking at someone else's child, and shook his head.

Li Xuewu said amusingly, "If you say that, my father will come back and tell you about my history of being young and frivolous."

"Hahaha~"

Zhao Yufeng obviously knew some, laughed out loud at this moment, but affirmed in his mouth, "Naughty boy, naughty boy, not naughty is not a good boy!"

Taking a sip of tea, he smiled and said, "If Zhao Xia could achieve your results, he wouldn't be a person who can't distinguish the five grains even after going to university."

After speaking, he waved his hand and said, "Too lazy to talk about him, seeing you, I get even angrier at him; let him squat on the mountain."

"You really don't say!"

Li Xuewu picked up the teacup and said with a smile, "I heard from Old Three that Zhao Xia's brain is good; he remembers things three times, Zhao Xia remembers once and it's done."

Praised him, took a sip of hot tea, and teased, "Don't wait until their internship ends, three days apart, and let you look at him with new eyes!"

"Haha! Then I'll burn high incense!"

Zhao Yufeng didn't say it in his mouth, but his son was praised, especially praised by Li Xuewu, so he was extremely happy in his heart.

In this world, men only have two kinds of good: one is someone else's wife is good, and the other is their own child is good.

Even if their own child was no good, they could say it themselves; if someone else said a little bit, they would feel it was too much.

Li Xuewu was a person who could speak and was also a transparent person; sitting here talking, how could he poke at the lungs?

However, Zhao Yufeng knew very well that Li Xuewu was young and talented, proud and arrogant, especially with a deep background and outstanding ability.

In his twenties, in a high position, famous—he really hadn't seen many, especially after liberation.

Such an accomplished young man wouldn't easily please others; saying his son was okay meant it was okay, and if his son wasn't okay, it was also okay.

"Speaking of which, I should thank your father."

Zhao Yufeng nodded and said seriously, "Zhao Xia mentions your father's teachings in every letter, teaching everything he knows; a rare famous teacher."

"Hey, didn't I tell you~"

Li Xuewu smiled and said, "Zhao Xia's brain is good; my father likes this, and he is happy to teach, unlike me."

At this moment, he mocked himself, "At the beginning, my father took a small tree branch to whip me, and my arms were red, but I just wouldn't learn, making him angry."

"This is called what kind of person has what kind of life!"

Zhao Yufeng looked at Li Xuewu and smiled, "Blessed people don't need to be busy, unblessed people run until their intestines break; you should walk this path."

"My father would have listened to your kindness long ago! Haha~"

Li Xuewu looked at the other party with a smile, put down the teacup in his hand, shook his head slightly, and said, "Some things really can't be said!"

"Look, this medical room on the mountain is set up; how many people have to remember your kindness, saying you have foresight!"

"Sigh~ just don't scold me~"

Zhao Yufeng smiled bitterly, looked at Li Xuewu and asked, "I heard the Steel Mill has taken the foreign trade channel, and now it's developing very well!"

"Coincidence~"

Li Xuewu knew what he wanted to say, nodded and explained, "Yangcheng Export Commodity Trade Fair, our factory's small hardware and kitchen hardware went there for exhibition, and we met some foreign businessmen."

"That's also not simple!"

Zhao Yufeng affirmed, "The export trade fair isn't held for the first time; there aren't many that have really made a name for themselves!"

"Can't see big development for the time being."

Li Xuewu nodded slightly and said, "It's mainly to broaden the economic capacity and solve part of the production overflow."

"So that's it, I thought..."

Zhao Yufeng glanced at Li Xuewu, didn't finish his words, and lowered his head to drink tea.

For a moment, he didn't speak, and Li Xuewu didn't know how to explain, so the atmosphere cooled down slightly.

However, it was Li Xuewu who took the initiative to speak: "Five Fortune Bank intends to establish a food factory in the mainland, and this order has been taken by us."

"Food industry?"

Zhao Yufeng thought for a while and asked, "Is it agricultural and sideline product reprocessing, or non-staple food processing?"

"Both, it's a big category."

Li Xuewu paused and explained, "The beverage industry is mainly liquor, the non-staple food industry is mainly canned food, and the multi-functional food processing factory handles agricultural and sideline product reprocessing."

"This is really... a huge plan."

Zhao Yufeng nodded, looked at Li Xuewu genuinely, waiting for his follow-up.

Li Xuewu didn't keep him hanging, and said seriously, "The development of the food industry will inevitably cover the pharmaceutical industry in the future; this is an inevitable development direction."

Saying this, he smiled and looked at Zhao Yufeng, "Otherwise, we wouldn't cooperate with the Traditional Chinese Medicine Hospital to develop the Traditional Chinese Medicine Research Institute on the mountain."

"Hehe~"

Zhao Yufeng chuckled and nodded, then thought and said, "I thought of this point, didn't expect it to be really like this."

"Hmm, it's just that the timing isn't mature."

Li Xuewu said seriously, "The current work progress of the Traditional Chinese Medicine Research Institute is slow, and the basic construction process inevitably needs time; there's no way."

"I understand, I know this line better than you."

Zhao Yufeng nodded and agreed, "An old Chinese doctor studies a prescription for a lifetime, and might not be able to study it thoroughly, let alone multi-directional research."

"Sigh~"

Speaking of this, he sighed again and said, "If you are in a hurry, you can't eat hot tofu; there is still time to wait."

"Hmm, I'm afraid so."

Li Xuewu took a sip of tea, raised his head to look at the other party and said, "If we cooperate with universities, or transfer special talents to join the cooperation through channels, perhaps it will accelerate."

"I'll think of a way for this."

Zhao Yufeng frowned slightly and said, "We have considered what you said, but the situation... I won't say it, you understand."

After speaking, he pointed to the north and said, "That stall on the mountain is not easy; at least it's a place to settle down, so I don't dare to move it easily."

"Hmm, I know."

Li Xuewu nodded and said, "Your caution is reasonable; you can't just look at the immediate benefits."

"I didn't recognize the truth~"

Zhao Yufeng smiled helplessly and explained, "You might not know the risks within our system; I'm not asking for favors from you."

He said seriously and softly, "It's just that finding a stable delivery team, our hospital is a bit stretched; think about it."

"Hmm, I understand."

Li Xuewu nodded, indicating he understood what he meant by saying this.

Not to mention hospitals outside Beijing, just in Beijing, during this period, or even for a long time in the future, there were not many in the hospital who could deliver babies; there were many cases where pregnant women were suffocated to death.

You just think about it, the life experience of the writer who was a dentist at that time was how absurd.

Now, if a junior high school student holds a pair of pliers to pull your tooth, do you dare to use it?

Zhao Yufeng said in his mouth that it wasn't asking for favors, but he was pouring out bitterness and talking about hardship.

Li Xuewu couldn't help but remember this favor, so he gave the other party a bottom line today: foreign trade orders wouldn't forget the Traditional Chinese Medicine Hospital in the future.

And don't say that Mother Liu Yin and the eldest sister-in-law were stubborn and didn't go to Gu Ning's unit to give birth, not to mention that it was close and convenient.

It was the same everywhere; since they came in with a relationship, as long as people reached out, you had to remember their feelings.

Li Xuewu wasn't afraid of owing favors to those in the military hospital, and Gu Ning was even less afraid, just didn't know how to repay them.

Since Zhao Yufeng of the Traditional Chinese Medicine Hospital took the initiative to do the work, giving birth here was convenient.

First, Mother and eldest sister-in-law had no psychological pressure, and second, he also knew how to repay this favor.

After all, what he presided over and what Zhao Yufeng presided over had a cooperative relationship; with mutual support, everything came out.

Zhao Yufeng was confident that he was definitely not asking for favors from Li Xuewu, but rather wanted to make the relationship tighter and more reliable.

With Li Xuewu's background and ability now, this kid would soar into the sky sooner or later.

Even if there was no greater possibility in the future, in this one-third of an acre of Dongcheng, the Steel Mill also had huge energy.

Not to mention putting Li Xuewu aside, Li Shun's sons were not ordinary characters.

The eldest son and eldest daughter-in-law, looking at it now, had no ability, just a teaching craftsman.

But university teachers, whether walking the path of research or politics, were an extraordinary starting point.

What level was the president of Huaqing, and what position was the vice president of Huaqing when he went out; this starting point was definitely not something ordinary people could compare to.

Even Li Xuewu, who was in the same class as his son, was a kid with real strength.

Li Shun brought him up and taught him from childhood; it was definitely not what Li Xuewu said in his words, that Zhao Xia was smart and remembered things three times, while Li Xuewu had to remember three times.

Scene words, joking was okay, believing it was being a fool.

The whole family were capable people; it wouldn't work to repay his favors, he just wanted to get on the relationship.

Hearing that Li Shun's youngest daughter had already started work, wait a few more years, Zhao Xia graduated, try to propose marriage, it must be a good marriage.

Others said Li Shun was honest and had no ability, but in Zhao Yufeng's view, he had great wisdom.

At least he was stronger than him in educating children.

The two talked in the office for a while, felt the time was almost up, and walked downstairs together.

Zhao Yufeng was wearing a white coat, walking beside Li Xuewu without being conspicuous, but that was in the eyes of Liu Yin and others.

Who in this hospital didn't know who Vice President Zhao was; he accompanied Li Xuewu to the delivery room, and the obstetrics director had been waiting at the door early.

"Director Zhao, it's quite smooth."

"Gave birth?"

Zhao Yufeng saw her outside and was slightly stunned, nodded and asked, "Is everything arranged?"

"I arranged it personally."

The obstetrics director had just come out of the delivery room, her face hard to hide her fatigue, Li Xuewu took the initiative to shake hands and asked for well-being.

Zhao Yufeng simply introduced the two, focusing on Li Shun's relationship, without saying much about Li Xuewu's status.

But just from the attitude of Director Zhao toward him, and the address, the obstetrics director could also hear the clues.

Such a young division-level cadre, hearing it was really scary!

Doctor Li was quiet in the unit, honest and dutiful on weekdays, didn't expect to have such a promising son.

They knew the eldest son and eldest daughter-in-law were university teachers, but it was the first time they heard the second son was so powerful.

Li Xuewu smiled and thanked the other party again, saying that when his father Li Shun returned, he would come to thank him formally.

The obstetrics director was a smart person; while leading them to the ward, she joked with a smile, saying thanks were not needed, but a full-month banquet had to be eaten.

They all said that when you succeed, there are smiles around you; this was true.

Since Li Xuewu made progress, he really hadn't seen many people shouting at him.

Even the situation with Yu Daru and others hadn't seen the other party say any harsh words.

Therefore, the deputy division level was the beginning of the official career; anything lower was a joke.

In the ward, Mother Liu Yin and Ji Yuxiu were busy, while the eldest brother was squatting by the bed, staring at the newborn in the swaddling clothes with burning eyes.

Seeing Zhao Yufeng and the obstetrics director coming over, the attending physician and head nurse also followed in.

Knowing this was a relationship household, didn't expect the relationship to be so hard; Director Zhao personally arranged the production and postpartum ward, and came to visit personally after production.

This was really... a rare situation.

The obstetrics director who delivered the baby naturally understood Zhao Yafang's situation; at this moment, she stood by the hospital bed and looked at the pregnant woman, and then softly gave everyone a simple introduction.

After the introduction, she got Zhao Yufeng's nod of affirmation, and then gave Liu Yin and Ji Yuxiu nursing instructions.

The head nurse took the lead, saying that there had always been people nursing here, so don't worry about postpartum nursing problems.

Although it was Li Shun's work unit, being able to get such a positive attitude, the whole family couldn't help but be surprised and gratified.

Li Xuewen's eyes were all on the child; at this moment, he stood up to deal with Zhao Yufeng and others, but his eyes were still wandering on the child.

Li Xuewu took a look at the child while they were talking; it was small, wrinkled, and a bit dark, and there were some stains on the exposed head.

Zhao Yafang saw his eyes, smiled gently and nodded, Li Xuewu saw it, also smiled, and made a response.

The eldest sister-in-law was thanking herself; the father-in-law's work unit, even if there were feelings, wouldn't go so far as to let the director come to care actively.

Who in this family could have a relationship with the hospital, to put it bluntly, wasn't it the second little uncle.

It was just that she was exhausted at this moment, could only smile, and couldn't speak.

Li Xuewu just took a look at the child, then heard the head nurse finish speaking, and he didn't say what he was thankful for, but expressed thanks to everyone in his father's name.

At this time, Han Jiankun, who had been waiting outside the door, walked in, carrying several paper bags.

Li Xuewu smiled and introduced: "Thank you words wait for my father to come back tomorrow and say to everyone, happy candy and happy cigarettes first, which is our family's gratitude."

"Don't be polite~"

From Han Jiankun's hand, he took the paper bags that had been packed long ago, and sent them to the hands of everyone in the room respectively.

The obstetrics director and head nurse naturally didn't dare to take them, saying polite words in their mouths, but their eyes looked at Zhao Yufeng.

Zhao Yufeng heard Li Xuewu speak earnestly, took the initiative to take the bag, opened it and looked, it was indeed happy candy and happy cigarettes.

The difference was that there was half a catty of candy and two boxes of cigarettes, but it was Zhonghua, which was truly grand.

This gift wasn't much, but it wasn't little, and it just happened to be on everyone's bottom line.

Don't ask why Li family's second son could make a name for himself in Dongcheng; it was because even Gu Haitao was willing to recruit him as a son-in-law; seeing this matter, he really had means.

Seeing Zhao Yufeng take the gift, the obstetrics director, attending physician, head nurse, and others also took it.

Li Xuewu instructed Han Jiankun to send the remaining gifts to the office, and also asked the few in the room to help him say hard work to those he didn't see.

Look at how this was said, look at how this was done!

Seeing that person carrying many bags in, I thought it was distributed to everyone in the room and then put away.

Didn't expect that, no matter how many people participated in the delivery, the gifts were always extra, but they were all sent to the office, and what was said was hard work.

Giving people the inside, and giving them the face, and fulfilling the words of asking Li Shun to come and thank them personally just now.

Don't ask why he was a section chief; those who could walk to this position were not bad.

Some people muttered in their hearts that Li Shun's eldest son was a bit wooden, or didn't understand human feelings.

They didn't think about getting any gifts, and didn't think about receiving such a face-saving thanks in front of the leader.

It was just that they were sent to the ward, mother and child were safe, smooth, and it was your father's work unit, so it was always okay to say something nice.

People were like this; even if it was a matter of course, they also asked for a sense of unexpected joy that was justified.

Now it was good, everyone was polite, weighing the bags in their hands, just seeing Director Zhao's slightly surprised eyes, they knew the gift in their hands wasn't "light."

After sending everyone away, Li Xuewu didn't go into the ward to disturb the eldest sister-in-law again.

Seeing Mother and Ji Yuxiu cleaning up the ward, he said to his eldest brother and walked out.

Nursing couldn't use Ji Yuxiu, she had to go to work, and Mother alone wouldn't work.

Even adding a clumsy eldest brother wouldn't work; it was good if he didn't add chaos; he was the master who didn't touch pots and bowls at home.

So after coming out of the hospital, Li Xuewu called Han Jiankun to return to the courtyard first.

It was also a coincidence; just as the command car stopped at the gate, he saw Li Xue carrying a bag and coming out of the courtyard hurriedly.

"Second Brother?"

"Hmm, what are you doing?"

Li Xuewu looked at her amusingly; Li Xue was most afraid of the cold; at this moment, she wrapped her scarf tightly around her face, revealing only two eyes.

"I just came back!"

Li Xue said complainingly, "Deputy Director Jing worked overtime; the merger case has to be discussed tomorrow, and the plan has to be brought out tonight!"

Saying this, she shook the bag in her hand and asked, "Did eldest sister-in-law give birth? What did she give birth to?"

"Hehe, what did she give birth to?!"

Li Xuewu tapped her forehead lightly with a smile, teasing her, "Gave birth to a Sun Wukong!"

"Oh~ you're teasing me again!"

Li Xue shook off his big hand unwillingly, curiously asked, "Is it a boy?"

She was smart, knowing Sun Wukong was a boy, and had already guessed it at this moment.

Li Xuewu nodded with a smile and said, "You have a big nephew."

"Really!"

Li Xue's face instantly bloomed with excitement; at this moment, her feet couldn't stand still, and she said she was going to the hospital.

"In the middle of the night!"

Li Xuewu grabbed her scarf and said unhappily, "I've told you, you're not allowed to walk the night road alone, don't you have a memory?"

After speaking, he opened the car door, signaling her to get in.

Li Xue then reacted; Second Brother wanted the driver to send her to the hospital.

"Actually, it's not far, just a few steps around the corner..."

She wanted to explain, but seeing Second Brother's serious eyes, she stuffed the rest of her words back into her stomach.

Not allowing walking the night road, not just her, including all the women in the family, and even the men were not allowed.

Even the boys in the recycling station knew that they had to go home before dark.

In this year, it wasn't peaceful even in the city; it was normal to be killed and thrown into a ditch, and not be discovered for ten days or half a month.

In the current Sihe Academy, there were not twenty million people, and there was no situation of people crowding people.

There were always people saying where a murder case happened, where a girl was harmed, anyway, it was all mysterious.

Ji Yuxiu went to work riding an iron donkey, which was the crotch of their office, someone sent her, or rode a bicycle, but carried a gun at her waist.

This area of Nanluoguxiang, whether for the tough guys or the little cubs, was a forbidden area.

They all knew the danger here; last year, many people lost their heads because of some things.

Who Li Xuewu was, the newly risen tough guys might not know, but the old guns had taught them that Li Erbala really killed people without paying with his life.

Don't ask who Li Erbala was; as long as you see a big scar on his face, he is quite tall, his body is strong, don't provoke him, be careful of eating a bullet.

It could be said that Li Xuewu was no longer in the Jianghu, but his legend still existed in the Jianghu.

Calling Han Jiankun to send Li Xue, he stepped into the courtyard gate.

The sun was short in winter, but the time for getting off work was basically the same, so eating in the courtyard was as punctual as ever.

He came back at this moment, and there were people on duty at the gatehouse.

Maybe they were playing cards, but Li Xuewu had been talking at the gate for a long time, and at this moment he came in, only a room full of people looked at each other, no poker, and no noise.

They really didn't know Li Xuewu came back at this time; if he hadn't blocked the gate, these boys would have run away long ago.

Li Xuewu didn't care about catching gambling, but these boys were afraid when they saw him, especially in the dark, seeing the scarred eyes, their bodies trembled.

Looking at seven or eight boys sitting in the room playing silence, Li Xuewu just felt it was amusing.

Glanced at them, walked straight into the courtyard, the inverted house lights were on, and the boys were reading.

He didn't go to the west room, but passed the hanging flower gate and looked at his own home.

Seeing the old lady sitting on the kang smoking a pipe alone, he entered the room.

"Why did you come back?"

"Just came back from the hospital."

Li Xuewu smiled, touched the edge of the kang, and sat down on the edge.

"Have you eaten dinner?"

"Don't worry, ate with the inverted house."

The old lady smiled, looked at Li Xuewu, and asked, "Are Yafang and the others all good?"

"Good! Very good~"

Li Xuewu smiled and said, "Congratulations to you, you have a great-grandson!"

"Hahaha~ good!"

The old lady was obviously a bit nervous, her fingers pinching the pipe stem, and at this moment she let go and smiled.

Li Xuewu went down to pour her a cup of hot water and put it on the kang, and urged: "The climate is dry in winter, smoking coughs the throat, drink more water."

"Hmm, got it."

The old lady looked at her grandson with a smile and said, "In a few days, you will also be a father; my joy is a double happiness."

"You said it."

Li Xuewu nodded with a smile and said, "By then you will have trouble; children all over the kang, making you unable to watch."

"That's good!"

The old lady smiled and said, "Descendants are prosperous, adding people and entering the mouth, this is a great happy event; I'm not angry, I have to laugh!"

"Just wait, now your mouth is hard."

Li Xuewu teased her and laughed for a while, then explained: "Met Li Xue when she went out, I asked the car to send her to the hospital."

"Hmm, got it."

The old lady nodded and said, "Told me, it's not far; I was also worried, and was muttering."

"No, no matter how far, you can't walk the night road."

Li Xuewu emphasized, and then said: "Eldest sister-in-law gave birth, has to stay in the hospital for two or three days; Yuxiu and Li Xue have to go to work, Mother alone can't hold on, have to find someone to help."

"What about Xuewen?"

The old lady was obviously stunned, and then thought of the meaning in Li Xuewu's words; this referred to outsiders like Qin Jingru, not family members.

Whether it was Yu Li or Qin Jingru, the old lady had long been used to her grandson's lifestyle and personality.

Not ambiguous when spending money, not stingy when generous, capable in doing things, organized in doing things; I have to say the second grandson considered it thoroughly.

Asking for help for just two or three days, whether giving money or giving things, too much or too little was not appropriate.

She was ambiguous here, and asked, "How about I go, don't bother."

"Don't feel sorry for the money, I feel sorry for you!"

Li Xuewu smiled and pressed the old lady's hand, saying softly: "Just two or three days, Mother alone really can't hold on, especially with the child."

"Are you looking for someone in the courtyard?"

The old lady was transparent; after her grandson finished speaking, she already knew his meaning.

Asking for help at this time also had the meaning of a bourgeois little tail; ordinary families wouldn't easily take risks.

Don't look at the old lady not going out on weekdays, but she understood a lot.

Li Xuewu didn't hide it either, pointed to the backyard, and said: "Wanted to find the eldest mother, but was afraid the family couldn't take care of it, so I could only ask Qin Huairu's mother-in-law to help, I'll ask first."

The old lady raised her head slightly, nodded and said: "That's the meaning; if you want to be steady in your heart and have a grasp on your hands, you can only find her."

"Don't say what to give."

Li Xuewu patted the old lady's hand lightly and said: "I'll just say it was you who asked me to find her, which is a face."

"Give ten yuan, complete the inside, help take care of it until discharge, save Mother from hard work, and have time to come back to cook, make up for eldest sister-in-law, and you can rest assured."

"Hmm, just say I said it, ask her to help."

The old lady nodded and said: "She is ruthless in offending people, but her heart is not bad, and she has work in her hands, and they all live in one courtyard, go."

"Okay, then I'll go ask first."

Li Xuewu stood up, walked out of the room, and said to the old lady while walking: "If there is anything, I'll come and tell you again."

Saying this, he went out of the door, greeted people in the courtyard, introduced Zhao Yafang's situation, and the happy event of the Li family having a eldest son and eldest grandson.

While talking, he passed the second gate, saw the lights in the Jia family were on, stepped over, and greeted when he was close to the door: "Qin Jie, are you at home?"

"Hey, coming."

Qin Huairu heard Li Xuewu's voice, stood up and saw his figure from the window, and hurriedly lifted the door curtain and pushed open the door.

"Yo! Why are you here? Did Yafang give birth? I heard it as soon as I came back."

Her mouth was fast, asking a bunch like a machine gun; Li Xuewu was talking while she was speaking when he entered the room.

Bangeng three children were doing homework at the dining table; seeing Li Xuewu enter, they all greeted him in surprise.

Li Xuewu smiled and greeted Jia Zhangshi who came out of the inner room, then pinched Bangeng's fat face, and responded to the three children's greetings.

"Don't be busy, I'm not thirsty."

Seeing Qin Huairu wanted to pour him water, he hurriedly waved his hand to refuse, sat down at the dining table at Bangeng's invitation.

"Just came back from settling things at the hospital, mother and child are safe, smooth."

"Really a good thing!"

Qin Huairu smiled and said: "I said Yafang's belly was so big, how is the child, how many jin?"

"I haven't had time to ask yet."

Li Xuewu smiled, glanced at Jia Zhangshi standing on the side, and said: "Isn't it, hand-hurried and foot-hurried, haven't experienced this, my brother didn't prepare either."

This was the truth; eldest brother Xuewen didn't pick up his mother-in-law, but to be honest, if his mother-in-law was picked up, it wouldn't be convenient for the whole family over there.

This was the cushion words; after saying this, Li Xuewu went straight to the point: "The old lady told me to ask Aunt Zhang to help take care of it." ===== CHAPTER 991 =====

This was just a preamble; after saying this, Li Xuewu went straight to the point: "The old lady told me to come and ask Aunt Zhang for help to go and look after things."
