Speaking of which, Jia Dongsheng likes both Yi Xiaoyue and Yi Xiaoming very much.
Both kids are very sensible, the kind of sensible that makes you feel distressed.
Perhaps it was because they knew in their hearts that their biological parents were gone and they came to Yi Zhonghai's home, which made the two children sensitive. They were afraid that they would behave badly and make Yi Zhonghai and his wife dislike them, so they behaved very well all the time.
But it was this cautiousness that made Jia Dongsheng, an outsider, feel very distressed.
At the same time, Jia Dongsheng could also understand that perhaps it was because Yi Xiaoyue and Yi Xiaoming were well-behaved and sensible that Yi Zhonghai came to ask for help. Otherwise, Yi Zhonghai would not have given up such a big face for a little food.
You know, he is the boss in the yard. As a boss, he doesn't help other people in the yard, but instead asks others for help. How can this be justified?
"Uncle, if you say so, I can help you think of a solution."
Jia Dongsheng smiled bitterly: "To be honest, when I want to buy something, it's not as easy as it appears. I need to ask for help."
"It's just that they need the medicine I prescribe every month, so they are willing to help me get some. Otherwise, how can I buy these foods so easily?"
"But transactions like this can't be too frequent. After all, if it's too frequent, people will think I'm using my monthly medication to threaten them, don't you think?"
"That's right, Dongsheng, you make sense."
Only then did Yi Zhonghai completely understand why Jia Dongsheng was able to buy so many good things. After all the fuss, it turned out that some patients helped to buy them. With so many people, there would always be something to buy. No wonder, the family was not lacking in nutrition.
"Well, uncle."
Jia Dongsheng was silent for a while before he spoke again: "I'll try to buy it for you once a week, but I have to be careful. This may not be possible. After all, people can't get it every week."
"Also, I'm not sure what they'll be able to buy. I can only promise that if I get it, I'll give you a share. What do you think?"
“Really…really?”
Yi Zhonghai became excited. Once a week was a lot. It was equivalent to eating meat four times a month. Even if he saved a little each time, he might be able to eat it for longer.
"I'll try my best, but I can't guarantee it."
"It's okay, it's okay, as long as you can help, Dongsheng."
The old man stood up, grabbed Jia Dongsheng's hand, and expressed his gratitude repeatedly. This solved the biggest problem in his heart.
If you’re not a father, you don’t know how sweet it is to be one.
If you haven’t been a father, you don’t know how hard it is to be one!
When the old couple were together, they just wanted to eat their fill. They didn’t care about how good the food was. As long as they could fill their stomachs, they would be able to make it through the day.
But now it is no longer possible. Looking at our skinny and weak children, how can we as parents bear to let them not have enough to eat or wear warm clothes?
"Hey, uncle, when I was cooking earlier, I was afraid we wouldn't be able to finish it, so I left half of the rabbit. You can take it home and stew it for Xiaoyue and Xiaoming tomorrow."
Looking at Yi Zhonghai's excited expression, Jia Dongsheng was very touched. This was really a touch of humility shown by a father in front of others, so he thought about it and decided not to let Yi Zhonghai make a wasted trip.
"Really?" Yi Zhonghai's lips were trembling with excitement.
"Of course it's true."
Jia Dongsheng didn't hesitate and went to the kitchen. Not long after, he brought out the chopped rabbit meat in a basin. "Uncle, this is all we have left. Take it back."
"I can't just take it for free. I have to pay, Dongsheng. You know, I'm your uncle and I'm not short of money."
As Yi Zhonghai was talking, he wanted to take money out of his pocket, but Jia Dongsheng quickly stopped him: "Uncle, don't, you gave me two bottles of wine, how can I have the nerve to ask you for money!"
"That's it for today. From now on, when I buy something for you, you pay me. Today, let's say you're exchanging wine for my rabbit."
"Okay, fine then. Don't do this again next time."
Seeing that Jia Dongsheng was sincere in trying to stop him, Yi Zhonghai stopped fighting and nodded in agreement. Before leaving, Yi Zhonghai expressed his sincere gratitude to Jia Dongsheng again before leaving.
"This is the man who becomes a father!"
Jia Dongsheng sighed, but at the same time, he was secretly thinking in his heart that even if he really wanted to sell some things from Yi Zhonghai, fish and meat would be the main ones.
After all, fish is the easiest thing to explain its origin. For other things, take out as little as possible. As for how to take them out, you still need to calculate carefully.
On the other side, Yi Zhonghai returned home carrying the basin.
Aunt Yi was waiting at home worriedly. Yi Xiaoming and Yi Xiaoyue were around her and they noticed that something was wrong with Aunt Yi and stayed with her quietly. This scene made Aunt Yi feel that adopting this pair of children was the best decision she had made in her life.
Seeing Yi Zhonghai coming back, the aunt hurried to greet him. Before she could say anything, she saw the basin in Yi Zhonghai's hand and the meat in the basin.
"This...this...what is this?" The old lady pointed at the basin with trembling fingers.
"It's the rabbit meat that Dongsheng gave us. He asked us to stew it for Xiaoyue and Xiaoming tomorrow." Yi Zhonghai smiled and looked at Yi Xiaoming and Yi Xiaoyue who were following behind the aunt with a kind face.
Yi Zhonghai felt that adopting this pair of children was the right thing to do. They were so well-behaved.
"Dongsheng gave it to me?"
When the aunt heard this, she was happy at first, but then she became worried. There was nothing she could do. In her heart, of course she was longing for the rabbit meat, but she did not forget that Yi Zhonghai went there this time not for this meal of rabbits, but to ensure that Yi Xiaoyue and Yi Xiaoming could eat meat for a long time.
"What about the future?" the aunt asked cautiously.
"Dongsheng has also agreed that as long as he can get it, he will buy it for us once a week."
"Phew, that's great."
Hearing this, the aunt felt relieved. This meant that Yi Xiaoyue and Yi Xiaoming could have a good meal every week, which was a great thing.
"Don't take it so seriously. Dongsheng only said that. He also said that the situation may not change every week. We'll see when the time comes."
Yi Zhonghai was afraid that the greater the aunt's hope, the greater her disappointment, so he quickly poured cold water on her.
"I know, I know."
The aunt was not disappointed when she heard this. These days, it is not easy for anyone to buy meat. Although Jia Dongsheng is very capable, he cannot give such a guarantee.
"That's good to know. You should go to the market more often when you have time in the future. We can't rely on Dongsheng alone."
"I understand. I'll try to go every one or two days."
The aunt nodded repeatedly, and at the end, she sighed: "Dongsheng is really particular about what he does. Lao Yi, you must build a good relationship with Dongsheng in the future."
"How could I not know this? Don't worry."
Yi Zhonghai reached out and picked up Yi Xiaoming: "Xiaoming, daddy will make you rabbit meat tomorrow, okay?"
"Okay." Yi Xiaoming replied with a smile.
Along with Yi Xiaoming's laughter, the four members of the family also laughed, and the laughter echoed in the room.
