Siheyuan: Start with a Truck Driver

Chapter 82 Jia Zhang fights Liu Haizhong
Tired of eating big fish and meat every day.

After work, Wang Weidong rode a bicycle to Dongdan Vegetable Market.

Dongdan Vegetable Market was founded in 1902.

Formerly known as the East Vegetable Market, it is the oldest vegetable market in the capital.

It is said that this was also the place where the head was beheaded.

In the early years, BJ did not have a place dedicated to selling vegetables.

Every day, there will be vegetable vendors in the alleys carrying poles and carts to sell.

Although you can buy vegetables without going out of the alley, the vegetables sold by the vegetable vendors are always the same.

And due to the different purchase channels, the price also varies a lot.

In order to meet the needs of the citizens, the vegetable market came into being at the beginning of the last century.

Wang Weidong came to Dongdan Vegetable Market for the first time. It was a bit novel, and he rode a bicycle around.

In the vegetable market, a space layout with large bays and high columns is adopted.

The common people come one after another, and the stream is endless, it looks like a train station.

There are shops selling cabbage, leeks, rapeseed, spinach, radish, amaranth, coriander... and other green vegetables.

There are also shops selling rare items such as bamboo shoots, sea cucumbers, squid from the south, and mushrooms from outside the customs.

"Ma'am, how do you sell the cabbage?"

"One penny is one catty, and the tender and tender ones are all freshly picked from the ground."

"One catty."

"Uncle, how do you sell the eggs?"

"Two cents apiece."

"Ten."

After shopping for vegetables, Wang Weidong rode his bicycle back to the courtyard.

Along the way, many people hurriedly greeted him.

Although Wang Weidong rejected the invitation of the ministry, with his contributions, it will be a matter of time before he becomes a leader.

Back to the house.

Cooking.

Cabbage and egg noodles.

Scramble the eggs until they are browned, add the cabbage and stir fry.

Add water, and when the water boils, add the noodles.

Soon, a bowl of fragrant egg noodles came out of the oven.

As soon as he picked up his rice bowl, he heard the sound of a broken gong coming from outside the door.

"Everyone is paying attention, there will be a meeting in the middle court tonight, and there will be important announcements." The second aunt beat the gong and announced from door to door.

Yan Bugui was using a scale to weigh the waste he picked up from outside, he was afraid that the weight of the waste would be inaccurate.

Since getting a bicycle, Yan Bugui's scrap picking business has become more and more prosperous.

There are big gains every day.

When he heard the sound of the gong, he poked his head, with a puzzled look on his face: "In the past, did the aunt call people for a meeting?"

"Why is it the second aunt's turn today?"

"Did Liu Haizhong usurp the throne?"

At this time, Yan Jiefang happened to be off work, walked in from the outside, and heard this sentence.

With a mysterious look on his face, he attached himself to Yan Bugui's ear.muttered for a while.

Yan Bugui was so startled that he hit his foot with the weight.

Fortunately, the cotton boots are thick in winter, so I can hold back the pain, sucking my mouth, and asked in surprise: "Impossible, Qin Huairu really stole twenty catties of food stamps?"

"Why not? The whole factory has spread the word, and Qin Huairu is still locked up in the security department." Yan Jiefang despises.

There were a lot of people in the courtyard, and before a meal, everyone knew that Qin Huairu was caught stealing.

Except Jia's.

Liu Haizhong was also afraid of this old godmother, and wanted to wait until the meeting to announce it.

Seeing that the sky was getting darker and darker, Qin Huairu hadn't come back yet.

Jia Zhangshi stood at the door and looked around, with a vicious expression on his face: "Qin Huairu, this bitch, where is he running wild again, why don't you come back and cook!"

"Don't let her eat at night." Jia Xudong lay weak on the bed.

Bang Geng took Xiao Dang and Xiao Huaihua to the field all afternoon, and squatted at the door staring at Wang Weidong's bicycle after a full meal.

After Wang Weidong finished his meal, he cleaned up briefly and opened the door.

On the road paved with blue bricks and covered with frost, there were already people walking towards the middle courtyard.

This is a big melon.

It is a fool not to eat melons!

Wang Weidong also put on a thick padded jacket and a cotton scarf.

The scarf is said to be knitted by girls with wool, which is more warm.

Cough. What are you thinking!
What a joy to be single!
Wrapped up like rice dumplings, Wang Weidong joined the flow of people and headed for the middle courtyard.

As soon as he entered the middle courtyard, he saw Wuyang Wuyang's head.

In this cold weather, there are melons to eat, and everyone is in good spirits.

Wang Weidong squeezed into the crowd and saw that the layout of the rostrum today was a little different from the past.

The square table was actually covered with a red velvet blanket, on which were several plates filled with peanuts and melon seeds.

The benches have also been replaced with yellow-painted bar stools.

The elder Yi Haizhong sat in the middle, his face so gloomy that he wriggled out of the water.

The second uncle, Liu Zhonghai, sat on the right, with his hands folded in his arms, with a proud expression on his face.

The third master Yan Bugui sat on the left, staring at the melon seeds on the table.

The second aunt's hair was pulled up and tidied up very neatly.

Seeing that it was almost the end of the day, he picked up the melon seeds and peanuts on the plate and walked in front of everyone.

"This is a little wish from my old Liu, everyone have a taste."

In order to prepare for this courtyard meeting, Liu Haizhong took out all the snacks that he prepared to entertain guests during the Chinese New Year.

Facing melon seeds and peanuts, adults are better off, pinch some reservedly and put them in the palm of your hand.

The children are very naughty, reaching into the plate with their little hands and grabbing a lot.

In the blink of an eye, there were two big plates of melon seeds and peanuts, and there was nothing left.

Yan Bugui pursed his lips, I haven't eaten yet, old Liu's daughter-in-law really doesn't know how to do things.

Seeing the chaos at the scene, Liu Haizhong didn't care about buying people's hearts anymore, so he stood up and patted the table.

"Today, everyone is called together, and there is an important announcement!"

"I'm entrusted by the security department of our Red Star Rolling Mill."

He was stopped by Yi Zhonghai in the middle of his sentence: "Liu Haizhong, do you have to announce this kind of thing in front of everyone?"

"Yi Haizhong, look at what you said. We haven't lost a needle or a thread in our compound for more than ten years, and now there is a thief. Do you want to hide this kind of thing from everyone?" Liu Haizhong sneered.

In the past, he always gave an opening speech and then stood aside.

Today I was finally able to enjoy the officialdom, the sound was so loud that the old raven on the dead tree flew away with a "thump".

There are people who don't know the truth in the crowd, whispering.

"Thief? A while ago, Xu Damao's chicken was just lost. Now there are thieves again?"

"I think it's better to learn from Wang Weidong and buy a big iron lock for security."

"Keep down, Qin Huairu heard it, and said that we despise him again."

"Hey, where is Qin Huairu?"

"Yeah, silly Zhu is nowhere to be seen either."

Hearing the discussion from the crowd, Yi Zhonghai knew that there was nothing he could do, so he could only sit down awkwardly.

Liu Zhonghai nodded complacently, picked up the enamel jar, blew on it, and tasted the high-quality broken pieces.

Only then did he prolong his voice and say, "Today, the security department caught Qin Huairu and stole [-] catties of food stamps! This is a scandal in our compound!"

As soon as these words came out, there was a "hiss" gasp in the crowd.

Everyone knows that Qin Huairu's hands and feet are not clean, and she likes to let Sha Zhu take things from the kitchen, but they didn't expect her to steal food stamps.

Jiazhang was hungry and stood in the crowd, trying to cheat melon seeds from children.

This sentence was like a thunderbolt in the clear sky, which shocked her brain.

No matter how much she scolded Qin Huairu for being a bad thing, she knew very well in her heart that without Qin Huairu, her lonely old woman would not enjoy the happiness she has now.

Qin Huairu was arrested
Jia Zhang's first reaction was to not believe it.

She squeezed into the crowd and yelled: "Liu Haizhong, you old bastard, you spit shit all over your mouth!"

Then, out of the corner of his eye, he saw a half-block brick on the ground.

Picking it up, he gritted his teeth and threw it viciously at Liu Zhonghai.
