The Rebirth of the Rain Pillar of the Siheyuan

Chapter 33 Xu Damao Picking Mushrooms

next morning
He Yuzhu opened the door to let in some air, seeing Xu Damao coming out of the house with his schoolbag on his back, He Yuzhu smiled.

"Big Chrysalis is going to school! Let me sing a song for you! The name of the song is "Xu Da Chrysalis Picking Mushrooms""

Xu Damao blushed with anger, looking around.

"Xu Damao, who picks mushrooms, grows a little mushroom in the jungle... thieves..."

He Yuzhu was singing happily, when a ball of snow hit his forehead, Xu Damao laughed happily, and ran out of the compound happily.

Xu Damao ran out of the courtyard, turned around and saw that Sha Zhu didn't catch up, he was surprised at once, as long as Sha Zhu was provoked before, Sha Zhu would definitely catch up and clean himself up, otherwise he would never give up, isn't the change now too big?

Thinking about the song he sang, the tune is quite nice, this silly Zhu is not really sick, is he?Mental illness?Or neurosis?

He Yuzhu wiped off the snow from his face, looked at Da Mao who ran away happily, and laughed heartily, and finally ate a turtle,

Good!This is youth!

~~~

Go to the kitchen to look at the hearth, while the coal fire is about to go out, quickly add some broken firewood, and throw in a few coal balls.

After finishing the housework, tidy up myself, check the time, at nine o'clock in the morning, I think I should go to the Pigeon Market in Deshengmen.

I didn't dare to ride a bicycle and just walked like this. I didn't feel the coldness after the snow on the street. On the contrary, there were some signs of snow melting. I remembered that after the drought and insect disasters, the birds were all gone. I don't know who eats the insects. Edit?
After the snow, the Pigeon City is very lively. It seems that everyone knows that the road is not good after the snow, and the patrol team will not come.

"Brother, do you remember me?"

asked a man wearing a hood.

He Yuzhu felt that this person's attire looked familiar,
"Bicycle, watch ticket!" The man looked at him expectantly.

Thinking about it, He Yuzhu, a ticket dealer in Pigeon Market in Xizhimen, thought he had something to do with him, so he asked casually,

"Ah! Remembered, what do you want me to do?"

"It's okay! I just happened to meet and came to say hello to my brother."

He Yuzhu was quite polite when he saw this man,

"Okay then, see you later."

After speaking, he got into the crowd, and when he looked back, he was nowhere to be seen.

These are all human beings!He Yuzhu smiled, lamenting that it is not easy for people to mix in any line of work. If you are not clear-sighted and your heart is not clean, you will suffer sooner or later.

Youyou wandering around, He Yuzhu is an eye-opener, how much stick powder you added to this stick noodle, and you dare to ask for fifty cents, you are so poor!

Look at this hungry chicken, it's so thin that it's a small Jingming, it's a dry chicken!

Why!This handmade basket is well woven, go and have a look,

"Ma'am! How much do you pay for this basket?"

"Ah? You speak up! I can't hear you behind my ears."

The old lady in her seventies pointed to her ear and yelled at He Yuzhu. Through He Yuzhu's yelling and gestures, the deal was finally completed.

There was a group of people not far away, and He Yuzhu, carrying four wicker baskets, squeezed into the crowd to have a look, huh!radio!
An old man in his 50s, with a brand-new radio set under his feet, He Yuzhu looked at the old man, well-dressed and wearing glasses, without saying a word, holding a sign in his hand, with a line of beautiful handwriting written on it , Shanghai 132-type electronic tube radio, produced by Shanghai Broadcasting Equipment Factory in 1959, price: 100 yuan.

He Yuzhu looked at the price, it was really not cheap, you can buy a new one with some extra money, but if you count radio air tickets, or [-] industrial coupons, the price is not much different, but this is the pigeon market!Who would buy it at such an expensive price? He Yuzhu looked around to see the excitement, but no one came forward to inquire, so he squeezed out of the crowd again.

~~~

When He Yuzhu finally turned back, the road was already covered with snow and water.

Carefully avoiding the puddles, he was finally splashed with muddy water by a bicycle. Seeing the speeding away car, He Yuzhu's thoughts of cursing also turned off.

When I entered Nanluoguxiang, I took advantage of no one to fill the two baskets with eggs, so I went back to the courtyard graciously, and won the envy and hatred of the aunts after entering the courtyard.

When I got home, I cooked a small pot of sticky batter with the stove, but there were three eggs in it, and it was served with pork head pressed meat, and I had a delicious meal.

In the afternoon, I rode a classic car and started looking for a car repair shop, planning to buy a scooter.

After going around for a long time, I didn’t find a suitable one, either the price was too high or the quality was not good. A kind car repair shop told him that there was a small factory on Qipan Street that specialized in carts.

At the Red Star Rickshaw Factory on Qipan Street, He Yuzhu was asking the price when an uncle came out of the office,
"Boy, do you want to buy a car?"

He Yuzhu hurried over when he heard someone greet him.

"Yes, uncle, what price will I buy a car?"

The uncle pointed to the cart in the yard and said,
"The most expensive one is [-] for people, [-] for a large cart, and [-] for a smaller cart."

He Yuzhu saw a car with a cargo bed in front and a pedal frame in the back, with a very simple structure.

"Uncle, why haven't I seen that scooter before? Is there anything different?"

"That car is not common in our capital. Everyone calls it a donkey. Its advantage is that it can be loaded. The disadvantage is that it is heavy to ride. It is far worse than the scooter in our capital. Its rear frame can be removed, which is very easy. In addition, after the rear frame is removed, its front bucket can stand up without occupying any space.”

Thinking of seeing this car often in Northeast China, He Yuzhu asked,

"Is there a lot of cars in the Northeast?"

The uncle was overjoyed, and told He Yuzhu,

"The Northeast is full of these things. Even the scooters are different from ours. Their scooters also have a cargo bed, and the body is low. This one was also ordered by a Northeasterner."

In the end, He Yuzhu spent [-] to win the soft and hard foam. The empty bike was not heavy, but the bike always turned to one side. He Yuzhu got out of the bike and researched and found that the nails on the rear frame were too thin, resulting in too much gap in the rear frame. , the car turned to one side, and went back to find the uncle to replace the spikes. This time the ride was much better.

He went directly to the Armed Forces Department and contacted Uncle Li through the phone number of Mengang.

I rode back with four baskets of apples. The bike was really heavy. The handlebars were also heavy due to the load in the front. If you found a place where no one was around, put it away and ride the donkey backwards, let’s walk back!

~~~

Back to the courtyard with a basket of apples

The aunts shot angry little green arrows from their eyes and shot at He Yuzhu.

I just lay down and there was a knock on the door. When I opened the door, it was a big mom. The big mom stood at the door and said,

"Zhuzi, aunt won't go in. I steamed a pot of Erhe noodle cakes and got you some. Thank you anyway! Let us stay with you for two days, otherwise the child will be frozen."

"Ouch! You are too polite, big mother, just wait a moment."

After taking the cake and returning to the house, he took out four apples and said to the big mother,
"I'll give the children four apples to eat. When the uncle comes back, ask him to let him know. I'll distribute an apple to each child under the age of eight."

The first mother admired He Yuzhu's generosity, and happily took the apple back, ready to give the two children a taste.

He Yuzhu was sitting on the chair and smoking a cigarette. He felt very annoying, not because he was reluctant to give it to the children in the courtyard, but because he hated these false feelings. If you are not willing to share, the people in the courtyard will stand behind you and say three Dao Si, poke your spine.

I really want to move out and have my own small courtyard, but thinking about the current situation, how dare I buy a house!Only after seven or six years did the form become clear before I dared to jump up and down, complaining feebly in my heart.

~~~

As soon as the door was locked and ready to catch the rainwater after school, Director Yang walked in through the doorway in the backyard, smiling brightly before he got close.

"He Yuzhu, I'm here to trouble you again. There is an important reception in the factory tomorrow, and I need your help."

He Yuzhu looked straight at him with an expression on his face and didn't speak.

Seeing that the smile on Director Yang's face gradually disappeared, He Yuzhu said,
"Do you know what resignation is? The first time it was for your face, I didn't expect your face to be so big! And important entertainment? The important entertainment goes to the Eighth Building, to Quanjude! In my opinion, you are not because of your own mouth !"

Factory Manager Yang was dumbfounded by He Yuzhu's scolding, and his face gradually became gloomy and cold.
"Do you know who you're talking to?"

At this time, He Yuzhu saw that Uncle Li and a rather dignified military officer in his sixties entered the backyard.

"What's wrong with me just talking to you like this? What are you pretending to do with me?"

He Yuzhu just looked at him with a sideways smile, looking like a ruffian.

Director Yang said to He Yuzhu with unusually gloomy eyes,

"Don't you think that I can't fix you if you resign? I can fix you anytime, anywhere!"

Before He Yuzhu could speak, the majestic old man said,

"Who do you want to punish! Who do you want to punish!"

Factory Manager Yang looked back and saw that there were two dignified military officers. He didn't say anything when he saw the military rank, then looked at He Yuzhu, and left without saying a word.

Uncle Li asked with concern, "Who is that person? Why did he threaten you?"

"The leader of the rolling mill, Uncle Li, what do you want me to do?"

"Come to Zhuzi, let me introduce you, this is Minister Guo of our Armed Forces Department!"

He Yuzhu hurried forward and stretched out his hands enthusiastically,

"Hello Minister Guo! Hello!"

Minister Guo held He Yuzhu's hands and said enthusiastically,

"On behalf of all the soldiers of the Armed Forces, thank you! You have helped us a lot!"

It turned out that the higher-ups learned that the purchase amount was relatively large, and half of the share was distributed to many front-line units. Therefore, the Armed Forces Department was rewarded. This time they came to He Yuzhu to invite him to the banquet.

He Yuzhu learned that his sister had been picked up by Aunt Li, so he went back to the house and changed his clothes, and followed them in the car to the Armed Forces Department.

On the way, Uncle Li and Minister Guo learned about Director Yang. The two looked down on this kind of carelessness and agreed with what He Yuzhu said. How could they set up a small canteen in the factory without selfishness.

In the canteen of the Armed Forces Department, He Yuzhu witnessed a military banquet. There were only eight people including He Yuzhu among the giants in the department. One piece of sea fish and one plate of stewed meat were considered the best dishes. He Yuzhu was terrified when he drank all his drinks in bowls. up.

For He Yuzhu's dedication, the Ministry could not use funds to compensate, and said in the words that it would be helpful for him to serve as a soldier. (This paragraph is too difficult, stepped on mine many times)
In the farewell of everyone, the banquet ended perfectly, and He Yuzhu was thrown into the jeep by Uncle Li.
