No one can disturb my retirement life in the Red Mansion

Chapter 652 It’s the Jia family’s widow again

Ou Mengmeng opened her eyes and closed them again. She used to be an old lady in Jia Mansion. Although she was old, her life was actually quite comfortable. I can’t stop my two sons from being obedient! What should I do now? As soon as I open my eyes, I will almost go back to before liberation. So I'm not wearing it alone? Does it count as fast to wear if you wear it together?
At this time, there was loud crying in the dilapidated hut. She was lying on the kang. Under the kang, a fat middle-aged woman was crying, "Dongxu, my son, you left, let me But how to live..."

Ou Mengmeng closed her eyes, and memories entered her brain like a flood. Fortunately, her experience was much simpler than that of Jia Mu. I am Qin Huairu, and my family is from a rural area in the suburbs. Legend has it that a beautiful girl from all over the country, because she wanted to go to the city, Hua Ru He hired a matchmaker at a large price and introduced Jia Dongxu, a fitter at the steel rolling mill.

In five years, I gave birth to two children, and I am still pregnant with one. However, in the year of the great disaster, Jia Dongxu accidentally died at work due to hunger and fatigue. I'm having a funeral at home right now. Qin Huairu was so sad that he fainted. Let Ou Mengmeng come through.

Ou Mengmeng was a little depressed. She was so destined to be named Jia. Will she have to be a widow of the Jia family in this life? Is this harming yourself? I want to go home, and you leave me here again. Are you a human being?

However, when Ou Mengmeng thought about it, she was an old widow before, and now she is a young widow. Anyway, it’s fine if she is not given a male lead. If she is given a leading role, she will have to jump into a well, so let’s just leave it like that.

Close your eyes and think about it, there are still two years left in the difficult period, and there is a funeral at home, but the factory has not yet discussed it, why should we hold a funeral without discussing it? Who decided this?

Open your eyes and sit up.

"Sister Qin, don't move." A young girl with a round face next to her looked worried.

Ou Mengmeng realized that Lou Xiaomo, the future daughter-in-law of Xu Damao in the backyard, had a bad background, and the family hoped that she would find a good family to marry, which was also a form of protection.

The Xu family and his wife worked in the Lou family and were known as loyal servants. The Lou family also had the intention of entrusting their daughter to their loyal servants.

However, Ou Mengmeng didn't need to look at her memory to know that the Lou family had made a miscalculation. You really can’t marry your daughter to a loyal servant’s family, right? Can you want to marry Yingchun to the grandson of the Lai family? While they are taking away your property, they are also trampling your girls to death. When I see you, I must not forget that I was once your slave!

Judging from the memory of the original owner, Xu Damao was not a good person, and he always stayed with the original owner no matter what. In the eyes of the people in the courtyard, this guy does everything except good deeds.

Because the year is not good, the Lou family and the Xu family plan to hold a wedding for them until November to see if the situation is good. Lou Xiaomo, on the other hand, still has a bit of a petty bourgeoisie, thinking that he is in free love. He comes to the compound to play when he has nothing to do, and he becomes familiar with Qin Huairu.

Seeing her family like this, naturally she couldn't bear it and came over to help. I just secretly stuffed Qin Huairu with ten dollars. You know, Jia Dongxu, a second-level fitter, has a monthly salary of only 27.5 yuan.

Ou Mengmeng has not lived through this era, but from what her parents said, it is actually devaluation. 27.5 yuan is about the same as 2750 in later generations. However, people were frugal back then, and 27.5 yuan could support a family. In later generations, 2750 yuan was in the capital, not to mention a whole family, not even one person could support it. So Lou Xiaomo gave her ten yuan, which was a big favor.

Ou Mengmeng smiled at Lou Xiaomo and put the money back into Lou Xiaomo's palm. Seeing what Lou Xiaomo was about to say, she shook her head slightly.

She got off the kang, got up and went out. Fortunately, it was almost summer. When she opened the door, the wind blew in, and she felt much more awake. There was a shed set up outside, and the three uncles in the courtyard were sitting and talking. When they saw Qin Huairu coming out, He stopped talking.

"Sister Qin, why are you out?" A young man in his mid-twenties came over wiping his hands with a look of concern on his face.

"It's okay." Ou Mengmeng waved her hand. This was Si Zhu, who lived across the street from the Jia family.

The original owner lived in a courtyard, Sanjin's courtyard. Legend has it that a prince lived there before. In fact, from Ou Mengmeng's professional perspective, this must be a high-class family. After all, it is in the inner city, close to the roots of the royal city. However, because there are only three entrances, and from the standard point of view, it is still far away from the structure of the royal palace. .

Sha Zhu's original surname was He, and his name was He Yuzhu. His father, He Daqing, was a famous chef of Tan's cuisine in the city, but he remarried a few years ago and moved to the city where his wife lived. He passed the house to his son. Of course, the legend in the compound was that He Daqing eloped with the widow and abandoned his children.

Their family is the only owner with property rights in this courtyard. The other families work in the city, and then register with the street real estate department with their household registration, and pay monthly rent based on the area.

Therefore, their family is considered a big family in the courtyard and lives in the north room of the middle courtyard. Facing the original owner, the Jia family, he was unconsciously condescending.

Because He Yuzhu's father ran away when he was sixteen or seventeen, leaving him and his nine-year-old sister behind, he was a bit left-handed. He would get into trouble whenever he disagreed and refused to recognize his relatives. In addition, He Daqing called him "Silly Zhu" when he was young, so This nickname has been passed down. He has a good heart but a bad mouth.

Ou Mengmeng didn't want to get involved with him, so she went directly to the three stewards. From Qin Huairu's memory, it can be seen from Qin Huairu's memory that in the early days of liberation, for safety reasons, a system similar to the ancient Baojia system was established. Their compound was entered three times, and each time a steward was in charge, he was divided according to age. Or the prestige is divided into one, two, and three.

Now the grand master of this compound is Yi Zhonghai from the Intermediate Courtyard, an eighth-level fitter in the factory, and also Jia Dongxu's master. He is considered a good person. Because he has no children, he has always been very fond of Jia Dongxu. From the memory of the original owner, Jia Dongxu told her that Yi Zhonghai hoped that Jia Dongxu would provide for him in his old age. After all, the country had just been liberated not long ago, so for them, son-disciple and son-disciple were quite popular.

"Huai Ru, wake up." Yi Zhonghai said hello without getting up.

"Huai Ru, the first uncle is discussing with us a donation to your family..." The third uncle Yan Bugui said while holding a piece of paper.

The third uncle is a Chinese teacher at the nearby Hongxing Primary School. He calls himself an intellectual, but he is a bit like an old-style scholar. He supports his family with one person's income, and he also pays attention to fairness to his family. His mantra is to have enough food, clothing, and calculations. You will suffer poverty when you arrive. So everyone kept calling him Yan Laoxi, saying that he was as stingy as the Shanxi people. But for Ou Mengmeng, people who value fairness are actually not bad people. Their serious life is admirable.

Ou Mengmeng smiled at the third uncle and turned to the first uncle Yi Zhonghai: "Wait a minute, aren't there people coming from the factory? People die in the factory, not only due to work, but also from work-related injuries during working hours. There are no deaths now. An explanation?”

Ou Mengmeng is a sweat, so in this prosperous era, people are so kind, so I don't say anything, but I have to donate to them.

In this year, even food is struggling... No, this is just the beginning. There has been no rain in the north, so it indicates that there will be difficulties, and the food supply has begun to be reduced. However, the people, especially the people in Baojing City across the country, do not have such a crisis yet. consciousness.

But she is not the kind of person who is willing to accept help from others. Since you are a master and Jia Dongxu's master, you can always give me a word, right?
Yi Zhonghai was startled. He planned to talk to them alone at night. Now a country girl asked him about it. He was a little annoyed, but restrained himself and cleared his throat, "The next step..."

"Zhuzi, do me a favor and get a pallet truck for me. I'll drag the person to the factory gate and ask the leader to explain to me why the person who worked hard is gone." Ou Mengmeng, forget it, she has been there for the rest of her life. As a leader, she knew what Yi Zhonghai meant as soon as he raised his head. This is an agreement reached between the Jia family and the factory. But Ou Mengmeng didn't want to think about what Yi Zhonghai wanted to achieve from this agreement, but she didn't like the feeling that the initiative was not in her hands.

"Qin Huairu, what do you want to do? Is this the time to make trouble?" Yi Zhonghai's face darkened, "I have made an agreement with the factory leader to let you take over the shift. Even if you are an apprentice, you can get Dongzi's second-level fitter job. The salary is 27.5. The factory will also give you a one-time subsidy. If you make such a fuss, the factory will lose face. You..."

Yi Zhonghaikou is threatened.

"Master, you are Dongzi's master, and I respect you. However, please don't interfere in this matter. I'm making trouble for you, but you interfered and unjustly offended the leader. This is not good." Ou Mengmeng still smiled. For a moment, he said slowly, but then looked back at Shazhu, "Cart."

Silly Zhu was stunned for a moment and pointed to the side. In fact, Jia Dongxu was on the trolley. He just pulled him back from the factory. He thought that he would be sent to the crematorium soon, so he stopped moving.

Ou Mengmeng nodded and thought about it, "Third uncle, you don't work in the factory. Please come with me and help be a witness."

The third uncle is a man of culture. At this moment, he suddenly understood that the first uncle and the second uncle were both workers in the factory. If they really made trouble, they were not good-looking. He had nothing to do with the factory and had nothing to do with it. It's still okay to tell him to make trouble and just ask her to be a witness. He quickly stood up, but was held down by Yi Zhonghai again.

"Qin Huairu, what are you thinking about? Do you still have organizational discipline? Dongxu..."

"Are you member D?" Ou Mengmeng found it interesting. It meant lack of organizational discipline. She often used this to criticize people. However, when she said this, it also meant that she was unreasonable and was being restrained by discipline.

"No." Yi Zhonghai's face turned red all of a sudden. It was very difficult for him to get into D at this moment. Of course, he had never submitted an application form for admission to D.

"Are you a cadre?" Ou Mengmeng felt that she was a bit ungrateful. She knew clearly that he was not, so she asked specifically.

"What do you want to say?" Yi Zhonghai's face turned red and his hands shook.

"Don't point your fingers. If you don't respect others, you also don't respect yourself. What does my negotiation with the factory have to do with you? The conditions just now were negotiated by you and the factory. Dare I ask, apart from being Dongzi's master? "Do you have any other biological relationship with Dongzi? Did Dongzi's biological mother and I authorize you to talk about it? Why should the person named Yi make the decision?" Ou Mengmeng looked at it coldly. Yi Zhonghai, "Also, do you know the regulations on work-related injuries? Don't you dare to agree to the conditions randomly? Don't think that you are an eighth-level worker. When it is time to learn culture, you have to learn culture and read books when you have nothing to do. Otherwise, you will not know if you are sold." Why." (End of chapter)
