The train driver in the courtyard

Chapter 194 Calculation
Inside Xu's house.

A few people chatted and chatted, and the meal was over for half an hour before it finally came to an end.

This meal can be described as a feast for the guests and the host.

Xu Jixiang showed his strength in front of Lou Zhenhua, laying a solid foundation for marrying his daughter-in-law.

Lou Zhenhua also ate seafood that he hadn't eaten in a week, which was a feast for his mouth.

After dinner.

After Xu's mother cleaned up the leftovers, she brewed West Lake Longjing for a few people.

With the faint scent of tea, Lou Zhenhua pretended not to ask, "Old Xu, that Li Aiguo just now is your neighbor, and you have a good relationship?"

"what?!"

Xu Jixiang is such a smart person.

It has been confirmed from Lou Zhenhua's attitude just now that the two are at odds.

Hastily waved his hands to draw a clear line.

"It's just an ordinary neighbor. Li Aiguo is a bit arrogant and doesn't fit in. We don't communicate with each other at all on weekdays."

"Really?" Lou Zhenhua gave him a deep look.

Mother Xu is a servant of the Lou family.

When Xu Jixiang was young, he worked as a helper in Lou's family, so he knew Lou Zhenhua very well.

The old fox didn't believe him.

Xu Jixiang secretly kicked Xu Damao under the table.

Xu Damao quickly stood up, took out a Zhonghua cigarette and lit it for Lou Zhenhua, and said with a smile: "Father, you still have the guts, knowing that Zhang Gangzhu lives in the backyard, you don't have to be afraid."

"Zhang Gangzhu? That brat from Zhang Shan's family?"

Lou Zhenhua puffed out his nostrils, and said disdainfully, "Da Mao, I am a patriotic capitalist, the vice chairman of the Federation of Industry and Commerce, and a well-known person in the capital.

Besides, what happened back then has already been concluded, and it was Zhang Shan's illegal operation that caused the injury.

That eighth-level worker in your compound can testify.

What can Zhang Gangzhu do to me! "

"Yes Yes Yes"

Xu Damao successfully changed the subject, and was elated.

Lou Zhenhua went on to say: "This is liberation. If it had been before liberation, I would have found Renri to mess with that brat."

Lou Zhenhua had met Zhang Gangzhu several times before.

The hatred in Zhang Gangzhu's eyes made him feel like he was sitting on pins and needles.

It's just that it was just liberated at that time, and the higher authorities were investigating the situation before liberation, and Lou Zhenhua was busy wiping his ass for the past, and he didn't care about Zhang Gangzhu.

"Yes, Zhang Gangzhu is just a little butcher. How can he be my father's opponent?"

After receiving the Zhonghua cigarette handed over by Xu Damao, Lou Zhenhua took a deep breath, his face flickering after the faint smoke.

"Old Xu, Da Mao is a good kid. I have no objection to his marriage with Xiao'e."

"Oh, that's great. Don't worry, we will treat Xiao'e like our own daughter."

Just when Xu Jixiang was so happy that he couldn't close his mouth from ear to ear.

Lou Zhenhua continued: "If you want them to get married, you have to give Damao the position of projectionist first."

"Ah?! Let me retire early." Xu Jixiang hesitated.

He is less than 40 years old this year.

He was several years younger than Yi Zhonghai and Liu Haizhong, and he was not even old enough to retire.

"Da Mao doesn't even have a formal job now, how can we support the family, how can we safely marry the moth over here." Tan Liya, who has been silent all this time, has a firm attitude.

Xu Jixiang was forced to the corner and could only nod his head: "I will apply to the labor department for sick leave next week, and hand over the position to Da Mao as soon as possible."

Lou Zhenhua achieved his goal, and he didn't have time to chat with Xu Jixiang.

Taking Tan Liya to visit the deaf old lady and Yi Zhonghai again.

The three were old acquaintances before liberation, and they had worked together on many things.

When the deaf old lady and Yi Zhonghai heard that Lou Xiao'e was going to marry into the courtyard house, they both expressed their welcome.

Yi Zhonghai even patted his chest and assured: "Old Lou, although Xiao'e's background is not good, but with me in the courtyard, if anyone dares to make an issue of her background, I will never forgive him!"

Lou Zhenhua: "."

The little eighth-level worker really pushed his nose and face.

If before liberation.

This would have sunk you into the sea long ago.

But the situation is pressing, who will let someone be a master!
Lou Zhenhua could only express his gratitude to Yi Zhonghai: "Old Yi, Xiao'e is young and ignorant, and you will have to take care of him in the future. Don't worry, I, Lao Lou, will not treat you badly."

The deaf old lady took the opportunity to make a strange request: "Director Lou, I went to you a while ago, and your secretary said that you were on a business trip. I want to ask, do you have any acquaintances in the police station of the locomotive depot? Can you help me?" Get your grandson out."

"no no."

Speaking of the railway locomotive depot, Lou Zhenhua's forehead was covered with sweat,
A while ago, he was punished by Li Aiguo to write a self-criticism in the locomotive depot.

Lou Zhenhua wanted to give the little driver some eye drops that night.

However, he found that although he was the vice chairman of the Federation of Industry and Commerce, he was very familiar with the leaders of various units in the capital, but he had nothing to do with the locomotive depot.

The locomotive depot and the local area are two entrances.

Most of the leaders and staff inside are railway soldiers and are comrades in the army.

What he feared most in his life was dealing with those people.

Lou Zhenhua was hit in the weak spot and fled with Tan Liya.

Looking at their backs, the deaf old lady heaved a long sigh.

"Silly Zhu, I am stupid Zhu, when will you come out?"

Xu family.

Take advantage of the time when Xu Damao went out to see Lou Zhenhua off.

Xu's mother closed the door, dragged Xu Jixiang into the back room, and muttered about what happened just now.

"Old Xu, Lou Zhenhua is the director of the rolling mill. It is an easy job to help our Damao become a full-time employee. Why does he have to let you retire early?"

Before, Xu Jixiang often said that Xu Damao should take over.

But that's just talk, the purpose is still to let Lou Zhenhua help Xu Damao become a regular.

After all, once the illness is retired, you can only get 60.00% of your salary every month, and you will also lose the extra money you get from showing movies.

Needless to say, you will also lose the opportunity to communicate with the old women and young wives in the countryside.

You are not a projectionist, who cares about you!

Xu Jixiang leaned on the chair, thought for a moment, and smiled wryly: "Why does he want me to retire? He obviously wants to drive the two of us back to our hometown. When Lou Xiao'e gets married, it will be easier for him to control our family, Da Mao. "

"Then you still agree?" Mother Xu's face changed drastically when she heard that.

Xu Jixiang snorted coldly: "What are you afraid of! The three generations of our Xu family are single, and Da Mao is the child of our Xu family. This will never change."

of course.

There are still some things that Xu Jixiang did not tell Xu's mother.

He was afraid that Mother Xu's big mouth would reveal it.

Xu Jixiang often goes to the countryside to show movies and finds that two major events are going on in the countryside.

One is that the cooperation group will be upgraded to a high-level commune. I heard that there is a big pot of rice, and there is no money for meals.

The other thing is to settle the previous affairs.

Those who have committed crimes in the past have to enter the study class.

Sooner or later, this trend will spread to the city.

Lou Zhenhua could hide the shitty things he did in the past from others, but he couldn't hide it from Xu Jixiang, who was a helper in his house.

When the time comes, Lou Zhenhua will have to run away if a report letter is sent out.

The Lou family fled in a hurry, and there was no way to take away all the gold and silver treasures hidden in the house.

Isn't it cheaper Xu Damao?
intermediary time.

He snatched his son back and also got the Lou family's property, which can be described as a win-win situation.

Win-win means Xu Jixiang wins twice.

Think beautiful things.

Xu Jixiang almost laughed out loud.

the other side.

Lou Zhenhua is also thinking about beautiful things.

"In recent years, there are not a few projectionists who have disappeared in rolling mills because they went to the countryside to show movies.

Xiao Tan, when the moth has a son with Xu Damao, we will kill Xu Damao.

Find someone pretending to be a robbery, and after killing them, throw them to the side of the road.

After the wild wolf passed at night, there were no bones left, and no one could find out.

"

This was the first time Lou Zhenhua had mentioned it to her.

Tan Liya was terrified when she heard it.

"Zhenhua, let's refrain from doing things that harm people's lives in the future, just in case"

Lou Zhenhua interrupted her with a cold face: "How do you think our Lou family's wealth came from? If I don't harm others, others will harm me!
What is the composition of our family, don't you know?
How many people are staring at us.

As long as our moths have babies.

That child is a poor man of three generations, and his father is a martyr who died for the people to show movies. No one can touch him, let alone moths.

If there are moths looking at our property, we can go to Hong Kong City with peace of mind.

"

Hearing that she could go to Hong Kong City, Tan Liya had no further objections.

He muttered in a low voice, "It's just that the moth has a stubborn temper, so I still have to persuade him."

As the saying goes, people's hearts are separated from each other, and each has its own calculations.

In the end who can calculate who, only God knows.

Li Aiguo ate at Aunt Liu's house for lunch.

Not just him.

There are also Wang Dakui and Zhang Erpao.

The rice is stick noodle porridge, black corn bread, and the dishes are a plate of hot and sour large intestine and a plate of crab.

The so-called Sai Crab is a dish cooked with fish and eggs.

Sai crabs are fragrant and full-bodied. After Li Aiguo carefully cooks them, the fish tastes like crab meat, and the egg yolk has the same rustling taste as crab roe. It is really delicious.

"good to eat!"

After He Yushui took a sip, he couldn't help admiring.

"Eat more if it tastes good." Aunt Liu gave He Yushui a doting look, and gave her another chopstick.

"Mom, that's enough, if you eat any more, you'll get fat."

He Yushui blushed.

"It's okay, after dinner, you help us to work in the courtyard, just take this opportunity to lose weight." Li Aiguo said with a smile.

"Da Zayuan?" He Yushui was surprised.

While eating, Wang Dakui explained: "We rented a yard in the alley behind the community hospital and planned to open a waste shop."

Aunt Liu frowned: "In this world, can private individuals make a living?"

"It's okay, it's under the name of the street office." Wang Dakui explained to Aunt Liu.

"That's good, that's good." Aunt Liu nodded: "Yu Shui, Comrade Da Kui is a patriotic friend, and we should help him with his livelihood. You eat more food, and we will all help later."

"Uh-huh."

He Yushui started to eat in big gulps.

This dish was so delicious, she finally found a good excuse.

More people eat steamed buns, more people have more power.

With five or six people, the courtyard was completely cleaned up in one afternoon.

"Brother Aiguo, it's hot, come drink mung bean tea."

at dusk.

Aunt Liu burned a pot of mung bean tea and asked He Yushui to bring it in an enamel basin.

The little girl walked a mile or two with the basin.

His face was flushed with exhaustion, and sweat was dripping from his forehead.

Putting the enamel basin on the stone table, he stood beside him and gasped for breath.

"Thank you, sister Yushui."

Li Aiguo washed his face in the wooden bucket, and took the towel hanging around his neck to wipe it clean.

Call Wang Dakui and Zhang Erpao over for tea.

The taste of mung bean soup is fresh and pleasant, which makes people feel a refreshing breath.

In the hot summer.

After a while, drink a bowl of mung bean soup, the pores are relaxed, and the whole body is refreshed.

Wang Dakui wiped the sweat from his forehead, turned his head to look at the dilapidated house, and said, "Brother Aiguo, isn't the engineering team from the locomotive depot repairing the house at your house? We can ask them to help us tidy up these dilapidated houses."

Zhang Erpao raised his hand: "There is also a wall, the wall must be painted white, it will be beautiful."

"Snapped!"

Before he finished speaking, Wang Dakui slapped Wang Dakui on the head.

"It doesn't cost money to build the fence. We only have so little money, and we have to focus on important things first. I'm the manager now, and you, the buyer, have to listen to me."

Zhang Erpao rubbed his head and pouted his mouth: "I just want to make a suggestion. Is there such a cousin as you?"

"Fuck, can you two calm down a bit?"

Li Aiguo let go of the enamel bowl, and his face straightened, "At first, I also wanted to clean up the yard, but after thinking about it carefully, it would be good if the yard is broken."

Zhang Erpao raised his sleeves and squeezed his nose, a little confused: "What's the benefit? The benefit of the rain? Or the benefit of the wind?"

"Snapped"

Comrade Buyer received another slap on the forehead.

"Listen to Brother Aiguo, don't interrupt."

Li Aiguo stood up, pointed to the dilapidated room and said: "Do one line, be like a line, we collect waste, we have to look like a waste collection, it should be dilapidated.

If it was cleaned up like Lao Mo's, with resplendent gold and bright lights, would customers dare to come to the door? "

Wang Dakui thought it was really the case.

"Yeah, old Mo's place, I feel scared when I see it. We ordinary people walk around. We only go to those dirty fly houses."

Li Aiguo continued: "Later, you will go to the wood factory to find a broken board, write on it with a brush, use it as a signboard, hang it on the gate, and we can officially open for business."

Although Wang Dakui felt a little shabby, he still nodded heavily.

After drinking the mung bean soup, he got on the donkey and ran out of the scrap shop.
