Siheyuan: There are three little cats at home

Chapter 237
At 10:30 noon, the sun slowly climbed towards the center of the sky along the eastern skyline.

The group of young students standing in the Red Star rolling factory were still in high spirits, eloquently talking to the factory manager and others about the truth.

Xu Qing returned to the big office from the third workshop, drank tea from two large enamel teapots, and stood at the window with Qian Bing, Wei Shengli, Chen Guodong, Tian Zhongqing, and Wu Yuemei, looking out.

As for the workers in the factory, they were all standing at the door of their own workshops, watching the bustle with boredom, and discussing in low voices.

In the cafeteria, Silly Zhu sat with his hands in his pockets on the bench in the back kitchen, looking at the director of the cafeteria and other colleagues, with big eyes and small eyes, smoking a cigarette, waiting for whether to cook or not to cook at noon.

It seemed that it was almost time for dinner, but the fire in the back kitchen stove hadn't been lit yet.

Sha Zhu yawned, threw the cigarette butt into the stove, crossed his arms, bored to death, got up and wanted to go out to have a look.

But after thinking about it, the director didn't go out to look, so he was in no hurry.

He simply sat down on the bench again, tilted his head and looked at the two apprentices he had accepted in recent years.

Mahua and Fatty have been following Shazhu for some time.

They have learned a lot of crafts, but their level is still far from being a teacher.

Ma Hua learned to cook with Sha Zhu later than Fatty, and seeing him looking at him, he hurriedly picked up the tea that Sha Zhu had poured earlier, handed it to Sha Zhu and said:
"Master, drink some water, I'll go out and take a look for you."

While speaking, Ma Hua took off his white sleeves, turned around and was about to walk out of the back kitchen. The fat man secretly glanced sideways at Ma Hua, and twitched the corner of his mouth, revealing a sneer.

He wouldn't run errands for Sha Zhu like Ma Hua did.

Although the fat man learned how to cook from Shazhu, it is true.But from the bottom of my heart, I didn't look down on this master.

That is to say, Shazhu's culinary skills do have two brushes, otherwise the fat man would have changed his career long ago.

And Shazhu didn't like Fatty either, if the factory hadn't asked him to take him, he wouldn't be willing to teach him to death.

On the contrary, Ma Hua, Sha Zhu thinks he is a nice person, quick-witted and agile, not as procrastinating as the fat man, so relatively speaking, Sha Zhu likes to chatter with Ma Hua in the back kitchen.

After a while, Ma Hua ran back to the back kitchen and said to Sha Zhu:
"Master, the factory leader and those young youths are still in a stalemate."

Silly grinned happily, put down the white porcelain tea mug in his hand, put it aside, stood up, looked at the director of the cafeteria and said:
"Leader, I would like to ask you for instructions. Since I don't have to cook at noon today, I'll find a place to cuddle now."

The director of the cafeteria stared at Shazhu with a displeased face, and wanted to reprimand him, but after thinking about it, he finally said nothing.

Let Sha Zhu walk past him swaggeringly.

In the past, he had nothing to do with the silly pillar, but now it's a mess. Whether he, the director, will be or not tomorrow is unknown. If he doesn't make it, he will be dismissed at night.

During this period of time, there were quite a few people who were published in the newspapers.

Each of them has a much bigger background than him, and it didn't happen overnight.

Why should he be unhappy with Sha Zhu himself, if Sha Zhu trips him behind his back at this juncture, the gain will outweigh the loss.

As soon as Sha Zhu left the crowd, he slipped out of the back kitchen and walked towards Xu Qing's office.

At this time, the factory was full of chaos, and Sha Zhu walked to Xu Qing's office, but no one said anything.

But when Xu Qing saw Silly Zhu, he secretly thought that the factory would be on holiday at noon.

Usually at this point, the back kitchen of the cafeteria is busy, but now, Sha Zhu can leisurely come to find him, obviously the back kitchen has not been notified to prepare lunch.

As Xu Qing expected, within 10 minutes, the loudspeaker in the factory came out, informing everyone in the factory to get off work.

Xu Qing, Wu Yuemei and Silly Zhu followed the crowd downstairs and headed towards the factory gate.

The factory manager and his people did not continue to entangle with the gang of young people.

It doesn't make sense. It doesn't matter if I keep working all the time. It's better to ignore it and let the workers get off work and let the matter rest in peace.

However, when the group of young students saw the workers rushing out of the factory, they cheered and screamed one by one, showing excitement, as if they had won a battle.

When Xu Qing and Sha Zhu passed by them, they looked sideways and sighed in their hearts: "It's as long as you are happy."

Silly Zhu put his hands in his pockets, frowned, and couldn't figure out why these young people were so happy.

But after thinking about it, the factory was disturbed by them today and couldn't carry out work and production.

Thinking of this, Sha Zhu also grinned happily.

Ten minutes after leaving the factory, Xu Qing suddenly remembered that Er Mazi said he wanted to buy him a drink, and stopped immediately.

Silly Zhu didn't know why, he looked at the dazed Xu Qing and asked:
"Qingzi, what's wrong?"

Xu Qing sighed softly, and continued to walk back towards the compound with Sha Zhu, while saying: "Hey, I missed a drink, but it doesn't matter, there will be opportunities in the future."

Back in the compound, Xu Qing saw in the front yard that the bicycle of the third master Yan Bugui had already parked quietly at the door of the house, he couldn't help but smiled wryly, and secretly felt that the situation at the school was not very good.

In the middle courtyard, Mrs. Jia and Zhang were sitting at the door of the house, holding the soles of their shoes. The first mother was holding a dustpan, shaking the millet with some worms, and drying it in the sun.

Seeing that Shazhu and Xu Qingda came back at noon, the two were surprised for a while.

But they soon realized that the factory had stopped working, and each of them continued to work on their own tasks.

When Xu Qing returned to the backyard, he saw that his second and third brothers, as well as the little girl, were all in the house.

The Hongxing Primary School where the third master, Yan Bugui, was in was closed, and the schools where the younger brothers and sisters studied were naturally the same.

Xu Fengming saw his eldest brother coming back at noon, and immediately ran to the door with a playful smile and said:
"Brother, I didn't skip class and go home. Our school is closed today."

Xu Qing was too lazy to argue with the glib third brother, crossed the threshold, walked into the room, saw his second brother Xu Aiguo sitting on the edge of the kang, reading a book seriously, turned his head to Feng Ming beside him and said:

"Look at what your second brother is doing, why don't you read a book yourself?"

Xu Fengming stretched out his hand and scratched his head, his dark eyeballs rolled around in his sockets, and he grinned and said:

"Brother, I'm not that material. It's not like this year the third-year students in our school will not be able to take the entrance exam for university entrance, I think."

Xu Qing was too lazy to listen to the third brother's nonsense here, knowing that he didn't want to read, so he was making excuses here.

If he wasn't that material, the two brothers Liu Guangtian and Liu Guangfu of the second uncle's family in the courtyard would have bumped their heads to death!

"You're not in the mood to read, right? Well, take all the clothes of me, your second brother, and Xiaoya to the courtyard to be washed."

Xu Qing has plenty of ways to cure him.

Xu Fengming's face suddenly collapsed. After thinking about it, he hurriedly walked to the schoolbag hanging on the wall, reached out and took out a book, and pretended to sit on the edge of the kang, looking down.

When Xu Qing turned to wash his hands, Xu Fengming secretly put down the book in his hand and glanced at his elder brother.

Xu Qing noticed it, but he didn't care about it. He knew that the third brother didn't care about reading at all, but now, if he is not allowed to study, could it be possible to let him go wandering around with those people in the street?

After Xu Qing washed his hands and wiped them clean with a towel, he walked into the kitchen and called out the little girl to read in the front room with his second and third brothers.

As for the things in the kitchen, I took over by myself.
