Siheyuan: There are three little cats at home

Chapter 277 The little girl went to work early in the morning

The starry sky is clear, the cold wind is raging, the night is deep and the moon is bright.

At around ten o'clock in the evening, Xu Qingcai left Director Liu's house, slightly drunk.

After pushing the bicycle for a while, he turned over and rode on.

Director Liu was not polite about the wine that Xu Qing took today, he just opened it and drank it all with Xu Qing.

It's rare to have a thousand cups of wine with a bosom friend, so Xu Qing and Director Liu were able to chat, and the matter naturally went smoothly.

In fact, Director Liu is mainly optimistic about Xu Qing, or appreciate him.

Xu Qing is young and promising, has a good appearance, speaks and does things, and is very decent, not flattering, but every word is on point.

From director Liu's point of view, Xu Qing is a friend worth making friends with.

After all, with his status, he has met too many people, and there are not five or three people who ask for errands and gifts a day.

It's just that except for Xu Qing, no one can take things into his heart.

Director Liu is not short of cigarettes and alcohol. As for money, these days, he doesn’t dare or can’t.

If someone finds out, it will be planted.

And the industrial vouchers that Xu Qing took just met his needs.

Not too light, not too heavy, very suitable.

Of course, the most important thing is that the little girl has a high school education, and she can accept things quickly when she starts working, so he doesn't need to worry about it.

And he has a good relationship with Xu Qing.

In this way, Xu Qing also gave face, and he got what he wanted, so he naturally agreed to let the little girl work in the state-owned store.

Why not do something that kills two birds with one stone.

In fact, Xu Qing was also very happy.

The younger sister's work has been finalized and implemented. As the eldest brother, Xu Qing couldn't be happier.

At this moment, Xu Qing was blowing a cold wind, and under the illumination of the dim street lamps, he rode his bicycle back to the compound along the street with few people.

Cold is really cold, frozen is really cold.

Xu Qing was not riding fast, but when he returned to the compound, his ears were already red from the cold.

It was very quiet in the compound at the moment, and the house where the third master and the third mother lived in the front yard had all turned off the lights, and it was dark.

Only Yan Jiecheng and Yu Li's room was still brightly lit.

Although Yan Jiefang took advantage of his eldest brother Yan Jiecheng to make trouble and separated from the third uncle, the house he lived in was also dark at the moment.

When passing by the middle courtyard, Xu Qing saw Jia's house, Da Ye's house, and Sha Zhu's house, all of which were still lit.

Pushing the bicycle, Xu Qing saw Silly Zhu coming out of the house and was about to go to the bathroom, so they stood in the deserted middle courtyard and talked for a while in a low voice.

"Qingzi, what are you up to today? Is it your sister's work?"

Xu Qing nodded.

Silly Zhu shrunk his body and hummed, "No wonder I haven't seen you in the courtyard since I came back in the afternoon."

"By the way, Qingzi, have you finished the little girl's work?" Sha Zhu stomped his feet and said, "Why don't you let her come to our factory, and I will teach her to cook in the back kitchen. Don't pass on girls, these days, I don't pay attention to those things anymore, the factory has insisted on me taking care of apprentices in the past few years, if your younger sister learns from me, I will teach her all the skills."

Xu Qing supported the bicycle, stretched out his hand to take out a cigarette, and handed a cigarette to Sha Zhu, saying: "Brother Sha Zhu, thank you, but my sister has finished her job, and she will go to work in a state-owned store in a few days. Leave it to your daughter."

Silly Zhu bared his teeth and smiled, stretched out his hand to take the cigarette from Xu Qing, put it under his nose, sniffed it, and immediately said: "Hey, Qingzi, Mudan, what a smoke, brother, I've smoked it all again today."

Xu Qing smiled and took out the lighter, and lit the cigarettes for Shazhu and himself. The two chatted a few more words in a low voice, and then went back to the backyard.

At the moment, in the backyard, the lights of the second uncle's house, the old lady's house, Xu Damao's house, and the old lady's hut are still on.

Xu Aiguo is now living in the hut of the old lady's house. After more than a year, he has gotten used to it.

But tonight, the eldest brother was going to be busy with the little girl's work, so Xu Aiguo didn't go to bed early and kept waiting for the eldest brother to come back.

When Xu Qing parked his bicycle at the door of his house.

Xu Aiguo ran over from the hut where he lived, wearing a gray-brown cotton-padded jacket, and asked hurriedly:

"Brother, how is Xiaoya's work?"

"It's done, I can go to work the day after tomorrow."

When Xu Aiguo heard this, his face showed joy, and he was very happy in his heart.

If my eldest brother goes out, it must be a success.

Just as Xu Qing and his second brother were standing at the door of the house talking, the little girl lifted the curtain of the main house, stepped out and said:

"Brother, why did you come back? My sister-in-law and I still have rice in the pot for you."

Seeing the little girl, Xu Qing froze her pretty face with his icy right hand.

The little girl quickly shrank back, just like when she was young a few years ago, humming:
"Brother, I hate you!"

Xu Qing ignored it, but he didn't continue to tease her.

The brothers and sisters fighting each other added a lot of flavor to this ordinary life.

Especially when Xu Qing was tired, looking at the little girl and the third and second brothers who were fighting, he always felt that with them by his side, being tired was nothing.

After the three brothers and sisters entered the house, Xu Qing saw his daughter-in-law Jing Hong sitting on the kang with her back against the quilt, looking at him, and her heart felt indescribably warm.

There is a daughter-in-law at home, and younger brothers and sisters waiting for him.

There is hope for the future.

"Brother, wash your hands quickly, I'll go to the kitchen and serve you food."

The little girl shook her black braids and turned around to enter the kitchen.

Xu Qing hurriedly said: "Brother has eaten, you sit down and listen to what Brother has to say."

The little girl said oh, stopped, sat on the edge of the kang, next to her sister-in-law Jing, blinked and looked at her eldest brother Xu Qing.

"Your job is done. The day after tomorrow, you go to the state-owned store to report and go to Director Liu, Liu Zhiguo."

Hearing Xu Qing's words, the little girl turned her head and glanced at her sister-in-law beside her.

With a smile on Ma Jinghong's face, she looked back at the little girl and said, "Sister-in-law will accompany you the day after tomorrow."

"That's not good, sister-in-law, it's not convenient for you to walk around. I'll just go by myself."

After the little girl finished speaking, she turned to look at Xu Qing and said, "Brother, can you do it next month? I still want to spend more time with my sister-in-law at home."

Xu Qing took the enamel tea mug poured by his second brother just now, took a sip and said:

"That won't work. Big brother has agreed with me that if you don't go the day after tomorrow, it won't be appropriate."

The little girl let out an oh, neither happy nor disappointed.

In fact, my heart is flattered.

The eldest brother found a job for himself, and he is still a very decent salesperson in a state-owned store. How could he not be excited.

Her high school classmates and close girlfriends have been thinking about the job of salesperson for a long time.

It's a pity that they don't have such a good brother. The family has been tossing for a long time, but they couldn't let them in.

On the other hand, I have to go to work the day after tomorrow.

Thinking of her elder brother being so kind to her, the little girl couldn't help but feel a happy elder brother in her heart, that's great!
After a while, everyone in the compound knew that the little girl was going to work in a state-owned store.

They all ran to the backyard and visited Xu Qing's house.

Because Xu Qing went to work in the factory early in the morning, the little girl and her sister-in-law Jinghong entertained the neighbors from the compound.

The first mother and the third mother, the more they looked at the little girl, the more handsome they felt.

"Xiaoya, you look exactly like your mother at that time, you are so likable."

The little girl smiled and said: "Third Mom, if you say that I am shy again."

The third aunt smiled and said nothing. She rolled her eyes three times before she said something.

"Xiaoya, I heard Sha Zhu said earlier in the morning that you are going to work in a state-owned store, isn't he talking nonsense?"

There are silly pillars in the courtyard, and things like this will soon spread throughout the entire courtyard and reach everyone's ears.

The little girl nodded her head and said, "Brother Yu Zhu is right, I'm going to the state-run store soon."

The third mother opened her eyes wide, then suddenly narrowed them again, with indescribable envy in her heart.

Her own daughter, Jie Di, is about to start working, but she still doesn’t know anything about it.

Both she and Yan Bugui were dying of anxiety. Originally, they wanted their boss and daughter-in-law to tell the factory to see if they could get in without asking someone to pay.

However, no one will do things if they spend money, let alone if they don't want to spend money, then who is willing to do it.

There is no way for my daughter to enter the factory as a female worker. The third mother looked at the little girl, and her thoughts suddenly became complicated.

In the afternoon, the third uncle Yan Bugui, who came back from get off work at school, asked the third aunt who was on the outpost as soon as he entered the house:
"Sister Xu Qing, Xiaoya, what's your question? Are you going to work in a state-owned store?"

The third aunt sighed and said: "Yes, Xu Qing is now capable and capable. They will definitely let Xiaoya work in a state-owned store. No ordinary person can get such a good job."

Yan Bugui frowned, feeling a little sad.

Who said it wasn't, he also wanted Yan Jiedi to go in, it's not impossible, it doesn't matter.

Even the Red Star Rolling Mill can't put a daughter in it now, let alone the state-run store.

Yan Bugui sat on the edge of the kang, smoking a cigarette, thinking twice in his mind, secretly feeling that Xu Qing was really powerful.

Among the young people in the compound, it seems that except for Xu Damao, no one can compare to Xu Qing.

The few sons of my family are worthless, so it is difficult to catch up with Xu Qing.

Zhongyuan Shazhu, needless to say, his cooking skills are good, but he has been in the factory for many years, and he is still standing still, just an ordinary worker.

As for the two sons of the old Liu family in the backyard, let alone the two sons, they are half the same as their own three sons, or even worse.

Thinking of Xu Damao, Yan Bugui took a deep puff of cigarette, his eyes hidden behind the glasses lenses turned around in their sockets.

Xu Damao was good, he overthrew old Liu, climbed up to the position of deputy director himself, and kept Liu Hai's anger for more than a year.

But Xu Damao is the deputy director, and he has never heard of a better job for Qin Jingru.

Xu Qing, on the other hand, was promoted from a third-level clerk to a second-level clerk not long ago, but his rank was still not as high as the deputy director Xu Damao.

The problem is that Xu Qing can arrange for his younger sister Xu Xiaoya to work in a state-owned store.

But Xu Damao didn't have that ability.

This made the third master, a shrewd and calculating person, have to re-examine, Xu Qing and Xu Damao, who is more important.

On the bright side, Xu Damao is the biggest official in the courtyard now.

But in terms of ability, Yan Bugui felt that Xu Qing was better.

Whether it's dealing with people or dealing with others, under Yan Bugui's observation over the years, Xu Damao's tact and sophistication are quite good.

But compared with Xu Qing, Xu Damao is still much worse after all.

Xu Qing doesn't say pleasant words, and doesn't follow the wind to make the rudder. He knows what to say and what not to say.

Sometimes, Yan Bugui felt that he was inferior to himself.

They are both human beings. If you want to find someone in the compound who can compare with Xu Qing, it seems that there is really no one.

If there was, Yan Bugui stretched out his hand to touch his chin, secretly feeling that there should be only Xu Qing's second brother, Xu Aiguo.

The two of them are brothers, and their personalities are similar, which is normal.

It's just that Yan Bugui suddenly changed his mind again, thinking of his unlucky child, he wanted to get angry inexplicably.

The personalities of the second child and the eldest are almost the same.

The abilities of the two of them add up to one, and they are not as good as Xu Qing in the backyard.

What the hell in the future, how could Yan Pugui dare to think that in the future, the second son will follow the boss, and every day he will play against him, who is the old man, and fight against him.

Sometimes he even teases the third son, Jie Kuang, to pick things up at home.

Yan Bugui saw it through, none of the three sons made him worry.

The difference between the three of them and Xu Qing brothers is simply worlds apart.

Seeing that the head of the family was silent, the third mother said, "Why don't you go to Xu Qing for our daughter's job? If our daughter can also enter the state-run store, then we can't count on our sons in the future, and my daughter might be able to rely on it." .”

Yan Bugui raised his head to look at the third mother, a sneer flashed in his eyes for an instant.

Girl, please pull her down, she will get married sooner or later, how can you rely on her?
Yan Bugui had already thought through and chewed through the future in his heart.

No matter how bad the son is, at least he will be by his side. Once the daughter is married, she will go to live in someone else's house. I want to let the daughter take care of it in the future. Is that possible?
Yan Bugui put the ash bomb in his hand on the ground, and said impatiently: "Let's talk about it when Xu Xiaoya is working in the state-owned store. I'm going to find Xu Qing now. How could he agree to help?"

When the third mother heard the words, she felt that what the head of the family said was reasonable.

Xu Xiaoya hasn't gone to work yet, so it's really not the right time to go to Xu Qing.

The night passed.

Early in the morning, after eight o'clock, the third mother saw the little girl in the front yard fully dressed, and accompanied by Ma Jinghong, she walked out of the compound happily alone.

The third mother hurriedly asked Jinghong: "Jinghong, is your Xiaoya going to work early this morning?"

"Well, auntie, my sister-in-law, she has to report to the state-owned store early today."

The third mother was stunned, with indescribable astonishment in her heart.

She only found out yesterday that the little girl was going to work in a state-owned store, so she will report it early this morning.

The third aunt held the feather duster in her hand. For a moment, she looked at the back of the little girl who had just walked out of the courtyard, and her thoughts suddenly became complicated.

Yu Li stood at the door of her house, opened the curtain made of old mattresses, and secretly looked at the dazed mother-in-law and Ma Jinghong.

She also heard about the fact that the little girl was going to work in a state-owned store, and had a long discussion with Yan Jiecheng last night.

It's just that the young couple, after discussing to the end, came to the conclusion that who made Xu Qing capable.

As for her sister-in-law Yan Jiedi, Yu Li snorted and said, don't care about her.

If her sister-in-law doesn't deal with it, Yu Li won't worry about Yan Jiedi's mess.

Where Yan Jiedi wanted to go to work, Yu Li neither wanted to know nor listened to.

As for whether her parents-in-law were worried or not, Yu Li didn't bother to think about it.

Seeing Ma Jinghong's big belly, she turned and went back to the backyard, and Yu Li also quietly put down the curtain.

In the front yard, in an instant, only the third aunt was left.

When the cold wind blows in winter, there is only loneliness and wandering.
