I am a cripple in the Siheyuan. Who am I afraid of?

Chapter 48 The pillars still have feelings

After much deliberation, he felt that Xu Damao, Silly Zhu, and Song Laizi in front were the most likely to be able to borrow something.

None of the three of them are married, and they don’t even have a partner.They all have jobs and their income is not low.The most important thing is that they can all make extra gains.

Especially Silly Zhu and Song Laizi, who have been working for many years, and the money they have saved should be quite a lot.

But when it comes to getting things, Jia Dongxu first thinks of Xu Damao.As a movie projectionist, he went to the countryside to show movies to the communes and was popular wherever he went.

Although the commune is very nervous now, Xu Damao never came back empty-handed.

Jia Dongxu finished the last bite of the food and swallowed the last bite of steamed buns without leaving in a hurry.He wanted to wait and ask Silly Zhu again when he was free.

Most of the people in the cafeteria were devouring the oily food, wiping their mouths and leaving without feeling that there was anything worthy of nostalgia.

As soon as the peak point passed, Shazhu took some time off, sitting at the door with a teapot and smoking.

Jia Dongxu looked at the opportunity and came closer.

"Silly Zhu, you have to help me. You see, the two children at home are howling with hunger. Let's see if there is any food in the back of the kitchen. Let me borrow some first."

Silly Zhu rolled his eyes.

"If there is food, it's from the factory. Why are you so big-faced? You can borrow it at will. Don't make any decisions. You just ate too. Are there any yaoxingzi in there? I can't even supply the two noodles and steamed buns. ”

"As a cook, you know a lot of people. Please think of a way to make some good noodles and some meat." Jia Dongxu didn't give up.

"Brother, you think too much. You don't care about yourself these days. Where can I find a way to get noodles and meat for you, haha."

"My uncle told me that I could find a way out of you."

"Then I'm really grateful that he thinks highly of me. Don't you even look at it. Without the reception meal, what would I eat at home every day? My cook's ration is not as high as yours."

"But you can eat your ration by yourself. I only have one person's ration, and I have five mouths. Your sister-in-law can't keep up with her nutrition, and Xiaodang is almost out of food."

Silly Zhu, who had a very cold attitude at first, was stunned when he heard Jia Dongxu mention "your sister-in-law is malnourished".

He felt weak for no reason.However, in front of Jia Dongxu, he didn't say much. No matter how he said it or found reasons, Silly Zhu just didn't answer.

Jia Dongxu left Silly Zhu angrily, moved to the office building, and found Xu Damao in the Publicity Department.

Xu Damao was chatting happily with a group of female colleagues, his eyebrows were dancing and his saliva was flying.He was called out by Jia Dongxu, which disturbed his interest and made him feel very unhappy.

"Jia Dongxu, you have something to do with me." He never called Jia Dongxu brother, he always called him by his first name.

Jia Dongxu had a smile on his face and said, "After much thought, you must be the most capable person in our hospital. Look at today's life, who is as comfortable as you are?"

"Then what you said is really right, I..." Xu Damao was half-satisfied, and suddenly woke up, "What are you talking about? What comfort do I have? Otherwise, I still eat pickles and steamed buns three times a day."

"Hehe, you just brought back a big fat chicken. You three had food and drink with Silly Zhu and Lame. I've heard about it."

"The lame man has good wine. I just happened to catch up with the movie show in the countryside. The party secretary is willing to trade for a chicken raised by my family. I will drink the good wine for the lame man. Why am I in your way?" Xu Damao's His face looks ugly.

Jia Dongxu said with a sly smile on his face: "I have no other intention. Actually, I just wanted to ask if you have any way to help me buy some things."

Xu Damao looked sideways at Jia Dongxu and shook his head. "It's not easy to meet that chicken once. Usually it's like eating mushrooms and fungus. That's all I've got."

"How about you lend me 20 yuan?"

Hearing Jia Dongxu mention borrowing money, Xu Damao became more wary.He had heard that Jia Dongxu was now in debt, and now he wanted to borrow money from him, but there was no way.

"Recently, my dad is talking about me, saying that I spend money lavishly and don't know how to save money. He has stipulated that when I receive my monthly salary from now on, I must first pay half of it to him and save it for me, so that I won't be allowed to do it casually anymore. It’s a waste of money. Alas, if you ask me to borrow money, I really don’t have any.”

"You..." Jia Dongxu clearly heard that this was an excuse, but what could he say?

He returned to the workshop, screwed another part, and had to be reprimanded by the team leader. He could only smile with a smile on his face, quickly admit his mistake, and cheer up to work hard.

In the afternoon, Song Wu felt itchy for a moment, so he used two old wheel hub steel rims, one big and one small, on them, and put them on the old bicycle strips, as well as three bicycle front forks.I used that small electric welder to weld a small round table.

At first, only one or two uncles looked at it strangely and came around to take a look, but later on, more and more people gathered around.After Song Wu had welded it, it was time to polish it and decorate it. Finally, he found a thin piece of wood, cut it into a size that matched the big wheel hub, and put it on top.

Hey, it looks really good.All the uncles in the circle expressed their admiration.

"Master Song, you are really skillful with your hands. If you make a few more, they will be quite practical for your home."

Song Wu said proudly: "This is called turning waste into treasure. Just put it in this shop, which can hold a teapot. These accessories I use cannot be used again. If there are accessories that can still be used, they can be used It’s just not cost-effective to do this.”

An old man tried it with his hands and said, "It's really strong. It will definitely last for a few years."

Song Wu said: "When I have time, I will sit on a chair, and I will also use a wheel hub and an old tire. Then I will put it at the door of this shop. Anyone who comes can sit on it and it will be comfortable." His shop was bustling. Okay, the uncles and aunts have all dispersed, everyone who is supposed to get off work is back, and it’s time to go back and cook.

Song Wu saw Sha Zhu, who was coming back from get off work, weighing a small flour bag, and asked him: "Is there any food left at this time when I go to the grain store?"

Silly Zhu said: "I found someone to buy five kilograms of white flour. Isn't it because Sister Qin is lacking in nutrition? I will send it to her later for emergency treatment."

After hearing what he said, Song Wu thought to himself: "Your five kilograms of white flour is not much. If you send it to her house, you might end up in someone's mouth." But he would not say this to her face.

Silly Zhu walked to the middle courtyard carrying 5 kilograms of white noodles. He saw Qin Huairu washing clothes in the sink, so he walked over and said, "Sister Qin, I have 5 kilograms of white noodles here. Why don't you take it back first." He handed over the flour bag. To Qin Huairu.

Qin Huairu was a little shocked.Of course white noodles are a good thing and she wants them too, but she didn't ask Si Zhu to borrow them.

At this time, the first uncle Yi Zhonghai also came back from get off work and walked to the middle courtyard. He happened to see Sha Zhu passing the dough bag in his hand to Qin Huairu, and his eyes were on the dough bag.

Qin Huairu's face suddenly turned red and she quickly took two steps away.

Silly Zhu met Yi Zhonghai's eyes and chuckled twice, "Master, I helped Sister Qin buy five kilograms of white noodles and bring them to her."

Yi Zhonghai showed a happy smile and walked to Sha Zhu: "Zhu Zhu still has friendship, so he did a good job this time." He turned to Qin Huairu and said: "The white face is Sha Zhu's kindness, just take it. Neighbors should help each other, who doesn’t have something difficult or urgent?”

"Yeah" Qin Huairu hummed softly and took the dough bag handed over by Sha Zhu.

At this time, Jia Dongxu came to Limin's car repair shop outside the hospital.

Song Wu happened to be out of work at the moment and was sitting on a recliner to rest. When he saw Jia Dongxu, he thought to himself: "Why are you here again?"

Song Wu said hello to Jia Dongxu, then he was minding his own business, holding the teapot and drinking his own water.

Jia Dongxu saw that Song Wu's attitude was not enthusiastic, so he stopped beating around the bush.

"Song Wu, I want to borrow some money from you."

"Borrow money?" This time I didn't want to borrow food or meat, but money.

"Yes, I don't want much, just three and a half yuan will be enough."

Song Wu thought for a moment and said, "I can spare at most 10 yuan from the money I have on hand."

"10 yuan is a bit too little, can you get 30 more?"

Song Wu shook his head: "Ten yuan is not a small amount. I usually don't have that much living money."

Jia Dongxu gritted his teeth. "Okay, 10 yuan, just 10 yuan, I'll borrow it."

Song Wu stood up from the recliner and said, "I'll help you get the money later."

He turned around and walked towards the small courtyard behind.

After a few minutes, he returned to the shop, holding not only 10 yuan but also a small book in his hand.

"You have to write an IOU for me, specify the date of the loan, the borrower, and sign it." Song Wu handed the small book to Jia Dongxu.

"There's no need to go to such trouble, it's only 10 yuan, our neighbor..."

"No, my brothers are still settling accounts. This 10 yuan is not a small amount to me. If you don't write an IOU, I will feel uneasy." Song Wu insisted.

Jia Dongxu reluctantly wrote an IOU, signed and pledged it, handed it to Song Wu, and then took the 10 yuan from Song Wu.

When he was about to walk out of the shop, Song Wu said, "You must remember to pay back the money quickly."

Jia Dongxu had 10 yuan in his pocket and felt unhappy. He returned home gloomily and saw Qin Huairu steaming white flour buns there.

"Where did you get the white noodles? Have you returned to Qinjia Village?"

Qin Huairu kneaded the buns and said, "Sinzhu gave them to me just now."

"Sinzhu gave it to me? How is that possible? I asked him to borrow it this afternoon and he said he didn't have it." Jia Dongxu said in surprise.

"So you asked Shazhu to borrow food. I was just wondering, how could he remember to send me some flour?"

Jia Dongxu said nothing, but looked Qin Huairu up and down with a scrutinizing gaze.

Qin Huairu felt uncomfortable being looked at by him, so she glared at him and said, "Why are you looking at me like that?"

Jia Dongxu snorted without saying anything and went into the inner room.He was very upset, so he went to borrow some money and borrowed 10 yuan with a note. Over here, Silly Zhushang hurriedly gave Qin Huairu 5 pounds of white noodles. What did he mean?
