Siheyuan: Lao Liu appears, everyone is confused

Chapter 76 Jia Zhang: Director Wang, I want to report it!

At this moment.

Looking at Silly Zhu who was almost going crazy in front of him, Yi Zhonghai's eyes were filled with relief, happiness, and an inexplicable sense of pride and accomplishment.

His "cultivation" of Silly Zhu over the years was not in vain.

The letters he showed to Silly Zhu just now were not forgeries, but were really written by He Daqing, but they were all carefully selected by him.

In the past twelve or three years, they have corresponded quite a lot, so it is not difficult to choose some people who are likely to mislead Silly Zhu with ulterior motives.

It's like He Daqing forgetting to send money.

Over the years, there have always been delays or forgetfulness. Whenever Yi Zhonghai did not receive the money on time, he would write to He Daqing and state in his heart that he had paid for He Daqing first, and told him not to forget it next time. .

On the one hand, he continued to maintain his image as a "good old man" and deepened He Daqing's trust in himself.

on the other hand.

It was to reassure He Daqing that he had taken good care of the He family brothers and sisters in Sijiucheng, so that he didn't have to worry about this place at all, and he didn't have to think about coming back.

It’s also okay to ask He Daqing to help find connections and let Shazhu apprentice as a teacher.

He Daqing originally had this idea, and Yi Zhonghai naturally helped to push it forward. If Sha Zhu can seek independence earlier, it will also allow him to "let go" earlier.

Because in the early years, He Daqing did not have a good relationship with his former brothers, and he had many difficulties in this matter, but he still complained and worked hard at the same time.As a result, Yi Zhonghai took out a letter that was easily misunderstood. After reading it, Silly Zhu naturally thought that He Daqing was not interested in letting him enter Fengze Garden as an apprentice to learn skills, and even None of them were happy, and in the end it was Yi Zhonghai who helped behind the scenes.

As for what He Daqing said in his letter that he would never return to Sijiu City in this life, it was even more true.

Because he was afraid of helping others "raise" children in vain, Yi Zhonghai frequently tested He Daqing in his letters. If he had not received a positive answer, he would not have considered Silly Zhu as one of his training goals for raising the elderly.

After all, once He Daqing, his biological father, comes back, Yi Zhonghai has no way to guarantee who He Yuzhu will eventually gravitate towards.

There is no such thing as a world without parents.

He often said this himself, so he naturally knew the depth of blood ties.

And He Daqing.

Maybe it’s because I’m living a good life in Baoding and I’m happy to miss Shu.

Or maybe because he felt guilty for abandoning the Silly Zhu brothers and sisters, he didn't dare to come back and face them.

Or maybe he knew that Shazhu and Yuyu were gradually growing up and becoming independent, and that his return would be of little help to them, so he didn't want to come back and drag them down.

Regardless of the reason, after going to Baoding and Yi Zhonghai's repeated tests, he found that He Daqing had indeed given up the idea of ​​returning to Sijiu City.

These are nothing more than thunderous blows to Shazhu.

Even though he had been harsh in his words before and really had resentment or hatred towards He Daqing in his heart, after all, he had lived with He Daqing for 15 years since he was a child and had a strong emotional foundation. He had never thought that He Daqing would come back to him one day and come back to him again. Continue the relationship between father and son.

If there is no love, there will be no hatred.

But all this has undergone earth-shaking changes today.

When he learned that He Daqing was still paying attention to their brothers and sisters all these years, Shazhu felt touched.

But thinking that after so many years, he has never come back to see them once, and even said that he has no intention of returning to Sijiu City in this life, this completely makes Shazhu feel discouraged.

"Zhuzi, actually I have always wanted to tell you this, but every time I see your reaction so big, I give up. Don't blame me.

Except for the money sent by the Qing Dynasty over the years, I have saved it for you, except for the money spent on You and Yuyu. The main reason is that I am afraid that you will spend money lavishly and without restraint without an elder to control it.

Look at Wang Hao, how did he squander this time without his sister to take care of him?
This is the best negative example
I was also afraid that you would become like this.

Like Wang Hao, no matter how much wealth he has, he will lose it sooner or later! "

At this point, Yi Zhonghai's eyes paused and he said with a gloomy face: "But the money is gone now."

Hearing this, Shazhu raised his head subconsciously.

He didn't think much about it, but Yi Zhonghai said yes and no at one time, and the preface and the follower were inconsistent, which made him confused.

"Remember the 1000 yuan you paid for Wang Hao's hospitalization last time?" Yi Zhonghai sighed and said helplessly, "It's all in there! In addition to the money sent by the Qing Dynasty over the years, I also A lot of stuff was put into it.”

"Master, I will return your money to you."

After hearing that Yi Zhonghai said that he himself had put money into it, Shazhu immediately expressed his stance.

Hearing this, Yi Zhonghai did not answer, but asked: "You don't have much money now, do you?"

Silly Zhu was immediately embarrassed.

He really doesn't have much money on him now.

What's more important is that not only was he sent to the workshop for renovation today, but he was also fined three months' salary by Factory Director Yang.

In other words, his life will be difficult in the next three months.

"This is the one hundred and fifty you paid me back last time. I don't want it from you either. You take it back." Yi Zhonghai took out the 150 yuan that he had already prepared, with a look of deep understanding on his face.

"Master..."

Looking at the 150 yuan handed over by Yi Zhonghai, Si Zhu almost burst into tears.

"Take it back, otherwise you may not be able to survive the rest of your life." Yi Zhonghai said distressedly.

He was really distressed.

But it was not Silhu who felt distressed, but his own savings.

Originally, almost all of the money He Daqing had sent over the years had been paid to Wang Hao on behalf of Silly Zhu, and later he was knocked off another sum by Wang Hao.

This one hundred and fifty was returned to him by Sha Zhu, and it was considered as a return of some blood. Now in order to solve the future troubles and completely gain the trust of Sha Zhu, he could only return it with tears.

As Si Zhu went back drunk, Yi Zhonghai drank all the liquor in the glass in front of him.

Things were developing in the direction he had planned, and he could finally let go of the big stone weighing on his heart.

"Lao Yi, drink less."

At this time, the aunt who came out of the back room advised.

"It's okay, I'm happy today." Yi Zhonghai smiled.

After getting rid of this trap, let's see what else Wang Hao threatens him with next.

The last time the incident happened suddenly and there was no preparation. Yi Zhonghai was afraid of losing Si Zhu, his supporter, so he didn't dare to break the pot, otherwise Wang Hao would not be able to get any benefit from him.

Just thinking about the 1000 yuan he had lost in vain made his heart bleed.

If I had known this earlier, it would be better to just give all the money to Shazhu honestly and not even think about taking advantage of it.

In the end, I didn't make much money and I lost a lot of money.

But no way.

If he didn't interfere with it, let Si Zhu's brother and sister live a good life, and truthfully told Si Zhu all the situation, then Si Zhu would be grateful not to him, but to He Daqing, his biological father.

"Ugh!"

After pouring himself another glass of wine, Yi Zhonghai sighed suddenly.

"Lao Yi, isn't everything settled? Why are you sighing?" The eldest mother was puzzled.

"This silly Zhu is too impulsive."

Yi Zhonghai shook his head, very helpless.

When the aunt heard this, she didn't know what to say.

She also knew everything that happened in the factory today.

From the last time he sent Wang Hao to the hospital, to the conflict with Wang Hao in the factory today, Si Zhu almost destroyed himself.

Silly Zhu was Yi Zhonghai's new choice for retirement after Jia Dongxu disappeared. She also recognized this, but it was not an option to continue like this.

"What do you think of Qin Huairu?"

"Old Yi, you..."

Caught off guard, the aunt was stunned when she heard Yi Zhonghai suddenly ask this question.

And this moment.

Yi Zhonghai started to think seriously.

Originally, Jia Dongxu was the best candidate for his retirement. Not only was he motivated and filial, but the key point was that when Jia Dongxu was around, Jia Zhang didn't dare to act like a monster, so he didn't have too many worries at that time.

But with Jia Dongxu gone, everything changed.

Although the Jia family was supported by Qin Huairu, the burden was too heavy and no one was pressing the Jia Zhang family. Qin Huairu could not speak at home.

These days, it is not easy for Qin Huairu, a woman, to support the Jia family. If they are added to the family...

Even if his salary is high, and with the Jia family and his family together, even if he gives all his salary to Qin Huairu, Yi Zhonghai can hardly guarantee that Qin Huairu will focus on them first.

So he could only place his hope for retirement on Si Zhu.

But what happened during this period made Yi Zhonghai feel that Shazhu was not so reliable, so he began to turn his attention back to the Jia family.

After all, he has put so much effort into the Jia family, and he has not given up investing in the past year after Jia Dongxu disappeared.

More importantly, he recently discovered that Shazhu seemed to have been trapped by Qin Huairu.

This made him sway and couldn't help but think more.

When they grow old, they will inevitably need someone to take care of them before and after bed. Qin Huairu, who works hard as a cow and horse in the Jia family and takes good care of the Jia family's young and old, is exactly the most suitable candidate. .

Silly Zhu can't even take care of himself now, and expects him to help them clean up in the future. I'm afraid it's not an ordinary wishful thinking.

in case……

……

The next day.

There was no sound in the sky, and it gradually became brighter.

Wang Hao got up early, left the courtyard, and started today's morning exercise.

"Sister Haitang, you didn't go back last night?"

When he came back, Wang Hao was a little surprised to see Yu Haitang who had just gotten up in the front yard.

"No! I talked to my sister too late last night, so I didn't go back and slept with my sister."

Yu Haitang explained, and then asked Wang Hao curiously: "Are you back from exercising?"

Yesterday, he heard Yan Bugui say that since Wang Hao came back from the hospital last time, he would get up early to exercise almost every day. He didn't expect it to be so early.

"Yes!" "Sister Haitang, I won't talk to you anymore."

"I'm sweating all over, go take a shower quickly, I have to cook later, don't be late for work."

"it is good!"

Watching Wang Hao go home, Yu Haitang couldn't help but feel envious when he thought of the bathroom he visited last night.

It is so convenient to be able to take a hot bath at any time at home.

"Haitang, will you have dinner at my house this morning?"

As soon as she turned around, Yu Haitang saw Yan Bugui walking over and said to her with a smile: "For Haozi's sake, I helped you get rid of last night's meal money, but there is nothing we can do today. …”

"No, I'm not hungry in the morning, so I won't have breakfast."

Originally he was in a good mood, but Yan Bugui asked for money, which made Yu Haitang a little unhappy.

This is why she is not willing to come to Yan's house.

Money is always needed.

When her sister took her brother-in-law Yan Jiecheng back to her parents' home, they didn't see Yan Jiecheng asking for money during the meal!
I can't stand this anger.

Yan Bugui was not upset when he saw this, he was cheerful.

If one person is missing, he will eat for free, which is equivalent to saving another person's ration today.

He lost a dime yesterday and almost kept him awake all night, feeling very distressed.

Yu Li, who was not far away, heard it and was in a bad mood.

It's not just because the younger sister is angry, but also because Yan Bugui's behavior makes her sister very embarrassed and unable to hold her head high in front of her family.

"These are two taels of food stamps. Go out and buy some food yourself!"

Yu Li wanted to help Yu Haitang give the dime, but Yu Haitang stopped her, so Yu Li reluctantly took out a food stamp from her body.

We can't let Yu Haitang go to work really hungry. Then her family won't know what to say about her.

Yu Li also knew that Yu Haitang had money but no food stamps, so she only took out food stamps.

"Thank you ma'am!"

Yu Haitang did not refuse.

However, she didn't plan to buy breakfast. She planned to save the food stamps for lunch in the cafeteria to buy meals. She was too lazy to run home again in the morning.

After a while.

Wang Hao finished taking a shower, opened the window and started cooking. Yu Haitang, who was in the yard, couldn't help but go over and ask: "Wang Hao, I'm going to work later, can you use your bicycle belt to take me with you?"

It's not far from the steel rolling mill, but Yu Haitang doesn't want to walk there if he can.

Not to mention that she and Wang Hao are now colleagues in the same department, so they couldn't be more convenient.

"no problem!"

Yu Haitang took the initiative to speak, but Wang Hao couldn't refuse directly. He hesitated and nodded.

"Thank you, Wang Hao." Yu Haitang couldn't help but said happily.

Wang Hao smiled and shook his head. He happened to see that the third uncle's house across the door was already preparing for dinner. He couldn't help but remind Yu Haitang: "Sister Haitang, the third uncle's house is about to have dinner. Aren't you going back?"

"It's not my fault!"

Yu Haitang said a little depressed.

"Third uncle asked you to collect meal money again?"

Seeing Yu Haitang's reaction, and thinking of Yan Bugui's stingy temper, Wang Hao quickly guessed the cause and effect, and couldn't help but laugh: "These three uncles are the same, I told him to go!"

"Farewell, Wang Hao!"

Seeing this, Yu Haitang quickly stopped him.

Yan Bugui didn't like her to eat free rice, and he didn't want to force her to eat for free, so as not to be looked down upon by others.

As for last night's meal.

She had already given the money, but Yan Bugui later returned the money to her out of consideration for Wang Hao. The situation was completely different.

"Let's do this, Sister Haitang. I'll make more later, and you can just eat a little here."

Wang Hao also didn't like that a girl in Yu Haitang was hungry in front of him, and she was also a colleague in the broadcast room. If people knew that he was there, it would be a bit unreasonable for Yu Haitang to go to work hungry.

"That's not good!"

Yu Haitang was a little embarrassed.

It felt like she came here deliberately to get a meal.

"Nothing, I haven't started yet. I'll do more later." Wang Hao smiled and didn't say anything to ask her to return the invitation.

"Okay, I'll treat you next time."

She really didn’t want to go to work hungry, Yu Haitang said proactively.

Wang Hao made fried noodles in the morning, which was simple but not simple, but for many people in the courtyard, this was already a luxury.

Soon.

The aroma of fried noodles filled the entire front yard.

Although they have long been used to it, everyone is still not immune. They all cursed in their hearts that Wang Hao is a wicked and prodigal boy who makes delicious food to satisfy them every day.

It's fine if you lock it up and eat it secretly. The key is to keep the door or window open every time so that they can't even smell it.

And this time.

Seeing the negative emotion points coming in one after another, Wang Hao also smiled with satisfaction.

A bad thing is a bad thing, but he couldn't help it!

"Sister Haitang, eat!"

"Wow, what you did is so delicious!"

As early as just now, Yu Haitang couldn't help but move his index finger. He didn't expect that Wang Hao actually had this skill.

This is simply a plus.

Yu Haitang was a little touched when she saw that the bowl given to her had an egg specially placed there.

Looking at Wang Hao's bowl again, there were two more bowls than hers, and even more oil residue than her bowl. Yu Haitang suddenly didn't know what to say.

White was moved.

However, it was rare to have such a good meal in the morning. Although Yu Haitang was grateful, she was still a little embarrassed.

Is this what Wang Hao calls a simple snack?
at the same time.

Jia Zhang, who came back from going to the bathroom, couldn't help but be shocked when she saw Yu Haitang in Wang Hao's house when she passed by the front yard.

Yu Haitang didn't go back last night?
Last night, Jia Zhang discovered that Wang Hao had brought a girl back. When she inquired about it, she found out that it was Yu Haitang, the sister of the eldest daughter-in-law of the third uncle's family. Like Wang Hao, she was a broadcaster at the steel rolling mill.

Jia Zhang became angry when she thought of this incident.

This kid Wang Hao actually got a job as a broadcaster without making any noise. God is really displeased.

On my first day at work, I kidnapped a girl from the factory and came back.

This girl was neither shy nor ashamed. The two of them were locked in a room at night and they didn't know what they were doing.

They knew it was Yu Haitang, Yu Li's sister, but instead of going to Yu Li's house, Yu Haitang ran to Wang Hao's house, obviously knowing there was something wrong.

This early in the morning, Yu Haitang was having breakfast in Wang Hao's house, and the two of them ate so deliciously.

Looking over to the third uncle, the whole family is also having breakfast.

This is incredible!

If she remembers correctly, Wang Hao is only eighteen this year, right?
Not even yet...

Thinking of this, Jia Zhang suddenly became excited.

……

Inside the house.

Wang Hao was concentrating on breakfast and didn't notice Jia Zhang passing by in a hurry.

After finishing a large bowl of fragrant oil noodles, Wang Hao took out two more apples and handed one to Yu Haitang.

It has almost become a habit for Wang Hao to have fruit after a meal, but he can't just eat it by himself, he can only share it with others.

"For me?"

Seeing Wang Hao treating herself to such a good breakfast and giving herself an apple, Yu Haitang was a little confused.

She even suspected that Wang Hao had a crush on her.

Otherwise, it’s fried noodles and eggs again, and now even apples are taken out.

Whose family has such good conditions and can withstand such things every day?

Wang Hao didn't think too much. After giving the apple to Yu Haitang, he went to the faucet, washed it briefly and took a bite.

Yu Haitang was reluctant to touch the apple. After happily putting it away, he took the initiative to pick up his and Wang Hao's bowls and chopsticks, went to the sink and started cleaning them.

When Wang Hao saw this, he was also happy to be at ease.

After a while.

Wang Hao pushed his bicycle out of the house, locked the door, and left with Yu Haitang.

Just as Wang Hao and Yu Haitang left the front yard, Jia Zhang sneaked over from the middle yard and followed them quietly.

Jia Zhang secretly followed outside, and when she saw Wang Hao riding a bicycle and leaving with Yu Haitang, a flash of uncontrollable excitement flashed through his triangular eyes.

Finally, she caught Wang Hao's pigtails.

The proud Jia Zhang didn't dare to stay, and couldn't wait to go to the location of the street office.

As soon as she arrived near the sub-district office, Ms. Jia Zhang saw Director Wang of the sub-district office passing by on his bicycle. She couldn't help but chase after her excitedly and shouted:
"Director Wang, wait, I want to report it!"
