Siheyuan: Start with senior technicians

Chapter 91 Looking for trouble again
Jia Zhang didn't care anymore, because she didn't know how much she had hit before.

After getting the lunch box, I bought two more white noodles. The total cost was 60 cents and 40 taels of food stamps.

This money is really valuable, but sixty cents is a lot. If you eat like this every meal, most people's wages will not be enough.

But this time the canteen is almost at cost price, so the duck meat is cheaper to make up for it, otherwise we will lose money.

The workers also know how to settle accounts. Not counting staple food, they only pay 50 cents for four dishes.

If you go to the market and buy four taels of meat, and add side dishes, coal, seasonings, etc., you may not be able to make four dishes for fifty cents, and the taste is not comparable.

The key is that there is no need to spend meat tickets in the canteen, so after the meal, everyone was talking about Yang Weibiao.

The director of the cafeteria can handle this, but even if the director of the factory is replaced, Director Yang will have to stay.

At this moment, Mrs. Jia Zhang was devouring the food and stood by the window. A piece of duck neck almost got stuck in her throat. After she coughed it out, she didn't want to throw it away. She just grabbed it and gnawed it.

Silly Zhu originally wanted to make a few jokes, but he couldn't stand it anymore and felt nauseated.

Yang Weibiao also took a look and shook his head.

Jia Zhang can still work at least now. According to the workers' feedback, the toilet has been cleaned very clean recently, and I really can't find anything wrong with it.

But he was sure that as soon as Mrs. Jia Zhang recovered and had extra money and food in her hands, she would immediately become lazy and start looking for trouble. This dog would never change its habit of eating shit.

"Brother Yang, it was the uncle who took money from Jia Zhang."

Silly Zhu's face was not good-looking, because the uncle never gave him any money, so he only asked him to help.

Although that's true, you can't just think about yourself.

But you can't always think about Jia Zhang, what do you think?

"Spread the word! If you do good deeds, everyone in the courtyard will know. If any family is in trouble in the future, no, if any family is greedy for meat, they can ask the first master to get money."

Yang Weibiao really didn't know what to say. Yi Zhonghai was still carrying Lei, and instead of carrying Qin Huairu, he was only carrying Jia and Zhang.

Strictly speaking, Mrs. Jia Zhang is also a widow. Could it be that there really is a tradition of kissing widows in the courtyard house?
Xu Damao also fell into the trap!

Well, when he thought of Liang Ladi, his face suddenly became hot, and even Fool Zhu jumped into the trap. Why did he seem to have been tricked?

"okay!"

Silly Zhu's big mouth is not something he can hide. If he says he is spreading news, he will really do his best to spread it.

Before getting off work, two other ordinary residents in the courtyard who worked in the steel rolling mill found out first.

Liu Haizhong knew it, and Xu Damao naturally knew it too.

When Silhu returned from get off work, Yan Bugui soon heard about it, and within five minutes, the news spread to the backyard.

"Silly Zhu!" the deaf old lady stopped the person.

"Old lady, have you eaten? Come to my house and have some."

Silly Zhu arrived at the backyard, and suddenly thought that everyone in the backyard should know the news. Just as he was about to leave, he saw the old lady coming out.

"Did your uncle really give Zhang Yatou money again?"

The deaf old lady had sharp eyes and a serious tone.

"This can still be fake. Then Jia Zhang made four dishes and two white noodles in the canteen at noon. By the way, our factory sells meat dishes today."

Silly Zhu came back early and reached the courtyard faster than Yi Zhonghai on his bicycle, but he still had to dodge.

Otherwise, it would be embarrassing to see him preaching on the spot.

"Why didn't he listen to my advice?"

The deaf old lady thought this was a big deal.

"Madam, will you come to my house to have something to eat?"

Silly Zhu drained the spoon at noon, but it was the cadre's small stove, and he did not compete with the workers for food.

"My wife has eaten, please go back quickly!"

The deaf old lady was too shrewd to know that Silly Zhu wanted to hide, and she didn't want her eldest grandson to be in trouble.

"okay!"

Silly Zhu ran away quickly. When he got home, he was about to put the lunch box on the table, but suddenly thought of something and hid it.

As expected, Qin Huairu arrived at the door not long after.

"Silly Zhu, come out for a moment."

"Sister Qin, what's going on!"

"Sinzhu, have you brought a lunch box? Banggan is too greedy and didn't eat enough at lunch. Can you give me some meat?"

Qin Huairu didn't want to come, but Banggeng was making a lot of noise.

"No, there were only so many at noon, and they were all sold out. Your mother-in-law bought the last remaining ones, and everyone watched. By the way, it was the money given by the uncle."

In the past, Shazhu might have taken some, but it was different now. In the past two days, his partner had been saying that he had no appetite, so he had to be careful.

Besides, Sister Qin brought food home at noon, so it’s not like Banggeng didn’t eat it.

"Ah! Is it really gone?"

"It's really gone."

"OK then!"

Qin Huairu had no choice but to leave. If it was later, Bai Xiaohong would have to come back. When he saw her here, he would have to stop her with words.

After Qin Huairu returned home, Yi Zhonghai walked in slowly. Along the way, he always felt that the atmosphere was a little wrong.

When the residents saw him, they didn't even say hello and walked away at a distance.

Yi Zhonghai was looking for someone to ask if something had happened, when he saw the old lady there in the backyard corridor.

"Lao Yi, come here."

"Madam, what is this?"

Yi Zhonghai also followed everyone else in calling her "ma'am", otherwise she would have to call her "aunt" according to her seniority.

The deaf old lady didn't say anything. She waited until Yi Zhonghai arrived in her room and then said, "Old Yi, why did you make a mistake again?"

"What's wrong with me?"

Yi Zhonghai thought to himself that he just came back.

"What are you talking about? Just after you spilled the beans last time, Zhang Yatou found an excuse to report it, causing Guangjun to lose his job.

It would be better for you to arrange Zhang Yatou into the steel rolling mill later. You are only allowed to do things yourself and no one else is allowed to talk about the position.

At least everything is over, and it will be easy to talk about it when Guangjun gets a job in a while.

But tell me, why did you give Zhang Yatou money to buy meat today?

If this continues, you won’t be able to expect anyone to provide for you in your old age. "

The deaf old lady was in the courtyard every day, and the backyard had the most upper-class residents. Silly Zhu and Yan Bugui were always running to the backyard.

Originally, the relationship between Yang Weibiao and Yi Zhonghai had eased, but after what happened last time, they no longer had any contact.

Even Si Zhu was affected and became disobedient.

"Madam, Mrs. Jia and Zhang almost knelt down for me. It's just one dollar. With so many people watching, I have to give it.

This is a loan. I will get it back after she pays her salary in a few days. "

Yi Zhonghai also had trouble saying that he couldn't do it without giving him the money today.

"Then you will be back on the 3rd, and my wife will be watching."

The deaf old lady sighed, this old Yi will fall into trouble sooner or later. How can a girl like Zhang Yatou be able to control her for the rest of her life?

……

But he said that Yang Weibiao went to the literary club in the afternoon and was delayed yesterday. He had to go there anyway today.

"Cousin, you go ahead, Xiaoguang and I are going back first."

After Zhou Rong talked with her cousin last night, she thought a lot about how she could give gifts if she was the second type of person.

"Okay, tomorrow is the weekend. I'll invite you to a restaurant."

Yang Weibiao rubbed Zhou Rong's head, she was still cute now.

"Teacher Feng, let's go!"

"Director Yang, please go first!"

Feng Huacheng seemed more respectful, because there was no one else around, and he had already told Zhou Rong, so there was no need to worry.

Yang Weibiao nodded and set off with Feng Huacheng, who was holding a big bag containing the gifts he had prepared.

The first stop for the two of them was to Professor Wang’s home at Peking University.

This person is not a simple person. He is Zhou Rong’s future mentor. He is well versed in both Chinese and Western studies and is a master of literature.

And there is no doubt that there is no gift received. Yang Weibiao wasn't angry either. He just came to visit and get to know each other.

Then we went to the second stop. We visited five houses in total, but only two accepted the gifts. This was not unexpected.

Today's scholars are still very capable, and Yang Weibiao has gained potential connections because of this, which is enough.

"Director Yang is really troublesome for you today. It would be nice to have two judges."

Feng Huacheng said this, but he felt that the other three were pretending to be noble and looked down on him.

This made him more determined to gain fame.

"Okay, I'll contact you later if I have something else to do."

Yang Weibiao left now and did not intend to contact him again. Feng Huacheng had no value to him anymore.

A poet does nothing to help his career!

It was already too late by the time he got home, and he didn't even bother to have dinner.

"Brother-in-law, you have been very busy recently."

Yu Haitang brought him a bowl of noodles with two eggs in it, which was already a good meal.

"That's it for a while. By the way, how are you doing in class? You'll be in your senior year of high school in the second half of the year. Have you ever thought about going to college?"

Yang Weibiao tried it out.

Who knew that He Yuyu just came and said, "Brother Yang, haven't you eaten yet? I'll come over and play cards later."

"Yu Yu, wait a minute, sit down and chat for a while."

Yang Weibiao felt that he had shocked two people.

"Brother-in-law just asked me if I want to go to college. How about you Yu Yu?"

Yu Haitang picked up the topic and learned to change the question.

"Of course I want to go to college, but it's too difficult to get into college."

In comparison, He Yuyu spends a lot of time studying every day.

"Me too!"

Yu Haitang followed suit.

Yang Weibiao thought, let's play cards. Anyway, tomorrow is the weekend, so there is no need to get up early.

The next day he took Sister Yu Li to ask Zhou Rong and others to go to the restaurant together, and then sent them to the train station the next afternoon.

"Cousin, will you come to Jichun to play?"

Zhou Rong was very reluctant to let go. Although they only got along for a few days, she developed a sense of dependence on her cousin.

"Yes, the world is so big, I want to see it."

Yang Weibiao sighed with emotion, this great country is now full of the flavor of the times.

Well, he has been a little influenced these days and has become more artistic.

"Wow, cousin, what you said is so good, I want to write it down."

Zhou Rong's eyes shone, she didn't expect her cousin to have such literary talent.

"Uh! Get in the car. I've prepared food for you in the bag. I won't give you much money. Please pay attention to safety on the road."

Yang Weibiao petted Zhou Rong's little head.

"Cousin, I will miss you."

Zhou Rong hugged her cousin, waved, and got in the car.

Yang Weibiao stood there, waiting for Zhou Rong to arrive in the compartment and the train to start, and then left.

Today's separation is for a better encounter tomorrow!

I'll go, he shook his head, he couldn't continue his literary career.

However, Zhou Rong said that it took more than 20 hours of train ride, but it was much better than when she came because Yang Weibiao bought a sleeper berth.

The next evening, Zhou Rong came out of the train station in good spirits.

"Sister, here."

Zhou Bingkun waved his hand and he came too, so he wanted to take a look at the train station.

Also accompanying were Zhou Bingyi, Zhou Zhigang and Li Suhua, and the whole family was present.

The parents of the remaining three classmates also came. It should be said that the station was overcrowded and it is now popular to pick up people.

"Mom, dad, brother, Bingkun..."

Zhou Rong was carrying a big baggage, and Cai Xiaoguang next to her helped her pick up another baggage.

"It's good to come back, it's good to come back."

Li Suhua was crying. She couldn't eat or sleep well during this period. If she wasn't afraid of disturbing her nephew, she would call him every day.

Now that I see my daughter returning safely, the big stone in my heart has finally fallen away.

Zhou Rong and Cai Xiaoguang parted ways and returned home with their families.

"Sister, is Beijing fun? Is it particularly prosperous? What does my cousin look like? Is he a nice person?"

Zhou Bingkun had too many questions to ask.

"Wait for your sister to take a rest first."

Li Suhua felt sorry for her daughter.

"Mom, it's okay. My cousin bought me a sleeper ticket. I've slept all day and all night and I'm not tired at all."

Zhou Rong said and put the big bag prepared by Yang Weibiao on the table.

"My cousin asked me to bring you gifts. He is a nice person and very handsome. Also, my cousin has been promoted and is now the canteen director of their factory. His monthly salary is 116 yuan and 5 cents. That’s a lot.

Also, he lives in a courtyard house with three rooms, and his sister-in-law is also very good to me..."

Zhou Rong talked a lot. When she took out the things, it was really a lot of gifts.

What was given to Zhou Bingkun was a big bag of walnuts, which were good for the brain.

What was given to Zhou Bingyi was saffron, which is good for health.

Li Suhua's is a piece of fabric, and Zhou Zhigang's is a bicycle ticket.

Although it is across regions, it can be exchanged and others are willing.

There are also a lot of learning materials, which are really hard to buy in Jichun.

"How much does it cost, and there's such a big piece of bacon."

Li Suhua felt that his nephew was too expensive, and he couldn't make it like this even if he had money.

"Mom, my cousin insists on giving it. He is very kind."

Zhou Rong also knew that her family had taken advantage of her, and she remembered her cousin's kindness in her heart.

Zhou Zhigang said: "You three must remember your cousin's kindness, and you will repay him when you grow up."

Zhou Bingkun nodded. Zhou Bingyi was already flipping through the books next to him. These learning materials were so useful.

"My cousin told us to work hard and get admitted to a university in the capital."

Zhou Rong went to the capital once, although it destroyed the image of Feng Huacheng in her heart.

But she still has a good impression of the capital, especially knowing that three judges did not receive gifts, which further strengthened her persistence in academics.

In a blink of an eye, it’s the third day again, the day when wages are paid every month.

Yang Weibiao received 116 yuan and 5 cents, which was definitely a high salary in this era. He could support a large family and still have some surplus.

Today is also Saturday, and tomorrow is the wedding day of Shazhu and Bai Xiaohong. The two have already talked about it.

In the afternoon, Yang Weibiao helped organize supplies, because some dishes had to be prepared in advance tonight, otherwise it would be too late tomorrow.

When he returned to the courtyard, he found that there was a commotion going on in the middle courtyard. What was going on? Even the wages were being paid.

"Wei Biao, you are back."

Yan Bugui spotted him first and came over to say hello.

"Brother Yang!"

Silly Zhu also ran over and had to pick up something.

"Silly Zhu, everything you want is in the bag. What's going on?"

Yang Weibiao handed the supplies to Shazhu, but his eyes were looking in the direction of Jia's house, which again attracted onlookers outside the house.
