Siheyuan: The Final Winner

  Chapter 313 Undercurrents surge, invited by Liang Ladi

   Early morning.

  People in the courtyard got up very early.

   are all busy chopping up the wild vegetables and weeds picked from the countryside yesterday and feeding them to the chickens.

  There is not enough food for people these days, let alone chickens, which can only be raised with wild vegetables and weeds.

   After Jiang Ping got up and washed, he heard Liu Haizhong say loudly:

   "Anyone who has chickens at home should be diligent and clean, so that the yard doesn't stink."

   "Don't dump the chicken **** out of the house. I asked Guang Qi to find a sack and put it in the firewood room in the middle courtyard."

   "After the chicken feces are collected, they are all poured into sacks, and the person on duty takes them out every morning."

  Liu Haizhong did his best, with his belly full, he informed from the backyard, the middle yard, and the front yard.

  Yan Bugui and his family stood in front of the chicken coop early in the morning, smiling happily.

   "Third Master, are you not serving the flowers and plants now?" Jiang Pingan asked with a smile standing at the door.

  Yan Bugui replied with a smile: "Taking care of flowers and plants, how can you look at a hen?"

   "Ping An, I found that I bought a little less chicken, can you help me buy more in the future?"

  Jiang Ping'an nodded and said: "Let's talk about it next month, let's see if everyone can continue to breed."

   "I'm sure I can persevere, everyone's enthusiasm is very high." The third mom answered.

  Jiang Pingan shook his head and said, "Raising chickens is not that easy. I just started raising chickens now, so the enthusiasm is naturally high."

   "Okay, let's raise it for a while and then look at it. Ping'an's suggestion is safe." Yan Bugui nodded with a smile.

   While talking, Liu Haizhong, Liu Guangqi and his son came out from the middle courtyard.

  After seeing Jiang Ping'an, Liu Haizhong smiled and said:

   "Ping An, everyone said that they would like to thank you for helping to buy chickens, and they will collect some flour for you after the food is paid."

  Yan Bugui patted his forehead and said with a smile, "Look at my memory!"

   "Someone mentioned this matter last night, and everyone responded one after another, saying that you can't help me for nothing."

  Jiang Ping'an smiled and said: "I don't need this, thank you for your kindness for me, keep it for yourself to eat!"

   "Don't refuse, just accept this heavy heart!" Liu Haizhong laughed.

  At this time, Jiang Pingan saw Nan Yi coming, and said in a deep voice:

   "Second Master, Third Master, please tell everyone."

   "From now on, all those who need to sell eggs will be handed over to Nanyi, and let him take them to the rolling mill."

   "It can be exchanged for money, food and cloth tickets, and the price is based on the market price."

  Yan Bugui nodded and said: "According to the market price, if you only sell for money, you will lose money."

   "But if it is exchanged for food and cloth tickets, there will be some profit. In general, it is safest to sell to the factory."

  Nan Yi looked confused. After Jiang Pingan explained it clearly to him, he agreed:

   "Okay, it's my honor to make some contribution to the courtyard."

   "How about this, every Monday morning from now on, we will buy together, and then I will take it to the factory."

  Liu Haizhong nodded and said: "Okay, there will be a general meeting tonight, and I will inform everyone about it by the way."

   After talking and laughing for a while, the adults who had to go to work and the students who went to school came out one after another in the yard.

  Jiang Ping'an checked the time, went back to the house to tidy up a bit, and took the tricycle and bicycle out of the courtyard.

   "Leader, let me ride the tricycle for you!" Nan Yi stepped forward and said with a smile.

  Jiang Pingan took a look at the tricycle and felt that riding a bicycle was indeed much lighter, so he nodded in agreement.

  Just as he was about to pedal away, he saw Xu Damao running out with his bicycle in a panic, pedaled and ran away.

  He Yuzhu chased him out from behind. cursed and said:

   "Xu Damao, don't let me catch you bastard, or I'll beat you out of shit!"

  Yi Zhonghai came out from the courtyard, and scolded: "Zhuzi, what are you doing so early in the morning?"

   "Master, I didn't make trouble, it was Xu Damao, the grandson of the turtle, who molested my Xueying!" He Yuzhu said angrily.

  Yi Zhonghai froze for a moment, frowned and said, "Tell me carefully."

   "There's nothing to say." He Yuzhu gritted his teeth.

   "It's not like you don't know who Xu Damao is, he's full of fluff."

   "He blocked Xueying by the sink just now, saying that five yuan is too expensive!"

   "Tell me, who does he take Xueying for? It's absolutely disgusting!"

   A hint of possibility and hope flashed in Yi Zhonghai's heart, but he said:

   "This kid can't change eating shit, so he should clean it up."

   "But you have to pay attention to the impact, it will be bad for you if things get into trouble."

  He Yuzhu took a deep breath, nodded and said:

   "I know about my uncle, I will pay attention to propriety."

  Yi Zhonghai sighed, turned around and walked up to Jiang Pingan and said:

   "Ping An, I'm afraid you are the only one who can control Xu Damao in the courtyard."

   "You have to criticize and educate him about such things that corrupt the atmosphere."

  Jiang Pingan nodded and said: "Okay, I will warn him later, don't mess around in the yard."

  Yi Zhonghai nodded his head, and could hear the meaning behind his words.

   No messing around in the courtyard, but outside the courtyard, right?

So much the better.

   It seems that I also want to go to Xu Damao's side to inquire about what is going on behind the scenes.

  Seeing that Jiang Ping'an agreed to help, He Yuzhu said happily:

   "Thank you, Section Chief Jiang, I will remember you in this matter."

  Jiang Ping'an shook his head and said, "There's nothing human to talk about. I can only talk about him."

   "Whether he listens to me or not, I don't care. I can't stare at him all day, can I?"

  He Yuzhu nodded and said, "It's a great favor for you to speak for me."

  He has also learned a lot now, and found that Jiang Ping'an takes favors very seriously.

  It's easy to say anything at ordinary times, just a little, he won't help people for nothing.

  He remembers the favors owed to him by others, no matter how big or small.

  …

  It was past two o'clock in the afternoon.

  Jiang Pingan received a call from Liang Ladi.

  She said that the house was rented, and she asked for leave today. She was moving in the morning, and she wanted to invite Jiang Pingan to dinner tonight.

   "There will be a meeting in the courtyard at night, and I have to go to night school, so there is no delay." Jiang Pingan said in a deep voice.

   "Well, I'll sit with you for a while, and let's identify the door first."

  On the other end of the phone, Liang Ladi happily said: "Okay, then I'll wait for you to come over."

   After Jiang Ping'an wrote down the address clearly, he told Jiang Yihu.

  Let him keep watch on the phone, and register first if there is something to do. He will come to deal with it tomorrow, so he will leave work early.

  Summer is hot and sunny.

  Jiang Pingan rode fast all the way, and stopped in front of a tube building.

  Ermao and Sanmao were waiting downstairs, and when they saw Jiang Ping'an arrived, they all gathered around and shouted to Father Jiang.

  Jiang Pingan took out a pack of chestnut cold cakes prepared in advance, and shared a piece with each of the two children.

   Chestnut cold cake is a very traditional special snack.

   Light yellow in color, soft, glutinous, sweet and delicious, rich in chestnut flavor, generally eaten in summer.

  It is made of pure chestnut powder, sugar and sweet-scented osmanthus.

   According to legend, this pastry was originally a high-quality tribute in the court of the Yuan Dynasty, and later spread among the people.

   "Thank you Dad Jiang, what is this?" Er Mao asked doubtfully, swallowing saliva.

  Jiang Ping'an smiled and said, "This is millet seed cold cake. It's delicious. Eat it quickly!"

  Taking a detour to the back of the house with the two children, they saw Liang Ladi leaning against the door, looking at him with a smile.

   "Buying things for the kids again? I told you not to waste money."

   Seeing that the two children were eating snacks, Liang Ladi glared at Jiang Ping'an with sparkling eyes, and said angrily.

  Jiang Ping'an smiled and said, "I'm not prepared today, I have a sample, come on, you can eat a piece too..."
