Siheyuan: I am Du Shouyi

Chapter 51 Bird Food
Qin Huairu's life has become more and more difficult recently.After the death of her husband, the rolling mill will have a monthly living allowance, which will be distributed according to the head of the family.At that time, a family could barely support it.After she went to work after confinement, the money would naturally stop.

Now she is exhausted every day, and her salary is not as high as when she received the relief money.The family has five mouths, and the monthly income is less than 20 yuan.Qin Huairu didn't even know how to live the days to come.

Seeing the family life in the courtyard getting more and more prosperous, Xu Damao, Sha Zhu, Du Shouyi led the beautiful girls in one by one.

In the beginning, Qin Huairu secretly compared who was more beautiful with the girls.After a long time, she also figured it out, how does she compare with others?Those girls are all in the clouds, but she, a widow, is in the mud, there is no comparison.

All these incidents made her more and more desperate, and finally reached a critical point.

When she came home from get off work this afternoon, exhausted, there were two large basins of dirty clothes and diapers outside, buzzing with flies.

As soon as I entered the house, there was only half of the cornbread left in the pot, and the vegetables were gone.Half a lump of pickles on the table became the last straw that broke the camel's back.

The more Qin Huairu thought about it, the more wronged she became, her hands and feet softened, she sat down on the ground and began to cry.The more she cried, the more sad she became, and she couldn't stop.

The people in the courtyard came to check on the situation when they heard the commotion, and the women pulled Qin Huairu up in a hurry.At first, I thought she had broken it, but no matter how I asked Qin Huairu, she didn't say anything.In the end, it was the big mother who helped her to her own room.

Du Shouyi and Gong Xiaobei went out for a walk, and when they came back, they only saw the end.It turned out that he thought it was Qin Huairu's postpartum depression. Hearing that Gong Xiaobei came back and told him about the corn buns, Du Shouyi was also speechless.It was indeed a miserable day, and even he couldn't stand it anymore.

Gong Xiaobei knew that Du Shouyi was wary of Qin Huairu, but he couldn't help but said, "Shouyi, let's help Sister Qin."

Du Shouyi thought for a while and said, "You know, I went to look for rations for Erha at noon today, but there weren't many good things.

Why don't you tell Sister Qin, isn't her hometown in the countryside backed by mountains?Let her help collect some of the wild walnuts in the mountains.If you don't want to grow in the field, you should use wild ones. "

"Is this a little less? How much can Erha eat?"

"It's quite a lot, let me do the math for you. Wild walnuts don't produce meat. Calculated according to Erha's appetite of one catty a day, plus the skin and shell, it will cost four catties more than five catties, right? Don't talk about it in a year It is 60 catties. If you want to charge it at [-] cents per catty, it will be [-] yuan.

The wild fruits picked up in this mountain are worthless, and they are worth a penny and a pound.After excluding transportation costs, Sister Qin can save more than 100 yuan a year, which is equivalent to raising her salary by three or four grades. .”

Erha eats fruits, vegetables, and corn, and he also finds worms to eat. The food is good, how can he get so many wild fruits?

Besides, wild walnuts in the mountains can be sold for a catty with belt shells?Good walnuts can't be sold at this price, can they?
Listening to Du Shouyi's blind calculation there, Gong Xiaobei couldn't help laughing in his heart.This man was convincing at the time, and he was assuming that he would not let the Jia family get a penny. Isn't he thinking of others now?
But this knife-mouthed tofu-hearted appearance is really reassuring. Who wants to spend a lifetime with a hard-hearted person?

After Du Shouyi finished the calculation, Gong Xiaobei said, "Erha's ration money should be mine."

"Don't mind? Which round will I get you? Let's make an agreement. I will be responsible for making money to support the family, and you will be responsible for being beautiful."

Gong Xiaobei smiled, "Okay, okay, it's all up to you."

The plan was finalized, Gong Xiaobei took half a watermelon and went to Da Ma's house, where Qin Huairu was eating.

After she left, Du Shouyi took out the calligraphy and paintings collected today and began to appreciate them.Among the words collected today, his favorite is a cursive script by Li Dongyang.Because of some damage, the value was much lower, but Du Shouyi didn't care much about these things. What he valued was words.

Li Dongyang was one of the three important ministers of Emperor Hongzhi of the Ming Dynasty. This man is really a template for a "smart cadre".

He was a top student when he was young, and he was "not valued by the prime minister" after entering the court, but he was kept on the lookout.Then he rose to the top and resigned all the way.Even the emperor forbade him, but his own weight was getting heavier and heavier.

In his life, he was so unrevealed that he was even ridiculed by the radicals as a "prime minister with food". However, he made good friends with the ruling and opposition parties, scholars, and eunuchs, and made many friends and few enemies.

He was the only one of the three people Hongzhi Emperor Tuogu worked until he retired safely, and the evaluation given by later generations is not low.This kind of wisdom in life is also part of the traditional culture of planting flowers, and it needs to be realized by people.

After admiring the banner for a while, Gong Xiaobei came back cheerfully.When Du Shouyi saw her like this, he knew that the result was very good.

"It's done. Fortunately, there is a big mother to help persuade, otherwise Sister Qin would not agree."

"Well, that's good. I saw Lou Xiao'e just now, why does she seem to be avoiding you?"

"Is there? I don't think so."

Lou Xiaoe was indeed avoiding Gong Xiaobei.

The two entered the courtyard at about the same time. Du Shouyi said that Lou Xiao'e was a nice person, so Gong Xiaobei accepted her from the beginning.But after hearing her father's words, Lou Xiao'e didn't dare to approach Gong Xiaobei herself, because her family background made her more or less guilty.

Today, when Qin Huairu was crying, she also went to see it. After meeting Gong Xiaobei, she said hello and avoided it.Gong Xiaobei didn't notice it, but Du Shouyi, who was a little farther away, noticed it.

Du Shouyi just asked, not paying attention at all.Lou Xiao'e can't do anything harmful.

On the contrary, it was Du Shouyi himself who most likely lost his son He Xiao.Sometimes thinking of this, he faintly felt a little sorry for others.

But Lou Xiao'e can still regenerate when she arrives in the fishing village.Didn't He Xiao say that he still has a younger brother named 'Chen Yunan' in the fishing village?Maybe Lou Xiaoe's second marriage would be more harmonious without He Xiao?Du Shouyi could only comfort himself like this now.

There was nothing to say all night until it was time to sign in the next day.

"Ding, the host's reward for signing in today is RMB 30000."

'How many? ! Du Shouyi saw the thick stack of RMB in the space to confirm that the system really gave 3 yuan.

'Sign in twice a week for money, and so much? !This is to make trouble! '

At noon, he made an appointment with the old man in the black market, and Du Shouyi immediately thought of this: 3 yuan is equivalent to his 150-year salary. How many good things can this be exchanged for? !He began to look forward to the noon appointment.

When it was time to meet, the old man brought a pair of plum vases and two or three calligraphy and paintings.The asking price is not high, as long as two hundred and two, you can still bargain down.

Looking at the burden in front of him, Du Shouyi was a little disappointed. He looked at the old man and asked, "It's gone?" He took out a thick wad of money from his bag and said, "Brother, do you look down on me?"

The old man was taken aback by the stack of ten-yuan bills.This is only the second time they met, and the two of them are not much better than strangers, so this money is so exposed?This kid can't be a stick, can he?

"Brother, you are also a master of money, I am not afraid to show my truth in front of you. We know that people don't speak dark words, there are workers in the black market, and it is not convenient for us to come and go frequently in our identity.

Today, I will give you the answer, and you will also give me the answer.You can take out all the old things together, so don't take them out bit by bit.I don't plan to take this bag of money back today. "

　A book friend mentioned 'soy sauce'.I'm already a little confused, and I forgot whether I said it or not. 'Soy juice' is the leftovers of making vermicelli, it is made of mung beans, and it is not the same thing as soy milk made from soybeans.Isn't mung bean soup always said to be a loser?Therefore, it is said that soybean juice can also detoxify and relieve internal heat. Of course, believe it or not, that is the case.
