Siheyuan: debt repayment is a matter of course

With one year of service after becoming a full-time employee, Lin Xiangdong's salary can rise to 35 yuan.

The salary has increased a lot, but the food stamps that can be received every month have not increased much.

When Lin Xiangdong became regular, some people in the factory were upset, such as Xu Damao, and Guo Dashuai.

It is worth mentioning that there are more and more IOUs in Lin Xiangdong's portable space.

The system also has a function, which is synthesis.

When the check-in has accumulated for 30 days, the two IOUs can be combined into one, but the debtors are required to be the same.

For example, if one IOU is that Shazhu owes Lin Xiangdong ten yuan, and the other IOU says that Shazhu owes Lin Xiangdong five yuan, if the two IOUs are combined, then Shazhu owes Lin Xiangdong 15 yuan.

If you clock in for [-] days in total, you will synthesize it twice, if you clock in for [-] days in total, you will synthesize it four times..., and so on.

Too many IOUs are more troublesome, and asking for debts too frequently is not good.

There are only dozens of people in the courtyard, including children.

It was Lin Xiangdong who clocked in for 30 days before the system prompted.

It would be great if there were no restrictions on synthesis, but with the system like this, Lin Xiangdong couldn't help it.

Chapter 40

After becoming a regular, the burden on Lin Xiangdong's shoulders was also heavier.

Today was a rare holiday in the factory, so Lin Xiangdong just slept in at home.

I slept until it was three poles in the sun before getting up.

Looking at the furnishings in the room, Lin Xiangdong was quite satisfied, much better than when he first traveled here.

Originally, there was no decent furniture, but Lin Xiangdong made all kinds of furniture by himself.

Tables, stools, Mazza, and cabinets all seem to be fine.

In fact, Lin Xiangdong didn't know much about carpentry, so he just fiddled with it. For example, a stool, a piece of wood and four legs, should be fixed to make it more beautiful.

In the eyes of people who are skilled in carpentry, the furniture made by Lin Xiangdong has various problems.

And the neighbors in the neighborhood still think that Lin Xiangdong is a good carpenter.

Lin Xiangdong also made a recliner for the deaf old lady, and a Maza for each of the three uncles.

The old lady has a high seniority and a good status, so everyone has to take care of her more or less. Lin Xiangdong doesn't have much dislike for the old lady, and he still wants to get along on the surface.

Of course, Lin Xiangdong also has utilitarianism.

Speaking of which, Lin Xiangdong currently still has a watch ticket.

Some time ago, I went to Yi Zhonghai to ask for the debt, because Yi Zhonghai didn't repay it by himself, so the system decided that the debt was failed, and punished him with fifteen catties of meat tickets, 20 yuan, and a watch ticket.

Yi Zhonghai's family managed to save 21 catties of meat tickets, but only one catty was left.

Originally, he wanted to sell the watch ticket, but now that he has a partner, Lin Xiangdong also changed his mind.

Now, Lin Xiangdong is thinking of collecting three turns and one ring, so that he can have a good time when he gets married.

After all, it is a major event in life, so it can't be too shabby.

After washing his face, Lin Xiangdong saw the old lady come back from a walk.

It would be too late for breakfast and too early for lunch. Lin Xiangdong was not too hungry, so he went out for a walk.

At the entrance of the alley, two old men are playing chess, and several people are watching.

A few more children were playing on the side of the road.

With nothing to do, Lin Xiangdong also walked over to watch people play chess.

After returning home at noon, Lin Xiangdong took out some food from his portable space to heat up.

There is no time in the portable space, which can keep fresh but not keep warm.

The hot food is placed in the portable space, and it gets cold quickly.

In fact, a fresh-keeping function is very good. For example, in the fruit business, the loss can be greatly reduced if it can be kept fresh.

In this day and age, people can't even eat enough food, let alone fruit.

Therefore, fruits are rare and not affordable for ordinary people.

Due to the public-private partnership, the self-employed cannot yet do business.

After lunch, Lin Xiangdong went fishing.

Speaking of fishing, it is better to go outside the city, because there are so many fish.

Yan Bugui also likes to go fishing outside the city, but it used to be too tiring to walk there, and he was reluctant to pay for the trolley bus, but now that he has a bicycle, it is convenient to go fishing outside the city.

Basically, every time Yan Bugui goes fishing outside the city, he gets something.

The fishing rod, bait, bucket, and ponytail were all placed in the portable space, and Lin Xiangdong rode his bicycle to the outside of the city.

……

A wide river, the river is gurgling, not rushing.

There are flowers and trees on both sides of the river bank, and the scenery is still good.

I could also see a few people fishing, but I didn't see Yan Pugui.

Finding a place where no one was around, Lin Xiangdong parked his bicycle, then took out the ponytail and put it on the ground.

Sitting on the pony tie, I started to catch fish.

There was a fish that was relatively close to Lin Xiangdong, but the life index of the fish must have exceeded ten points, so it couldn't be put into the portable space.

Time kept passing.

Lin Xiangdong was also a little depressed after not catching a fish for a long time.

"I have also reached low-level fishing skills, why can't I catch a single fish?" Lin Xiangdong thought to himself.

After a while, finally a fish was hooked.

Lin Xiangdong was also overjoyed to successfully catch a fish.

Although the fish was not big, only two or two more, it made Lin Xiangdong happy.

After patiently fishing for more than two hours, Lin Xiangdong caught three fish, weighing more than half a catty in total.

Fish meat is not as good as pork, and more than half a catty of fish costs two or three cents, but you still need a meat ticket to buy fish.

I ate fish at night, and the fish I caught myself tasted delicious.

If you want to put the fish into the portable space, you have to kill the fish. After all, the life index of these three fish is more than ten points.

……

At home in the evening, Lin Xiangdong made two braised fish and stewed the other fish.

Drinking delicious fish soup, gnawing steamed buns with Erhe noodles, and eating braised fish, Lin Xiangdong was quite content.

Everyone has to look forward, Lin Xiangdong tried his best to adapt to this era and keep up with the pace of life of this era.

Lin Xiangdong also felt novelty about the characteristics of this era.

After eating and drinking, Lin Xiangdong also studied Lu Bansuo.

The last time I went to the countryside to show a movie, I got a tattered old book, which recorded more than a dozen kinds of Luban locks.

He only studied this stuff when he had nothing to do. Whenever there was a TV, Lin Xiangdong would have put the broken books aside.

……

Time flies, the Jia family.

Jia Zhang's whole body is not well, and her gold ring is missing.

Stick is not out of school yet, Xiao Dang is playing in the yard, and Qin Huairu is sitting at the door.

"Qin Huairu, did you steal my gold ring?" Jia Zhang's triangular eyes were full of anger, and he went directly to Qin Huairu.

The gold ring is gone, but the money and tickets are not missing. If it is said that an outsider stole it, Jia Zhang would not believe it.

Last time I lost the money, this time I lost the gold ring, the house thief is getting more and more rampant.

"Your gold ring is missing? I didn't take it!" Qin Huairu looked surprised, but she was also dissatisfied.

No matter what, they are still a family, and Jia Zhang said stealing, which is too ugly.

"My gold ring was stolen." Jia Zhang said angrily, even more anxious.

The last time Jia Zhang found out that he was short of money, he kept the pension book better, but he didn't expect the gold ring to disappear.

Qin Huairu also knew that Jia Zhang had a gold ring, and she was very greedy. Now that Jia Zhang said that the gold ring was stolen, Qin Huairu was not calm.

"Could it be that you forgot somewhere?"

"Would I misplace the gold ring?" Jia Zhang said with a cold face.

"I really didn't take it, so hurry up and look for it!"

After speaking, Qin Huairu started to look for it first.

……

In the factory, Lin Xiangdong had nothing to do and was drinking tea leisurely.

Suddenly, the system beeped.

Putting down the tea mug in his hand, Lin Xiangdong closed his eyes, and felt that there was an extra gold ring in his portable space.

Needless to say, it must belong to the Jia Zhang family.

This gold ring is thirteen grams.

Gold cannot be bought and sold in this era, so it is hard to say how much a thirteen-gram gold ring is worth.

"Maybe we should go to the Pigeon Market and exchange some gold rings for some money." Lin Xiangdong thought to himself.

……

After searching all over the house but not finding the gold ring, Qin Huairu looked helpless.

And Jia Zhang sat down on the ground, crying and patting his thigh.

"What's the matter? Huairu, why is your mother-in-law crying?" The third mother was originally in the yard, and ran over when she heard Jia Zhang's cry.

Qin Huairu didn't say a word, the gold ring would make people jealous.

"My gold ring was stolen, and I will suffer a thousand knives. Lao Jia, Dongxu, take me away." The more Jia Zhang cried, the more sad he became.

"Golden ring?" The third mother was also surprised.

Good guy, this Jia Zhang is really good, even if there is a gold ring, don't put it away.

Mrs. Jia and Zhang are at home almost every day, and the courtyard is full of people. It is extremely difficult for outsiders to steal Mrs. Jia's gold ring.

"Old sister-in-law, don't worry, maybe you forgot where you put it, think about it, and you will definitely find it." The third mother said.

"Hmph, I lost my gold ring, so you're just gloating, right?" Mrs. Jia Zhang was also confused, and couldn't choose what to say.

As soon as Jia Zhang's words came out of his mouth, Qin Huairu knew it was not good.

"Miss Zhang, you can't tell the good from the bad." The third mother left with a dark face, she was too lazy to talk to the old godmother.

Qin Huairu quickly caught up with the third mom and explained, but the third mom didn't listen.

Seeing the three mothers leave angrily, Qin Huairu sighed, her mother-in-law is stupid and bad, and offended others for no reason.

"Mom, the third mother is so kind, how can you say that about her?"

"She's so kind!" Jia Zhang spat.

In order to establish Qin Huairu's character well, she wanted to be an evil mother-in-law anyway, so Jia Zhang didn't pretend anymore.

However, Qin Huairu only wants Jia Zhang to be a wicked mother-in-law, and doesn't want Jia Zhang to offend anyone.

From Jia Zhang's point of view, the conditions of the Yan family are not good, and if they are still digging and searching, the third mother will say a few good things, and can they still help the Jia family?

Therefore, Jia Zhang believes that there is nothing to lose by offending the third mother.

When Qin Huairu said a few words, Jia Zhang was very unhappy. As a mother-in-law, she still needs her daughter-in-law to teach her?
