I am doing well in the Siheyuan

Yi Zhonghai still didn't give up. He thought that at least letting the other person meet him and taste Sha Zhu's cooking skills would probably leave a good impression on him.

"Old Yi, you also mentioned that Sha Zhu was in prison for the Qin family, and the widow's family's affairs are complicated. The relationship with the Qin family is unclear, and he just got out of prison. This matter is really difficult for me to handle."

Yan Bugui is not as foolish as Liu Haizhong. He knows that he cannot do such a loss-making business without any calculation.

Yi Zhonghai sighed, realizing that he couldn't convince Yan Bugui in the short term, so he could only pick up the noodles and go back in disappointment.

This matter still needs to be planned slowly.

After two days of heavy snow, the festive atmosphere in the streets and alleys of the city became increasingly strong.

On New Year's Eve, Ye Ming brought Xiaoxin, who was wearing a red jacket, to the aquatic area of ​​Beixinqiao Market early.

When ordinary people in Beijing celebrate the New Year, hairtail is a must on the table. This saltwater fish lives sixty meters deep in the sea and cannot be artificially cultivated.

The hairtail sold on the market is basically caught in the Yellow Sea and Bohai Sea.

Ye Ming likes it, and so do the people of the city.

Especially during the period before the New Year, if you come too late, you won’t be able to get the goods at all.

Once upon a time, hairtail was not popular in Beijing, just like crabs that cost eight cents per pound.

However, in recent years, due to the shortage of food supplies and the shortage of fish, shrimp and other ingredients, newspapers and restaurants have begun to promote these foods that no one paid attention to in the past.

There is no other way, so just give it a try.

The result was really delicious.

The extremely tender fish meat is almost boneless and is loved by people of all ages.

The price of hairtail has skyrocketed like a runaway horse.

The price of headless hairtail has risen from 1.9 cents per catty at the initial stage to the current highest price of 47 cents per catty.

Of course, the most sought-after item on the market is the wide-bodied hairtail fish, which costs 3.8 cents per pound and is often in short supply.

During every festive occasion, this dish is a must-have on every family’s table.

After purchasing the ingredients needed for New Year’s Eve, Ye Ming rushed back home carrying a full package.

"Oh, you bought so many delicious foods?"

I met Yan Bugui's family in the alley, and they greeted us warmly.

It’s the New Year, so no matter what conflicts there were before, they have to be put aside temporarily today.

Ye Ming didn't put on airs and responded with a smile.

However, after walking a few steps, he ran into He Yuzhu's family again.

It seems that they have been living a good life recently. In just a few days, their bodies have become noticeably rounder.

"Look at this situation, Ye Ming, you are living a very comfortable life now, you even took my position!"

He Yuzhu already knew who reported him and put him in jail.

This is not a minor friction.

The four months behind bars still make him feel miserable when he thinks back on it.

That's really not a life for human beings.

"You can barely get by. Once you get out, you have to start a new life and don't make mistakes again, otherwise no one can save you."

During the Spring Festival, Ye Ming's sharpness seemed to have diminished a lot.

At least that's how he felt about himself.

But when He Yuzhu heard this, he misunderstood it as a provocation.

Anger suddenly surged in my heart.

"I say you are even worse than Xu Damao. Although he is a bad guy, he doesn't hide his true colors. But you are the one who stabs me in the back."

"Don't you dare talk about my brother!"

Before Ye Ming could refute, Xiao Xin took the lead and stared at He Yuzhu with wide eyes.

"Hey, how can a grown man like me be scared by a little girl like you? Ye Ming, don't hide behind your sister. If you don't make things clear today, you won't be able to celebrate this New Year!"

Ye Ming's face darkened and his expression turned cold.

Good words can't persuade the devil to die.

Although Xu Damao was in jail for two months, he had become much more restrained and learned some rules.

In contrast, He Yuzhu did not learn any lesson from the four months in prison and was completely unaware of the external situation.

"If you want me to have a bad New Year, I will make your life miserable!"

Ye Ming's words were calm and powerful, which weakened He Yuzhu's momentum suddenly. The words he was about to rebut were stuck in his throat and he couldn't utter them.

The deaf old lady had specifically warned him to stay away from Ye Ming, fearing that he would offend others again by speaking without restraint and even lose his job in the factory.

This is by no means alarmist.

In just four months, Ye Ming was promoted from an unqualified apprentice to the envied acting deputy director.

He Yuzhu has a stubborn nature and often offends others with his words.

If he was caught in the act at the factory, and with his previous jail history, it would be a piece of cake for Ye Ming to get rid of him.

"Why are you so arrogant? Don't think you can do whatever you want just because you have a little power now. Justice is clear and retribution will come. You are so immoral, and sooner or later you will get retribution!"

He Yuzhu had some concerns, but Yu Shui didn't care. She had disliked him for a long time and could not tolerate Ye Ming showing off in front of her.

"Zhu Zi, Yu Shui, aren't you going to the market? What are you doing here?"

Yi Zhonghai appeared in time and felt nervous when he saw Ye Ming’s bad face.

When the old lady reminded him to be careful of Ye Ming, he didn't take it too seriously.

Who would have thought that just after he became a model worker, he switched careers to become an administrative leader.

When it comes to judging people, no one in the hospital can compare to the old lady.

Ye Ming is not someone He Yuzhu can afford to offend.

This guy is a vindictive person. If he loses his job, he will probably just become like Xu Damao and collect scraps on the street.

"Xiao Ye, Yu Shui is immature and doesn't take her words seriously. Don't take it to heart."

"It's really ignorant."

Seeing Yi Zhonghai playing the role of peacemaker again, Ye Ming glanced at him. He didn't want to make a big deal out of it during the New Year.

"you……"

"It's getting late. If it's any later, you won't even be able to buy cabbage!"

Yi Zhonghai promptly interrupted Yu Shui’s opportunity to continue making trouble.

He Yuzhu saw his attitude towards Ye Ming, which clearly had some flattering meaning.

After he was released from prison, he heard a lot of rumors about Ye Ming, all kinds of stories.

Now it seems that those rumors may not have been exaggerated.

This kid is definitely different now.

"Xiao Xin, let's go home."

Seeing that the two men knew what was going on and stopped talking, Ye Ming didn't bother to waste time talking to them.

After they walked away, Yi Zhonghai immediately changed his expression.

"Stupid! Have you forgotten your grandma's words so quickly? I told you to avoid Ye Ming when you see him, but you still think you haven't suffered enough in prison?"

He Yuzhu had never heard Uncle Yi speak to him in such a harsh tone, and he instantly lost his confidence.

"It is precisely because I have suffered so much in prison that I feel indignant."

If anyone else encountered such injustice, it would be difficult to swallow it.

Yi Zhonghai pondered for a moment and his tone gradually softened.

"If you can't even bear this little grievance, how can you achieve great things in the future? If you want to compete with others, you must first strengthen your own strength.

If you are in this state now, one word from others can make you lose your job in the factory."

"Is that kid really that capable?"

He Yuzhu frowned and thought, it seemed a little unbelievable based on rumors alone.

After all, he clearly remembered what Ye Ming looked like before.

"His abilities are far beyond your imagination! Come on, stop thinking about it and live your life first."
