Siheyuan: Happy Life of Jia Zhang Family

Jia Dongxu did not fry the rabbit today, because rabbit meat requires more heat, and if it is not cooked in a short time, it will affect the taste. It happened that there were a few meat dishes and some salted fish today, so they sat down to cook two tables. The men ate in the living room, while Zhang Cuihua, Zhang Lianhua and the children went to the central courtyard.

"Da Mao, now that you've become the factory director, who will show us movies in the future?" He Yuzhu suddenly asked.

"I'm also worried about this matter. Director Xu wanted me to find one, and if I can't find one, I should train one. But the time is too tight. Where can I find someone?" Xu Damao said with a wry smile.

"Da Mao, I can't find anyone to show the movie for you, but isn't it hard to find an apprentice? My younger brother is good," Jia Dongxu pointed at Chang Kuan and continued, "Although Xiao Kuan is not smart, he is honest and sincere to others. I feel that when it comes to accepting an apprentice, ability is one aspect, but character is more important," said Jia Dongxu.

"Brother Dongxu, what you said makes sense. But I don't have much time for training. It was no big deal to spend a few years in the past, but I'm very busy now, especially at the beginning of the embroidery factory. I was thinking of letting Xiaokuan study with my father for a while. When he has learned the basics, he can learn from me for a while. I will take some time to take him to the countryside, and then he will be able to operate independently." Xu Damao agreed after a little thought.

It is difficult to refuse Jia Dongxu's recommendation. What Jia Dongxu said is also right. Chang Kuan is not smart, but he is not stupid either, and he is indeed a good person. Just like Jia Dongxu's ability is indeed low, but he is really loyal to Yi Zhonghai. After going through all these things, who in the whole factory does not envy Yi Zhonghai for having such a loyal apprentice, who can provide for him in his old age.

"Thank you, Brother Damao. Master is kind enough to give me such an opportunity. Let me kowtow to you." Chang Kuan was honest and kowtowed to Xu Damao. With the witness of He Yuzhu and Jia Dongxu, Xu Damao completed his apprenticeship.

Xu Damao was very happy because the factory's film business had a new person to inherit and he had a new apprentice; Jia Dongxu was also very happy because he saw that Xu Damao gave him so much face and his good brother was transferred from the loading and unloading team to a relatively easy place, so of course he was happy; not to mention Chang Kuan, his life had hope again, and it was the best job, so he couldn't help but be happy; He Yuzhu was also happy because everyone was happy and he was also a person who liked to help others.

When drinking with good friends, a thousand cups are not enough. People tend to drink too much when they are happy. This is the case with them today. He Yuzhu drank too much, needless to say, Jia Dongxu gets drunk every time he drinks. Chang Kuan doesn't drink, so he gets drunk the fastest. Xu Damao basically doesn't drink anymore and has become a very rational person, so he will be fine tonight.

After the drinking party was over, Xu Damao first helped Jia Dongxu to the bed in the middle courtyard, and then sent He Yuzhu back home. At this time, Liu Chuncao was worried about her son and came over. When Xu Damao saw that it was her, he asked her to help Chang Kuan back.

Liu Chuncao supported her son and walked towards home while scolding him, "I asked you to come and do something, but what did you do? Zhang Cuihua doesn't know anything, you just drink. Can't you consider your mother's feelings?"

"Mom, there's no need to ask Aunt Jia, Brother Dongxu did it for us," Chang Kuan said, raising his head.

"What? Dongxu did it for you? You went to the post office to deliver the letter? Thank God." Liu Chuncao let go of his son, put his palms together and bowed to the sky.

Chang Kuan on the other side had drunk too much and fell to the ground without his mother's support. After struggling to stand up, he began to vomit violently.

"You drank too much," Liu Chuncao quickly patted her son on the back.

After vomiting for a while on the roadside, Chang Kuan felt much better and returned home accompanied by his mother.

"Did Xiaokuan really go to deliver the letter?" Liu Chuncao asked her son again.

"I'm not going to deliver the letter. Did I say I was going to deliver the letter?" Chang Kuan said after drinking some water.

"You lied to me, are you sick? I'm your mother, do you have to lie to me?" When Liu Chuncao heard her son's words, she came over and kicked and beat him.

"Mom, stop hitting me. I want to go to the steel mill," said Chang Kuan.

"What? Steel rolling mill? Does Dongxu have that ability? Is it run under the name of his uncle?" Liu Chuncao asked his son again.

"No, today Brother Damao became the director of the embroidery factory and can't show movies. The factory asked him to find an apprentice. Brother Dongxu recommended me to Brother Damao, and now I have become his apprentice. Tomorrow I will go to the cinema to learn from my master," said Chang Kuan.

"Really? Is it the projectionist? That's a good position, one of the eight major positions, and the best position at that. God is really merciful. If your father knew, he would close his eyes in the underworld. Your brother took your father's position. You have no job, and your family has no money. I was afraid that you would not have a good life and would blame me and your father. Now you are fine." Liu Chuncao sobbed as she spoke, and at the end she hugged her youngest son and burst into tears.

"Old Liu, why are you crying? Chang Kuan made you angry." The neighbor of the Chang family heard Liu Chuncao crying and came in.

"The child just drank some wine, why are you so sad? Come on, stop crying," the neighbor advised.

When Liu Chuncao saw her neighbor coming and she didn't show any intention of crying, she stood up and poured a glass of water for her neighbor.

"Xiao Kuan drank a lot. Who did he drink with?" asked the neighbor.

"Dongxu from Brother Youfu's family invited him to drink tonight, so he drank a few more glasses," said Liu Chuncao.

"And Brother Fu, how many years has it been since Brother Fu died? Can't you just talk about Jia Dongxu from Zhang Cuihua's family? By the way, Dongxu is also a leader now, a real team leader, in charge of more than 20 people. Whoever sees him now has to call him Captain Jia," said the neighbor.

"Yes, the Jia family is very powerful now. Dongxu has also become a cadre, and Sister Zhang's whole family are cadres. Her own official position is higher than her son's. You can see that people are so different," said Liu Chuncao.

"Zhang Cuihua's brother from her mother's side is capable, can your brothers do the same? Besides, Zhang Cuihua also has real abilities, otherwise she wouldn't be able to do it even if she had connections," the neighbor said again.

"Who doesn't know her abilities? We used to be together every day," said Liu Chuncao.

"Are there any good things happening between you two? Greeting each other's ancestors?" The neighbor also laughed. "By the way, Xu Fugui's Damao is also a leader. He was recommended to the factory leaders by Zhang Cuihua," the neighbor said again.

"Really? Zhang Cuihua has a special ability?" Liu Chuncao couldn't believe it.

"Mom, it's true. My master said tonight that it was Aunt Jia who recommended him to Director Xu," Chang Kuan interrupted.

"Xiao Kuan, I heard you mentioned master? Who is your master?" asked the neighbor.

"It's Director Damao. He's a leader now and can't show movies anymore. Dongxu recommended Xiaokuan to him. He thought Xiaokuan was a good guy, so he accepted him," Liu Chuncao explained with a smile.

The neighbor immediately lost interest in continuing the conversation and left with an excuse.
