Siheyuan Back to the 1950s

"Now I declare that Comrades Zhou Weimin and Chen Baosheng have passed the assessment and have been promoted to level nine engineers."

"Bah bang bang...!"

As soon as Sun Zhengguo announced the results, warm applause broke out in the workshop.

Zhou Weimin's situation is not so bad. After all, he has become the deputy director and this time he just wants to prove himself.

But Chen Baosheng was different. After he passed the engineer exam, his salary in the factory soared.

Therefore, he was grinning with joy and clapping his hands until they turned red.

The assessment was over and it was almost noon. Sun Zhengguo had already arranged lunch. In his own words, it was a farewell dinner.

After dinner, the other cadres were still chatting, but Zhou Weimin was the only one who ran to the machinery factory next door and found Sun Zhenghong.

"Wife, I have good news for you. I passed the exam and became an engineer."

Sun Zhenghong was happy to see her husband so happy that she also felt happy. Even though she already knew about this, she still pretended to be surprised.

"Really? That's great, Weimin. How about we celebrate tonight as well?"

"Wife, it seems we are thinking the same thing. What do you think this is?"

As he spoke, Zhou Weimin took out a stack of food coupons from his pocket and shook them in his hand, apparently he had prepared for this.

"Wife, I have already made an appointment with my eldest brother. My house is not big, so we will go to his yard to celebrate in the evening. You should go early to help then."

"okay!"

……

Zhou Weimin didn't return from the machinery factory until the afternoon working hours.

Who knew that as soon as he returned to the office, he received a new task. Sun Zhengguo asked him to see off Engineer Zhang and Director Wu.

OK! This task is really a coincidence. I just happened to go to the Ministry to get my engineer certificate, and then I can buy all the vegetables later. This task is really killing two birds with one stone.

Zhou Weimin understood immediately and thanked him hurriedly, "Thank you, Director... I promise to complete the task."

"Go ahead! Be careful on the road."

Sun Zhengguo just smiled and waved casually.

……

In the evening, the courtyard became lively again, but this time Zhou Weimin's mother was there too.

Now, when Zhou's mother sees her son growing up, she often feels like she is dreaming and it seems very unreal.

She is a country girl, so why are their lives getting better and better? In the past, she would not even have dared to imagine this.

Finally, she summed up one reason, which is that a daughter-in-law brings good luck to her husband.

"Yes! It must be like this." Zhou's mother believed firmly in her heart.

"My dear, what are you thinking about? Let's go and have dinner at that table."

Lin Wencui's arrival interrupted Zhou's mother's reverie, and she quickly stood up holding her grandson.

"Oh! I'm sorry! My dear, I was busy with Wei Min's affairs tonight, but I couldn't help at all."

"Hey! Why are you saying all this? Our two families are so close, there's no need to be so polite. Besides, you're not idle either. Chengdong can't live without you!

Let’s go! Otherwise the food will get cold, let’s eat and talk at the same time.”

"Alas!"

The table of women and children here hasn't started yet, but the table of men over there has already been served wine.

Sun Zhengguo was not stingy tonight and served him with the same small black bottle.

Grandpa followed the old rules and, as the elder in the family, he was the first to pick up the cup and make an opening statement.

"Come on, come on, let's all have a toast to congratulate Wei Min for passing the engineering exam. At the same time, let's wish that everyone in our family will be as successful as a dragon."

"Dry Huai~!"

After a glass of wine, the conversation started freely. After Zhou Weimin toasted several elders one by one, everyone started chatting...

The meal lasted until 8pm. Everyone helped clean up before leaving...

The night is deep.

The exact time is unknown?

Address: In the cellar of the He family in the courtyard.

Two figures were hugging each other, doing something shameful.

After a long time, it was done.

"Ah~! It feels so good."

After not eating meat for a long time, Yi Zhonghai felt that his soul was sublimated and he couldn't help but sigh.

But he felt comfortable, while Qin Huairu was not at all. It was because the weather was too cold.

At this moment, she was wiping it with a piece of toilet paper, then quickly pulling up her trousers. After she was put on, she began to complain.

"Master, the weather is so cold, can we not make an appointment? It will freeze us to death."

To be honest, if Qin Huairu wasn't afraid that Yi Zhonghai was a wolf, she wouldn't have come tonight at all.

"Huai Ru! Don't complain. Otherwise, next time I go to your house, I won't feel cold in bed."

Of course Qin Huairu refused when she heard Yi Zhonghai's proposal.

"Master, this is inappropriate. If my child finds out, how can I face people in the future?"

"How about I give you money? Give more. Didn't you also say that it's my child too? What are you afraid of?"

Yi Zhonghai was still prepared to hold on, so he used money to pave the way again.

After all, he has already got the deaf old lady's treasure, and he is not short of money now.

But it would have been fine if he didn't mention money. Once he mentioned money, Qin Huairu became even more scared.

"Master, I think we should just forget it! I'm not after your money, why are you saying all this? It's really cold tonight, I'm sorry! I have to go back first."

As she spoke, Qin Huairu groped in the dark and climbed up to the cellar.

Yi Zhonghai originally wanted to stop her, but when he thought about the fact that his lover didn’t even ask for money tonight, he thought that she might be too cold.

In order not to arouse her disgust, Yi Zhonghai finally decided to let her go back and rest first.

In case it’s not worth it if it freezes again, this kind of thing has to be done slowly and steadily.

After Qin Huairu left, Yi Zhonghai did not leave. Instead, he sat down and lit a cigarette, thinking about taking out the treasure.

After all, the old lady in the backyard had been dead for some time, and now everything outside was calm.

Yi Zhonghai would be very worried if the treasure was still hidden there.

Although his old lover did not ask for money tonight, Yi Zhonghai knew in his heart that middle-aged and elderly people cannot find happiness without money.

Therefore, the treasure must be taken out, and then you have to go to the black market to exchange it for money, and then... hehe...

Soon, after finishing a cigarette, Yi Zhonghai threw away the cigarette butt, sat up, patted his butt, and walked towards the cellar entrance.

After climbing out of the cellar, Yi Zhonghai was hit by a chill and shivered. He cursed in his heart, "It's so cold." Then he groped in the dark and walked towards the backyard.

In the backyard, on the corridor of Liu Haizhong's house, a pile of miscellaneous items were placed in no order.

At this time, Yi Zhonghai was carefully searching through the pile of miscellaneous items based on his memory, for fear of alarming the Liu family.

In a short while, he took out a wooden box, weighed it, and it felt okay.

Now that the treasure was in his hands, Yi Zhonghai did not stop at all, and groped his way back to his home in the Central Courtyard again.

After arriving home, he first closed the door, sat on a stool in the main room and sat quietly for a while, then turned on the flashlight and prepared to check the treasure.

However, the moment he opened the box, he froze.

What did he see?

Yi Zhonghai almost couldn't believe his eyes, so he rubbed them and looked again, and it was still the same one.

That's right! No matter how you look at it, it's a pile of pig shit! And it's a pile of dry pig shit.

It's really not very harmful, but it's extremely insulting.

"Where's my baby? What's going on with this pig shit? Who can tell me?"

If Yi Zhonghai wasn't afraid of his wife finding out, he would probably have started cursing.

Comrades! Do you think it’s easy for me? I risked being beheaded, but in the end I got this…

"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu"

The heartache is beyond words!

What should middle-aged men do to ensure happiness in the future?
