Siheyuan: Survival Guide for Courtyard No. 95
Chapter 113 Yan Jiecheng prepares for a blind date
After listening to what Old Yan said from beginning to end, Yan Jiecheng's eyes rolled. It was a good thing that Shazhu's blind date failed, because he liked the girl's long legs. He was still thinking about how to ruin this matter, but he didn't expect that man proposes, God disposes.
Thinking of this, an idea suddenly came to him, and he said to his father.
"Dad, I saw that girl yesterday, and I think she's pretty good. How about asking Matchmaker Wang to introduce her to me?"
When Yan Bugui heard what his son said, he almost dropped the cigarette he had just lit. He turned his head and looked up and down at Yan Jiecheng and said.
"The fact that Shazhu's blind date failed has nothing to do with you, right? That guy is angry and doesn't like everyone. If you really have something to do with this, he will definitely beat you up if he finds out."
"Dad, who do you think your son is? How can I do something that will end my family lineage? But I did like that girl yesterday. If Sha Zhu hadn't been dating someone else, I would have taken action.
You see, I am not young anymore, and I have a stable job. If I get married, I can ask the factory if I can get a house. My conditions are not much worse than Sha Zhu's, right?"
If Yan Jiecheng hadn't mentioned the house, Old Yan might not have agreed to this. After all, the girl had just finished a blind date with Sha Zhu, and Old Yan's family went to find another girl for a blind date. Isn't this the same as slapping Old He's family in the face? Sha Zhu might make a scene again.
But since it involves the house, Yan Bugui had to make some calculations. However, he thought that Yan Jiecheng had not yet been converted into a formal employee, so it would not be his turn to get the house, so he couldn't help but ask.
"Jie Cheng, you are still an apprentice, so the factory won't give you a house, right?"
Yan Jiecheng saw that Old Yan's attitude had softened a little, and replied with a chuckle.
"Dad, I've figured all this out. I don't ask for a main house or a wing room. It's not realistic to want to get a house like that now. Isn't there an empty house in the back yard? Given my relationship with Shanhe, it shouldn't be difficult to ask him to help talk to Director Li, who is in charge of logistics. Besides, what's the problem with being an apprentice? Won't I automatically become a regular employee after three years? Won't the factory allocate a house to me by then?
Rather than waiting two years later, it is better to act now. At least you can still live in a courtyard. If you wait two years later, you may not even be able to live in Nanluoguxiang. "
Yan Bugui thought about it and realized that it was indeed the case. In the past two years, not only the steel rolling mill, but other nearby factories have also been vigorously expanding their recruitment. In the past, even if you didn't have a main house, you could still get a wing room. Now, except for cadres and senior employees, no one else can even think about such a good house.
If Yan Jiecheng could get the last back house in the front yard, the eldest son could live in the yard forever. When he gets married and has children, and then has many children, the retirement problem for him and the third aunt would be solved directly.
Thinking of this, he said to Yan Jiecheng.
"As expected of my son, he is quick-witted. Tomorrow I will ask your mother to ask matchmaker Wang who the girl belongs to. I will find a time to show you around. But we have to make some remarks in advance. You have to pay for the matchmaker's money for the blind date."
Yan Jiecheng didn't expect this to happen, and couldn't help but think that his father really calculated everything. However, he also knew that this was not the time to worry about money, so he agreed immediately.
"Don't worry, I'll pay for it."
.......Dividing line.......
Zhao Shanhe was really in a difficult situation today because the purchasing task had reached the most difficult period of the year.
Today, Monday, the Purchasing Department held its regular meeting. In the past, we accepted that the unplanned purchasing tasks could not be completed, because it is difficult to purchase anything as the weather gradually gets colder.
But what he never expected was that the planned purchases also encountered problems. There were no vegetable greenhouses at this time, so he really had to rely on luck for his food.
This year, Hebei has been hit by various disasters. At this time, except for cabbage and potatoes, everything else has become scarce. I heard from the people in Group 3 that the comrade in charge of the connection at the meat processing plant took them to the cold storage and saw that there were only a hundred or so pigs in it. No one dared to touch it without the factory director's note.
After the meeting, Zhao Shanhe went straight to Li Lianjie to report the situation. The other party told him to wait for news, but he didn't think the other party had any good solution. There was no meat in the entire city, could you still conjure it up?
If problems really occurred among the employees because the purchasing department failed to complete its tasks, then he, the deputy section chief in charge of food purchasing, would be the first scapegoat.
After telling Chen Xueru about this at the dinner table, the other party didn't have any good solutions, but still comforted him.
"If it doesn't work out, just quit this deputy section chief job. Your salary is not needed at home. The prices of food in Dazhalan and Qianmen restaurants have gone up. I heard that food prices will go up even more. Do you think we should stock up on more food?"
Zhao Shanhe originally wanted to say no, after all, he had more food in his small world than he could eat up, but then he thought it would be better to listen to Chen Xueru and stock up. He couldn’t tell anyone about this small world of his, and what the two of them knew would no longer be a secret. He still wanted to live to be eighty or ninety years old.
"Go to the pigeon market and buy more food, then put it in your store. Don't take it out to the yard, otherwise people will be jealous if they see you. If an old man comes to you and asks you to help a family in need, will you give it to him?
If you don't give it to him, he will say that you don't unite with your neighbors. If you give it to him, our food doesn't come from the wind, so don't give him the opportunity to be generous to others."
During this period of time, Chen Xueru also learned a lot about what happened in the yard.
It was basically Xu Damao who told Lou Xiao'e, and then Lou Xiao'e told Chen Xueru that she was not as naive as Lou Xiao'e. Even though the old man hadn't caused any trouble recently, she was still on high alert and would never give him any chance.
So after listening to Zhao Shanhe's words, he nodded in agreement.
"Yes, the humanity in this courtyard has been destroyed by the old man and the deaf old lady. I have never seen a second courtyard like this in the city. I think we should move. I heard in the tavern today that Mr. Pian wants to sell his ancestral property, a three-story house. How about I go and ask around and buy it?"
Zhao Shanhe knew what Chen Xueru was talking about as soon as he heard it. In the original drama, Chen Xueru did not hide the truth, but was tricked by Xu Huizhen and got the truth. Not to mention the value of the house, the furniture in the room alone would be worth a lot of money.
Only Pian Ye didn't know how to do it, otherwise how could Xu Huizhen get such an advantage? Thinking of how Xu Huizhen shrugged him off when he and Chen Xueru were getting married, Zhao Shanhe said that he would never let the other party get such a big advantage.
Even if you buy it and don't live in it, just leaving it there is better than letting Xu Huizhen take advantage of it.
"You can go and ask around first. If it's suitable, you can buy it directly. But forget about moving there. Although the people in this courtyard are not very good and it's always a troublesome thing when something happens, what does it have to do with us? We can just treat it as a show. How can other courtyards have so much fun?"
After hearing what Zhao Shanhe said, Chen Xueru also reacted. There are three great gods in the courtyard house No. 95, one is the river crab aunt, two are the reader masters, and three are the dog authors. If they really want to move away, they will probably die soon. So she stopped talking about moving. Wouldn't it be better to use this time to practice martial arts?
