Siheyuan: The road to counterattack for the little transparent

Qin Huairu was immediately displeased when she saw this scene: "Mom, why do you talk to your children like this? You can't be so partial. Banggeng is your grandson, so aren't Xiaodang and Huaihua ours? Look how scared the two sisters are."

"Humph! They are definitely ours. It's your own fault that you gave birth to two money-losing babies."

After saying this, Jia Zhang poured all the remaining porridge in the bowl into her mouth, picked up a few large pieces of food with her chopsticks and stuffed them into her mouth. After rolling her eyes at the mother and daughter, she walked out of the yard and stared in the direction of the public toilet.

As soon as Banggeng returned home from using the toilet, he heard the crying of Xiaodang and Huaihua, accompanied by Qin Huairu's voice of comfort.

Just as he was about to walk into the house, Jia Zhang stopped him at the door and said, "Bang Geng, tell me the truth, is it because there is no meat at home that you don't want to eat lunch today?"

Banggeng hurried home to check what was going on. He shook off Jia Zhang's hand and said, "Grandma, I had meat buns at noon today." He left after saying that.

When Jia Zhang heard this, she thought that her eldest grandson might really be sick, as he was dreaming about meat buns in broad daylight, so she hurried back to the Jia family.

"Bang Geng, what did you just say about eating meat buns today? Where did you eat them? You kid, are you possessed by a ghost? Why are you talking nonsense?"

"Grandma, I didn't lie to you. Today, my silly uncle took me to the steamed bun shop on the next street and bought me three big meat buns. They were so delicious and fragrant. I ate so much that I was full."

Hearing this, Xiaodang and Huaihua stopped crying, and Qin Huairu also released her arms around her two daughters, and they all looked at Banggeng in surprise.

After a while, Qin Huairu asked, "Did your silly uncle really buy you three big meat buns?" Banggeng nodded repeatedly.

Qin Huairu changed her tone and said, "I'm telling you, even the worker with the biggest appetite in our workshop only eats two big meat buns at most. How come you ate three?"

Bang Geng smiled smugly when he heard this, and after scratching his messy hair, he said, "Hey, Mom, I almost couldn't finish it. I just barely finished it because you always said that we shouldn't waste food."

"Hey, silly boy, think about your family. If you can't finish it, save it for your sisters. By the way, why did your silly uncle buy you meat buns?"

Hearing Qin Huairu's question, Bang Geng immediately laughed: "Mom, Uncle Sha asked me which female teacher in the school is pretty. I said that Teacher Ran in our class is the prettiest and speaks softly. I also told him that Teacher Ran is coming to visit our home tonight. After hearing this, Uncle Sha immediately took me to buy three meat buns to eat."

After a pause, he continued with a smile: "Mom, I think Uncle Sha wants to date Teacher Ran, do you think so?"

Jia Zhang was very happy to hear this. After all, if Sha Zhu found a partner and got married, her biggest worry would be gone.

She walked up to him and praised him for his edibility, saying that a real man should eat meat and drink wine with big mouthfuls. Then she said with a smile, "My eldest grandson is smart enough to see through Shazhu's thoughts. Grandma thinks you are right. That's great!"

Only Qin Huairu, who was sitting at the table, remained silent. She couldn't understand why Sha Zhu, who always obeyed her, was thinking about Teacher Ran from Banggeng School after not speaking for a while.

Is it because I haven't taken the initiative to help him clean up the house during this period? But she can't be blamed for this. It's Sha Zhu who seems to be avoiding her. She has never met him even once even though they live in the middle courtyard.

On the other hand, Sha Zhu was fidgeting the whole afternoon as he was about to meet Teacher Ran in the evening. He felt that time was passing so slowly that he couldn't even get his work done.

Fortunately, the steel rolling mill canteen is closed at night, and the work in the canteen is all about moving and cleaning, which everyone can do. Of course, no one dares to say a word to Sha Zhu for not working.

There was still an hour before the end of get off work, but Director Wang of the cafeteria walked into the kitchen at this time. He saw that everyone was busy while Sha Zhu was leaning on a chair with his eyes narrowed and humming a song. He immediately rolled his eyes.

After coughing twice on purpose, he said, "Everyone, listen to me. The factory leaders are hosting a party tonight. We need to prepare meals for eight people. He Yuzhu, Ma Hua, Fatty, Liu Lan, you guys should stay and work overtime."

"Others, go and clean the canteen. Make sure there are no blind spots. Once you've cleaned it up, you can go home."

When Sha Zhu heard that he had to work overtime tonight, it was like a bolt from the blue. He was stunned for a while before muttering, "Why do we have to entertain tonight when we can entertain any other day? This is so unlucky."

There had been no reception tasks for many days, and he thought he could get off work and go home on time today as well. He was thinking about getting ready after returning home in the evening and going to the front yard to chat with the third uncle and see what Teacher Ran looked like. After all, he had to pass through the front yard to go to the Jia family.

As luck would have it, Director Wang happened to hear what Sha Zhu said, and he asked angrily, "He Yuzhu, who do you think is unlucky?"

"I'm the one who blames the unlucky one. I can't do anything if you want to take the blame. Don't you agree?"

Sha Zhu was unhappy about having to work overtime tonight but he couldn't say it out loud. He was feeling depressed, and Director Wang's question was like hitting him in the face, so he naturally started to be rude.

Director Wang was so angry that his lips trembled: "You, you, you...He Yuzhu, this is the arrangement of the factory leaders. You have to do it whether you want to or not. It's up to you!" After saying that, he threw down a piece of paper and left.

Sha Zhu was just talking at this time. Although he was reluctant, he still had to rely on this job to support himself and his sister, so he didn't dare to go on strike at all.

The piece of paper left by Director Wang contained exactly the dishes and flavors that the leader required. After reading it once, Sha Zhu memorized it and showed the paper to Ma Hua and Fatty, and then they started to get busy.

Supplies were scarce, and even at the small canteen, there were only two more dishes than the big pot at noon. However, the dishes were cooked in small pots and were much more fragrant than those in the big pot.

After Sha Zhu led Ma Hua and Fatty to prepare the dishes, the bell for the end of get off work rang and soon the leaders all walked into the canteen.

Director Wang told them to start, and Sha Zhu began to cook, with Ma Hua and Fatty helping out. After a busy meal, several delicious dishes were brought to the canteen by Liu Lan.

Of course, before serving, some dishes, such as meat dishes, would be secretly packed by Sha Zhu and put into the lunch boxes.

Sha Zhu was in a hurry to go home, so he asked Liu Lan to ask Deputy Director Li while serving the dishes. After learning that there was no need to cook any other dishes, he quickly took off his three-piece suit. At this time, Ma Hua had already considerately put the lunch box into his bag.

"Everyone, I have to leave first because of something at home. If the director asks, you can tell him that I have a terrible headache and I have to go home to rest first."

As soon as he finished speaking, Sha Zhu picked up his bag and walked away, quickly heading towards the courtyard...
