Siheyuan: I am the Smart Pillar

Chapter 207 Let's Become Sworn Brothers

Liu Chunhua quickly stopped his mother-in-law. He felt that He Yuzhu would never do such a thing. Although he was not very familiar with He Yuzhu before, the neighbors who had come to know him during this period of time felt that this person was a very upright person. He would not do such sneaky things. His mother-in-law just wanted to do whatever she wanted.

Jia Zhang was obviously unhappy. She said to her daughter-in-law in a displeased manner, "Liu Chunhua, what do you mean by this?" Liu Chunhua stroked the hair by her ears, thought for a while and said, "I don't think He Yuzhu would do such a thing. Think about it, if he really stole this big pork leg from the cafeteria, would he be able to take it home so openly?"

Jia Dongxu thought about it and felt that what his wife said made sense. If he had stolen such a big pig leg, he would definitely not dare to take it home so openly. Jia Dongxu also knew that he was not so smart, but he also understood that if he falsely accused others, he would definitely be punished. His job in the steel mill was not easy to do. If he really did this, it would be fine if he succeeded. If he failed, he would definitely be in trouble.

She quickly stopped her old mother who was about to go out to complain, pressed Jia Zhang on the chair and said, "Mom, Chunhua is right. If we make a wrong complaint, your son's work will definitely be affected. And I've heard from my co-workers recently that Shazhu is giving special treatment to the leader every day. This big pork leg is probably a reward from the leader. And today, another senior leader came to inspect our steel mill. This pork leg is probably a reward from that leader."

Jia Zhang got angry when she heard this, and her old face was full of ferociousness. She jumped up and down with a dark face and cursed, "These black-hearted people, don't they know that our Jia family is in a difficult situation? Such a big pig leg, why don't you reward us Jia family? If it is rewarded to us, we can improve our food. These leaders are really black-hearted, are those eyes on their faces just for venting? Dongxu, can't you report it to the higher-ups? Our family is so poor, the factory leaders should help us."

Jia Dongxu wiped the sweat off his forehead, wondering how his mother had the courage to say these words. Is their family really poor? In Jia Dongxu's heart, he didn't think they were that poor. When his father died, he left them and their son a legacy of more than 600 yuan. In addition, every time salary was paid in recent years, his mother took most of her salary, calling it saving money for herself. Jia Dongxu thought to himself that the total savings over the years should be at least more than 1000 yuan.

Plus, he married Liu Chunhua, who was a second-level fitter. His monthly salary was 37 yuan, plus Jia Dongxu's dozen yuan, so his monthly salary added up to 5 yuan. Don't underestimate this 50 yuan in this era. If you can earn 50 yuan a month, you can be said to be one of the people with a very high monthly income.

Jia Dongxu cursed in the house for more than half an hour. After cursing He Yuzhu, he cursed Yi Zhonghai. He cursed every household in the yard. Jia Dongxu was very upset. Jia Dongxu didn't want to listen to his mother's nagging, so he put on a coat and left the house. Liu Chunhua was so angry that she left like this. What should he do?

Jia Dongxu walked to the door of Yi Zhonghai's house with a dark face. Just when he was about to knock on the door, he heard Bai Xiuying's words. Bai Xiuying was full of sorrow, shaking her head and said, "Zhonghai, let's adopt a child outside. Look at these young people in the yard, who will take care of us in our old age? Shazhu is a good kid, but he can't take care of us in our old age. Look at Jia Dongxu's performance tonight, I feel a little bad."

Yi Zhonghai was smoking while listening to what the old lady said. He sighed and said, "This Jia Dongxu was corrupted by his mother, and now he has no manliness at all. Just now, his mother was beaten like that, and Jia Dongxu was scared like a quail. I also think this child is a bit cowardly, but it will be a bit troublesome to adopt a child from an orphanage."

Jia Dongxu was standing at the door listening to what his master and his mistress said. These words were like a knife stabbing into his heart. He really didn't expect that his master would say this about him behind his back. Was he really a coward? Jia Dongxu's face was dark and scary. He snorted coldly and left the door of Yi Zhonghai's house. But he really didn't want to go home now, so he wanted to go out for a walk.

When he walked to the middle courtyard, he unconsciously glanced at He Yuzhu's house. He saw He Yuzhu entertaining Xu Damao and Yan Fugui. Jia Dongxu almost drooled when he smelled the fragrance in the air. He glared at He Yuzhu's house fiercely, put on his coat and went outside. He wanted to calm down. These messy things in the family made Jia Dongxu feel exhausted.

In He Yuzhu's home, Qin Huairu and his sister He Yushui were eating pig's trotters in the small room. He felt that his life was like a fairy's life, which was something he could never imagine before. He wanted to marry into the city before, thinking that it would be great if he could have a full meal every day. He didn't expect that now that I'm married into the city, I have meat every now and then.

Qin Huairu felt so happy that she almost didn't know where she was, and she felt so light all over. Qin Huairu added a piece of fat meat to He Yushui, and the two sisters-in-law ate very happily. In the main room, Xu Damao was drinking and talking drunkenly with He Yuzhu. Xu Damao shook his head and said, "Zhuzhu, I admire your cooking skills very much. I, Xu Damao, didn't look down on you at all before, but since these days, I feel that you, He Yuzhu, treat me as a brother. From now on, we two are good brothers. How about we become sworn brothers tonight, and the third uncle will be our witness."
