Siheyuan: 55 years, starting from a buyer

Grandmother Jia has always collected salary for her son, but now Jia Haoyun handed the first month's salary to his mother personally. To her, this was a sign of her son's attitude.

Grandmother Jia glanced at Qin Huairu, but saw that her future daughter-in-law did not show any abnormality, which made her even more delighted.

Grandmother Jia didn't know that Jia Haoyun gave all the bonus and subsidy coupons to Qin Huairu, and the two of them never revealed a word about it.

After all, whether the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law can live in harmony depends largely on whether Jia Haoyun can mediate wisely.

The next day, before Jia Haoyun went to work, Grandmother Jia secretly gave him five copper coins and some food coupons.

She knew that her son had money, but his work expenses were very high and he still needed support. Jia Haoyun naturally would not refuse. He took the money and took Qin Huairu to work. The first stop was to send Qin Huairu to the hospital.

During work, Jia Haoyun once again came to the logistics department because the canteen and fine grain coupons he had exchanged last time were not enough.

Usually, the exchange of tickets is done by each department after statistics are collected and exchanged uniformly, and then distributed to individuals after the exchange is completed.

But coincidentally, when Qin Huairu was looking for him two days ago, the statistics were taken, so he missed it.

Although his senior brothers and sisters wanted to give him some, Jia Haoyun insisted on his own opinion. If he liked to eat, he would have to exchange a lot of fine grain coupons, so he refused without hesitation.

He planned to exchange it directly with the elderly person in logistics.

He was also glad that he did not participate in the statistics in the transport team, because he only ate fine grains. If others knew that he had exchanged so many fine grain coupons, it would probably cause an uproar.

People may wonder how Jia Haoyun, who only eats fine grains on a daily basis, could have not attracted other people's attention.

Little did people know that there were tens of thousands of employees in the factory, and unless one paid special attention, Jia Haoyun's lunch choice might not attract attention.

Senior Sister Jia was often on business trips and did not often dine with him; although Senior Brother Xiang often accompanied him, he was also well off and had long been accustomed to Jia Haoyun's generosity.

More importantly, Senior Brother Xiang’s circle of friends is quite extensive, and he would not only eat one meal with Jia Haoyun every day.

At noon, Jia Haoyun would sometimes take a break from the restaurant and occasionally bring food back to the transport team, in order to get a few more steamed buns and prepare for future food reserves.

The main reason is to store some cooked food in case of unexpected events in the future. Otherwise, even if you use rice or flour to cook, the aroma will inevitably attract the attention of others.

In addition, storing more cooked food will make it convenient to quickly access it if there is any business in the future.

In this way, Jia Haoyun can also exchange the food coupons directly for food, avoiding the tediousness of gradual purchase.

Compared with the abundant white flour in his space supermarket, he certainly didn't know how to make steamed buns.

The actual situation is that he used the space supermarket to increase his food intake.

After all, this is how Jia Haoyun got through last month.

When he arrived at the logistics department, the old man still maintained his usual attitude, reading the newspaper and drinking tea, and still seemed not to communicate much with others.

Jia Haoyun still handed over the cigarette first and then lit it.

To his surprise, the old man recognized him.

Then he took out two apples from his pocket, handed them to the old man, and explained his purpose.

He now had a lot of tickets, so he wanted to exchange more, using the excuse that he was exchanging tickets for those members of the transport team who missed the statistics.

This reason makes sense, because the transport team is away all year round, and it is normal to miss the opportunity to exchange tickets, so someone will come alone to exchange tickets with him.

The old man was smoking a cigarette and looked at the apple handed to him by Jia Haoyun, with a smile on his face.

The apples that Jia Haoyun delivered last week were in two trucks, but he only got less than two kilograms, which was indeed not much.

But considering that the workshop director only got three kilograms, I felt balanced.

His little grandson has been asking for apples these days. He didn't expect that Jia Haoyun was also on the last transport team's business trip. It seems that he is doing quite well in the transport team.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Jia Haoyun exchanged more fine grains and vegetable coupons, and also symbolically exchanged some coarse grains.

Every time he went to the canteen to get food, if he was going to take it back to eat, he would buy some more, including those two-grain flour pancakes.

This was to avoid attracting attention and making people think that he was getting food for others; on the other hand, the Space Supermarket also had to prepare some two-grain flour cakes, and sometimes when taking out food, it was impossible for all of it to be made of white flour.

The old man thought he had bought enough for several people, so he returned it to him directly. He was even faster than the last time he saw him, probably because it was because he gave him the apple.

Although there is no direct transaction now, it is still a good thing for Jia Haoyun.

In the next few days, the relationship between Jia Haoyun and Qin Huairu became more and more harmonious, and the tacit understanding between them gradually deepened, as if they had entered the legendary "passionate love" period.

This passage describes how modern romantic relationships are perceived by some to be more focused on material and sensual experiences than on deep spiritual connections compared to the past.

The protagonist Jia Haoyun has a different experience in emotional communication compared to people in the past, which may be due to the influence of modern fast-paced life and technology.

At the same time, the protagonist Jia Haoyun's life situation is as follows:

1. **Relationship between family members**: Jia Haoyun’s grandmother is in good health and Jia Haoyun is arranging his marriage and has communicated with his family.

2. **Wedding preparation**: He plans to discuss the specific date of the wedding with his master Wang Jianqiang and his master's father Wang Dongsheng, because they, as representatives of the elders, are the most suitable people for him.

3. **Gift preparation**: Jia Haoyun prepared traditional gifts to show respect and gratitude to the elders.

4. **Wang Dongsheng’s reaction**: Wang Dongsheng was very happy about Jia Haoyun’s wedding plan and promised to come as soon as possible to celebrate.

5. **Working environment**: Jia Haoyun’s senior sister has become very busy recently because the factory where she works is working overtime to complete the steelmaking task.

6. **Historical background**: The whole society is full of positive slogans and propaganda, and people seem to be full of confidence in improving production efficiency, but this state may be an excessive optimism in Jia Haoyun's view.

7. **Jia Haoyun’s worries**: Although he had heard similar stories in his previous life, his personal experience in this era made him feel that things might be much more serious than he had imagined.

8. **Jia Haoyun’s action plan**: He plans to go to the commune with his second uncle to provide guidance soon, but he is not sure what he will encounter and has doubts and worries in his heart.

The whole text shows a young man who is preparing for his wedding from Jia Haoyun's perspective, while also reflecting certain characteristics and problems of the social environment around him.

Through his experiences, the author shows the differences between the past and the present in terms of interpersonal communication and social development.

Fortunately, his current duties as an apprentice in the transport team do not require him to take care of many major matters. Even the changes in the surrounding areas have not greatly changed his sense of participation.

Fortunately, he had made a lot of material preparations in advance, but considering the rapidly changing current situation, perhaps he should stockpile more materials.

In Xiaowang Village, he estimated that he could still make an exchange of goods. He should also pay more attention to Huang Shu and convert the funds in his hands into physical objects or various bills as much as possible.

Looking at the current situation, it might be more serious than what he had heard in his previous life.

After a day's work, Jia Haoyun went home to visit his grandmother, then packed his things and was about to leave the hospital the next day.

At noon, he and Qin Huairu agreed on the wedding date and prepared to return to the village.

These days, the second aunt in the village passed a message to the second uncle through others, hoping that he would return as soon as possible. The situation in the village is very chaotic now, and all kinds of rumors are spreading. People are excited as if they were injected with chicken blood, and hope that he can take charge of the village affairs immediately.

Although the message was not the original words, Jia Haoyun roughly understood the meaning after listening for a while. It seems that the impact of various "satellites" recently is really significant!

Fortunately, most people in the village have the surname Qin, and the few outsiders probably won't cause much trouble. However, my second uncle still decided to return immediately after confirming the wedding date at noon tomorrow.

When Jia Haoyun brought Qin Huairu home, they found an unusually sad atmosphere permeating the yard as soon as they entered it.

Even the children in the front yard were no longer laughing and playing as usual, and no one was running around.

The people they met greeted him and Qin Huairu weakly, and both of them felt that something had happened.

Although Qin Huairu had only been there for a few days, she could sense that the atmosphere was somewhat unusual.

As soon as she entered the house, Grandmother Jia told Jia Haoyun everything that had happened.

It turns out that they also want to build a blast furnace to produce steel on their street.

Initially, the steel mill workers on the street were not required to participate in this activity, but now it is being carried out in various places across the country, and their streets cannot be left behind. Everyone must participate, whether they are at work or not.

Director Wang is personally in charge of the organization, and I heard that a military order has already been issued.

There is nothing wrong with participating in the activity itself, but every family needs to hand over the scrap metal in their home, at least 30 kilograms per family, not a single bit less.

In order to complete this task, Director Wang and fully armed militiamen will visit every household.

Grandmother Jia felt very troubled by this; she didn't know where to get the thirty kilograms of scrap iron.

At this time, Jia Haoyun said, "Mom, leave it to me!"

Jia Haoyun secretly rejoiced that he had been prepared and had stored a large pile of scrap metal, which would surely last for a while.

"Hao Yun, don't be silly! Don't touch anything in the factory. I heard that the steel mill here is under very strict control now, and there are militiamen everywhere watching the entrance.

"

Grandmother Jia mistakenly thought that Jia Haoyun was planning to go to the steel rolling mill to look for scrap metal, her face changed and she quickly tried to dissuade him.

Jia Haoyun did not expect the situation to be so serious. In the evening, he greeted the doorman warmly, but he did not see the militia equipment in place for patrol.

He first comforted Lady Jia and promised that he would not go to the factory. It was a friend of his who had information and collected a pile of scrap metal.

Jia Haoyun said he would go to discuss with this friend to see if he could allocate some of the money.
