Siheyuan: A Family of Loyal and Brave People

Everything has its pros and cons and nothing can be perfect, and the same is true for reform.

The system of public-private partnership is more in line with the country's current development, but it is impossible to take all aspects into account.

It is normal for some enterprises and units to encounter problems after reform.

However, it is impossible to stop reform just because of some minor problems.

So Cheng Hao could only try his best to comfort He Yuzhu.

"I understand the reason, but it's really hard to bear."

He Yuzhu shook his head, helplessness written all over his face.

After the battlefield experience, He Yuzhu has become much more mature and stable, and has become more tactful in dealing with people. However, he can give in in other areas, but has become more stubborn in cooking.

The quality of Fengzeyuan's dishes declined, and He Yuzhu felt that he had damaged the restaurant's reputation and was letting his employer down, so he considered resigning.

"So what are your plans after you resign from Fengze Garden?

It’s hard to find a job in the city nowadays.

Many young people who couldn't find jobs were sent to remote areas to support construction.

But I guess you don't have to worry, your wife has a job anyway, right?"

Cheng Hao did not force He Yuzhu to stay, but instead seriously helped him find a way out.

"Brother Hao, stop joking.

How can I, a grown man, have the nerve to be a gigolo?"

He Yuzhu immediately waved his hand to refuse. He could not afford to lose face as he was supported by his wife.

"Brother Hao, I just want to ask you if there are any companies nearby that are hiring.

If so, I will resign from Fengzeyuan and find another job.

If not, then give up the thought of resigning and continue to spend time in Fengze Garden. "

People have to bow their heads under the roof.

If he had not been married and had no wife and children, He Yuzhu would have definitely resigned immediately.

But now that the child is about to be born, for the sake of his family, He Yuzhu has to endure it no matter how painful it is.

To be honest, He Yuzhu was just unhappy, and there was no big problem at work. With his resume, as long as he did not resign voluntarily, the new manager of Fengze Garden would not be able to force him out.

“It’s a pity that there are no vacancies in the street office cafeteria.

Otherwise, I will definitely keep you here."

Cheng Hao is very familiar with He Yuzhu's cooking skills. If he stays to work in the street office, the food in the unit will be greatly improved.

"The nearby Red Star Steel Rolling Mill is going to expand soon, and the canteen is also looking for chefs.

If you are willing to work in the steel mill, I can help arrange it."

Cheng Hao thought for a moment and soon came to a conclusion.

He Yuzhu had served in the army, so he had no problem making big-pot meals as long as he was willing.

“Okay, I haven’t made a big pot meal for a while.

It's time to hone your skills.

If there is a war in the future, maybe I can go to the front line and cook for them."

He Yuzhu agreed immediately.

He Yuzhu is very satisfied that working in a steel rolling mill is closer to home and more convenient for taking care of his family.

"You have to think it over carefully. Do you really want to leave Fengze Garden and work in the canteen of the steel mill?

Once you take this step, there’s no going back.”

Cheng Hao finally gave He Yuzhu a reminder.

Compared to working in the canteen and eating from a big pot, working in Fengzeyuan is undoubtedly more respectable.

"I've made up my mind. If there's anywhere else to go, I don't want to stay in Fengze Garden.

Brother Hao, thank you for your help. "

He Yuzhu nodded and said solemnly.

"No problem, go back and wait for my news.

Wait until I have arranged everything for you before you resign."

The brothers had made up their minds, and Cheng Hao had no reason to stop them. He could only support them with all his strength.

And working in a steel mill canteen may not necessarily be a bad thing.

With the changes in the social environment, large restaurants like Fengzeyuan will be subject to more restrictions in the next ten years or so, and He Yuzhu will only become more and more uncomfortable.

Get out of it early and change the environment. The psychological pressure will be less and you will not be easily affected.

……

"Old Yan, Director Cheng said that we should split the money for the new locks in half.

This is my share, and you can figure out the rest yourself."

Liu Haizhong took out a few bills from his pocket and handed them to Yan Bugui.

Paying half of the money is already the most he can do, and Liu Haizhong will not pay another penny from now on.

Yan Bugui hurriedly took the money, counted it carefully twice, confirmed it was correct and carefully put it back in his pocket, then said: "Lao Liu, you know the situation of my family. I spent all my savings to treat those four little bastards.

For the sake of our long-standing neighborliness, won't you help me shoulder more of the responsibility?"

Yan Bugui was still not satisfied and wanted to get more benefits from Liu Haizhong.

Liu Haizhong rolled his eyes at Yan Bugui and snorted coldly.

"You have received the money, and you still have the nerve to say such things.

You are ready to buy a bicycle. I don’t believe you don’t have money.”

Yan Bugui's lies may be able to fool others, but they don't work on Liu Haizhong.

We have been neighbors in the same courtyard for more than ten years. We see each other every day and know each other well.

Yan Bugui's salary as a primary school teacher may not seem high, but with various subsidies, his income is much higher than that of ordinary people. In addition, he is a stingy and frugal person, so his savings are definitely not small.

It is impossible to spend all your savings just because your child stays in the hospital for a few days.

"Who told you I wanted to buy a bicycle? You didn't even say that. Don't talk nonsense."

Yan Bugui's hair stood on end like a cat whose tail was stepped on.

“Your four children said so.

They said that you cut their food expenses in order to save money to buy bicycles, which caused them to often go hungry.

Liu Haizhong mercilessly revealed Yan Bugui's scars.

"This time, all four of Yan Jiecheng fell ill. You have yourself to blame.

If children are hungry all day long, how can they be healthy?

I have a weak constitution, so of course I can’t stand the wind. I get sick as soon as I catch a cold, and I get very sick.”

The three-foot-thick ice did not form overnight. The tragedy of Yan Jiecheng and his several children was caused by Yan Bugui's long-term stinginess.

"Nonsense, how can you blame me?

I didn’t eat much when I was a kid, but I’m still fine now.”

Yan Bugui shouted, but turned his head away quietly, not daring to look Liu Haizhong in the face out of guilt.

"It's up to you to be stubborn.

Well, my child is fine anyway.

I don’t know whose family they are from, but all four children are in the hospital.”

Liu Haizhong couldn't help laughing as he spoke.

The two Liu Guangtian brothers who were following behind did not relax because their father was in a good mood. Instead, they lowered their heads even lower and said nothing, as if they were afraid of being noticed by their father.

There's no way around it. Liu Haizhong likes to beat children. He beats them to vent his anger when he's in a good mood, and he also beats them to cheer himself up when he's in a bad mood.

Only by avoiding their father's attention could Liu Guangtian and his companions survive.

"You...what are you so proud of...

At least I am a cultured person and I won’t beat my children casually.

Unlike you, who beat the children so much that they run away in panic all day long, disturbing the peace of the yard.

Humph, if you keep fighting like this, something bad will happen sooner or later."

Yan Bugui, feeling humiliated, retorted angrily.

Liu Haizhong turned his head and glanced at the two children following behind him.

Feeling their father's stern gaze, the Liu Guangtian brothers shuddered and almost stopped in fear.

What you fear will come true. Liu Haizhong finally noticed them.

"What could possibly happen? Could the two of them rebel?"

Seeing his two sons looking terrified, Liu Haizhong laughed even louder.
