The Beginning of Siheyuan: The Pig Killer of Qinjia Village

When Xu Damao heard this, he and Yan Jiecheng looked at each other and saw each other's surprise and envy.

Not only does she have to be good-looking and have a good figure, she also graduated from high school and worked as a team leader in the logistics department of a textile factory. She also has an only child and her father is a section chief.

From now on, he will definitely help wholeheartedly, and all the property will belong to Liu Guangqi.

Such a good thing happened to Liu Guangqi?

Why does Liu Guangqi always get all the good things one after another?

No, this kid was admitted to a technical secondary school and made me suffer for three years.

He worked so hard at the factory that he ruined all the positions that could have been awarded to him.

I have been lucky recently. Not only was I praised for getting the advanced degree ahead of schedule, but I was also promoted.

If he marries a wife like this again, and things continue like this, the Liu family will be superior to the Xu family in the hospital. I guess I will be suppressed for the rest of my life, after all, I have to get the advanced title this year as a deputy section chief, and there is no administrative level.

No, we can’t let Liu Guangqi get away with it that easily.

After Wang the matchmaker talked for a while and left.

Xu Damao pondered for a moment, then pulled Yan Jiecheng to the alley next to him and whispered, "Jiecheng, since Liu Guangqi got promoted, he has been sending pig intestines to our workstations, urging us to work. He usually acts like a big shot and ignores us.

The point is, if he hadn't taken a place in our workshop last year, you would have been promoted to an advanced worker. We all grew up in the same dean, and he deliberately prevented you from becoming a regular worker, and deliberately wanted to suppress us. Since he is unkind, don't blame us for being unjust, anyway, we are old enough to find a wife..."

He also had another little idea. With such a good girl, they were just going on a blind date and it wasn't like they were going to get married. He still had a chance. What if it worked out?

Yan Jiecheng heard this and asked directly, "Da Mao, just tell me what to do?"

This is indeed the case. He did not get the advanced award last year, although it was because he was an old employee. The key point is that the number of places in a workshop is limited. If it weren't for Liu Guangqi, he would have been able to get the advanced award and become a regular employee.

He knew Xu Damao was not just venting his anger for him, but also for his own sake. But he had long been dissatisfied with Liu Guangqi. His father Yan Bugui often compared him with Liu Guangqi and beat and scolded him. He had been tortured by the comparison with Liu Guangqi for so many years, and he had been holding back a fire in his heart for a long time.

Xu Damao tilted his head and thought about it, then he came up with a solution. "Jie Cheng, the strongest fortress is always breached from the inside. Liu Guangqi doesn't have a bad reputation to the outside world, but for his two brothers Liu Guangtian and Liu Guangfu... let's start with his family situation and his father. You ask Jiefang to find Liu Guangtian and Liu Guangfu to act out a play with us..."

After hearing this, Yan Jiecheng nodded repeatedly, and the two of them hit it off immediately.

Afterwards, Yan Jiecheng went home to find his younger brother Yan Jiefang and asked him to go to the backyard to call out the two brothers Liu Guangtian and Liu Guangfu.

But at that time, Liu Guangtian and his brother were being drafted by their mother, the second aunt, so they had no chance to go out.

Xu Damao and Yan Jiecheng squatted at the wall of the alley and waited for more than an hour before the Liu Guangtian brothers arrived.

Xu Damao told them the plan. The two brothers were a little hesitant at first. After all, they had lived under the tyranny of their father Liu Haizhong for too long and were afraid of being beaten!

But Xu Damao lied: "I have no grudge against Liu Guangqi. I am doing this because you two brothers feel sorry for me. Think about it. After your brother Liu Guangqi gets married, how will you live in the two rooms in your house? Should you be kicked out? Or should Liu Guangqi and his wife be kicked out?"

Think about it again, Song Qian's family is so well off, your father would definitely spend all his family fortune to help your eldest brother. You, as sons too, will be left with nothing in the end.

Liu Guangqi is not married, so you two brothers can only watch as he eats fried eggs. If your brother's family has another child, your parents will definitely treat him like a baby, just like a grandparent...

You can imagine your future life at home, where anyone can boss you around, and you'll be no better than a slave. I guess you won't even be able to find a wife in the end...

In addition, Yan Jiecheng echoed and said that he would take them out to a restaurant at noon, so Liu Guangtian agreed without hesitation.

……

Around ten o'clock in the morning,

Chang Wei, carrying a cured chicken, pork, beef and several canned foods, followed by his two older sons, came to the door of He Yuzhu's house in the middle courtyard and shouted.

"Zhu Zi, where are the people?"

The subdistrict office has been very busy since the beginning of this year. The four pests eradication included environmental sanitation, dredging rivers and building new public toilets, etc. Then came the Great Leap Forward in steelmaking. Qin Huairu, Tianzao and Liu Qing had no rest this week and no time to go home at noon.

So he brought his son to He Yuzhu's place to use the cook, as it would be a waste to not use the ready-made cook.

Hearing Chang Wei's shout, He Yuzhu hurriedly ran out of the house.

"Brother Wei, here we come!"

Chang Wei handed the food in his hand to He Yuzhu. "Your sister-in-law and her family are at work today and won't be back at noon. It's too hot and I'm too lazy to move, so I'll eat here at noon and use your cooking."

"Okay! Brother Wei, you take a rest, leave it to me." He Yuzhu took the ingredients and saw the two little guys, and immediately said happily. "Hey! Tianqiao Tianyou, come on, come on, go inside, Uncle Zhuzi will get you some delicious food.

Uncle Zhuzi's cooking skills will ensure that our two little adults will be satisfied and eat an extra bowl of rice."

The two little guys followed him into the house, and the second oldest Chang Tianyou said, "Uncle Zhuzi, you have to make more rice for lunch. With your cooking skills, we can have more than one more bowl of rice."

"Okay, I'll make sure I make enough for you." He Yuzhu laughed and took the two kids into the house. After putting down the ingredients, he took out all the melon seeds, peanuts, canned fruits, etc. that he had stored in the bottom of the box. "Eat, eat as much as you want, don't be polite to Uncle Zhuzi."

I sighed in my heart, these two kids are so smart. Tianyou, this little clever guy is also interesting. He even knows to praise his craftsmanship, and his words are pleasant to listen to.

The two little guys Tianjiao and Tianyou were not very interested in the snacks. After saying thank you, they just grabbed a handful of melon seeds and squeezed a few candies, then moved their small stools to the porch at the door and sat down next to Chang Wei to enjoy the cool air.

Chang Wei took out a mini chess set from his pocket and played it with his two sons.

He Yuzhu took the food to the sink in the yard to wash it.

Chang Wei chatted casually. "Zhu Zi, is there anything going on in the courtyard today?"

When he arrived, he saw a few middle-aged women whispering to each other in the front yard. When he sat down, because of his keen senses, he felt that the whole yard was noisy.

He Yuzhu said ambiguously. "Brother Wei, I couldn't hear clearly in the room, it seems that Liu Guangqi is having a blind date in the backyard, and everyone is talking about it!"

Chang Wei listened carefully and it was true, teasing. "Zhu Zi, Liu Guangqi is younger than you, right? He is in a hurry to find a wife, why aren't you in a hurry?"

He Yuzhu chuckled. "Isn't it because I haven't met the right one?"

Chang Wei said with a smile. "Is this true? I heard that Zhao Tiantian always goes to your window to get food, and you are quite considerate of her."

He also didn't expect that these two people got to know each other through fighting, and that they had been getting along well as friends in the past two years. Chen Xueru told him this when they were chatting before.

This kid has a jingle when serving food: a tossed spoon is unfamiliar, a flat spoon is the normal portion, and a full spoon is a favor.

However, the stirrer was never used by anyone in the cannery, including Xu Damao. Because the factory had a rating scale, divided into three levels: good, medium and poor. A mark on the skill of serving food would affect the year-end advanced evaluation. Those who gave poor reviews had to leave their names, which would be convenient for the questionnaire later.

"Brother Wei, we are good friends. She has a big appetite and she can't get enough food by going to other people's place. If you don't believe me, go ask her." He Yuzhu blushed and explained quickly. He probably didn't even believe what he said.

"Uncle Zhuzi, people will look to the right when they lie. The fact that you suddenly blushed proves that you are lying." Chang Tianqiao looked up at some point and said seriously to Sha Zhu.

"You little clever ghost, you know a lot." He Yuzhu was embarrassed and made faces at Chang Tianjiao.

"Haha..." Chang Wei couldn't help laughing.

……

At the same time, in Xiaozhang Village, Jia Zhang’s family.

While others were at work, she was discussing life with her old lover and cousin.

The old house she lived in was quite remote, in the corner of the last row of houses in the village. Over the years, it was convenient for her old lover and cousin from the next village to come and comfort her.

Suddenly, a voice came out. "Mom!"

The two of them were so frightened that they immediately stopped and put on their clothes. Jia Zhang responded with a "Hey!"

Wang Dafu, a cousin who looked a bit like Jia Dongxu, muttered, "Dongxu, he usually comes at the end of the month, why did he come today?"

Jia Zhang pulled up her trousers, buttoned them, and walked out in an orderly manner. "It should be his uncle who sent a message. I don't want to work in the fields. You can tell him later that you are here to persuade him."

She knew what was going on. The village had notified her to go to the fields to work. Her elder brother Zhang Maochang had come many times, but she was unwilling to go. She had taken advantage of the big pot meals for two days a few days ago, but was not allowed to eat. It was fine if she was not allowed to eat, anyway, she had just received food last month and had something to eat. She was a pensioner, so she would not go to the fields to work.

Jia Dongxu pushed his bicycle into the yard, and Jia Zhang also buttoned up her clothes and came out.

"Dongxu, why are you here today? Isn't there still some days until the end of the month?"

Jia Dongxu answered casually, "My uncle sent a message."

After saying that, Wang Dafu put on his clothes and walked out of the house. He was not panicked at all, and he looked like a veteran. "Dongxu is here, look at your mother, she won't listen to any advice, ah!"

Jia Dongxu quickly took out a cigarette and handed it to him. "My cousin is here!"

He was very familiar with his cousin Wang Dafu. When he was a child, his mother would go to his cousin's house every time she returned to the village. She was very kind to him and never spared any good food or fun. Unfortunately, his cousin's mother passed away early. His cousin was two years older than him. They played well together, but they married far away and he never saw her after he grew up.

I didn't see him much when I started working, but in the past two years, whenever he came back to the village, my mother would ask him to go to his cousin's house and take a look...

Wang Dafu took a look at the cigarette and said cheerfully, "Hey! Daqianmen, Dongxu, you are doing well in the city."

Jia Dongxu smiled and said modestly, "Uncle, this is just for show. I use it to build relationships with the leaders at the factory. I don't usually smoke this."

After chatting for a few words, Wang Dafu left, making the excuse that he had to go back to work.

Jia Dongxu talked about serious matters with Jia Zhang.

"Mom, my uncle said that now the land is collectively owned, and there will be no food to be taken from us in the future. What are your plans?"

Jia Zhang looked at her son expectantly. "Dongxu, Mom wants to go back to the city, is that ok?"

She had had enough of staying in the village. Xiaozhang Village was a big village, but it was not rich. They ate coarse grains and had very little meat. They had to rely on her son to bring some lard at the end of each month. She was also told that she was not allowed to raise the chickens she raised. She could not even get eggs in the village anymore, and her life would be even harder.

As for being in a relationship, during all those years in the city, we did it in secret.

Jia Dongxu discussed the matter with Zhang Xiaoyu at home. The village said that they would not keep idle people and would not let his mother set a bad example. It was impossible to expect his mother to work in the fields to earn work points.

I confirmed and discussed this with my uncle Zhang Maochang before coming here, and finally we had no choice but to take him back.

He knew the result in his heart, so he waited for his mother to speak, pretending to think deeply before answering with great embarrassment. "Mom, I haven't seen you get sick in these years, so it's not impossible to go back. But I'm the only one in our family who has a ration, and most of the food I eat requires extra food coupons. Now add your ration, and I think my salary will be enough..."

Jia Zhang was not stupid. She just said that she would have a heavy burden if she went back. She quickly replied, "Dongxu, keep one dollar of the money Mom earned from making shoes, and use the rest to support the family. You don't have to buy medicine. Mom is really not sick."

Jia Dongxu nodded immediately, looking like a filial son. "Mom, I'm not doing this for your money, I'm just afraid of putting you in a difficult position.

It just so happened that the Qian family next door moved out, leaving a room vacant. I heard that it was open for purchase recently. Seeing Banggeng and Xiaodang growing up day by day, the only room in the house was too crowded.

Mom, let's work together as a family to buy this house. Then you will have a place to live and our house will be spacious."

His meaning was very clear. In addition to the ring, you should have 300-400 yuan in your pocket to buy a house, right? Otherwise, there will be no room at home.

Jia Zhang's heart trembled. This sounded better than singing. That money was her financial support.

But even if her son continued to send food, life would definitely be hard. Moreover, she couldn't spend her money now, and she didn't dare to go to the black market. And she heard rumors that the brigade was going to drive her away...

After thinking it over again and again, Jia Zhang walked to the bedside with a worried heart and took out the small wooden box from the pillow. She opened it in front of Jia Dongxu and took out the three hundred yuan inside.

"Dongxu, this is all I have. This gold ring is a keepsake your dad left for me, so I won't give it to you. You should pass it on to my wife Banggeng later."

Her honesty was a token of her loyalty and a covert move. Fortunately, she didn't put all her eggs in one basket, and she had more than a hundred yuan hidden somewhere else, otherwise she would have been caught in one fell swoop this time.

Jia Dongxu packed the money. Although it felt like it was a little less than what he had budgeted, it was still almost enough. It should be for his mother to buy food.

He immediately put on the look of a filial son. "Mom, let's pack up and go home."
