Siheyuan: Superb comprehension? All skills are perfect

Chapter 201 New Opportunities Are Coming Quietly

Firstly, it is because he still maintains a good image, and secondly because of the relationship between them as master and apprentice - first Jia Dongxu was his apprentice, and now Qin Huairu.

If we ignore the Jia family’s predicament, we will probably be badly regarded by our neighbors.

As for why late-night assistance is a common phenomenon, it is sometimes difficult to do good deeds openly when neighbors are around.

It was already past midnight. After being awakened, Lin Xiangdong simply checked the system notification:

【IOU*1】

He didn't check the content immediately and continued to fall asleep, and Lou Xiao'e didn't think about it any more.

Early in the morning, Lin Xiangdong got up after daybreak and picked up the note in his hand to review it.

The debtor is Xu Damao, and the total amount of the loan is 80 cents.

"Only 80 cents?" He shook his head helplessly.

In fact, 80 cents is not a small sum of money in that era. After all, the price of a pound of pork is only about 60 cents.

Taking this into consideration, Lin Xiangdong was not in a hurry to destroy the IOU or go directly to Xu Damao to collect the debt.

On the contrary, he thought it would be more appropriate to wait until a few IOUs had accumulated before going to Xu Damao to collect the debt.

Afterwards, Lin Xiangdong went out to wash and started preparing breakfast.

Before Lin Xiangdong prepared breakfast, Lou Xiao'e got up.

That morning, Lin Xiangdong only cooked two bowls of noodles, each with a fried egg.

Scallions, pepper, lard and soy sauce are added to the noodles.

Added a little vinegar to the fried eggs.

This was not the first time that Lin Xiangdong cooked noodles for Lou Xiao'e. She remembered that when she tried the noodles he made for the first time, Lou Xiao'e praised them for their excellent taste.

While Lin Xiangdong and his wife were enjoying delicious noodles and fried eggs at home, the three aunts next door also prepared their own breakfast - sweet potato porridge and pickled radish.

"Lin Xiangdong and his wife are eating noodles and fried eggs at home!" the three aunts told her husband.

Yan Bugui was wiping his reading glasses, then picked up his chopsticks to eat.

In this era, every household cooks, and the neighbors can all know about it. If you pay a little attention, you can almost guess what kind of food is cooked.

Just like this time, the aunt knew that I had only cooked noodles and fried eggs.

Upon learning that Lin Xiangdong and his wife were enjoying fried eggs and noodles, not only the three aunts were envious, but even the three uncles and Yan Jiecheng and others were also full of longing.

However, it is impossible to envy others who have a wealthy family and can enjoy such delicious food. The most important thing is to cherish your own happy life.

By the way, the three uncles have also considered that if they could find a way to get an egg from Lin Xiangdong's family, that would be very good.

In addition, he was also thinking about "Han Ge's" lunch box. Since "Han Ge" no longer shared the leftovers he brought back from the factory with Qin Huairu, the three uncles felt that they could also fight for that delicious food.

……

After breakfast, Lin Xiangdong and his wife went to work.

The two of them came out of the alley together and soon went their separate ways: one headed towards the steel factory, while the other headed towards the department store.

When Lin Xiangdong arrived at the factory, his apprentice Nie Aimin immediately made him a cup of tea.

Although there was no need to go to the countryside to screen the movie that day, nor was it necessary to screen it in the factory, since Deputy Director Li had guests visiting, he arranged for Lin Xiangdong to screen the movie for the entertainment.

Recently, the topic that people are most concerned about is Qin Huairu's condition.

Since Qin Huairu gained 20 kilograms,

Even starving herself or working very hard could not help her lose weight, which made her feel completely frustrated.

She once again fell into her habit of completing her work perfunctorily.

Many people speculated that Qin Huairu must be ill, but tests by the factory health department confirmed that there was nothing wrong with her health.

Even though the medical equipment in the factory is not the most advanced in Beijing, and the medical team is not top-notch, it is not inferior either; in terms of physical health examinations alone, the gap is not too big compared to the best hospitals in Beijing.

Considering that Qin Huairu already has three children and is approaching thirty years old, it is not surprising that she has gained weight.

It is indeed a bit unbelievable that despite poor diet, frequent hunger and hard work, her figure gradually became plump. It is obvious that Qin Huairu's previous selfless attitude of hard work was actually to lose weight.

In the past, some male employees in the factory liked to gather around Qin Huairu, but now no one pays attention to her. This change has a great psychological impact on Qin Huairu.

Whenever lunchtime was approaching, Lin Xiangdong would walk to the cafeteria with his lunch box in hand. At this time, the secretary in Deputy Director Li's office would often come to him and tell him:

"Projectionist Lin, our Deputy Director Li wants you to come over for lunch."

Lin Xiangdong was somewhat surprised by the invitation; after all, although he knew that Li Huaide often entertained guests at noon, he did not expect that he would be invited. However, considering that the other party was Deputy Director Li and had specially sent someone to invite him, he could only respectfully obey.

Therefore, after putting the lunch box away properly, Lin Xiangdong went to the place where Deputy Director Li was. On the other hand, the secretary went to find "Lengtouqing" (nickname) and asked him to cook some delicacies for this small gathering.

The young man absentmindedly prepared several exquisite dishes.

The lunch meeting included Li Huaide, his two guests, and Lin Xiangdong, a total of four people sharing this delicious meal. The table was set with Maotai liquor and delicacies such as chicken and mushroom stew and braised pork, which was very tempting. Obviously, Huaide always advocated not to compromise on the enjoyment of food. Because he enjoyed the unique taste of the food cooked by the "green man", he was quite tolerant of him. The "green man" had received many invitations for cooperation from Huaide, but he always chose to play dumb and refused to cooperate.

After the meal, Lin Xiangdong played a movie for everyone again as usual. When he started the projection equipment and made the images appear on the screen, he used a more humorous and witty narrative method, which made everyone present, including Li Huaide, laugh. It lasted until the end of the whole movie, and everyone still felt that it was not enough.

One of Wilder's guests said with a smile: "Old friend of Li, your projectionist is really outstanding."

Another person agreed: "That technology is amazing!"

...

On the way home from school, He Yushui took a girl home with her, who was her good friend Zhang Shuqin.

Even though Zhang Shuqin was not considered a pretty beauty, she was not particularly ugly either - it was just that her teeth were a little protruding and slightly noticeable.

He Yushui occasionally invites classmates to her home. Today was no exception - Zhang Shuqin came to He's house, and the two got along very well. At the same time, having her as a reference made He Yushui seem even more charming.

At this time, Lin Xiangdong and Lou Xiaoe, who were returning home from get off work, had already returned home.

The couple didn't mind He Yushui's company. Moreover, they often saw Yan Jieguang and Liu Haifu bringing their friends to visit the courtyard!

"He Yushui is indeed good at socializing!" Lin Xiangdong thought to himself.

If it seems that her friends are rarely pretty... On the other hand, Yu Haitang, who is like a sister to her, is an existence that cannot be ignored. According to the plot, after graduating from university, Haitang was honored as "the flower of the factory". Moreover, her image charm is still good. Regardless of these situations, when He Yushui brought her female classmates back to the courtyard today, the "greenhorn" happened to be there.

"This is my eldest brother. His name is He Yuzhu. He works as a chef in the steel rolling mill." He Yushui introduced him to Zhang Shuqin.

Zhang Shuqin looked at He Yuzhu with a somewhat shy expression.

He Yushui and Sha Zhu both thought that she was shy.

However, when Zhang Shuqin and He Yushui were alone together, the girl began to ask He Yushui about Sha Zhu.

After listening for a while, He Yushui felt something was wrong.

"Could it be that you have developed feelings for my brother?" He Yushui looked at Zhang Shuqin in surprise.

Zhang Shuqin's face flushed and she looked shy.

At this moment, He Yushui felt as if he had seen a miraculous sight as the sun rising in the west - someone actually had feelings for his elder brother.

But she felt that it would not be a bad thing if Zhang Shuqin really dated her eldest brother.

Although he thought Zhang Shuqin was not stunning, she had a straightforward personality and came from a good family.

When He Yushui jokingly mentioned introducing Zhang Shuqin to her eldest brother, she did not refuse.

It is obvious that Zhang Shuqin did have a liking for Sha Zhu.

Even though it was the first time she met Sha Zhu, in that era, once a man and a woman admired each other, they could often decide on their lifelong affairs.

Even holding hands on the street seems very rare, as you can imagine.

He Yushui also invited Zhang Shuqin to have dinner with him in the evening, and then accompanied her out of the alley.

……

After seeing his friend off and going home, He Yushui saw his brother standing in front of the gate, and Yi Zhonghai was also there.

She saw Yi Zhonghai chatting with his brother.

"Brother, what do you think of my good friend Zhang Shuqin?" He Yushui walked closer and asked the question.

"Do you need to consult me?" Sha Zhu replied with a smile.

"My good friend seems to have a crush on you. Why don't you try to develop a relationship with him?" He Yushui suggested with a smile.

These words surprised Sha Zhu, and Yi Zhonghai also looked stunned.

"I didn't expect that the little girl Yu Shui actually wanted to introduce her friend to Sha Zhu." Yi Zhonghai frowned and thought silently in his heart.

Because he didn't know Zhang Shuqin well enough, Yi Zhonghai was not happy to see any progress between Sha Zhu and Zhang Shuqin.

"Stop, stop talking about this. The girl you mentioned has protruding teeth, just like Bajie's second aunt. If I followed her, I might wake up in fright at night and have nightmares." Sha Zhu responded with an extremely exaggerated statement.

In his eyes, he thought Zhang Shuqin and Liu Yuhua were quite similar.

Yi Zhonghai breathed a sigh of relief, fortunately Sha Zhu didn't like Zhang Shuqin.

He Yushui was a little unhappy about this, after all, Zhang Shuqin was her close friend and classmate.

So she ignored Sha Zhu out of spite.

"Boy, your uncle will help you find a suitable partner someday." Yi Zhonghai turned to Sha Zhu and made a promise.
