Siheyuan: I earned foreign exchange in the heyday

After Nan Yi took a few puffs of cigarette and calmed down, Chen Changan continued, "Then there's the second uncle Liu Haizhong in the backyard, who is said to have not graduated from elementary school.

The biggest wish is to be a leader. This is easy to say, who doesn’t want to be a leader?

But this person has a violent tendency and likes to beat children."

Nan Yi was puzzled. In this era, children who disobeyed were beaten directly. Beating children was a very common thing for parents in this era.

Chen Changan has also been here for a few years, so he must understand Nan Yi's thoughts. He then said, "Second uncle Liu Haizhong has three children. The eldest is deeply loved by the second uncle and will not be beaten no matter what he does wrong. The second and third children are the ones who are beaten.

And they were his own children, so they were so ruthless in beating them. It was common for their heads to be opened.”

This is still normal, that is, beating the child a little harder and showing some favoritism to the child. As long as you don't hit other people's children, it's fine.

Then Chen Changan continued, "Then there is the third uncle in the front yard, Yan Fugui."

Nan Yi interrupted and said, "Third Uncle, no one introduced themselves as Third Uncle during the meeting?"

Chen Changan smiled and said, "Uncle Yan Fugui is an elementary school teacher, nicknamed Yan Laokou.

I don't know the exact salary, but it's no problem to support their whole family.

But the uncle said that he only had a salary of twenty or so yuan, and he had to stand guard at the gate of the yard every day, and would take some money from anyone who passed by.

Nan Yi was stunned. In comparison, this old man was quite disgusting.

Chen Changan continued, "The second son of the Yan family helped me with a few things before. At that time, I was the director of the honeycomb coal processing factory, so I found him a temporary job.

Later they said they wanted their eldest son to come to work as well. I thought it wouldn’t matter if he was just a temporary worker.

As a result, within a few months, he stole a lot of coal from the factory, and his eldest son was also sent to labor reform.

Yan Fugui, who considers himself a scholar, felt ashamed and has been behaving himself lately. "

Nan Yi nodded, "It's fine to be a teacher. I'm just afraid that he will stand at the gate every day. He will look at and taste everything you bring home. Who can stand this?"

Then I heard Chen Changan continue to say, "One is the Jia family in the middle courtyard. Jia Dongxu is the person chosen by the eldest uncle Yi Zhonghai to take care of his old age. So for some things, there will be some bias when dealing with the eldest uncle in the courtyard.

Add to that Jia Zhangshi and the country shrew, and most people really can’t bring themselves to quarrel with her.”

Nan Yi had already regretted it at this time, but unfortunately, when he was allocated this house, it was Secretary Liu Binghui who specifically called Director Wang of the Street Office to arrange it.

After all, they are both working. Nan Yi is the royal chef and Liang Ladi is also a welder talent that the motorcycle factory is in urgent need of.

The cigarette was finished, and the conversation between Chen Changan and Nan Yi was about to end. Suddenly, he remembered something and said, "Oh, by the way, there is an old lady in the backyard.

You are also a fool. You treat Sha Zhu, who wants to compete with you in cooking skills in the meeting today, as your own grandson. If you bully Sha Zhu, the old lady will rely on her age to break the glass in your house and block you from leaving the house. "

Watching Chen Changan returning home, Nan Yi was really confused. Without some patience or ability, he really couldn't live in this yard.

After returning home, he repeated Chen Changan's words to Liang Ladi, but Liang Ladi was not afraid.

After all, we all came from the old society. What kind of people had we not seen in the countryside before?

In the city, people at least have some dignity and face when eating out. If you go to the countryside, you will see that people eat out openly.

Isn't it just that he relies on his position in the factory to maintain his reputation, so he throws a tantrum, cries and makes a fuss?

If she really loses face, who wouldn't be like that? If she doesn't even have this little trick, how can Liang Ladi, with four children, find a first-time bride like Nan Yi?

In the evening, Chen Changan brought his three sisters to Nan Yi's house. Looking at the table full of dishes, Chen Changan said quickly, "It's a waste of money. It's so sumptuous. How are we going to live in the future?"

Nan Yi didn't understand what Chen Changan meant, and thought that Chen Changan was not a good cook and that he would not be able to eat good food in the future. He said directly, "Director, I heard from our secretary that the factory might have some special cooking in the future? Are you still worried that you won't be able to eat good food?"

As soon as these words came out, Liang Ladi rolled her eyes at Nan Yi and said, "Director Chen, don't listen to Nan Yi's nonsense. He is not good at talking. If you want to eat something, just tell me and Nan Yi will make it for you."

Nan Yi nodded and said, "Yes, yes, tell me what you want to eat."

Chen Changan smiled and didn't care, saying, "I don't have that much to say, I just feel a little emotional. Okay, there are so many delicious foods, let's eat quickly."

I don’t know if it’s because I haven’t eaten braised pork for a long time, or if Nan Yi Royal Chef’s cooking skills are really amazing.

The main reason is that Chen Changan doesn’t have so much time to stew meat, and he doesn’t want to spoil his appetite now, otherwise he will feel uncomfortable when he has nothing to eat later.

The first bite of braised pork that Chen Changan ate was really fat but not greasy. It melted in his mouth and left a long aftertaste.

Then came the hairtail fish and eight-treasure chicken. Anyway, Chen Changan enjoyed the meal. The children from both families also ate with their mouths full of oil.

In fact, Nan Yi's family didn't prepare any food, just the hairtail fish distributed by the unit and some meat they bought themselves.

But the meat that Chen Changan brought was fatter, and there was also a chicken. Nan Yi finally showed off his skills.

After the meal, the children from both families were lying on the kang, their bellies full from eating so much.

Chen Changan chatted with Nan Yi for a while and then took his sisters back to make dumplings.

Watching his sisters smearing noodles on each other's faces, Chen Changan no longer criticized them for wasting food.

When there is not enough food, they will naturally learn to cherish food. Besides, it is the New Year, so let them have some fun.

I usually go to bed early, so my younger sisters went to bed early as if they didn’t stay up all night to celebrate the New Year.

As soon as twelve o'clock arrived, the sound of firecrackers could be heard everywhere.

Chen Changan also took out the firecrackers he had prepared and set them off.

In the morning, several sisters got up one after another and ate dumplings with Chen Changan.

Chen Changan took his sisters to pay New Year's greetings to Director Wang.

As soon as he entered the door, Chen Changan shouted, "Auntie Wang, I'm here to wish you a happy new year."

Hearing Chen Changan's voice, Director Wang also came out of the kitchen and saw Chen Changan holding cigarettes, alcohol, snacks, and candy in his hands.

He immediately said with a straight face, "Come if you want to. Why are you carrying things? You have so many sisters, don't you know to leave some for them?"

Chen Changan smiled and said, "If I don't bring something during the New Year, I will be too embarrassed to come and see you.

Besides, I am a factory manager now after all. I have no shortage of documents and my salary is not low.

How can you not have money to buy some snacks for your sisters? I'll bring it to you, so just accept it."

Director Wang then smiled and said, "You kid, let Auntie Wang have a taste of your filial piety."
