Siheyuan: From the time I became a fool

"He's an old Red Army soldier, and an injured one at that. We really can't afford to offend him. Let's not talk about this again in the future.

Qin Huairu, you poor country bumpkin, did you hear that? If I hear you making up stories about the old Red Army soldiers, I will tear your mouth to pieces."

When Jia Zhang heard this, she immediately shut up. This disabled soldier who was wounded on the battlefield was more than 100 times better than her, an old widow.

How could she go up to someone and bully, beat, scold, cheat or blackmail him?

Although Jia Zhang looked crazy and dared to take advantage of others wherever she went, she was never stupid.

The people she bullied were those who were too proud to argue with an old widow like her, or those she could afford to offend.

Otherwise, she would have been beaten to death long ago, not to mention being able to raise Jia Dongxu, successfully take over Old Jia's job, and marry Qin Huairu, who could be suppressed and scolded by her from time to time and had her under her control.

Everyone says that Qin Huairu is a top-notch white lotus spirit, but in fact the most skillful one is Jia Zhang.

Although this old woman often throws tantrums and makes people feel disgusted and fearful, she has actually won over all those who need to be won over.

She even lived a more comfortable life than Qin Huairu, the young widow who went around promiscuous and ended up clinging to Sha Zhu.

Otherwise, Qin Huairu would not have died early in the end, but she lived happily for hundreds of years without any illness or disaster.

"Mom, I get it. I won't do it again."

Qin Huairu, you are just feeling wronged. Wasn't it you who brought up the topic? Why are you putting the blame on me now?

I used to ask for food and benefits from Sha Zhu, but you forced me to go? Now I am the one who is wrong. Why is my life so miserable that I have to meet such a mother-in-law?

"Huai Ru! Don't blame me for what I said. I'm doing this for your own good. I've always had a sharp tongue but a soft heart."

When Jia Zhang saw her son's bad complexion, her expression immediately eased, and these words also warmed her heart. Qin Huairu's heart was so painful. She was about to cry with tears in her eyes, but... she was glared back by her own man.

"Mom, I know, you're doing everything for me, for the children, and for this family."

Jia Dongxu's expression eased a little, "Huai Ru! From now on, when you borrow things from Sha Zhu, be more polite. If he doesn't like you, don't borrow from him. But they say that a distant relative is not as good as a close neighbor. Isn't it normal for neighbors to borrow things from each other?"

Qin Huairu is numb, so I have to borrow it when the time comes, right?

But the food was so big that I couldn't even drink the soup.

If it weren't for Uncle Yi helping me, what would I do in the future? Uncle Yi has made so much money, will he still care about me in the future?

What should I do in the future? I have another baby in my belly. Even if this one is born, I will have to have another one...

How can we live in the future when we earn so little money? The child's household registration is still with me.

Ugh!

My life is not even as good as that widow Xiao Wang in the front yard!

Widow Xiao Wang also came from the countryside. She had been married for only three years and had two children, but her husband died of tuberculosis.

Now, widow Xiao Wang has taken over her husband's job, putting labels on the soap factory, and can earn more than 20 yuan a month.

The widow Xiao Wang became a formal employee because she took over the job of her dead husband. She also got a proper urban hukou, and her children were also transferred to urban hukou.

These three people have their rations and wages, but the key is that they lack a grown man to eat and drink with them. Their life is better than that of a man!

Even the mother-in-law coaxed her every day, fearing that she would remarry and leave if she was unhappy, and ignore the old couple. After all, the old couple was just like her own family, with only one son, and the most important thing was that he died.

But can I say this? I can’t say it, and I shouldn’t even think about it. Ugh, why am I thinking about this?

…………

"Zhu Zi, what can I say about you? You're busy at this early in the morning. Isn't the smell so delicious? You've done such a good job. It's too expensive. I just asked you to prepare some fine food."

Isn’t it early in the morning? At only 5 o’clock, He Yuzhu started steaming the buns made of Erhe flour.

The peeled potatoes were thrown into the beef pot, and the dried cabbage vermicelli were thrown into the pork pot and started to boil.

It is even more fragrant. It is impossible for anyone to forget what it is. The key point is that no one knows what kind of meat is in that pot, and there is quite a lot of it. It is also very fragrant, spicy and made everyone drool.

Several families started beating their children early in the morning, but what did the children do wrong?

Uncle Bu Er came over first, because he was the one who helped find the master! He was quite responsible in this matter. First of all, he couldn't let his old friend come here to work for nothing and not have a good meal, right?

Secondly, since he was the one who introduced the masters, he has to take responsibility and let the masters do the job well.

"Second uncle, come here and have a taste to see if this tastes good or not!"

He Yuzhu was not stingy and simply took out a few pieces of beef and pork from the bowl and handed them to him.

"Oh, let me try it." Liu Haizhong took a bite subconsciously and then gave a thumbs up.

"Delicious, this is really delicious, Zhuzi, your cooking skills have improved! Look at how tender the beef and pork are, and how fragrant they are."

"Try this again. Don't be disgusted. This is the fox meat sold in the pigeon market. I see it was recently killed."

He Yuzhu gave him another small bowl of fox meat.

Liu Haizhong was not polite either, and he ate several pieces at once, which was quite a show of respect for him.

"Delicious, delicious, your cooking skills are amazing, I have bought this fox meat before.

What does the stew your second aunt made taste like? It's fishy and smelly. I couldn't waste the meat and oil, so I forced myself to eat it while holding back my nausea.

Um, next time I buy this fox meat, I'll come to you."

As for disliking fox meat? Well, Liu Haizhong doesn't dislike rat meat, let alone fox meat. Nowadays, anything that can be eaten is good stuff. The harder a man works, the more he knows that life is not easy.

"No problem, you can come find me then.

Well, I'll have to trouble Second Auntie to look after me for a while and entertain me. I have to go to work at the factory. I heard that there will be a leader from the department coming at noon today, so I have to go and get busy."

"No problem. I'll leave this matter to your second aunt."

Liu Haizhong patted his chest

"Thank you, uncle. Um, don't leave any of the meat, vegetables, and steamed buns. Eat them all.

I will thank the masters again when I come back."

The main reason is that he is really busy, and he believes that the master will do the job well.

To put it bluntly, these meat and vegetable steamed buns are for the masters and the second uncle's family. Since their owner is not here, they may feel more comfortable here.

The emperor has enough hungry soldiers, not to mention that they don't even want any wages. Even Li Huaide gave him all kinds of benefits for making a secret of his career, and even promoted him and gave him a salary increase!

"Okay, okay, no problem! Don't worry, we've made it clear for you. And if you think it's not good, we can just find a master to fix it."

Liu Haizhong patted his chest and guaranteed that in terms of real strength, he was actually better than Yi Zhonghai and the third uncle.

It’s not that he doesn’t care about his wife and children, it’s just that his job consumes too much physical energy and his resources are limited.

Since Sha Zhuzi had spoken, he could naturally let his wife and children also get some benefits, although it wouldn't be too much to satisfy the group of masters.

"It's all thanks to you, Second Uncle, that you're here to help me take care of this, otherwise I'd be at a loss again."

He Yuzhu was waiting for the second uncle to say nice words. To be honest, as an amateur, he was not as knowledgeable as the second uncle about furniture. Yes, they looked better than he did.

"Hahaha, this is normal. I've eaten more salt than you have eaten rice. If I hadn't been doing this forging job, I would have been a good carpenter. Don't worry, I'll be back after get off work at noon and help you check how the work is going. If it's not good, ask them to change it immediately."

It was obvious that the second uncle loved to hear these flattering words and enjoyed them very much.
