Siheyuan: From the time I became a fool

"Hahaha, Lao Li, Lao Li, you have finally come to this day. By the way, we all want to see the cleaner's pretty wife. She's pregnant, too. She's really fierce."

Deputy Director Jia of the Meat Processing Plant smiled with his eyes slightly narrowed. He looks a bit like Li Huaide, a fellow worker!

"It's not easy to see that pretty pregnant wife! It's just a matter of a word. What's the matter, Director Jia, are you interested? A job quota, even a temporary job, is fine, and that pretty wife can work for your meat processing plant for free!"

Li Huaide stopped eating and stared at Deputy Director Jia with interest, stroking his chin.

"A temporary job? I heard that this pretty wife is pregnant with her second child. How dare she think about this? Nowadays, a temporary job can be exchanged for a very beautiful young lady."

Deputy Director Jia smiled disdainfully. He was somewhat interested, but the price was too high, and those who came to him for the chance were not worth the money.

Liu Lan served the last dish of soup to these people, and only heaved a sigh of relief after returning to the kitchen with a normal look on her face.

It seems that Qin Huairu didn't hook up with Lao Li! Fortunately, without the benefits given by Lao Li, I would have to starve and freeze.

Hey!

But what is Mr. Qin Huairu doing at home?

If you think the salary of a cleaner is too little, then do something else! Can a living person be suffocated to death? Would you let your wife with a baby go around flirting with other men?

The key point is that Qin Huairu still agreed. If my husband forced me like this at home, I would definitely fight him to the death.

Well, now I am not that great but I am… a bitch! But there is no other way, otherwise the children will go hungry.

"There is indeed a virgin girl, 23 years old, not bad looking, and a local, who also needs a temporary worker position. What do you think? Deputy Director Jia is interested?" Li Huaide asked with interest.

When Deputy Factory Director Jia heard this, he couldn't help but raise his eyebrows. The others also held their breath. "She's only 23 years old, a virgin, from the local area. I dare not touch her. If she does, and she blames me, we will have to have a family revolution.

I think these flirtatious young widows and wives are pretty good, especially those with bad backgrounds, hehe!"

Deputy Director Jia imitated Li Huaide and touched his chin, smiling obscenely.

These people talked in private, so naturally Ma Hua heard everything and then spread the news in the kitchen.

Liu Lan felt terrible when she heard this. She was 23 years old and a local, quite pretty, and it was Lao Li who proposed the position, and all she needed was a temporary worker.

How come this looks so much like Xuanyueduo? It must be true, otherwise where would I put my face? Where would Ruoshui put her face? Would Zhuzi be very angry when he heard this?

Liu Lan thought of a lot of things at once. Although she had a big mouth, she knew that she couldn't say these words, so she could only hold it in her heart.

Seeing this, He Yuzhu said nothing and packed up his

"Sister Lan, it's time to get off work. I'm leaving first. I need to go home and rest for a while."

"Ah?" Liu Lan was stunned for a moment. "Okay, I'll leave after I finish packing."

This chef's working hours are different from theirs, so there's no point in envying them.

On the way home, he took a stroll around the Pigeon Market as usual, but didn't see anything good that caught his eye.

He found a blind spot on the road, put 20 kilograms of cornmeal in his bag, and 30 kilograms of sweet potatoes, which were the cheapest variety he bought, 5 cents per kilogram. He directly finished 2 kilograms. It didn't look much different from the ones of this era.

"Zhu Zi! You are awesome! You bought so much food!"

I didn't run into the third uncle at this time, but I ran into the second aunt who was going out with a bag of noodles.

He responded in a good manner, "Second Aunt, you also need to go out and buy food. I got 30 kilograms of sweet potatoes and some small grains.

I was thinking of cutting it into sweet potato chips and drying them in the sun!"

"It's good to be able to buy 30 kilograms of sweet potatoes. I'll go see if I can buy more. I don't want to chat with you anymore! These three little boys in my family are worried about never having enough to eat. If I had your 30 kilograms of sweet potatoes, I wouldn't even need to dry them. They would have been caught by these three boys."

The second aunt waved her hand at him in a hurry and ran out

"Second Aunt, how about I lend you this rickshaw? Otherwise, where would you put it? But you have to come back early, because I have to go to work this afternoon!"

"That's great, thanks!"

The second aunt followed him back to the central yard, watched him unload the two bags, and then hurriedly rode away on his bicycle.

"Zhu Zi, you are really an adult now. You are more capable than your father now. You can even get sweet potatoes and grains after class! Unlike our Dong Xu, who can't get anything. He is so worried that his hair is falling out and he is so thin that he is just skin and bones."

Jia Zhang walked out of the door and looked at his sweet potato bag with envy. This pillar was really honest. "It looks like there must be 30 kilograms of sweet potatoes. And this one looks pretty big."

"Aunt Jia, you have such a sharp eye. I don't want to chat with you anymore. I need to take a break. I'm cooking in a big pot and then a small pot. I'm afraid you'll laugh at me because my arms are so tired that they're shaking."

He Yuzhu said with a forced smile, picked up the two bags, walked into the house, locked the door, and lay down, all in one go.

This sweet potato is really big, otherwise why is it so cheap? In the 21st century, the bigger the sweet potato, the less valuable it is. The valuable ones are the ones that are long and thin with a smooth core.

After all, everyone buys it and bakes it in the oven, but the pieces are too big to bake, and they don’t feel right after being cut.

How can we eat cornmeal and white flour for a long time? It is normal to eat sweet potatoes, although he doesn't like them very much. But he can give them to his sister and occasionally to his wife.

It’s not that he is stingy, it’s just that this is the way it is in this era. If he is too abnormal, people will suspect him.

"Hey, Zhuzi, I know you are annoyed with my family because of my shameless daughter-in-law, but I still want to be thick-skinned..."

Jia Zhang, because her son was still alive, naturally could not throw a tantrum and ask for food and drink. She could only hold back her heart and talk to He Yuzhu in a gentle manner.

"Aunt Jia, we are neighbors, and it's okay for me to help your family if they are in trouble, but what time is it now? How can I take care of you? I still have to take care of my sister and my wife's family!

But I think the shoes you made are pretty good. Three pounds of sweet potatoes for a pair of cloth shoes. If you agree, I will exchange with you. Of course, if you feel that you are at a disadvantage, just ignore what I said. "

He Yuzhu's words made Jia Zhang hesitate, but the family really didn't have enough to eat these past two days, but she was reluctant to spend her savings.

"Zhu Zi, it takes me several days to make a pair of shoes. How about exchanging 5 kilograms of sweet potatoes for a pair of shoes? Sweet potatoes are not very tasty. Eating too much will give you heartburn."

"I won't bargain for just three pounds. The sweet potatoes are not good, but don't you think about the current situation? Do you know how much effort I put into buying these sweet potatoes? This is life-threatening, but the shoes can be worn as long as they are manageable."

Although everyone thinks that Jia Zhang is greedy, lazy and good for nothing, and is even more slow in making shoes, there is one thing that must be said.

The shoes made by this old lady have really good stitching and are very sturdy. Although they can't be considered as slow and careful work, He Yuzhu and Jia Dongxu are of the same size.

"Three pounds, okay, okay, I'll trade with you, I have five pairs of shoes here."

Jia Zhang thought about it and finally decided to change it after gritting her teeth. She had been to the Pigeon Market several times. The sweet potatoes there were extremely expensive, and they looked particularly small, with lumps of flesh in them.

The sweet potato from Shazhu was indeed very good, and it could fill his stomach, and as for the cloth shoes, if he had them, he could wear them, and if he didn't have them, he could wear old ones. In short, both of them thought that this deal was feasible because they got a good deal.

"Then I have to try it first. Don't worry, I'll wash my feet first and clean them."

He Yuzhu washed his feet in 5 seconds, and then took out 15 kilograms of sweet potatoes. Jia Zhang carefully examined the sweet potatoes and nodded with satisfaction.

He Yuzhu tried all five pairs of shoes out of spite. Well, these shoes are indeed very comfortable to wear. They are indeed made of thousand-layer soles and are pure handmade. Moreover, these are shoes made by Jia Zhang for his son to please him.

"Aunt Jia, your cooking skills are really great. I agree to trade with you, but only this time. Food will be even harder to find in the future. I don't know if I can still buy it."

"You kid, just cry poor, do you still need these sweet potatoes?"

Jia Zhang took the large basin passed down from her ancestors, poured the 15 kilograms of sweet potatoes into the basin, and took it home.

As for the claim of being full, that is totally unnecessary. Jia Zhang's hand is a scale. Jia Zhang can even pick out that Sha Zhu's sweet potato weighs at least half a pound more.

But Jia Zhang got the advantage and never made a fuss.
