Siheyuan: Steel Mill Driver

"Think about it carefully and slowly."

"Just think about it. You will be arrested tomorrow. If the evidence is irrefutable, you will be sentenced directly. If you are lucky, it will be over with just a peanut."

"If you are unlucky and get sentenced to life imprisonment, then, well, well, well, well, just imagine life in the Northwest. It will be like this for the rest of your life!"

"Do you still think I want too much?"

Yi Zhonghai closed his eyes and said, "I was wrong. I didn't think it through! Zhuzi, don't calculate it. Just tell me the exact number. I know you already have a specific number in mind."

Sha Zhu nodded, looked at Yi Zhonghai and said, "It's impossible for me to get less than Gou Sheng. If other people knew about this, they would all be deducted the same money and salary by you. If I get less, I will not be able to survive in the future, and I will be laughed at to death by others."

Yi Zhonghai looked at Sha Zhu for a while. He knew that it was impossible to give less than this amount. He sighed and said, "Zhu Zi, it's not that I don't want to give you this amount. If I had it, I would give you 1. The key is that I really don't have that much right now."

Sha Zhu nodded and said, "I know this. Didn't I give you one night? You won't see the money tomorrow morning! Then I..."

"Silly pillar, silly pillar?"

"Oh, here we come."

He opened the door, saw that it was Li Gousheng and asked, "What's up, Gousheng?"

"A few friends came over, and they were all jealous of your cooking skills. They brought chicken, fish, and mutton. I also have some peanuts and eggs. You can make a few dishes and we can have some drinks."

"Okay, I'll go right away." After saying that, he gestured towards the house.

"Okay, I'll go back first, hurry up."

Jia Zhang was dozing in bed. When she heard about chicken, fish, and mutton, she sat up and asked, "Where are the chicken, fish, and mutton?"

Qin Huairu said speechlessly: "Mom, it's Li Gousheng's house. A few friends came and brought some ingredients. They asked Sha Zhu to help cook."

Jia Zhang gnashed her teeth and said, "Damn Li Gousheng, he has so many good things but he didn't even send some to an old man like me. He is so uneducated. I don't know how his parents taught him."

"It's bad enough that he keeps hanging out with hooligans outside, but now he's bringing them home. He'll be shot at sooner or later."

Qin Huairu didn't know what to say, so she could only interrupt and say, "Mom, I've already agreed with Uncle San that Banggeng can go to school with me tomorrow. What do you think of the tuition?"

"What? You still need tuition. I think Mr. Yan has decided not to do it anymore, right? I'll go find him."

Qin Huairu felt particularly tired and said, "Mom, it's not Uncle Three who collected the money, it's the state. Besides, Uncle Three is teaching second grade now, and he's not teaching Banggeng and the others. And kindergarten is only 8 cents a semester now."

When Jia Zhang heard this, she sat down and said, "How would I know that? I thought it was like before, where the teacher collected all the money! I have never been to school, so how would I know these things? Okay, ask Dongxu for the money when he comes back." After that, she lay down on the bed again.

When Sha Zhu heard the noise at the Jia family's house, he just took a look, then went into the house and said, "Uncle, you know what I'm thinking. If I can't see you tomorrow morning, I'll go directly to the police station. You heard me go to the front yard to see Gou Sheng."

Yi Zhonghai said, "I understand, Zhuzi, listen to my advice, that boy is not a good person, you will learn bad things from him sooner or later."

Sha Zhu prepared the seasoning and said, "When I was almost starving to death, it was the Li family who gave me a hot meal."

"Didn't you teach me before? People should not forget their roots. Even if I learn bad things from him, I am willing to do that. It is better than you taking the living expenses my father sent back and watching my brother and sister starve to death without doing anything, right?"

"Zhu Zi, you don't understand. You spend money lavishly. Sooner or later, this little money will be spent by you. I want to use it to help you find a wife when you get married."

Sha Zhu looked back at Yi Zhonghai and said, "Spending all the money is better than starving to death, right?"

"You didn't starve to death, did you? If it really came to that, how could I ignore you? I just wanted you to know how difficult life is, and I wanted you to become a real man and take care of this family. Except for the first two years, you and your sister have been doing pretty well, haven't you? Everyone goes through hardships before they can be happy."

"That's enough, Yi Zhonghai, did I give you face? Get out of here."

After Sha Zhu saw Yi Zhonghai off in a friendly manner, he took his things and went to the front yard.

I thought to myself: Is this Li Gousheng a monster? How come he knows everything Yi Zhonghai says? Want to PUA me? Grandma, um, that's the word, right?

Li Feng looked at his rising emotion value and his mentality has improved a lot. Now he has more than 50 million emotion value. In another month, or at the latest in less than two months, he will be able to buy a skill in the mall. Which skill should he choose first?

Sha Zhu saw the ingredients and said, "OK guys, you have some ideas!"

Tiedan said arrogantly: "It's OK, don't you think this big rooster is nice?"

Li Feng said speechlessly: "Don't be so cocky, okay? He is the chef of the steel mill. It is easier for him to get some ingredients than you."

Sha Zhu laughed and said, "Come on, I'm good at cooking, and I can get supplies from places like the Pigeon Market and the Black Market, and from a few friends I know."

Li Feng said, "Okay, what do you think we can cook with these?"

Yang Dianfeng said, "Yes, look at this. I got it with great difficulty. I'll use it to nourish Gousheng."

Sha Zhu looked at the sheep kidneys, sheep treasures, and sheep whips and said, "It's a set! It's really good stuff!"

Li Feng thought of something and asked, "Epilepsy, this is a goat, right?"

"Yeah, what's wrong?"

"No big deal. I have a use for these two goat eggs. Let's do the rest."

When they heard this, they laughed wickedly and said, "Hey, kid! Okay, I'll keep it for you. Tell us later how it works."

Less than half an hour later, the yard was filled with fragrance. The Yan family looked at the food on the table, their stomachs growling with hunger, but they had no appetite at all.

Yan Jiecheng said, "Mom, how long has it been since you last cooked meat? Can our bodies handle this?"

Yan Bugui took a sip of the porridge, which was visible at the bottom of the bowl, and said, "You are just talking nonsense. We made fish soup at home last week. Have you forgotten?"

Yan Jiecheng said speechlessly: "Please don't mention it. It was just a 2-liang crucian carp. My mother added more than ten kilograms of water, two kilograms of potatoes, and a little bit of salt. I couldn't even taste the fish or the salt at the time!"

The third aunt opened her mouth and spit flew all over the table. She looked at Yan Jiecheng and said, "You are always so troublesome. I just want to ask if you have eaten enough. Baba may come. If you have the ability, bring back a pig and I will make you a whole pig feast."
