Golden Color Xiangjiang: A Young Man's Dream in a Siheyuan

After Zhou Jin finished lunch at his grandfather's house, he rode his bike to Xuanwumen and Chongwenmen. The two courtyards he arranged for Long Yi to buy were near these two city gates.

Today is their first day moving in, and Zhou Jin went over to take a look at the specific situation. After all, he has been eyeing these two courtyards for some time, and wondered if there have been any changes.

Zhou Jin visited the two courtyards this afternoon, and gave orders to the five people in person, asking them to finalize the black market cooperation before the weekend. This time was ample, after all, those who had food were the bosses now.

At the same time, Zhou Jin also learned one thing, that is, after the robot is materialized, it also needs to eat, just like normal people, eating grains and having seven emotions and six desires, but it will absolutely obey Zhou Jin's orders, which is exactly the same as the system introduction.

It seems that I will have to consider their lifelong affairs in the future.

This made Zhou Jin once again surprised at the civilization of Sirius. This was equivalent to Nuwa creating humans, and they could also develop into talents in a targeted way. It was awesome.

However, Zhou Jin thought they were robots and did not need to eat, so he did not give them the choice of cooking skills. Now, five grown men can't cook.

Zhou Jin could only prepare meals in the space, and they could take them out and eat when they were hungry. Of course, in order to attract other people's attention, Zhou Jin told them to cook at least one meal at home every day. It didn't matter whether the meal was delicious or not, as long as others knew that they had cooked.

Of course, you can just make some simple dishes like porridge, steamed buns, stir-fried cabbage, and shredded potatoes.

After handling all matters properly, Zhou Jin got up and left.

In fact, there was no need for him to come in person, because they could communicate through the system, which was even more convenient than a phone call and there was no need to pay any call charges.

However, Zhou Jin believes that only by seeing it with one's own eyes can one be truly at ease, and it is also to prevent possible unexpected situations so that a solution can be found quickly.

When Zhou Jin returned to his grandfather's house, several people enjoyed dinner together.

Seeing that it was getting late, Zhou Jin and Zhou Xin set out on their journey home.

After arriving home, Zhou Jin helped Zhou Xin finish washing up, and then went back to the bedroom to rest.

It is now August and the new semester will begin next month. Zhou Jin needs to make plans in advance to avoid delaying Zhou Xin's learning progress due to time constraints.

The original plan was to ask Yan Bugui for help, because he is not only a teacher at Hongxing Primary School, but also has been teaching there for many years. He must be a senior teacher, so things would be easier.

However, ever since he stabbed him in the back for Yi Zhonghai's benefit last time, Zhou Jin didn't plan to have anything to do with him anymore, lest he get stuck with him and couldn't get rid of him.

I gave him benefits at that time, thinking that we all lived in the same courtyard, so I asked him to take better care of Zhou Xin. It didn't matter if he took advantage of me from time to time, and Zhou Jin didn't care about it.

But this old man was not satisfied and wanted to have the best of both worlds. As a result, when forced to make a choice, he decisively stabbed me in the back. This kind of person who only cares about whoever gives him milk is worse than Liu Haizhong.

Anyway, Zhou Jin didn't plan to have anything to do with him, otherwise he wouldn't know what happened if he was cheated in the future.

Moreover, he is the deputy section chief of the steel rolling mill. It would be easy for him to go directly to the principal of Red Star Primary School, as he has more face than a teacher. Then he can bring some high-end gifts.

Moreover, with the principal's protection, there is no need to worry that Yan Bugui will secretly make things difficult for Zhou Xin. If he really dares to do so, then he can forget about living a good life, as his salary will really be reduced to 27 yuan.

It just so happens that I need to go to the steel mill tomorrow to confirm with Li Huaide the final pick-up time and the vehicle preparation status, and by the way, I can do this matter. With Deputy Director Li's presence, it will be more convenient to arrange a meeting with the principal.

As Zhou Jin was thinking, he started snoring. After all, he had been running all day and was very tired.

On the other hand, as soon as Yi Zhonghai got home from get off work, he asked an old lady about Sha Zhu's situation.

Unfortunately, Auntie missed all the opportunities to meet Sha Zhu today. When Sha Zhu came back in the morning, Auntie was cleaning the house at the deaf old lady's house. When Qin Huairu left later, Auntie had already returned home.

So Auntie knew nothing about Sha Zhu's situation. After all, Yi Zhonghai didn't ask her to monitor Sha Zhu. And with Auntie's personality, she was completely unwilling to interfere. As long as you don't tell me, I will pretend I don't know.

After hearing the reply, Yi Zhonghai also knew his wife's character, so he didn't say much, but just asked the aunt to cook some more food later.

I will personally deliver the food to Sha Zhu and then start eating.

It was dinner time in the courtyard, and the smell of food from every household wafted in. Sha Zhu had only eaten in the morning, and he was woken up by hunger after a whole day.

After getting up, Sha Zhu felt much better and could move normally. He should go to work tomorrow. He looked up at the wall clock and it was already past seven o'clock.

I have to say that the male protagonist of the original drama has a very strong physique. Even though his ribs were broken by Zhou Jin before, he only stayed in the hospital for a week, and rested at home for half a month before going back to work normally.

With regard to this recovery ability, who else can compare with it? It's so powerful that it's terrifying.

At this time, Sha Zhu was still fantasizing that his dear sister Qin would come to visit him with a bowl of delicious chicken soup, and he could touch her little hand. Suddenly, there was a creak, and the door was pushed open.

Sha Zhu's fantasy was shattered at once, but the person who came was not his sister Qin, but an old man Yi Zhonghai. Yi Zhonghai came in carrying a plate of steamed buns and a plate of fried cabbage.

Sha Zhu knew that this was someone bringing him food, so he stopped thinking about Sister Qin's chicken soup and decided to fill his stomach first. He hurried over, took the plate from Yi Zhonghai's hand, and put it on the table.

"Uncle, you are the one who cares about me. If you hadn't come, I would have starved to death in bed."

"Okay, stop being so joking and eat quickly. I forgot to tell your aunt about lunch. I guess you didn't have any food to eat, so eat more now."

Sha Zhu didn't hesitate to eat, after all, he had been hungry for the whole day.

Seeing that Sha Zhu had almost finished eating, Yi Zhonghai started to ask Sha Zhu.

"Zhu Zi, do you remember what I told you this morning?"

Sha Zhu didn't react for a moment and replied without thinking.

"What's the matter, uncle?"

In other words, Yi Zhonghai understood Sha Zhu's character and personality, otherwise he would have gotten angry long ago, and then he continued.

"I told you this morning that I would help you collect your salary and save money. What do you think about it?"

"Oh, about this matter, uncle. After I got home, I thought about it carefully and felt that it was inappropriate to ask you to collect my salary on my behalf. After all, I am such a young man, how can I ask my elders to help me collect my salary? If this gets out, others will think that I have no opinion and everything is decided by my family. Then it will be difficult for me to find a wife."

In fact, Sha Zhu has always known that Yi Zhonghai is using him as a retirement backup, but he didn't point it out and pretended that he didn't know. This way he got the benefits without any psychological burden.

Now calling him his elder is to make Yi Zhonghai think that he is a family member, thus lowering Yi Zhonghai's guard. Coupled with his perfect reason, this matter can be easily resolved.

Not only can he keep his salary, but he can also make Yi Zhonghai trust him more, and he will get more support and help in the future.

Secondly, Sha Zhu was thinking about finding a wife. He liked Qin Huairu, but he was also attracted by her body. Although Sha Zhu was not good-looking and looked old, he looked like he was forty in his twenties.

But he had a nice idea. He felt that as a chef in a steel rolling mill, he earned 37.5 yuan a month. Even if he was a level 10 chef now, earning more than 20 yuan a month, Sha Zhu believed that with his cooking skills, it would only be a matter of time before he was promoted to a level 8 chef.

Moreover, Sha Zhu lives in the main house of the courtyard house, and has an ear room, and he has only one younger sister to support. Of course, he doesn't need to support her now, as the burden is small, and he is a real man in Beijing.

Then you must find someone prettier than Qin Huairu, who must have a city hukou, a job, and preferably someone who is educated and has studied.

To be honest, Sha Zhu's conditions are indeed good. In this era when the average monthly income per capita is five yuan, he has more than thirty, which is already more than most people. What's more, he has a house, a private one, so the burden is not too big.

But he didn't think about it. He only thought about his advantages. However, his disadvantages were much more than his advantages. Besides, there were so many people in this courtyard who didn't want him to get married.

The first is his reputation. With just a little inquiry, you will know that Sha Zhu has a bad temper, often beats people, has a foul mouth, a narrow mind, and is always thinking about other people's wives.

And Sha Zhu's appearance is also a problem. He is not good-looking and looks a bit old. In addition, he hangs around in the kitchen every day, which is full of smoke and fire, making him look even older.

In addition, he didn't pay much attention to his personal hygiene and always smelled of cooking fumes.

You say, with such a bad reputation, old-looking and unclean man, which good person would marry his daughter to him?

Not to mention that there is no woman who meets his requirements. If he has the qualifications, he would definitely look for someone like Zhou Jin. Why would he look for a cook who is obsessed with someone else's wife? Isn't that crazy?

Secondly, many people in the yard don’t want to see Sha Zhu get married.

The first one is Yi Zhonghai. He originally planned to ask Sha Zhu to help support the Jia family, so that he could use Sha Zhu’s money to support his own elderly.

This makes it impossible to let Sha Zhu get married. If the wife he marries is not easy to deceive, Yi Zhonghai will have to pay for it himself. However, Yi Zhonghai has changed his mind now. He insists that Sha Zhu must choose his wife himself, only then will he feel at ease.

The second is the people of the Jia family. Their idea is similar to Yi Zhonghai's, that is, if Sha Zhu gets married, he will most likely no longer help his family, so Sha Zhu must be single. Sha Zhu had several blind dates before, but they were ruined because the Jia family sabotaged them behind the scenes.

The third is Xu Damao. They are pure enemies. After all, there is no deep hatred between them. They just can't stand each other. With Yi Zhonghai's instigation, the relationship between the two has become mortal enemies. So Xu Damao will never watch Sha Zhu get married. He hopes that Sha Zhu will be single all his life and become a family with no descendants.

Finally, there are the people in the courtyard who have been offended by Sha Zhu. There are quite a few of them, including Liu Haizhong and Yan Bugui.

Sha Zhu has always disliked these two uncles and thinks that Liu Haizhong is a fool who only knows how to beat his son and abuse his power. Others say so in private, but Sha Zhu is not like that. He often embarrasses Liu Haizhong in front of others.

As for Yan Bugui, Sha Zhu felt that he was a grown man, a teacher at that, but he was always trying to take advantage of others. He was not manly at all and brought shame to the men in their city. So Sha Zhu often said in front of the crowd that Yan Bugui was stingy and a calculating person.

I won’t list the others one by one, but the only ones who can catch Sha Zhu’s eye in this courtyard are the old man, the deaf old lady and Qin Huairu.

If he doesn't like someone, he will just criticize them, regardless of the occasion.

You just say that he has offended so many people, how could he get married easily? Plus, he has such high standards, he will probably end up living alone in this life.

I've gone off topic. I can't stop writing now, so let's get back to the plot.
