Love in the Siheyuan: Starting from Jia Dongxu

"No, Aunt Wang, please spare me. Yeda is too far." Jia Dongxu begged for mercy quickly.

Director Wang was not polite either. "Whether you go or not is your problem. Find a solution for me quickly."

"Then let's go to your military control office. By the way, Aunt Wang, you are so busy, where is your boy?"

"I don't know whose house they went to play. They came back by themselves when they were hungry at night." Director Wang said indifferently.

After listening to this for a while, Jia Dongxu was speechless and handed Yu Shui a piece of candy. Yu Shui was still well-behaved. If it were a naughty child like Director Wang's, he would be so angry that he would die.

"Why are you bringing He Daqing with you?" Director Wang asked curiously when he saw Yu Shui eating candy quietly.

"Take her out for a walk. This child can't play with the kids in the yard, otherwise she will just make trouble and won't be able to concentrate on her studies." Jia Dongxu said meaningfully.

"Yeah, you're right. The two kids in our family just can't concentrate on their studies. They just play outside. It drives me crazy." Director Wang said with a headache.

"Auntie Wang, I don't see that you are anxious at all." Jia Dongxu said from the side.

"You also said that you used to play outside all day long, but now you have learned your lesson. I think boys should play outside. When they grow up, they will naturally become sensible."

Well, this was not continued, and only Jia Dongxu knew what was going on.

Director Wang, you're on your own. This can't help you. You've unknowingly set an example. You're just an accident. If you really let the sheep go, you will definitely not be able to meet your requirements.

Forget it, these are not my business. I should just think about how to help Director Wang make the National Day more lively.

"Auntie Wang, do you have a budget for this event? How much money do you plan to spend?" Jia Dongxu asked while holding Yu Shui's hand.

"Well, there is no budget. How come you have an idea?" Director Wang said, "You know, we are very poor now. How can we have extra money to waste on these things?"

"But if it's not some urgent material, I can go and coordinate it."

"That's great. Can we coordinate some red and yellow cloth so we can make some flags and hang them everywhere?" Jia Dongxu asked.

Director Wang thought for a moment and said, "We don't need too much here. We can get this, and we can also take out the money from each household last year."

"Dongxu, just tell me here so I can remember it." Director Wang stopped halfway and said.

"Okay, then let's do this. The young people in our street will form a gong and drum team, and everyone will beat the gongs and drums. Then the rest of the young people will hold up red flags and follow everyone in the parade, from one street to another, and bring all their people to our street.

“This way we’ll have some fun.”

"Well, that's a good idea. Okay, Dongxu, go and have fun. I'll go back and think about it and perfect it. By the way, you have to join the gong and drum team."

Director Wang left with the young man like the wind.

What is going on? Finding a job for no reason? Can't I just lie down at home with this time?

Uh, it seems that it really isn't possible. If I am not proactive about this matter at this time, the worst I will get will be the least I can do.

As the rain destroyed the yard, Liu Guangfu and several other kids in the yard surrounded Jia Dongxu and asked him to give them candy.

Why do I feel like today isn't going well?

While continuing to distribute the candies, Jia Dongxu muttered to himself.

Not only was he scolded by Jia Zhang in the morning, but his candy was also taken away by a group of boys in the courtyard. In the end, he was drafted into the army by Director Wang.

Jia Dongxu decided not to go out from now on.

"Dongxu, where are my cigarettes?"

When Sha Zhu saw Jia Dongxu coming back, he hurriedly asked for a cigarette.

Jia Dongxu threw the cigarette over and said, "Didn't I give you half a pack of cigarettes yesterday? How come it's gone after one night?"

"How can that be possible?" Sha Zhu took out a cigarette from his pocket. "I still have a few left. I'll prepare two packs and give them to those guys tonight."

"Don't pay attention to them, they're a bunch of bastards." Jia Dongxu couldn't help but say.

"Well, I've smoked their cigarettes before. I'm going to start work officially tomorrow, so I'll treat them to a cigarette today." Sha Zhu said.

"Why don't you invite them to drink?" Jia Dongxu was too lazy to say anything.

"You're dreaming. They haven't even treated me to a drink, so treating them to a cigarette is already a reward for them." Sha Zhu said.

Jia Dongxu suddenly thought of a way to let them go and have fun on their own. "Zhu Zi, today you can just give the cigarettes directly to Yan Jiecheng in front of them and let them go find Yan Jiecheng on their own. We will have a good show tonight."

"Really? Take it. I'll give a packet to Yan Jiecheng who performed in front of them tonight." Sha Zhu said with a smile. He was very happy to watch their fun.

"Why haven't Aunt Jia and the others come back from shopping yet? Dongxu, some dishes need to be prepared in advance. I'll finish preparing them here quickly. The aunt who helped out has gone to cook for others. Uh, go and urge them to do it."

Sha Zhu looked outside the door.

Well, I just said I wouldn’t go out, but now I have to go out again. Please don’t let me do anything to upset you.

Jia Dongxu hurried to the vegetable market, which took about ten minutes to get there. After Jia Dongxu arrived, he looked for them one by one, but he didn't see Jia Zhang and the others.

These three people tried to buy kindness but failed.

When Jia Dongxu reached the end of the vegetable market, he found that Jia Zhang was arguing with a butcher.

"Mom, Zhuzi is waiting for you to buy vegetables and bring them home. Why did you start arguing with the butcher?" Jia Dongxu said helplessly.

"My dear young comrade, you came at the right time. Please judge for me. Your mother said yesterday that she wanted to buy 20 kilograms of meat. I brought it here today. Your mother said that the meat didn't look fat and was just not good. You said it's not easy to get some meat now. Your mother wanted to buy 20 kilograms at once, and I had to look for it in many places to evenly distribute it."

"Brother, please let me see the meat." Jia Dongxu said that he still couldn't get used to eating fatty meat, so naturally he had no objection to the meat not being fatty.

The man carried a pile of meat over, and it was indeed lean meat. Jia Dongxu was delighted when he saw it, thinking it was tenderloin. He quickly said, "This meat is good, I want it."

Jia Dongxu thought of sweet and sour pork, braised pork tenderloin, and sweet and sour pork tenderloin, all of which he had never eaten since coming here. Today he would ask Shahu to make them for a try, but he didn't know if Shazhu could cook them.

This is good meat, how could Jia Zhang reject it?

Jia Zhang quickly grabbed Jia Dongxu and said, "Dongxu, I ordered 20 kilograms of pork belly. I have already paid the deposit. I want the meat for the banquet. What do you want the lean meat for?"

"Uh, Mom, I like this meat. Let's keep it for ourselves. We'll finish it in a few days. We can just buy some fat meat to go with it."
