Siheyuan: There are seven fairies in my house, I am so busy
Chapter 194 Envy and Jealousy
Wang Shujuan, Zhang Jiazhen, Zhang Jiani, and Zhang Jiaxiu were busy coming in and out, and people in the compound soon learned that the Zhang family needed to make new cotton-padded clothes and change their quilts.
Such a large event requires a lot of cotton, which makes many people in the courtyard jealous, especially Yan Fugui's family, because they live closest to the Zhang family and they know the most about the Zhang family.
"Mother, the Zhang family has been busy these past few days, making cotton-padded clothes and quilts. Where did they get so much cotton?
Do you know how much cotton they need for such a big event?"
While eating, Yan Fugui thought about the afternoon when he was watering the flowers and saw the Zhang family busy making cotton-padded clothes, and he suddenly became curious.
“I have also inquired about this matter, but the Zhang family is still unwilling to talk about it and seems to be trying to cover it up.
However, I also heard a few words from his family members' private discussions. They said that the whole family had to make new cotton-padded jackets and trousers. They also said that their eldest son-in-law Chen Xiaoguang also got some, and his second daughter's family also gave some cotton.
It takes at least 4 kilograms of cotton to make a full set of cotton clothes. There are eight people in his family now, plus the eldest daughter's family and the second daughter, at least 12 people need to make clothes, which requires 48 kilograms of cotton. Add their little granddaughter, and it will take at least 50 kilograms of cotton, not to mention the cotton they need to fill the quilts they wash and disassemble. 50 kilograms is a minimum. "
After listening to Yan Fugui's questions, the third aunt talked about the Zhang family's cotton, and she became more and more surprised as she spoke.
She hadn't calculated it carefully yet, but when she did, she was really shocked that she would need so much cotton all of a sudden.
“So much cotton?
Where do you think they got so much from? "
When Yan Fugui heard the words 50 kilograms of cotton, he was also shocked.
“Who knows?
Maybe it was brought back by his second daughter. Doesn’t his second daughter work in a garment factory?
Or it could be that kid Zhang Jialiang. He's quite capable now. You see, their family has been living a lot better in the past six months.
Not only do they eat well, they are all well-maintained and well-dressed. A while ago, each person in their family just made a new piece of clothing, and now they are making new cotton-padded clothes.
The Zhang family also got a new bicycle and a sitting room.
Without making any noise, somehow their family's life became better."
As neighbors, they have observed the changes in the Zhang family most clearly and have the most say. Whether it is in terms of food, clothing or housing, the Zhang family has changed a lot in all aspects in the past six months.
The more the third aunt talked, the more jealous she felt. In the past, their family lived better than the Zhang family, but somehow, now the Zhang family's life was getting better and better, and had surpassed theirs, which made her feel very uncomfortable.
“Who knows?
The Zhang family is very wealthy now. Wang Shujuan is a regular employee, Zhang Jiazhen is also a regular employee, and although Zhang Jiani and Zhang Jiaxiu are temporary workers, they also have jobs. The family is earning a lot of money now.
There is also the kid Zhang Jialiang. Even though he has no job, he should earn a lot by going hunting outside the city every day. Even a little kid like their family, Wu Ya, has found a part-time job and earns 10 or 8 yuan a month following Master Zhou. All added up, it should be more than 100 yuan.
Fortunately, their eldest daughter and second daughter are married, and their family no longer makes matchboxes. Otherwise, the Zhang family would have quietly become a wealthy family in the compound.
Even so, his family's conditions are pretty good now, and they no longer live the hard life they used to.
I think this was all done by that kid Zhang Jialiang. Even though he seems to be lazy and not doing his job all day long, he has become a lot better in the past six months.
He helped his family find almost all the jobs, and he also helped them get the house from the street, and he also bought the bicycles, food, and clothes for their family."
Yan Fugui thought about all the changes in the Zhang family, and it all came down to this kid Zhang Jialiang.
There has been a change in Zhang Jialiang since half a year ago. Although he still has no job and is trying to make a living, he no longer goes out to the streets to drink and fight.
All the changes in their family are related to Zhang Jialiang.
“Don’t tell me, it’s true.
I don’t know how this kid Zhang Jialiang changed?
How come you suddenly got it?
People have become capable, and the Zhang family is now living a prosperous life.
However, the Zhang family was very stingy. No one could take advantage of them. Take cotton for example. With so much cotton in the compound, who wouldn't be jealous? Many people went to his family to test the waters, wanting to borrow some or help buy some, but his family refused to give in and rejected all their requests.
They said that they had too many people in their family to use cotton, let alone help to buy cotton. Others only said that they got the cotton by chance and there was no other way to buy more.
The third aunt was jealous of the cotton and tried to ask the Zhang family for it. As expected, she was turned away, which made her very uncomfortable.
“The Zhang family is indeed like this. They have always been like this. They never take advantage of other families, and other families cannot take advantage of them either.
Just say that ever since Zhang Jialiang started hunting, his family has been able to eat meat every few days. Who in the compound can take advantage of them?
Even if I wanted to have a drink, I wouldn't be given the chance for such a long time. Instead, I often get together with Xu Damao and Sha Zhu to drink.
But although I was a little angry, I didn't have much resentment. What they ate and used were all obtained by their own ability. It was a gesture of friendship that they were willing to let people in the compound benefit from it, and it was also their duty not to let others take advantage of them. No one could say anything.
After all, the people in the compound have never helped the Zhang family over the years. They didn’t lend a helping hand when the Zhang family was in a tight spot in the past, so it’s unlikely that they will take advantage of them now.”
Yan Fugui does have many shortcomings, the biggest of which is that he is calculating and likes to take advantage of small things. However, his nature is pretty good, and he is sensible and reasonable.
But it is a pity that too much calculation has eroded family affection, and as a result, the children follow suit, and each of them is even better than their teacher, Yan Fugui.
Zhang Jialiang's life was prosperous, and Xu Damao's life was equally carefree. A while ago, Zhang Jialiang disrupted the good things between him and Zhang Jiaxiu, and he was depressed for two days, but he soon returned to normal.
He won't hang himself on a tree. There are plenty of beautiful girls. As long as he has the ability and talent, he can find one anywhere.
Recently, I don’t know what his new goal is. He is busy every day and hardly stays in the compound.
He either went to the countryside to show movies or hung out outside. The person who lived the most carefree life in the entire compound was Xu Damao.
