Siheyuan: Cao Liang's rise

Silly Zhu family.

At this time, Sha Zhu was drinking wine in his own yard. He even specially prepared some pickled cabbage and fried peanuts to go with the wine.

The upturned corners of the mouth are harder to suppress than AK.

In fact, ever since Qin Huairu came to the hospital for a blind date with Jia Dongxu, Sha Zhu had always been obsessed with her, but he was not old enough at that time, and was restrained by He Daqing, so he could only envy Jia Dongxu.

Over the years, he has been looking for a partner based on Qin Huairu's standards.

But I didn’t expect that Jia Dongxu would have an accident. Doesn’t that mean that his chance has come?

Of course, Sha Zhu had no intention of marrying a widow, he just simply wanted her body.

Don't be fooled by Sha Zhu's carefree appearance, he is actually very proud!

He thought that his silly wife must be a virgin, right?

But this did not stop him from coveting Qin Huairu's body.

after awhile.

Sha Zhu looked through the door towards the Jia family and saw Qin Huairu crying with tears on her face, and could faintly hear sobbing sounds.

Sha Zhu was heartbroken at that moment.

I thought, Sister Qin must need someone to comfort her at this time.

So Sha Zhu couldn't sit still anymore, so he stood up and went to Jia's house.

But as soon as he reached the door, he ran into Yi Zhonghai.

Yi Zhonghai asked, "Zhu Zi, where are you going?"

"Uncle, why do you look so much older?"

When Sha Zhu saw Yi Zhonghai's haggard face, he couldn't help but be shocked.

"Alas, isn't it because of Dongxu's matter?"

Yi Zhonghai sighed: "Dongxu is young, not only has good character, but is also filial. I didn't expect..."

"you do not say!"

Sha Zhu also sighed: "Yesterday we were drinking together and discussing how to deal with Cao Liang!"

"Pillar."

Upon hearing this, Yi Zhonghai hurriedly scolded him. Sha Zhu also knew that he had said the wrong thing and quickly shut up.

Yi Zhonghai then continued, "I came here this time to take care of Dongxu's funeral. You go and help cook."

Although funerals are not popular these days, they still require help, and setting up one or two tables is a must.

"this is necessary."

Sha Zhu nodded and said, "But this is the money for buying vegetables."

Yi Zhonghai thought about it and felt that if he asked Jia Zhang to pay, it would definitely be impossible.

So he took out ten yuan from his pocket and handed it to Sha Zhu, "Use these to buy vegetables first. If it's not enough, you can add some more first."

"Row."

Sha Zhu responded.

"Alas, with Dongxu gone, the Jia family is left with only an orphan and a widow. Huairu is pregnant with a baby. Zhuzi, please help them if you can. We are neighbors."

Yi Zhonghai sighed.

"It's all my duty. When Brother Dongxu was still around, I didn't help him either."

"Okay then. I still have to go inform the other people in the hospital. I'll leave first."

"Take care, uncle."

...

Cao family.

The family is having dinner.

Chen Huilan said to the two younger ones, "You two, don't go to the middle courtyard these two days. Do you hear me?"

"know."

Xiao Ming replied: "We usually play in the front yard and rarely go to the middle yard."

Yaya asked curiously, "Mom, I heard from Jie Di that Banggeng's father is dead, is that right?"

Chen Huilan scolded: "Little kid, stop asking about these things. Just do what you should do normally and don't go to the Intermediate Court for the next two days."

"Oh."

Yaya nodded obediently.

"Alas, I heard today that there was an accident in the workshop and someone was caught in the machine. The scene was very scary. I didn't expect it to be Jia Dongxu."

Chen Huilan sighed, "There are only two adults left in the Jia family now, and Qin Huairu is pregnant. The Jia family will have a hard time in the future."

Cao Liang picked up a piece of meat and gave it to Chen Huilan, saying with a smile, "What's so difficult about it? After Dad left, didn't you raise the three of us all by yourself? Besides, the Jia family is not short of money, so what's so difficult about it?"

"Are you not short of money? The Jia family only has one person's ration, and they usually have to buy food at a negotiated price, so there shouldn't be much money left, right?"

Chen Huilan asked curiously, then took a bite of the meat and frowned, "Liangzi, what kind of meat is this? Why does it smell weird?"

Cao Liang laughed and said, "This meat is very rare. If I hadn't gotten some by accident, you probably wouldn't be able to eat it in your lifetime!"

"What nonsense are you talking about!"

Chen Huilan rolled her eyes at him and said angrily, "I, your mother, have lived in the countryside since I was a child. To be honest, I have eaten all kinds of meat."

"What about tiger meat?"

Chen Huilan exclaimed: "Is this tiger meat?"

Cao Liang nodded: "My friend gave me some, I gave some to Gangzi and the others, and I brought the rest back to try."

"No wonder."

Chen Huilan said: "I heard that tiger meat is very unpalatable. Now it tastes not only dry but also has a weird smell. It is really not tasty."

Cao Liang also nodded. He had just tasted it and it was indeed not tasty.

He even added some extra ingredients, but the weird taste was still there.

No wonder Chi Hu would dislike it.

"Liangzi, you just said that the Jia family is not short of money. What do you mean?" Chen Huilan brought up the previous topic again.

Cao Liang took a bite of the steamed bun and said slowly, "When Old Jia left, it was also due to an accident. The factory gave him a lot of pension. I also heard that since Jia Dongxu started working, he has given Jia Zhangshi five yuan in pension money every month. Do you think the Jia family is short of money?"

Chen Huilan was surprised and said, "Jia Dongxu has been working for so many years, if you calculate it this way, he must have made several hundred yuan."

"Too much to say."

Cao Liang shook his head and said, "Mrs. Jia Zhang has not touched the old Jia's pension at all. I estimate that the Jia family has at least one thousand yuan now. Jia Dongxu will definitely have more pensions in the future. Tell me, is the Jia family really short of money?"

Chen Huilan was shocked and said, "No, it's much more than my family's savings."

Upon hearing this, Cao Liang smiled and said nothing.

It’s okay if it’s more than his.

Not counting the gold for now, he is already a millionaire now, so naturally he is no match for the Jia family.

He was just afraid that Chen Huilan would be soft-hearted and couldn't help but help the Jia family, so he gave her a warning in advance.

"Liangzi, are you home?"

At this time, Yi Zhonghai's voice came from outside the door.

Chen Huilan frowned: "What is he doing here?"

"It must be because of Jia Dongxu's matter. I'll go out and take a look."

After Cao Liang finished speaking, he stood up and walked out.

"I will go with you."

Chen Huilan was worried and followed him out.

When Cao Liang first saw Yi Zhonghai, he was secretly shocked.

Yi Zhonghai seemed to have aged ten years in an instant.

But it's normal.

After all, Jia Dongxu was the elderly person he had carefully trained and taken care of, and he had spent a lot of manpower and material resources.

Now that we have returned to the time before liberation, the person who is probably suffering the most, besides Jia Zhangshi and Qin Huairu, is Yi Zhonghai.

Cao Liang asked knowingly, "I'm eating. What's the matter?"

Seeing that Cao Liang didn't even call him "uncle", Yi Zhonghai was very dissatisfied, but business was more important now, so he said bluntly: "Ask someone to take a leave tomorrow morning and come to help deal with Dongxu's funeral."
