Siheyuan: A pioneer of morality

For this meal, Sha Zhu prepared 4 dishes, 2 meat dishes and 2 vegetable dishes, and the main dish was steamed buns made of 200g flour.

With the joint efforts of several people, the 4 dishes were quickly cleared.

Yan Jiecheng was the most exaggerated, and even the soup left on the plate was dipped into his mouth with the steamed buns.

After He Yushui finished eating, he started to clean up the plates very tactfully.

Seeing Zhou Jianjun was about to get up to help, He Yushui hurriedly stopped him and said, "Let me do it, brother Jianjun, just consider it as a thank you for treating me to delicious food."

Seeing this, Zhou Jianjun did not give in, and sat down on the stool again, and said to Sha Zhu, "Brother Zhuzi, you are 24 years old and have been working for several years. Why don't you think about finding a wife to live with?"

Sha Zhu smiled and said, "No hurry, isn't it because I haven't met the right one yet?"

Seeing that the two began to talk about finding a wife, Liu Guangqi and Yan Jiecheng immediately became interested. Both of them have reached adulthood, and it is time to find a job and a wife.

Among the younger generation in the courtyard, Jia Dongxu is the oldest, and he has been married for a long time and has a child. Banggeng is now 7 years old and will go to school soon.

Among the remaining young people, Shazhu is the oldest, followed by Zhou Jianguo. They all want to see what kind of wives these two can find.

"Don't talk about me, Jianjun, have you finished all the things you did at the street office today?" Shazhu said embarrassedly.

"I have done it, and I got back the grain book and other things. I have also decided on a job, as a buyer in the steel mill." Zhou Jianjun said, and began to pass out cigarettes.

The Daqianmen with a handle is usually not seen by several people. After getting it in their hands, they first put it under their noses to smell it, and then reluctantly light it.

"Brother Jianjun is still generous, and he always smokes with a handle." Yan Jiecheng complimented.

Liu Guangqi didn't say anything, but his eyes also revealed envy.

"Purchaser? Are you inheriting your father's job? Don't soldiers usually go to the security department after they are discharged?" Sha Zhu asked curiously.

As soon as Sha Zhu asked the question, Liu Guangqi and Yan Jiecheng pricked up their ears. They had always been thinking about the extra job quota in Zhou Jianjun's family. When they heard the news about the job, they couldn't help but feel nervous.

"No, this job was assigned to me after I retired from the army."

Zhou Jianjun had just finished speaking when there was a knock on the door.

Several people were very surprised. Who came to visit at this time?

Zhou Jianjun opened the door and saw that it was Yi Zhonghai.

In fact, Yi Zhonghai had been staring at the situation in the yard after dinner. When he saw He Yushui coming out of Zhou Jianjun's house with dishes and washing them by the sink, he couldn't wait to come to the door.

He had already talked to the Jia family about the extra job in Zhou Jianjun's family.

The mother and son of the Jia family and Qin Huairu were all very envious of this position. As long as Zhou Jianjun agreed to give it to them, his family would become a dual-income family.

Getting this job position has many additional benefits for the Jia family. As long as Qin Huairu has a job, she can change her rural household registration to urban household registration, so that the monthly quota of the Jia family will increase.

And it's not just Qin Huairu. Under the current policy, the household registration of children follows the mother, which is why many people are unwilling to marry rural wives.

After Zhou Jianjun invited Yi Zhonghai to sit down at the table, he asked: "Uncle, you come here at this time, what's the matter?"

Yi Zhonghai did not answer directly, but said to Sha Zhu and others: "Sha Zhu, go back with Guangqi and Jie Cheng first, I have something to talk to Jianjun."

Although the three people were unhappy, they had no choice but to get up and say goodbye because Yi Zhonghai had always been "highly respected" in the courtyard.

After they all left, Yi Zhonghai slowly said, "Jianjun, have you finished all the things today? Have you decided on the job?"

When Zhou Jianjun heard this, his heart skipped a beat and he thought, "This old Deng is really here for my family's job."

"Uncle, everything is done and the job is settled. I will start working tomorrow as a buyer in the steel mill." Zhou Jianjun said with a smile.

His face was filled with joy, and there was no other distraction.

"That's good, that's good." Yi Zhonghai fiddled with it for a few words, then looked at Zhou Jianjun and said, "Jianjun, is this position assigned to you after you were transferred to civilian work, or did you inherit your father's?"

"It was assigned after I retired from the army. My father's job position has long been gone." Zhou Jianjun didn't intend to waste time with Yi Zhonghai, and directly spoke to him to stop thinking about it.

"Ah?"

Yi Zhonghai exclaimed, stood up from the stool, and asked nervously: "How could it be gone?"

Zhou Jianjun sighed and said slowly: "Uncle, the original loveYou know what happened. My parents are gone, and I am the only one left at home. My choice at that time was either to join the army or to inherit my father's position in the factory. "

"To be honest, at that time, I didn't want to go to the factory because I was reminded of him."

"I used my father's job to exchange for a place in the army. Anyway, I will be assigned a job after returning from the army, so I won't lose anything."

Zhou Jianjun's words were true and false. The actual situation was that the position was sold by the original body to Director Wang.

Although the original body was dull, he still understood the twists and turns here. After returning from the army, he would definitely be assigned a job, and if he kept the position, it would definitely attract the covetousness of people in the hospital.

So, after thinking it over again and again, the original body sold the position. Anyway, it was sold to Director Wang's son, and he made a lot of money, and he also earned an extra favor from Director Wang.

"Is that so!" Yi Zhonghai said regretfully.

"Uncle, there is nothing we can do about it. It's too difficult to get a place in the army. "Zhou Jianjun also pretended to be regretful.

Yi Zhonghai recovered his lost mood, showed an ugly smile on his face, and said: "It's good, Jianjun, you will work hard in the factory in the future."

"When you are well-off, help the poor families in the courtyard."

Zhou Jianjun felt sick to death when he heard Yi Zhonghai's words, but still smiled and said: "That's for sure, serve the people!"

"Okay, okay!" Yi Zhonghai said three good words in a row, and then continued: "Then I won't disturb you to rest, you should rest early, tomorrow is the first day of work, don't be late."

"Thank you, uncle. "Zhou Jianjun replied.

The second battle between the two foxes, one big and one small, ended with Yi Zhonghai's complete defeat.

At this time, Yi Zhonghai felt very uncomfortable, twice in a row.

The first time was for the house, this time for the job, and he failed to get any advantage from Zhou Jianjun both times. Zhou Jianjun's approach was impeccable, which made him feel even more uncomfortable.

After Yi Zhonghai left, He Yushui came back with the bowls and chopsticks. She looked at Yi Zhonghai's back curiously and asked Zhou Jianjun: "Brother Jianjun, what are you doing here?"

"Nothing, Yushui is frozen, right? Come, warm your hands before going back."

As Zhou Jianjun said, he held He Yushui's hands and led her to the stove.

He Yushui lowered her head, her face flushed to the root of her neck.

She looked up at Zhou Jianjun carefully and found that he seemed to have no other thoughts, so she slowly returned to normal.
