Siheyuan's Silly Pillar has been replaced by someone else

Things went smoothly and Yi Zhonghai walked with the wind.

Jia Dongxu was not in the mood to work in the workshop, just waiting for Yi Zhonghai. The moment he saw Yi Zhonghai, he didn't even turn off the machine and ran over immediately.

It was a porter passing by who closed the door for him out of fear of an accident.

"Master, how is it, did Deputy Director Yang agree?"

Yi Zhonghai looked around and said, "Can you be more steady? Is there anything I can't accomplish?"

Jia Dongxu was pleasantly surprised: "Great, I have secured a place in this year's assessment."

Yi Zhonghai snorted: "If you are not afraid that others will know, just keep shouting."

Only then did Jia Dongxu behave himself.

However, he was only being honest on the surface. He felt that with this favor, there would be no problem with the first-level worker assessment. Since there would be no problem, why did he work so hard?

"Jia Dongxu, don't forget to turn off the machine when you leave your post."

Normally, relying on Yi Zhonghai's power, Jia Dongxu looked down on these porters and spoke to them with a haughty tone.

Jia Dongxu was happy today, and his tone was much kinder: "Lao Liang, I see, you were the one who turned off the machine for me just now, thank you very much."

The man Jia Dongxu called Lao Liang was not very old, only 28 years old. However, he was unlucky and could not find a master, so he could only work as a porter.

Seeing that Jia Dongxu had a good attitude, Lao Liang wanted to have more contact with him.

If he could become Yi Zhonghai's disciple through Jia Dongxu, it would be a change of fate for him.

Yi Zhonghai really does not accept disciples. Those who want to learn skills from Yi Zhonghai will leave on their own initiative after a period of time.

But once you become Yi Zhonghai's disciple, you will be treated very well.

Needless to say, when Jia Dongxu got married, Yi Zhonghai gave him a sewing machine.

Take Wu Tiezhu for example. After he became Yi Zhonghai's disciple, he no longer had to do odd jobs and was even given a house.

"You look so happy today, maybe you are about to give birth to your son?"

Jia Dongxu said with a smile: "My wife is only two months pregnant."

Lao Liang said: "Since she is not your wife, what is it that makes you so happy?"

Jia Dongxu took back the words that were on the tip of his tongue. He couldn't tell anyone about cheating.

"Don't ask, it's a good thing anyway."

Seeing that he didn't say anything, Lao Liang was afraid of offending him and didn't dare to ask more. He just used the same tricks he usually played with his friends to communicate with Jia Dongxu.

"You have a good thing, but you don't even celebrate it."

Jia Dongxu looked a little embarrassed: "Well, my family is not well off..."

Lao Liang smiled and said, "It's because it's not good that we want to celebrate."

As a mama's boy, Jia Dongxu didn't know much about what was going on outside. Apart from treating people to a meal, he didn't really know many ways to celebrate.

Lao Liang motioned for him to stick his head over and explained in a low voice: "If I encounter something happy, I will find a place to play cards with others. Take advantage of the good luck and make a few more. Do you want to join me?"

Jia Dongxu hesitated. During the two days he was locked up, he also saw the people he lived with gambling. He didn't dare to join in, so he hid by the toilet and watched.

"You said gambling, that's not good! I heard that people who gamble are not good."

Lao Liang said nonchalantly: "Those are people who are addicted to gambling. I am different from them. I gamble a few times when I am lucky, make some money and leave.

Think about it, with so many gamblers losing money, there will naturally be people who make money. We are the group of people who make money."

Jia Dongxu was somewhat moved and asked tentatively: "Really?"

"Of course it's true. When to gamble and how much to gamble is up to you. If you think you can make money, then gamble. If you can't make money, then don't gamble. What's the problem? Only those who are brainless will get more excited the worse their luck is. Don't you think such people are fools?"

Jia Dongxu nodded and said, "Isn't he just a fool? He was obviously at a disadvantage, but he still rushed forward."

Seeing this, Lao Liang asked again: "Then are you going? I'll take you to a place where I guarantee you can make money."

Jia Dongxu reached into his pocket and felt the money in it, thinking that he only had 30,000 yuan, so even if he lost, it wouldn't be much.

"Okay, I'll go with you."

After get off work, Jia Dongxu found an excuse to drink with friends and asked for leave from Yi Zhonghai.

At this time, Yi Zhonghai was thinking about how to fool He Yuzhu and didn't pay any attention to him.

"It's okay for you to drink, but you have to be careful about those people. You must not associate with those who are not filial."

"I know, Master. I was just drinking with Lao Liang from our workshop and his friends. He is in charge of the handling work. If I get along well with him, he will give me some easy-to-process workpieces, and I can produce less waste."

Yi Zhonghai did not stop him. As long as they were from the workshop, they would not be able to cause any trouble.

"Drink less. Huairu is pregnant and it's not convenient for her to take care of you."

……

In the courtyard, Xu Damao kept staring at the deaf old lady and Qin Huairu all day.

The deaf old lady is easy to deal with, she basically doesn't go out.

In the whole courtyard, only the auntie would chat with her. When other people saw her, they immediately became speechless.

His main purpose was to keep an eye on Qin Huairu.

Qin Huairu was so sensitive that she soon realized that Xu Damao was secretly staring at her. She thought Xu Damao was attracted by her charm and felt a little proud.

While Jia Zhang was not paying attention, she walked closer to Xu Damao and said, "You didn't go out today, why are you staring at me?"

Xu Damao said lustfully, "Of course it's because Sister Qin is pretty. Sister Qin, look, it's warm now and the weather outside is warm. Isn't it time to do what you promised me last winter? I'll wait for you in that shabby house over there tomorrow."

Qin Huairu rolled her eyes at him and said, "Look at how impatient you are. When have I failed to fulfill my promise? But look at my belly. The baby is not even three months old. Aren't you worried about hurting the baby?"

Xu Damao stared at Qin Huairu's belly with regret, secretly sighing that this child came at the wrong time.

If he had known that Qin Huairu would be pregnant, he would not have given her the money. That was his pocket money that he had saved for a long time.

"Can you not be serious about this?"

Qin Huairu's wallet was also empty, so she wanted to test Xu Damao: "You are so young, why are you like this? You just want to take advantage of me, don't you see that I don't have enough food to eat?"

Xu Damao had little experience, so he didn't think too much and said, "Sister Qin, I don't have any money in my pocket right now. I'll lend it to you when I have money."

Qin Huairu heard that he was a poor guy. How could a poor guy take advantage of others?

"Can't you borrow some from Sha Zhu? His salary is not low now!"

Xu Damao said, "How much can he earn as an apprentice? Sister Qin, you asked Sha Zhu in the morning, and now you ask Sha Zhu again. Why are you trying to scheme against him again?"

Qin Huairu snorted: "Who do you think I am? If I hadn't been unlucky, I wouldn't have tried to please him. I asked you to find out why he doesn't like me. Why don't you care at all?"

Xu Damao said, "I asked around for you, because your family is close to the eldest uncle. The eldest uncle often schemes against Sha Zhu, and he's worried about being cheated by your family."

There was a hint of smugness in Qin Huairu's eyes, which was caught by Xu Damao. He decided to strike while the iron was hot and get more information out of Qin Huairu.

But time was not on his side. Suddenly, Jia Zhang's scolding was heard in the Jia family's house. Qin Huairu left Xu Damao and went home.

Xu Damao kicked the stones on the ground and cursed: "Damn old woman, she always ruins my plans at the critical moment." (End of this chapter)
