Siheyuan's Silly Pillar has been replaced by someone else
Chapter 436 Cooperation and Competition
"Huairu, Dongxu went out to drink with his friends. Let me tell you something." After returning to the courtyard and seeing Qin Huairu, Yi Zhonghai went over.
This was a legitimate opportunity to get close to Qin Huairu, and the hypocrite would never let it go.
Otherwise, he wouldn't have agreed to let Jia Dongxu go out for a drink so easily.
Qin Huairu just nodded after hearing this. It's nothing for a man to go out and drink. In the courtyard, everyone is usually on guard against the Jia family. Jia Dongxu actually doesn't have many friends, so it's nice to make a few friends outside.
She believed that Yi Zhonghai would not let Jia Dongxu take a detour, and Jia Dongxu would definitely go drinking with someone he could trust.
"Uncle, I got it. I'll tell my mother-in-law later. How's the matter of that silly Zhu being an apprentice in the steel mill going? Did the factory leaders agree?"
Yi Zhonghai grinned and said proudly: "I am a level 7 worker, and Deputy Director Yang will definitely give me face."
Qin Huairu said respectfully: "I knew that the eldest master could do it. You have paid too much for Shazhu. If he doesn't obey you in the future, Dongxu and I will not agree."
Yi Zhonghai laughed: "I am satisfied with you and Dongxu being filial to me in this life. Is Shazhu back? I will go and tell him the good news."
Qin Huairu stopped him with a smile: "Uncle, I think you shouldn't rush to tell him. Wait until he has finished cooking, then you can go over. After hearing the good news, he should at least treat you to a meal."
Yi Zhonghai was very excited. Every day, he smelled the fragrance coming from the He family, and he was craving for it. He said that he didn't care about the dishes cooked by He Yuzhu, but he didn't think so in his heart.
Qin Huairu's idea touched his heart.
"Your idea is good. Although I don't care about his cooking skills, the factory should hire a decent cook. Why not do it today? Let's do it tonight. Let him send some to the old lady and ask her to appreciate his cooking skills.
I will go and tell the old lady the good news."
Yi Zhonghai didn't even go home, but went directly to the backyard. This was an opportunity to show off in front of the deaf old lady, how could a hypocrite miss it.
Qin Huairu smiled complacently, then stopped washing clothes and went straight home.
Jia Zhang looked at her gloomily: "Can you please have some shame? There are so many people coming and going, why are you so close to that bastard Yi Zhonghai?"
Qin Huairu was very confident at this moment. She believed that as long as she told Jia Zhang what she had just said, Jia Zhang would definitely be as happy as her aunt.
"Mom, I'm talking to an old man about serious matters."
Jia Zhang pouted once: "You two have nothing to do. Come on, tell me what the matter is."
Qin Huairu said: "Dongxu drank with his friends, does this count as business?"
Jia Zhang's face was full of disdain: "When men go out to drink, they say everything in one sentence. You came so close and just said this."
Qin Huairu showed a smug look on her face: "Of course it's not this. Dongxu going out to drink is a small matter, but it's not a big deal for our family to eat Shazhu's lunch box."
Jia Zhang squinted at Qin Huairu for a while and said, "What nonsense are you talking about? I would like to eat the lunch box sent by Sha Zhu, but will that bastard lend it to us? Do you have the ability to make him agree?"
Qin Huairu whispered: "If I don't have the ability, I naturally won't say it. Mom, let me tell you, the uncle has already made an agreement with the factory to let Sha Zhu work as an apprentice in the steel rolling mill.
The old man found such a good job for Sha Zhu, shouldn't he respect the old man?
When the time comes, he will listen to whatever the uncle says. That’s what I just said to the uncle.”
Jia Zhang's eyes lit up: "Is this true? This is great. We haven't eaten meat in a long time. That damn bastard Sha Zhu lets three money-losing bastards eat good food at home every day, and never sends any to our family.
I'm going to have a good meal this time.
No, not this time, but every day from now on.
Go find Yi Zhonghai and ask him to tell Sha Zhu to bring us lunch boxes every day. At least two meat dishes."
Qin Huairu was willing to do what Jia Zhang said, but he was not stupid and knew that the food in the steel mill was not that good. People who eat in restaurants have money, so it is normal to have meat. In the canteen of the steel mill, it is good to have some minced meat, where can you get two meat dishes. "Mom, the steel mill is not Emei Hotel, the food is much worse than that of Emei Hotel."
Hearing this, Jia Zhang was somewhat dissatisfied: "Let Sha Zhu figure it out himself. He ate so many lunch boxes before and didn't send them to our family. Now he should compensate us.
By the way, why not ask him to go to Emei Hotel after get off work and get two?"
Qin Huairu quickly shook her head: "Mom, don't say that in front of Uncle Yi. Uncle Yi hates Sha Zhu's contact with his master. If you let Sha Zhu continue to go back to Emei Hotel, Aunt Yi will hate our family to death."
Jia Zhang said stubbornly, "He dares."
Although she spoke tough words, Jia Zhang's attitude had already softened.
She was not stupid, so she knew that the Jia family had to rely on Yi Zhonghai to live in the courtyard. It would not be good for the Jia family to anger Yi Zhonghai.
Seeing that Jia Zhang had stopped making a fuss, Qin Huairu went to coax Banggeng and told him that there would be meat to eat soon.
In the backyard, the deaf old lady was very satisfied when she heard Yi Zhonghai's proposal.
"Zhong Hai, you've thought it through very well. We should really try Sha Zhu's cooking first. If his cooking is not good enough, I can go and plead for him. Don't let Xiao Yang fire him."
Yi Zhonghai smiled and said, "Old lady, we are thinking alike. It just so happens that tomorrow is a rainy day and we will have a holiday. As usual, Sha Zhu will bring back a few more lunch boxes. I will ask him to send some to you later."
The deaf old lady was a little worried about Yi Zhonghai, so she said, "No need to ask him to send me. Ask him to carry me over, and I will eat at his house."
Yi Zhonghai was somewhat reluctant. What would happen to the Jia family now that the deaf old lady had passed away?
"Old lady, you are the ancestor of the courtyard, how can you go there in person?"
The deaf old lady said, "It is precisely because I am the ancestor of the courtyard that I should do this. We have helped Sha Zhu so much, and we must let people know. If he comes to carry me, it means that he acknowledges that he is my eldest grandson.
If he disobeys you in the future, I can teach him a lesson for you.
Don't blame me for not reminding you. Shazhu is a fool. You found him a job, he owes you a favor, so he will listen to you.
But that doesn't mean he will listen to Jia Zhang.
Don't forget that during the New Year, Jia Zhang scolded Tiezhu and drove him away.
You and Shazhu have just reconciled, you can’t let your relationship fall out again because of Jia Zhang, a troublemaker.”
Yi Zhonghai couldn't find a rebuttal for a moment, and he was not sure that Jia Zhang would not curse. To be on the safe side, he decided to listen to the deaf old lady.
He was not worried that the Jia family would not have enough to eat. At most, he could ask He Yuzhu to cook more and send it to the Jia family.
The deaf old lady was very satisfied when she saw Yi Zhonghai compromise.
They finally found a breakthrough from He Yuzhu, so they must not give up easily. Whoever can control He Yuzhu first will have an extra trump card in his hand.
Yi Zhonghai was too partial to the Jia family, and often put the old lady at a disadvantage.
The deaf old lady had long wanted to find someone to check and balance Yi Zhonghai, and He Yuzhu was the person she chose. With He Yuzhu's support, she could become the legitimate ancestor.
She will not hand He Yuzhu over to Yi Zhonghai until a hundred years later.
Compared to the deaf old lady, Yi Zhonghai's skills were still a little shallow. His reaction was a little slow, but he didn't expect that the moment the news was confirmed, there would be competition between him and the deaf old lady. (End of this chapter)
