Siheyuan: Enemy spies are captured every time
Chapter 52 The First Snow of the Year
Ever since Qin Huairu became a quality inspector, Jia Zhang has become confused again.
He would always find an old lady to criticize Yi Zhonghai.
"Let me tell you, auntie, if Huairu of our family didn't get the first-level worker award, it must be the fault of your Laoyi. Your Laoyi should be held responsible." Jia Zhang kept talking to auntie.
"Sister-in-law, people should have conscience and be reasonable. How does our Lao Yi usually help your family..." The aunt looked at Jia Zhang speechlessly.
"Just that little bit of cornmeal? In the middle of the night..."
"That's right, Qin is so serious about his quality inspection work. If he is still not rated as a first-class worker, I think it is the responsibility of the uncle."
Hua Chengyu and Xu Damao pushed their bicycles to the main courtyard and just happened to hear Jia Zhang's words. Xu Damao praised her.
"Look at Secretary Xu. He is different after becoming a leader. He finally learns to speak human language. He is not like some guys who are in charge of personnel but don't do their job." Jia Zhang raised her head and praised Xu Damao.
Good man, you’re such a hermaphrodite!
During this period, Jia Zhang was always muttering behind his back, but when Hua Chengyu turned around, she was silent.
"Ms. Jia Zhang, we didn't provoke you, so don't make things difficult for yourself!" Xu Damao said harshly.
"Hmph! Xu Damao, I have never seen anyone like you. Every day it's either you or your wife. You serve tea in the morning and deliver meals in the evening. Are you going to send your wife over in a few days? You are a little useless guy, a hen that doesn't lay eggs!" Jia Zhang said with a sneer.
"Ms. Jia Zhang, you are looking for death!" Xu Damao's eyes flashed with ferocity.
"Brother Damao, don't be impulsive!" Hua Chengyu was frightened by Xu Damao's eyes. This Xu Damao wanted to kill someone, so Hua Chengyu grabbed him.
"Xu Damao, what are you doing!" Jia Zhang took a step back and stood behind the aunt: "Xu Damao, you little bastard, be careful or I will let our Huairu make you fail and put you back into your mother's belly to be reborn!"
"Brother Hua, don't pull me. I must beat this damn old woman to death today!" Xu Damao's face looked very ugly, and he was feeling very angry. Every word this damn old woman said was more unpleasant than the last.
"Don't be impulsive!" Hua Chengyu held Xu Damao tightly.
"Come on, hit me, you who have wiped out the Xu Damao family are cowards!" Jia Zhang stood behind the aunt and jumped up and shouted.
"Sister-in-law, please say less!" The aunt was helpless.
Since Qin Huairu became a quality inspector, Jia Zhangshi has become more arrogant. She would say to people: Let my Huairu inspect you...
"You still have this request? This is the first time I've seen it after I turned 20. Go ahead... Pikachu, no... Go ahead, Brother Damao!" Hua Chengyu loosened his hand.
Xu Damao almost fell on his butt.
"Da Mao, Brother Hua, now that you're back, why don't you go into the house? What are you talking about with them?" Lou Xiao'e's voice calmed Xu Damao down.
"Moth, this Jia Zhang..."
"This Jia Zhang is crazy, ignore him!" Lou Xiao'e looked at Jia Zhang with disdain.
"You are crazy. You are a small capitalist. None of them are good. When Huairu comes back, I will ask her to check your house to see if you have any capitalist things." Jia Zhang said proudly.
"You are a wolf from Zhongshan. You will become arrogant when you succeed. Jia Zhang, you'd better take care of yourself. Don't lose the job of quality inspector that Qin Huairu got with great difficulty." Hua Chengyu said coldly.
"Pah... Who do you think you are? I'm afraid of you!"
"Mom, please say less." Qin Huairu happened to pass the front yard and heard her mother and Hua Chengyu arguing. She was scared to death. She knew Hua Chengyu's abilities from the workshop.
Just one sentence can transfer her from her current job.
To be honest, she likes her current position very much and cherishes it. Others do spot checks, but she does a full inspection. In addition, she has the highest cultural level in their group.
The future is expected!
This job gave her great satisfaction to her vanity, and even old men were scolded by her several times.
But Hua Chengyu's words just now really scared her.
"Chief Hua, I'm sorry. My mother-in-law is very narrow-minded and offended you. Please be a magnanimous person and don't bear grudges. Don't take it to heart." Qin Huairu apologized repeatedly.
"Qin Huairu, please persuade your mother-in-law and be careful about what she says." He still kindly gave Qin Huairu a reminder.
"I'll remember that, Chief Hua. I will definitely speak well of my mother-in-law." Qin Huairu said gratefully.
"If not, send your mother-in-law back to the countryside!" Hua Chengyu tried to suggest.
Without Jia and Zhang, this courtyard would be half as troubled.
"You little bastard, what do you mean, Qin Huairu, how dare you! Don't forget what you promised me." Jia Zhang jumped up when she heard it. She never wanted to go back to the countryside in her life.
What's more, she can't go back. She is a pitiful person. She was born in a half-open house and her family members were killed in the war.
Life and death do not know!
When you registered, you were thinking about getting the land. With the idea that you would be a bastard if you didn't take advantage of a good deal, you voluntarily gave up your urban household registration. As for where the land was, you didn't even know, but it was very remote anyway.
"Mom, I don't think so. Chief Hua, please, please say less!" Qin Huairu was about to cry out.
delicate and charming!
Behind the window of Jia's house, a sinister look was staring at Hua Chengyu.
"You'd better take care of yourself!" Hua Chengyu looked at Jia Geng coldly.
This kid was lucky. He went to the countryside in 1975 and returned to the city the next year.
This time, Hua Chengyu felt that he had let Bang Geng down because he was not allowed to go to the countryside for ten years to receive re-education from the poor and lower-middle peasants.
This kid is only 8 years old. The youngest person to go to the countryside is 14 years old. There are still seven years left. I have to find a good place for him in advance. While thinking about this, he pushed his bicycle inside.
During this period, the courtyard was relatively quiet.
Before I knew it, it is already late November. The time flies by so fast. The weather is not very good today and the breeze is cold.
"It's going to snow!" The first snow in the city usually falls in early November. It's already late November, so it should be snowing soon.
Hua Chengyu touched the kettle and found that Lou Xiao'e had already boiled three pots of hot water.
Except for the one piece of clothing that he washes himself, Xu Damao and his wife wash the rest of his clothes. This single life is quite comfortable.
He took out the electric blanket and decided to use it tonight.
He prepared a whole TV set and a washing machine. He had already got the tickets from home, especially the TV set. There was too little entertainment at that time, so he had to pretend to be drunk every time to have fun.
But when he felt his pocket, he found that he didn't have enough money. A black and white TV cost 800 yuan, and a hand-crank washing machine cost 700 yuan. It was a luxury, too luxury.
After receiving his salary, plus support from his family and giving food to Xu Damao's family, he still had more than 700 yuan. How poor!
He gave Xu Damao's family 15 yuan and most of the rations every month, including breakfast and dinner. This cost was already very high, as the food expenses for an adult were only five yuan a month.
However, the standard is four dishes, and there is meat basically every other day, which is brought back by Lou Xiao'e from her mother's house. Otherwise, there would not be enough meat tickets.
Living in this era, this is considered the best food standard. Most people can only eat meat during festivals.
"Brother Hua, how about we have hotpot tonight?" Xu Damao walked in just after the house was cleaned up.
"Okay!" Hua Chengyu said with a smile.
You want to get me drunk again? Don’t worry, I’ll get drunk on my own!
After a while, a kerosene stove was brought up and a fire was lit underneath.
Because of the Great Leap Forward in Steel Production, not many families can produce copper products now.
I didn’t expect that Xu Damao’s home had such good things.
Two meat dishes and two vegetable dishes, lamb with cabbage for lunch, etc.
"This is DeZhuang's secret soup base, which is very rare. Brother, you are in for a treat today." Lou Xiao'e said as she fiddled with the flames.
DeZhuang’s soup base?
The best hot pot in the world that even the emperor praised? Lou Bancheng's family was already in such a state, yet they could still get so many good things.
It really deserves to be called Lou Bancheng!
If this happened in later generations, he would at least be the richest man in the city, and if things went wrong, he might even be the richest man in the country or Asia.
The steel mill is only part of his family's business.
He owns shares in Bianyifang, Quanjude, department stores and banks.
This yard used to belong to their family, and they have more than ten yards like this.
Later, all of it was handed over, and the other part was converted into cash and taken to Hong Kong by Lou Xiao'e's elder brother Lou Yi.
But most of the property is still in Sijiu City! Lou Bancheng used half of the Lou family to gain some reputation, and let Lou Xiao'e marry Xu Mao to reconcile the situation.
The marriage of Xu Damao and Lou Xiao'e could be made into a 100-episode TV series in later generations, which was a realistic drama of a servant's child marrying the daughter of his employer.
Xu Damao is definitely the male lead.
Lou Yi was born to the first wife, but she died during childbirth. Later, Lou Bancheng married Lou Tan, a woman from a declining family, who was also the daughter of the only heir of the authentic Tan family.
This is also one of the reasons why Lou Xiao'e wanted to reconcile with Sha Zhu in the original drama.
Inheriting Tan’s cuisine!
"Eat, brother!" Zheng Damao picked up a piece of mutton roll for Hua Chengyu.
"Well, eat!" Hua Chengyu took a bite.
Spicy and fragrant...Yucheng improved the taste, it is not so spicy, and it is better than the DeZhuang hotpot he had eaten in later generations. It may be because the beef and mutton of this era did not have additives.
"Come on, brother, let's go together. Thank you for your care during this period of time." Xu Damao picked up the wine glass, clinked it with Hua Chengyu, and drank it all in one gulp.
"Mutual, mutual..." Hua Chengyu looked at Xu Damao meaningfully and drank it all in one gulp.
"I heard that there was a fight in the south?"
"You don't need to hear about this, everyone knows it. Don't you see that our production tasks have become much heavier?"
This is not news, and the mainstream media only mentioned it briefly.
Has the counterattack begun? It should be over soon.
This self-defense counterattack almost turned into a war of annihilation. It only took three months from the official start to the end, and we reached the enemy's capital.
This is outrageous.
No one dared to publicize it. All the commanders and fighters in the battle had not thought of it, and most of them kept silent about it for fear of being accused of bragging.
"Well, do you think we can win?" We are all people who have lived through that era and we really don't want to fight again.
"We've already won!"
In a few days, the mainstream media will report the victory of this battle, and Hua Chengyu will not be considered a leak.
"Won the battle? Our country is too powerful!" Xu Damao did not doubt Hua Chengyu's words.
Hua Chengyu nodded.
"Come, let's toast to victory together..." He took the initiative to raise a glass.
Then, the three of them chatted about some irrelevant topics.
It was mainly Xu Damao who said that Hua Chengyu wanted to get drunk as soon as possible...
"It's snowing..." Hua Chengyu glanced out the window in a daze.
"The first snow in the city of Beijing came later than usual," Xu Damao echoed.
"The No. 2 bus parked on the eighth floor..." Hua Chengyu couldn't help but sing it out.
"Ugh..." Lou Xiao'e felt nauseous and almost vomited.
"Ezi, what's wrong with you?"
"sister in law……"
"Ugh..." Lou Xiao'e couldn't help it and ran to the spittoon to spit out what she had just eaten.
"Ezi, are you sick? Are you feeling uncomfortable anywhere? Come and drink some hot water to calm yourself down." Xu Damao hurriedly picked up the cup of water and handed it to Lou Xiao'e.
"Maybe... Ugh, the weather changed and I caught a cold!" Lou Xiao'e felt her stomach churning and she vomited again, then felt much better.
He took the water from Xu Damao and started drinking it.
"Don't be afraid of catching a cold. You'll be fine after sweating it out. It's more effective than any medicine." Hua Chengyu said meaningfully.
"Come on, Ezi, eat some more." Xu Damao picked up a piece of beef and placed it in front of Lou Xiao'e.
"Ugh..." Lou Xiao'e waved her hands and turned her head away, feeling a little better.
"I won't eat it anymore. I feel sick just looking at this!"
"Then sister-in-law, you should go to bed early. I..." Hua Chengyu was about to get up and say goodbye.
"Don't worry, you guys eat your food and don't worry about me. I just need to rest for a while!" Lou Xiao'e stopped them.
"Yes, brother, let's eat ours, come, drink..." The goal has not been achieved yet? How could Xu Damao let him leave?
