The beginning of Siheyuan starts with refusing to bring lunch boxes

When they arrived at the middle courtyard, Laundry Chicken was very dedicated and greeted He Yuzhu as usual.

When He Yuzhu returned home, He Yushui had already prepared dinner. Song Xiaomei was also there. Today, He Yushui made fried duck eggs with green peppers and shredded potatoes with green peppers. Now He Yuzhu's space not only has system rewards, but also has the assistance of breeding space. Now chickens, ducks and geese have started to lay eggs, so He Yuzhu has no shortage of eggs to eat.

"Oh, Yushui, you have great cooking skills. The taste is good, but your knife skills need to be improved." He Yuzhu first praised and then pointed out the shortcomings.

"Brother Zhuzi, Yu Shui's cooking skills are almost as good as my mother's, and this is still not enough," Song Xiaomei said on behalf of her best friend.

"Xiaomei, whether you are a man or a woman, if you want to capture your significant other, capturing her stomach is very useful," He Yuzhu said with a smile.

"Oh~, is this how you caught my sister?" Song Xiaomei said with a smile

He Yuzhu is embarrassed

After dinner, He Yuzhu went out to the front yard.

"Auntie Li, have you eaten?" He Yuzhu asked standing at the door.

Aunt Li, Li Jianguo, and Li Xia had just finished their meal. They looked toward the door and saw He Yuzhu. Li Jianguo stepped out and said, "Brother Zhuzi, we have finished our meal. What are you doing here?"

Aunt Li also came out, "Zhu Zi, what's the matter?"

He Yuzhu nodded, and Aunt Li said, "Then let's go inside and talk."

After entering the house, He Yuzhu looked around the yard and saw no one was paying attention, so he lowered his voice and said, "Aunt Li, Jianguo hasn't found a job yet, right?"

Aunt Li felt a little worried when she heard what He Yuzhu said, "Yes, Jianguo has been waiting for the notice from the street, but it is hard to find a job now, so Jianguo has been looking for a job outside recently."

He Yuzhu nodded and lowered his voice and said, "Aunt Li, I went to ask today and found out that we have a vacancy for an apprentice in our cafeteria."

Aunt Li and Li Jianguo's eyes lit up. Li Jianguo was about to speak, but Aunt Li stopped him and went to close the door. Then she said, "Zhu Zi, really?" Aunt Li was very excited.

After all, the steel mill is a big factory. Working there not only earns you a salary, but it is also easier to find a wife. Li Jianguo is 18 years old this year. If he doesn't have a job, which girl would marry him?

He Yuzhu nodded and said, "But this quota is not free."

Aunt Li was a little worried, but she still gritted her teeth and said, "Zhu Zi, tell me how much it is. Even if we have to sell everything we have, we will pay for it!"

He Yuzhu said, "You just need to pay 150."

Aunt Li was surprised because she heard that it would cost at least 150 yuan outside, but He Yuzhu said it was only . She couldn't believe it.

He Yuzhu continued, "Don't tell anyone about this. I have a good relationship with our director. I asked him for the 150 yuan. He was the one who arranged it. Do you understand?"

Aunt Li and Li Jianguo nodded, but even if it was 150, the Li family couldn't afford it now. But Aunt Li still nodded stubbornly and said, "Okay! Zhuzi, I'll send it to you in a few days!"

He Yuzhu knew the Li family's situation, so he said, "I'll advance the money to you."

Hearing this, Aunt Li and Li Jianguo were surprised. Li Jianguo quickly said, "Brother Zhuzi..."

He Yuzhu interrupted and said, "After you start working, just give me ten yuan a month."

Li Jianguo and Aunt Li were moved

"If Jianguo really wants to go, I can take you in as my apprentice and teach you cooking. Jianguo, what do you think?"

Li Jianguo was confused. How could such a good thing happen?

When Aunt Li saw this, she patted Li Jianguo on the head and said, "Jianguo, kneel down and kowtow!"

Li Jianguo knelt down and was about to kowtow, but He Yuzhu stopped him and said, "Don't kowtow yet. My rule is to observe for three months."

Aunt Li said, "Okay, that's OK, I'll kowtow again in three months."

"On Monday, you and I will go to the steel mill together."

"Okay, Brother Zhuzi"

After He Yuzhu returned home, the Li family

"Mom, tell me, why did Brother Zhuzi help me?"

Aunt Li thought for a moment and said, "I guess it was because you helped Yu Shui that time, Zhuzi, you don't want to owe me a favor. But, Zhuzi's favor to our family this time is much greater than what you have done, Jianguo, our family can't be ungrateful, learn from Zhuzi in the future! Don't let Zhuzi down, understand? Otherwise, you are not my son!"

In fact, He Yuzhu helped Li Jianguo, just as Aunt Li guessed. In addition, the most important thing is that the Li family has a good family tradition. Li Jianguo is a bit like Ma Hua, honest and simple.

On Sunday, He Yuzhu took the two girls to go fishing with Song Xia, and also brought tools for grilling fish. They were going to have a picnic outside today and let Song Xia taste grilled fish.

Life is so beautiful. He Yuzhu is very satisfied with the quiet courtyard, sweet love, and promotion and salary increase. Everything is so beautiful.

While He Yuzhu was living a comfortable life, a rumor about No. 95 Courtyard in Hongxing Street was slowly spreading in Hongxing Street.

"Do you know what happened in Yard 95?"

"What's going on?"

"You don't even know this?"

"The second uncle who is in charge of their courtyard is Yan Bugui's business."

"Of course I know about their family affairs."

At this time, another person who had no idea asked, "Tell me more about it."

"Hey, you have never seen someone who never gets enough of taking advantage. This Yan Bugui, a teacher at Hongxing Primary School, may be a teacher, but he is not good enough," the man said with a pout.

"Why not?"

"He is called the reincarnation of an abacus expert. He doesn't think about teaching students every day, but thinks about how to take advantage of them. He comes home early from school every day and stands at the gate to see who is buying what. The easterly family asks for a scallion, the west family asks for a clove of garlic. His reasons are all very strange: if they haven't bought any cooking materials, it's not worth the trip."

"Ah? That's such a calculation?"

"That's right. People say that Mr. Yan has to go over to taste the saltiness of the food whenever a manure cart passes by his door."

Haha

"Also, their family's meals are distributed by Teacher Yan himself, and everyone gets the same amount. Their family motto is fairness!"

"Really"

"Also, Teacher Yan is really stingy. He eats pickles by the root."

"Oh my, our family is already frugal enough, but I didn't expect there are people who are so stingy."

Chapter 87 Rumors about the Yan Family

"What you are talking about is all outdated," said the middle-aged woman who spoke at the beginning proudly.

The eyes of the other people lit up and they quickly asked, "Do you have any new information?"

These old ladies are very excited about gossip. After all, they just do housework and cook every day, and at most go to the streets to get some manual work. Then, they gossip about other people's affairs. So, gossip is their spiritual food.

"Of course!", the aunt said proudly

"Hurry up and tell me, it's Aunt Zhang," several people urged

"You may not know this, but a few days ago, the eldest son of the Yan family went on a blind date, but the girl didn't agree."

"You didn't agree? Why?"

"Hey, why else? It's just the Yan family deduction, you know? The eldest son of the Yan family is now working in a machine repair factory as an apprentice. He only makes 185 yuan a month, but he has to hand over 10 yuan every month to Yan Bugui and his wife."

"What's the big deal? Many children at home go to work and hand in some money. After all, life is not easy. But for a salary of 185, handing in 10 yuan is a bit too much."

"Yes, the boy in my family now earns 25 yuan a month, and I only let him pay 10 yuan. But I also save this money for him to use after he gets married in a year or two."

"Come on, the money that the Yan family handed over is different from yours. It's the support fee that Yan Bugui and his wife have paid for their retirement over the years," said Aunt Zhang with a look of contempt.

"Ah? Raise the child and wait until the child grows up before asking for his return?" Several people asked in disbelief.

"That's right, and there's more."

"besides!?"

"Yes, every month, the eldest son of the Yan family has to pay 5 yuan for food and rent. He is said to be at home, and he can't eat and live for free."

"Fuck! Are the Yan Bugui couple still human?"

"So, after the Yu family found a matchmaker, they went to ask around and found out who would dare to marry their daughter to a family with such a bad reputation. The next morning, they asked Liu the matchmaker to cancel the marriage."

"Besides, I also heard that Yan Bugui originally planned to make his daughter pay rent and food expenses after she got married."

"Made!"

……

Just like that, rumors about the Yan family began to spread in Hongxing Street...

No matter how these rumors spread or where they came from, He Yuzhu knew nothing about them.

On Monday, Li Jianguo was waiting at the door of He's house early.

"Hey, Jianguo, it's so early."

"Brother Zhuzi, my mother asked me to come earlier so that I can't keep you waiting."

"Well, have you had breakfast?"

"ate"

"Then let's go"

In this way, Li Jianguo followed He Yuzhu out of the courtyard. He Yuzhu took Li Jianguo to the steel rolling mill. Who made Li Jianguo not know how to ride a bike?

Cafeteria

He Yuzhu went to Wang Tiande's office first, gave Wang Tiande a pack of cigarettes, and then stuffed him with 150 yuan. Wang Tiande calmly put the cigarettes and money into the drawer, and then took out a letter of introduction from it, "Zhuzi, take this and take him directly to the personnel department. However, what do you think of the arrangement for this person?"

"A leader is a leader. I plan to put him in the third canteen and I will take care of him," He Yuzhu said with a smile.

"Okay, let's go"

Then, He Yuzhu took Li Jianguo to the Personnel Department to handle the formalities, and then went to the Logistics Department to get the work uniform.

Three canteen kitchen

"Everyone, stop for a moment. This is our new apprentice, Li Jianguo. Please introduce yourself."

"Hello everyone, my name is Li Jianguo, I am 18 years old"

He Yuzhu thought to himself, well, the Ma Hua tradition of simplicity and honesty finally has a successor.

“Everyone should just focus on their own things.”

"Ma Hua, come here"
