Siheyuan: Starting from 1958

Although Qin Huairu really wanted to marry He Yuzhu, so that she would have someone to help her support Banggeng and the others.

But in order to avoid causing dissatisfaction with Yi Zhonghai and Jia Zhangshi, and to avoid being accused of shamelessness by the residents in the yard, she had no choice but to refuse.

"Let go first."

"Sister knows you want a wife..."

"I have a cousin in my hometown who is prettier than me. How about I call her to the courtyard and introduce her to you?"

"If you marry my cousin, we will be even closer..."

"But before you get married, I will take care of you as I should...what do you think?"

When He Yuzhu heard Qin Huairu say that her cousin was more beautiful, he was immediately attracted to her.

He quickly let go of Qin Huairu, stared at her expectantly and asked, "Sister Qin..."

"You didn't lie to me..."

In order to calm He Yuzhu down and calm his anger, Qin Huairu could only follow He Yuzhu's words and said, "When have I ever lied to you..."

"When I'm done with this busy period, I'll go back to my hometown and bring my cousin to the courtyard to introduce her to you."

"My cousin is not only beautiful, but also very virtuous."

"As long as you like her, I promise to persuade her to be your wife."

"But Zhuzi, you can't forget Sister Qin after you get married..."

"Sister Qin is raising three children by herself and also has to take care of her mother-in-law. Without your help, she would have died long ago."

When He Yuzhu heard Qin Huairu introduce a wife to him, the anger that had been pent up in his heart completely disappeared.

He misses his wife so much.

Especially when he saw Xu Damao and Lou Xiao'e walking together in the yard every day, he wished he could immediately marry a wife prettier than Lou Xiao'e.

He immediately patted his chest and promised: "Sister Qin..."

"If you really introduce your cousin to me as my daughter-in-law, you will be my sister Qin from now on. If He Yuzhu eats, the Jia family will eat."

"Besides, Banggeng is my godson. When I marry your cousin, Banggeng will also be my wife's godson. Even if we starve ourselves, we won't let Banggeng and his family starve."

"Don't worry..."

After hearing He Yuzhu's assurance, Qin Huairu finally breathed a sigh of relief, and then began to soak He Yuzhu's feet.

…………

A canteen in a steel rolling mill.

Looking at the busy crowd in front of him, Wang Dong suddenly said: "Dashan, Longfei, the two of you come out for a moment!"

"Master, what's the matter?" Tang Dashan and Huang Longfei immediately put down their work and appeared in front of Wang Dong together.

"You all know what happened in the yard last night, right?" Wang Dong asked the two of them without any further ado.

"I heard...it seems to be a farce staged by Yi Zhonghai, Qin Huairu and He Yuzhu..." Tang Dashan spoke first.

Huang Longfei lived in the backyard and was the first to rush to the ear room. No one knew the whole process better than him. He shook his head and replied: "I don't think so..."

"From the conversation between He Yuzhu and Qin Huairu last night, the scratches on Qin Huairu's face were definitely not caused by He Yuzhu."

"And He Yuzhu doesn't look like he's lying."

"At the beginning, he said that he heard Qin Huairu shouting for help as soon as he entered the room, and he was so frightened that he didn't even touch Qin Huairu."

"Then he changed his story and said that the scratches on Qin Huairu's face were caused by himself."

"The two statements are completely different."

"But I believe more in what I said before."

"There must be a conspiracy here that we don't know about."

Wang Dong nodded: "I'll tell you the truth." "What happened in the backyard wing last night was not an accident. It was a conspiracy between Qin Huairu and Yi Zhonghai against me."

"I was the one who should have gone to the backyard annex."

"I felt there was a conspiracy, so I wrote a note and asked He Yuzhu to come over."

"The result was actually found out."

"Think about it, if I was the one blocking the backyard room alone, what do you think the outcome would be?
Huang Longfei and Tang Dashan both gasped.

Huang Longfei was shocked and spoke first: "Yi Zhonghai will definitely call the police immediately to prove that Master insulted Qin Huairu and send you to prison."

"What a sinister method..."

Tang Dashan followed up with the conversation: "Master, Yi Zhonghai and Qin Huairu are such bad people."

"How about I find a few people to give them a good beating on their way home."

"Last night's plot was clearly intended to drive you to death. If it succeeds, you will not only lose your job at the steel mill, but you will also be sent to prison."

"no……"

"Giving them a lesson is the least of their worries."

"I'm going to knock their hands off."

"A fitter cannot do without his hands. Without his hands, I don't think Yi Zhonghai can continue to work as a fitter in a steel mill."

Wang Dong looked at Tang Dashan in surprise. He didn't expect that Tang Dashan would be so ruthless when dealing with people, and would hit people on their vitals.

The eighth-level fitter is Yi Zhonghai's steward for survival in the steel rolling mill. If one of Yi Zhonghai's hands were knocked off and he could no longer work as a fitter, it would be more painful than killing him.

Quickly shook his head: "No..."

"These are all illegal things, we can't do them."

"Don't get yourself into this trouble just for these two beasts. It would be a waste of time."

"We are in the kitchen, responsible for the meals of all the workers in the steel mill. It is very easy to deal with two people. There is no need to make a big fuss.

"You two pass it on secretly."

"From now on, when you serve food and dishes to Yi Zhonghai and Qin Huairu, give them the minimum amount possible without violating discipline by shaking the spoon."

"We want to make sure they don't have enough to eat and we want to make sure they have nothing to say. They won't even have any reason to complain to the factory leaders."

"By the way, inform He Yuzhu's team leader that from today onwards, He Yuzhu will no longer be assigned to serve food..."

"Prepare two more large pots of food for him every morning."

"Doesn't he want to take the eighth-level chef exam?"

"I just don't give him the opportunity to learn about cooking, so he can't improve his cooking experience through actual practice. I don't think he can pass the eighth-level chef assessment."

"Do this in secret. You must not let He Yuzhu and Qin Huairu know about it. You must not let them know that I asked you to spread this. Is everything clear?"

Huang Longfei immediately assured: "Master, don't worry..."

"Now most of the chefs and kitchen assistants in the kitchen are our people."

"Since Yi Zhonghai and Qin Huairu dare to offend you, you should be prepared to go hungry at the steel mill."

"Anyway, food is in short supply right now, and many people in the steel mill are hungry. As long as we don't go too far, they won't find any reason to sue us."

Wang Dong nodded and continued: "How are your cooking skills..."

"The exam will be in a few months...When you have time, spend more time cooking and make sure you become proficient at cooking big pot dishes."

"I will strive to pass the tenth-level chef qualification this year and the ninth-level chef qualification next year, so as to catch up with He Yuzhu."

"When there are more level nine chefs in the kitchen, even if Director Yang proposes He Yuzhu to be the canteen monitor, I will have reasons to refuse." (End of this chapter)
