Siheyuan: Pretend to be a Pig and Eat the Tiger

Chapter 255: Year-end Summary, Jia Zhang's Abnormality

Time flies, and soon it is the end of December;
The Spring Festival is coming, and the steel mill's year-end work summary is about to begin;
Each department reports the annual outstanding individuals for reward and commendation;
After finishing this, we will enter the Spring Festival holiday and celebrate the New Year happily!
The square in front of the steel mill office building

The factory leaders sat in order, and below sat the representatives of the individuals and departments who were named advanced individuals of the year!
As for other workers, they could only sit in front of the workshop and listen to the radio;

The square has limited space and cannot accommodate all the factory employees!
Even so, they were very excited because the payroll was coming soon and everyone would receive a commemorative prize, so they would not return empty-handed!

"Comrades, first of all, please allow me to represent all the leaders of the steel rolling mill to wish you all a happy New Year in advance;
After today, there will be a four-day holiday to celebrate the Chinese New Year;

Taking advantage of this opportunity, I wrote a couplet to encourage everyone:
I hope you will work hard, stick to your posts, help the factory develop, and create a brilliant career;

I hope every household drinks Ankang, respects and loves each other, inherits good family traditions, and shares a happy life!

Horizontal banner: Hard work pays off

Back to the point, this year, with the joint efforts of all workers, we have exceeded our production targets;

It effectively supported the overall construction and was well received by the leaders;
We have achieved such results thanks to the hard work of our fellow workers.

In daily work, a large number of advanced individuals and departments have emerged;
They are creating extraordinary careers in ordinary jobs;

They use their own hands to create the glory that belongs to everyone;

Please ask Team Leader Yang to announce the outstanding individuals and departments. Everyone is welcome! "

"Quick, quack, quack!"

There was thunderous applause. Although everyone knew the advanced individuals after selection,

But there is no lack of passion from everyone. Without them this year, who can guarantee that they won’t appear on the podium next year?
The meeting was chaired by Lou Zhenhua. This might be his last time to chair a summary meeting of the steel mill!
As for Yang Weimin, everyone is already familiar with him and knows that he is the leader of the advance team;

No one knows what it does specifically, but we know that it has considerable power!

"The steel mill's year-end summary award list:

Three advanced departments: Propaganda Department, Finance Department, and Canteen;
Advanced individuals:

9 people in the workshop: Liu Haizhong, a senior forger in the second workshop...;
10 people from the production management department of the agency: Li Wei from the technical department...;
10 people from the political department of the agency: Qi Zonglin from the Personnel Department...;
10 people from the logistics department of the agency: Cai Qiuyue from the Finance Department...;
We hope that all departments and workers will learn from the departments and individuals who have been awarded as advanced individuals;

Your list will also appear at next year’s summary meeting, over! "

Yang Weimin briefly introduced the advanced departments and individuals and then sat down without giving a lengthy speech!

He knew that what everyone was looking forward to most was the end of the conference, receiving their wages and going home to prepare for the New Year;

At this time, everyone must be complaining in their hearts!
There are few leaders like Yang Weimin who don’t say what needs to be said;
When most leaders speak, if they don’t speak for several hours, it seems that they can’t show their level, which makes people feel frustrated;

This is even more true for some leaders in lower positions, who can talk for an hour without getting to the point!

Soon the commendation meeting was over, and the outstanding individuals were rewarded with ten catties of pork, three feet of flowered cloth, and fifty thousand yuan;
There is only a certificate for the advanced group, and there will be one more advanced individual quota next year. This quota can only be redeemed at the end of next year!
This reward made everyone very envious, especially He Yuzhu and his wife;
The reward for meat alone is ten kilograms, plus the total cash is one hundred thousand, which is enough money for the New Year!

Both husband and wife were awarded as advanced individuals, making others envious!

The rest was to pay the salary and then go home for the holidays. Qiuyue was busy paying the workers, so He Yuzhu went home early to put his things away.
As for Yu Shui, he had a lot of fun playing with his friends. The activity was playing with sandbags, which was done by He Yuzhu!
"Zhu Zi, I heard that both you and your wife were awarded as advanced individuals. The rewards must be quite generous?"

As soon as he arrived at the gate of the compound, Yan Bugui trotted up to He Yuzhu, full of envy!
"Ahem, this all depends on the leadership's keen eyes and sharp vision. You get what you sow!

As long as we work hard and don't cheat, the leaders will not ignore it;
Uncle, although the school has been on holiday for a long time, didn’t you still go to attend the summary meeting?
What reward did you get? Tell me and let me be happy for you! "

Although the students were on holiday, Yan Bugui also went to the school for a meeting this morning, probably to get some odd jobs and to make arrangements for the start of school;
After the Lantern Festival, school will start, and it is necessary to arrange teaching and lesson preparation tasks in advance;
The school uses the Gregorian calendar, which should have been arranged before the winter break;

I don’t know what’s going on, but they went there today too!
As for the steel rolling mill, it uses the lunar year as a year, but after the reform it is estimated that it may adopt the Gregorian year!

When He Yuzhu said this, Yan Bugui looked bitter;
Some rewards were indeed given out today, but he got nothing, so it was all for nothing!
He felt very unconvinced. He had not delayed his teaching tasks for a year and he was already old. So why didn't the leaders consider it?

Or did I accidentally offend my leader? Otherwise, how could he be gone?

Losing face is no big deal, but others have it and he doesn't, which makes him feel like he has missed out on millions, it's so painful!
I heard that Sha Zhu and his wife were both awarded advanced individuals and received generous rewards.

I have been waiting at the door to see if I can take advantage of it;

Who knew that Shazhu had returned, and the canvas bag containing the prizes was tied up quite firmly;

Not to mention getting a share of the meat, there’s not even a chance to grab a bit of the fat!
Not only that, being asked this by Sha Zhu made me feel even more uncomfortable;
But can he still say that he didn't get the reward? Of course he can't say that. He can't lose both face and substance, right?
"Ahem, the reward should be given to the young comrades. We are old comrades and we must be aware of this!"

Seeing that he couldn't take advantage, the old man's attitude became less enthusiastic;
Not to mention, He Yuzhu is talking about things that are not relevant!
"Third uncle is highly conscious, you are this!"

He Yuzhu looked at Yan Bugui with admiration and gave a thumbs up!
"Ahem, of course, of course!"

Yan Bugui used coughing to cover up his embarrassment, always feeling that Sha Zhu was not sincerely praising him!
"Third uncle, I am also a young comrade, can you please enlighten me as well?"

He Yuzhu's mouth curled up slightly. I guess the old guy got nothing?

You are late and leave early every day, but your boss is not blind!
Yan Bugui suddenly became alert. There was something wrong with Sha Zhu's expression.
Even Teacher Song was made uncomfortable by Sha Zhu's admiration, but he couldn't show it;
I asked him for details several times, and the two of them still had fights;
This is even more true for him. Not only has he not gained any advantage since last year, but he has also suffered considerable losses.

It is better to withdraw first, and don’t say it out loud and then refuse. Where is your awareness?
"I remembered that I have to write Spring Festival couplets tomorrow, and I haven't bought the red paper yet. I'll see you later!"

Looking at Yan Bugui who was smearing his feet, He Yuzhu sneered;

You old man are not good enough to fight with Master Zhu!
After placing the prize at home, He Yuzhu hurried out to pick up his wife and sister;
The meat must be brought back first, otherwise the bicycle will not be able to carry it, and there are two important family members involved!
On the street, pedestrians walked much slower in the face of joy;

Women carrying baskets can be seen everywhere, preparing for the New Year!
On the way home, I bought some snacks like dried fruits and candies;
The three of them walked in, talking and laughing, and suddenly found that the atmosphere in the yard was a bit weird;

He Yuzhu was very surprised. He had just come back to put the meat in. The adults were chatting and the children were playing, and everything was harmonious.
How long has it been? The yard is empty;

When we walked to the central courtyard, we heard the howling of foxes and wolves coming from the Jia family. Oh my gosh, Jia Zhang is back!
Little Jia is offering sacrifice to the heaven, the Jia Zhang family has returned as their king, and it’s during the New Year, so please don’t make any big noise!

Cai Qiuyue looked at the Jia family suspiciously. With this shrew back, the compound might be in turmoil again.

After learning about Chunnier's tricks, even she, who has a high IQ, was amazed;
This woman is much more powerful than Qin Huairu. Qin Huairu just asked for some child support, but this widow just "bottomed out"!
Now that Jia Zhang is back, not only is her son dead, but all her property has fallen into Chunnier's hands;

I don’t know what this will turn out to be!

What surprised them was that after dinner, Jia Zhang didn't make a scene;

Strange things happen every day, but there are especially many today. Could it be that Jia Zhang has changed her personality?

"Qiuyue, you sleep with Yushui tonight. I'll go to the ear room!"

I didn't see Jia Zhang making a scene, so I missed the show and it was time to go to bed.
He Yuzhu had something on his mind, so he suggested sleeping in the ear room!
"Why? Brother Zhuzi!"

Cai Qiuyue looked at He Yuzhu curiously. Since they got married, except for their wedding night, they have never slept separately.

Anyone would be curious if such a request was suddenly made!
"Ahem, come closer!"

He Yuzhu saw that although Yu Shui was reading a book, his ears were tilted towards them, as if he was eavesdropping!

Qiuyue looked at him suspiciously, and just as she stretched her head over, she heard the voice and immediately moved away from He Yuzhu;
He Yuzhu gave her an excuse, saying that he had been restless recently and wanted to fight a hundred rounds;

For the safety of the child, you can only stay calm for two days!

The fact is: it is the end of the year, Liu Shandong will be assessed, and the one-year training is about to end;

He will disappear when he enters the space. How can he not be discovered if he shares the same bed with Qiuyue?
We could only find a way to sleep in separate rooms. Now it seems that this excuse is not only effective, but also very useful!

"Shame on you, go to bed!"

Qiuyue blushed, seemingly recalling an indescribable scene from some time ago!
"Got it!"

He Yuzhu hugged the quilt and went back to the headphone amp. The rain was completely curious;
When her brother and sister-in-law got married, she insisted on sleeping with her, which led to her being 'exiled' for such a long time;

It was during that time that she realized that her nephew would not have been born if she had been there;

She slept alone for such a long time in order for her little nephew to come into the world quickly and play with her;
This time my brother took the initiative not to sleep with his sister-in-law. There must be a secret!
"Sister-in-law, what did my brother say?"

"Little girl, have you finished your winter vacation homework?" "No!"

"Why don't you do it? You have to complete your tasks on time every day;
Otherwise, if you can’t finish writing it when school starts, your teacher will call your parents!”

"Oh!"

He Yuzhu returned to the ear room, locked the door, and went straight into the space;
Liu Shandong is still waiting for him. The one-year period is up and it’s time for the assessment!
"Zhu Zi, the one-year period has come, are you ready?"

"Always be prepared, Master Liu, it's time to start!"

“Very good, the first thing we will test is knife skills;
Knife skills are divided into basic knife skills and special knife skills, let’s get started! ”

The so-called ordinary knife skills are slicing, dicing, etc. This requires hard work and practice. There is no shortcut, and the size requirements are beyond the norm;
Take shredded potatoes for example: the thickness should be about 2-3 mm, and the thickness of the sliced ​​meat should be about 2 mm. Generally speaking, the more uniform the better!
After a year of hard training, He Yuzhu's knife skills have been thoroughly mastered, and the results speak for themselves;

Next, aspects such as food processing, seasoning ability, etc. have reached or above good level!

"Zhu Zi, I have taught you everything I should have taught you. Our fate has ended. It is time to say goodbye.

This Feiluan sword is exactly the same as mine, but made of better material. It is your prize.
You have great talent, I hope you won’t be buried, goodbye!”

"Master Liu, can we meet again?"

Both of them felt a little lost. After all, they had to keep in contact with each other, and after a long time, it was inevitable that they would feel reluctant to part!

"Who knows? I guess we can meet again when I make another breakthrough in cooking?"

"I wish Master Liu great progress in his culinary skills. Farewell Master!"

He Yuzhu respectfully performed the ancient ceremony to express his gratitude to Liu Shandong;
Although he is a coach arranged by the system, he is also a teacher!

"Well, I'll go too!"

Liu Shandong nodded with satisfaction and disappeared in front of He Yuzhu!

When He Yuzhu left the space, it was almost dawn;
He was not at all listless. Instead, he was full of energy and felt better than ever!

After breakfast, He Yuzhu went out to buy New Year's goods and met Jia Zhangshi;

The man just walked past him expressionlessly, as if he hadn't seen him;

He Yuzhu was stunned. How did Chunnier manage to keep this person calm?
This person's temper is obvious to all. If he were to continue to find fault with people, it would be strange.
But now the thunder is not loud and there are no raindrops!

"Zhu Zi, are you going to buy New Year's goods?"

While he was deep in thought, Yan Bugui appeared beside him silently, and seemed to want to go out too!
"Well, Third Uncle, are you going too?"

"Yes, it's New Year's Day, let's go to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy some snacks for the kids!"

"Okay, let's go!"

This time he wanted to walk. It was snowing, so it would be safer to walk and go for a stroll at the same time!
"Isn't that weird?"

Yan Bugui looked at He Yuzhu mysteriously. Just now, when Jia Zhang was walking in front, the scene of Sha Zhu being thoughtful was caught in his sight!

"Third Master knows?"

“I don’t know the exact details, I only know that Jia Zhang was invited back by Chunni’er;
According to my wife, she went to the street office yesterday and then went to the countryside to pick someone up!"

"Oh?"

He Yuzhu was confused and bewildered. How did this widow manage to get Jia Zhangshi? Did Jia Zhangshi accept her fate?

Thinking of this, He Yuzhu shook his head. Jia Zhangshi was not someone who would accept her fate.
There are only two possibilities for such behavior now. Either Jia Zhang sees that the situation is already a foregone conclusion and is not taking any action;
Either he had not yet recovered from his son's death and was unaware of the great changes in the Jia family;

Strictly speaking, the current Jia family is no longer the line of old Jia, but the line of uncle Jia Dongxu;
Except for Jia Zhang, there is no one left in the lineage of Old Jia, so it can be considered extinct!

If you can't figure it out, don't think about it. No matter what, the Jia family is still being watched by Yi Zhonghai, a venomous snake, so they are basically out of the game!
His vigilance towards Chunni'er rose several levels;
This woman is really powerful, she can even suppress Jia Zhang;

I have to tell my wife when I get home that we can’t have sex. It’s too dangerous!
"Hello, Uncle Feng. This Brother Feng is really a fool. He has already taken over, but he still lets you take care of the butcher shop in this cold winter.

If he dares to show up in front of me, I will show you how I can deal with this fat guy!"

While He Yuzhu was talking, Brother Feng appeared behind him, looking at him with a half-smile.
Uncle Feng laughed when he saw this and looked at He Yuzhu strangely;
I heard that this boy is doing well in the factory, but his personality has not changed;

Every time he comes, he has to tell a few jokes, but his son doesn't seem to be willing to let it go easily. How will Zhuzi respond?
"Zhu Zi, what did you say? I can't hear you clearly, can you say it again?"

A familiar voice came, and He Yuzhu's face froze. It seemed that he couldn't say bad things about people behind their backs. It was embarrassing!
"Hey, isn't this my Brother Feng? I just told Uncle Feng to let my mistress make dumplings for you!"

"You are still so smooth-talking, I don't know how you became the director of the steel mill cafeteria!"

There was helplessness on Brother Feng's chubby face, but it looked quite festive!

"Brother Feng, what are you talking about? My master's wife makes dumplings for you, so how come she can't be the canteen director?"

He is a professional in sophistry, ten Feng brothers can't compare to him!
“Stop talking nonsense, I’ve left a cut of the best pork belly for you kid;

"Brothers should still stick to their principles, right? Hahaha."

Pork belly? I only have 10 kilograms at home. Never mind, just buy it!
The purpose of coming here today is to get chicken comb oil. My sister wants to eat dumplings stuffed with oil residue and sauerkraut!

"Okay, prepare it for me. There is also chicken comb oil, oil residue and pickled cabbage, which is a perfect match for making dumplings!"

"Okay, I've prepared this for you. I'll also give you four pig's feet to supplement your brother and sister-in-law's nutrition!"

After Cai Qiuyue became pregnant, she followed He Yuzhu to buy meat, so Brother Feng naturally knew that Qiuyue was pregnant!

"Well, I'm welcome then, thank you!"

"You're welcome!"

There are very few people who buy pig's feet, and they often cannot be sold;

It’s okay in winter, but in summer we basically eat it ourselves!

The most popular meat these days is fat meat. The fatter the better. You can buy it home to make oil to make up for the lack of cooking oil.

Ingredients such as pork trotters and spareribs, which were popular in later generations, were basically ignored in this era;
Of course, mothers still have a certain demand for pig's trotters. After all, pig's trotters are important, can promote milk production, and are beneficial for breastfeeding!
“Son, see, you should be like a pillar, modest and not show off;

He is so young and is the canteen director of a steel mill. He is outstanding.
But in front of us, it is still the same, and has never changed;
If it were other young people, their tails would be up in the air, right?

Do not be arrogant when you win, and do not be discouraged when you lose. Pillars are wise people;
Others call him Shazhu, but is he really stupid? "

Old Feng looked at He Yuzhu's back and said with emotion!

"The pillars are still the same as before. Everyone in the market is impressed by this!"

They run a butcher shop and have been operating in this market for many years, and have seen all kinds of people;

There are many guests who are not well dressed but act arrogantly!

"Yes, whether you are in high spirits or in low spirits;

To put it bluntly, it's all ours, so why should we care about others? Being modest and low-key is the way to go;
Zhuzi is wise, you should learn from him;
If one day, Zhuzi fails, except for a few villains, everyone will still treat him with the current attitude, just for the sake of being a good person;
Look at the daughter-in-law of the Guo family in our alley. She used to be arrogant and domineering.
Look at it now, the neighbors are about to point fingers at you and scold you, right?
Why? Think about it carefully, and you will learn a lot from everything you do!"

"Don't worry, we will live our own lives, we won't flatter the powerful and we won't fawn on the weak;

Make friends with people you can make friends with, and do things you can do! "

"Ah That's good!"

It's the end of the month, please give me some monthly tickets!!
