Siheyuan, counterattack from the proficiency panel

Chapter 25: If you can't calculate, you will be poor. Please invest and read more
Hearing that He Yuzhu was not joking, she quickly agreed and said, "Zhuzi, it's no problem. You two are quite pitiful. Leave the clothes after the rain to Auntie. I guarantee that they will be washed clean."

Hearing this, He Yuzhu nodded and said, "Okay, Aunt Yan, it's settled."

Yan Li nodded, her heart was filled with joy. She didn't expect that she could make money just by coming to wash clothes and chatting with Sha Zhu.

Suddenly, she looked at He Yuzhu, and something in her mind moved. She said, "Zhuzi, do you want to give your dirty clothes to Auntie to wash in the future? Auntie promises to wash them cleanly for you. You two brothers and sisters can just give Auntie 18,000 yuan every month."

"Haha, no need, Aunt Yan, you just need to take care of the dirty clothes from the rain."

He Yuzhu is not used to letting strangers wash his clothes, especially underwear, but it would be fine if it was his wife.

He is already a grown boy, and he would never let his mother wash him, let alone a stranger.

"OK then."

Hearing this, Yan Li was a little disappointed. If she could wash clothes for two people, she could generate 18,000 yuan in income for the family every month.

It's a pity that He Yuzhu disagreed, but it was enough to make the third aunt happy.

the other side.

After He Yuzhu washed the skirt that He Yushui had been coveting, he did not hang it in the yard to dry. The style of the skirt was quite novel and someone might steal it if it was hung in the yard, so he got a hemp rope in the house.

I found a brick and a nail, nailed the two ends to the wall, and tied it with a piece of hemp rope. Then a simple clothes drying rack was made.

After washing the clothes, He Yuzhu started cooking without stopping. During this time, he did not forget to wake up He Yushui, and then helped her tie her hair, and then urged her to wash up.

Just when He Yuzhu was busy playing the role of both father and mother.

....................................

In the front yard, after Yan Li finished washing the clothes, she excitedly went back with the wooden basin. She wanted to tell her old man Yan Bugui the good news.

"The head of the family, the head of the family..." (Note: In the 1950s and 1960s, women used this unique name for their husbands. Sometimes they also called them shopkeepers, which roughly means the same as the current husband and husband)

Yan Bugui is currently calculating this month's expenses. The weather is still cool in the morning, so he can calm down. Otherwise, the weather will be hot by noon, and people will not be able to sit still, let alone calm down and calculate the expenses.

When it comes to calculation, Yan Bugui has already achieved great success.

Ordinary calculations are just superficial, that is, they only calculate the spending aspect.

And he, Yan Bugui, has already taken into account every aspect of life.

To give a simple example, every day after school, he would return to the courtyard as quickly as possible and then wait at the front gate.

Except for Old Man Liu's family who are responsible for cleaning out the excrement in the backyard, he can proudly say that there is no household in this compound that has not been taken advantage of by him.
In addition to food, he could also often take advantage of other residents in terms of daily necessities.

But now, just when he was concentrating on calculating the numbers, he was interrupted by someone, and all the numbers he had just calculated were lost.

So Yan Bugui said angrily: "What's the matter? Why are you still making a fuss at your age? I just calculated the accounts, but you made me forget everything because of my noise. I have to calculate them all again."

But Yan Li didn't care at all, and said, "I was washing clothes in the front yard just now, and I ran into Sha Zhu, the head of the family. Guess what Sha Zhu said to me?"

Yan Bugui said indifferently: "What can he say to you? Can he give you money?"

Yan Li was surprised and said, "Oh, boss, you are amazing. You can even calculate this?!" "Huh?"

Yan Bugui was stunned for a moment and said, "Did Shazhu really give you money?"

Yan Li nodded.

"Is Shazhu really that stupid?!"

Yan Li said: "No, Shazhu is not stupid, what I mean is just like giving me money."

"What's going on? Tell me clearly, don't tell me half the story."

This made Yan Bugui very anxious, and Yan Li then slowly told the story.

"Look, didn't Shazhu's father He Daqing run off with a widow? Shazhu and Yushui are the only ones left to depend on each other. Just now, Shazhu took out 10,000 yuan to hire me to do Yushui's laundry."

Yan Bugui's eyes widened and he asked, "Is there such a thing?"

But then he immediately figured out the key point. After all, he was a teacher and his thoughts were relatively active.

"Silly Zhu is considering that Yu Shui will grow up. Although they are brother and sister, there is still a difference between men and women. He is so thoughtful at such a young age."

Yan Bugui said with emotion: "After that, old woman, remember to help Yu Shui wash all the clothes. The brother and sister are quite pitiful. They lost their father at a young age. Since you have taken their money, you must do your job well and not let them scold you. Maybe there will be opportunities to generate income in the future. When you go to get Yu Shui's clothes, clean up Sha Zhu's house by the way."

"Ah? Boss, Silly Zhu only asked me to wash clothes for Yu Shui, but didn't ask me to clean the house?"

"fool."

Yan Bugui explained angrily, "Shazhu is now a cook in the canteen of the steel mill. Don't you see Shazhu always bringing back lunch boxes and some dishes in the afternoon? Sometimes he can't finish them. When you clean up the house for him, you might find some unfinished lunch boxes or dishes. Can't we eat them at our house?"

In this era, people often starve to death, so don’t talk about eating what others have left behind, as those are all good things.

In the special period of a few years to come, people will eat nothing but shit, and everything they can see will be eaten into their stomachs.

Grass roots, tree bark, Guanyin soil...

Upon hearing this, Yan Li's eyes lit up and she said, "Oh, you are the one who should be in charge. Why didn't I think of this?"

Yan Bugui smiled lightly and said, "You can't be poor if you have enough food and clothes, but you can't plan well and become poor."

When it comes to being thrifty, Yan Bugui is definitely at the top level.

Yan Li nodded in agreement. It was precisely because Yan Bugui was good at calculating that he was able to support such a large family.

Although I often feel hungry and have no idea about the next meal after the last one.

When eating, you dare not even eat more rice than you can chew. On the surface, you are drinking rice soup, but actually you are just drinking water. You must be hungry often, right?
But people did not starve to death. This was the general situation in the 1950s and 1960s.

The boys in Yan Bugui's family are all pale and thin, nothing like the He brothers and sisters. Although He Daqing ran away, there is a promising boy named He Yuzhu who temporarily shoulders the burden of the family.
