Siheyuan: Start with a big car

After Yang Ting was expelled, Yang Xueli became the only representative of the Yang family.

The steel mill quickly signed an agreement with Yang Xueli
Yang Xueli became the exclusive agent of Gangcheng, and new energy vehicles were sold all over the world through Gangcheng Yang's.

These cars not only bring a lot of benefits to the Yang family, but also bring back a huge amount of foreign exchange.

Yang Xueli was in a hurry to return to Gangcheng to handle work and to deal with Yang Ting at the same time. She stayed in Beijing for two days and then left.

During these two days, Li Weidong has been troubled by Yang Xueli.

For the first time, he understood what it meant to have similar cows but no land that could be plowed.

After resting for half a day.

Our Li Weidong has also started the next research plan, this time it is a 17-inch color TV.

At present, televisions both at home and abroad are black and white. Once color televisions appear, they will surely be successful.

In the laboratory, Li Weidong shared his ideas with the researchers.

What was beyond Li Weidong's expectation this time was that all the researchers agreed and no one raised any objections.

“Maybe this is the power of role models!”

Li Weidong was originally planning to give some explanation, but now he can save himself the trouble.

Now that the laboratory is mature, Li Weidong does not have to worry too much. He works in the laboratory for half a day every day.
I spent the rest of my time accompanying Zhou Xiaobai and Zhang Qian, and occasionally taking care of Qin Jingru. I lived a very happy life.

However, in sharp contrast to Li Weidong's happy life, the Jia family's life became increasingly difficult.

Ever since Banggeng was fired from the sawmill, he has been staying at home doing nothing all day, feeling confused and without any plans for the future.

Jia Zhang became even worse. Relying on her status as an elder, she was lazy and ate all day long and was unwilling to do any work.

As a result, the livelihood of the entire family fell on Qin Huairu's shoulders alone.

Her meager monthly salary was barely enough to provide for her family's basic needs.

Qin Huairu just finished a day of hard work and returned home exhausted.
Before she could even catch her breath, Jia Zhang started to curse at me at the top of her voice: "You unfilial thing, you only know how to make me eat those coarse grains every day, and you are reluctant to buy me a white flour bun. What's the use of having you as my daughter-in-law!

When Dongxu wanted to marry you, I didn't agree because I knew you were useless."

Qin Huairu felt very aggrieved, and her eyes instantly turned red.
"Mom, you know the situation at home. With my salary, I have to support a large family. How can I afford to buy white flour buns?

I work so hard outside every day, isn't it all for this family? "

As she spoke, her voice couldn't help but choke up.
Jia Zhang was not willing to let it go. She stiffened her neck and continued to scold Qin Huairu.

At this time, Bang Geng took a step forward with an unfathomable smile on his face.

"Grandma, please stop scolding me. My mother is useless. Scolding her won't solve any problems."

As he spoke, he tilted his head slightly and his eyes rolled around.

"We have to find a way to make money. It's no use just scolding. My mother is useless. It's useless even if you scold her."

Jia Zhang heard this and replied angrily: "That's easy to say, but how can we make money without working these days?"

Banggeng curled his lips and revealed a sly smile.
He leaned close to Jia Zhang's ear and said in a low voice, "Grandma, I have an idea. Have you forgotten my cousin, my mother's cousin Qin Jingru?
She is not married yet and is currently an assistant in a steel rolling mill workshop. She is also very pretty.

If I can marry her off, I will definitely receive a lot of gifts."

Qin Huairu's face suddenly changed when she heard this, and she hurried forward to stop him, "Bang Geng, don't do anything stupid!
Now Jingru has fallen out with our family, and she won’t agree to us introducing her to someone.”

Bang Geng shook his head nonchalantly, "Mom, you are just too honest. The man doesn't know these things.

By then, we just need to collect the money and the matter will be settled. Who will care so much?
Besides, Qin Jingru gives money to our family anyway, so there is no need for us to care about her at all."

He rubbed his hands, as if he had already seen a large amount of betrothal money coming in.

"With Qin Jingru's conditions, she will definitely be able to find a rich man. Then we will have no worries about food and clothing for the rest of our lives."

Qin Huairu was filled with fear, "Bang Geng, this is not allowed!

Jingru is our relative, how could we do such a thing as selling her out? If this gets out, our family will be disgraced!"

Bang Geng curled his lips impatiently and didn't take Qin Huairu's words seriously at all.

Jia Zhang was furious, pointing at Qin Huairu's nose and yelling, "You coward!

You just know it’s useless to say these things. Now that my family can barely make ends meet, why bother about having face or not!
If you don't want to find a way to make money, don't stay in this house!"

Qin Huairu felt so wronged that tears welled up in her eyes, but she still gritted her teeth and said firmly: "I just can't do such a conscienceless thing."

I have to say that Qin Huairu in this world still has to have some dignity.

There are some things she can't do.

But it’s different with Jia Zhang, she is still the same old hag.

When Jia Zhang heard this, she threatened fiercely, "Okay, you don't want to do it, right? Then I'll do it!
If you dare to make trouble, I will kick you out of this house and never come back again!"

Qin Huairu's body swayed, as if she had been hit hard.

She knew Jia Zhang's temper very well and knew how to do what she said.

In desperation, she could only lower her head

Qin Huairu regretted it. If she had listened to Li Weidong at the beginning, she would not have ended up like this.

But it's too late to regret.

Afterwards, Jia Zhang took action in a hurry.

She originally thought that this matter could be easily accomplished, but unexpectedly, she soon ran into a setback.

The only people she knew were the old ladies with whom she chatted on a daily basis, and they were simply unable to help her find someone who was willing to pay a high price to marry Qin Jingru.

Of course, it may also be because these people knew Jia Zhang's personality and didn't believe that Qin Jingru would entrust Jia Zhang to arrange a blind date for her.

Just when Jia Zhang was at a loss, Bang Geng suddenly slapped his head and said, "Grandma, I heard from Liu Haizhong that he had a distant relative who was a big landlord before liberation.

Although the content is not good now, I heard that a lot of silver dollars were hidden in the past.

If I can marry Jingru to him, I will definitely need a betrothal gift."

When Jia Zhang heard this, her eyes lit up instantly, as if she had seen a savior, and she immediately became energized.

Jia Zhang did not delay for a moment and hurried to Liu Haizhong's house.

At this time, Liu Haizhong was sitting at the table, drinking wine leisurely, with a plate of peanuts in front of him.

Hearing the knock on the door, he got up impatiently and opened it.

Seeing that it was Jia Zhang, her face instantly darkened and she shouted angrily: "Hey, you still have the nerve to come here? When will you pay back the money you borrowed?" Although Jia Zhang was anxious, she still pretended to be innocent, stiffened her neck, and said confidently:

"I didn't borrow that money, Qin Huairu borrowed it, it has nothing to do with me.

I came here today to discuss something else with you."

Having said that, she walked straight into the room and sat down on a chair without caring whether Liu Haizhong agreed or not.

Liu Haizhong was too lazy to pay attention to Jia Zhangshi, and his eyes glared at her.

"Stop making trouble here and get out of here! Don't bother me here."

Just when the atmosphere was tense, the second aunt came out from the inner room.

She has always been kind-hearted, and she also cared about the fact that they were all neighbors in the same compound, and they would see each other every day.
He hurried forward to persuade Liu Haizhong.

"Hey, don't be so angry. We are all neighbors. Let's talk it out nicely."

As the second aunt spoke, she pulled Liu Haizhong to sit down, then turned to look at Jia Zhang, "Sister, don't take it to heart. He has a bad temper. It's been so many years, you know it well."

After saying that, the second aunt turned around and poured a cup of tea for Jia Zhang.

Jia Zhang picked up the teacup, took a sip, and frowned in disdain, "This tea has no taste, give me some more crushed oranges."

The second aunt looked embarrassed, but it was difficult to refuse. She sighed helplessly and had to change her cup of tea with crushed tea.

Oops, lost another penny
Jia Zhang drank some tea to moisten her throat, and then she couldn't wait to get to the point: "Haizhong, I heard that you have a distant relative who was a big landlord before liberation. How is he now?"

Although Liu Haizhong was puzzled as to why Jia Zhang was asking about this, he still answered truthfully: "His name is Chen Xing. Although his background is not good now, his family is rich and he can eat meat every day."

When Jia Zhang heard this, she couldn't help but swallow her saliva: "He's so rich, I want to introduce him to a girl."

Liu Haizhong asked curiously: "Who are you talking about?"

Jia Zhang said proudly: "It's Qin Jingru, my cousin. She is very pretty and an assistant in the steel mill workshop."

After hearing this, Liu Haizhong was so shocked that his eyes widened and he almost spit out the wine in his mouth.

"Are you crazy? Chen Xing is over 40 years old and has a bad background, while Qin Jingru is only 20 years old and a factory leader. How could they be together? Don't talk nonsense."

Jia Zhang, however, disagreed. She puffed out her chest and said confidently, "I am her elder and I can make the decision about her affairs. As long as Chen Xing gives a large gift, this matter will be settled."

Liu Haizhong looked at Jia Zhang's serious expression.
I just felt angry and amused, and waved my hands repeatedly, "Don't be silly, if this really happens, you will be criticized by others."

She tilted her head, her eyes full of greed, and shouted confidently: "As long as Chen Xing is willing to give the bride price, I will definitely marry Qin Jingru to Chen Xing."

Liu Haizhong is not a fool
Upon hearing this, he instantly understood Jia Zhang's trick. Introducing a girl to Chen Xing was fake, and the real purpose was to cheat him of his money.

His face darkened: "Are you trying to cheat people out of the betrothal money? How could you do such a wicked thing! Although I, Liu Haizhong, talk about money, I have never been the kind of person who deceives people."

Unexpectedly, Jia Zhang was not panicked, but rolled her eyes and put on a flattering smile.
He leaned close to Liu Haizhong and said in a low voice, "Haizhong, so what if you figured it out? As long as you help me, we can split the betrothal money 50-50 after the deal is done. This is a large sum of money, enough for you to spend for a long time."

Hearing this, Liu Haizhong was stunned for a moment.

He is indeed short of money now, otherwise he would not have asked Qin Huairu for medicine money a while ago.

But...Chen Xing is his relative after all.

This is so unkind.

Seeing Liu Haizhong's hesitation, Jia Zhang rolled her eyes and began to fan the flames: "Look at Chen Xing, he is so rich, has he ever bought you any wine?

Have you ever taken your relative seriously? "

Liu Haizhong opened his mouth and shook his head helplessly, "Indeed not."

Seeing this, Jia Zhang took advantage of the situation and said, "I am in charge of this matter. If anything goes wrong, I will take full responsibility. You just wait for your share of the money.

Such a good thing is hard to find even with a lantern!"

His eyebrows were twisted into a knot in his bangs, and the balance in his heart began to tilt.

He hesitated for a moment, gritted his teeth, and said resolutely: "Okay, I'll trust you this time, I'll go to Chen Xing's house to make the connection."

As soon as he said this, he felt a little uneasy.

When Jia Zhang heard Liu Haizhong agreed, she immediately became alert.
She glared, took a step forward, and almost poked her finger at the tip of Liu Haizhong's nose, and said viciously: "Liu Haizhong, don't go back on your word. If you dare to play tricks, I won't forgive you!"

After saying that, she snorted, turned around and walked away with a swagger.

As soon as she left, the second aunt ran out from the inner room in a hurry.

With a worried look on his face, he grabbed Liu Haizhong's arm and advised anxiously, "Old man, you can't do this! This is an immoral thing. If it gets out, how can we live in this compound?"

Liu Haizhong was already feeling irritated at the moment, and became immediately annoyed after hearing Second Aunt's advice.

He suddenly shook off Second Aunt's hand, his eyes wide open like bells, and shouted angrily: "What do you know!
Our family is so poor, this is a good opportunity to make money, don't mess around here!"

The second aunt was frightened by his sudden anger. Her eyes suddenly turned red and she said aggrievedly: "I am doing this for the good of our family..."

But Liu Haizhong didn't listen to her explanation at all. He turned around and sat on the chair angrily, muttering: "Don't worry about it, don't worry about it..."

After Liu Haizhong made up his mind, he looked up at the sky. Seeing that it was getting late, he hurriedly changed into relatively clean clothes and prepared to go to Chen Xing's house.

As soon as he went out and arrived at the gate of the compound, he ran into Li Weidong who was coming back from get off work.

Li Weidong saw from a distance that Liu Haizhong looked hurried and his clothes were different from usual, and he felt strange.

After approaching, Li Weidong looked Liu Haizhong up and down, frowned and asked, "Where are you going? You look so anxious."

Liu Haizhong was suddenly asked by Li Weidong

My heart skipped a beat and I felt as nervous as if I had been caught red-handed.

His face instantly turned red, and he stammered, "Ah, I... I just went out for a walk, just taking a walk."

Although he said this, his hands unconsciously rubbed the corners of his clothes.

Li Weidong is so smart that he can tell at a glance that there is something fishy about the bangs
But he didn't intend to investigate further. He just smiled and patted Liu Haizhong's shoulder, saying earnestly: "We must behave ourselves, don't do bad things, and make fewer mistakes."

Liu Haizhong nodded hurriedly, nodding his head like pounding garlic, and said repeatedly: "Yes, yes, Weidong, don't worry, I definitely know."

After saying this, he ran away in a hurry like a frightened rabbit, fearing that Li Weidong would ask a few more questions and expose his plan.

Looking at Liu Haizhong's receding figure, Li Weidong frowned slightly, and the doubts in his heart became even stronger.

Are these beasts in the compound going to cause trouble again?
But it doesn’t matter if they cause trouble, we can just give them a good beating then.
