Siheyuan: starting from prying the corner of the silly column

Chapter 268

Early the next morning, Yu Li got up and went back to her natal home.

When she arrived at her mother's house, she was dragged to work by her mother, and Yu Li resented: "What do you think of me?"

"With so much work, why don't you let Yu Haitang help you, and don't let my brother help you?"

Yu Li's old lady was confident: "Yu Haitang is an announcer in the factory, she is a decent big girl, she has a solid job, how can she do these chores?"

"Your brother is the man of the family, and these housework cannot be touched."

"It just happened that you came here, and you quickly helped me with the work you can do."

Yu Li didn't like to hear that.

If it weren't for Ma Hua, she would have accepted her fate in this life, and would be the most incompetent and annoying girl in her natal family; she would have a lot of fun in her in-law's family, just like the old Yan's family.

"Mom, if I also find a formal job, I will be given an iron rice bowl."

"What do you say?"

"What do you say? You find it before you talk about it." Mrs. Yu Li replied disapprovingly.

"Okay, you can buy me an iron rice bowl with some money." Yu Li said, "Someone in the rolling mill doesn't want to take over, so he wants to sell me the iron rice bowl for 500 yuan."

"Mom, how much can you give me?"

Yu Li's old lady looked surprised: "Ah? Are you serious?"

"Really." Yuli said.

"One thousand and five is not expensive, it's a good deal." Mrs. Yu Li wiped her hands, "Is it reliable?"

"It's pretty reliable." Yu Li was a little surprised and warm, "Mom, can you help me?"

"It's very difficult at home. It's too difficult to get together one thousand and five."

Yu Li's old lady counted with her fingers: "Our family has saved a total of 300 yuan, all of which are reserved for your brother in the future; if you borrow your father's work colleagues and friends, you can borrow another [-] yuan."

"Your sister Haitang can probably ask for one hundred and two hundred."

"How much money do you have in your own hands?"

Yu Li replied: "I only have about 50 yuan. If I really want to find a way, it will only cost 100 yuan."

Not counting MCA's help, that's all.

"Look, it's only about 800 yuan." Yu Li said, "Can you bargain with others, no matter how cheap it is? Iron rice bowl is not easy, you can't miss it."

Hearing that the old lady had such plans for herself, Yu Li burst into tears, and wiped the corners of her eyes: "Mom, you are so kind... I have walked around, and there is no one who supports me to take this iron job, that is, you support me."

"I felt that my aunt was kind to me since I was a child, and you and my dad were indifferent to me. I didn't expect you to support me so much at critical times! It's better to be my mother's family!"

Mrs. Yu Li looked at her suspiciously: "What are you talking about?"

Yu Li was dumbfounded: "Huh? Mom, did I say something wrong?"

"You are stupid, big girl! You are a woman, why do you want a job?"

"Let's collect money together, don't let go of such a good opportunity, give your brother this iron rice bowl, and you will have nothing to worry about in the future!" Mrs. Yu Li looked at Yu Li very strangely, "Iron rice bowl? You Women who are already very old, what kind of job do they have?"

Yu Li's face changed from being touched, to becoming stiff, and then to being indifferent.

"Mom, what did you mean by 'doing everything' just now? Do you want to give my brother a lot of money? Are you going to give him his job?"

Yu Li's old lady said as a matter of course: "What else?"

"You earn money from your iron rice bowl, the cheap ones are only outsiders, your brother is the future blood of our family."

"What about me? I'm also an outsider?" Yu Li asked coldly.

"You are not an outsider, but you are a married girl; if your mother's family is in trouble, you should help." Yu Li's old mother said.

Yu Li sneered: "Okay, you let Yu Haitang pay first, and I will pay later."

"That's it, I'm leaving."

"Hey, don't leave now. Who sells this job? What's the last name, which alley do you live in? You said it, I'll let your dad talk about the price!"

Yu Li's old lady yelled from behind, but Yu Li ignored him and walked faster.

For her parents' eccentricity, she was once again sure and gave up. She must have lost hope.

Fortunately, although Yu Li was moved just now, she didn't lose her mind and didn't say that the job doesn't cost money.

If this was said, Mrs. Yu Li would have to follow her to the courtyard to make a mess today and mess up everything.

Back in the courtyard, the third mother laughed and saw Yu Li joked: "Yu Li, did you get money from your relatives? When will you go to work!"

Yu Li gritted her teeth and said, "Tomorrow!"

The third mother suddenly turned pale with shock: "Huh? You really got the money? That's an iron rice bowl, can you really handle it?"

"Tomorrow I'll go to Taiyuan to find my aunt, I don't believe I can't get money!" Yu Li shouted, half really annoyed, half acting.

Only then did the third mother realize that Yu Li was desperate, and she immediately sneered: "What a fool! Your aunt even has to borrow a bicycle when she comes to Forty-Nine City, how can she have money?"

After get off work, Yan Bugui, Yan Jiecheng, and Yan Jiefang heard about Yu Li's decision, and they all felt that Yu Li was really messing around.

"She doesn't have the life to hold an iron job!"

"Still going to Taiyuan! Is there enough round-trip ticket money?"

Yu Li was really annoyed, and rushed out of the house to pat the table with them: "If you get this iron rice bowl, your family won't get any benefit from me!"

Yan Bugui smiled and said: "I don't expect any benefits, the living expenses are paid on time, don't procrastinate!"

Obviously, they don't think Yu Li can get the money and buy a formal job.

Being underestimated like this, Yu Li sneered even more: "Okay, this is what your family said!"

"Let's read the libretto on a donkey, we'll see!"

After speaking, I went back to the house.

Early the next morning, Yu Li really got up and went to Taiyuan, without even saying when she would come back.

Yan Jiecheng didn't bother to ask, he and Yan Jiefang were staring at Yu Haitang in the backyard.

However, in the end it was Xu Damao who was superior, and asked Yu Haitang out early in the morning, planning to take advantage of the rest day to eat, drink and have fun...

When Xu Damao and Yu Haitang went out, Sha Zhu had to chase after him and yell.

Seeing that Yu Haitang verbally agreed, but still went out to play with Xu Damao, Sha Zhu also felt resentful - why is this girl like this?If you have milk, you are a mother.

This character is really incomparable with Qin Huairu; it's a pity that Qin Huairu doesn't take him seriously now.

When Yan Bugui strolled to the middle courtyard, what he saw was Yi Zhonghai talking to Shazhu, and the aunt standing beside him supporting the deaf old lady.

"Yo, this family, what are you talking about?"

As soon as Yan Bugui spoke, the deaf old lady and Yi Zhonghai laughed—yes, they are a family.

"I didn't say anything, just talk about that little girl Yu Haitang."

"Covet a little food and drink, spend all day with Xu Damao; this is a private matter, we shouldn't talk too much, after all Xu Damao's wife has run away, and Yu Haitang also broke up with her boyfriend."

"But she lives in the old lady's house, and the old lady has to be taken care of when she sits, sleeps, walks, eats, drinks, clothes and sleeps; she doesn't even stretch out her hand, and doesn't serve the old lady."

Yi Zhonghai complained and said: "If the old lady didn't say to get together as much as possible, I would have to talk to her."

"Living at the old lady's house, I don't ask you for a penny, so you must be hardworking and willing to work a little bit?"

Yan Bugui smiled: "Well, it's another girl who is old at home."

"Perhaps, all girls from the old Yu family are like this, looking up at the sky, there is no ground under their feet!"

"Oh? Why isn't Yu Li down-to-earth?" Yi Zhonghai asked.

"Early in the morning, I went to Taiyuan to find her aunt."

Yan Bugui said: "This is not living a good life and living poorly."

Silly Zhu asked strangely: "It's not the New Year's day, what kind of relatives does she have?"

Yan Bugui stopped talking immediately, and it would be obvious if he continued to speak.

It is certain that Yu Li will not be able to borrow money, but if this matter is spread, it will offend Yu Li and Ma Hua by the way.

"Ah, by the way, is Ma Hua at home?"

"Didn't you go out today?"

Ma Hua opened the door, looked at it, and smiled: "Teacher Yan, is there something for me today?"

"Uh, um... didn't you treat me to dinner today?" Yan Bugui reminded.

Ma Hua nodded: "That's right, but it's only after eight o'clock, you come back for lunch?"

"It's okay, it's okay...I just remind you, don't forget."

After Yan Bugui finished speaking, he returned to the front yard.

Silly Zhu directly laughed out loud: "These three masters! I'm afraid that this one will be missing!"

Yi Zhonghai also laughed, and said to Ma Hua: "Old Yan has always been like this before, with a lot of calculations."

"Why did you think of inviting him to dinner today?"

"There's something wrong, talk to him." Ma Hua said.

Yi Zhonghai is also a shrewd person. Seeing that Ma Hua didn't speak directly, he immediately stopped asking.

Silly Zhu is heartless. According to the words, MCA now has a deputy director's office: "Mahua is not empty now, it is the deputy director of the cafeteria who is sitting in the office seriously."

"Speaking of which, we call Ma Hua in the courtyard, and we call him Ma Hua. When we go to the rolling mill and where we work, we must call Director Ma."

Confused is confused, and he has no evil intentions.

Silly Zhu is thinking of Ma Hua's kindness to him, and deliberately expresses Ma Hua's current capabilities and prospects.

Ma Hua is a person who does not put a smile on his face. Moreover, since Ma Hua came out and distributed flour to the eight households in the middle courtyard under Liu Haizhong, the unity of the middle courtyard has far exceeded that of the front and back yards.

In this dangerous age, it is quite useful to have such a few neighbors watching and helping each other.

After finishing speaking, Ma Hua returned home and saw Qin Jingru's big belly, so he stopped letting her cook.

"Qin Huairu, come over at noon to make some dishes, help me..."

As soon as the words fell, Silly Zhu appeared: "Hey, Ma Hua, come to me for cooking!"

"Have you forgotten me, a serious canteen master?"

"I really forgot." Ma Hua laughed, "Come and cook at eleven o'clock? But I have to agree, don't cook."

"My family still has to eat at night, and Mr. Yan probably has to pack some leftovers. If you have to cook, it will be difficult."

What Shazhu likes most is cooking and including the kitchen, that is to say, as much as he cooks, he takes all the leftover ingredients away, leaving nothing to the master.

Silly Zhu was a little embarrassed: "I don't want your money either, so I'll do you a favor. How can I cook for you? But this dish... I'll give one to the old lady, one to the stick, one to the uncle, and one to the Jia family. share, okay?"

Ma Hua smiled: "Can you think about it?"

"I'm a small family, so I invite Mr. Yan to have a meal alone and cook four dishes. You're giving me an extra treat for so many people."

"I'd better not make things difficult for you, just let Qin Huairu come."

Hearing this, Sha Zhu smiled awkwardly: "That's right, that's right."

Qin Huairu is hard-hearted now, she can do it, and won't give them random food.

At noon, Qin Huairu cooked four dishes, and brought home half a plate of fried pork with bean sprouts for the two children in the family to satisfy their cravings.

Yan Bugui hurried over after smelling the smell.

When they arrived at the wine table, they ate and drank for a while, and Yan Bugui asked in a low voice about Yu Li's rush to get a job.

Ma Hua and Yu Li have already verified the details of this matter, and there is no problem at all.

If Yan Bugui had been working in the rolling mill, he might have found something wrong. The key was that he didn't work in the rolling mill at all, so he had no place to check what Ma Hua said and Yu Li had matched, so he just believed it.

After another glass of wine, Yan Bugui talked about Ran Qiuye.
