Get something in the courtyard

That day, a few guests came to the house. They were none other than Li Yunsheng, whom he knew in the compound.

"Brother Kun, I heard that there is a great chef in your courtyard. Let him show off his skills." Wei Guo walked into Wang Kun's house. Without any courtesy, he picked up the fruit on the table, wiped it on his body, and started eating.

Xiao Ning sat aside with Ran Qiuye and said, "You have never seen food before, and you eat like this when you come home."

Wei Guo was still as afraid of Xiao Ning as before and smiled awkwardly.

Wang Kun smiled and said, "It's okay. Let him eat. Why are you here?"

"Didn't Xue'er get into college? Let's come over to celebrate for him."

Xue'er walked in from outside and said with a smile: "Just celebrate with me with empty hands."

Wei Guo chuckled, took out a pen from his pocket, and said, "How could that be possible? This pen was captured by the old man during the war. I'm asking for it for you."

Xueer asked: "You didn't steal this!"

"Nonsense, am I that kind of person?" Wei Guo was obviously lacking in confidence.

Xueer took one look and said, "I don't dare to take this, you should take it back!"

Xiao Ning said, "We have discussed it and we will invite you to Lao Mo for a meal to celebrate for you."

Xue'er leaned against Xiao Ning with a smile: "Sister Xiao Ning is still considerate."

"By the way, I heard that several people from your college passed the exam."

"Yes. We grew up together and we all passed the exam this time. Sister Xiaoning, did you pass?"

Weiguo rushed to say, "We passed. Several of us passed. We have to thank Brother Kun and Sister-in-law for preparing the tutorial books for us."

Wang Kun said, "That's all due to your hard work. Now that you've passed the exam, study hard! Please sit down first, I'll go get you some food."

After Wang Kun went out, he went to the central courtyard to find Sha Zhu and asked him to help with cooking.

"You have a guest at home. Who is it?"

"Nothing, just some friends. They heard that Xue'er got into college, so they came to celebrate."

"Oh, that's no problem. You prepare the dishes and I'll be there soon." Wang Kun gave instructions to Sha Zhu, then went out for a walk and came back with meat and vegetables.

When I came back, Sha Zhu was already sitting at home. From what I could hear, they were chatting quite happily.

"You know each other."

One of them, Cheng Hao, said, "I know her. I saw Qiaomei when I went to my uncle's house."

Wang Kun thought about it, this is normal. Sha Zhu often went to the big boss's place to cook for the big boss, so it was not surprising to meet these children from the big courtyard.

When Sha Zhu saw the meat Wang Kun had, he said, "That's quite a lot. It's a good opportunity for you to have a taste of my cooking skills."

Yan Bugui asked curiously, "Shazhu, who are the people who came to Wang Kun's house?"

While washing vegetables, Sha Zhu said, "Uncle San, your old problem has come back again. Don't ask about everything. It's not good for you to ask too much."

"I'm just curious. I've never seen them."

Sha Zhu curled his lips: "Of course you haven't seen them. They are all children of big leaders and live in big compounds."

When Yan Bugui heard this, he didn't dare to ask. Those stubborn people in the city of Sijiu were a group of people who were not easy to mess with. He didn't dare to mess with them easily. He didn't even think about taking advantage of them.

Qin Huairu passed by the front yard and saw Wang Kun's house bustling with activity. She felt like she had eaten bitter herbs. She wanted to live a good life in her life, but she had never lived a good life for a few days. When she got home, before she could even drink a sip of water, Jia Zhang asked, "How is it going? Did you find a job for Banggeng?"

Qin Huairu gulped down a cup of water before saying, "I begged the street office for a long time before they gave me a job as a street sweeper."

"Sweeping the streets? No way. How can a Banggeng do this kind of job?" Jia Zhang refused without thinking.

Qin Huairu said nothing, with a helpless look on her face. Jia Zhang looked down on the job of sweeping the streets, but how could she know that this job of sweeping the streets was earned by someone taking advantage of her.

If she wants Banggeng to start working officially, does she need to make greater sacrifices?

"Anyway, this is the only skill I have. Either I let Bang Geng go sweep the streets, or I retire and Bang Geng takes my place."

This result was not what Jia Zhang wanted. Street sweeping was looked down upon. Going to the steel mill for a job was good, but Bang Geng could only get a few dollars when he started working. That little money was not enough for their family.

"Can't you think of another way?"

"What can I do? I don't know the people who have the final say."

Jia Zhang was speechless after being asked this question. After thinking for a long time, she said, "Wang Kun and Sha Zhu are unwilling to help. You won't go to Xu Damao. He is Bang Geng's uncle-in-law."

"Don't you know who Xu Damao is? Do you think he can help our family?" Qin Huairu smiled bitterly.

It's not that she hasn't thought about Xu Damao, but she has no chance to find him. If Xu Damao continued to work in the steel mill, she could still find a chance to do some business with him. But Xu Damao was transferred and she could not see him at all.

Jia Zhang certainly knew this. Over the years, they had tried many times to take advantage of Xu Damao, but had never succeeded.

But if they fail, will they give up?

impossible.

"If Xu Damao doesn't work, why don't you go to Qin Jingru? She and Xu Damao are both old and they don't have any children. Yi Zhonghai has started to think about retirement at his age, so why don't they think about it?
Just tell Qin Jingru that our Banggeng will provide for them in their old age. I don’t believe he won’t agree to find a job for Banggeng.”

Qin Huairu didn't recognize Jia Zhangshi anymore. Usually, she would curse when someone mentioned Bang Jie to take care of Yi Zhonghai in his old age. Why did she bring it up today?

"Mom, you don't object?"

Jia Zhang rolled her eyes at her and said, "Why should I object? Do you really think I'm stupid? I usually scold Yi Zhonghai because that old man is unwilling to spend money and only wants to take advantage.

Xu Damao is different. He is living a good life now and brings back a lot of good things from outside every week.

Bang Geng will not suffer any loss if he supports him in his old age. Besides, this is just a temporary solution for us. When he finds a job for Bang Geng, we will have the final say on what to do with him. "

Qin Huairu thought about it and felt that Jia Zhang's method was feasible, so he packed up and went to find Qin Jingru.

"Jingru, you and Xu Damao have been married for so many years, but you still don't have any children. You should also think about the future."

"Sister. What do you mean?" Qin Jingru asked puzzledly.

Qin Huairu smiled and said, "What do you mean, sister? You are not young anymore. An old man at your age would start to think about retirement. Don't you think about it too?"
You are Banggeng's aunt, and our two families are relatives. I thought that if you agree, Banggeng will take care of you in your old age."

"But Damao may not agree."

Perhaps influenced by Yi Zhonghai's plan for retirement, Qin Jingru also accepted the proposal of finding someone to take care of her in her old age.

Qin Huairu felt that there was a chance and continued to deceive him, "If he doesn't agree, can't you persuade him more? Our family is good, and apart from other things, there is absolutely no problem with filial piety.

It just so happens that he has no job, so you can persuade Xu Damao to let Bang Geng follow him. This way he can also see Bang Geng's ability. If you think Bang Geng is suitable, let Bang Geng take care of you in your old age.

If it's not suitable, forget it. You won't suffer any loss, right?" (End of this chapter)
