Chapter 43 Take a look! ! !
  Looking at the empty animal pen, Zhang Chenfei decided to go to the countryside.

Although you can buy vegetable seeds at the flower and bird market, you can't buy chickens, ducks, geese, pigs, cattle, and sheep. If you want to raise these things, you have to go to the countryside.

Fortunately, his grandmother's family lived in Fangshan, and he had acquaintances in the countryside, so it was very convenient to do anything.

"Why don't we go to my uncle's house to buy some chickens, ducks, geese, etc., and also get some firewood for the winter." Zhang Chenfei thought as he exited the space.

It snowed heavily overnight, and Zhang Chenfei got up early the next morning and found that the yard was completely white.

He got dressed, picked up the kettle from the stove, held toiletries in his other hand, and headed towards the central courtyard.

In cold weather, water pipes always freeze, and they cannot be frozen without pouring hot water.

Zhang Chenfei had just used hot water to clear the faucet. He took the cold water in a basin and mixed it with boiling water to wash up.

Over there, Mrs. Jia Zhang also got up and went to the pool. When she saw Zhang Chenfei, her eyes couldn't help but fall on his feet, "Da Fei, do your new shoes pinch your feet?"

Zhang Chenfei tested the water temperature with his hand and replied: "The size is just right, or else I keep telling you, but in the entire East Fourth District, there is no one who can make shoes better than your Aunt Zhang!!!"

He got a pair of shoes for free, but he was not shy about complimenting the other person.

When Jia Zhang heard that the feedback was good, she carefully looked at Zhang Chenfei's face and carefully said the words she had rehearsed in her mind for a long time last night:
  "Da Fei, our two families are old neighbors. You know that your Aunt Zhang and I have a hard life. When you were alive, your Uncle Jia always beat me because of my bad mouth.

Let's wait until he dies. I will become a widow again, and life will be even more miserable. Dongxu doesn't earn much after taking over the job. , why does the aunt make shoes day and night? Aren’t you selling your shoes to save some pension money? ? "

"I am collecting shoe soles every day, from day to night, and from late night to day!! Even so, to be honest, aunt only earns three to five yuan a month!!"

As Jia Zhang spoke, she squeezed out a few tears from her triangular eyes. He just hoped that Zhang Chenfei would be moved by his words and return the money for the shoes to him.

In fact, after Zhang Chenfei extorted the shoes before, she wanted to break her teeth and swallow them.

Who would have thought that Zhang Chenfei was making a lot of money these days. While receiving royalties, he also received rewards from the district office for catching spies.

Not to mention the royalties, the reward from the district office yesterday alone was a full fifty yuan! ! !
  After becoming envious, jealous, and resentful, Jia Zhang began to feel unbalanced.

Why? Why are you, Zhang Chenfei, so rich, trying to steal a pair of shoes from me, a widow, for a few cents? ? ?
  Isn’t this bullying an honest person? ? I deserve to be bullied like this by you, Zhang Chenfei, because I am an honest person? ?
  Thinking of this, Jia Zhang couldn't sleep all night.

After learning from the pain, I went to find Zhang Chenfei. I plan to move him emotionally and rationally, and ask him to give me the shoe money.

Even if it’s a 20% discount, it’s still worthless! ! !
  After speaking, Mrs. Jia Zhang looked at Zhang Chenfei longingly, trying her best to look pitiful.

I think back then, she relied on this look to distance herself from Lao Yi. Mrs. Jia Zhang came back to her senses, bit her lip and looked at Zhang Chenfei.

Zhang Chenfei naturally knew what Jia Zhang was thinking. He tried his best to look at Jia Zhang with a sincere look, and then asked: "Aunt Zhang, do you know why your life is becoming more and more difficult as time goes by?"

Jia Zhang blinked and whispered softly: "Why?"

"Why?" Zhang Chenfei had already finished washing his face, walked to the small bench in front of Jia's house, sat down, and said slowly: "What is the family motto of the old Yan family in the front yard?"

Jia Zhang hurriedly answered: "Who doesn't know this? Lao Yan and his wife talk about it every day. If you don't have enough to eat, you won't have enough clothes to wear. If you don't calculate it, you will suffer from poverty."

"Yes, it's a calculation!!" Zhang Chenfei stared at Jia Zhang and said word by word, "You are at a disadvantage because you don't know how to calculate."

"I don't know how to scheme?" Jia Zhang pointed her finger at her nose, feeling that Zhang Chenfei was farting. She stole things from under the windows of every house in the courtyard when she saw them. Oh, no, she took things.

Today I saw my boss hanging garlic in pigtails, so I hurriedly pulled both ends of it. Tomorrow I saw the dried sweet potatoes from the Xi family and hurriedly grabbed a handful.

How calculating is she? ? Who can outwit her? ? ? ?
  Because of these things, she had many fights with those old ladies in the courtyard.

Zhang Chenfei had his teeth knocked out because he stole, oh no, took things from the Zhang family. She was stunned and didn't return the things to the old Zhang family.

Now Zhang Chenfei actually says that she doesn't know how to scheme? ? Simply ridiculous! ! !
  Not only did he say that he was sorry for himself, Jia Zhang felt that Zhang Chenfei was sorry for the two punches that Zhang Chenfei had given him! ! !
  Seeing that Jia Zhang was not convinced, Zhang Chenfei patted the stool next to him and motioned for Jia Zhang to sit over.

Mrs. Jia Zhang hurriedly sat down and looked up at Zhang Chenfei.

Zhang Chenfei said, "Aunt Zhang, don't be convinced by what I say. Today, while we both get up early, I will walk you through the matter from the beginning."

"First of all, the first mistake you made was to let Jia Dongxu take over when my Uncle Jia passed away."

Mrs. Jia Zhang disagreed, "After your Uncle Jia died, the only male in the family was Dongxu. If he doesn't take up the post, how can I take over?"

"Don't interrupt!!" Zhang Chenfei was very dissatisfied with Jia Zhang's casual intervention and glared at her, "First of all, your idea is not good? What do you mean he is the only man? If he doesn't take the post, who will take the post??"

"What did the top leader say? Women hold up half the sky!!! You can't weaken women, do you understand???"

Jia Zhang was immediately frightened by his scolding: "Da Fei, you are right, it's because Auntie is not ideologically aware. Go on."

"When my Uncle Jia passed away two years ago, you were only forty years old. Let me ask you again, what is the current retirement policy in our country??"

Jia Zhang was sure that she could speak, and then carefully replied: "Men are sixty, women retire at fifty??"

Although she had never worked, workers lived in the courtyard. After the "Labor Insurance Regulations" promulgated by the Government Affairs Council last year, the whole courtyard exploded, so she remembers it very clearly.

Zhang Chenfei nodded: "In addition to being over fifty, women also need to meet the condition of working for fifteen years. In other words, if it was you who took over the job after Uncle Jia passed away two years ago, you would be able to retire in 1965."

According to the country's retirement system, retirement pay is generally 50% to 80% of on-the-job salary.

"In other words, if your salary was forty yuan per month in 1965, then after retirement, you will receive a pension of at least twenty yuan per month!!!"

Speaking of this, Zhang Chenfei was afraid that Mrs. Jia Zhang would not understand, so he counted on his fingers and told her that when she retired, Jia Dongxu would directly take over from her.

Then Lao Jia's family will be able to receive her pension ranging from 20 to 32 yuan a month, plus Jia Dongxu's salary.

"Now you just think that you can make two more pairs of shoes as a pension, but what if you are old and in poor health and can't make shoes??? Isn't that just like a widow peeing and unable to get out?"

"But if you take up your post, even if you are paralyzed in bed. As long as you are breathing, your pension will not be less than a cent!!!"

Zhang Chenfei said a lot in one breath and couldn't help but stop and light a cigarette.

As Jia Zhang listened to his tirade, her face turned from white to red, then to green, and finally stayed as dark as ink.

After being stunned for a long time, she grabbed Zhang Chenfei's sleeve and howled: "Da Fei, aunt is so confused!!!" Zhang Chenfei nodded, e
