Courtyard House: Starting in a Ceramics Factory

Chapter 124 Bickering Siblings

From the afternoon onwards, Sha Zhu was busy preparing for the New Year's Eve dinner, while Li Feng just sat at Sha Zhu's house eating sunflower seeds.

Li Feng wasn't interested in cooking, so He Yushui could handle the cooking alone.

When the two siblings cook together, it goes quite smoothly.

After finishing his sunflower seeds, Li Feng took a sip of hot tea and then walked into their kitchen, watching the brother and sister working together skillfully.

He couldn't help but smile at Sha Zhu and say this.

"Silly Zhu!"

"Your sister is so capable now, it's not a waste for her to help you out at all."

"Aren't you going to arrange for her to work as a cook in your factory later?"

At this moment, Sha Zhu, while cooking, smiled and said to Li Feng.

"Why".

"That depends on the rainwater being willing to dry up."

"If you're going to be a chef, you definitely need to wield a big ladle; you can't cook in the rain."

"But I could use rainwater to work as a waiter."

After hearing what Sha Zhu said, Li Feng also thought it was pretty good. The factory's service staff were also factory employees and enjoyed the same rights as ordinary employees.

Besides, being a waiter is definitely easier than being a fitter or something.

So Li Feng smiled and said to He Yushui.

"Did you hear me?"

"A waiter from the factory!"

"Ordinary people can't get in."

However, He Yushui shook her head at the two of them and said...

"I'm not so sure!"

"What if I get into university or vocational school?"

"I have no interest in being a waiter."

Upon hearing He Yushui's words, Li Feng couldn't help but give her a thumbs up in praise.

"You really have ambition."

"If you get into university or vocational school, you really won't need to hire waiters."

“Once you get into university, you’ll be a cadre, and then you’ll definitely be different from your brother.”

After hearing Li Feng's words, Sha Zhu shook his head and said...

"What's the difference?"

"The salaries of cadres are not much higher than ours."

"What's so good about it?"

After hearing what Sha Zhu said, Li Feng just smiled and didn't say anything.

He Yushui said to Sha Zhu with some anger.

"elder brother!".

"Wouldn't it be good if I became a cadre?"

Sha Zhu said helplessly after hearing his sister's words.

"I didn't say it was bad."

"But it's so hard to get into university, and the wages for those university graduates who are assigned to our factory are just so-so."

"An old man who never went to college earns only ninety-nine yuan a month."

“There are a few people in our factory who earn more than this old man.”

"Even if it were me, I could still go out and host a big banquet or something. What can those college students do besides earn a fixed salary?"

After hearing what Sha Zhu said, He Yushui simply rolled her eyes at him.

She longed to hear her brother spout some more profound wisdom.

Because she felt that what her brother said was all nonsense, He Yushui felt that she had gone to high school and that her teachers and classmates all thought that going to university was the best option.

If I don't pass the exam, that's another story.

As for Li Feng, he naturally went back to the living room to crack sunflower seeds.

The siblings were bickering, and Li Feng felt too embarrassed to get involved.

time flies.

It's almost six o'clock.

Sha Zhu cooked a lot of dishes, and He Yushui helped carry all the dishes to the square table in the living room.

When everything was arranged, it turned out there were twelve dishes.

At this moment, Sha Zhu stretched his body and then took out two bottles of Lao Bai Gan (a type of Chinese liquor) from his room.

When He Yushui saw her brother take out the wine, she took out two wine glasses from the kitchen.

After placing the wine glass on the table, He Yushui couldn't help but advise her brother, "Don't get drunk again this time."

Hearing his sister's words, Sha Zhu felt a little embarrassed, so he couldn't help but say to He Yushui with a stern face.

"How can you talk about your own brother like that?"

He Yushui glared at Sha Zhu and said, "What did I say to you?"

"Can't I even get you to drink less?"

Sha Zhu felt helpless about his sister, so he could only compromise with He Yushui.

"Okay, okay, okay."

"Then I'll drink less."

He Yushui only let Sha Zhu go after hearing what he said.

He Yushui turned on the radio that Sha Zhu had just bought.

When Li Feng saw the new radio that Sha Zhu had bought, he couldn't help but ask Sha Zhu in surprise.

"Silly Zhu!"

"Do you still have any household appliances at home?"

"You've even bought a radio?"

"I thought you only had one flashlight at home."

Upon hearing Li Feng's words, Sha Zhu boasted to Li Feng with a smug look on his face.

"This radio isn't cheap."

"I had to pull a lot of strings to get this."

"How about it?".

"Isn't it stylish?"

Li Feng nodded and said.

"It's quite stylish."

"Why did you buy this thing?"

"You still like listening to the radio?"

Sha Zhu then explained to Li Feng with a smile.

"well".

"I just wanted to broaden my horizons, didn't I?"

"I heard from others that you can hear the policies and news of many countries on this radio."

"So I thought I'd buy it and give it a listen."

He Yushui listened to her brother bragging, and couldn't help but roll her eyes at Sha Zhu before turning to Li Feng and saying something.

"Brother Feng, don't listen to my brother's nonsense."

"He was bored at home alone at night, so he bought this radio to listen to the radio."

When Li Feng looked at Sha Zhu at this moment, a smile that only men would understand appeared on his face.

It's normal for a single guy like Sha Zhu to be bored at home.

Moreover, according to what Li Feng knew, Sha Zhu hadn't yet won over Zhu Ting, so Li Feng could understand why Sha Zhu bought a radio to relieve his longing.

Wasn't Sha Zhu's tragic end due to this very thing?

Listening to the radio at night to pass the time during a boring evening is understandable.

Otherwise, Jia Dongxu next door wouldn't have been able to have three children in just a few years.

Although the third child hasn't been born yet, this is the seed sown by Jia Dongxu.

Sha Zhu is still doing quite normally.

So Li Feng didn't laugh at Sha Zhu or anything like that.

At this moment, Sha Zhu simply tapped He Yushui on the head and said...

"Are you trying to expose my weaknesses like this?"

"You've really gotten to know things."

After Sha Zhu finished speaking, he turned on the radio.

When Sha Zhu turned on the radio, he started tuning it. As soon as he tuned to a channel, the radio immediately broadcast a report about the Daqing Oilfield Iron Man.

Upon hearing this, Li Feng couldn't help but sigh and say to Sha Zhu.

"Silly Pillar".

"you say.".

"Do you have people like that in your factory?"

Sha Zhu paused for a moment, then thought for a while, and then answered Li Feng somewhat uncertainly.

"There should be, right?"

"should.".

Actually, Shazhu wasn't too sure either.

Li Feng sighed and said.

"If we were all like him."

"Then our country will definitely be able to catch up with those developed countries very quickly."
