Siheyuan: Rebirth of a comfortable life starts with Shazhu

Therefore, half of Yan Bugui's good reputation for being a good parent was earned by his eldest daughter-in-law.

But in the yard, there was really no one around Liu Haizhong who could bring him fame.

Obviously Liu Haizhong has done a lot, but his wife is not good at speaking and doesn't know how to promote Liu Haizhong at all.

Just like after Liu Guangtian went to jail, Liu Haizhong sent money to his second son every month.

But no one knew about this, let alone in Nanluoguxiang, even in the alleys.

Liu Haizhong was also a person who could not explain, so Liu Guangfu scolded him for only caring about the eldest brother and not caring about the life and death of the second and third brothers. Liu Haizhong just sat there.

Liu Haizhong was just holding on, but he felt very miserable.

After all, he has given so much to this family, but now none of his sons can understand him.

He has now completely given up on Liu Guangfu.

Liu Guangfu had been a son-in-law for more than seven months when his daughter-in-law gave birth to a big fat boy for the Liu family. Liu Haizhong never thought of going to see the eldest grandson.

Even though there were constant rumors outside, Liu Haizhong didn't even think about explaining anything.

Anyway, he didn't choose his daughter-in-law, so no matter how big the scandal is, it has nothing to do with him.

He doesn't count on the second child either.

Liu Haizhong has actually always had a clear understanding of his three sons.

The third brother, Liu Guangfu, is just a coward and not that bad.

But in Liu Haizhong's heart, Liu Guangtian was like an ungrateful person who could never be satisfied.

For example, even though Liu Guangtian has been in prison for a long time, he still sends five dollars every month.

But Liu Guangtian has never written a letter home so far.

Liu Haizhong has always valued the eldest brother Liu Guangqi.

In Liu Haizhong's opinion, the reason why Liu Guangqi ended up like this today was because he chose the wrong person at the beginning and because he, as his father, was a drag.

If he had been able to seize the opportunity and become a small leader when the country was just liberated, his eldest son would not have been so hasty in choosing that partner.

If Liu Guangqi stayed in Sijiu City, even if he was not as good as He Yuzhu, he should still be more than enough compared to Xu Damao and Goudan.

Emotional things are sometimes so funny.

It is obvious to outsiders that Liu Guangqi is the biggest ungrateful person in the Liu family.

But you can’t see it through the bangs.

When Liu Guangqi was in his prime two years ago, he despised the reputation of this courtyard, including his parents.

Even when he was almost transferred back to the old city, he had told Liu Haizhong clearly in advance that even if he was transferred back, he would not be able to move back to the courtyard.

They said they disliked the reputation of this courtyard, but at that time Liu Guangqi did not say that they would wait until the housing application was approved before letting Liu Haizhong and his wife move out and live with them.

If this isn’t an ungrateful person, then what is?
But Liu Haizhong ignored it intentionally or unintentionally.

Liu Haizhong didn't think about anything else now, he just wanted to get Liu Guangqi back. It would be best if he could be like Goudan, and become the director of a small factory under the street.

This is why I targeted He Yuzhu.

It’s because the whole Nanluoguxiang knows about the relationship between He Yuzhu and Director Wang.

The two families get along with each other as elders and juniors.

Although He Yuzhu did not help at all with Goudan's return, the Ma family also explained to the outside world again and again that it was Director Wang who had always been keeping an eye on Ma Aiguo and Goudan's return to Sijiu City was a normal transfer. However, Liu Haizhong was the first one who did not believe it.

Strangely enough, Liu Haizhong is the least socially intelligent person in the yard.

But Liu Haizhong is also the one who has the "clearest" understanding of the workplace and the most superstitious about power. In his opinion, if the He family is willing to help, then transferring Liu Guangqi back will only take a word from He Yuzhu.

What bothers him now is that He Yuzhu seems to dislike him very much.

And he couldn't find an opportunity to get closer to the He family.

He stood awkwardly at the door of Liu's house. Everyone else was busy or chatting in groups of three or five. Some neighbors who came into the yard to watch the fun were pointing at him vaguely.

He was like a clown, isolated from the fun.

"It seems that Master Liu has set his sights on you!

Tsk tsk, it's different when you're in a high position, there are always people trying to flatter you wherever you go." Guo Lei and He Yuzhu had actually noticed something unusual about Liu Hai a long time ago, so Guo Lei also joked about it with He Yuzhu.

Liu Haizhong glanced at them from time to time. Although he was standing still, his body was leaning towards them, as if he wanted to hear their private conversation from several meters away in this noisy scene.

He Yuzhu hit Guo Lei again, and also laughed and cursed in a low voice: "Have you never encountered such a thing?

"When it's almost the New Year or other festivals, the leadership building of your supply and marketing cooperative is always full of people coming to ask for favors, right?"

Guo Lei subconsciously curled his lips, looking disgusted, but then leaned close to He Yuzhu's ear and said, "It's all the same. The less confident a person is, the more they like to disgust others at that time."

Guo Lei's words immediately revealed the truth about social occasions.

People who are truly confident and have a strong backing will generally not come to them with gifts to beg them during festivals or New Year holidays.

Even if a capable person like Lao Li wants to ask the supply and marketing cooperative for some internal goods, he will not follow the quota.

I had a meal and a drink with the person in charge of this matter at the supply and marketing cooperative early on, and we agreed on the matter.

As for some more capable people, people come to them begging for things.

Just like at the end of last year, on He Yuzhu's side, the Sijiucheng Pig Farm took the initiative to call He Yuzhu's Quality Inspection Department to send pigs at the unit's purchasing price.

So last year, although He Yuzhu had no connections in the Quality Inspection Department where he worked, the benefits were still much better than those in other departments.

The small treasury of other departments cannot be used up, and the small treasury of the Quality Inspection Department is not enough.

He Yuzhu received a lot of calls because of calls like those from the pig farm.

The electric fan factory in Tianjin said that they had purchased some extra seafood and asked He Yuzhu if he wanted some.

The light industry above the toy factory also brought a lot of tobacco and alcohol to the Quality Inspection Department.

This is the pull of various relationships.

He Yuzhu’s own small treasury was not enough, so he asked several other departments with which he had good relations to “share” the burden.

The commune where the farm was originally located also called to ask if his unit wanted fish.

Of course, some of those who begged to send gifts to He Yuzhu were attracted by He Yuzhu's connections in foreign trade.

Some of them are truly grateful to He Yuzhu.

Just like the commune, He Yuzhu has nothing to do with them now.

But they still remember He Yuzhu's kindness in introducing the brick kiln factory to them, and they always call to greet him during the holidays.

Occasionally, he would ask the passing cars to bring some game to the He family.

They just leave and go, and won't even give money.

The idea is to establish a long-term relationship. In case the brick kiln goes out of business in the future, the commune leaders can still count on He Yuzhu to come up with some money-making ideas.

Those who seek help from Guo Lei during the New Year and other holidays are those who are not presentable in the workplace.
