The police in the 60s love eating melons and working

Sun Tingmei didn't know that after her speech, Hu Xiangwei wanted to get married immediately tomorrow.

He was originally a little unhappy that his father forced him to marry Bai Wanqiu, but now he was glad that he registered and got the marriage certificate early.

Hu Xiangwei, who was driving a sports car, knew better what the environment was like outside. Although he was too lustful and overturned the car, he quickly cleaned up his mess in time!

Although the wedding was a bit hasty, it was a big happy event for his family after all, so it couldn't be sloppy. Uncle Hu didn't want to treat his son badly, so he told Aunt Chang: "There haven't been any happy events in our family for many years, so this wedding must be decent. Meat, fish, eggs, these must be there! Hard dishes can't be missing. In addition, you should exchange more white flour, at least one white flour bun for each person."

Aunt Chang sobbed with heartache and said, "How much money will this cost? Doesn't Bai Wanqiu know whether she deserves it? In order to marry her, our family even gave up a good daughter-in-law like Li Xiulian. His family didn't even have a dowry, and they treated her like a fool. She doesn't deserve it!"

Aunt Chang doesn't like this daughter-in-law at all.

She even suspected that Bai Wanqiu wanted to marry in and deliberately revealed the truth in front of Wang Zaohua. This was an attempt to force the emperor to abdicate!

She tricked me!

"She hasn't even walked into the house yet, and she's already spent over 40 or 50 yuan on me. What a sin! That black clinic is too expensive. It's just to get rid of a baby, but they charged me 30 yuan. Oh my god, they're just robbing me. What kind of disease is miscarriage for a woman? I was able to get out of bed on the third day after giving birth in the countryside, and I still had to work. Is she that expensive? It's just a miscarriage, but she still needs an egg and chicken soup every day. I really deserve her. If I wasn't afraid of causing trouble for my son, I would have given her a big fight. Whose daughter-in-law is having a grudge against the old woman? This bitch, I'll deal with her when she walks in."

Aunt Chang felt deeply resentful towards Bai Wanqiu and couldn't help but complain.

Uncle Hu rubbed his temples and didn't want to listen to her useless words. The money had already been spent, what else could he do.

He said, "Well, now you have something to do instead of complaining. By the way, have you found a cook? Did you find Chen Hu or Chen Humei?"

Aunt Chang's expression became subtle for a moment, and she hesitated and didn't say anything.

Uncle Hu asked seriously, "What's going on? You didn't find anyone? What are you thinking? It's such an important matter, why don't you hurry up?"

He looked at Chang Juhua helplessly, and really hated himself for listening too much to his parents and the matchmaker and marrying such a stupid person who was incompetent at nothing and was never satisfied with anything.

"I'm asking you a question! Are you mute?"

Aunt Chang complained again: "They all know that we are going to hold a banquet. We are neighbors, so they should take the initiative to come and mention it! Do I need to invite them? At this time, they should take the initiative to come to help. I am waiting for them to come. I have thought about it. We are all from the same compound. They must be embarrassed not to help. If that is true, if they really don't come, then we can go to them for help on the morning of the day... I will lead people, and they will have to help even if they don't want to! Since it is a temporary help, there is no money. This way, our family can save the money of hiring a cook."

Uncle Hu was stunned, looking at this idiot in disbelief. He resisted the urge to slap her, took a deep breath, and said, "Are you trying to save the cook's money?"

Aunt Chang immediately got excited and said, "You don't know, Chen Hu's price is quite high. If you ask him, it will cost ten yuan. This is too expensive. Even his sister Chen Humei, an old woman who really takes herself seriously, wants eight yuan. Even so, they have to leave a meat dish for them. This is unacceptable! Why give so much! I think it's the common people who spoil these cooks. We are all proletarians, we should help each other, how can we ask for money? It's really selfish!"

She would call both the brother and sister to help. If they didn't come, she would mobilize the neighbors to condemn them. They would have to come for the sake of face, and then her family would save money. If both of them came to work, they would save eighteen dollars!
Thinking of this, Aunt Chang felt particularly proud.

She is so smart!
Uncle Hu inhaled and exhaled again, staring at Aunt Chang, and scolded: "Are you a fool? If you don't make an appointment in advance, how can they come to work?"

Aunt Chang said as a matter of course: "If they don't come, they are not united with the masses. The neighbors are all here, and they feel embarrassed."

She doesn't understand. If it were a few decades later, this behavior would be called "moral kidnapping."

"You ignorant, stupid woman, you are such an idiot! How did I end up with someone like you? Who do you think you are? You unite the masses? Don't you know that the neighbors are annoyed by you? Besides, do you think the Chen Hu siblings are easy to mess with? Do you really think you can control them? You are such a clueless idiot, a fool that can be put in a museum!"

Uncle Hu was very angry.

He cursed, "Is your brain filled with shit? You are so unreasonable in doing things. Tell me, tell me, you took 200 yuan, what did you order? Where is the meat? How is the order?"

"I……"

Aunt Chang's eyes started to move around again.

Hu Xiangwei was not happy: "Mom, you are not engaged, are you? Didn't I ask you to go find Wang Ermaizi from the black market? You didn't go? This is my wedding, this is my reputation, please don't embarrass me."

Although he didn't think he would only get married once in his life, it was a matter of face.

"Mom, what about the fish and eggs? I haven't seen you bring back any dishes these days. How did you decide?"

Aunt Chang: "I...I..."

There were ten tables in total at his house this time. His old man meant that each table was worth ten yuan, and the remaining one hundred yuan was used to buy candies and wedding cigarettes for the cook, and to buy Bai Wanqiu a red dress and a pair of small leather shoes. He also gave her a few small red envelopes, so that she could look good!
Two hundred is more than enough. Most people don't spend that much on their wedding.

This was what her old man wanted, but Aunt Chang thought that she could save a hundred yuan from it as her own money.

There is one hundred left, fifty is used for the wedding banquet, and the remaining fifty is used to buy a skirt and two packs of cigarettes. Save as much as you can. Who knows, you can save even more.

She hesitated: "I am also doing this for the good of my family."

This time, both the father and son of the Hu family were stunned.

Uncle Hu: "You idiot! You haven't ordered anything? Then what are you going to do with the money! Wait, did you buy the things your daughter-in-law wanted? You didn't buy them either, did you?"

A quarrel broke out again, and it was particularly obvious late at night.

Uncle Hu was obviously very angry, and he cursed harshly, calling her a stupid woman, an embarrassing person, and a misfortune for her family!
Soon, people from all over the compound poked their heads out of the windows to watch the fun.

Look at this, look at what is happening!

What's going on here?

Although no one knew what had happened, everyone knew that it must be Aunt Chang Juhua causing trouble again.

Du Guoqiang and his family were leaning against the window, watching for a while. Du Guoqiang suddenly turned around and said, "Brother, wife, has his family come to ask you to be the chef?"

Chen Humei and his sister both shook their heads and said, "No, absolutely not."

Du Guoqiang sneered and said, "I think they want to get something for free."

Chen Hu: "...Although the words are rough, the logic is not rough, but your words are too rough."

Du Guoqiang chuckled and said, "I don't know their family? Just Aunt Chang..."

After a pause, Du Guoqiang said, "Brother and his wife, you two have to hold on. No matter what their family says, you can't agree to be the chef. I'm not being mean. I just think that there will be trouble at his wedding banquet."

"what?"

Several people in the family looked at Du Guoqiang in unison. Du Guoqiang said seriously, "Don't you know what kind of person Aunt Chang is? You go and be the chef. Don't do the work. If something goes wrong, she will blame you. Anyway, you can't take her job."

Chen Hu hesitated: "That's true, but we are the only family in our family compound with two cooks. It's impossible for his family not to come. If we don't go, won't it be bad for the neighbors?"

Chen Hu looks fierce and speaks little, so many people judge him by his appearance.

But in fact, Chen Hu is a very kind and upright person.

Du Guoqiang: "What's wrong with that? Just say it directly..."

Chen Humei: "So straightforward?"

Du Guoqiang: "It's blunt, but it works. Uncle Hu wants to save face. If you say this, he will be embarrassed to force it."

He said seriously, "We don't pick troubles, but we can't get involved in them either. Don't you know what kind of person Aunt Chang is? It's rare for her to not cause trouble. She won't stop making trouble just because it's her son's wedding."

The Chen siblings both nodded. They were not idiots. They had lived together for so many years, how could they say they didn’t know Aunt Chang!
At this moment, Du Juan suddenly spoke up and said, "Dad, can I go to the banquet?"

Du Guoqiang: "Why are you going? By then, there will definitely be one or two representatives from each family. If everyone goes, how many tables will it take?"

Du Juan's head drooped suddenly, and he said sadly, "There's no share for me."

Du Guoqiang laughed and said, "You still need to go to their house for a meal? I tell you, you may not eat well even if you go there."

It’s not that he was a prophet, but he really understood his old neighbor, Aunt Chang.

There's no way, I know it too well.

Du Juan: "It seems so."

There was still a quarrel on the other side. Uncle Hu's voice was a little lower, but Aunt Chang was crying loudly.

Du Guoqiang leaned on his wife's shoulder and sighed: "My wife is still the best."

Chen Humei was proud: "You found me, that means you did good deeds in your previous life."

"That's not."

The two of them were so sticky that Chen Hu and Du Juan looked at each other and left with no expression on their faces.

Du Juan: She would rather not watch this fun, and doesn't want to watch her parents show their affection. It's so disgusting, as if she accidentally swallowed a big piece of fat meat, pure fat, not cooked well.

The cuckoo swished back to the house.

Chen Hu also hurried back to the house.

Du Guoqiang's little man's attitude is really disgusting.

Du Guoqiang: "Jealousy, all jealousy. Look at how much they are excited. It's clear that they are jealous."

Chen Humei: "Don't worry about them..."

His family stood at the window watching the fun and did not forget to show their love.

Next door to the next door, that is, the Wang family, the master of the Wang family, Wang Chunsheng, was on a business trip. Speaking of this, although Uncle Hu always said that he didn't know about the tricks that Chang Juhua had done, but, Uncle Hu's words were really a bit guilty.

How come a husband and wife live under the same roof without knowing anything about each other?

But if this statement is applied to Wang Chunsheng, it is more accurate.

Wang Chunsheng works in the Municipal Bureau. He is very busy and travels a lot, so all the family affairs are taken care of by his wife Guan Xiuzhen. Guan Xiuzhen also has a job. She works as a train attendant on the line to Harbin. She is away for several days each time.

So ever since Mrs. Wang brought her daughter Wang Chunyan and grandson Xiaoshun here, Mrs. Wang has been the head of this family.

Back then, the women in the compound wanted to drive Wang Chunyan away, but the couple disagreed. In fact, it was also due to their own considerations. Their jobs were not at home, so there was always someone to help them at home. Besides, Wang Wangshi and Wang Chunyan were still good at pretending in front of Wang Chunsheng and his wife.

But when the couple were not at home, both Wang Wangshi and Wang Chunyan's true natures were revealed.

At this moment, Wang Chunsheng and Guan Xiuzhen were not at home. Wang Wang leaned against the window like a boneless person, watching the excitement across the street, not caring about what was said. She pouted and muttered, "Your uncle Hu is such a good man. It's hard to find a man like him even with a lantern. It's really a good man without a good wife and a bad man looking for a brothel. Look, how can old hag Chang Juhua be worthy of Old Hu? I really feel sorry for Old Hu. You see, I'm such a good old woman, but when I was young, I met a drunk and violent ghost like your father. Chang Juhua is so mean and vicious, but she found such a good one. It's really unfair. Look, she can even make a fuss about her son's marriage. Who knows what she will do next."

Wang Chunyan: "People like them will get divorced sooner or later."

She rolled her eyes and said, "I think Uncle Hu should find someone like my mother, gentle and virtuous."

"You kid, what are you talking about?"

Mrs. Wang hesitated for a moment, but her smile became even brighter.

She sighed and said, "I'm so old now. In fact, whether I have any feelings for her or not is secondary. I just want to help the family. How can I help if I don't have a job? I hope that if I get married again, I can marry someone with better conditions. It would be even better if I can get Zhaodi a job. Zhaodi is not young anymore. She is only fifteen now. There is no rush, but she will face the situation of going to the countryside in two years. I love my child the most. How can I bear to let her go?"

Wang Chunyan: "Mom..."

She held Wang Wang's hand: "I know, I love her too."

Zhaodi was pasting paper boxes to make money. When she heard this, she smiled with joy.

Her grandmother and her aunt are better than her mother!
The excitement of the evening lasted for half the night, and everyone enjoyed watching it for a long time.

But to be honest, the Hu family has been dancing a lot more happily recently.

Du Juan rode her bike to work early in the morning and saw Aunt Chang also leaving the house with a stern face. She saw Du Juan and called out, "Du Juan, wait a minute. Give me a ride."

You really take yourself too seriously.

Du Juan: "It's too late to go to work!"

Whoosh, he rushed out.

She's just not smart enough to care about it.

Seeing Du Juan riding away, Aunt Chang stamped her feet and said unhappily: "This damn girl doesn't know how to respect the elderly and love the young. She is not a good person and will never get married!"

She cursed and swore, but failed to get a ride. Finally, she took out five cents and prepared to take the bus.

Damn it, I could have saved that nickel!
Du Juan didn't know how Aunt Chang cursed people, but if she knew, she wouldn't be surprised, after all, Aunt Chang had always been like that.

Who doesn’t know who!
Du Juan hasn't been in the office for long, but people in their office are coming and going like people walking through a city gate. There are three of them now, Fatty Zhang, Du Juan, and Uncle Lan.

As expected, they were not wrong; it was Uncle Lan who returned.

However, although Uncle Lan came back, he was called away again before he could even sit down.

It seems that he has been gone for the past few days.

Du Juan was stunned. She hadn't even said a few words to the master yet, so why did he leave again?

Du Juan's eyes were blank. Fatty Zhang smiled and said, "This is quite normal. Uncle Lan is a know-it-all. Usually when we need to check some old calendar people and things, we look for him."

Du Juan: “Oh.”

Du Juan originally thought that it was only his group that was like this, but after careful observation, he found that the other groups in their institute were also like this, and that person was also running back and forth and was very busy.

"Lao Zhang, Du Juan, there was a fight in Gouweiba Alley. I'm here to report it. You guys go over and deal with it."

"Ok."

Two people set out immediately.

Although it seems a bit pitiful to go from six people to two people, it does not stop them from being busy.

The two of them rode their bikes to Gouweiba Hutong. Fatty Zhang said, "Many of the people living here are employees of the thermos factory."

Most of the communities in their city are divided according to factories.

So generally, even if they are neighbors, sometimes they will not only contact the police, but also the factory security department.

"If the security department is here, we will cooperate with each other. If the security department of their factory is not here, we have to be more assertive and not give people the impression that we are easy to talk to. The easier you talk to them, the more they will think you are easy to bully. This is especially true for some older people who came from the old society."

"it is good!"

The two men rode their bikes quickly to the compound where the fight took place. However, when they arrived, Du Juan smiled and said, "I'm familiar with this compound."

Fatty Zhang: “???”

Du Juan: "My good friend lives in this courtyard. I have been here many times."

There was a commotion in the yard, and someone shouted, "The police are here!"

Suddenly, the yard, which was noisy just now, became quiet.

Everyone looked towards the door. Tian Miaomiao, who was watching the excitement, saw Du Juan and waved happily, which was considered a greeting. However, it did not delay her work. Du Juan winked at her.

Fatty Zhang: "What's going on? Who reported the case? What's going on with you?"

"Comrade Public Security, my family is wronged. This old man insisted that my eldest grandson stole his chickens. How could I let him ruin my eldest grandson's reputation like this? We are going to fight now... But, but we are just negotiating in a friendly manner."

"Comrade, I'm not wronging his family. Look at the grease spots on his eldest grandson's body. My family is an old hen that lays eggs. Hens lay eggs, and eggs lay hens, and our family will have children and grandchildren. My family has suffered a huge loss. Is it wrong for me to ask her family to pay compensation?"

Middle-aged men also feel aggrieved.

"My grandson didn't steal!"

"It was your grandson who stole it!"

The two men got into an argument.

Fatty Zhang: "Okay, what are you arguing about? Where is the director? Is the director here?"

Guan Yuaner went to work.

Fatty Zhang: "Dujuan, go check on the chicken coop. Where's the kid? Ask him to come out for a while."

"My child didn't steal it. Maybe his chicken ran away by itself..."

"Whether your child stole something depends on the evidence, not just your words. Whether the chicken was stolen or ran away, we will know after checking."

The old lady who was arrogant just now hesitated and whispered: "The child is still young, what does he know? Even if, even if he is greedy..."

Dujuan looked back at the old lady. Needless to say, it was obvious that the old lady felt guilty.

She went over to check the chicken coop. The coop had buttons on it. If someone hadn't opened it, the chickens would never have gotten out. There was also a small piece of cloth stuck to the side of the coop. Du Juan: "Uncle Zhang, there's a clue here."

Fatty Zhang went over immediately. He understood everything. Someone scratched his clothes when opening the chicken coop.

"what?"

"It looks like it was clothes. Whose clothes were scratched?"

"Wouldn't it be obvious right away? Just look at the clothes."

"That's right!"

The victim suddenly looked at the little boy in the yard, and sure enough, his sleeve was torn.

Okay, the truth is revealed without further investigation.

"You still don't admit it. Look, the evidence is all here. This little thief in your family is not a human being. Your family..."

"You can't ruin my grandson's reputation..."

Seeing that they were about to quarrel again, Fatty Zhang scolded, "Alright, what are you doing? You are making a fuss, aren't you? He stole things at such a young age, and you blindly defended him instead of teaching him well. You are not loving your child, you are harming him. We already have the evidence, and you are still making trouble? Little boy, tell me, did you steal the chicken? Things have come to this point. If you lie, we will take you away."

"Yes, I stole it..." Wow!
Although everyone knew it, they were still speechless when they heard him admit it.

His family is not poor, so why does he do this?

"kid……"

Fatty Zhang was not polite and spoke in a very unfriendly tone, and he quickly criticized the child. The child's parents were also not polite.

"If you don't take care of it now, the prison will help you take care of your child in the future. If he does something wrong, he must be educated. Not only do you not educate him, but you also protect him recklessly. It's really..."

Fatty Zhang took action and Du Juan stood aside.

She also had a stern face and looked very serious.

Such a trivial matter was basically settled after a settlement of compensation and apology. Although a chicken is not cheap, it is a child after all, and no one must be arrested. They coordinated the two parties. The boy's grandmother paid five dollars with a grievance.

A chicken is certainly not worth five bucks.

But since it is compensation, it has a bit of a punitive nature, so it will be a little more than the original price.

Dujuan silently kept this in mind.

She still has a lot to learn.

The matter was handled quickly. After it was over, Tian Miaomiao came over. She nudged Du Juan and said, "You are good. You look very capable."

Du Juan said proudly: "No, don't you see who I am?"

She smiled and then said, "I'm still busy. I'll come and play with you when I have a day off."

Tian Miaomiao: "I know. Go ahead and get busy. Don't delay work."

Dujuan nodded.

Although she wanted to gossip with her friends, Du Juan remembered that it was still work time. She quickly followed Fatty Zhang out of the compound, but before they had gone far, she saw Aunt Chang again.

Aunt Chang was carrying a bag and trotting stealthily through the alley.

Du Juan: “Huh?”

Fatty Zhang: "Is that Aunt Chang?"

Du Juan nodded: "It's her, this is..."

Fatty Zhang whispered, "There's a black market boss living behind this street. I guess he's going there to buy something."

Du Juan's eyes widened instantly and she whispered, "You know all this?"

Fatty Zhang: "Your father knows about this, too, right? Actually, everyone in each jurisdiction has some idea of ​​the big and small black market bosses. But if it's not a big deal, basically no one will do anything. Although the black market has been banned, it's not a big deal to exchange a little when you're short of food and drink. Besides, a black market gives people a place to buy and exchange things, which is also conducive to stability. If they really don't leave any room for them, it will lead to instability."

Dujuan nodded slightly.

"I see."

She understands this.

Du Juan glanced back and said, "She runs really fast."

Fatty Zhang: "This kind of thing is necessary."

Dujuan thought so too, so the two of them rode their bikes back. Just as they got back, they heard that there was another fight in the train station square. Well, then they continued on their way.

Work is really busy!

Du Juan was busy all day, but she was not in a hurry to go home in the evening. Instead, she went to the grocery store: "Zhang Li, Zhang Li..."

Zhang Li: "Why are you here?"

She came out quickly and asked quietly, "Did you get the eggs?"

Du Juan nodded and said, "Find a bag."

"Oh yes, yes, I'll get it right away."

Dujuan stuffed the eggs into his canvas bag, which he was going to use himself.

"Did you change it when you returned to the village?"

Dujuan nodded, blushing a little, she lied.

However, these are insignificant matters, they are all white lies.

"Thirty. Do you want all of them?"

"I want both! I have to have both!"

Dujuan’s canvas bag can hold thirty of them. If it could hold more, there would be more.

Zhang Li stuffed the money into Du Juan's pocket, and Du Juan quietly put it away without hesitation, and asked, "How is your mother? Is she well?"

Zhang Li: "Much better. When your mother came over a few days ago, she gave her 20 eggs."

She said: "My mother's health is just from overwork, so she has to take care of herself. Eating eggs every day to replenish her body is fine."

Zhang Li's family doesn't have many children, but they have a sick child, so their life is still quite tight.

"How's your job going? Are you used to it?"

Du Juan: “It’s pretty good.”

"Oh, by the way, I have something to ask you. Is there a person named Ge Changzhu in your compound?"

Du Juan nodded: "Yes, why did you ask about him?"

Zhang Li: "A relative of mine introduced me to a guy. He said he's pretty good. Can you tell me about him?"

Du Juan: "What did the introducer say?"

She didn't say it rashly, but asked it first.

"Ge Changzhu's family consists of four. His mother passed away early. His father raised the three siblings. His father was a boiler operator in a machinery factory, and now he has taken over and is also a boiler operator. His eldest sister is a police officer, and his second sister is unemployed, but she already has a partner and will be married at the end of this year. The man's family is well off. His eldest sister was stabbed at work and is said to be unable to have children in the future. So she will not get married and will live with us when the time comes. Although he has an older sister-in-law, his sister has a high salary and will be responsible for supporting the family and the elderly, so we can save the money after we get married. He is the only son in his family, so naturally everything depends on him. Also, he said that I can bring my mother and my sister with me when I get married."

Zhang Li's family conditions are like this, it's not good or bad, but what she wants most is that she can take her mother and sister with her when she gets married, which is great.

Although burning the boiler is not an easy job, it is very dirty. But she is not particularly good at selling pickles, and she smells like pickles. It is good to have a formal job now. Others have to go to the countryside.

Now I have a job, no matter what it is, it's great.

Others will be so envious.

Du Juan saw her eyes full of expectation staring at him, thought for a moment, and said seriously: "He lives in the building behind our house. The situation is correct. There are indeed four people in the family, a father and three children. But his house has nothing to do with Uncle Ge. It was allocated by Sister Ge. She is Ge Changzhu's eldest sister. You should be able to guess what I mean. She didn't work for a long time when the house was allocated, so his house is not big, about 30 square meters. I don't know how his family lives specifically, I haven't seen it. But if you want to take your mother and your sister there, there will definitely be no space for them."

There is an old saying that it is better to destroy a temple than to break up a marriage. However, although Du Juan and Zhang Li are not the best in the world, they are also good friends and have known each other since childhood. She must give them a reminder.

"Ge Changzhu is about the same age as my brother Wei Zhong, about 27 or 28 years old. In the early years, he was interested in Sister Fang Xiaoya from our compound and had been pursuing her. At that time, Fang Xiaoya didn't like him. About three years ago, Fang Xiaoya got married and moved away, and then he started going on blind dates. However, he always compared others with Fang Xiaoya, so his blind dates were never successful."

After Du Juan finished speaking, Zhang Li fell silent.

Soon, she suddenly realized and said, "Ge Changzhu is 27 or 28 years old, so his second sister is not young either? Are they planning to get married?"

Du Juan: "His second sister seems to be one or two years older than him. The age difference between the three siblings is not much, only one or two years. His second sister had been with a few people before, but I don't know why it didn't work out until now."

She was still in school at that time, and her family wouldn't tell her about these things.

Zhang Li frowned after hearing this, but it was not because of Ge Erjie's personal problems. Instead, she judged from the family's affairs that this family might not be so easy to get along with.

She frowned tightly, thought for a while, and said, "I understand. Thank you, Du Juan."

She started working early and took over the business after graduating from junior high school.

She knows more about the ways of the world than young people like Du Juan who have just entered the society. Most people may not tell her these trivial questions. After all, who wants to cause trouble? The Ge family's conditions are not deceptive, but most people are still unwilling to tell.

Once you meet someone who is ignorant and then goes to confront the matchmaker, you will end up betraying the person.

Dujuan is very loyal by telling the truth.

Du Juan was curious: "What do you think?"

Zhang Li: "I'll meet him when the time comes. Although his family isn't as good as they say, I know my own situation well. My family is also burdened with a lot of money. I choose him and he chooses me. I'll go see him and then make a decision. If he's a good person and we can work hard together, then everything will be fine. If he's not, then forget it! Blind dates don't mean you'll spend your whole life together just by meeting him."

Du Juan nodded: "That's right."

Zhang Li also became curious: "You are working now, has anyone introduced you to a date?"

Du Juan shook her head: "No!"

Zhang Li was shocked!

In her opinion, the people who want to introduce Du Juan to someone should line up from here to the Great Wall of Beijing. Du Juan is pretty, tall and pretty! She has a formal job and her family conditions are good, so how could there be no one to introduce her to someone!

Zhang Li was confused: "How is this possible! Are you kidding me?"

Du Juan shook her head: "Really not."

Zhang Li: “…”

With her conditions, she can get an introduction every month on average, but Du Juan has no one to introduce her to. Is this reasonable? It's too unreasonable!
"how so."

Du Juan was quite surprised: "What's so strange about this? Besides, I'm not in a hurry. I'm only eighteen and haven't celebrated my birthday yet. It's not too late to get married on the twenty-eight!"

Zhang Li's mouth twitched: "..."

Suddenly, Zhang Li reacted.

Du Juan is really different from her. She is tall, beautiful and has a good family background. Most people will not introduce ordinary people to her. If anyone dares to ask this question, isn't it an insult? The adults in his family who protect their children will make trouble.

Think about Uncle Chen who is almost two meters tall, Mother Dujuan who is almost one meter eighty, and Father Dujuan who is secretly calculating and scheming!

Zhang Li: “…”I really don’t dare to mess with ordinary people.

Therefore, under normal conditions, it is really not introduced to Dujuan, and then the choices are few.

Dujuan is over 1.7 meters tall. She is 1.6 meters tall and feels very small next to Dujuan.

Dujuan is estimated to be 1,723 years old, maybe even older.

She is so tall, you can’t introduce someone short, right?

From this perspective, it’s hard for Du Juan to find a partner even though she has good conditions.

Zhang Li: "I have a difficult time finding a partner because of my family problems, but you are looking for someone who is too good."

Du Juan: "Why are you in such a hurry to get married? You are only eighteen."

Of course Zhang Li knew, but didn't she just want someone to lean on? It was really hard to support the family by herself. But Zhang Li didn't say these things, just said: "I hate getting married, don't I? Okay, okay, you should leave quickly, I have to get off work too, if I go back late, my mother and sister will be worried."

Du Juan: "Okay, yeah, when is your blind date?"

Zhang Li: "It's not decided yet. If it works out, I will definitely tell you as soon as possible."

She added: "I'll tell you even if it doesn't work."

Du Juan: “Okay!”

None of her classmates are married yet.

If Zhang Li can succeed, she will probably be the first one.

Du Juan herself was not in a hurry at all. She was not yet an adult, so why should she be in a hurry? Besides, men! If you think about it carefully, they are not very reliable. Although she had not been working for a long time, Du Juan had already felt something.

She rode her bike all the way home, and just as she entered the compound, she was stopped: "Dujuan. What are you doing at home? This smells so good, doesn't it? Your uncle is cooking meat at home."

Dujuan: “Ah!”

She was surprised, then she thought of something and said, "It should be a job for someone else. I'll go home and take a look."

She ran upstairs in a flash.

Such a domineering meaty aroma.

Huh?
Du Juan was curious: "Uncle Ding, why are you eating at my doorstep?"

Uncle Ding who lived on their floor was squatting at his doorstep with his bowl of rice in hand.

Dujuan was very confused.

Uncle Ding: "I'll just eat your meat and save the vegetables."

Du Juan: “…”

She twitched her lips speechlessly and said, "You don't have to be so frugal, do you?"

Uncle Ding shook his head in disapproval and said, "You don't understand, kid. If you can't afford to be poor, but can't plan well, you will be poor."

Du Juan: “…”

Speaking of which, Uncle Ding is also a well-known figure in their compound, and he is famous for being stingy!
Other people are stingy because they are too poor, but he is not like that. He does it purely out of passion.

He has three sons and two daughters. All five children are married and moved out, and all have jobs. His family treats all children equally. No matter their children, they all have to pay pension money every year. One child has to pay 20 yuan a year, and five children have to pay 100 yuan. He himself is officially retired, and his monthly pension is 35 yuan. After retirement, he now works as a temporary worker in the street office, cleaning toilets and removing feces, which is another salary.

His old lady worked as a temporary worker in a machinery factory, sweeping toilets and carrying feces, and she was very hardworking.

At this time, no city dweller with a bit of dignity would be willing to do this, but Uncle Ding didn't mind.

His motto is: Make money, no worries.

It can be said that, if you really count them all, even Du Juan's family is not as rich as his.

But this old man is stingy, and his old lady is also stingy.

Birds of a feather flock together, and these two really live in harmony.

Du Juan pursed her lips and said, "Then please make way, I want to go home."

Uncle Ding: “Yes.”

As soon as Dujuan opened the door, a burst of fragrance came out, the smell became more obvious. Uncle Ding quickly took a few mouthfuls of rice, squinted his eyes slightly, and ate happily.

Du Juan: “…”

I don't understand you, but I'm shocked.

"Dujuan is back, wash your hands and have dinner."

Du Juan: "Okay."

She whispered, "Uncle Ding is at the door."

The whole family didn't care: "It's okay, we're used to it."

Because his family's cooks delicious food, Uncle Ding often squats at the door to enjoy the delicious food! They are all used to it, but Du Juan didn't pay much attention to it because she was in school.

Chen Hu served the dishes. Tonight it was three fresh vegetables brought back from the village, topped with meat slices, which smelled delicious.

Because of the system, his family now eats pure rice.

No whole grains were added.

The family sat down, and Chen Hu said, "Uncle Hu asked me to prepare a banquet for him today, but I refused."

Chen Humei was shocked: "Ah, he came to you? He came to me too? I refused too."

Du Juan: “Ah?”

Her eyes rolled around.

Chen Humei: "To be frank, Aunt Chang is unreliable. I'm afraid if something goes wrong, I won't be able to explain it clearly, and then people in the same compound will be embarrassed and unable to get along. It's better not to get involved. I believe Uncle Hu can understand."

Du Juan muttered, "If you put it that way, he has to understand even if he doesn't."

Chen Hu: "That's pretty much what I said."

Du Juan: "Ah, speaking of which, I saw Aunt Chang today. She went to Gouweiba Hutong to buy something..."

"What!" Du Guoqiang snorted in shock, and then said, "It's over, it's over, it's over, we can't eat his banquet anymore."

Several people looked at him in confusion: I don’t understand! Please help me!
