Siheyuan: Traveling through three years to gain the power of a palm

Jiang Yu said confidently that having a powerful second brother as a role model at home, her vision has also been broadened.

"And mom, if getting married only lowers my quality of life and makes me miserable, then there's no point in getting married."

Although Shen Yue also agreed with this, she still said with a smile, "Heretical theory."

"This is not a fallacy. This is what my second brother told me."

"What else did the second brother say to you?"

Jiang Yu did not hide anything and told Jiang Fan the truth behind some of the stories he had told her.

What? The Cowherd is just a hooligan. He stole the Weaver Girl's clothes and threatened her to marry him and give birth to his children. What's the difference between this and trafficking women? He is simply a bastard.

In the Dream of the Red Chamber, the love between Jia Baoyu and Lin Daiyu seems heartbreaking, but in fact, it is all Jia Baoyu's own fault. He does not really love Lin Daiyu, he just likes her beauty.

Moreover, Jia Baoyu has no real talent or knowledge. He is just a gigolo who relies on his family for food. He is weak, incompetent and irresponsible.

There are also some other widely circulated love stories, which have become different in Jiang Fan's mouth.

This made the usually gentle Shen Yue a little upset. "This second brother taught Xiaoyu something. Although there is some truth in it, it's a bit too far-fetched."

However, it did broaden Jiang Yu's horizons and prevent him from being blinded by some simple scams, so it was somewhat useful.

Although Jiang Yu did not explicitly say that Jiang Fan was going to get married, she did say that this house would be used as a wedding house.

The people in the yard discussed it and guessed it almost right, and the news that Jiang Fan was going to get married was spread.

Some families with girls of marriageable age all sighed, saying that among his peers living near the courtyard, none of their families had better conditions than Jiang Fan.

This news also touched the hearts of many people, among whom Jia Zhang was particularly excited.

"How dare Jiang Fan! That's my house, my house. Why does it have the surname Jiang now?"

Jia Zhang said angrily that although she tried her best to deny the fact that she had lived with Yi Zhonghai, she did not want to deny her relationship with Yi Zhonghai's property.

Otherwise, she wouldn't have been so angry when Sha Zhu went to accept the property.

Now, more than half a year has passed, and Jia Zhang's heart is restless again. The idea of ​​seducing He Daqing has been rekindled, or it can be said that it has never been extinguished.

"No, I have to find a chance to take down He Daqing. I can't live with the Jia family anymore. Jia Zhangshi doesn't sound any better than He Zhangshi."

Qin Huairu didn't know what Jia Zhang was thinking, but she was a little scared when she saw the increasingly sinister face showing a terrifying ferocious look. Xiao Dang even hugged her legs and sobbed.

After Qin Huairu squatted down and comforted Xiaodang, her face changed and she shouted at Jia Zhang, "Old man, calm down a bit! Can't you see that you scared Xiaodang?"

After hearing this, Jia Zhang immediately returned to her expressionless look and sat there, neither refuting nor arguing with Qin Huairu.

Ever since Jia Dongxu slapped her a few times, Jia Zhang has become a complete outsider in this family.

Aside from Bang Geng occasionally speaking to her, Jia Dongxu and the others ignored her. He had basically not spoken to her in the past six months.

In addition, Jia Zhang was not full and had no strength to move, so she could only stay in bed, talking to herself and thinking about random things.

Now Jia Zhang looks like an old witch, with loose skin and droopy eyes. If you use her to scare children, they will become silent.

Chapter 440: The Show-Off Liu Haizhong

The news that Jiang Fan was getting married made Aunt Meng a little anxious, because Jiang Fan was more than a year younger than Liu Guangqi.

Now he is about to get married, but Liu Guangqi's matter is still not settled, which makes Aunt Meng, who has regained her motherly love for Liu Guangqi, very worried.

In any era, parents who do not urge their children to get married are a minority. Aunt Meng made up her mind to have a good talk with Liu Haizhong tonight, and he would have to agree even if he disagreed.

Aunt Meng is now quite confident. The reason is that she has found a way to convince Liu Haizhong, and that is to sleep with him!

At the steel rolling mill, Liu Haizhong entered the workshop today, just like he was at home yesterday. He followed the leader's pace in the factory, walking with great vigor and energy, as if he were in another world.

But his behavior is still a little funny in the eyes of others.

Only a few people noticed the new shoes on Liu Haizhong's feet, and his eldest disciple Bu Xiaozi was one of them.

He secretly told his fellow apprentices, "Praise Master's shoes later, okay?"

"clear."

As soon as they met, Bu Xiaozi complimented him, "Master, your steps are quite like those of a leader."

Liu Haizhong was extremely happy, but he still pretended to be doubtful and asked, "Is there?"

Someone answered, "Yes, that pace is so vigorous."

"Yes! A leader should act like a leader, and walk with great vigor and energy, as if from another world." Liu Haizhong proudly showed off the two idioms he had just learned. He had spent the whole morning memorizing these two words.

"If you ask me, Master walks like a leader. Nine points of that is Master's temperament, and one point is these shoes. Look at Master's new shoes, they fit so well. Master, they must have been made for you by your mistress, right?" Bu Xiao praised himself.

Liu Haizhong looked at Bu Xiaozi with great satisfaction. What did it mean to be a good disciple? This was a good disciple. He had finally waited for someone to come and ask about the shoes.

He laughed heartily, "Hahaha. Bu Xiaozi, Bu Xiaozi, you guessed wrong this time. These shoes were not made for me by your master's wife. They were bought as a gift by my eldest son, Liu Guangqi, for my fiftieth birthday."

"Master is indeed a good educator, and he has really brought up the children well."

"That's right, that's right."

"We should learn from our master."

Liu Haizhong was very pleased with the flattery from everyone and he enjoyed the feeling very much.

But no one else cared, only his disciples complimented him.

……

The bell rang and the steel mill closed for the day.

The workers finally had a bit more joy on their faces after work these days, and the atmosphere after get off work was more lively, not as dull as before.

All this was due to the bumper harvest, and Li Huaide ran around and used his connections to get a batch of grain and meat, which improved the quality of the food in the canteen.

This is enough to make the workers happy. The vast majority of working people are so simple and unpretentious.

On the way home, Jiang Fan asked Jiang Yue, "Does your procurement department also require task indicators now?"

Jiang Yue nodded. This past year since he started working, he had truly experienced the difficulties of a buyer's job, especially in years of disaster.

The amount of food and supplies he brought back that year was very few, and most of them were found for him by Jiang Fan and Xu Damao.

"I have a friend who has some bacon and dried goods to sell. I'll get them back to you tomorrow."

"Thank you, Brother Fan."

Jiang Fan waved his hand. He also wanted to collect the money. He could also test the waters and open up sales channels for the steel mill.

I didn’t dare to take big things this year for fear of problems, but now it’s different, I can slowly test it out.

In fact, the unplanned material purchases that Jiang Yue was involved in were not strictly traced in terms of source.

Even when purchasing in the countryside, the amount collected in the village is one number, and the amount reported to the factory is another number.

It doesn't matter if you report less. After all, life is hard and it's normal not to get much.

The more you report, the better. You will get credit, your leaders will get credit, and the workers will have good food to eat.

As long as you are not reported or caught engaging in improper transactions, there will be no big problem.

Occasional minor problems are not a problem if supplies can be obtained.

However, the purchasing department is a place where resources are fought over. There are only so many villages around the city, and not many of them are capable of conducting transactions.

The staff of the purchasing department all worked their butts off to have a few stable plots of land. If Jiang Yue took out too many things at once, he would easily arouse jealousy.

After a brief thought, Jiang Fan came up with a preliminary plan.

As soon as they returned to the yard, everyone smelled the strong scent of herbs.

Jiang Fan shrugged his nose. "Is that the smell of medicinal soup coming from the backyard? Or that kind of medicine?"

The corners of his mouth curled up slightly. It seemed that someone in the backyard was going to suffer tonight.

Without any intention of probing further, Jiang Fan went straight into the house.

Liu Haizhong looked in the direction of the smell and saw that it was his wife making a medicinal soup. His face turned pale instantly, and the good mood he had been showing off all day disappeared.

Instead, I felt a little bit nervous and my legs were a little weak.

"Old Liu, you're back. Come in quickly. I have something to tell you." Aunt Meng pulled Liu Haizhong and dragged him into the house.

Liu Haizhong wanted to resist, but he had been swinging the hammer all day and didn't want to be laughed at by others, so he was finally pulled in helplessly.

"My dear, the doctor said that this medicine is for conditioning the body. You have to take it for half a month first. You can't do anything strenuous during this half month. Let's be more restrained."

As soon as he entered the house, Liu Haizhong tried to persuade his wife earnestly. He didn't want to ruin his health because of this matter.

"Bah! You old pervert." Aunt Meng blushed and cursed.

This made Liu Haizhong surprised but also relieved. It seemed that it was not about that.

"You can't blame me for this. It's mainly because you're acting a little... Well, forget it. Don't you have something to tell me? What is it?"

When it came to business, Aunt Meng said seriously, "After you left today, Jiang Fan from the front yard came with the street office construction team. It seems they want to renovate the house that used to belong to Yi Zhonghai."

"Just fix it. It's no secret that Sha Zhu sold the house to the Jiang family. It has nothing to do with us." Liu Haizhong said indifferently.

"It's okay to renovate the house, but he's probably doing this for his wedding."

"Get married? Then get married. This has nothing to do with us." Liu Haizhong touched his head, feeling that his wife was a little puzzled.

"Why don't you understand? Jiang Fan is getting married sooner than our eldest brother, so when will Guang Qi's relationship be settled? We haven't even met his girlfriend yet. Do you think this is appropriate?"

After listening to his wife's words, Liu Haizhong suddenly realized that this was indeed a problem.

Chapter 441 Liu Guangqi's goal is achieved

Liu Guangqi returned to the courtyard exhausted and couldn't help blaming himself for finding a factory so far away from home.

This trip back and forth today almost exhausted him to death. When he thought about having to do the same thing tomorrow, or even in the future, Liu Guangqi felt a wave of despair.

"We still have to earn this fortune. What we earn is our fortune. Liu Haizhong's life savings are several thousand yuan. How can we give it up? It's just a little tiring, so we can just consider it as exercise."

Pushing the door open, "Mom and Dad, I'm back. Why does our house smell so strongly of medicine? Are you sick? Why didn't you tell me so I could take care of you."

As soon as he entered the house, Liu Guangqi showed his filial piety, and there was no trace of pretense on his worried look.

Then he added, "Where's the third brother? How did he take care of you? I'm usually busy with work and not at home, so it's understandable that I didn't notice. But how could he, an idle person, not notice? It's really outrageous."

Liu Guangqi and Liu Guangfu are now at loggerheads with each other. Whenever they get the chance, they will mercilessly belittle each other in front of Liu Haizhong.

They are a model of brotherly love and respect.

"The third brother is out, and I'm not sick, it's just an old illness. I took some medicine to treat it yesterday." Liu Haizhong said.

"Dad, I'm glad you're okay. You are our family's pillar of support. If you fell, what would happen to our family?"

Liu Guangqi said this but meant it. In his heart, he was thinking, "Old Deng, why don't you fall? If you don't fall, how can I inherit the family property, become the head of the family, marry a wife, and reach the pinnacle of life?"

Liu Haizhong had no idea what his son was thinking and was still immersed in his filial piety.

Aunt Meng next to them couldn't help but ask, "Guangqi, Jiang Fan in the front yard has already started preparing the wedding room, when will you bring your partner back to meet us?

If it's appropriate, we can also prepare your wedding."

Liu Haizhong also nodded and said, "Yes, you are one year older than Jiang Fan, so you have to get married before him. This week, please take some time to bring her back so we can meet her."

Now Liu Guangqi was in a dilemma. It was not that he could not bring the person back, but that his status with Li Yi was unequal in this relationship.

It was he who took the initiative to chase Li Yi.

He said with embarrassment, "Dad, it's not that I don't want to bring her back to you, but you also know that Li Yi's father is the director, a leader.

And her father is about to have his birthday, so I was thinking, should I go to their house first to check on him?"

Listening to Liu Guangqi's words, Liu Haizhong fell into deep thought. After all, he had beaten Liu Guangqi up because of this matter two days ago.

Thinking about it now, I feel a little regretful. If this incident really delays Liu Guangqi's career as an official, he will probably regret it even more in the future.

"You do have a point. So you want to buy something as a gift, right? As a father, I can't be without showing any appreciation. I'll give you some money tomorrow so you can buy a gift."

Liu Guangqi was overjoyed, "Thank you, Dad."

Liu Haizhong raised his hand, "Don't be so hasty to thank me, I also have conditions."

"Dad, what are your conditions?"
