Siheyuan: I am stupid, I don't want to be a bootlicker

After work, He Yuzhu first went to the street office to pick up his wife and took her home to eat, take the baby for a walk, and send his wife to night school.

There was nothing going on on the street, so He Yuzhu went home early.

As soon as I entered the room, I saw my father-in-law Lou Jingzhai sitting behind the coffee table with a worried look on his face.

Seeing He Yuzhu coming back, he smiled:

"Is the Pillar back?"

"Hey, Dad, what's the matter with you? Are things not going well on the farm?"

As He Yuzhu was talking, he took off his coat, washed his hands, and sat opposite his father-in-law. Lou's mother made tea for them both.

"Hey, it's the white pigs. Most of them died to save costs. Professors and college students are complaining to me.

Many scientific research projects are progressing very slowly, and some of the money invested in the early stages has been wasted.”

When Lou Jingzhai talked about these things, he could only sigh.

There is no way around it. Being registered with the Ministry of Agriculture has its pros and cons.

He Yuzhu thought about it carefully and said:

"How about this, tomorrow is Sunday, you prepare the gifts and we'll go to my uncle's house.

Give him an apology, because most of the white pigs died, so next month's

The meat may have to be halved.”

When Lou Jingzhai heard this, a light flashed in his eyes, but then dimmed again:

"I know your uncle is a powerful person, but he is in the military after all. Can his words have any effect?"

He Yuzhu laughed and said, "Don't worry, Dad. If his words don't work, you probably won't be able to open this farm."

PS: Don’t go, there’s one more chapter…

Early the next morning, He Yuzhu got up and made breakfast. After the family finished eating, they went to his uncle's house with his father-in-law.

It was already past ten o'clock when we arrived at Meng's house. After waiting for the security guard at the door to report, Meng Xinglang hurried down to meet the person:

"Uncle Lou, Zhuzi, let's go home quickly."

The three of them arrived at the Meng family. Everyone was there. The old man was playing chess with Meng's father in the living room. When he saw the two of them coming, he waved for them to come over and sit down.

Hua Yue took two teacups, poured tea for the two of them, and said with a smile:

"It's so hard to come here, don't leave this morning, just eat at home."

"Aunt, let's do it another day. I have other things to do today. If my dad hadn't insisted on coming over, I would be busy going to the street."

It would be fine if He Yuzhu ate at Meng's house by himself, but it would definitely not be appropriate to bring his father-in-law along.

"Jingzhai, we are all family. If you want to come over next time, just come directly. Don't be so distant."

Old Master Meng said this with a smile and glanced at Meng Xinglang, who quickly put away the chessboard on the table.

Meng Jun, Meng Xinglang's father, looked at Lou Jingzhai and asked with a smile:

"Jingzhai, we are all family, I won't be polite to you, what is the matter with you coming here today?"

When Lou Jingzhai heard this, a smile immediately appeared on his face. He said directly that the farm was in a downturn after the New Year and the amount of meat next month might have to be reduced by half.

When Meng Jun heard this, he immediately frowned and asked in a deep voice:

"What's going on? The farm has always been doing well, why is it suddenly in trouble?"

Lou Jingzhai smiled bitterly and immediately repeated the policies of the new leader Xie who took office after the retirement of the top leader of the Ministry of Agriculture.

The growth environment of white pigs is more delicate than that of black pigs. If the sanitation is not timely, they are prone to infection with plague.

These days, half of the white pigs have died from the plague, and the remaining half have mostly been infected with the plague, but have not died yet.

When Meng Jun heard what Lou Jingzhai said, he immediately frowned.

"Didn't you report this to your superiors?"

His grandfather had contributed to the introduction of these white pigs from the Netherlands, and naturally he hoped that they would benefit the people.

Nowadays, almost all of them are dying out, which is not a good sign.

Lou Jingzhai had no choice but to repeat what Leader Xie had said: "millet and rifles can drive away the foreign powers."

Mr. Meng and Meng Jun were both smart people and they understood the meaning of this in an instant.

In all likelihood, someone is jealous of this farm and wants to pick peaches.

Mr. Meng narrowed his eyes, suddenly turned to look at He Yuzhu, and asked with a smile:

"Zhu Zi, what do you think about the millet plus rifle thing?"

He Yuzhu smiled and said, "Old man, I am a rough man. I said something I shouldn't have said. Please forgive me."

Mr. Meng waved his hand and said with a smile: "We are all family, so it's okay to speak frankly."

“If you ask me, we used millet and rifles before because our country was poor and we had no choice but to fill the gap with human lives.

Now that we have the conditions, why do we still need to use Xiaomi and rifles?

As for my father's farm, I don't know much about the details, but I heard that there is a kind of vegetable that can grow three times a year under certain conditions.

Just based on this point, if those professors can research and popularize it, how many ordinary people can be fed by it?

What their leader said about millet and rifles was simply because it was not his father, mother, son or daughter who were starving.

If anyone in their family was hungry, he would definitely not say this.

Although my father-in-law is a businessman, he at least understands one thing: he can only make money when the people live a good life. "

He Yuzhu expressed his thoughts in a few words. If conditions allowed, he would like to say this in person to that leader Xie.

When Mr. Meng and Meng Jun heard what He Yuzhu said, they looked at each other and couldn't help but smile.

Times are changing and the country is developing. If we remain where we are and do not make progress, we will only be eliminated.

The bloody history tells us that if you lag behind, you will be beaten, and if you are poor, you will go hungry.

The economy, industry, agriculture, etc. are the new battles facing the country.

This is an invisible battle without gunpowder smoke.

"Well, that's a good point. The country needs young people like you who have vision and ambition to build it."

Old Master Meng was very pleased, and the look he gave He Yuzhui contained a hint of "my son has grown up".

“When it comes to scientific research, we must listen to the opinions of experts and professors, and Jingzhai has done a very good job in this regard.

We want to serve those who are knowledgeable and capable to the greatest extent possible, protect their lives to the greatest extent possible, and allow them to devote themselves to their work wholeheartedly."

As soon as Mr. Meng said this, He Yuzhu knew that today's trip was not in vain.

The four of them chatted for a while about the current situation in the country and the world. Seeing that it was almost time for dinner, He Yuzhu stood up and said goodbye to his father-in-law.

"Youan, drive them back."

The old man gave an order.

When they left the house, it was Meng Jun and his wife who saw them off. Meng Jun patted He Yuzhu on the shoulder:

"Zhu Zi, I heard about the Qu family's affairs. If you encounter such things in the future, don't bear them by yourself."

"Oh, I understand, uncle. I was planning to come over, but Uncle Li showed up unexpectedly."

He Yuzhu nodded in response.

When I came back, I naturally had to bring a lot of things in big and small bags.

Of course, most of them were for Xiao'e and the children, including food and daily necessities, as well as children's toys and the like.

On the way, although Lou Jingzhai was happy, he didn't want to show it too obviously in front of Liang Youan.

However, after returning home, she could no longer hide the smile on her face. She became more interested in eating and even had two drinks with her son-in-law.

After dinner, He Yuzhu rode his bicycle for a stroll on the street, distributed cigarettes to everyone, and when he saw that there was nothing to do on the street, he went home.

At the gate of the courtyard, He Yuzhu happened to run into Xu Damao who was coming out of the yard. He was holding his son for a stroll.

"Hey, Sha Zhuer, are you out on the street again?"

Xu Damao seemed to be in a good mood, with an expression that said "as long as I have a son, everything is content".

"Hey...Xu Damao, are you going to force me to beat you in front of your son?"

He Yuzhu got furious when he heard the name "Shazhuer".

If someone else called him that, he really wouldn't care, but Xu Damao couldn't accept that.

Just because you have a green head, you still have the nerve to call me stupid?

"Hey, man, I want to tell you something today, do you want to listen?"

Xu Damao didn't care about He Yuzhu's tone at all. He moved closer to He Yuzhu and said something mysteriously.

"what's up?"

He Yuzhu knew Xu Damao's character. Seeing his expression, he knew that what he was about to say would definitely not be good for him.

"Just that Zhang Wen, how did you offend him?"

When Xu Damao spoke, he deliberately looked around and lowered his voice.

He Yuzhu was a little surprised: "Zhang Wen? He and I work in the same cafeteria and workshop. How could I have offended him?"

Xu Damao sneered when he heard what He Yuzhu said:

"This thief Sun invited me to dinner. He ate a meal with an old man. I guess he was discussing how to deal with you. He also mentioned your father's affairs.

Anyway, I think they are definitely going to trick you, so you better be careful."

After Xu Damao finished speaking, he ignored He Yuzhu and went out into the street holding his little Lu Daer.

He Yuzhu didn't ask any more questions. Considering Xu Damao's personality, it was already very difficult for him to tell him so much.

However, Zhang Wen had just moved into the yard, and I had no grudge against him, so what was he going to do?

Could it be because of Qin Huairu?

He Yuzhu was thinking about these questions in his mind as he pushed his bicycle into the courtyard.

As soon as I entered the door, I heard the three aunts cursing: "Bitch, shameless, vixen" and so on.

Anyway, it's just those two or three sentences over and over again.

When I looked up, I saw three women fighting in front of the Third Uncle's house, and the Third Uncle was running around anxiously.

When he saw He Yuzhu coming, he immediately pulled him over as if he had found a life-saving straw:

"Hey, Zhuzi, you're finally back, hurry up and try to persuade him."

He Yuzhu was pulled a few steps closer to the battlefield by him. While setting up the ladder, he asked:

"What's going on?"

"Hey, your Third Aunt is crazy again. Gulili came to our house again today, and before she could finish a sentence, she was beaten by your Third Aunt.

Seeing her mother-in-law suffer a loss, Yu Li also joined in. What do you think of this? "

The third uncle was anxious. If the third aunt and Gulili started fighting, he could still hold his wife back.

But his daughter-in-law is also here at the moment, so it is naturally inappropriate for him as a father-in-law to get involved.

He Yuzhu took a closer look: Hey, Gulili was pinned to the ground and beaten by the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, and Yu Li was riding on Guli, beating her on the head and face.

The three aunts squatted beside her, grabbed Gulili's hair with one hand and pulled it hard, and slapped her in the face with the other hand.

Although both of them had injuries on their bodies and faces, they were nothing compared to Gulili's.

"Hey, Yu Li, Third Aunt, please stop hitting me. If you keep hitting me, someone will get killed."

He Yuzhu was not able to deal with the three female comrades and could only scare them.

When the two heard He Yuzhu say that someone was killed, they immediately stopped what they were doing and looked down at the person.

Sure enough, Gulili's face had completely lost its human appearance, with blood oozing out from the criss-crossing nail marks.
