Siheyuan: Security Chief, suppressing the whole courtyard

"Go! What are you doing?"

When Sha Zhu heard this, he laughed: "What are you talking about? What do you mean by killing someone? Li Meng killed a pig."

"Kill a pig?"

"Yes." Sha Zhu said, "Li Meng went hunting in the mountains today. You would never guess that he took an axe and fought a 300-pound wild boar. He killed it in no time and then carried it to our factory to sell. This guy is amazing!"

The residents were dumbfounded when they heard this.

Singlehandedly challenge the wild boar?

About 300 pounds?

Carry it back to the steel mill?

Yan Bugui's mouth twitched: "Silly Zhu, is this true? Don't tease me, can a human beat a wild boar?"

"Nonsense, Wu Song can even fight a tiger."

"How can they be the same? Wu Song is a character in a literary work, this reality..."

"In real life, there was also a king who lifted the tripod. Haven't you heard of Xiang Yu? Speaking of more recent times, there was also a powerful king in the Qing Dynasty. You are a cultured man, Uncle."

Sha Zhu smiled and said, "Well, I won't chat with you anymore. I have an appointment with Li Meng. We need to have a drink together today."

As Sha Zhu said this, he walked into the central courtyard.

Leaving behind a group of residents looking at each other in bewilderment.

"Oh my god, more than 300 kilograms..." Yan Bugui calculated in his mind and said in surprise: "Then it must be sold for at least 200 yuan, not counting the meat coupons!"

"200 yuan..." The third aunt also swallowed her saliva: "They say that marrying into the family is a good thing, but this person has just earned more than 200 yuan for the family. This is really..."

"Go!" Yan Bugui glared at her and said, "You old woman, you are just talking nonsense. What do you mean you just broke in?"

Yan Jiecheng, the son of Yan Bugui, laughed dryly, shook his head and smacked his lips, saying, "Zhang Chunmei's family won't have to worry about their lives anymore. Not to mention getting a harvest every day, even if they can only kill one wild boar like this a year, plus Zhang Chunmei's salary, her family can spend it as much as they want."

"Yes." The second aunt said, "This is equivalent to a working couple. Li Meng occasionally carries a big bag and occasionally goes hunting to supplement the family income. The young couple has no elderly people and both have city hukou... I dare not even think about this kind of life!"

"Damn, all the good things happen to his family. It's fucking unbelievable." Yan Jiecheng said jealously.

Yan Bugui kicked him and shouted, "What are you talking about!"

I thought to myself, it’s okay to say this kind of thing at home, but how can I say it in front of outsiders?

The residents were talking to each other, shocked at Li Meng's ability, but more of them were envious, or to be more precise, jealous, as they couldn't bear to see others living better than themselves.

......

Soon, Zhang Chunmei also went home from get off work.

"Wife, you're back." Li Meng smiled and pointed at the pork on the chopping board. "I bought a pound of pork and some vegetables. We'll go to Sha Zhu's house to eat later. We've made an appointment. Today I'll provide the meat, and he'll provide the cooking skills and the wine. Let's have a good meal to celebrate."

Zhang Chunmei also laughed: "We should celebrate. You are capable as the boss. You have earned more than 200 yuan in one day. I have really found a treasure."

As she said this, she took the initiative to hug Li Meng, her eyes full of happiness and sweetness.

Zhang Chunmei felt that she had hit upon great luck after picking up a husband who was handsome, capable, and could make money, and who was about to cure the birthmark that had troubled her for years.

"You are my treasure too. Come, let me cherish my big baby."

Li Meng hugged his wife, and the couple stayed together for a long time. Zhang Chunmei sniffed and said, "Hey, boss, what smells so good?"

"It's tea."

Li Meng brought the big teacup over and said with a smile, "Try a sip?"

This was exactly the reward he received, the Dahongpao from the mother tree of Wuyi Mountain!

The real thing is more valuable than gold, and it cannot be bought with money.

Zhang Chunmei took a sip and said, "Wow, this tea is really delicious. Where did you buy it, boss?"

She didn't know how to taste tea, she just thought it tasted good and didn't take it too seriously, so she just asked casually.

Li Meng also said casually: "I met a man from the countryside who came to the city to speculate and profiteer, so I bought a few taels of silver. It didn't cost much."

When it comes to money, Zhang Chunmei took out the more than two hundred yuan that Li Meng gave her from her pocket.

"Boss, I've told you that you are the one who makes the decisions on all matters in our family, and you will be in charge of the money from now on."

"So good?"

"Hey, isn't this as it should be? Aren't the men in charge of the family? Shouldn't the women be in charge?"

"Haha, you're so good. Wait till tonight, and I'll have to reward you well."

Li Meng didn't act pretentiously. He put the money into his pocket, but actually put it into his personal space.

"Let's go, wife. Sha Zhu is probably home now. He might be waiting for us. Let's go and try his cooking."

"to make."

As they talked, the couple carried the vegetables and meat and walked towards the central courtyard, where they bumped into Sha Zhu.

"Hey, Mengzi, I was just looking for you."

"Haha, the ingredients are all bought, the rest is up to you."

Sha Zhu patted his chest and said, "No problem, I'll let you have a taste of my cooking skills!"

Chapter 16: The whole hospital meeting, the picky fool

"Brother, what delicious food are you going to make today? Hey, Sister Chunmei, Brother Mengzi, you are here too."

He Yushui walked into the house with a smile.

Sha Zhu smiled and said, "Your brother Mengzi bought the meat. I will make braised pork for you today. You are in for a treat, haha."

He Yushui is 19 years old this year, has graduated from high school, and started working. [Note: There is no doubt about He Yushui's age. The TV series clearly states that she is one year older than Yu Haitang. In 6.6, Liu Haizhong wanted his son to marry Haitang. He asked about her age and Yu Haitang said she was 24. That is to say, Yu Haitang was born in 1942. If He Yushui is one year older, she was born in early 1941. At this time, 1960-1941=19 years old]

"Oh, Brother Mengzi is so generous?" He Yushui said with a smile: "Did you get rich?"

"Hey, you're right." Sha Zhu said, "Your brother Mengzi really got rich today. He made more than 200 yuan."

"what?"

He Yushui was stunned. Earn more than 200 yuan a day?

Seeing that his sister was stunned, Sha Zhu laughed and told her the story of Li Meng hunting the wild boar again.

He Yushui was dumbfounded when he heard this, and looked Li Meng up and down: "This is really a sign of great strength despite being big. Brother Mengzi, you are really strong. My brother is also quite good at fighting, but I feel like you are even stronger than my brother. I wonder who will win if the two of you fight."

Li Meng laughed and said, "Who will win? I think if we really fight, both of us will lose."

"Everyone has to lose?" He Yushui asked in confusion: "In a fight, there must be winners and losers, so why do they all have to lose?"

Li Meng said: "This fight has damaged the relationship and we have no friends anymore. How can there be any winners? Aren't we all losers?"

He Yushui was stunned for a moment, then he chuckled: "I didn't expect you to speak so philosophically, Brother Mengzi. By the way, Brother Mengzi, what is your academic background?"

"Well, I don't have any academic qualifications. I just knew a few characters during the national literacy campaign." Li Meng said modestly.

The original owner had little education in this life, and Li Meng was just a poor man in his previous life.

The loopholes in the nine-year compulsory education.

However, the previous life was an era of information explosion, and even if I just poured out the ink in my stomach, it was definitely not something that ordinary people in this slum could compare to.

"Yushui, are you tired today?" Zhang Chunmei said.

"Building the motherland is not too tiring!"

"Hey, you little girl." Zhang Chunmei said with a smile, "You are so talkative."

He Yushui didn't talk much with Li Meng. After a few words, he pulled Zhang Chunmei aside to chat. Since they were both women, they had a lot of common topics.

Sha Zhu also handed a cigarette to Li Meng: "Do you want to smoke, buddy?"

"Wow, Peony?" Li Meng said, "This bag is 5 cents, almost half a day's salary for you, right?"

"Oh, that's nothing." Sha Zhu said with a smile, "When we men go out, what we care about is our face. Anyway, I don't have a wife, so I spend a little. Besides, I can also take on some banquets every month, which makes about 50 yuan a month."

"Well, being a cook is a popular profession."

Li Meng could see that Sha Zhu was too concerned about his reputation and spent money lavishly. Which good person would spend fifty cents a day on cigarettes?

In about an hour and a half, the meal was ready.

Four people sat at the table.

"Mengzi, this braised pork actually needs at least two and a half pieces to taste good, but when we make it at home, there are no such requirements. You can try it and see how it tastes."

Li Meng picked up a piece and chewed it twice: "Well, not bad, Zhuzi, your cooking skills are impeccable."

"Haha, it's delicious, come on, don't just focus on eating, let's have a drink first!"

The two women chatted while eating, and so did Sha Zhu and Li Meng. As they chatted, they turned to the topic of marriage.

"Zhu Zi, you said you were born in 35, so you are not young anymore. Why don't you think about finding a partner and getting married?"

"Oh, forget it. I haven't met anyone like him."

Sha Zhu smacked his lips and said, "Yu Shui wanted to introduce her classmate to me not long ago. When I took a look, I found that the girl was not bad looking. She was less than 20 years old and young and tender. But her butt was too small. I could tell she couldn't give birth to a son. Her breasts were too small. Wouldn't the child starve in the future? Her appearance wasn't very good either."

He Yushui rolled her eyes at his vulgar words and said, "Hey, hey, hey, what are you talking about? There are lesbians at this table!"

"Hehe, I'm open-mouthed. I'm open-mouthed." Sha Zhu scratched his head: "Chunmei, please don't be offended."

"Hey brother, please stop scratching your head. It's all over your scalp, like snowflakes falling. Are you going to let me eat?"

Sha Zhu was a little embarrassed and coughed twice. "The uncle also introduced a few to me, but I doubt whether the old man is sincere. The grandma either introduced me fat or ugly ones. There was another time when he introduced me a girl with buck teeth, saying that she knew how to live... They are all ugly. What's the point of knowing how to live? Don't you think they are brave?"

Sha Zhu had to speak directly before he could finish his words. He didn't care about anything else and directly called Yi Zhonghai "old boy".

Li Meng was so happy when he heard this: "Zhu Zi, have you never met anyone good looking?"

"There are some pretty ones too." Sha Zhu sighed, "But the pretty one has a rural household registration. It's useless to be pretty. She can't compare with the city girls. She's so uncultured and uneducated."

He Yushui snorted, "You look down on this one, you look down on that one, silly brother, if you keep being so picky, I'm afraid you won't even be able to find a wife when you're thirty!"

"What do you know, little brat?" Sha Zhu rolled his eyes and said, "Brother, it's like I'd rather eat a peach than a basket of rotten oranges. My conditions are perfect, so I have to pick someone who is good in every way and who satisfies me, right?"

"Yes, yes, everything you said is right."

He Yushui was too lazy to argue with him anymore.

Li Meng finally understood why Sha Zhu had remained single until he was in his thirties, and why he was finally framed.

There are good times, and now is a good time. Yi Zhonghai is wholeheartedly devoted to Jia Dongxu and will not plan to support him in his old age. Qin Huairu's husband is still alive, so naturally she can't have any thoughts about Sha Zhu.

If he had taken advantage of this period to get married quickly, no one would have interfered with his marriage, and there would have been no messy things later.

It's a pity that Shazhu is too picky. He doesn't like rural girls or ugly girls. As for the good-looking girls from the city, he thinks they have small butts and empty granaries...

Li Meng didn't know what to say now. After all, it was a taboo to talk about deep things with someone you just met.

How many days has he been in this compound?

The four of us enjoyed the meal very much.

Braised pork, scrambled eggs, extra crispy peanuts, and pickles.

The two of them drank half a catty of white wine each, and after they were full, they were smoking and chatting.

Suddenly, a resident outside said, "It's time for a general meeting of the whole hospital. Everyone come out to attend the meeting."

"Another meeting?" He Yushui said speechlessly, "There are meetings every day for trivial matters. Come on, Sister Chunmei, let's go out and take a look."

Chapter 17: Arousing public outrage? The entire hospital forced to donate!

There was a table in the yard, with three large teacups on it.

The three old men sat at the table calmly.

Some residents were putting their hands in their pockets, some were standing, and some were sitting on small stools.

Every household will send at least one person to attend this whole-house meeting.

"What is the meeting about today? Are there any new instructions from above?"
