"Yes, that definitely counts."
"Since I support you so much, you are not kind enough to deal with this matter today. Don't say that you can't see that Sha Zhu is looking for trouble with me."
"Hey! That's just a scoundrel. Xiao Chen, you are young and promising. Don't bother with the stupid Zhuzi."
"What the uncle said is true. I have never met him, but wasn't it you who said that later?"
"Xiao Chen, I was wrong. I forgot that you are going to get married soon. It's my fault. I apologize to you here."
"Don't worry! Uncle, I can't stand you doing this. Let's get this one thing over with. This has nothing to do with whether I'm married or not. Let's just talk about today's donation. We have to have an explanation, right?"
"Xiao Chen, what do you want to say?" Yi Zhonghai's face also became gloomy: "Xiao Chen, you are still young and have a bright future. You must not go astray."
"That can't be done. Don't worry, sir. I'm not a greedy person. I'm not trying to extort money. You underestimate me."
"Oh? Then Xiao Chen, what do you mean?"
"I'm afraid of trouble. The Jia family's problem is far from being solved by donating money once or twice. I don't want to donate money to the Jia family from time to time in the future. I plan to solve this problem once and for all."
"You said."
"Aunt Zhang should work, whether it's making matchboxes or cleaning. She should find something to do. If she stays at home and doesn't work, and expects people in the hospital to donate money to support her, I will be the first one to say no."
"This..." Yi Zhonghai was embarrassed: "Xiao Chen, you also know that old sister-in-law is not a hard worker."
"Nothing is impossible. She has to choose between working and being driven back to the countryside."
"Xiao Chen, is there nothing else to discuss?"
"Yes, you can write me a letter of guarantee, promising that it will be just this once and that you will not donate to the Jia family again. What does it have to do with me whether Aunt Zhang works or not?"
Yi Zhonghai shook his head and said this cannot be written.
"Master, you are not sincere. We can't all support the Jia family together, right? Or do you want me to make all the accounts of the Jia family public?"
"Xiao Chen, don't be so impulsive. Leave some room for others so that we can meet again in the future."
"It's not a question of whether I want to or not, but your actions have touched my interests. You can't let me accept the loss and help the Jia family, uncle. I'm not that great."
Yi Zhonghai fell into deep thought. After a long while, he said, "Xiao Chen, how about this? As for the Jia family's affairs, you should cooperate with me and just follow the crowd. I will compensate you for the amount you donated later."
"Uncle, aren't you afraid that I will cheat you?"
"That can't be done. There is no conflict of interest between us. It won't benefit you to cheat me. I can see clearly that you won't do anything that doesn't benefit you."
"That's right, uncle. Think about it again. If there is no benefit, why should I cooperate with you?"
Yi Zhonghai gritted his teeth and said, "I'll give you double compensation!"
For the sake of his retirement plan, Yi Zhonghai was willing to give it all. Chen Xi's donation wouldn't be much anyway, so this amount of money was nothing to him.
"Deal." Chen Xi nodded with satisfaction, and then asked, "What if Sha Zhu gives me trouble again?"
"No, I'm looking at him."
"About tomorrow's broadcast?"
"I'll talk to him."
"Uncle, you really are the pillar of the hospital. I admire you!"
Chapter 298: The Stupid Pillar is Investigated
After Yi Zhonghai left, Chen Xi closed the door, took out his lunch box and started eating. Today's talk went well. As long as it didn't harm his interests, he would rather go along with Yi Zhonghai.
Fighting birds?
Why do I want to fight birds?
Chen Xi would not stand up for Sha Zhu. Sha Zhu's ending was entirely his own fault. Did he really think he couldn't see through those tricks?
No, he was simply obsessed with sex. In the later stage, it became a sunk cost. If he let it go, he would be reluctant to do so. He could only grit his teeth and continue to go on, until it finally became an obsession.
This kind of person doesn't deserve sympathy, he brought this upon himself.
The fate of those beasts in the yard was all caused by cause and effect. He didn't want to get involved at all. It is better for people to have some sense of boundaries between each other.
As I said, as long as you don't bother him, he will just be a good supporting actor. If you provoke him, he won't be polite.
For example, regarding Sha Zhu, regarding what happened tonight, Chen Xi simply did not confront the other party face to face, but this matter was not so easy to let go.
Chen Xi: [Starting tomorrow, check Shazhu's lunch box every night and don't let him take any food away.]
Shadow Guard: [Okay, Boss, don't worry.]
Chen Xi: [Wait for me to put some cigarettes into the shadow space, and you can take them and distribute them to the security department.]
Shadow Guard: [Boss, get me some good ingredients, I'll send them to our section chief later.]
Chen Xi: [Sensible.]
There are gift packs of food ingredients. You can’t eat them openly, but it’s okay if you give them as gifts secretly.
With so many people living in a large compound, many things are really inconvenient. Even though Chen Xi has the Water Spirit Pearl, he still has to go to the central courtyard to fetch water, just for show to outsiders.
In this era, Chen Xi could only smoke flue-cured tobacco, one cigarette a day. He had cigarettes of all grades. In front of outsiders, he smoked Peony, and at home he smoked Panda.
The cigarettes given to the shadow guards are also Peony and Daqianmen. There is no other way. We can't give Peony cigarettes to the people below. Then what kind of cigarettes should we give to the leaders?
Occasionally, he would have some cigarettes specially supplied by the army. It was reasonable for him to get these cigarettes considering his background as a shadow guard. As for the food, it didn't matter, except that various kinds of meat were more precious.
As for things like milk powder, malted milk, and chocolate, you can take them out when you prepare the lunch boxes. You don't need too much, just give them to the right people at the critical moment.
Chen Xi didn't know what Yi Zhonghai said to Sha Zhu. Anyway, there was no report about the incident in the factory the next day, and Sha Zhu didn't come to see him.
When other people in the courtyard asked about it, Chen Xi pushed the blame onto Yi Zhonghai: "The uncle wouldn't allow it. He felt that doing good deeds and publicizing it was too deliberate and unworthy of his noble sentiments."
In the afternoon, Chen Xi took a special leave and went to get a marriage certificate with Kawakami Tomie. From that moment on, they were a legal couple.
Tomie Kawakami's home was also left by her parents in the setting. Unlike the one allocated by the factory, it is private property and cannot be traded.
The deaf old lady, Sha Zhu, Yi Zhonghai, Xu Damao, these people are also private property, they are all old local residents, they can't be liberated and then occupy other people's houses.
Many houses in the city were private properties in 1949. Landlords who had too much private property were dealt with when the country was liberated. If they were sensible, they would be fine if they donated their property early, and they could even keep some private property for their own use.
Tomie Kawakami's home is a house in another courtyard house with two rooms. The title deed clearly states that it is someone else's private property. Even if she no longer lives there after getting married, no one can confiscate her house.
It cannot be traded or sold, but it can be rented out. The people in her yard are all normal. There aren't so many monsters or ghosts, and they won't try to take advantage of you. They just rent the house properly and sign an agreement.
It is necessary to sign an agreement to avoid future disputes. It is not acceptable if the house becomes someone else's property while you are living there.
Everything that Tomie Kawakami could think of was included in the agreement, avoiding as many complicated and troublesome matters as possible.
In this era, there aren’t many personal belongings. After my daughter’s household items were packed up, the rest were left in the room. It’s not possible for someone to do something to the table she used, right?
If such a person really existed, Tomie Kawakami would admire him very much and would not be afraid of hurting Tintin.
Chen Xi helped to move, and the two of them returned to his house carrying large and small bags. After getting their marriage certificate, of course they had to live together.
After distributing wedding candies door to door, the wedding was considered complete and there was no need to hold a banquet. Yan Bugui did advise against it, but Chen Xi would cry poor.
"Uncle." Chen Xi cried and cried poor, saying how difficult his life was. He was married, and there was nothing good at home. He almost cheated some money from Yan Bugui.
Fortunately, Yan Bugui still had his instincts, and he came to his senses the moment he took out the money. He was so scared that he ran away. This kid has a bad nature. I can't talk to him about money in the future.
The young people in the hospital were extremely jealous. Even though Comrade Tomie was no longer able to bear children, they were still jealous that such a stunning beauty was with Chen Xi.
While Chen Xi and Kawakami Tomie were cleaning up their new home, Sha Zhu was in a more miserable situation. In order to deliver dinner to Sister Qin in the evening, he specially prepared a lot of delicious food, all of which were meat. However, he was stopped by the security department.
Having done something wrong, Sha Zhu was not panicked at all: "What are you doing? What are you doing? Get out of here! The factory manager said that I can take the leftovers home. This is the rule of our chefs!"
"Bullshit rules!" The shadow guard said disdainfully, "What? It's a new society now, and you still want to use the old rules to do things. Do you want to restore the old order?"
After hearing this, Sha Zhu broke out in a cold sweat: "Don't talk nonsense, I didn't!"
"It's not up to you to decide whether there is any. We all heard what you just said. Now, Comrade He Yuzhu, open your lunch box."
"I do not!"
"I now suspect you of stealing state property. Open the lunch box!" The shadow guard roared and pointed his gun directly at Sha Zhu.
Shazhu was almost scared to death. I was just bringing some leftovers, why did you pull out a gun?
No matter how reluctant he was, he couldn't go against the will of the enemy at this time. Sha Zhu had to open the lunch box. Wow, it was full of meat.
"Is this the leftovers you mentioned?" The shadow guard sneered and called over the people who were watching the fun: "Come, everyone, take a look. Is this leftovers?"
All the onlookers came over to take a look at the lunch box, which was full of meat, and they were immediately outraged.
"Comrade He Yuzhu is suspected of stealing state property, take him away!"
"I don't have it!" Sha Zhu struggled desperately, and seeing Yi Zhonghai in the crowd, he hurriedly shouted: "Uncle, save me, I don't have it!"
Yi Zhonghai watched this scene with a headache, but he couldn't ignore Sha Zhu. But when he saw the lunch box full of meat, he was speechless. How the hell do you want me to save you? !
Whose leftovers are a lunch box of meat?
Sha Zhu was taken away by the security department. Yi Zhonghai hurried back to the courtyard. He had no idea what to do about the matter and could only ask for help from the deaf old lady.
The deaf old lady must have some background and connections. After learning that Sha Zhu was arrested, she immediately asked Yi Zhonghai to carry her to the steel mill and catch the person before the leader got off work.
On the way to the steel mill, the deaf old lady asked: "Zhonghai, why is the matter of Sha Zhuzi suddenly being investigated?"
Yi Zhonghai shook his head and said, "I don't know either, but I guess it has something to do with Chen Xi."
"The boy from the Chen family?"
"The person who arrested Sha Zhu today is Chen Xi's cousin."
"Did the silly pillar offend the kid from the Chen family?"
"Alas... old lady, it's all because of what happened yesterday." Yi Zhonghai explained helplessly, and the deaf old lady fell silent after listening.
The one who teases first is the mean one. Shazhu targets others for no reason, no wonder they want to retaliate against him.
Both of them thought that it was Chen Xi who did it, but in the security department, Shadow Guard directly took out the letter of complaint, proving that Chen Xi had nothing to do with it.
Looking at the handwriting on the report letter, Yi Zhonghai's hands trembled with anger, Xu Damao!
Kawakami Tomie is in the Propaganda Department. Even if she doesn't share an office with Xu Damao, it is not difficult for her to get what the other party has written before. Chen Xi's calligraphy is at the highest level after all, so it is very easy for him to imitate Xu Damao's handwriting.
The blame for reporting Sha Zhu was put on Xu Damao. Anyway, this kid always did bad things behind the scenes, so one more thing would not be too much.
Well, the real reason was that Xu Damao always stared at Kawakami Tomie with ill intentions, which made Chen Xi and the others very unhappy.
The deaf old lady went to see Director Yang, and because it was Sha Zhu's first offense, she pardoned him this time, but she required the entire factory to criticize him and deduct one month's salary.
Everyone knew that this was definitely not the first time that Sha Zhu had done something like this, but it was the first time he was caught. Now the public in the factory was outraged, and Director Yang would definitely not admit what he had said.
Not only did he not admit it, he also specifically emphasized the importance of the matter, saying that no one could steal anything from the factory as it was state property.
This sentence has blocked Shazhu's way of bringing a lunch box. If he dares to bring it secretly again, he will be arrested.
When Sha Zhu found out that he was reported by Xu Damao, his eyes turned red: "That despicable guy! When this is over, I will not let him go!"
Xu Damao, who was completely unaware of the situation, was drinking at home. He was really happy today as he saw Sha Zhu being arrested and everything was revealed.
"Ezi, Ezi!" Xu Damao called out, "Come on, I'm happy today, drink with me."
Lou Xiao'e had no objection. She just drank. As she drank, she became more and more interested.
After drinking for more than an hour, Xu Damao became interested, worked for three minutes, and fell asleep contentedly.
Lou Xiao'e: (╬ ̄Pan ̄)
Bastard Xu Damao!
You're worse than a cucumber. You're making me feel so uncomfortable. How can I sleep?!
Chen Xi was also not satisfied. The quality of the bed was too poor, which affected his performance. It was always creaking. He even missed the bed he used when he first traveled through time.
"Go buy some wood and make it yourself."
"What about the carpentry?"
"The bookstore sells relevant books, so just say you can study on your own."
"Can it be done?"
"I just make the most ordinary furniture, not like I'm playing with Luban locks, what's wrong with that?"
"Then I'll get you some herbs and some spiritual spring water. If you ask someone to do something for you, do you have to give them something?"
"You're smart. I'll prepare some medicinal wine later."
When giving a gift to a leader, you have to give something difficult to give. The medicinal wine prepared by Chen Xi is definitely unique in this world, not to mention its efficacy. For this medicinal wine, he is also the leader's favorite.
