Siheyuan: God rewards hard work and makes life better

"That's okay!"

Liang Ladi was overjoyed. What was this called? Liu An or something? Oh! Anyway, it’s enough to have something to eat.

"Master He, thank you so much."

The soft whispers rippled in Shazhu's heart like a clear spring.

"Oh my god, why didn't I realize that this woman is pretty before?" Sha Zhu secretly hated that they met her too late, otherwise it would have been nice to marry her home.

Then he thought of her tough appearance and shuddered all over.

Pei Zhenrong's heart skipped a beat. Oh no! Could it be that his nephew had some relationship with this fierce woman?

If the timing wasn't wrong, he would have to get to the bottom of it.

After Sha Zhu left, Pei Guang went back and called his sister.

When he came out again, he found that his uncle was already chatting with Yan Fugui.

Looking at the backs of the people leaving, Yan Fugui felt sour.

Pei Zhenrong's car was obviously second-hand, and it was probably assembled by Pei Guang.

When Pei Guang was asked to help assemble the car, he refused every request and ended up helping his uncle assemble it secretly.

After all, they are uncle and nephew, and they are just outsiders.

.........

On the way, Pei Guang secretly praised his uncle's skillful movements.

"Uncle, your riding skills are pretty good. How many days did it take you to learn it?"

Pei Zhenrong smiled slightly, "Not bad, uncle learned it in just half a day."

Pei Guang and his sister both laughed awkwardly. It took them both three days to learn how to do this and they were too embarrassed to tell anyone about it.

"By the way, don't get too close to Liang Ladi."

"Let me tell you, this widow has a bad reputation. I heard that she often has affairs in the factory." Pei Zhenrong said righteously, fearing that his nephew would go astray.

Pei Guang's mouth twitched slightly, and he naturally understood his uncle's concerns, and quickly assured him: "Uncle, she and I are just ordinary neighbors, I know my limits in this matter."

"That's good. I was just worried that you would be blinded by the widow."

Pei Liyun disagreed: "Uncle, I think Sister Liang is a very nice person!"

"You! You are still too young. You will understand when you grow up."

Although Pei Zhenrong did not see it with his own eyes, there is no smoke without fire, so it is better not to mess with such people.

Pei Liyun's little head was in a mess, and she simply kept silent.

As soon as the three of them walked into the yard, they immediately saw a group of children playing games and having a lot of fun.

It is summer vacation now, so I don’t need to attend any tutoring classes. I can enjoy the wonderful childhood.

"Brother Guang, I miss you so much. My dad didn't let me go to see you." The sharp-eyed Pei Qiqi noticed the person coming and ran over immediately.

Pei Zhenrong glared at his daughter unhappily. He was still here. How could she complain to his face like that?

Pei Guang picked her up. In just a short while, the little girl seemed to have grown a lot.

"Then Qiqi, grow up quickly, and then you can come to find me by yourself."

"Yeah! I want to eat more and grow up quickly."

"Brother Guang, Sister Liyun, you are here!" Pei Xiangdong and his brother also came over to say hello.

Pei Guang took out some candies and handed them over. "These are chocolate candies. They are delicious."

The three siblings took it with great joy, even though they had never eaten it before, they thought Brother Guang would definitely not lie to them.

"Thank you, Brother Guang!"

"Wow! It's sweet and delicious!" Pei Qiqi opened her big round eyes excitedly.

The other friends stopped playing and watched from afar with longing in their eyes.

Pei Guang found it very funny. He waved for them to come over and gave each of them a White Rabbit milk candy.

"Thank you brother!"

Looking at the innocent smiling faces of the children, I sigh that time is gone forever.

Chapter 45 Eating and Borrowing Money

After entering the house, the food was almost ready, and several people sat down at the table one by one.

Braised carp, cold cucumber, boiled winter melon, steamed eggs, vegetarian dumplings and steamed buns.

Pei Liyun was so happy that she couldn't stop smiling. "It would be great if Brother Guang and Sister Liyun could come here more often. There would be delicious food every time."

Pei Zhenrong knocked on her head and said, "Even if there is something to eat, it can't stop your mouth."

Qin Zhaodi wiped her hands and said softly, "Xiao Guang, my aunt's cooking skills can't compare with yours, so just make do with what you have."

"How could that be? It's already very rich."

At the dinner table, Pei Zhenrong asked about the brother and sister's recent situation.

When he learned that Pei Guang had become a level 6 chef, his jaw dropped. His nephew's cooking skills were indeed very good, but this promotion was too fast.

Pei Guang was no longer surprised. What could he do if his leader insisted on promoting him?

Pei Liyun's academic performance is also good. It seems that she will have no problem getting into high school, but her hope of getting into a technical secondary school is slim.

You have to know that the enrollment rate of senior technical secondary schools at that time was much lower than that of first-class universities in later generations, so you can imagine how difficult it was to pass the exam. Moreover, after graduation, they were assigned jobs, often with cadre staff.

Pei Zhenrong was very happy to hear this, "Great! If your parents knew about this, they would definitely be very happy."

"Come on, Xiao Guang, let's drink!"

After some casual chatting, Pei Guang also learned about the situation of his uncle's family.

In this assessment, my uncle was also promoted to a fourth-level mechanic, and his salary was two dollars higher than his.

Pei Xiangdong's grades are not very good, so he may drop out of primary school in the second half of the year.

Qin Zhaodi even joked and asked his son to learn cooking from him.

Pei Zhenrong's eyes lit up. His son was so young and couldn't find a job anyway, so he might as well learn a skill to support himself.

Anyway, no matter who starves to death, the cook will not die. After a few years, he will lose more money than him. Isn’t his nephew a lesson for us?

"Xiao Guang, seriously, if Xiangdong really can't get into junior high school, how about letting him learn cooking from you?"

Pei Guang smiled and said, "I have no problem with that, but I'm afraid Xiangdong himself won't want to."

Pei Xiangdong quickly said, "I am willing to do that. I also want to cook as deliciously as Brother Guang."

Pei Qiqi raised her hands and feet in agreement, "Okay, this way I can eat delicious food every day."

When these words were spoken, the whole family laughed.

"Then we'll see. If it doesn't work out, I'll talk to the director and let Xiangdong help in the kitchen, but he might not get paid."

Pei Zhenrong waved his hand and didn't take it seriously.

It's good enough to have a place to learn a skill, why do you have so many requirements?

Qin Zhaodi was overjoyed. She had just said it casually, but she didn't expect such a big surprise.

She knew her nephew's cooking skills very well. If he could really learn some skills, they, as parents, wouldn't have to worry about him in the future.

At this time, she began to feel fortunate that her husband had taken good care of this nephew before, otherwise where could she find such a good thing.

She was so happy that she picked up food for her nephew from time to time, and her enthusiastic attitude almost made Pei Guang unable to resist.

When Pei Qiqi saw this, she accused her mother of being partial, which made everyone laugh again.

.........

On the other side, at the He family, He Yushui looked at the three brothers lying on the bed with a confused look on his face.

What's going on? I didn't go to the wrong house!

I walked into the kitchen and found my brother busy cooking.

"Brother, what's going on outside?"

Sha Zhu said softly, "The child's mother is sick and asked me to make something to eat."

He Yushui stroked his forehead and asked in confusion: "No, even if it's like this, I shouldn't have come to you. When did you two become so close?"

"Hey! This is just in time."

"By the way, take out a few bowls of porridge from the pot to cool it down, otherwise it will be too hot to eat."

He Yushui didn't care too much about it, it was just some food.

At the dinner table, Da Mao and Er Mao's eyes lit up as they looked at the meat on the plate. San Mao was a little young, so he still had to be fed by He Yushui.

After the meal, the two brothers expressed their gratitude while holding their stomachs.

"Thank you, Uncle He!"

Sha Zhu felt relieved after hearing this, "You two are quite sensible. Uncle He will prepare delicious food for you next time."

"Really? Uncle He, you're so nice!" The two brothers were so happy that they couldn't stop smiling.

He Yushui secretly sighed that although Liang Ladi was tough, she was quite good at teaching children.

When the three brothers returned home, they were even happier to see that their mother was well again.

When Liang Ladi heard that Sha Zhu was going to prepare food for the children next time, her face looked very strange. Could it be that he was also coveting her beauty?

.......

Liu Lan's home.

At this moment, she was kneeling in front of the mourning hall, her eyes empty and lifeless.

He was clearly a fine person before leaving home in the morning, but now he is gone forever. No one can accept this.

Thinking back to what I saw and heard in the afternoon, the air was clearly filled with a hot atmosphere, but my heart was extremely cold.

My heart is broken into pieces, and when it is put together, it is still full of scars.

It turned out that her husband had recently become addicted to gambling, and he played quite heavily, and owed a lot of debts outside.

Today the creditor came to our house to ask for money, and we had to spend all the money in the house to barely pay off the debt. My father-in-law was so angry that he fell ill and died.

She had given up hope on this man. It was bad enough that he just did nothing all day, but now her father-in-law who had a pension was so angry that he died, and the family was penniless. How could the three of them survive?

If it weren't for the help of our neighbors, we wouldn't even be able to handle my father-in-law's funeral. We would be worse than animals.

She has already made up her mind to divorce, otherwise, with her man in this state, who knows what will happen in the future.

Thinking of the two hungry children at home, she forced herself to cheer up. At least she still had a job in the steel mill, which was the only thing that made her feel happy.

.........

Three days later, after her father-in-law's funeral was settled, Liu Lan returned to the steel mill.

Her eldest son is three years old this year. He has been taken care of by his father-in-law. Now that there is no one at home, she plans to send him to the nursery at the steel mill.

As for her daughter, she was only a few months old and was always tied to her back and taken to work.

When she arrived at the kitchen, everyone saw that she was in good spirits and greeted her with a smile.

In the past two days, colleagues have gone to pay their respects one after another. Liu Lan did not shy away from telling them directly what had happened at home.

Everyone sighed after hearing what she said and at the same time felt sorry for her.

That's not how you do human things!

After lunch, Liu Lan found Pei Guang with a blushing face, hoping to borrow ten yuan from him.

There’s no way, my family doesn’t even have money to buy groceries.

"Master Pei, don't worry. I will pay you back as soon as I get my salary."

Pei Guang was not afraid that she would not pay him back, after all, he was still working for him. He felt in his pocket and took out ten yuan, "I'm not in a hurry to use the money, you should take care of the family first."
