Siheyuan: God rewards hard work and makes life better

Yi Zhonghai nodded with satisfaction. In previous years, his disciple would come to invite them so that the couple would not be too lonely.

"Take the pound of meat the factory gave me and make some delicious food during the celebration."

"Got it!"

Pei Guang thought that if nothing happened to Jia Dongxu, the courtyard would be much more harmonious.

.........

Chapter 66 New Year

When I got home, my sister was busy in the kitchen.

"Brother, I just boiled some water. Do you want to soak your feet? It's so comfortable."

OK! This sister is not loved in vain!

Pei Guang nodded in agreement. Although that little bit of coldness was nothing given his current physical condition, he still felt comfortable soaking his feet.

The warmth spreads from the soles of the feet to the whole body, dilating the blood vessels and making people feel intoxicated.

Not long after, Yan Fugui came running over to bring the couplets. Pei Guang gave him a handful of peanuts, probably about ten or twenty.

Seeing his overjoyed look, Pei Guang couldn't help but sigh that it was all for living!

Yan Fugui originally wanted to invite Pei Guang to have New Year's Eve dinner together, and it would be great if he could have some of the things he brought back today.

Moreover, if he has a good relationship with Pei Guang, maybe when there is a vacancy in the cafeteria in the future, Jie Cheng will also benefit from it.

Unfortunately, the other person is too smart now, so he can't tell his little plan out loud to avoid embarrassment.

But if he didn't say it, someone would. After he left, Liu Haizhong came directly to his door.

He smiled and said, "Deputy Director Pei, I came here specially to invite you and Liyun to come to my house for the New Year's Eve dinner tomorrow. It will be more lively with more people."

Pei Guang secretly laughed at his lackey-licking appearance, waved his hand and replied: "Second uncle, I have invited my uncle's family to come over tomorrow, so I won't bother you."

"Yes, yes! That's such an unfortunate coincidence!"

"By the way, last time I asked you to say a few good words to the leader, and now..." Liu Haizhong looked at him expectantly. God knows how long he had endured before coming over to ask.

In the past few days, he had lost his appetite and fantasized about the day when he would become a leader. Not only would he be able to suppress Yi Zhonghai, but he would also be able to act arrogantly in front of his subordinates.

But he was worried that he would act too hastily and offend Pei Guang, so today he finally asked about it.

Pei Guang had already thought of what to say, "Second Master, I may disappoint you."

"I heard Director Yang say the other day that we should try to select managers with higher education and strong overall qualities."

"When I thought about Second Uncle Gao's cultural background, I didn't feel comfortable bringing this up."

Liu Haizhong's face darkened. Isn't this nonsense? The purpose of looking for Pei Guang is to get a backdoor.

It turns out that after all this time, we are back to the starting point.

He resisted the urge to curse and said, "Why don't you say something good for me? Maybe the leader will give you this face."

"Forget it. I don't want my boss to have any opinion of me. Second Uncle, please think of another way."

Seeing that he refused, Liu Haizhong had to give up. After all, the other person's position was higher than his, and it was impossible for him to just turn against him.

Could it be that my Liu Haizhong has no destiny to be an official? At this moment, he was almost regretting it. If he had studied hard at that time, he wouldn't be in this situation now... Alas!

At the same time, Sha Zhu was talking about the New Year's Eve dinner in the deaf old lady's room.

"Grandma, please come to my house for the New Year's Eve dinner this year. I'm sure we'll have your favorite meat." Sha Zhu was afraid that she couldn't hear him, so he spoke a lot louder.

The deaf old lady's ears were almost broken by the shaking. This stupid guy was just pretending to be deaf and was not really deaf.

But she was quite touched by Sha Zhu's invitation to the New Year's Eve dinner. She had no shortage of food and drink now, the government would give her subsidies every month, and there were various preferential policies, including free visits to the hospital.

It’s just that he’s old and lacks someone to accompany him, and Sha Zhu is the only one in the courtyard who visits him often.

Originally, Yi Zhonghai wanted to invite her to have New Year's Eve dinner together, but now that Sha Zhu has invited her, she naturally has to decline.

There was a woman named Jia Zhang in the Jia family, and she found her eyesore no matter how she looked at her, so she simply turned a blind eye to her.

"By the way, Silly Zhu, how is your blind date going? I haven't heard you talk about it recently."

Sha Zhu's eyes dodged slightly, "Hey! There's no point in being anxious about this matter. It will come naturally when the time comes."

The deaf old lady sighed, thinking that her grandson must have been hit hard by the failed blind dates. Let's talk about it later.

Little did he know that Sha Zhu's house had already been robbed, and now he had his eyes on the young widow.

We haven't talked these past few days and he doesn't come to see me, so I should find a chance to visit him.

.........

At seven o'clock in the evening, Pei Guang received a notice that a meeting would be held in the courtyard in half an hour.

This is a common practice in our hospital, and we do this every year before the Chinese New Year.

There was nothing important to announce at the whole courtyard meeting. It was just emphasized that this year the courtyard house, under the leadership of three uncles, won the title of advanced courtyard.

Then the three old men took turns to speak, congratulating and wishing a happy new year in advance.

After the meeting, Sha Zhu secretly took the benefits he got from the factory and knocked on the Liang family’s door.

When Liang Ladi opened the door and saw it was him, a hint of surprise flashed in her eyes. She didn't expect him to come to her house. Could it be that he missed me?

It's not that she is narcissistic, there are so many men in the factory who covet her. Although she has given birth to four children, her figure is still curvy, so it's normal for her to charm this young man.

Although he was happy in his heart, he remained calm and asked, "Master He, is there anything I can help you with?"

Sha Zhu felt a little uncomfortable. At least they were both fine. Was it necessary to be so cold?

"I see that the New Year is coming soon, and I'm worried that Da Mao's children won't have enough to eat, so I sent them some food to replenish their bodies." Sha Zhu said insincerely, his little eyes fixed on Liang Ladi's face.

Oh my god! Why does this widow look better?

Liang Ladi was even happier to hear that he cared about the child. She took it with a smile and said, "You have a conscience. Leave the door open for me tonight!"

An expression of surprise flashed across Shazhu's face, and after coughing twice, he nodded silently.

Sha Zhu was so happy that his soul flew away. He felt that the surprise came too quickly. It turned out that his young widow still missed him.

The current situation was not suitable for saying more, as people would gossip about him if they saw him. So Sha Zhu delivered the things and left in a hurry.

Liang Ladi looked at his jumping figure and couldn't help but burst out laughing.

"You little brat! You can't escape from my grasp!"

"Mom, who is here?" Damao asked casually when he saw his mother coming back.

"It's your Uncle He. He brought some meat for you guys to eat."

Damao was so happy to hear this and kept saying Uncle He was so nice!

Liang Ladi wanted to ask if Sha Zhu could be his father, but she felt that the timing was not right, so she gave up.

I think Sha Zhu is very nice to them, so they shouldn't mind. I can give them a surprise when the time comes.

.........

Chapter 67 Chinese New Year

In the early hours of the morning, Liang Ladi came to Sha Zhu's house as if she was familiar with him, locked the door and came to the bed.

And Sha Zhu had been waiting for a long time, and what happened next cannot be described in detail.

Liang Ladi was still savoring the taste afterwards. As expected of a 20-year-old girl, she had a strong firepower.

Sha Zhu asked cautiously at this time, "Sister Liang, you said before that you are just one man, is that true?"

Liang Ladi's face changed, she sat up and asked, "What do you mean? Who do you think I am?"

Sha Zhu was anxious and explained hastily: "That's not what I meant. I just want to know how these rumors spread."

He had already thought it through. Liang Ladi could have taken the opportunity to ask for benefits from him, but she never did so. How could she sell herself out for something?

Seeing that he did not seem to be pretending, Liang Ladi lay down and told him the whole story.

It was nothing more than a matter of nutrition for the child, and she was teased in exchange for some food. In addition, many people were jealous of her high salary, and spread some gossip to slander her. When three people spread the gossip, the falsehood became true.

Sha Zhu nodded in understanding. It was indeed not easy for a widow to raise four children. It was already very difficult to achieve this.

Seeing that he didn't mind, Liang Ladi couldn't help but smile, and she was as happy as a 200-pound fat man.

"Okay, I'm afraid Xiu'er won't be able to find anyone when she wakes up, so I'll go back first."

Sha Zhu looked at her back and wanted to say something, but he held it back in the end.

But Liang Ladi didn't know that she was seen by someone when she was leaving. If she hadn't covered her mouth in time, she would have screamed.

All this seemed too unbelievable to her. Sister Liang actually... She felt that her ideas had been greatly impacted.

On New Year's Eve, when Pei Guang opened the door, he saw his sister sitting at the table in a daze, her expression switching back and forth between entanglement and confusion, which was so adorable.

"Hey! Liyun, what are you thinking about?"

Pei Liyun patted her chest and was almost frightened to death.

"Brother, why didn't you make any noise when you walked? You almost scared me to death."

Pei Liyun hesitated for a while, and felt that her brother had to make the decision on this matter, so she told him what she saw in the toilet last night.

Holy shit! Is this so exciting?

Sha Zhu is actually hooking up with Liang Ladi, this is impossible! A deal is definitely impossible, so the only thing left is feelings.

It seems that things are becoming more and more interesting!

"Brother, what do you think is going on between the two of them? Is Sister Liang really a promiscuous person?" Pei Liyun had heard from her uncle about Sister Liang's romantic past before, but she had never believed it. Her intuition told her that Sister Liang was not that kind of person.

But now the facts were before her, and she had no choice but to believe it. For a moment, she was completely confused.

Pei Guang knew what his sister thought all along, so he said softly, "I guess they have developed feelings for each other, maybe they will get married in the near future."

"My judgment is the same as yours. Liang Ladi is not that kind of person."

Pei Liyun smiled happily. Although she had no idea what was going on between the two of them, at least her idea was not wrong.

"Don't tell anyone about this, including Yu Shui. Wait and see how the situation develops after a while." Pei Guang warned seriously. Anyway, it had nothing to do with their family, so there was no need to stir up trouble.

Pei Liyun nodded, knowing the seriousness of the matter.

......

In the afternoon, Pei Guang started to get busy.

During this year's Chinese New Year, he specially invited his uncle's family to come over so that there would be more people to make it more lively.

Qin Zhaodi was making dumplings with a few children. Although the children were young, they were familiar with the technique and made them quite well.

Pei Liyun was cutting vegetables on the side. Her fingers tightly gripped the knife handle, and she held the handle steadily against the onion and cut quickly. Her fingers flipped on the handle, sensitively adjusting the angle of the knife to make the cut onion shreds more even.

Her movements were graceful and skillful, and under Pei Guang's guidance, her cooking skills improved at a pace visible to the naked eye.

When the sumptuous New Year's Eve dinner was ready, both adults and children swallowed subconsciously.

There were boiled fish, big plate chicken, beef meatballs, pork dumplings, and a few vegetarian dishes.

There was a New Year's greeting ceremony before the meal. Pei Xiangdong and his two siblings stood side by side and greeted their parents and Pei Guang one by one.

"I wish my father good health and my mother young and beautiful."

"Okay, Dad will give you New Year's money!"

Pei Zhenrong took out three red envelopes from his pocket and distributed them to the children one by one. The three children were all grinning from ear to ear.

"I wish Brother Guang can find a wife soon."

Pei Guang seemed quite happy before, but why did he become urged to get married now? After all, he was only 19 years old after the Chinese New Year, and he couldn't get a marriage certificate even if he had a wife.

Looking at my sister who was laughing secretly beside me, there was nothing I didn't understand.

There is no other way! Just pay the red envelope!

Pei Zhenrong said seriously: "Xiao Guang must hurry up and get married early. Only after having children can you be considered a real adult."

Pei Guang had no choice but to answer yes. People nowadays lack fun in life and have nothing to do at night, so they have to work hard!

Qin Zhaodi found out two days ago that she was pregnant again. There is a reason why she has so many brothers and sisters.
