Siheyuan: The Ambition of Sanzang

Chapter 37 37. The Gramophone

It was raining in May, the water in the moat was flowing happily, the willows by the river began to dance, and the breeze was blowing, already warm like summer.

Sitting in front of the desk, Sanzang recalled that Jingru at home was more than two months pregnant, and his heart felt sweet and full of happiness!
It was confirmed in the hospital at the end of February. Pregnant women are prone to accidents in the first three months. He had to move his mother-in-law to take care of her.

Now Jingru is the family's first-class national treasure. Her mother does all the laundry and cooking. Living in a honeypot every day is like a dream.

Sanzang also resigned from the position of chief of the propaganda section, and officially became the deputy director of the administrative department.

He also helped Qin Huairu out of some bad intentions. Her current salary has been raised to 35 yuan, which is only 2 yuan less than Shazhu.

And every month she can borrow 5 yuan and 10 catties of stick noodles from Jingru, and her life has begun to be nourished.

Sanzang also let it go, why did Song Jiang make such a big name, and he has a good reputation.

Now he has received a huge amount of assistance from the Lou family, and because Jingru is pregnant, everyone in the courtyard can understand that he has a lot of fish and meat every three days.

There is no one who is not open-eyed to find fault, he no longer cares about these three melons and two dates.

This made Silly Zhu miserable, Qin Huairu no longer needed his help, and would no longer help him with housework and laundry.

The house is in a mess every day, and the clothes on my body are also dirty and smell like oily smoke. I don’t know who to hate.

Except that his sister He Yushui came back every Sunday to help him wash and clean the room.

He Yushui also disliked Sha Zhu more and more.

Yi Zhonghai's attitude is also changing quietly, Shazhu is no longer his only choice.

At the beginning of April, Bang Geng really fulfilled his promise, and by picking up junk, he also lost Xu Damao's 5 yuan for stealing chicken money.

Sanzang also kept his promise, so he took Jinggu, his mother-in-law and Qin Huairu's family, except Jia Zhang, to see Lao Mo's last afterglow.

Because in a few months, silver tableware will turn into wooden chopsticks, and Western food will turn into steamed buns, and it will take more than ten years to recover.

The stick has also completely changed, and he has become the pretentious brother among his peers in the courtyard. He always says, "Has Lao Mo ever eaten? My little uncle brought me to eat! That guy..."

Anyone who wants to provoke him is "wait until I ask my little uncle to find someone to kill you", good guy, no one dares to provoke him.

Now that he knows the benefits of money, he picks up junk everywhere, and sometimes he picks up things that look like old things and brings them to Sanzang.

Sanzang didn't know him, so he threw it in the corner and dismissed it to someone who was only half a cent, and the sticks became more enthusiastic, which was much better than selling rags.

Qin Huairu went to see Lao Mo also changed, and finally realized that she used to be a frog at the bottom of a well, and completely looked down on Sha Zhu, so she gave up the idea of ​​marrying Sha Zhu.

I don't want to engage in those nonsense anymore, and I put all my mind on work.

According to this kind of momentum, Sanzang might really be able to get her a small official position. If her salary increases, life will be even more promising. Now that Jingru is pregnant, she will run to his house more often.

Xu Damao's reputation has been completely ruined, and coupled with his infertility, he can only go to the countryside to play movies to deceive little widows and stupid girls.

As long as he brings him into the courtyard, Shazhu will definitely destroy it, and the two will fall in love and kill each other even more fiercely.

It's the same with Sha Zhu, Xu Damao will be blacked out when he catches him, and he has become sloppy, and no girls come to the door.

Today, Factory Manager Yang called his secretary to tell Sanzang not to leave after get off work.

Although he didn't understand Boss Duan's approach and was at a loss, he accepted it wholeheartedly.

When Sanzang came to the parking lot, he happened to bump into Silly Zhu, "Brother Zhu!"

He has always given Shazhu face very much, and the way to talk is to be sweet, and a knife in the back is the kingly way, there is no need to make it seem like fire and water are incompatible when meeting.

Shazhu also thinks that Sanzang is a good buddy, and Qin Huairu really can't blame him.

When he arrived at the place, just as Sanzang was about to open the door to get out, Xu Damao opened the car door to flatter him. When he saw Sanzang, his face changed, but he didn't dare to shake his face.

"Brother Hat!" It is also appropriate to respect someone by wearing a hat.

Factory Manager Yang disliked Shazhu's taste, so he drove him to the front co-pilot.

After getting out of the car, Director Yang gave instructions to the two of them, and then Secretary Chen came out, and the two chatted for a while.

"Brother Chen!"

"Brother Huang!"

"This is He Yuzhu, the chef! This is Xu Damao, the projectionist! You make the arrangements! Xiao Huang, let's go."

Sanzang followed Factory Director Yang to the living room, and saw Boss Duan sitting upright with a few people, who exchanged pleasantries for a while, of course he only had to listen and drink.

"Okay! Everyone is here! Let's watch a movie first!"

A group of people followed Boss Duan to the door of the small conference room, and they heard Xu Damao slandering Shazhu. He didn't dare to slander Sanzang now.

Boss Duan's face was ashen, and he came back without saying a word. After that, Xu Damao was driven away.

"The current situation is not optimistic! I invite you here today not to drink! I want to give you a breath."

Everyone's expressions changed slightly when they heard this, Sanzang looked confident and calm, and he was ready for everything.

Boss Duan glanced at him inadvertently, wondering if he was a bell-like genius.

"Boss! The dishes are ready."

"Oh! So fast! Come! Eat and chat!"

Elder Duan put on a little show in front of everyone and guessed two dishes.

Then it was Sha Zhu's turn to pretend to be dumb, and after some manipulations, he successfully fooled Boss Duan, and he was very happy.

After eating, Sanzang sat outside and waited for everyone to finish the meeting, preparing to leave with Director Yang.

Boss Duan suddenly stopped him, "Can Xiao Huang play Go? Play a few games with me."

"Ah! A little bit! Go is easy to learn but hard to master, and your strength is limited. I'm afraid it's ridiculous!"

Of course Sanzang did not dare to pretend that he understood something.

"It's okay!"

"You really know a little bit! Hahaha!"

The two listened to the music and played several sets. In fact, Boss Duan was not very clever.

It's fun to abuse people for a while, and it's always fun to abuse people all the time, and finally caught a bad guy.

Sanzang was a little tired after sitting for a long time, so he stood up and walked to the phonograph, listening carefully.

"Can you hear what it is?"

"Is this probably the symphony of fate?"

"Have you heard it before?"

"No! I learned about it when I was reading a book before. The independent (German) composer Beethoven wrote it when he was deaf in both ears from 1804 to 1808."

"Yes! Destiny is destiny! The destiny of the country! The destiny of the individual! The small is the big, and the big is the small."

"Duke Zhou was afraid of the days of rumors, but Wang Mang was still humble. Xiang Shi died at the beginning, so who knows if it will be true or not?"

"Hehehe! You little comrade is interesting!"

"Yellow raccoon and black raccoon, the male who gets the rat!"

"Oh? Hmm..."

After Sanzang finished speaking, he stopped talking and stared at the phonograph carefully. He had never seen such a thing before.

"Take it back if you like it!"

"Is it okay? Forget it, 'A gentleman does not take what is good from others!' Let me borrow it! One day in the future, if the big boss wants to hear it, I will send it back to you!"

"Okay! Take it, it's useless to me! I'll ask the driver to take you back!"

"Then thank you! But there is one sentence that I don't know whether to say or not?"

"Just say what you want! I don't blame you if I say something wrong!"

"I see that the big boss loves the cook just now. I would like to remind you: you should be more cautious in employing people! Just use it and don't believe it!"

"Oh?! Do you know the cook just now?"

"We've known each other for about 5 or 6 years! We live in a courtyard!"

"Well! How is this person!"

"I can only say that the cooking skills are superb! You can find someone to understand the rest. Thank you for your gramophone! I will leave first!"

"Everyone is gone! Why are you reluctant?"

"Hey! That's right! This son is like a jade in the rough, like a diamond waiting to be polished, but unfortunately he has no intention of official career, so he can only be a high-ranking candidate in the future!"

"Old man, are you exaggerating too much?"

"Exaggeration? Not at all! His management of the Five Constant Laws has been fully promoted, and the effect is amazing.

I called him here today just to thank him, but I didn't expect to have unexpected gains!Hahaha! "

"What kind of crazy is this!"

"Master, thank you! Turn left and turn around!"

Sanzang was walking back with the phonograph in his arms, and ran into Yan Bugui again, "Director Huang, what is this good thing?"

"Hey! Little thing! Not worth mentioning! Not worth mentioning! You're busy! You're busy!"

"Everyone in this courtyard is going to post it! Just now Shazhu was riding in a small jeep, and here is another one in a car! Is this going to change?"

"Daughter-in-law! See what this is?"

"Oh! What's delicious?"

"Eat, eat, eat! Know how to eat every day!"

Sanzang poked Jingru's forehead fondly.

"Listen! It's called a phonograph! Listen!"

Well!For Niu playing the piano, Jingru couldn't tell her anything good.
