Siheyuan: Happy He Yuzhu

Chapter 46 46, Return with letter

What is the relationship between Mr. Lou and the old lady?
In fact, He Daqing also wanted to ask this question when Director Lou asked Yi Zhonghai for mercy last time!
It must be related, and judging from Lou Dong's appearance.It’s still a relationship that I feel helpless and can’t refuse!

This kind of thing, after all, you owe someone something!

We can't explore these for the time being, but what can I say? You let a bored soul return to a familiar plot without exploring the private relationship between them!So what did you do there?
Uncle Qian is very excited today!Standing at the door of the yard, he saw He Yuzhu. He shook the envelope in his hand and laughed loudly: "Zhuzhu, Zhuzhu, there is news about my son! He has written a letter!"

He Yuzhu was also very happy to see this kind of thing!Let the good people get a good ending, which is the ultimate requirement of a good story!So he hurriedly raised his hands and said with a smile: "Congratulations, Uncle Qian, you are very happy now! Did my brother Qian say when he will come over?"

At this moment, Uncle Qian felt that this child was really sensible!This question touched his heart!

Uncle Qian laughed and said: "You are still a smart boy. Your brother Qian said in the letter that he has already married and changed his career there! He said that he just gave birth to a grandson for me. When the child is older, the whole family will come over. Look at me!"

This man's life depends entirely on his spirit!It turned out that Uncle Qian, although he did not look sick, his face was full of twilight!But now, the voice is high, the face is red, and the eyes that were originally dim are now full of joy!

At this time, Uncle Gan, who came out to take out the garbage in the backyard, also answered: "Old Qian, this is a great event, and we need to set up a table to celebrate!"

Upon hearing this, Uncle Qian patted his intact thigh.I used too much force and swayed backwards. If I hadn't been leaning against the door, I would have shot myself into the hospital!

Lao Qian leaned against the door and did not stand up in a hurry. He smiled and said: "This is the truth, this is the justice, then let's choose a day when everyone is here! I will pay for it!..."

Lao Gan also smiled and answered: "Then I will help run errands, buy groceries, buy wine and so on! You will cook when the pillar arrives!"

"Hey, okay!" He Yuzhu simply accepted the task. This was a serious matter.Who dares to give Uncle Qian any discomfort at this time will probably make this old man remember it for a lifetime!

The role that He Yuzhu can play is naturally to buy and cook food!

I have discussed with the two uncles how many people there will be and how much a table will cost!Then I drew up the menu!

It turns out that Lao Gan and He Yuzhu thought that they should follow the old rules and have a head of each family.

Who knew that Lao Qian was so happy that he insisted on asking the elderly and children to celebrate together!
This is a big deal, with seven or eight dishes per table, plus drinks, which is also a big expense!

Although old money has money, it can’t be built like this!
Lao Gan also regretted a little. If he had known earlier, he would not have invited the guests!These days, no one’s money comes from strong winds!What's more, the little money in Lao Qian's hands was saved through his teeth!

Lao Gan and He Yuzhu looked at each other, and Lao Gan nuzzled at He Yuzhu!I want him to persuade old man Qian!

He Yuzhu could only bite the bullet and said: "Uncle Qian, let me see it this way! As for the children and the elderly, if you ask them to sit down and eat at the main table, they will not be able to eat well. When the time comes, this person will grab an extra piece and that person will eat less, which will cause trouble. Unpleasant!"

Seeing that the old man was listening carefully, he probably listened too!

At this time, people are still short of oil and water, and it doesn’t mean that only the Jia and Zhang family are like this when they eat at a banquet!

It should be said that when most people see meat, they want to eat more and occupy more!

All kinds of disgusting tricks were also performed one after another. The one who pulled all the meat and vegetables into his bowl was just a little trick.When some people see their favorite dishes on the table, it’s not uncommon for them to spit in the dishes first!
There are also peanuts, peanuts are the hardest hit area.Basically, the naughty children like this the most. Just put the peanuts on the plate into your pocket and you can eat them all day long!

So at that time, it was normal to find two family members to look after the food!One is specifically looking at the raw materials. This is to guard against villains!One is dedicated to watching the dishes being laid out, and this one is dedicated to watching the naughty children!
As for bringing a bag or a lunch box to hold leftovers, it’s also normal!But there are only a few like Jia and Zhang!Most of them wait for the guests to finish eating, and those who are left to help will be given points by each family!No one would object to saying that these were things they had eaten before!
There is no way, I am poor!

He Yuzhu continued: "In my opinion, it is better to let the elderly and children serve at the table and cause unhappiness.

Why not order more meat from a butcher, then cut it into pieces and braise it, or braise it and cut it into pieces!
Everyone is fair and everyone is happy!At most, the difference is that the meat is big and the meat is small!For everything else, we still follow the old etiquette! "

Uncle Gan did some calculations in his mind. This way, he would save a lot of money and not be so busy!
Nowadays, there are still public and private businesses, so there is no such thing as buying meat with a ticket a few years ago!
Mostly when it comes to business, everything can be negotiated!

Find a butcher you know well and tell them the amount you need and which part you need!It's none of the customer's business whether the butcher makes adjustments or something!
Before Uncle Gan could settle the accounts, Uncle Qian had already come out of his excitement!When I think about it, this is indeed the truth!So he smiled and said: "This is a good idea, just do what Zhuzi said!"

He Yuzhu was able to get involved in things like buying vegetables, but he left the meat buying to Uncle Gan!Since he has taken over, He Yuzhu cannot interfere with it!What if the family relationship is relatively strong?

Just like He Daqing, every year at the end of the year, there are always butchers and vegetable vendors who are familiar with him and give him New Year gifts!Thanks to him for taking care of the business year round!
This kind of thing is still happening now. Even if you own a restaurant and you try to keep the prices down when you go shopping, the stall owners will prepare some rare ingredients before the Chinese New Year and give some to each restaurant!

This is the Chinese people’s sophistication!Even if I can’t make you any money, you must have feelings!
So although He Yuzhu also knew the butcher on the other side of He Daqing, when he heard Lao Gan say that he was going to get meat, he just assumed that there was no such way!Maybe they are really kind!

That's all the favors in the yard!
When all the vegetables and meat were pulled to the yard on carts, He Daqing also came to join in the fun!
No one else knows about this!But Uncle Qian welcomes it!To be honest, he was really afraid that He Yuzhu, a half-hearted person, would ruin his meal!
When the small courtyard is full of laughter!
Two street office workers, a man and a woman, came to the big courtyard!The first family approached Yan Bugui, and naturally they were investigating the matter of the old lady in the backyard!
In fact, probably except for Yi Zhonghai, no one in the courtyard knew much about the old lady’s past!

The same is true for Yan Bugui!
"Comrade Yan, do you have anything else to add?" The person speaking was none other than Officer Wang, whom He Yuzhu knew!
Yan Bugui frowned and thought for a while and said, "I don't know too well. The old lady moved here around the same time as mine. It is said that she swapped houses with someone else. She said it was more popular here and she was not lonely! But I heard her scolding the old lady in the middle hospital. When I was the daughter-in-law of the Jia family, she once said something! She said that when Jia and Zhang married, she was the ancestor of this courtyard! "

"What's wrong with this sentence?" Director Wang asked strangely!

"Mr. Wang, what should I say about this? Well, it is said that Mrs. Jia Zhang lived here with her man when she was young! But later she moved back to the countryside! Her son came to take over the job, so there are arrangements Here! I don't know if it's still their original house! And the old lady moved in around the same time as my family!" Yan Bugui explained!
Although the words were not finished, Director Wang naturally understood the meaning behind the words!She just came here and is not familiar with the street office!That’s why I ask these questions!For some elderly people in the street office, when they talk about a certain household, all the information about that household will automatically pop up in their mind, just like a computer!
Officer Wang asked several more families, but the Yi family and the Jia family did not ask, and I don't know if they ignored them!Or something else!
The old lady naturally knew that the street office was investigating her!What a good godson!

The neighbors wouldn't say anything to her, but they weren't so defensive about Yi Zhonghai!

With Yi Zhonghai's words, he understood that someone from above was investigating the old lady!

So after Officer Wang and the others left, they hurried to the old lady’s house in the backyard!

Come in, close the door first!
Then he turned around and said breathlessly to the old lady: "It's trouble, old lady! People from the street office were checking your origin just now!"

The old lady gave Yi Zhonghai a cold look, which made Yi Zhonghai's panicked heart suddenly calm down!
The old lady calmly said to Yi Zhonghai: "Why are you panicking? Is it possible that an old lady with small feet like me can still be an enemy agent?"

Seeing that Yi Zhonghai was still waiting for him to speak, he thought for a moment and wanted to speak, but he sighed softly first, "Oh, I originally thought that I couldn't keep the house in hand, so why not exchange it for a five-guarantee household quota, which can give me some extra points?" My reputation means that my old lady cannot be underestimated in the yard! I can also help you with your work! I didn’t expect this accident! From now on, we, mother and son, have to be careful in our lives!"

Yi Zhonghai asked: "Old lady, we have been interrogated several times during the liberation! Why does it seem that this time it is specifically for you? Did someone report you?"

While talking, he pointed in the direction of He Yuzhu's house. When the old lady heard Yi Zhonghai's words, she also made up her mind. Then she shook her head and said, "It shouldn't be the Qing family. Their relationship has been harmonious since you came. Only now and then do you give me some rare things! But the Qing Dynasty has never asked me about my past! They probably don’t know! By the way, who did the people from the street office go to today? "

Yi Zhonghai hurriedly replied: "In addition to my family, there is also the Jia family, and everyone else who has someone at home has gone!"

When she heard that the street office had not gone to Jia's house, the old lady also frowned!Seeing the old lady's reaction, Yi Zhonghai quickly asked: "Is it possible that you are old and suspect that it is the old lady of the Jia family?"

The old lady shook her head and said, "I can't tell now. It's possible which company made the report! Anyway, we live our own lives! If it doesn't work, my old lady will go to jail! I'm already so old, so it's not a loss!"

Yi Zhonghai is not afraid of the old lady going to jail!Even if the old lady is shot, she doesn't care about him!

Yi Zhonghai took a deep look at the old lady, turned around and left!

In fact, the investigation by the sub-district office is also a common practice. Most of the cases are not unknown to the superiors. Most of them are just the people who do not take action and the officials do not investigate!

For example, now, a file passed from the area where the old lady originally lived is placed on Director Wang's desk!

Officer Wang opened the file and looked at it. He frowned first and then rubbed his brow!It is written clearly on it that according to the investigation by neighbors, Chen Lou is suspected to be the concubine of Wang Moumou, the former captain of the checkpoint team. She once had a son who was later picked up by Wang Moumou's wife. Before liberation, his son was a skinhead. Low-level bureaucrats, flee!
As if he remembered something, Director Wang took out another document from the pile of documents beside him.The above is the list of households with five guarantees in Nanluoguxiang that are ready to apply to the higher authorities!
After searching it for a while, I found Chen Lou’s name!
The reason for the declaration below is also very clear. According to the investigation, there are no direct relatives in Sijiu City!In a patriotic act, under the promotion of the neighborhood office, we actively donated our spare housing!
Naturally, below is the name of the investigator. Director Wang also knew that person. He was a retained clerk. Later, he was found to be involved in a case of house occupation before liberation. He was cleared and dealt with in accordance with the law!

Officer Wang picked up the two reports and knocked on the office of the sub-district office director!With a "come in" sound!

Officer Wang pushed open the door and walked in. Inside the office was the director of the subdistrict office, who was about to be promoted!And the person who succeeded him was Director Wang!

Director Wang smiled and said: "Director Duan, I have something to report to you!"

Director Duan saw that it was Director Wang who came in, and he knew this person's backstage very well. If it weren't for her, he wouldn't have been promoted so quickly to make way for her!Although I was squeezed out, I still had to say thank you to others. I had no choice, after all, I was Gaosheng!
Director Duan smiled and said: "Director Wang, sit down and talk first! You won't be able to come to me easily!"

Director Wang was not used to this official routine of laughing before speaking, so he just managed to twitch the corner of his mouth!So he went over and handed the two documents to Director Duan!Said: "Director Duan, we received a report that there are some problems in the re-examination of the five-guarantee household information to be declared!"

Director Duan saw that Director Wang really had something to do, and it was a matter of clean-up and inventory that had been emphasized in recent meetings, so he couldn't help but pay attention to it!

After grabbing the documents and comparing them, I discovered the loopholes in the application materials!
Director Duan cursed angrily: "Who wrote this original declaration? Damn it, Spring and Autumn writing style was used on me! There are no direct relatives in Sijiu City! He ran away, he must not be in Sijiu City City! Investigate! Investigate to the end!"

Most of today's cadres come from the military, and they usually learn official etiquette, but when something happens, their original straightforward temperament comes out!
Officer Wang was not surprised by this.Even the guy from her family, even though he is already a municipal cadre, still mostly scolds me when something happens!This has nothing to do with whether you are a cultural person or not!

Officer Wang actually smiled, for no other reason than for any other reason, as if he had met a familiar comrade!
Officer Wang smiled and said: "The person who wrote the report was the clerk who was originally retained by the previous dynasty. He was dismissed and reviewed last year due to other matters! I am not sure what I am catching now is this old lady. Should we check carefully! "

Director Duan also rubbed his head in annoyance and said with a wry smile: "Director Wang, I also want to check, but there are not enough manpower now and there are too many things! Let's withhold her five-guarantee household application materials for the time being! There will be time later. Let’s check again slowly!”
