Siheyuan: Chen Xueru helped me intercept Hu Qin Huairu

Chapter 162 Yan Bugui comes to discuss New Year’s Eve dinner

As soon as Xu Damao called him uncle, the voice of Xu Damao's father came from outside the door.

"Da Mao...what, is there a hospital-wide meeting today?"

Xu Damao felt aggrieved immediately after hearing this.

"Dad, Mom, if you don't come back, your son will be dead, woo woo woo."

Hearing this, Lao Xu was confused. What happened? It was the New Year and they were going to buy some meat. Why was their son dying?

When Old Xu was still confused, Xu's mother hurriedly took two steps forward and saw Xu Damao sitting on the chair at a glance.

"Oh, Damao, what's wrong with you? Damn it...who bullied my Damao."

Seeing Xu's mother looking over, Li Xiuzhu said, "Sister-in-law, don't look at me. I won't hit a junior unless it's a big deal."

"Da Mao was fighting with Silly Zhu. We just mediated."

Then he looked at Xu's father who had done it and said, "Brother Xu, I asked Shazhu to pay twenty yuan and be fined for two months. Is it okay to wait and see?"

Xu's father just wanted to speak, but Xu's mother stopped.

"You just want to get away with 20 yuan, but that's not okay. If you can't afford 20 yuan, you must be fined heavily."

Li Xiuzhu heard the words and said: "Da Mao provoked me first, scolded Yu Yu first. If you are not satisfied, you can call the police. If you don't go to the police station, you will probably not be able to pay even 20 yuan."

"Besides, the two of them were fighting, not just hurting each other, so Damao will have to clean the yard for a month after he recovers."

The two of them were startled and asked: "My Damao was beaten, does he still have to be punished?"

Li Xiuzhu nodded affirmatively.

"I have said before that fighting is strictly prohibited in the compound. If you have any problem, you can come to us, the uncles. Since Damao violated it, he will naturally be punished."

As he spoke, Li Xiuzhu continued: "Instead of asking questions here, you two, why not take Damao to the hospital first to see if the injury is serious. Let's treat the injury and wait until it is cured."

Hearing this, Old Xu was startled and quickly said: "Yes, yes, yes, don't delay Damao's medical treatment."

"Li Xiuzhu, can you lend me your bicycle?"

Hearing this, Li Xiuzhu shook his head and said: "You are really afraid that nothing will happen to Damao. He can only be pulled by a flatbed truck now. If any bones are injured, even the slightest bump will cause an accident."

"Don't talk about bicycles, you can't even ride in cars. If he gets bumped, Damao might be disabled."

When Xu Damao heard that he was going to be disabled, his expression suddenly changed.

"Disabled? This can't be done, Dad, Mom, I can't be disabled."

Li Xiuzhu smiled warmly and said comfortingly: "Of course, what I said is serious, but be careful and sail the ship for ten thousand years."

Old Xu was paralyzed and asked in confusion: "No, what should we do? I don't have a flat cart at home, and I can't pull it by myself."

Hearing this, Li Xiuzhu said: "Go to the middle courtyard and ask Lao Yi to borrow a flat car, and ask Sha Zhu to pick up the people. You and Lao Yi can help, and the three of you will have no trouble."

"Then my sister-in-law watched the road, remembering not to press on the rocks, and send Damao there smoothly."

Li Xiuzhu's words immediately gave everyone a backbone, and Xu's father hurriedly ran towards the middle courtyard.

Lao Xu ran all the way to Yi Zhonghai's house and said, Yi Zhonghai nodded, then got up and went to He Yuzhu's house to call Sha Zhu out.

At first, He Yuzhu didn't want to go. He had already lost money, so why should he go?

But Yi Zhonghai said that this matter is not over yet. If the old Xu family is good, they will definitely be willing to reconcile. If he is disabled, there will definitely be no reconciliation, and he may be fired from his job as a chef in the steel rolling mill.

The iron rice bowl is iron, but it must be on the premise that you do not violate laws and disciplines, otherwise there will be no negotiation with you.

Haven't you seen Bai Manning in the Pentium Era, who almost lost his emotions even after reading a manuscript?

Li Xiuzhu did not get involved in the subsequent events and would not know the result until Yi Zhonghai came back.

Before dinner, Yi Zhonghai said that Xu Damao's lower body was a little red and swollen and his body was a little bruised, but there was no big problem.

Li Xiuzhu was not surprised. With the current technology, it is possible to check whether there are fractures, internal injuries, etc. If you want to check the urinary system, there is no place to check it.

Even Renhe Hospital now has Chinese medicine in this area.

Of course, in another ten years, large hospitals like Renhe may not be able to introduce B-ultrasound machines, while ordinary county towns will have to wait until 80 years later.

In the evening, Li Xiuzhu and Chen Xueru went to the tavern.

Chen Xueru liked to listen to talk about mountains and rivers, so she went to drink wine by herself without letting Li Xiuzhu accompany her, so she asked Li Xiuzhu to go directly to Xu Huizhen's courtyard.

Li Xiuzhu now has the key and is familiar with the road.

But Xu Huizhen is in the yard today, and the door is open.

As soon as Li Xiuzhu entered the courtyard, Xu Huizhen heard the movement and looked over at the window.

Li Xiuzhu said nothing, waved his hand to say hello, and went directly into the house.

Xu Huizhen asked cautiously: "Brother Li, is the door locked?"

Li Xiuzhu nodded and said, "Don't worry, I know what to expect."

Xu Huizhen threw herself into Li Xiuzhu's arms and said softly: "Brother, I miss you."

Li Xiuzhu hugged Xu Huizhen and smiled and said: "I have been quite busy in the past two years. It will be fine when I finish working on Daying. Then we can get married."

Xu Huizhen nodded with a "hmm", her face suddenly turned red, and she said with a bit of shyness: "Brother, I put Li'er to sleep."

They are all foxes of thousands of years. How could Li Xiuzhu not understand the meaning of Xu Huizhen's words, and immediately hugged Xu Huizhen.

Xu Huizhen dressed up specially today. Not only did she wear high heels, but also stockings and a cheongsam. Although she was only in her early twenties, she already had a somewhat mature look.

……

After experiencing dire straits again, Xu Huizhen once again felt regretful.

It wasn't that she was unwilling, but that she regretted her own overestimation. She felt this way every time Li Xiuzhu came, but she just didn't want to change it.

She could basically see Li Xiuzhu twice a month, and she only met once with great difficulty. She really didn't want to share it with others.

So even if I regret it every time, I still refuse to change despite repeated admonitions and focus on being a rebel.

After waking up Xiao Jingli, Xiao Jingli giggled when she saw that Li Xiuzhu was not crying even when he came.

Xu Huizhen, who was still awake, heard this and said, "Brother, there is something I want to ask you."

Li Xiuzhu teased Li'er and responded, "Well, tell me, what's the matter?"

Xu Huizhen flipped her hair, held her head and said, "That's right... our tavern can make an extra fifty-six yuan this year."

"This is a reward. Who do you think I should give it to?"

With that said, Xu Huizhen talked about the situation of each house in the tavern.

Hearing this, Li Xiuzhu said: "It depends on whether your money is a bonus or a poverty alleviation fund. If it is a bonus, then you must keep your word and distribute it according to needs."

"This affects the enthusiasm of employees, so what I mean is that bonuses are paid, and then we look at poverty alleviation."

Xu Huizhen heard this and said: "Brother, we can be considered as poverty alleviation. We usually get bonuses every month, and we draw one out of ten."

Li Xiuzhu nodded again when he heard this.

"Since it's poverty alleviation, it's easy to say, but people suffer from poverty and uneven suffering."

"So what I mean is that poverty alleviation is divided into three parts. People with ten people in the family like Zhao Yali, who are really in difficulty, can get a large part. Twenty-five yuan is the most."

"Master Ma is left alone to support the family, and he will be divided into ten yuan."

"In addition, Fan Jinyou, Kong Yuqin, and Li Youmei are not that difficult. They don't cost five yuan per person to raise."

"You and Cai Quanwu should break up. Both managers have a lot of salary."

"The remaining money will be purchased into fried peanuts, one for each person. Everyone must have this, including you and Cai Quanwu, otherwise you are ignorant." Xu Huizhen was enlightened after hearing this. She thought at first It was all for Zhao Yali. Now when I heard it, I realized that there was a big problem with her idea.

If it is so divided, the people below will definitely have resentment even if they don't say anything.

Maybe it's easy to talk about at the beginning, but it will definitely become more contradictory as time goes by.

Xu Huizhen smiled and said, "Brother, you are so thoughtful. You are so awesome."

Li Xiuzhu smiled and said: "How can I be so thoughtful? There is someone more powerful at home."

"Sister Xueru?"

Li Xiuzhu shook his head and said, "It's another one, Jiang Meiying, your sister Meiying."

"Although Xueru makes up her mind, she does things based on her preferences and is not as thoughtful as Mei Ying."

"But Xueru is also smart and can understand people's hearts very accurately, so we don't worry about her making wrong decisions."

"Wait until the first day of the new year. Before lunch, I will pick you and Li'er up to live in the courtyard for two days and introduce you to them."

Xu Huizhen rarely asked about Li Xiuzhu's affairs, but she did not expect that there was such a strange woman there. Although she had not met her, she admired her deeply.

She was curious about what kind of posture a woman like her brother Li would praise.

"Okay, but is it convenient for me to go there? Brother Li, don't you live in a large courtyard?"

Li Xiuzhu shook his head and said, "I have two residences at home. One is in Maoer Hutong. They are all my family members. They are safe."

Li Xiuzhu looked at the time and said, "Come on, it's getting late. You can go to sleep. I'll lock the door for you from the outside. Wait until Cai Quanwu opens it tomorrow morning."

Xu Huizhen was a little reluctant to give up, but she also knew that it was impossible for a man to stay at her place. She nodded and said, "Okay, brother, please be careful on the road."

Now Cai Quanwu is married. After all, he did not marry Director Ma's sister. Instead, he introduced a woman from Chen Xueru's factory.

She is not ugly. She used to be a concubine of a wealthy family, but was later divorced. She is quite decent and has some temperament.

After all, he is the public manager. Although he is only the public manager of a tavern, he makes a lot of money.

Although Cai Quanwu looks a bit like a potato, he is more pragmatic in this era.

It is better to have enough money to eat.

I don't know if Cai Quanwu has the same ancestor as the old He family. If he doesn't love little girls, he just loves to marry someone.

Five people met in one day, and the four little girls just fell in love with someone who was married to someone else.

That woman is okay too. She already had morning sickness after three months of marriage to Cai Quanwu.

Although Cai Quanwu is married and has children, he is not a person who forgets his roots. He still comes to help Xu Huizhen when he has nothing to do, and he still helps in the tavern.

Early the next morning, no... it was getting late. At about three o'clock in the morning, Yan Bugui knocked on the door of Li Xiuzhu's house.

Wang Fengxia led the people into the house. When Yan Bugui saw Li Xiuzhu, his eyes lit up immediately. He came to the table and said, "Brother Li, you have to eat such hard food so early in the morning."

Li Xiuzhu smiled and said, "Let's eat something together?"

Yan Bugui looked at the beef patties on the table with greed, but still shook his head.

"I just finished eating. I came to tell you about the New Year's Eve dinner."

Li Xiuzhu nodded, stopped greeting Yan Bugui, and listened while eating.

Yan Bugui said: "Didn't we agree to order banquets before? I counted ten houses in total, and thirty-eight people came, that is, four to five tables."

"But there were mostly children inside, so we only charged 15.8 yuan in total. Even for four tables, it was a bit tight."

Tables of four only cost four yuan per table, and that doesn't include wine, which is indeed a bit less.

Li Xiuzhu smiled when he heard this and said, "It's okay. I'll set up six tables and I'll post the rest."

"My family wants two tables. Brother Yan knows that I have a large family."

"Let's do it like this. I'll pay thirty, and I'll make it six yuan per table, and I'll buy wine and candies for the rest."

"But the meat and noodles now require tickets, so each family has to donate according to their share."

"You don't need to donate too much. Children under ten years old will count as two taels, three taels over ten years old, and adults as half a catty. I will make up for the rest."

"Meat costs four yuan per table."

Pork now costs 76 cents per pound and 85 cents per pound, which means suet is expensive.

Counting this to me, I have to have five kilograms of pork per table. According to Li Xiuzhu, adults and children are counted as half a kilogram per person. How can we all eat delicious food?

If you don't pay for it, you will lose money.

Counting adults and children, there must be seven or eight people who didn't pay for it.

The family's money could never be spent in a few lifetimes, but now that his situation has opened up, he is not short of those three melons and two dates.

"Okay, you, Li Xiuzhu, are still angry."

"Brother, I can't let you pay for the ticket in vain. I have to give you a good publicity when the time comes."

"Of course, you can't let those people behind you take advantage of you. Don't worry, brother, I will definitely give you the publicity."

Yan Bugui has also noticed in the past two years that Li Xiuzhu's family loves fame and fortune. He doesn't know how many times it has been published in the newspapers. He must publicize the reputation of his good brother.

Li Xiuzhu didn't refuse either.

"Okay, then I'll bother you, brother."

"Hey, what's the trouble? If you do something good, you have to let people know about it."

Yan Bugui smiled and continued: "It is not advisable to travel at night in brocade clothes."

"Eaters have short tongues. First you have to let them know that they have eaten you."

Li Xiuzhu suddenly laughed when he heard this.

"Did you see it?"

Yan Bugui didn't refute, and said: "You can see that there is so much meaning."

“I only thought it was a change before, and I always thought it was just a restriction, but after I received the invoice, I looked at it for a while and finally understood it.”

"But it's up to you, Brother Li. Your vision is several years ahead of my brother."

Yan Bugui could only see the surface. After all, no one except him, a time traveler, could see what would happen ten years later.

If you want to see it, it will take at least ten years.

You have to wait for those words to be shouted out.

Well, I will go away for a year and a half, and then come back when those educated youths have gone to the countryside.

Although he has many backup options, who knows if there will be an accident.

Li Xiuzhu smiled and said, "I'm not as smart as you think, brother. I just occasionally know a little bit of inside information in advance."

Hearing this, Yan Bugui's eyes lit up and he said, "Brother, this is a man with great supernatural powers, and the real person can't show his face."

"If you hear any news, don't forget me."

Li Xiuzhu smiled and said, "Most of what I know cannot be said, but it's okay to remind you."

"Okay, that's enough, thank you, brother." Yan Bugui handed over his hand and continued: "Then I won't waste your time. I'll go and finalize the meat ticket matter."

"Yeah! Brother Yan, walk slowly."

"Stay!"
