Siheyuan: My wife is Xu Huizhen

Chapter 141 The old-hearted Yi Zhonghai

He Yuzhu suddenly had a headache. Since that day, he had had an unclear relationship with Chen Xueru. In order to appease her, he had to get together with her.

Chen Xueru is like brown candy, once it sticks to it, it can't be shaken off. She surrounds He Yuzhu with tenderness, making him unable to stop and has no choice but to sink in.

He Yuzhu thought of Xu Zhaodi every time and wished she would die. If she and Xu Wood hadn't drunkenly drank, he would not have fallen into Chen Xueru's hands.

"Are you kidding? If you get pregnant, how will you explain it then?"

"I don't care, I just want to give you a son. At worst, he will take my surname Chen."

"But others will talk about you behind your back."

"I can't hear them, so let them say whatever they want."

He Yuzhu's headache became even worse. Chen Xueru was too unreasonable. She really couldn't reason with a beautiful girl.

He Yuzhu took a deep breath and thought that even if he cultivated thousands of times, as long as he did not sow the seeds, Chen Xueru would not be able to get pregnant.

Why should I argue with her now? It’s not up to you to decide whether you can get pregnant or when you will get pregnant?

Thinking of this, He Yuzhu immediately stopped being angry and said, "Okay, I'll just give you a son."

Chen Xueru suddenly became happy. He Yuzhu rarely came over these days, and he had been waiting impatiently for a long time. Finally, it came to his door. He stepped forward and unbuttoned He Yuzhu's belt with a smile.

"Quickly, let me have the baby."

He Yuzhu said helplessly: "I can't help you with this kind of thing."

"Hmph, then you should come to see me more often. If you haven't come to see me for so long, my fields will be deserted."

He Yuzhu could only promise to try his best to check in and make Chen Xueru's belly bulge as soon as possible.

Chen Xueru is just an episode in life. He Yuzhu's recent life revolves around Xu Huizhen, but he has to take good care of his wife and also thinks about the future baby. He also made prams, walkers, and various other things out of wood. wooden toys.

Although these toys are very complicated, in the hands of top-notch carpenters, they are very simple things and can be made effortlessly.

When the day came, Xu Damao's mother said, "Da Mao, go to Yi Zhonghai and ask for thirty yuan."

"I won't go. We had a fight two days ago."

Yi Zhonghai thought about it and realized that the possibility of Xu Damao and his son doing bad things was not small. When they happened to meet him, he asked the White Widow if Xu Damao had brought her here.

Of course Xu Damao refused to admit it. He also said that the White Widow asked He Daqing to settle the accounts, but He Daqing did not ask Xu Damao to question him. His management of Yi Zhonghai was too lenient. What does it have to do with Yi Zhonghai?

Yi Zhonghai was so angry that the corners of his mouth twitched. There really was no relationship on the surface.

But Yi Zhonghai was very unhappy.

As expected, the two quarreled. Yi Zhonghai wanted to reprimand him in the name of justice, but Xu Damao refused, and the two almost started fighting.

Xu's mother turned around and said, "Zhao Di, go and ask for it."

"I'm not going. They just found a job for me, and I'm still an apprentice. I don't want him to hate me."

"Okay, none of you are obedient, are you?"

The two children had been disobedient for a long time. Xu's mother simply made dinner. After Xu Damao took his sisters to watch a movie, he got up and asked Yi Zhonghai for money.

As soon as I got up, there was a knock on the door, "Who is it?"

"It's me." Yi Zhonghai's voice came from outside.

Xu's mother, Chu Sumei, opened the door and asked Yi Zhonghai to sit down.

Yi Zhonghai looked around and saw no one else from the Xu family, so he asked, "Where are Damao and the others?"

Chu Sumei poured a cup of hot tea, placed it in front of Yi Zhonghai and said, "We've all gone to watch a movie. Brother Yi, please have some tea."

Then sit down and stay with me.

Yi Zhonghai suddenly became angry. Xu Damao and Xu Zhaodi were working. Although they were both apprentices, their combined wages were more than 30 yuan.

In addition to the 30 yuan given by myself, the four members of the Xu family have an income of more than 60 yuan. This living standard is second only to Shazhu's family in the courtyard.

Looking at the plump Chu Sumei in front of him, Yi Zhonghai couldn't help but feel very excited. This Chu Sumei got married early and is only thirty-six or seventeen years old now, which is the most exciting age.

Chu Sumei is even better than her wife and the White Widow. Yi Zhonghai didn't think much about it before. Starting from this month, he will give the Xu family 30 yuan every month, so Yi Zhonghai can't help but think about it.

Chu Sumei chatted with her for a few words. At first, she thought Yi Zhonghai would come up with the money soon, but after talking for a long time, Yi Zhonghai made no move.

I couldn't help but ask: "Brother Yi, are you here today?"

Only then did Yi Zhonghai realize that he had been in a trance and was actually thinking about occupying Xu Wood's wife. He quickly said, "I'm here to give you living expenses."

As he spoke, he took out thirty yuan from his pocket. Looking at the money, he couldn't help but feel heartbroken. This was half of his salary, and he had to give it to someone else's wife.

Chu Sumei reached out to take it, but Yi Zhonghai still didn't want to give it. The two of them quickly held their hands together, like an electric shock, making both of them blush.

Yi Zhonghai quickly threw down thirty yuan and hurried out of the house. He let out a long breath and felt ashamed of his despicable thoughts just now.

But when I turned around and thought, I had been so unlucky during this period, and it was all Xu Wood's fault.

It was obvious that he was not the one who leaked the news to Cheng Dayuan, but Xu Wood believed that he was the one who did it. He knocked on the sap, robbed things, and extorted a lot of money.

I had never thought about taking the initiative to retaliate against Xu Wood before. Suddenly, the idea came to me, whether to get Xu Wood's wife and then bully her severely. This would be the greatest revenge on Xu Wood.

Chu Sumei in the room was also a little distracted. Yi Zhonghai, who usually looked sanctimonious, turned out to take the opportunity to eat other people's tofu.

I was so confused for a moment that I didn't know what to do.

After the incident between Xu Wood and the little widow of Tayuan Village broke out, Chu Sumei got angry and had several fights with Xu Wood. Since then, the two have not lived as a couple.

Having been touched by Yi Zhonghai just now, Chu Sumei didn't feel angry in her heart, but felt a vague pleasure of revenge.

But Yi Zhonghai actually ran away and couldn't help but scolded: "You really have a lustful heart but no lustful courage."

It's just that living in a courtyard house, with neighbors on both sides, there are many people, and there is no chance for mischief.

During this period of time, Yi Zhonghai had been living in dire straits. His wife at home was sarcastic and sarcastic every day, and the eyes cast by his neighbors also contained different emotions.

Everyone is waiting for the day when Yi Zhonghai and his wife will break out and whether they will get divorced. They are all speculating that the white widow has given birth to two sons for Yi Zhonghai and whether the extramarital affair can be restored.

It's a pity that the scene I wanted to see has never been seen. Yi Zhonghai's family has always been peaceful.

"Although Yi Zhonghai is embarrassed, I still feel uncomfortable if I can't see them getting divorced."

Xu Damao said angrily.

Should we come up with another idea and target Yi Zhonghai again?

Xu Damao thought about it in the office. Even though he brought Yi Zhonghai's illegitimate son back to the courtyard, it didn't hit Yi Zhonghai. How else could he cure Yi Zhonghai?

I couldn't think of it for a moment, and Xu Damao was worried to death. Suddenly the door to the room was pushed open and a coworker walked in.

Xu Damao asked: "Zheng Xu, is there something wrong?"

Zheng Xu is not from the Publicity Department, but an employee of the Logistics Department, and he would not normally go to the Publicity Department like this.

Zheng Xu closed the door and asked in a low voice: "I want to ask you, do you have enough white flour at home? Is there any leftover?"

"What do you mean?" Xu Damao didn't understand yet.

Zheng Xu said: "Isn't this a restriction on buying flour?"

"Yeah, what's wrong?" Xu Damao asked.

Zheng Xu said: "Some people here don't have enough flour to eat, but we workers have a quota of 18 kilograms of flour a month, and many people can't finish it."

After saying this, Xu Damao knew.

Ordinary residents in cities and towns are entitled to a quota of 8 kilograms of flour per month, and employees in steel rolling mills are entitled to a monthly rent quota of 18 kilograms of flour.

If you are a dual-income family, you really won’t be able to finish it all.

The staple food of ordinary people is only cornmeal, while rice and white flour are luxury goods. Even employees are reluctant to eat white flour.

Xu Damao asked: "You mean someone sells this amount of flour?"

"Yeah, I'll give you a dime per pound." Zheng Xu asked, "Do you want to sell your quota?"

"This"

I have a family of four, and my sister and I now have two jobs. Although we are both apprentices, we are all required to have 18 kilograms of flour.

A family of four has an allowance of 52 kilograms of flour a month, which is really too much to eat.

But Xu Damao couldn't make up his mind whether to keep the flour or sell it.

"Don't worry about it. Just tell me when you think about it. I want it for a long time."

Xu Damao pulled Zheng Xu who was about to leave and asked, "Are there many people doing this?"

"It's a lot. Many apprentices have sold their credits and converted them into money."

After liberation, we experienced a major inflation. Many ordinary residents did not have cash in their hands. They all lived on the moonlight, and many people had to borrow money to survive.

"Let me think about it."

In fact, Xu Damao is not short of money. Now a grading system has been implemented. Apprenticeships are 17 yuan a month. Xu Damao and Xu Zhaodi are both apprentices. Plus Yi Zhonghai gives 30 yuan for living expenses. This is better than the living expenses of many formal workers. .

Zheng Xu also asked casually, if it succeeds, he can get a commission, but if it fails, it is normal.

Xu Damao walked back after get off work and saw Jia Dongxu holding Zheng Xu in front of him and discussing something. Xu Damao walked a few steps and then saw Jia Dongxu taking out several flour purchase books and handing them to Zheng Xu.

Zheng Xu took out some money, counted a few, and handed it to Jia Dongxu.

Xu Damao was surprised that Jia Dongxu did not buy one or two. He was also a dealer and wanted to use this to make profits.

He Yuzhu also welcomed a guest, Sun Laowu, who was a gangster in this area. He usually came and went with street gangsters, and also contacted some tomb robbers. He also had a stall in Yandai Xiejie, and usually sold some authentic and fake items. The two of them had dealt with fake antiques many times.

The man invited him to come in, sit down, and serve tea: "Brother Fifth, why do you have time to see me today?"

Sun Laowu took a sip of tea, praised the tea, and then said:

“Brother He, what’s your quota of flour?”

"You weigh one hundred pounds a day, what's wrong?"

Sun Laowu asked: "Is there any left?"

He Yuzhu said worriedly: "This is not enough. If you give me another hundred catties, I can sell them all."

Food stamps are not used yet. When you buy the noodles sold in these restaurants, you only need to pay with money without using tickets. It is the same as the noodles sold in grain stores. Prices less than one kilogram are not included in the flour purchase certificate.

The current policy is very rough and has too many loopholes.

When He Yuzhu said this, Sun Laowu smiled bitterly and said, "I thought you had some leftover flour. Someone is collecting it recently. I want to make some pocket money."

"Is anyone collecting flour?"

Sun Laowu explained it, and He Yuzhu now understood that there were many old people and young people who had a lot of money and no jobs at all. At the moment, it was just a one-size-fits-all approach, and each person's flour quota was only 8 kilograms.

This group of people went around looking for people to buy flour, which gave rise to a new business. Some people used other people's grain books to buy flour, then returned the grain books later, or simply collected the flour at a high price.

An extra 5 cents is added to each pound, and the middleman also gets a commission of cents. In other words, if you want to buy an extra pound of flour now, you need to add cents more.

You must know that the previous selling price of flour was only about 1 cents, which is almost double the price.

However, He Yuzhu does not intend to sell the flour in his hands now. From now on, there will be no channels to buy flour in large quantities. It is better to save the flour until 58 years later, when the price of a pound of flour is as high as more than one yuan, so that he can make a profit. Take huge profits.

Sun Laowu explained, and then said: "I thought you could have some credit left."

He Yuzhu thought about it and said, "I won't sell it to you, but you can sell it to me!"

Although the food sold now is high-priced, there will be a shortage of food in the next few decades, and it was not until the 90s that the food stamp system was completely abolished.

From now on, if you want to buy flour, you can only buy it at a high price. You can still buy some while you can.

Sun Laowu was surprised. He Yuzhu's shop had a quota of 100 kilograms a day. Plus his own, there was no shortage at all. He didn't expect to want to buy flour.

"Okay, I'll bring it to you later."

He Yuzhu said: "I'm sorry to trouble you."

After discussing some details and sending Sun Laowu away, the next day, he delivered a bag of flour from the back door.

Several days later, He Yuzhu received the news and was notified to go to the neighborhood committee for a meeting.

He Yuzhu came to the courtyard of the neighborhood committee. The people meeting here were all people who were doing business nearby and were related to food.

Most of them were acquaintances. He Yuzhu was now sure that this meeting was related to food. It seemed that the reselling of flour had alarmed the superiors.

This time the response was quite fast. In just a few days, people from these restaurant snack stalls were summoned for a meeting.

Not long after waiting, several leaders of the neighborhood committee came out. Although Tian Zao was young, he was already the director of the neighborhood committee, and he was assisted by several aunts.

Tian Zao said: "We are invited to come this time because there is something that needs to be reported. Recently, a group of saboteurs have been buying and selling flour. Many people must have seen it. The leaders of the Ministry of Food were shocked and issued the latest notice. All sales were Flour food vendors and restaurants are not allowed to sell the quota of flour without permission.”
