Siheyuan: Xu Damao corrects his evil ways

Chapter 150 150, Food Problem

The deaf old lady's words were sarcastic, but her actions were honest. She didn't care that the bun in front of her had been chewed, so she grabbed it and took a bite.

While he was finding fault with the Yan family's food, he was eating more happily than anyone else. The eldest children of the Yan family were fine, but the youngest Yan Jiedi was so frightened that she burst into tears.

Without him, the deaf old lady ate the one-finger-long fish that Yan Bugui prepared for her.

Yang Ruihua hugged the little girl into his arms and spread out the staple food on the table for several children to carry inside.

In fact, the deaf old lady originally cooked her own food. Since she gave Li Yun a gold gadget last time, the food provided by the Yi family for her has been better for a while. Not only was there meat every meal, but hot dishes and hot rice were provided every day, which made the deaf old lady directly put away all the preparations for cooking at home.

All the food and other supplies were moved to the Yi family, and she wouldn't need them anyway.

Logically speaking, after being rejected at Lai Wu's house today, Li Yun was angered by her and ran away. If the deaf old lady wants to prepare, she can also make some simple food to fill her stomach.

But first, they were counting on Li Yun to come back, but they never thought that the hospital also had a canteen, and the Yi family had money and tickets, so they couldn't afford to come back to serve her.

The second thing is that it is difficult to go from luxury to frugality, and I am too lazy to do it.

Otherwise, it would be impossible to abandon the restraint of the ancestors of the courtyard and become a starving ghost to support life.

Furthermore, she also understands the temperament of the Yan family and knows that she must not be polite to the Yan family. Otherwise, let alone eat dry food, you won’t even be able to drink from the northwest wind in front of Yan’s house.

The food prepared by the Yan family is not delicious, but it is still enough to fill the stomach.

The deaf old lady burped and saw Yan Bugui and his wife looking at her angrily.

The deaf old lady said disdainfully: "Yan family members, don't look down on my old lady. Today, old lady, I really don't want to eat your food for free."

Yan Bugui looked at the deaf old lady with suspicious eyes.

The deaf old lady did not make any fuss about this matter, but directly said that the technical department of the steel rolling mill needed translation. And it directly pointed out the fact that Yan Jiecheng could go.

It's just that the scene that the deaf old lady imagined, where the whole Yan family thanked her, did not appear.

Yan Bugui just twitched his face and said with a half-smiling look: "Old lady, when you have eaten and drank enough, go back and rest! I won't send you off."

The deaf old lady was stunned. She had thought about the Yan family being excited or the Yan family not believing it, but she had never thought about Yan Bugui's reaction.

According to common sense, when Yan Bugui encountered such a thing, he did make a mistake and did not let it go.

But that also depends on the person!
  Xu Damao, can the neighbors in the courtyard afford that?
  Everything is accumulated. We will not hate someone for a lifetime just because of a small thing.

You won't thank someone for a lifetime just because of a small thing.

But if the little things accumulate too much, the good impression of a person and the fear of a person will slowly be engraved in the bones.

So after hearing that it was related to Xu Damao, Yan Bugui basically had no hope.

Yang Ruihua exclaimed: "The boss..."

Yan Bugui sneered: "Our Yan family is not someone else's gun."

Yan Bugui stared at the deaf old lady again and said: "Old lady, my Yan family entered the yard early. I used to see our neighbors and have the respect of Lao Yi, so my Yan family didn't say anything."

Yan Bugui didn't say any more, but his meaning was clear, that is, not to provoke each other.

The deaf old lady didn't mind Yan Bugui's threat. Just like the Yan family knew what privacy she had, the deaf old lady also knew some things about the Yan family. Big brother, don’t laugh at the second brother, they are both the ones with dirty butts.

The deaf old lady smiled and said: "No matter how bad my old lady is, I won't come here to lie just for a nest. Don't say anything to me, old Yan Yan. We are all neighbors in the same courtyard. Who doesn't know who is who? What do you want to tell others? Old Xubi?"

This was a bit hurtful to say, but the deaf old lady was right in saying it. Compared to Yan Bugui who stands at the door every day calculating this and that. The Xu family has a good reputation, at least Xu's father and Xu's mother have never plotted anything in the yard.

Furthermore, the deaf old lady knew that her plan failed this time, so she would not have the chance to come to Yan's house for dinner next time.

In fact, this kind of thing cannot be considered a calculation.

Not to mention Xu Damao's side, there are probably more related households in the Technical Department and Section Chief Hu's side.

It doesn't matter how many people can actually do things.

The most important thing about Xu Damao's idea was not to find someone to translate the acceleration time, but to divide the responsibilities that were originally all technical departments among the workshop workers and students.

The translation is done by students, the operation is done by workers, and the technical department is just a responsibility with weak supervision.

Of course, if there is credit, that is different.

This is the case with everything in the world. The meaning of not being ashamed to ask does not mean that the superior does not know the answer, but that the superior does not want the answer to come out of his mouth.

The success is due to the superior's humility in accepting advice. If it fails, the person who gives the answer below is the scapegoat.

Yan Bugui knew clearly that even if what the deaf old lady said was true, the Yan family would have no room for maneuver. This is not a potato or a piece of ginger that you expect others to give you.

If the deaf old lady was saying that Xu Damao had a job quota in the steel rolling mill, then Yan Bugui would beg to give it a try even if he was rolling around on Xu Damao's thigh.

Yan Bugui smiled more kindly and said to the deaf old lady: "I just know how much I weigh, so I know that there are some things that my Yan family can't calculate. Old lady, please!"

Yang Ruihua beside him couldn't help but said: "The boss."

Yan Bugui waved his hand to tell Yang Ruihua to shut up. After the deaf old lady left, he bolted the door. Sitting at the table, his cold eyes came out of his glasses.

Yang Ruihua asked again: "Head of the family, how about letting the boss try it?"

Yan Bugui snorted coldly and said: "How to try? Do you want to work now? Why do you want Xie Cheng to go? Can you guarantee that you will get in?"

Yan Bugui's four consecutive questions directly extinguished the small fire in Yang Ruihua's heart. Of course, there was also Yan Jiecheng who was eavesdropping in the back room.

Yan Bugui glanced at the direction of the back room and explained in detail: "Let's not talk about whether it is possible to ask Xu Damao for an introduction. Let's just say that Xu Damao is willing to introduce it. Now that the job is completed, will the original job be lost? Over there at the steel rolling mill. If you fail to do so, you will be ruining your job."

After saying that, he also nuzzled at Yang Ruihua, meaning that it was a matter of cooperating with the acting.

Yang Ruihua, who has been married to Yan Bugui for many years, understood immediately and said: "That's not possible. It's not easy to find a stable job. You can't throw away the steamed buns in your hand for something you can't touch. Sorry. This old lady, isn’t she trying to trick our family? She clearly knows that our family has been having conflicts with Damao’s family recently.”

Yan Bugui was very satisfied with his wife's reaction and said with a smile: "You understand, right? This is the old woman deliberately stirring up trouble. I wish I could go to Xu Damao to make trouble. It's better to make this uncle like me continue to make trouble."

……

After the deaf old lady was sent away from Yan's house by Yan Bugui, on the way back to the house, she took another look at the dark Yi Zhonghai family and sighed in her heart ~ It seems that she is going to the hospital to see Yi Zhonghai tomorrow.

In fact, it stands to reason that the development of courtyard houses should be based on mutual support.

If we help each other like each other, the results may be similar, but there won't be so much dissatisfaction.

But I don’t know who started, and the fuss turned into plotting against each other.

In the current hospital, the Yi family's food was quite good today. The stewed pig's trotters were crispy and rotten, and the Yi Zhonghai couple's mouths were filled with oil.

Li Yun bought it and directly added a few dollars to have it processed by the hospital cafeteria.

In the eyes of the neighbors in the courtyard, the Yi family has always been reluctant to eat or drink.

In this regard, Yi Zhonghai's explanation to the outside world is that Li Yun is in poor health and needs to take medicine all year round. Then there is the issue of saving money for retirement.

This statement is either correct or incorrect.

The reason why he is right is that Yi Zhonghai's statement is mainstream these days, that is, suffer a little when you are young and save some money to defend yourself when you are old.

This is true whether you have a job or not.

No one is sure whether it is true that there will be a retirement salary after retirement.

But it would be a bit pretentious to say that Yi Zhonghai, with a salary of hundreds, lives the same life as his neighbors in the hospital.

I am reluctant to buy big things for my family, for fear of being borrowed.

I am reluctant to eat delicious food in front of others, for fear that others will miss me.

But those who sneak around in private naturally have their own ways of doing things.

Like today, Li Yun took the opportunity to spend time with Yi Zhonghai in the hospital.

Yi Zhonghai didn't even ask the deaf old lady how she planned her meal today, but discussed with Li Yun what to do in the future.

The current situation of the Yi family is very bad. Two or three schemes have failed in succession, and Yi Zhonghai's reputation is now bad in the streets.

Yi Zhonghai ate and drank enough and let Li Yun wipe his face. When Li Yun was about to go out and wipe the towel, Yi Zhonghai said, "Daughter-in-law, what did the old lady say?"

Li Yun shook his head and said with a calm expression: "She pretended to be deaf and dumb to me, just because she didn't say anything about He Daqing."

There was a hint of anger on Yi Zhonghai's face, and he said in a low voice: "If we are not a family, we can never be of the same mind. I have been bullied like this, and she still wants to keep those secrets and get into the coffin?"

Li Yun felt somewhat calm about this matter and said: "If it were me, I wouldn't say anything. She really helped our family and drove the He family out of the yard. What use does she have to our husband and wife? She will definitely be afraid. We won't care about her anymore."

Yi Zhonghai moved his mouth, probably trying to explain something. For example, he could swear to provide for the old lady until her death, but remembering that they were the only two people in the ward now, there was no need to say some empty words.

Li Yun seemed to have remembered something, and chuckled: "I don't know whose house the old guy will be eating at today? Whose house will he offend? I really thought the whole yard still belongs to her house."
