at the same time.
Siheyuan.
It was lunchtime, the sun was shining brightly, and the yard was suddenly filled with the aroma of various foods.
Jia Dongxu's home.
Today is a good day. Jia Dongxu received his first-level fitter salary, which is 34 yuan, 7 yuan higher than his salary as a fitter apprentice.
Seven dollars is almost enough for his food for two months!
This is all thanks to Yi Zhonghai’s good teaching.
Therefore.
The Jia family invited Yi Zhonghai to have lunch at noon. Firstly, it was to have lunch, but secondly, they had other matters they wanted Yi Zhonghai to address.
Qin Huairu is pregnant and is about to give birth next year.
But the Jia family only has one house so far, and Jia Zhang has long had her eyes on Liu Xiaojun's house.
In addition, Liu Xiaojun was rewarded with three rooms and a small courtyard for his meritorious service in catching spies.
Anyway, Liu Xiaojun's family has many houses, and they are just sitting there anyway. It would be better to let him move in and take care of the house for him.
Thinking this way, Liu Xiaojun is the winner. If he talks to Liu Xiaojun about this matter, he might agree.
As Jia Zhang thought about it, she felt very happy, as if she was already in Liu Xiaojun's three-room courtyard.
It was Yi Zhonghai who interrupted her again: "Aunt Jia, what are you thinking about, laughing like that?"
Could it be that this guy was beaten stupid by Liu Xiaojun?
Aunt Jia finally came back to her senses and saw that she was still in her crowded little room. The smile on her face disappeared immediately.
"I'm not thinking about anything. You and Dongxu have a drink first." Aunt Jia smiled at Yi Zhonghai attentively.
Yi Zhonghai looked at her and couldn't help but shudder when he thought of the scene when she threw herself into the arms of the second uncle.
Could it be that Jia Zhang has taken a fancy to him? This is unacceptable!
But seeing that she did not take any further action, Yi Zhonghai continued to drink with peace of mind.
This time we went to Niulanshan.
A pitch-black dining table, its original color can no longer be seen after being used for so long.
A small plate of peanuts, a bowl of steamed buns made of two grams of flour, and a bowl of pickled vegetables and rolled tofu.
This two-pronged flour is made by fermenting corn flour mixed with white flour. It can be used to make steamed buns, noodles, pancakes, etc.
These days, eating only white flour can make you go bankrupt!
Most people eat it with a mixture of cornmeal and white flour, which is a common practice.
However, the Jia family was relatively poor, and even this two-pound noodles was considered a decent food that they could afford. They would not even eat it when they were not entertaining guests.
Seeing the two of them drinking, Jia Zhang secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
She had already informed Jia Dongxu in advance. No matter what, she had to deal with Lao Yi today and let Lao Yi give them some advice on where to find a house for the Jia family.
Since Old Yi wants Dongxu to take care of him in his old age, it is only natural to give Dongxu a whole room!
We had finished half of the wine and almost finished the food.
Let’s get to the point.
Jia Dongxu looked at Yi Zhonghai pitifully and said:
"Uncle, you know what my family situation is like. There are three of us at home, and with the baby in my belly, that makes four. We all depend on me for support. Life is tough!"
"Plus, Huairu is about to give birth, so we can't have a family of four sleeping in one bed."
"Can you see if there's any way you can get a room from Liu Xiaojun?"
When Yi Zhonghai heard this, he sobered up a lot.
His eyes were deep. He had chosen Jia Dongxu to be his old-age caregiver because he saw that Jia Dongxu's family was poor and easy to manipulate.
He has been helping the Jia family. He knows their situation and has been paying close attention to the house issue.
After a moment's hesitation, he said, "In our yard, Liu Xiaojun's family has the most houses, but why can't they let you live there for no reason?!"
Before Jia Dongxu could speak, Jia Zhang immediately retorted.
"Old Yi, how can we live here for no reason? His big yard is empty anyway, so what's wrong with me living here? Aren't I still guarding the gate for him?!"
Yi Zhonghai: ???
They may not even let you stay in an ordinary room!
Do you still want to live in someone else's big house with a yard?
Yi Zhonghai knew that Liu Xiaojun and Aunt Jia had quarreled in the yard many times and their relationship was not good.
In this case, Liu Xiaojun would definitely not give the house to Jia Zhang for free.
But it’s hard to say about renting a house. You have to pay for renting a house. After all, who can resist money?
If Jia Dongxu and Qin Huairu chose to rent one of his three rooms and pay the rent on time every month, Liu Xiaojun might agree.
By then, you can rent it and then slowly start to plan...
But Jia Zhang is too greedy, so she still needs to be punished.
Yi Zhonghai: "Aunt Jia, if someone wants to live in your house for free, will you let them live there?"
Jia Zhang immediately retorted, "Of course not. Why should I let others live in my own house?"
Yi Zhonghai: "That's it, Liu Xiaojun's house won't be given to you for free."
"However, if I pay him rent, he might agree. Dongxu's salary just happened to increase, so he can use it to rent a house."
Jia Dongxu also felt that his mother's initial plan was inappropriate, but he was a mama's boy and kept it to himself and didn't dare to refute it.
But now after hearing what Yi Zhonghai said, he nodded in agreement.
Jia Zhang looked at Jia Dongxu, "Useless thing, are you satisfied with this?"
The result was decided within a meal.
When Liu Xiaojun came back, the uncle was ready to take a group of people from the Jia family to visit the house and inquire about renting a house.
Liu Xiaojun's side.
Winter is the peak season for hotpot, and it was still a little early when the two came in, but as they ate, the seats around them were filled up.
