"Hey, Lao He, Dongsheng, what's going on? Why did you buy so many dishes? Can you finish them all?"
As soon as I returned to the courtyard, the third door god, Yan Fugui, was strolling at the door, and I saw everything.
The shock in his eyes was about to show.
There was no other way. Although they were storing vegetables for the winter, the Yan family didn't store much. He mainly got some cabbage and radishes and pickled some pickles, which could save some money and also provide enough food for the whole winter.
"Old Yan, these belong to the Jia family. We brothers are just helping to pull them out."
He Daqing said with a smile: "How about you buy your winter vegetables? If not, I can help you carry them."
"No, no need, I'll wait at my house."
Yan Fugui was afraid that if He Daqing helped him to pull the groceries, it would cost him more money, so he immediately refused and shook his head: "There's no rush to buy my own food. Wait a couple of days until the vegetables are not so good, then go buy them. It will be much cheaper."
"Just buckle it."
Knowing Yan Fugui's character, He Daqing knew from his expression that Yan Fugui was a mean-spirited person who judged others by their own standards. He couldn't help but laugh and scold him, "We're all neighbors, and I can still earn money from you. Don't worry, if you need a car, just let me know. I won't charge you."
"No money, that's a good relationship."
When he heard it was free, Yan Fugui was happy: "Then wait a couple of days and take me to the vegetable market to have a look."
While the two were greeting each other, Jia Dongsheng also said hello, and then without saying much, he and Cai Quanwu pushed the car into the yard.
Because it was Sunday, there were quite a few neighbors in the yard. Seeing that the three tricycles were all loaded with goods, they all looked at them with envy.
But he was just envious and didn't say much. After all, the Jia family has two working parents, and there is Jia Dongsheng who earns more than 50 yuan a month.
If their family could earn that much every month, they would dare to buy three trucks of winter vegetables.
Unfortunately, the classification of worker grades was only started in 1958, and most workers are only at the first, second, or third grades. The monthly salary for most people is more than 30 yuan, and each family only has one such employee.
It is impossible for them to spend money as lavishly as the Jia family.
When he arrived at the Intermediate Court, Jia Dongsheng saw a scene that frightened him a little.
What exactly happened?
Sha Zhu and Xu Damao, the two enemies, were actually chatting and laughing. Isn’t it strange? Isn’t it shocking?
In the play, the two people fought from the 1960s to the 1990s. Was there ever a time when they had a chat and laughed?
Jia Dongsheng could hardly remember it, as if it had never happened even once.
Whenever the two meet, they will definitely quarrel with each other. Even if Sha Zhu can't defeat Xu Damao, he will start fighting.
Then Xu Damao had to run, otherwise Sha Zhu would have to give him artificial respiration.
So, for Jia Dongsheng, who thought he knew the two of them quite well, seeing them chatting and laughing was really a bit scary!
Either Xu Damao was planning to do something bad, or Sha Zhu was planning to play a trick on Xu Damao. This scene was too horrifying.
In fact, at this moment, Xu Damao was also a little nervous.
He spent this week traveling around the countryside, showing movies in one commune after another. This work attitude made the leaders of the Propaganda Department very satisfied with him.
He was promised a promotion next year more than once.
The more he said this, the more motivated Xu Damao became, and the more diligently he went to the countryside to show movies.
Of course, this has a lot to do with the fact that the young widow in the countryside is light and delicate.
Every night there are always people who want to get into his bed and warm it for him. What a pity, is Xu Damao so easy to conquer?
It was only captured five times in a week.
That's right, he slept outside for six days in a week. The reason why he was only conquered for five days was that he couldn't stand up on the sixth day and he had no health pills left. In a word, he could only look at Mu'er and sigh, but there was nothing he could do.
If not, Xu Damao would not have planned to come back.
There was no other way. When he was in the countryside, the commune provided him with food, shelter, and warm beds, which made him reluctant to leave.
When he came back, he brought back a lot of good things in big and small bags. Although it was a year of disaster, for Xu Damao who went to the countryside, it was no different from usual.
Although ordinary families lived a hard life, the commune team still had enough food and drink. As long as Xu Damao could go to the countryside twice more and show more movies, he would be as carefree as he could be.
On the way back to the city, Xu Damao had already made up his mind that the next time he went to the countryside, he would bring a few health pills with him when he was away for a few days. Otherwise, he would have to sigh at the wood ear again, which would be too cruel.
And there are things that are even more cruel than this.
Just the resentful look the young widow gave him made Xu Damao's heart ache, so much so.
Alas, it’s all tears if I talk too much.
What made him shudder was that as soon as he returned to the courtyard, Sha Zhu actually ran over and shouted that he wanted to treat him to a drink.
This is absolutely the first time in history!
He felt that Sha Zhu must have a conspiracy and was definitely trying to trick him, but Xu Damao had just returned and didn't know what he had done to offend Sha Zhu.
That's why he was here chatting and laughing with Sha Zhu, testing the waters here and there. After a while, they were having a good chat, but Sha Zhu's conspiracy was still not clear.
It was precisely because Sha Zhu avoided the topic that Xu Damao felt even more unsure and could only continue to pretend to be nice to Sha Zhu.
This is what Jia Dongsheng saw after entering the hospital.
"Shazhu, Damao, what are you talking about?" Jia Dongsheng parked the car and walked over to ask.
"Just chatting. It's time to rest now, and there's really nothing to do. It's so boring."
Sha Zhu's casual response almost frightened Xu Damao to jump up. He said, how could Sha Zhu have the leisure to chat with him.
It turned out that he had nothing to do and was planning to cheat him.
That’s right, he definitely wanted to trick him.
Xu Damao's eyes were already flashing with wisdom. He slowly moved his feet backward, ready to run away immediately if anything went wrong.
From childhood to adulthood, he has never been able to beat Sha Zhu, and has developed the ability to escape. This is not cowardice, but self-awareness.
If you rush forward even though you know you can't win, that is either stupid or foolish.
"Since you are so free, give me some work to do."
Jia Dongsheng didn't expect that these two guys would be sitting here doing nothing. In that case, of course he had to find them something to do.
When Xu Damao encounters work normally, he will try to avoid it if possible. He is not a person who is willing to work.
But this time he was very positive.
It's good to work. Working can keep me away from Sha Zhu and prevent him from beating the kids on rainy days. It's better to be idle than to do nothing.
"Dongsheng, leave all the work to me."
Xu Damao stretched out his arms and rolled up his sleeves, looking very enthusiastic about the work.
"Well, since you two have nothing to do, help me move the winter vegetables I just bought to the cellar."
Jia Dongsheng pointed at the radishes and cabbages in the car and said this. Before he finished speaking, he saw a figure rushing out.
The figure was Xu Damao.
