After get off work, Jia Dongsheng returned to the courtyard.
"Dongsheng, how's the matter with Shazhu going?"
As soon as he entered the front yard, Yan Fugui, who was busy washing the car, stopped Jia Dongsheng and asked about Sha Zhu.
"Don't worry, the punishment isn't severe. He'll just have to clean toilets for three months."
"That's fine. Otherwise, if I really get fired from the steel mill, I'll have to bear it."
Yan Fugui nodded. Although he was a bit stingy, he was a decent person and not a bad person.
"We need the help of the first and second uncles, otherwise Sha Zhu will be in real trouble this time." Jia Dongsheng said lightly.
"Ah, Old Yi and Old Liu helped?" Yan Fugui's face changed. As the third uncle in the courtyard, the first and second uncles both helped, but he didn't. Yan Fugui was a little worried. Wouldn't this affect his status?
Although the three great managers of the Siheyuan do not have power outside the courtyard, and even do not have that much power in the courtyard, many people in the courtyard are concerned about this little bit of power.
"Hey, Uncle San, don't think too much about it. You're not from the steel mill, so it's normal that you can't help."
Jia Dongsheng saw the change in Yan Fugui's expression and the worry in his eyes. He immediately understood what Yan Fugui was thinking and laughed in his heart, "A third uncle's position, do you still need to worry so much?"
"You don't understand, Dongsheng."
Yan Fugui's face turned grim. "Old Wang, who lives next door to me in the front yard, is always trying to undermine my prestige in the yard. He wants to replace me, and I won't give him a chance."
This was said with absolute certainty. If you didn't know, you might think it was something important. But it was just a position of a manager.
"Haha, don't worry, Uncle San, I will definitely support you."
Just as the two were talking, Xu Damao came in pushing a cart.
"Dongsheng, Third Uncle." This is the good thing about Xu Damao. He will definitely say hello when he meets someone in the yard. But if it was Sha Zhu, he might not do that.
"Da Mao."
Yan Fugui and Jia Dongsheng also responded. They thought Xu Damao would go home immediately after saying hello, but he stopped his bike and joined the chat.
"Dongsheng, I came back from showing a movie this morning and brought back a chicken and a duck. Did you go to my place to help me cook them?"
When saying this, Xu Damao's face showed a very proud expression. In this day and age, it was not easy to get both ducks and chickens, not to mention that he got them both at once.
"Da Mao, what good news is this? You actually want to eat both the duck and the chicken in one meal?"
Yan Fugui, who was still thinking in his mind, his eyes began to light up when he heard Xu Damao's words.
"Hey, I'm happy today, so of course I have to have a good meal."
Xu Damao burst into laughter. There was nothing he could do about it. He was really too happy today.
"Happy?"
"What's the happy news? Tell it to me, your third uncle." Yan Fugui continued to ask.
"Ha ha."
He smiled first. When Xu Damao was about to say something, Sha Zhu walked into the yard with a dusty face. His originally dim eyes bloomed with a light called hope the moment he saw Xu Damao.
There was nothing he could do. After feeling aggrieved all day and being ridiculed by Xu Damao, he was already furious.
Now he had no other thoughts but to beat Xu Damao up to vent his inner anger.
"Silly Zhu, haha, I'm so happy today, I'm going to treat you to a meal, do you want to come?"
The person who knows Sha Zhu best in the yard is neither Yi Zhonghai nor He Yushui, but Xu Damao.
Seeing the rage in Sha Zhu's eyes, Xu Damao knew clearly that Sha Zhu wanted to attack. Although he was tough-talking, he didn't want to be beaten, so before Sha Zhu exploded, he loudly called out and offered to treat him.
"You want to treat us?"
Sha Zhu stared at Xu Damao intently: "What do you want to treat me to?"
"Ducks and chickens."
As soon as he saw Sha Zhu's appearance, Xu Damao knew that for a chef, the appeal of a meal must be much higher than that of a fight, so he wanted to use a meal to avoid a fight.
Anyway, when he sees Sha Zhu and thinks that Sha Zhu has to clean the toilet for three months, he feels happy. It's just a meal, no big deal.
"Ducks and chickens?"
As Sha Zhu was muttering to himself, he was also thinking, should he beat Xu Damao now, or beat him after dinner?
Thinking about eating and drinking Xu Damao's food, and finally having to beat Xu Damao up, a smile appeared on Sha Zhu's lips.
"Okay, Xu Damao, you actually know how to treat me to a meal. Not bad, not bad."
Sha Zhu nodded and said, "I'm telling you, if it doesn't taste good, don't blame me for overturning your table."
"Third Uncle, Dongsheng, Xu Damao finally got his job back, are you guys going too?"
"Silly Zhu, do I need an invitation? I'm inviting Uncle Sanye and Dongsheng."
Xu Damao couldn't afford to give out the goods and let Sha Zhu play the good guy, so he quickly said, "Dongsheng, the ducks and chickens are in the backyard. Why don't we go and do it now?"
"No problem, I'll go home and be there soon."
When someone invites him to dinner, Jia Dongsheng certainly won’t be polite.
"I'm almost done wiping the car. I'll come over when I'm done." Yan Fugui also had a smile on his face, without any of his previous worries.
As long as he could gain an advantage, it would be the best medicine to cure all of Yan Fugui's emotions.
"Then it's settled."
After saying that, Xu Damao hurriedly pushed the cart towards the backyard. There was no other way. Sha Zhu was emotionally unstable at the moment, so he decided not to hang around in front of Sha Zhu.
When Jia Dongsheng was about to leave, Yan Fugui suddenly said, "Dongsheng, your car is so dirty, why don't you think about cleaning it and doing some maintenance?"
Yan Fugui looked at Jia Dongsheng's bicycle with a look of deep regret, as if to say, "If this were my bike, I would definitely clean it eight times a day."
"Haha, it's just a car. Why does it need to be treated with such care like you, Uncle Third?"
Jia Dongsheng chuckled and said jokingly, "Uncle, since you like cleaning cars so much, why don't you help me clean my car? Tomorrow is Sunday, and we have to go fishing."
"When I catch a fish tomorrow, I'll give you one to make soup with. How about that?"
Although Jia Dongsheng said this very generously, it is still possible to catch nothing when fishing. If he doesn't catch anything, Yan Fugui will definitely have wiped the car in vain.
However, after hearing his words, Yan Fugui acted very happy: "It's settled then, Dongsheng, I'll be waiting for your fish."
As he spoke, Yan Fugui immediately took action, took over Jia Dongsheng's car, and then started to clean it happily, which surprised Jia Dongsheng.
In fact, Jia Dongsheng didn't understand that after the last fishing trip, in Yan Fugui's mind, Jia Dongsheng would never become a member of the Air Force, and he would definitely not come back empty-handed from fishing.
Since you are sure to get a fish, then wiping the car is no big deal, just wipe it with your hands.
