After Ye Zhiqiu took the bicycle, he said a few words and rode towards the Second Textile Factory.
This matter was very simple. Ye Zhiqiu just handed out a few cigarettes and explained the matter, and people knew it was Lao Qian!
Since Uncle Qian's family had a fixed amount of food, he had some money left over from his salary, and he would occasionally buy a pack of not-so-bad cigarettes, which he would often distribute to the people guarding this area, so everyone naturally became familiar with each other.
After successfully completing the task, Ye Zhiqiu rode towards the dormitory building of the brewery. The dormitory building was one kilometer away from the brewery. In fact, the dormitory buildings of many factories were located here!
Because the heating for the dormitory buildings at that time was not provided by the heating company, but by the major factories, each of which built its own boiler for heating.
The brewery was not big enough, so the dormitory building had to be built outside.
If those factories have enough space, they can just build dormitories inside the factory area, which makes commuting very convenient!
When Ye Zhiqiu arrived at the dormitory building, there were two more bottles of wine and a pound of pork belly in the basket.
In fact, at Chen Yimin's level, he could only receive a monthly subsidy of two kilograms of meat, one kilogram of sugar, and two kilograms of eggs, that's all.
Of course, it was definitely easier for them to get food than for ordinary people. For example, in the Feng family's case, it was Feng Yuanzheng who was well-paid, not the mother and daughter.
Therefore, it is difficult for them to get food. Apart from some food sent by relatives and friends, it is not an easy task for them to go out and buy supplies.
This place is different from the factory. There is only a gatekeeper sitting inside. Ye Zhiqiu handed him a cigarette first, then asked with a smile: "Uncle, I am Chen Yimin's nephew, this is my ID.
I just got out of the army and don't know where they live. Please give me some directions so I don't have to wander around like a headless chicken."
The doorman took the certificate, looked at it, and then asked with a smile, "Then I'll ask you some questions. If you can answer them, I'll trust you. What's Director Chen's father's name? What does his father like to do? What did his father do in the past?"
Ye Zhiqiu almost laughed out loud at the uncle's words, but he suppressed his laughter and replied, "Uncle, listen carefully. My master's name is Chen Renfu, and he loves fishing. I call him master, so do I need to tell him what he used to do?"
"Row 2, Building 1, Floor 203, Goodbye!"
"Okay! Thank you, sir!"
Ye Zhiqiu pushed his bicycle and found Building 1 in Row 2. He locked the bicycle and went upstairs carrying the wine and meat.
Not long after the knock on the door, Sun Lai Di's voice was heard.
"Here, who is it?"
The door opened with a click, and Ye Zhiqiu shouted with a smile, "Master's Wife, long time no see!"
Sun Lai Di was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said happily: "Hey, Xiao Ye, when did you come back? Come in, come in!"
"Well, I just got back the night before last, and I was running around a bit yesterday, so I couldn't come over to see you today."
Ye Zhiqiu entered the house, and Sun Laidi closed the door and pulled him to the living room, shouting towards the corridor: "Dad, Mom, come out quickly, look who's here!"
Pushing Ye Zhiqiu to sit down, he felt a little helpless as he hadn't put his things away yet!
There is no other way but to leave the things on the table. Although it doesn’t look very nice, it’s not convenient to move around.
Sun Lai Di had just made tea when Chen Renfu and his wife came out. Ye Zhiqiu quickly stood up and greeted them, "Master, Madam, your disciple just returned to the city the night before yesterday and has come to visit you today!"
Chen Renfu said happily: "Haha, the brat is finally back! Not bad, not bad. Although he is thinner and darker, he looks much more energetic!"
Li Cuihua took Ye Zhiqiu's hand and said happily, "Good boy, come and sit down. Yimin said last week that you should be back. I never thought that after just a few days, you would really come back!"
Ye Zhiqiu smiled and said, "I was supposed to come yesterday, but was delayed by something, so I came today. Are you two in good health?"
"Well, old man, I eat a lot and sleep well, so there's no big problem."
"I'm old, and these are just minor problems, nothing serious."
Ye Zhiqiu chatted with the three of them, picking out some things to talk about. He also explained that he had made some small contributions and that after his transfer, he would probably continue to work at the brewery and follow his master uncle.
The three of them were very happy. Chen Renfu looked at the fresh pork belly on the table and said with a smile, "Did you go out to build your network yesterday? Good boy, you are really amazing!
"I just returned to the city and I can get such good stuff. Even Yimin is having a hard time getting a few pounds of pork, but you got it easily!"
Ye Zhiqiu said with a smile: "Thanks to Master, the people who were dealing in things before have recovered some of the food, so we can still get a little bit of food. But the overall environment is so difficult, if we want more, we really can't afford it."
There was no need for him to explain this matter, everyone knew what was going on. But even in this situation, someone who could still get the meat was truly capable!
Ye Zhiqiu chatted with them for a long time, and the three of them wanted to keep him for dinner. He smiled and said to himself, "I really want to have dinner with you all!
But if I don't go visit my partner again, I'm afraid the duck will fly away before it's cooked! So forget it this time, next time I will accompany the two elders to dinner and have a drink with my master uncle.
When they heard that he was going to see his girlfriend, they couldn't force him to stay for dinner, so they told him to come over and sit with them more often when he was free.
After Ye Zhiqiu left, he rode his bicycle to Nanluoguxiang. His two masters were at work, but his master's wife was at home, so he had to deliver something to her.
A master brought two bottles of wine and a pound of pork. Ye Zhiqiu soon arrived at the compound at No. 136 Nanluoguxiang. Li Bicheng lived in the front yard. He knocked on the door and Qian Aidi quickly opened it.
Seeing that it was Ye Zhiqiu, there was another round of pleasantries, but Ye Zhiqiu did not stay for long. He just said that he was in a hurry to send the master off and had to rush to his girlfriend's house, so he could only talk next time.
Arriving at the middle courtyard of the 153 tenement where Wang Lei lived, Ye Zhiqiu knocked on the door and saw Mei Hehua. After presenting the gifts to her, he hurriedly left, saying that he had to go to his girlfriend's house.
The two wives, including the master, understood. Finding a good partner was Ye Zhiqiu's most important task, and they also hoped that Ye Zhiqiu could get married soon!
After Ye Zhiqiu delivered the things, he took the ingredients and rushed to Feng Xiaomei's house.
She has class at four o'clock today, so now is a good time to go there. I don't have to wait for her to go home and come down to pick me up.
However, when Ye Zhiqiu arrived, Feng Xiaomei was already waiting in the guard room.
"Xiaomei, why are you back so early? It's only ten minutes past four!"
"It's much faster to catch an elder's car than to take the bus."
