Chapter 42 Showing Off?
you can figure out how to get the ingredients for today's noon meal delivered to me in advance."Liu Ran quickly took off the apron around her waist and tucked a stray strand of hair behind her ear, mu...Before He Yuzhu could even open his mouth, Yu Li spoke first.
"Hey He Yu Zhu, what do you have in your hands"
It's a hot day, and the young woman is dressed more lightly. She wears a white blouse with a floral pattern on top and sky-blue pants below, which highlight her round hip dip.
Well, she really does look younger!
He Yuzhu smiled and said, "It's because of the rescue last night that the factory awarded me as an advanced model and gave some material rewards."
"Oh, there's white flour and meat! How nice!"
At this, Li said with envy, "I really am envious! At Old Yan's place, I might not even get a few meals of meat in a whole year, let alone a bag of white flour. Just looking at these portions, they would be enough for my father-in-law to have three Chinese New Year feasts!"
Moreover, He Yuzhu still eats public food, and his husband Yan Jiecheng has no fixed job until now. He goes wherever he can find temporary work. A month's salary is at most fifteen yuan. After paying for the meal expenses, how much is left in his hands
"Isn't this the Third Master's personal carriage How come you're using it today"
Yu Li pouted: "Today it's Xian Cheng's turn to go to Zuo Jiazhuang to exchange sweet potatoes. It's inconvenient to travel back and forth, so this car... I'll borrow it."
The young woman's heart ached a little. This car was supposedly borrowed, but it actually cost money, one penny per ride, an internal price.
Though the money had to be spent, the long journey back and forth meant that without this trusty vehicle, one's legs would have been worn thin. Besides, she had already ridden it back home to her parents, so it wasn't entirely a loss!
He Yuzhu silently reached out and made a gesture of six.
If you want to live a good life, then the third master is the one to go to.
One jin of national grain tickets could be exchanged for four jin of sweet potatoes at Lefangzhuang. That's not bad, but judging by Yu Li's tone, the bicycle wasn't just used in vain, huh How much wool did she shear, inside and out
If you don't agree, just try it!
"Hey What do you mean by that" Yu Li looked at He Yuzhu's gesture, a little confused.
He Yuzhu waved his hand, changing the subject: "Let's not talk about that. By the way, last night your brother Jiecheng almost got into a fight with Xu Damai. I didn't expect him to be so tough."
Upon hearing this, Yu Li couldn't help but roll her eyes and say, "Where This is just because he's drunk. If he were sober, he wouldn't even be able to speak properly!"
Only his wife would know what kind of person Yan Jie really is.
Since marrying into the Yan family, her in-laws have made things difficult for her and her husband, both overtly and subtly.
He's always getting the short end of the stick in his marriage. He can't even muster a sound when he gets beaten with three sticks.
As soon as she thought of this, Yu Li felt even more that this man was unreliable. In the future, if she wanted to live a good life, she had to work hard herself and couldn't rely on this spineless man for everything!
.........
The two of them walked back, chatting and laughing. As they reached the corner of the alley, they saw a crowd gathered in front of the courtyard gate from afar.
"Column, you're finally back!"
Yi Zhonghai skillfully pulled He Yuzhu to his side. With a smile, he addressed Wang Fengxia, the street director wearing a plain shirt: "Director Wang, you see, this matter has actually been commended within our factory. We even awarded him as an advanced individual!"
Lao Yi and Tong Zhi felt that He Yuzhu really put himself out there today. Originally, he was planning to organize a grand meeting for the neighbors in the courtyard to commend this kid, but an official from the Street Office came early with a certificate.
Wang Fengxia spoke very directly: “The factory is the factory, and the street is the street, two different things.”
Don't think that the person is speaking harshly or being presumptuous by comparing a street to a military camp. It's because they are confident.
The neighborhood committee in Sijiu City is different from other places. Wang Fengxia, the head of the committee, is a full-fledged official at the department level. She's in charge of this entire area, including even the police station!
The staff at the neighborhood committee were efficient. In a short while, He Yuzhu had a certificate in his hand, and on top of his own doorframe was also a small blue plaque that read "Advanced Family".
And that wasn't all, the Street Office also gave him a separate award of material goods: a three-jin carp, a bottle of yellow peach canned fruit, a jin of cooking oil, and some dried goods.
The onlookers all looked on with envy.
Look at that, good deeds are rewarded! This He Yuzhu bravely jumped in the water to save someone, and now he's reaping all the benefits.
Given this situation, it won't be long before the matchmaker comes knocking, will it
Jia Zhang's triangular eyes widened in fury, her liver aching with rage. What a damn injustice! The heavens are blind to let this scoundrel get away with it!!!
Hmph! You can't even eat the fish and meat in your own mouth, they're all sour and stinky!
After Wang Fengxia and the staff from the neighborhood committee walked away, Yi Zhonghai, as the patriarch of the courtyard, cleared his throat twice before starting his performance.
"Since everyone is here, there's no need to hold a full-院 meeting! Zhuzi did a great job on this matter and deserves praise!"
"Just now, Director Ren Wang's attitude was very clear. As long as everyone in the hospital keeps working hard, the title of 'Advanced Four Courtyard' will definitely still belong to our courtyard this year!"
Once the speech was finished, it was met with thunderous applause.
Second Uncle Liu Haizhong and Third Uncle Yan Fugui also said a few words.
In the crowd, Lou Xia'e's beautiful eyes sparkled with excitement.
This bad guy, yesterday evening he was talking so casually about it, until today when he was leaving the hospital and going to the bathroom, he accidentally overheard how dangerous his rescue process was.
And he is a child of the Da Qian family!
Really, you could at least be clear about what you're saying!
Looking at the young woman's "grieving" eyes, He Yuzhu couldn't help but feel happy.
Well, the steel mill is showing a movie today. That's considered employee benefits, I suppose. Xu Damao won't be back until very late then. Well, if that's the case, I won't be polite!
.........
In the backyard, an elderly deaf woman leaned on her cane and listened as He Yuzhu recounted his experience saving someone last night.
The old woman trembled and cautioned, “Good grandson, just hearing about it sent chills down my spine. Please don't act so recklessly in the future.”
If you die, who will cook for you then
He Yuzhu kneaded the fish fillets with his hands while smiling and replying, "Okay, don't worry, there won't be any mistakes. I have it all figured out!"
"Look at me, I'm fine now, aren't I Besides, there's no need to worry. If we don't do this, we won't have any hot pot fish today!"
Lou Xia'e, who was picking vegetables by the side, couldn't help but purse her lips when she heard this: "Yes, yes, yes, you're the most capable person in the world! What are you showing off for The old woman is just worried about you!"e grain depot every month, life became a struggle. If there was someone in the family who worked at the factory, they still had to exchange part of their ration tickets at the grain depot so that they...
